An 11-year-old girl who lost her father made the world cry with her on Tuesday.
Paris Katherine Jackson, 11, said goodbye to her father at the close of the memorial service.

"Ever since I was born, daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine," said Paris Katherine Jackson, the second of Michael Jackson's three children, as a massive memorial service for her father neared its end in downtown Los Angeles.

"And I just want to say that I love him so much," Paris added, before breaking down in tears and burying herself in the arms of her aunt, Janet Jackson.

Her aunts, uncles and two brothers who were on stage at the Staples Center arena reached over to console Paris. Thousands of mourners in the audience dabbed their eyes with tissues.

It was the first time they had heard from a girl who, along with her two siblings, have often been hidden by veils or blankets when seen with their father.

To those who got something to say about him, tell it to this girl face to face.

If you have the guts.

Just a little pissed.

I've been on the online community for a long while now. So I can say I've seen a lot of stuff.

So far, the world of internet has always been a great source of amusement, reference and inspiration for me.

But I've also seen how wicked and brainless people can be. How soulless they may seem with the way they interact with others. How totally immature and single-minded stupid people can be. And to me, it causes so much despair and disgust.

I'm a realist and I do believe in the freedom of expression. But in every right, there must always be a sense of responsibility in exercising this right. There's nothing wrong if you think differently than other people and there's nothing wrong with criticism as long as there's a huge amount of respect and it constructs people instead of destroying them.

I can't believe there are a lot of sick and disgusting people out there who could only see the wrong and always find something to destroy and insult. If you have nothing right to say, just shut your frikkin' trap.

Or maybe they got no one to teach them propriety. They are less than animals in the way they behave. I can only feel pity and disgust for those type of people.

People use the net to share and communicate. The net has done so much good. It's people like you who ruin everything. I guess you like that and proud of yourself.

Sorry to say, but you're the most useless and less noticed person.

Your replies get erased and nobody listens to you. That must've sucked.

Nobody likes you. You get no new friends and if you're lucky you get a lot of hate mails and people curse your folks because of your lousiness even if they got nothing to do with that.

I pity you for having no light in your life. I pity you for having nothing but ignorance in your wretched life and I pity you for being amused at the misery of others.

I'm sure nobody loves you so you're taking it out on the world. Nobody loves somebody like that and nobody gives a damn.

How do you like it if you're the one getting pummeled with all of this useless and tasteless stuff? I bet you'd lash out quickly.

Even you wouldn't like it. So don't act all macho or bitchy that you think you like it and think it's cool because you're practically lying to yourself. And you know it.

Envy all you want. Destroy what you want. Insult everyone. Enjoy yourself.

Because that's all there will be in your pathetic life.

You're all alone.

Ruben V. Napales' (a writer in the Philippine Daily Inquirer) interview with Johnny Depp:

Ruben: They're touting Robert Pattinson (lead star of Twilight) as the next Johnny Depp. Do you know him?

Johnny: I don't. I wish him luck. (laughter)

LOL.

I'm amused.:D

My brother has work now. Even if it isn't related to his course, it'll be such a big help.:D

Interviews are coming my way. Hopefully I get a good job soon too.^^

My BF finished his classes in 3D. He got high scores.:D

New movies starring Will Ferrell and John Heder and Ryan Reynolds!:D

Hopefully the blessings keep coming.^___^

Parang si Brad Pitt. Di ba uso pa nun yung Interview with the Vampire Slayer? (Like Brad Pitt. Wasn't Interview with the Vampire Slayer famous back then?)- Heart Evangelista

I thought I made a mistake when I heard this. But I heard this twice. Uhm... she's confused with Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the Vampire Chronicles movie?

I thought Brad Pitt is a BIG clue already.

Tsk.

