Here's The Plan

"Okay, here's the plan. You blindfold him, we tie him up, gag him and throw him into the sea."

"No? You're right, we can't carry him all the way to the sea."

"Okay, maybe we could do this. You blindfold him, we tie him up, and you chop off all his fingers. Then we throw his fingers into the sea!"

"No? Then what?"

"Oh come on Gebu, you're not helping."

A Piece Of You

Love is fear
Love is dear
Love is to be holding you near

Love is close
Sweet smelling rose
Love is to be above of all woes

A sonnet over tragedy
A poem of memory
A picture inside of me

A wholesome potion
Of every notion
Ever reckless emotions

An aching kiss
Almost amiss

The Hardest Choice

My Book Report

Sweet Valley Twins
Title: Todd Runs Away
Author: Jamie Suzanne
Publisher: Bantam Books
Date Published: March 1994
Number of Pages: 136

Todd Wilkins, Elizabeth Wakefields' sort-of-boyfriend was the school's basketball team's star. His dad was also a basketball player when he was in school but a knee injury had made going professional impossible. Thus, Todd's dad was rooting for his son to live his dream, to one day be a professional basketball player. Todd himself liked basketball, although sometimes he felt pressured by his dad. His expected nothing less than perfection. When Todd was chosen by their teacher to attend a creative-writing class, his first thought was to drop out of the class so he could have more time practising his foul shots. After much persuasion from Elizabeth he decided to go for the first class before calling it quits. He was very surprised that the class was fun and exciting, and the teacher, Mark Ramirez, thought he was the most talented in the class. Mark Ramirez taught the class that the most important essence in creative writing is to have a real tough decision to be made by the character. Todd portrayed his tough decision between playing basketball and his new passion in writing. Todd finally got caught up between the two when his performance in basketball dropped, and his dad kept accusing him that the team's lost was his fault because he did not practice enough. Pressured, Todd decided to run away. But Elizabeth found out about his plans and told his dad about it. His dad realized that he was expecting too much out of him and allowed him to make his own decision. His decision was to do both, write and play basketball. And then they live happily ever after.


What tough decision did you have to face today? Or yesterday? Or tomorrow?

Oh, Woe Is Me.

(I'm missing someone, and that someone is you. Yes you.)

When there's so much you can't say
When there's pain over astray
When the who and the be
and the biggest fat crazy

then the biggest fat maybe.

And a whole of I'm sorry.

A 3-day Sleep, Non For Keeps

I had the longest sleep. And with that sleep, came the weirdest dream. There were hostels or was it a hotel, friends, lovers, siblings, cousins, mountain tops, long drive home, toilet stops, running water, janitors, bags, and back to the hostels, or was it a hotel, and a small car.

Then came part II. Long drives, families, parents, aunties, cousins, barbecues, chickens, water, holy water, swimming suits and Jeram Toi.

I told you, it was weird.
