I joined an essay writng contest today

so this is my very first time to join a contest like this, as you see. i was really not so excited about it but, i enjoyed it,
I'm not expecting to win. but to gain experience instead.
the University Library was the venue of it...
there were lots of people and its hard to concentrate on what you are doing..

and i think joining a contest like this is punk rock!
learning cool stuff and expressing your feelings.


this are elvish texts
i am fan of LOTR you know
Tolkien is a genius

Reaction:

you know what? i really like this movie., just saw it today., it was released in 1998 and yet i had seen it a mere 2 hours ago. in my girlfriends house. it was all so good and i was so touched by it. Robin Williams really did a great job there. i was crying at the climax of it, this movie definitely will be on my list of favorite movies promise! the story is so nice! i merely could not express what i feel now but im trying, with this movie., ive been enlightened., in many ways possible, that life is short. and that hell is terrifying, and i dont want to be there no way! i love my family, and i need to love them as long as i live... cause after all. its just a heartbeat in heaven, this life.......

You left

You left


All alone in this dim room you left me
its hard to breathe now cause you are away
we had shared our plans and life to be
And now's a new phase, a look of dismay
How sharped thy words that stabbed my heart to death
Love has been so kind, yet wise to break free
up here stucked in my thoughts, paining my breath
a shattered piece of china you and me
please dont put a period to our story
im still holdin on to a piece of hope
yes! its really hard to say sorry
trying to fight back the call of the rope
you are the one who spoiled our love today
oh my love i have nothing else to say

Balut

Balut

It is protected by a calcite shell
inside is a mass of living tissue
it has originated from one cell
Soaked in fluid, provides its food issue
Cracking the shell id the way to eat it
start at the blunt pole and suck the juice out
then enjoy the flesh after you sip it
a savory tastes that pleasures the mouth
Eighteen days is all it take to prepare
and it is an art that requires no luck
you boil the egg and handle it with care
How i pity the fragile unborn duck
this is the fate of the Balut duckling
its way swimming in the stomach lining

Nirvana

NIRVANA

The taking away of worldly pleasures
known and renowned in a five year journey
their contribution cannot be measured
they; the pillars influenced me greatly
in my thoughts they brought me under the bridge
gave me freedom to express who i am
Physically poor but mentally rich
maybe i am less a man without them
Painters of truth; songs of the century
Being hypocrites; never mind atleast
Pioneers of grunge; solid melody
My musical heroes Kurt, Dave and Krist
I believe it was a golden era
Deep within me the soul of Nirvana

Animating dreams

In Musicia

Lost in time the songs of my grandfather
pioneers of melody, soul and art
imbued in him the phantom and master
his gentleness hid a sore hardened heart
who stays late at night to make artful hymns
echo's of sound contaminates the place
the creatures go dancing; Cherubs and Imps
melancholy triumphs in sinful grace
armed only with bony slender fingers
six tin strings push themselves against the flesh
until the blood was drawn and pain lingers
Alas! the masterpiece is on the sketch
superficial is the world we live in
Artists live in a world we've never seen

Shinobi movie analysis

Shinobi centers on the drama resulting from the war between two ninja clans in the early part of the Tokugawa era. In the film, Nakama Yukie portrays Oboro, the granddaughter of Ogen (Lily), the respected Iga clan matriarch, while Odagiri Jo plays Gennosuke, the son of Danjo Koga (Minoru Terada), the powerful Koga clan leader. While living deep within the mountains, the two ninja clans have honed their skills to superhuman levels. Unfortunately, the clans do not get along and are forbidden by imperial decree from sharing their techniques with each other. Viewing the two ninja clans as a threat to his scheme for total domination, the nefarious Nankobo Tenkai (Ishibashi Renji) plots to intensify the rivalry between the two clans. Nakobo creates a contest in which the clans are forced to choose five of their best warriors to participate. The battle, however, isn't just a friendly contest - it's a duel to the death!


