Last Song Syndrome

I cannot recall the last time I listened to a song on my MP4 player. Months have probably passed by yet I didn’t notice that I have survived without one of my passions. This is a cause of my hectic schedule as a college student. But anyway, I see to it that I still find time to listen to my favorite songs whenever I go online. In fact, I have put one of my favorite songs on my Friendster Profile.

Music. A thing that expresses what can’t be said by just pure words. It is an complete eruption of emotions summed up by melody. It is part of our everyday lives. We always hear it, we always feel it. Music is simply everywhere, from the mass you attended, to the rock concert you watched. Music is music itself.

Let me end this post by sharing with you the song I displayed on my Friendster Profile. It is entitled  “Falll for You” by Secondhand Serenade. Enjoy!

The Busy Weekend

Today is a Saturday - my favorite day for this semester. This is the day when I am given time to spend according to my own will and discretion. But this day also marks many obstacles, in the form of homeworks.

Early this morning, I met with an old friend - numbers. Faced with a mathematical problem like the one I have, the only thing you can do is to surrender and admit to yourself that you can’t do it no matter how hard you try. However, I have a different view. For me, you should do something, not just to run from numbers and realize in the end that you have started a life-long chase with them. It’s because numbers are part of our everyday life and there’s no escaping them. So I sat down and tried to answer my College Algebra homework. Fortunately, after a complete brain torure, I managed to answer one. And I intend to finish the others today.

Next in line is English Proficiency, who is also an old friend of mine. The act of answering 15 pages of homework turned out to be okay. The good thing is that English Proficiency is at least a notch easier than College Algebra.

The Civic Welfare Training Service assignment seems to be fine…at first glance. But it’s not. My right hand cried in agony as it underwent a series of writings to do.

The same goes on with other minor assignments that I have to deal with later. Although all of my days are busy, I’ll still find time to update you with my blog - that’s a promise.

Done

I must admit that it took me a couple of hours to come up with my new blog. One might say that I’m too slow in doing these things but it’s really time consuming to transfer my previous posts from my old blog to this one. It also took me a while to choose a template that will completely represent me in the online community.

When I got home from school, I my weary feet automatically directed me in front of my monitor. My sore hands from a day’s work opened the CPU for me. And it all began. My daily computer routine has started. I checked my Friendster, Multiply, and i.ph accounts but I really spent more time on i.ph. I also visited my previous blog and decided to transfer my posts to this new site so that I can come up with a big compilation of my thoughts.

And now that I am already finished, I would like to congratulate my self for a job well done. You can congratulate me too, just post a comment and you’ll relieve my stress.

Nuguid, Rob Jeremiah Gotengco

The poem below is a requirement for my subject Sining ng Komunikasyon (FIL 11). This is about myself.

 

NUGUID, ROB JEREMIAH GOTENGCO

Bago mag-umpisa ang lahat ng ito,
Itatanghal ko ang sarili sa inyo
Ako’y si Rob, isang ordinaryong tao
Katanyagan ang kahulugan ng ngalan ko.

Sa Kawit, Cavite matatagpuan mo
Brgy. Legaspi na kinalakihan ko
Hanapin lang ang 1013 na numero
At tirahan ko na ang bubungad sa’yo.

Nang ikadalawampu’t lima ng Hulyo,
Sa bayan ng Imus nangyaring totoo
Ika-anim ng gabi nang isilang ako
‘Yon ang umpisa ng aking pagkatao.

Ang aking ama’y nagngangalang Roberto
Siya’y dakila at aking iniidolo
Aurelia naman ang ngalan ng ina ko
Sa pagmamahal niya, ako’y hindi talo.

Sa buhay ko, may tatlo akong kadugo
Una’y si Kevin na medyo seryoso;
Sunod si Ron-ron na may pagkatuso;
At si Jonathan na sa amin ay bunso.

Mahilig akong magbasa ng libro
Kumain, matulog, at magpakatao
Ang pagkokompyuter ay isa ring hilig ko
Ibig ko ring kulayan ang aking mundo.

Ayoko sa palaka at mga aso
Pati na rin sa mga adik sa kanto
Takot akong humarap sa pagkabigo
At magpaalam dito sa ating mundo.

Pangarap kong magkaroon ng trabaho
Umalis ng bansa, sa Japan dumako
Ngunit ang nais ko ngayong oras na ‘to,
Sa kursong ito ako nawa’y maka-uno.

Kung susuriin ang aking apelyido
Ako’y isang “Nuguid” na may lahing Tsino
Gayunpaman, kami’y tunay na Pilipino,
Pinoy na taas noo kahit kanino.

At dito natatapos ang tulang ito
Nawa’y napakilala ko ng totoo
Ang sarili kong ito bilang ako

Salamat sa pagtangkilik,mga katoto.