When I look up at the sky
The stars, see, are sparkling
Each giving off its own light
Like the people on this planet
Yeah, so I, too
Want to shine particularly bright
I close my eyes and make a vow in my heart
And entrust my dreams to that shooting star

I'm in my usual park
I can see the night scenery
On the slide
That's been my special seat for years
Whenever I'm worried about something, I come here
Just like then, I'm on my way to my dreams
But unable to fulfill them
"Maybe this is the end of the line"
There are days when I say weak things like that
But every time, I remember
That starry sky where I looked for a shooting star
The wish I made when I was little
Hasn't changed even now

When I look up at the sky
The stars, see, are sparkling
Each giving off its own light
Like the people on this planet
Yeah, so I, too
Want to shine particularly bright
I close my eyes and make a vow in my heart
And entrust my dreams to that shooting star

Hiding out in the schoolyard at night with my mates
We climbed the chain-link fence
The field seemed to have a different face than during the day
We headed for our sea called the pool
We didn't have swimming trunks, so we were all stark naked
Someone jumped in with a strange yell
The splash echoed through the night
"After him!" Everyone else piled in
We floated gently, looking up at the sky
Looked at the stars in front of us, and talked about heaps of dreams
And looked for that shooting star

When I look up at the sky
The stars, see, are sparkling
Each giving off its own light
Like the people on this planet
Yeah, so I, too
Want to shine particularly bright
I close my eyes and make a vow in my heart
And entrust my dreams to that shooting star

Looking up at the sky, there are countless stars
The same number now that there was years ago
My dreams are endless and crazy
Incredibly bright, like that star

Hey! If you keep hanging your head like that
You won't even be able to see the things you can see
Look up at the sky, keep your head up!!
Hey! "What do you think of the sky you see?"
Someday, like that shining star
I wanna shine

When I look up at the sky
The stars, see, are sparkling
Each giving off its own light
Like the people on this planet
Yeah, so I, too
Want to shine particularly bright
I close my eyes and make a vow in my heart
And entrust my dreams to that shooting star

This song kept me sane all this time. Thanks, Home Made Kazoku.

Another series of good-looking men, as I promised.:D Enjoy ladies.

Although this time, I doubt if we ever will have anything in common.:D lol

Let's face it. There are a lot of hot guys out there.:D Most of mine are from random animes.

But then, I think I'll backtrack and go out of bounds a little to remember all the cute guys I encountered through the years in random media.:D

Let's see if you guys and I have something in common.:D

The streets empty.

The supermarkets and town plazas void of people.

Almost no public or private vehicles hitting the roads. I can almost see a tumbleweed travelling down our street.

Zero crime rate. The war in Mindanao stops.

Peace on Earth.

If only for a few minutes.

Until the resounding victory shouts of every Filipino erupts in every house, every gym, and every theater.

2 FRIKKIN' ROUNDS and the fight's over!?


" Manny Pacquiao, often considered the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world, cemented his reputation Saturday night when he knocked out British boxer Ricky Hatton in the second round.

"That was two of the most exciting rounds I have seen in my career," said Chris Mannix, a writer for Sports Illustrated. "You saw, from the opening bell, Pacquiao was really dominant."

With the win at the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas, Nevada, Pacquiao added the light-welterweight crown to his past world titles: lightweight, super-featherweight, light-featherweight, featherweight and flyweight.

The Filipino's career record now stands at 49-3-2 with 37 knockouts.

The fight, for which Pacquiao reportedly earned $12 million, was brief.

Pacquiao knocked Hatton down in the first round from a series of lightning-fast right hooks.

The British boxer managed to get to his feet and finish the round, but the outcome was evident once the second round began.

But Pacquiao's technique and speed quickly outclassed Hatton. The Filipino's right hooks set up a devastating left hook that flattened Hatton with a second remaining in the second round. The referee quickly ended the match.

"It turned out he (Hatton) just wasn't very good at boxing," Mannix said. "You saw the difference between a great fighter and very good fighter."

The 30-year-old Pacquiao is a national hero in the Philippines, where his bouts bring the country to a standstill. He came into the fight on Saturday as a narrow favorite after sending one of the biggest names in the sport, Oscar de la Hoya, into retirement with a stoppage victory in December.

