I saw this @ Amie's blog and I thought it was interesting so I want to post it:
(I had you, I had everything I ever needed)
From that first look I knew
I found heaven in your eyes
But who was to know, the way it would go
I have NO REGRETS
Glad I let YOU IN
Wouldn't have missed one single moment
I would do it ALL OVER AGAIN
'Cause I was LOVED
I was TOUCHED
And I LEARNED what LOVE is, and I learned what love is
I was blessed
SO BLESSED
'Cause i learned what love is, I learned what love is
FROM LOVING YOU
(I held you, I held everything I ever dreamed of)
With that first kiss from you
All this world seemed all so right
But who was to see the way it would be
I'll never forget
All the heaven we shared
And I'll thank God for every moment
Every moment that I had you there
I was LOVED
I was TOUCHED
And I learned what love is, AND I LEARNED WHAT LOVE IS
I was blessed
SO BLESSED
'Cause I learned what love is, I learned what love is
FROM LOVING YOU
(Some people search their whole lives
Never find what I found in your eyes)
Glad I got to get the chance to
Have you in my life
I won't be sad when I look back
'Cause I was... I was...
I was loved
I was touched
And I learned what love is, and I learned what love is
I was blessed
SO BLESSED
'Cause I learned what love is, I LEARNED WHAT LOVE IS
FROM LOVING YOU- MANDY MOORE

My sister sent me this e-mail and I found it interesting..so I'm sharing it...
Is It Really LOVE?
For all you people who say "I love you" when you have no clue what love is exactly!!!
Something to ponder upon.....
Are your palms sweaty, is your heart racing and is your voice caught within your chest??
-It isn't love, it's LIKE.
You can't keep your eyes or hands off of them, am I right??
-It isn't love, it's LUST.
Are you proud, and eager to show them off??
-It isn't love, it's LUCK.
Do you want them because you know they're there??
-It isn't love, it's LONELINESS.
Are you there because it's what everyone wants??
-It isn't love, it'S LOYALTY.
Are you there because they kissed you, or held your hand??
-It isn't love, it's LOW CONFIDENCE.
Do you stay for their confessions of love, because you don't want to hurt them??
-It isn't love, it's PITY.
Do you belong to them because their sight makes your heart skip a beat??
-It isn't love, it's INFATUATION.
Do you pardon their faults because you care about them??
-It isn't love, it's FRIENDSHIP.
Do you tell them every day they are the only one you think of??
-It isn't love, it's a LIE.
Are you willing to give all of your favorite things for their sake??
-It isn't love, it's CHARITY.
Does your heart ache and break when they're sad??
-Then it's LOVE.
Do you cry for their pain, even when they're strong??
-Then it's LOVE.
Do their eyes see your true heart, and touch your soul so deeply it hurts??
-Then it's LOVE.
Do you stay because a blinding, incomprehensible mix of pain and relation pulls you close and holds you there??
-Then it's LOVE.
Do you accept their faults because they're a part of who they are??
-Then it's LOVE.
Are you attracted to others, but stay with them faithfully without regret??
-Then it's LOVE.
Would you give them your heart, your life, your death??
-Then it's LOVE.
Now, if love is painful, and tortures us so, why do we love?
Why is it all we search for in life? This pain, this agony?
Why is it all we long for?
This torture, this powerful death of self?
Why?
The answer is so simple cause it's...LOVE.
It is such an addictive thing that even people who are not having it wish to experience it and share it with others as well.

Weather: Sunny and warm/hot
Question: Why does your skin get itchy when the sun's been on it for a while..I mean the sun's heat..ah.u kno what I mean..

After class, everyone went to Starbucks so I decided to go in Azel's Psyc. class..heehe..it was an interesting class..hah..watched a video and met her buds @ the back..hehe. After that, Azel and I went to La Bodegita to get some salsa but it was expensive so I just to get some fish taco @the taco shop near by.

We looked up some stuff in the library then headed to Suhi to get his car washed by the students there..haha..man..that wasn't worth $5..heheh...you should've given them $1 only like that one pilipino guy..hahahaha...but it's ok. After that carwash thing, we went to "Club Sergios"..hehe..we ordered Horchata w/ frieds and this one rice drink..hehe..it was GoOd..ha. After that we then went to the Chula Vista library to do our research for our Oral Comm speech that we tried to do..haha.On the way there we saw Ree..hehe.I haven't seen her in a while..it was cool seing her again! =D.

