meet and greet with iseecallai

I see you in my dreams. You are that little silhouette in the dark. Yet you are also the bright figure in the light. And although I always see you, you are always unknown.
I never fail to ask for your name, in order to search for you in the real world perhaps. But you always, [...]

It was a clear night sky. We were lying flat on your roof and figuring out the constellations. The wind, cool but not chilly, was softly blowing, making the chimes on your window tinkle. It was perfect. Silent, but not too silent.
I was happy. It was simple bliss. I moved to my side [...]

Discarded Memories and Persistent Letters
Tearstains cover the letter she was holding. The writing was smudged and the letter edges blotted. Not knowing what to expect from it, she just continued to gaze at it. Staring at the stains, smudges and blots but not really reading through the lines.
The stains mean the writer was crying while [...]

Tears fall from her misty eye
Untold memories made her cry
Feeling of hurt, of pain and sorrow
Led her to think there would be no tomorrow
Eyes that say, “please talk to me,
I’ve got problems can’t you see?”
She wants to sob , to shout and wail,
But she can’t, the ship of feelings just won’t sail.
She’s afraid to let [...]

as the wind passes thru my body,
a chill passes thru my very soul…
as the leaves flutter around me,
mem’ries come a tingling by…
as i look up to the sky,
impulse and instinct stop me…
as the darkness envelopes me,
realizations set me free…

During a performance last May 9 in SM Baguio, Candy Pangilinan, a comedian, said twice: “Tao po ako, hindi po ako Igorot (I am human, not an Igorot.).”
This statement was reminiscent of a sentence in Carlos P. Romulo’s book “Mother America,” published on 1943 in Garden City, New York by Doubleday, Doran & [...]

This morning, in my Philosophy class, we were talking about John Stuart Mill’s theory on Utilitarianism. As always, I wasn’t really listening. I was reading The Mammoth Hunters by Jean Auel. But the topic on Act Utilitarianism and Rule Utilitarianism caught my attention. Yes, I may be talking in another language here but believe me, [...]

Clumsy brushes on the ear, that’s where it started. It felt eerie. Not eerie bad, but eerie good. Good but too much out of the normal. She didn’t know how to react. Yes, they were friends, still are in fact. They hug at times, have coffee breaks or dinner dates together; and holding hands is [...]

The Legends of the Old
by: Elizabeth Carla Pekas
there are some stories meant to be told,
like the legends of the old.
there are some stories meant to be discussed,
like the legends of the old.
there are some stories loved and retold,
like the legends of the old.
there are some stories meant to be forgotten,
like the legends of the old.

These are the beginnings of various blogs in the future. Random jots that suddenly pop into my mind when I see, hear, smell, taste or touch something.
“Pining for you.”
“At what point do you expect me to give up? When everything in the world I’m believing in is gone?” 
(This one has been with me [...]
