Fighting!

Pulling an all-nighter.  Dear final paper, take this! Hmmpp!

Mission

On a mission (again)... Need to change course or basically re-write this fucking research paper.  So once and for all, let's do this!  Universe, please send all brain power my way. Thank you.

This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine

Doing this 20-page paper is really tough.  I think it's psychological.... because when I say that it's tough, I'm referring to having the discipline to simply write.  Heck, I'm posting an entry on my blog instead.... why this?  I dunno.

I know what I want to write, I just want someone else to write it for me.  I have the concept, some ideas and a somewhat weak outline but I already know that it's going to be a great paper!  Paging Universe!  Do you copy?  And yes, I'm procrastinating.  So at one o'clock in the morning, I am trying very hard to fire this engine up!  C'mon brain!  Let's do this!

You Are My Sunshine

You are my sunshine
My only sunshine
You make me happy
When skies are grey
You never know, dear
How much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away

Hidden Away

I just finished watching a movie called Hidden Away and I don't think I've ever cried like I did a few minutes ago.  I am completely overwhelmed.  Without spoiling it or giving it away, there's one particular scene that was tremendously beautiful...real.....and perfect that it took me to a place that I haven't felt in such a long time.  I am in love with love (shocker).

Below is the link to the trailer which doesn't do justice as to what the movie is really about (in my opinion) but rent it if you can.  I think you will like it and might put things in perspective.

$3 water

I get businesses need to make profit but what's so special about this $3.21 water? 

Filippo

Found this video and suddenly, I miss my dear friend Filippo! He sent this surprise video for my birthday last year (thanks to balisi for coordinating) which made me realize, he forgot my birthday this year.  Hmmm, the nerve! Although I haven't seen him in two years and we can email or text each other, it's not the same as if he is here. I wish you well, Filo! Good luck with your studies! Hope to see you soon here in NYC or there in (al)Italia.  Lol.  Miss u much. 

You Belong To Me

Goodbye, Laundromat

I'm quite sad that the laundromat that I have been going to for the past seven years is closing!  When I walked in there this morning, not knowing anything about the closure, I saw this sign.  It's weird how I felt a bit attached to this place.  =(

Notes at 2 am

The problem with writing an academic paper at 2 am is that ......

Zzzzzz....

...the brain just doesn't work but at the same time, I'm hungry.  What is wrong with me?

Not only that, I'm craving for Filipino food.  I haven't had Filipino food in a long time.  

Lord help me.
