Brave the weather!~



We work in an English center for Koreans. During bad weather, whether it be raining cats and dogs. We're required to go to school. Brave the weather!

We went to school even if the Department of Education declared "no classes" in all levels. We have our own world.

*My co-teacher Daphne & Cherrie in our MEETING/TOEIC room. Enjoying a hearty free lunch (KENTUCKY FRIED CHICKEN) courtesy of our Korean boss.^^

Rain Outside My Window...

I took this photo this afternoon. It's raining cats & dogs... Getting quite sentimental again. As the rain pours outside my window(actually, our school window ㅋㅋ)... I see a rainbow ahead.

Life goes on...

I believe in you

~I Believe in You~

I always thought that life was sad
For someone who's not free
I felt the chains binding me
from the things I want to see

When you came you changed it all
I've never felt the same
I hate the thought of losing you
There's so much more to give

*I believe in love
I believe in you
I believe in everything
The two of us can do

I believe in miracles
I've seen them all come true
So won't you take a chance with me
Cause I believe in you

One night I looked upon the stars
And saw one shining bright
Guiding me through all the times
When nothing would seem right

Now I've come to realize
There's no else for me
Cause after all the pain I felt
You've come to set me free

그대 지금

그대 지금

Come now inside my heart,
You're telling me about love
I pray that this isn't a dream
My heart keeps telling me that i shouldn't let go of you and that i should be greedy..
it's saying stuff that's stupid

Your love that came accidently..
it wasn't strange at all
But I didn't know that our promised relationship/fate/destiny would become love..
Sometime later, I have to send you away..
but I don't have the confidence to do that
You found the place that I was alone at..
Now you're gonna go back
I knew it was going to happen,
but why does my heart hurt?

Now you're gonna go back to your place cuz' you found the love you wanted
I have to send you, a happy/bliss person,
away with a smile
You tell me about Love while lookin into my eyes, but it's a lightly passing by (small/grazing) love

I'm so happy right now,
it's like i'm dreaming a dream
Now you know that from the beginning we were in love
You found the place that I was alone at..
Now you're gonna go back

I knew it was going to happen,
but why does my heart hurt?
Now you're gonna go back to your place
cuz' you found the love you wanted
I need to send you, a happy/bliss person, away with a smile

I don’t wanna say goodbye to you and I don’t wanna let you go.
Can't you give me your love,
Can you really not
Is it Impossible?

But now I love you so much...

Song of the Moment: Dream Of Me

I'm a little tired... but over all my day is ok. I've got reason to smile and look forward to tomorrow...

Dream Of Me

Let me sleep
For when I sleep I dream that you are here
You're mine
and all my fears are left behind

I float on air,
the nightingale sings gentle lullaby
So let me close my eyes

And sleep perchance to dream
So I can see the face I long to touch,
to kiss
but only dreams can bring me this
so let the moon shine softly on the boy I long to see
And maybe when he dreams he'll dream of me

I'll hide beneath the clouds
and whisper to the evening star
They tell me love is just a dream away
dream away, dream away, I'll dream away

So let the moon shine softly on the boy I long to see
And maybe when he dreams, he'll dream of me
Oh.... dream of me

New students




Today, we were introduced to our new students. All kids. I took a photo of T.Peach's student and of course I also included my student. They're really cute^^... (my other student, she's an adorable little girl wasn't included, because she'll start tomorrow). Again, I'm not included...I'm just the photographer...^^

My schedule is almost full, only 2 more vacant slots. Peak season is near!...

*(1st photo) - T.Peach with her student Angelina & my student with T.Eileen.
*(2nd photo) - T.Peach with Angelina, study time.^^
*(3rd photo) - my student Sun, (with his favorite Philippine bread. While studying, he keeps on eating that bread...he told me Philippine bread is delicious. He's wondering why Philippine bread is so delicious... I told him Filipinos (our ancestors) are good bakers. ㅋㅋ

Anyway, tomorrow I'll start teaching in another room. Near our TOEIC room. Much better... 2nd floor, near the head teacher's office and also, main office.I'm gonna miss my old room, but its ok, coz' I'm able to see my previous room. Before I was in Room2 (became room 3, because of the additional room) and then moved to room 10 downstairs, and now room 17). I need to decorate again my new room!.. a little hassle... anyway, I'll just smile... and enjoy!^^

I'm listening to...