Nicknamed "Pacman," he grew up poor in General Santos City in the southern Philippines. He found boxing as a way to lift himself to fame and riches, yet he remains self-deprecating outside of the ring.

It is this combination of a fierce fighter in the ring and a smiling deferential one outside that has helped turn him into an idol."

-CNN

Also present in the fight were famous people like Jack Nicholson, Mark Wahlberg (who was a huge fan of Pacquiao), and Batista(half-Filipino wrestler), who was part of Pacquiao's entourage.

Times like this, it feels so good to be a Filipino indeed.^___^ Although I feel quite bad for those who spent so much money to watch it uninterrupted, only to have it end too quickly indeed. I also feel bad about Hatton, since this is his 2nd chance to redeem himself. And my, that was a very terrible punch to the jaw. We were all worried because it took a while before he woke up.o_o

'Mas mahaba pa ang parada kesa sa laban." LOL.

Mabuhay ka, Manny. We, your kababayans all over the world, are so proud of you.

Ah... the song of everyday life.

1. Wake up and fix the bed.
2. Eat breakfast and clean the 2nd floor (dusting, sweeping, mopping through 3 bedrooms, a CR and the balcony).
3. Take a bath.

5. Wash the rags and random clothes.
6. Sweep the front gate.
7. Carry the laundry up the stairs.

Okay... this is the weirdest thing ever. But I need help.

I've been compiling movie soundtracks that are good enough for wedding songs. Like 'Glory of Love' from Karate Kid and 'Accidentally in Love' from Shrek. And I do mean HAPPY songs with HAPPY messages. No mention of death or total sadness. So ' My Heart will go on' and 'There You'll Be' aren't on my list.^^;

So, if you know of anything, feel free to tell me.^^

Thank you everyone.:dance:

As to where I'll be using it, let's just hold that for a later date.:D

I've been watching XXXholic ( pronounced only as 'holic') for a while now. It was made by CLAMP, the same girls who also made Magic Knight Rayearth, X/1999 and Card Captor Sakura. I couldn't continue reading the manga online because of time and money restrictions. And I ahevn't finished watching the DVD of the first season. But I'm glad, and kind of awed, that I got to watch the 20th episode.

(For those who aren't familiar with XXXholic, it's the story of Kimihiro Watanuki, a high school student plagued by spirits with a strong attraction to him. The spirits are invisible to others and encounters with them are extremely troublesome. When he stumbles into a shop that grants wishes, however, events in his life promise to become more unusual.

The shop is owned by Yūko Ichihara, a mysterious and beautiful (sometimes playful) witch of many names and esoteric renown. For a price, she offers to grant Watanuki's wish to be rid of the spirits. The price, according to Yūko, must be of equal value and so, as payment, he temporarily becomes Yūko's part-time employee.

Watanuki's job consists of small errands dealing with the supernatural and household chores.)

Episode 20th was about a picture of a girl who had her back turned on when her picture was taken. Watanuki, who can feel the presence of oddly scary things, was scared of it before he saw it, because it was in the envelope when given to Yuuko by its distraught owner, who didn't know what to do with it. When the picture was revealed, Watanuki was confused because there was nothing strange about the picture at all. Just a girl whose face you can't see.

So they placed the picture in a frame and it remained in the living room. Until one day, Watanuki saw the frame melting and the girl in the picture started to move. She turned and they saw a smiling face. Watanuki became even more bewildered because there was no malevolent nature to it at all. Right at that moment, the female owner of the picture arrived and they all saw, much to her horror, how her image ran to the girl (as if you're watching a video in a melting frame) and how she pushed the girl down a cliff. The owner grabbed the picture to avoid letting the others see it. And she begged Yuuko to make the picture disappear. And that is what Yuuko did. She held the picture as it gently distintegrated. But Watanuki saw the owner's maniacal face in the picture. The owner vehemently denied that she killed the girl. The girl just slipped and fell down the cliff. But as she cowered and panicked, it was hard for Yuuko and Watanuki to believe her at all.

With that done, Yuuko tells the owner that she will never encounter that picture again. And that she has to pay a price for that service. And she was more than willing. Until Yuuko told her what the price is.

