Somebody (Depeche Mode)
revised for female version
I want somebody to share
Share the rest of my life
Share my innermost thoughts
Know my intimate details
Someone who'll stand by my side
And give me support
And in return
He'll get my support
He will listen to me
When I want to speak
About the world we live in
And life in general
Though my views may be wrong
They may even be perverted
He'll hear me out
And won't easily be converted
To my way of thinking
In fact He'll often disagree
But at the end of it all
He will understand me
I want somebody who cares
For me passionately
With every thought and
With every breath
Someone who'll help me see things
In a different light
All the things I detest
I will almost like
I don't want to be tied
To anyone's strings
I'm carefully trying to steer clear of
Those things
But when I'm asleep
I want somebody
Who will put their arms around me
And kiss me tenderly
Though things like this
Make me sick
In a case like this
I'll get away with it

a toxic week
our project was due last friday, and we expected the database to be ready monday last week. but our very kind db person in seattle gave it to us friday. the deadline cant be moved so we have to squeeze in work for a supposedly 5-working day into one or two days at the most. haay naku.. as expected, there are still open issues not yet resolved till yesterday. changes to specs are still made today. this is what you call fast-development *lolz* it's a good thing that my team is not like the 'showbiz' team, thanks to God :)

I Know Him So Well
Written by B Andersson/T Rice/B Ulvaeus
Nothing is so good it lasts eternally
Perfect situations must go wrong
But this has never yet prevented me
Wanting far too much for far too long
Looking back I could have played it differently
Won a few more moments, who can tell
But it took time to understand the man
Now at least I know I know him well
Wasn't it good
Oh so good
Wasn't he fine
Oh so fine
Isn't it madness
He can't be mine
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me
More security
He needs his fantasy and freedom
I know him so well
No one in your life is with you constantly
No one is completely on your side
And though I move my world to be with him
Still the gap between us is too wide
Looking back I could have played it differently
(Looking back I could have played things some other way)
Learned about the man before I fell
(I was just a little careless maybe)
But I was ever so much younger then
(Much younger then)
Now at least I know him well
Now at least I know I know him well
Wasn't it good
Oh so good
Wasn't he fine
Oh so fine
Isn't it madness
He won't be mine
Didn't I know how it would go
If I knew from the start
Why am I falling apart
Wasn't it good, wasn't he fine
Isn't it madness
He won't be mine
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me
More security
He needs his fantasy and freedom
I know him so well
It took time to understand him
I know him so well
Nothing is so good it lasts eternally
Perfect situations must go wrong
But this has never yet prevented me
Wanting far too much for far too long
Looking back I could have played it differently
Won a few more moments, who can tell
But it took time to understand the man
Now at least I know I know him well
Wasn't it good
Oh so good
Wasn't he fine
Oh so fine
Isn't it madness
He can't be mine
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me
More security
He needs his fantasy and freedom
I know him so well
No one in your life is with you constantly
No one is completely on your side
And though I move my world to be with him
Still the gap between us is too wide

nagdaang week-end
nagkasakit ang mommy ng nakaraang biyernes. noong sabado ay nagpunta kami sa ospital. dun ay ininjectionan sya ng duvine (spell check) at dahil sa epekto ng gamot ay panandalian syang nakatulog. mga 930 na ng gabi yun. nang sya ay magising ay mabigat ang kanyang katawan at hindi sya makakilos. mga 12 ng hatinggabi ay gusto na nyang umuwi bagama't nanghihina pa rin sya. mabuti na lang at malapit lang ang kapilya, at maaasahan ang mga SCAN na tumupad sa gabing yun, tinulungan nila kami at inihatid sa aming tahanan. linggo ay nagpunta ang kapatid ko upang samahan ang aking ina habang ako ay tumutupad at sumasamba. maraming salamat at kahit paano ay hindi Nya kami pinababayaan. sa kasalukuyan ay nagpapalakas na lang ang aking ina.
kahapon naman ay dumating na ang trabahong aming hinihintay. mejo toxic ang linggong ito at gaya ng inaasahan ay rush ang pinapagawa sa amin.

You plan ahead, and are interested in beauty, design, outward appearance, and symmetry.
You are a shy, idealistic person who does not find it easy to have relationships, especially intimate ones.
You are affectionate, passionate, expressive, and future-oriented.
You are a talkative person, maybe even a busybody!
You enjoy life in your own way and do not depend on the opinions of others.

Jeepneys to cut fares by P.50 starting Feb. 10
SOME 40,000 jeepneys in Metro Manila will cut fares by 50 centavos from Feb. 10 to 17 to offer the public some form of relief amid increasing commodity prices, according to transport groups and the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB).
From Friday this week to Friday next week, commuters will only pay a minimum jeepney fare of P7 instead of P7.50.
The temporary fare cut is a special feature in the celebration of the first-ever Jeepney Week in Metro Manila.
The 50-centavo fare cut may become permanent in March if diesel prices stabilize at about P32 a liter, said LTFRB Chair Maria Elena Bautista.
But jeepney groups said that if diesel prices hit P35 a liter, they may ask for a P1 to P1.50 increase in minimum fares.