when i was staying in my girlfriends place, i came up with this movie DVD Shinobi.,
i red the plot and ive become interested in it, so i turned on their tv and DVD player and watched, the storyplot is so interesting i keep reading it over and ever again and i was never dissapointed.at first,you can see lovers theyve met in a stream and proposed for a marriage but was torn between conflicts, there is too much action,with their superhuman talents and arts as assasins jnown to them as ninjas. for me, it was a great movie! i love the two protagonists, Oboro and gennosuke, their struggle for love, even though they live differently, in two ninja tribes hidden in the mountains, their love for each other is the clear manifestation of overcoming indiferrences. the story revolves around two tribes who have been in war for over 400 years., but had in peace, and is now being close to bloodshed, by ruthless rulers of the lowlands, they wanted the ninja tribes be exterminated,, but love came out triumphant in the battle of superhuman shinobi's
the movie ends in a tragic way., you know what? when the movie ended, i try to fight back the tears., it was so tragic! i cried T_T., oboro lost her powers and lived the rest of her life loveless, how sad.,

this is a must see movie.,

Winning is not at all important

of what it seems to be a prestigious event, a table tennis tournament that every table tennis player is willing to join, the determinant of greatness among players in our province, the gathering of diverse culture, the union of separated brothers and sisters of our homeland, all in one game that started it all.,, in the three days grace that we've journeyed, the perspirations, muscle cramps, backaches, headaches and blistered sore toes and other parts of the body.weve taken them all, the mental teasers ive been, all came out honored and flown with flying colors like the vintas of zamboanga,after all the toil ive got the ever elusive 2nd place in this tourney ruled by older men, dominating all over armed with their experience and veterans psychology., and ive proven my worth to them. every ounce of strength not wasted for me, every ligament almost torn and cruel exhaustion,. i thought everything is forever this way., all the people thier posed their menacing features. some silent like a deep river, some are like volcanoes echoing., the gym were at, its like humongous, its not like that im ignoramus or something,its just its a big piece of concrete, the place was quiet until we came and took over the floor, its slippery and not pleasant to play with
every game played was not wasted, it feels good winning, and it feels not that bad when losing., but its much better to win (chuckles). in each game, im with myself, hearing the beating of my own heart inside of me, doing right decisions i must take with lightning speed at once or else ill get eaten alive by 0ldermen, in each game i played, it all becomes clear and present to me, the art of winning and finishing ones opponent before they can back with their momentum., oh it feels so good. feels so nice felt good, feel good, no regrets at all. after the day was done, i sat alone in my cognitive thinking garden, reflecting and thinking, like im wasnt like the great thinkers before, but certainly thinking. reflecting and thinking hard.,
and suddenly i came up with one essential point of view and a principle, then i thought of the people im with, with that tourney. the faces that ive saw and looked at me as a person, the eyes that saw my soul, one that did not deprived his/her hand.
the tongue that gave advises and morale, the people im with all the way., the friends
and the people ive met, they've been so good to me and i thank the good lord for bringing me unto them., ive been to selfish for myself., and these people here., made me.wat i am now,growing boy, who used to be a child, thus, i will never disappoint them, for whatever ive learned to them, ill take and cherish., and i hope they'll stay the same, maybe not forever because life is a constant change, but for times we humans need each other, the complexity of us, made us unique.like no man will never be an island, and thats the thing that struck me., and with you friends, winning the tourney is not the most important thing. but the things that matters most is the friendship you've garnered and the learnings of life you've taken. i believe

Pingpong Blood in me

as you can see my dear friends.,
ive been in the business for almost 6 years na
ive seen action, a lot of them
and i can say that im still growing, you know what im saying?
this past week, was a pingpong tour for me.,
ive traveled far just to play a game i loved since then,
this game is fast paced and needs determination and concentration
to at least stay erected.,lol
pingpong really boosts your mental capacities, coz not only it keeps you thinking
it also tease your brains with techniques and strategies and keeps you physically fit
and healthy, just like the ever popular badminton,
i must admit that this is a quite expensive game.,
its a plus point if you have goos equipment and orientation
im pretty much challenged each and everyttime we play outside the town
nd being varsity is not a big joke,,
you must commit yourself
in return to the benefits you get from the school.
everytime i see me dancing in the pingpong court..
i laugh at my self., for quite no reason at all.
this blood is runnin through me and for what i can see.
i will carry on this, until my one last breath.