SHE WAS TO NEVER EVER HAVE HER IMAGE RECORDED IN OR BY ANY DEVICE. CAMERAS, VIDEOS, ETC. BECAUSE SHOULD SHE ACCIDENTALLY HAVE HER PICTURE TAKEN OR SHOULD SHE APPEAR ON TELEVISION OR IN A VIDEO, THE IMAGE THE DISINTEGRATED PICTURE SHOWED THEM WILL BE SHOWN INSTEAD.

That just blew me away. I mean... how can you avoid that? The world is so full of CCTV, satellites and camera phones. So even if her picture was accidentally taken by a passing tourist or she happens to pass by a group of friends taking a video, that horrible image of her killing someone will be seen by everybody. Wow.

As a final word, Yuuko said that the only way to avoid such is to NEVER EVER leave her house. Taking somebody else's life pays a truly heavy price.

That's terrible. And terrible too that you'll never leave a single mark of yourself in the world. To the ancient Egyptians, that was the worst punishment. Because to them, it is the same as taking away your immortality.

And then I thought... wow. What if this would happen to everyone whose ever killed anyone?

Now, wouldn't that be truly horrible than death?

I can SO relate to this song. I feel like an empty can thrown away in the streets. After consuming what I had to offer, I'm treated like trash. Useless and left to the elements to rot away. Is this what I truly deserve? After all that I've done? Up to now, I just can't believe it. I hate this so much. I feel like crap.

And yet I have to do something... I can't live like this forever...

*sigh*

Until the World Comes to an End
Sung by: Wands
Romanization/Translation: Takayama Miyuki & Serizawa Kamo

I'm all alone in the big city,
thrown away like an empty can.
If love is love until we know everything about each other
Then let's sleep forever...

And so, people seek an answer
And lose something that's irreplaceable
A city filled with desires, even the stardust
in the night skies doesn't shine on us

Before the world comes to an end, please make me listen.
A catastrophy well suited to a flower in full bloom...
While everyone wishes, no one believes in eternity.
...Even so, they certainly dream about tomorrow.
Short-lived days and... this tragedy night

Until the world come to an end, we won't be apart.
I wished it for countless nights
Why do only the irretrievable times shine?
Even the worn-out heart is broken.
Melancholically fleeting thoughts... on this tragedy night
This tragedy night

So the holy week arrives.

Here in our country, Holy Week is a very solemn time. The Philippines consists of around 80% catholics. So we take this week very seriously. You'll see it on the local TV, with our Holy Week Specials. You'll see it on the roads, since there are lesser people outside. And it's pretty obvious in the Pier. Once the holiday sets in, almost everybody wants to go to their provincial hometown all at the same time. So imagine the chaos and the heat ( It's the height of SUMMER in our tropical lil country).

They take it seriously especially in the provinces and during the olden times. I was told that before, during the entire week, from Palm Sunday to Black Saturday, there are a lot of restrictions and lots of activities. No laughing out loud, no eating of meat (not even hamburgers), not eating too much, no TV, no computer, no playing around, no roaming around, no establishments open, no outings. After all, it is the time when we reminisce the Lord's sufferings for the salvation of man and so we try to be one with him.

And yet, there are also a number of events and panatas ( a sort of promise a person makes to God for a favor granted or a favor asked, like me, I usually avoid drawing or sketching during the Holy Week as my sacrifice. My way of thanking him). Some people take it to extremes. Some wear wooden helmets and masks in extreme heat, flog themselves until blood comes out and their backs get shredded under the heat of the sun, and some even have themselves crucified, with real nails driven through their hands and feet. The townspeople and tourists bear witness to this. Some awed, some freaked-out, some shocked, and still some are amazed with the effort these people exert in the name of faith.