Interesting things that has happened @ work far are: Someone going up to me and asking me what size the pants she was wearing(she was already wearing the merchandise..hahahaha) and the second one was: I had a few more mins. for break so I decided to go to the bathroom, when I was infront of the door, I knocked then waited for about 2 secs. then opend the door slowly, right when I opened the door and peeked in, this lady goes.."no No no No no"..hahahahahah...she was wearing read undies..I'm sorry..I can stil imagine it..hahahaha..lol...horrible horrible..hehehe.

What a WEEKEND!!!!...ok first, ah..forgot what I did on Friday..I'll get back to that when I remember. Saturday, I went to class, went to Lind Vista for a bday party..Cj's so cute..haha..2 now! ;) stayed there mostly the whole day, I got to see relatives that I haven't seen in a while which was cool!. On Sunday, did the laundry, finished watching BATTLE ROYALE-a Japanese movie w/c I thought was pretty good though it was grusome..haha..there's some cute guys there too!..even the lead actor..heeh ;D Go watch it or download it!! went to church w/c I thought would be the last thing I'll be doing that day 'til Azel called me right when I got home from church to ask if I was still going bowling. I said yes so she picked me up and off we went to Eliza's but b4 going there we got some gas..haha. @ Eliza's we met new people then off we went to the bowling alley @ 32nd. There I saw JOE.haven't seen him in a while..it was cool sein him again ;D. We had to wait to get lanes because of the leagues that were playing. It wasn't all that bad cause we had things to do to kill time such as: Azel & her DDR, Jerome & the gun game, Pool, and card games.
The people who were there that night are: Me, Azel, Mae, Jerome, Eliza, Eleanor, Joe, Michael, Jason,Bj,Mae's cousin(sorry 4got her name), Christine and Luis..I think that's about it? We got 2 lanes for us to play. The people who I played with are: ElizaHoe, Princes Ding, and Azel Nut. The places of who won are: Eliza, Me, Azel, then Mae (first game)..then same for 2nd except Mae and Azel switched spots...haha..it was FUN FUN!. After the game, some people had to go home already so we all went back to Lizas then there we said our goodbyes and 'til next times..haha. Azel dropped me off home then that's about it.
Just when I thought my weekend was going to end there, it didn't. Today, I went on my interview @ Old Navy. They called me on Sat. for my interview, I was in class so I had to call back. I was sOoO excited when I found out they called cause they're the only store that called me back from the 3 stores that I applied for. hehehe...So yeah, @ my interview, I was nervous but it was cool. There was a guy before me I could hear his interview w/ the manager cause I was by them filling out this paper thing before the interview. After his interview the manager said she'll have to call him back and stuff cause there'll be more interviews going in the day. So I thought to myself then..man..I don't even know if I'll get this..but oh wells. After that, she started talking to me, I thought the interview went good. We laughed cause she asked me something about what I filled up. I had to answer questions and she asked me something about it. She was all, So, you wouldn't gain self confidence if you get HIRED?..then I go..OoOh..I thought it said if FIRED, would I gain self confidence...hahaha..then we started laughing then scribbled out the no and circled yes. I think that's part of how I GOT THE JOB!!..;). ..haha..and I took a while to answer that too..lol..I dunno how I got fired..but it ryhmes!

A story I thought is worth sharing: Scars
Some years ago on a hot summer day in south Florida a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house.
In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he ran out the back door, leaving behind shoes, socks, and shirt as he went. He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, an alligator was swimming toward the shore.
His mother in the house was looking out the window saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In utter fear, she ran toward the water, yelling to her son as loudly as she could.
Hearing her voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the alligator reached him. From the dock, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the alligator snatched his legs. That began an incredible tug-of-war between the two.
The alligator was much stronger than the mother, but the mother was much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard her screams, raced from his truck, took aim and shot the alligator.
Remarkably, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were
extremely scarred by the vicious attack of the animal, and, on his arms, were deep scratches where his mother's fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.
The newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy after the trauma, asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted his pant legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter, "But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my Mom wouldn't let go."
You and I can identify with that little boy. We have scars, too. No, not from an alligator, or anything quite so dramatic. But the scars of a painful past, Some of those scars are unsightly and have caused us deep regret.
But, some wounds, my friend, are because God has refused to let go. In the midst of your struggle, He's been there holding on to you. You are a child of God. He wants to protect you and provide for you in every way. But sometimes we foolishly wade into dangerous situations.
The swimming hole of life is filled with peril..., and we forget that the enemy is waiting to attack. That's when the tug-of-war begins..., and if you have the scars of His love on your arms be very, very grateful. He did not (and WILL not) let you go.