Currently, listening to Rain's I Do. Love the beat!... I do, I do... click on the link to see the video.

I Do
(English translation: Goro-chan/Jungie
www.aheeyah.com)

We feel the same and slowly learn about each other
Someday we may possibly hear "I do"
In front of our friends we stay as just friends
But we know we'll be together forever, I do

And I, I wanna know
Is it only me who can feel this way?
Or does your heart feel the same way my does?Dreaming of always being together

*I do I do These words say I'll be with you forever, I do
Whenever I'm with you, carefully in my heart
I do, I do wanna spend my life with you I dream "I do"
swear these precious words to you
I'm with you and you are beside me

We hold hands and walk along
Our feet in time with each other
I seem to feel like we can always go together

And I need to know
Is it only me who can feel this way?
Or does your heart feel the same way my does?
Dreaming of always being together

Our love has just begun, we still haven't everything

But for some reason I sometimes dream, I do I do I do
But for some reason I sometimes dream, I do I do I do

Song of the moment: Nothing's Gonna Change My Love For You

This song is a classic, I was still a small kid when I heard this song...

NOTHING'S GONNA CHANGE MY LOVE FOR YOU

If I had to live my life without you near me
The days would all be empty


The nights would seem so long
With you I see forever oh so clearly
I might have been in love before But it never felt this strong

Our dreams are young and we both know they'll take us Where we want to go

**Hold me now
Touch me now I don't want to live without you

Nothing's gonna change my love for you
You ought know by now how much I love you
One thing you can be sure of I'll never ask for more than your love
Nothing's gonna change my love for you
You ought know by now how much I love you
The world may change my whole life through
But nothing's gonna change my love for you

If the road ahead is not so easy,
Our love will lead the way for us like a guiding star
I'll be there for you if you should need me
You don't have to change a thing
I love you just the way you are

So come with me and share the view
I'll help you see forever too**

Song of the moment: Since I Found You


This song really got my attention. It's from the album again of Christian Bautista my favorite Filipino singer. In the future, I want this to be one of the songs that would be sang in my wedding.^^Still, I hope that someone will come... someone truly meant for me even if he's not 100% my ideal man.
Since I Found You
I think of you in everything that I do
To be with you
whatever it takes I'll do
Coz' you my love
You're all my heart desires
You've lightened up my life
Forever I'm alive
~Since I found you
My world seems so brand new
You've shown me the love I never knew
Your presence has spark my whole life through
Since I found you
My life began anew
Now who needs to dream when there is you
For all of my dreams came true
Since I found you
Your love shines bright
Through all the corners of my heart
Maybe, you are my dearest part
I give you all I have
My heart, my soul, my life
My destiny is you
Forever true
I'm so in love with you
Since I found you
My heart forever true
in love with you...

This is me!

Salary day today! My co-teachers (friends) and I went to the Ever mall near our school. I bought personal things and also, I bought some food to bring home to my aunt. I told her that I'll pay the remaining balance of my cellphone next payday. I also bought Discovery Channel's cracking the DaVinci code. I think its an interesting documentary. Also, I bought a sketch pad. During my free time I love to sketch. After I finish my career course in English, I plan take up designing. Also, I need to update my religious blog. See the link on the right side. The Korean students from my village Don Enrique Heights have a pool party tonight. Our co-teacher Lot invited me but I'm not interested... not my way of enjoying. I'm not fond of that, going to bars and discos, smoking, heavy drinking. You can say, my life is boring but hey! I love good clean fun! This is me! Any violent or negative comments out there? Mind your own business!
I'll watch Kim Sam Soon and Dae Jang Geum later. Great drama and what a great way to close the week. Another hectic week next Monday! I'm the substitute teacher of broken Jin. So, I didn't have free time today. Last period was music class!
Next English course that I'm studying English Proficiency & Speech Improvement... almost done..

Today...blah!blah!

Today's a good day! I'm talking about the weather. Its much better than yesterday. Its cooler coz' the sky was cloudy the and it rained the whole day. Jin, he's the Korean student who fractured his arm borrowed my cassette tape (Christian Bautista). He was pushed by the crowd before who was following Christian Bautista, the incident happened in SM North. We were also there, luckily we didn't experience any untoward incident. Cherrie's student, Cindy was surprised when she found out that Jin wasn't my student and she asked me why does he know me? Jin, always calls me big eyes and I called him broken.
My other student named Milk was annoying, he's boring and I don't like it coz' he pinched me. John his boardmate is also strange, always imitating me, also we hit each other often. Jack their boardmate is always absent in his class time with me. Strange... I'm still wondering.