My mother came from the Island of Marinduque, which is the heart of the Philippines. Here, during the Holy Week, we have the Moriones Festival, held in honor of the Roman Centurion Longinus. His life is portrayed in a play, from the time he pierced Jesus' side, to the point where he gets beheaded by his fellow soldiers. People dress up as Roman soldiers. I own a mask of a morion ( Roman Soldier) and it is REALLY BIG AND HEAVY. I wore it once and I almost suffocated. It's so hot. And yet, it's so intricately detailed and finely crafted on the outside. The fun part here is when the one who plays Longinus starts running and hiding from the roman soldiers and the crowd participates, with the morions running after the crowd as Longinus hides among the people. Chaos I tell you.

Then we have the Pasyon. The ritual singing of the creation, entire life of Jesus, St. Helen's search for the cross, and Judgement Day in poetic style. The old folks in the provinces know this by heart. I tend to just read the Pasyon. I can't sing it and I'm too slow. It's supposedly to be sang starting on Palm Sunday, then supposedly will be finished right before 3PM on Good Friday.

The Prusisyon (Procession) is also a contemporary event here. A procession showing the statues of saints and Jesus and Mary in scenes portraying the life of Christ. The wooden statues were all very finely made. Our country is known for its wonderful craftsmen of religious items, and it is always a wonderful thing to see the wonderful clothes, the long eyelashes, the curly hair and soft kind faces of the Mary, Christ and the saints. In opposition is the faces of the antagonists.o_o Too scary for words.

The play depicting Christ's life, especially is called the senakulo. Lately, they're added a modern twist to the play. Even local actors here have played as Christ of his disciples.

My parents, being very religious, also have their arsenal of religious cds and dvds on hand during these days. They tend to watch Spartacus, Ben Hur, The Ten Commandments ( a classic favorite starring Chalton Heston and Yul Bryner), The Passion of the Christ ( My dad cried each time he watched this), Jesus of Nazareth (starring Robert Powell), and my favorite for its unbelievable rock tunes, Jesus Christ Superstar.:D The one who played Jesus here has an unbelievably high voice and it is set in the hippies time. Flower Power.:D

The 7 last words is an undying tradition here during Good Friday. 7 priests give their interpretation of each of Christ's last words. We just watch it on TV because it's way too hot outside.

Lately, everyone is being a lot more relaxed and not as strict and boring like the old days. We started having this notion that Christ isn't dead. We just remember and contemplate what He did. We watch TV and do normal stuff. Work until Holy Wednesday. But with an ounce of solemnity. A little silence, a little prayer and a lot of gratitude. After all, He did it for all of us. I guess it wouldn't hurt to let him know that we appreciate it.:D

Do Svidaniya is 'goodbye' in russian.

Everytime I watch either the animated Anastasia film feature or the National Geographic topic about the Romanovs, I still feel some sort of vague sadness over what has befallen such an illustrious family. And what such beautiful girls this family has. It is indeed a pity they had to end that way.

Ever since I was a child, my papa told me stuff about them. He watched movies about them that I tried to watch but couldn't continue. Of them all, I favored, of course, Anastasia, always believing in my youth that just maybe she did survive.

But of course, as the years went by, I was faced with a truth that it's somehow... impossible.

I made this imagining what it's like when she finally reached that peace which almost the entire world wished upon her and her family. I was supposed to put in a phoenix, but somehow, that didn't sit well. So I gave her butterflies. A symbol of immortality.

Since I can't properly draw real people, I made her in the way I knew how. I probably made a lot of mistakes on her. So... I'm really sorry in advance.

Anastasia, by the way, meant ' of the resurrection'.

Love vs Infatuation

Infatuation vs. Love

Infatuation is instant desire - one set of glands calling to another.

Love is friendship that has caught fire. It takes root and grows, one day at a time.

Infatuation is marked by a feeling of insecurity. You are excited and eager, but not genuinely happy. There are nagging doubts, unanswered questions, little bits and pieces about your beloved that you would just as soon not examine too closely. It might spoil the dream.

Love is the quiet understanding and mature acceptance of imperfection. It is real. It gives you strength and grows beyond you - to bolster your beloved. You are warmed by their presence, even when they are away. Miles do not separate you. You have so many wonderful little films in your head that you keep replaying. But near or far, you know they are yours, and you can wait.