On This Day
one of the songs i want to be sung on my wedding day (kelan kaya yun? or darating pa kaya yun? *lol*)
Artist: David Pomeranz
Here we stand today
Like we always dreamed
Starting out our live together
Night is in your eyes
Love is in our hearts
I can't believe you really mine forever
(Bridge)
I feel rehearse in for this moment in all my life
So don't act surprise
If the feelings start to carry me away
(Chorus)
On this day
I promise forever
On this day
I surrendered my heart
Here I stand take my hand
And I will follow every word that i say
On this day
Not so long ago
This heart is just a fill of golden lonely space
Without you
Now everything's all right
Now everything's refill
And the story of my life
Is all about YOU
So if you feel the cold winds
blowing through your nights
I will shelter you and forever
here that tears your fear away
Repeat Chorus
Repeat Bridge
Repeat Chorus with one fret higher

Lagi Mo Na Lang Ako Dinededma
Rocksteddy
Mahal kita pero di mo lang alam
Hindi mo alam kasi hindi mo naman ako tinitignan
Ayaw mo naman itanong sakin kasi baka nga naman hindi naman ikaw
At hindi ko rin naman sayo sasabihin kasi ayoko pa sa ngayon na manligaw
Mahal kita pero hindi nga lang halata
Hindi halata kasi wala naman akong ginagawa
Hindi ako kumikibo hindi ako nagsasalita wala
Pero hindi ako torpe
Hindi ko lang talaga masabi sayo ng harapan
Mahal kita pero dehins mo pa rin ramdam
Hindi mo ko titignan di rin kita titgnan
Lagi mo lang akong pakikiramdaman lagi rin kitang pakikiramdaman
At araw araw tayong magdededmahan
Hanggang sa tayo ay magkabistuhan
Pero ngayong malapit nang matapos ang kanta ko
Nais kong magkaalaman na
Nais kong ako na rin ang magsabi sayo ng harapan
Kasi alam kong doon din naman ang tuloy nyan
At dalawa din lang naman ang posibleng sagot dyan oo o hindi
Kaya eto na sasabihin ko na para matapos na
At hindi na magka–tsismisan pa
Sasabihin ko na para wala nang problema
At para hindi na rin kayong lahat nabibitin pa
Mahal kita pero di mo lang alam
Hindi mo alam kasi hindi mo naman ako tinitignan
Ayaw mo naman itanong sakin kasi baka nga naman hindi naman ikaw
At hindi ko rin naman sayo sasabihin kasi ayoko pa sa ngayon na manligaw
Mahal kita pero hindi nga lang halata

Color Everywhere
Youth Asylum
Use to seen black and white
never any in between
waiting all the love of my life
to come into my dreams
everything is shades of gray
never any blues or green
needing someone else to turn to
someone who could help me learn and see
all the beauty that was waiting for me
You,you put the blue back in the sky
you put the rainbow in my eyes
a silver lining in my prayer
and now theres color everywhere
you put the red back in the rose
just when i needed it the most
you came along to show you care
and theres color everywhere, everwhere
My life is so protect and bold
never in a mystery
but ever since you shine the light
all of that history and now I have a hand to hold
all the reasons to believe,Yes.
If someone in my life was worth living for
I was hangin' around just wishing all is done
To put the happiness back in my heart
And you,you put the blue back in the sky
you put the rainbow in my eyes
a silver lining in my prayer
and now theres color everywhere
you put the red back in the rose
just when i needed it the most
you came along to show you care
and now theres color everywhere
a silver lining in my prayer
and now theres color everywhere
Left those hazy days behind me
never to return again
now they're just a faded memory
ohh…ohh….
Cuz baby its all so clear to see
The beauty that is waiting there for me
You,you put the blue back in the sky
you put the rainbow in my eyes
a silver lining in my prayer
and now theres color everywhere
you put the red back in the rose
just when i needed it the most
you came along to show me you care

WHY CAN'T IT BE
Rannie Raymundo
You came along, unexpectedly
I was doing fine in my little world
Oh baby please don't get me wrong
'Cause I'm not complaining
But you see, you got my mind spinning
REFRAIN:
Why can't it be
Why can't it be the two of us
Why can't we be lovers
Only friends
You came along
At a wrong place, at a wrong time
Or was it me
Baby I dream of you every minute
You're in my dreams
You're always in it
That's the only place I know
Where you could be mine
And I'm yours but only
Till I wake up
REFRAIN:
Why can't it be
Why can't it be the two of us
Why can't we be lovers
Only friends
You came along
At a wrong place, at a wrong time
You came along
At a wrong place, at a wrong time
Or was it me
Narito
Gary Valenciano
narito, ang puso ko
inaalay lamang sa'yo
aking pangarap kahit saglit
ang ikaw at ako'y magkapiling
minsan pang makita ka
damdamin ay sumasaya
lungkot napapawi
buhay ko'y ngingiti
sa sandaling pag-ibig mo'y makapiling
puso ko'y narito
naghihintay sa pag-ibig mo
ikaw lamang ang inaasam
tanggapin mo ang puso kong narito
hanggang matapos ang kailanman
bawat kilos mo't galaw
minamasdan, tinatanaw
laging nangangarap, kahit saglit
ang ikaw at ako'y magkapiling
puso ko'y narito
naghihintay sa pag-ibig mo
ikaw lamang ang inaasam
tanggapin mo ang puso kong narito
hanggang matapos ang kailanman
kahit di malaman o maintindihan
kahit na masugatan ang puso
naghihintay sayo
maghihintay ako
puso ko'y narito
naghihintay sa pag-ibig mo
ikaw lamang ang inaasam
tanggapin mo ang puso kong narito
hanggang matapos ang kailanman
nah.. just feeling hopeless

corporate acronyms
my first telecon with this company was held yesterday at 9am philippine time, 5pm seattle time. it was ok, after some introductions, we discussed the upcoming projects to be done here. then, after the telecon, scott, sir kit, james and i have a wrapping-up meeting, where we also talked about some of the common acronyms used here. WSI which is used largely means Web System Interface, though I always referred to this as GUI or graphical user interface before. Scott used to work at Intel and they have their TLA database where TLA stands for Three-Letter Acronym. then, they also have GOST meetings and SNAFU situations. For the meaning of these terms? just ask me privately :p