What a day!

My student, he's a kid named Kevin. He gave me a headache!!! I told his uncle about what he did this afternoon. He locked my room and we can't get in. So we didn't study today. I spent the whole 3o minutes looking for our helper in the school (he has the keys). I don't have any duplicate key. Luckily, my student of mine, university student volunteered to climb and open the door from the inside. He was able to open my door. I dismissed my student at an earlier time. I can't teach him after what happened. After that I talked to his uncle a pastor & he's ok. He told me to have more patience with his nephew.

With My Favorite Singer


Ian
Originally uploaded by Bluelei.

Yesterday, Daphne, Cherrie and I went to SM North Edsa. We want to watch our favorite singer perform live. Also, we want to have hs autograph & we want to have a picture with him. It's a hot Saturday afternoon, anyway, everything went fine. We even saw our Korean employer, with his wife. We said hello to them.
The show went well. Cherrie didn't join us. She doesn't like him that much. She just bought a Guess watch. And were able to get his autograph and we had a picture with him.

I cancelled the plan yesterday with my other Korean students. Milk (우유). We should treat him because we asked him to download Korean songs for us. And honestly, I don't feel like hanging around with their group. Not like the previous batch of university students. We really became close with them.(Cas, Colin, Eric, Sophie etc.,). They're the extras in Sandara Park's launching movie "Can This Be Love?"

Back for good!^^

Ok! I haven't updated this blog for months... and now I'm back!!! My aunt (the one I'm living with) I call her Mama Nitz. She's really generous coz' she bought a CPU for me and she bought a mobile phone for me last year. (Quite a cool phone with video, MP3, bluetooth and all the works). I'm happy and I thank God for everything! always...

Boring Monday T.T

We have no class today. Our language school decided to postpone the class this Monday because of the State of the Nation Address of our Philippine President. (SONA) There is a rally outside so its advisable to just stay at home and avoid the danger. Yikes!
Yesterday, I just stayed home...

Song of the moment: Fall For You by Shanice

These past few days I've been listening to this sweet cool song by Shanice. How many of us have wished that the one who has captured our hearts would fall for us too! Or when we finally meet that someone whom we feel that's right for us. Wishing that you're feeling the same feelin' for each other. Yes, I'm a romantic person and I still believe in Fate and Destiny... still waiting for the one...

Fall For You
by: Shanice

There's a right or wrong to know for everything
And the truth is somewhere written in between
But there's always something missing in the dark
There you'll find the true condition of the heart

Well, I can visualize the pieces of a dream,
And it's not as far away as it may seem
But if truth be told, it is you that holds the key
To the question that defines my destiny

I've been in love, a time or two
I've seen the world, when i'm with you
I wanna fly and spread my wings
I don't wanna cry, I wanna sing
I wanna live and take a chance
I'm not afraid to love again
I wanna fall, fall for you
And I want you to fall for me too


I've had plenty conversations with my heart
Coz I want this thing to work, not fall apart
So, I ask my heart how it can be so sure
And it answers me because your heart is pure

I have every expectation that is true
Coz my heart won't lie to me, much less to you
But if truth be told, it is you that holds the key
To the future that becomes our destiny

Unto the mountain snow that melts into the stream
My heart goes like a river to sea
To the heavens up above,
I pray to God our destiny is love...



I want you to fall for me too...

A Favor

One of my students.. is kinda strange. He asked me to give him a present.. and that's by doing him a favor of going out with him next week. He said that he wants us to watch a movie together... He'll even ask the permission of our boss, so I'll be able to finish my work early... Dunno know why? I just think it's funny...~

Note: I ask him today if we my friend can come with us. I will bring my friend Cherrie coz' I'm not comfortable in going out with him alone.

A Blog Makeover!

Wow! I can't believe that I'm writing again... I have another blog, but its intended for my spiritual moments. This one, I can say is also a part of the human me.
I decided to close this blog but all the memories here would be forgotten... So, now I decided to continue writing since I have so many things on my mind and heart. Why did I change the link?... Privacy is important... and because I have a personal reason.