Infatuation says, "We must get married right away. I can’t risk losing them."

Love says, "Be patient. Don’t panic. Plan your future with confidence."

Infatuation has an element of sexual excitement. Whenever you are together, you hope it will end in intimacy.

Love is not based on sex. It is the maturation of friendship, which makes sex so much sweeter. You must be friends before you can be lovers.

Infatuation lacks confidence. When they’re away, you wonder if they’re cheating. Sometimes, you check.

Love means trust. You are calm, secure and unthreatened. They feel your trust, and it makes them even more trustworthy.

Infatuation might lead you to do things you will regret, but love never steers you in the wrong direction.

Love is an upper. It makes you feel whole. It completes the circle. It fills the empty space in your heart.

Love is elevating. It lifts you up. It makes you look up. It makes you think up. It makes you a better person than you were before. If you have love in your life, it can make up for a great many things you don’t have. If there is no love in your life, whatever else there is has a lot less meaning.

The secret of our being is not only to live but to have something to live for.

So boys and girls, learn to see the difference. And see the truth for what it is.

Now that I'm 26...

I've been hooked to fashion stuff lately. I'm not really a hardcore fashionista. But I find myself enjoying dressing up and building up a little confidence with what I wear.

I've been buying magazines and testing make-up. I've been browsing through stores for nice little clothes, shoes and accesories. I've been trying to build a wardrobe arsenal based on Gossip Girl's Blair Waldorf's style. The plaids and the bows. And so far, the response I've been getting is goood. Oh yeh.

I'm still in my art downtime. I was too busy with work and sleeping and making stories that I suddenly have little energy left to even sketch. But I've been studying pencil strokes a lot to avoid my shaky-hand syndrome. So far I'm getting the hang of it.

I'm thinking positively lately. I'm more of into the happy stuff ( IS THIS ME OMG) and avoiding dark and depressing stuff. Although I'm still quite gothicky ( NOT EMO).

I adore Fairly Oddparents! Cosmo and Wanda! Timmy! Chip Skylark! Gah! My day is never complete without at least 2 episodes to watch.

Watched Blades on HBO again after a long time. I still couldn't control my hand from twirling in time when they do the Triple Axle together in the fire and ice routine. I still squeal when Chazz thanked the medal-giving lady.

I think need new glasses though. I think my eye grade went a tad higher again.@__@

I wanna connect with my relatives and my family a lot lately. I wanna spend a lot of time with them. I go home earlier lately because of that. I feel closer to my uncles and aunts and cousins. I became more expressive towards my mom and dad.

I don't play online games much anymore. I guess the phase is past. But I have to be careful still. The inner gamer is alive still.

I'm very budget-conscious lately. Maybe because I'm getting older and my life is getting more complicated and expensive.

My hyperthyroid is almost gone! WEEEEEEE!

Hmmm... lotsa new stuff.:)

I've been standing here
Waiting for the bus on a Saturday
Laundry on my back
Ultraviolet rays
Like posing for a shot on a magazine
What the hell does it mean

I'm a travelling man
Straight from the can
I'm a thousand miles away
From my number one fan

My folks are getting tight
Won't let me out at night
You can't avoid the complications
When there's no reason at all

When the lightning strikes we fry
I'll drink my beer
I'll wipe my tears
Southbound in the sky

Another crime
Another reason gets you everyday
The only time that you can talk
You ain't got nothing to say

Well, I'm caught up in a stupid game
That I can't play
It's just a waste of time
But I'm in it anyway

I've been sitting here
Watching the signs
Too many cars at night
Belching in the moonlight

We're doing ninety
As the sky turns to gray
The people look like bees
Buzzing in the highway

The wheel are rolling
Like a rolling stone
Alone, I choose the road less traveled on

Now I'm lying here
Waiting for the day on the second deck
Dreaming of a girl from a fairy tale
Chain around my neck
A ride is all it takes
But pains get in the way

------------------------------------

I have huge ass dreams. And I'm gonna chase after them.
