keanu vs. brad?

keanu ako ever since bogus days pa. ayoko ng sabihin kung bakit mas gusto ko sya dahil baka gerahin ako ng mga brad-a-holics na magagawi dito.

heniweyz, today has been a keanu filled day. nag-channel surf ako kanina, nakita ko sya sa hbo (devil's advocate). isang clik pa at nakita ko na naman sya sa star movies (bill and ted's). what a coincidence, sabi ko sa sarili ko. later pagkagaling ko ng sm, binuksan ko ulit yung tv. nyek, sya ulit ang nakita ko. constantine naman sa hbo.

wla lang *shrug*

argh!

allow me to waste more blog space.

super sakit ng ulo ko, three days na. i did yoga stretches first thing kanina. it helped a little. and then i slept. when i woke up balik na naman yung sakit. ang humid na naman kasi tapos biglang uulan sa hapon. ka-bad trip. last week nga nilagnat ako. buti na lang hindi nagtuloy-tuloy. prior to that, nag-comment ako kay claudia santiago. ang sabi ko "at least ikaw may excuse, nagkasakit ka" we were talking about beating our personal work deadlines. the very next day, ayun na, nilagnat na ako. never underestimate the power of suggestion talaga...

plus i think my sinuses are acting up again kasi ambantut ng baby dog ko. i can't give her a bath for fear that she might get sick. madali kasi siyang magka-ubo. that, and because tinatamad lang talaga ako, hehe



btw, she'll be turning eleven next month. nirarayuma na nga pag minsan.

yun lang po. sa ngayon makikinig na lang muna ako ng ooh child.

o-o-h child

I've forgotten how much I used to love this song until I heard it again recently in an episode of Kevin Hill. But the version they used wasn't as upbeat as the version I remember. Theirs was of a much slower tempo, more ballad-y

Eitherway, the positive message of the lyrics still come's across. Perfect to listen to when you feel blaah. Definitely a feel good song.

O-o-h child things are gonna get easier
O-o-h child things'll get brighter
O-o-h child things are gonna get easier
O-o-h child things'll get brighter

Someday well get it toghether and well get it undone
Someday when the world is much brighter
Someday well walk in the rays of a beautiful sun
Someday when the world is much lighter

O-o-h child things are gonna get easier
O-o-h child things'll get brighter
O-o-h child things are gonna get easier
O-o-h child things ll get brighter

Someday well get it toghether and well get it undone
Someday when the world is much brighter
Someday well walk in the rays of a beautiful sun
Someday when the world is much lighter

O-o-h child things'll get brighter
O-o-h child things are gonna get easier
O-o-h child things ll get brighter