Hey! I was really early for my english class today..haha..maybe TOO early..but it's ok. We researched on our topics today and sat on I guess now usual chairs @ the LRC. Bj,Mae,Me,and Azel..hehe. After that class, I went to my bio lecture w/c was ok, after that I was basically done but had to wait for my sister 'til 1 but I was there 'til almost 2. I waited there w/ Bj..haha..we tried to do the 2 crossword puzzles and the unscramble onces..haha...pretty cool. We stayed @ the LRC w/ Aron and them for a while as well then left to go wait for my sis..Bj had to go to class so I was alone w/ this one girl by the bookstore..haha. When my sis came, we went to Chula Mall w/ her friend to get fitted for the bridesmaid's dress that she'll be wearing next month for her friend's wedding..funny, she tried on that dress when we were looking for my prom dress..hah.
After that, we dropped her friend off then headed to my aunt's. We all went to the Glenn Abbey Cemetry to go visit my uncle since it's his 2 year death anniversary. After that we went back to my aunt's to go eat, sing some karaoke, and talked about life w/ Moe. I got tired so I slept for a while 'til we had to go home.

Well, just decided to change my template..yay!!!..something preductive for a change right?..hahah..that's why I haven't been really bloggin lately..lol..I mean about life anyways. So yea, hope this is a 'lil better...I'll try to update more later.
Today by the way, I went @ the Bagel place w/ Mae and Bj. They had some pretty good bagel there!..I didn't buy any cause I already ate one on the way to school. I was 20 mins. late by the way due to the fact that I have no snooze on my alarm clock and my usual "5 more minutes!!" I woke up @ 6 and decided to get some more shut eye..then I woke up @ 6:45!!! my class was @ 7!..hahahaha...oh wells..I was debating whether to go to class or not but I went anyways cause I saw some notes on the board w/c looked like some helpful hints about our next essay!...I need to get a good grade on that. So yeah..went to both classes by the way..after class me, Mae, Eliza, Kim, Bj, and Jerome went to ColdStone. Jing met us up there by the way..most of us got some ice cream..I should've gotten the small one. I guess my eyes are hungrier then me. After that we all went our separate ways..Mae,Eliza,Kim, and I went to my house to watch The Red Violin. They didn't get to finish the movie but they left it here so I can finish it. The movie was overall good..I told my mom to watch it but she said she didn't really understand cause she was too busy @ the kitchen. Maybe next time..
What do you think men most desire?
My reply..though it doesn't make sense..
I think that men most desire is for their lives to be lived and fulfilled. In my opinion most men find ways to either find themselves through meeting someone, a girl in particular that will help them fulfill whatever needs that they need or through "playing the field" to see who the right one is for them. Maybe you can call it "filling in the empty space in us" because this leads to knowing that we have lived our lives.

Well, I'm just here @ the school's LRC trying to kill time while waiting for my dad. I'm not feeling all that well..I feel ok..but I feel sleepy or somewhat lightheaded..maybe it's the sudafed I took this morning but I dunno. Anyways, school was ok today..bio lecture and bio lab..Nikki wasn't there and Di had to leave early today so it was kida icky..but we had a "field trip" around the campus to see the leaves..haha..w/c was ok..time killer. After lab I wasn't sure where to go but I decided to go here so I wouldn't have to spend $ to buy food..maybe I should've gone to the librariy to get some sleep..hm..I might be coming down to something..but eh..hope not.
I guess that's bout it..my weekend by the way were ok..icky cause I was sick. Things I get irritated by when I have a cold:
When I can't breath cause my nose are all clogged up or when one nose is clogged up and one's not so I have to tilt sideways
When I get that sneezing feeling or sensation but nothing comes out resulting to having a teary eye! ;/
Trying to sneeze but can't..ahhh!!!
