I Have You
I have always been a dreamer
Followed visions of my own
I was born to belong
To the lines of a song
And make them my home
I believe in happy endings
Though I've only known a few
For as rare as they are
Like a bright falling star
I found one in you
Sometimes All the world can seem so
Friendless
And the road ahead so
Endless
And the dream so far away
Sometimes
When I'll almost
To surrender
Then I stop
And I remember
I have you
To save my day
Often my imagination
Has me reaching out too far
When I fell you were there
With your hand in the air
You knew from the start
Sometimes
After all you've done
To save me
Thru the love you freely
Gave me
Every step along the way
Going
And in truth, it comes from
Knowing
I have you
To save my day
Sometime
Feeling helpless
When I held you
Wishing words would come
To tell you
I have you
To save my day

Why I went to the Movie Theather
"I want to watch in movie theaters because I want to sing our National Anthem!"
Moved by the article written by Isagani Cruz, of the Philippine Daily Inquirer dated today, May 15, 2005 on not singing the National Anthem in moviehouses and Duty Free Shops, well, me I want to sing it! I recently watched "Can This Be Love" in Market Market and we were on the last full show, they normally play it on the last show, we were only 4 or 6 people in the cinema. We were eating Greenwich pizza, chicken and spaghetti when it was played. Irwin do not want to stand up. We were holding this big styro with food and we have to stand up. I stood up, I sang, it was new, now this is by the Hukbong Pangdagat, so Philippine Marines were shown. =) Everybody else was standing honoring the National Anthem. So far, I never encountered anybody not standing while the National Anthem was being played. Well, maybe once because they were foreigners, someone asked them to stand up. They stood up.
Why do I stand up? Because, I do not want to wait for the time when singing the National Anthem would get me killed. I want to sing it freely, like a real Filipino. Back in high school, I was given a chance to sing the anthem, to lead everybody in singing it. It felt good, though I missed some notes.
I liked it when Lani Misalucha sang it in the Pacquiao Boxing in Las Vegas. I feel proud to be a Filipino.
Was it the location? Filipinos in Duty Free Paranaque and moviehouses in the same area do not stand up when the Lupang Hinirang was played? Was it the social status? well, we frequently watch at Eastwood and Shangrila but I never encountered it. Everybody was respectful of the National Anthem. People going to this cinema are rich because they can afford it, well, they are well mannered but I do not know why people in Duty Free Shops in Paranaque do not stand up.
do not want to sing any other National Anthem. I only want Lupang Hinirang, whether in Tagalog, English or Spanish. I know it and I can sing it.

My Gown
I went to Bagong Ilog to get my Wedding Banns permission from the parish priest of my church. I never had a chance to pass by the C5 road, because my office is in Ortigas. I love passing by C5, because that is the only time I can see my gown shown in the display window of LINOI's shop. I looked at it longingly, remembering the time I tried it on. Everybody outside was looking at me, inside trucks, cars, even buses, they looked at me in the traffic.
I felt beautiful, I never thought a single wedding gown could make you more beautiful. I've lost some weight becuase of the pressure my job brings. I do not have to worry losing weight, I am losing it naturally.
I can't wait till my next fitting, by then, maybe I'd bring my veil, trail and a simple flower boquet to complete that bridal look.
