Tis the month of February, the month of love for most people. I thought it would be best to talk about my first love. I grinned as I mentioned my first love back there. That is a good sign because I am happy to be talking about love. Love is the happiest feeling, don't you agree?
You love someone or something when you spend time with them. You beat all odds just to be with them on time; you calendar dates with these people, you block all other plans over the weekend when a loved one is suddenly in need of your presence. You waste your cellphone load to call them and give them comfort. You do errands for them, beyond expectations. You are selfless in most aspects of your life at the beck and call of a loved one.
We sacrifice for love. We ignore the words of other people; we reach for the stars, we promise the moon, the earth and the sky; anything for love.
There is this one song that keeps playing in my ipod and it talks about my first love. Mi Corazon by Don Moen. It is a Spanish word literally meaning "My Heart".
The contents of my heart is my first love. The biggest portion of that heart belongs to God's people. I love my God and one way to show that love for him is to be loving towards other people; He's creation! This is the reason why as a young kid, I tried to please everyone. (But later on I learned that we cannot please everybody). When you love, you can't hurt and when you can't hurt, this could be a better place to live in. Mother Teresa once said that: “If you judge people, you have no time to love them.”
I may not be as tender as Mother Teresa but we can love as much tender as we could. Spread love!
Mi Corazon lyrics by Don Moen
My heart is filled with songs of praise
You gave me hope, You made a way
Now I long to live in Your presence
For all my days
Chorus
My soul sings, my spirit shouts
With every breath I'm crying out
I want to live for You alone
You have captured my heart, mi corazon
Lord, I give You my whole heart, mi corazon
Amazing grace has recued me
You paid the price, You set me free
I will sing Your praises forever
My Savior and King
Bridge
I will give You glory, tell the wondrous story
How You rescued me
I'm the guilty one, but You sacrificed Your Son
Your One and only
Now I stand before You blameless and holy

Lyrics of the song
GOOD VIBRATIONS by the Beach Boys
I, I love the colorful clothes she wears
And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair
I hear the sound of a gentle word
On the wind that lifts her perfume through the air
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's giving me excitations
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
(Oom bop, bop, good vibrations)
She's giving me excitations
(Oom bop, bop, excitations)
Good good good good vibrations
(Oom bop, bop)
She's giving me excitations
(Oom bop, bop, excitations)
Good good good good vibrations
(Oom bop, bop)
She's giving me excitations
(Oom bop, bop, excitations)
Close my eyes
She's somehow closer now
Softly smile, I know she must be kind
When I look in her eyes
She goes with me to a blossom world
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's giving me excitations
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
(Oom bop, bop, good vibrations)
She's giving me excitations
(Oom bop, bop, excitations)
Good good good good vibrations
(Oom bop, bop)
She's giving me excitations
(Oom bop, bop, excitations)
Good good good good vibrations
(Oom bop, bop)
She's giving me excitations
(Oom bop, bop, excitations)
(Ahhhhhhh)
(Ah my my what elation)
I don't know where but she sends me there
(Ah my, my, what a sensation)
(Ah my, my, what elations)
(Ah my, my, what)
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations
A happenin' with her
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations
A happenin' with her
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations
A happenin'
Ahhhhhhhh
Good good good good vibrations
(Oom bop, bop, I'm pickin' up good vibrations)
She's giving me excitations
(Oom bop, bop, excitations)
Good good good good vibrations
(Oom bop, bop)
She's na, na ...
Na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na
Do, do, do, do, do,
Do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do,
Do, do, do
My Immortal - Evanescence
First of all thanks to azlyrics.com for the lyrics below. This is the first time I read the lyrics in its entirety. I just read some fragments of the lyrics in the videoke.
I was with my co-workers last night. Just the ordinary bonding moments. Or so I thought.
I am such a magnet to friends with love problems. She is going through some relationship problems and I can't bear to see her tears falling. As much as I could, I just brushed the sadness building up inside me just the sight of her crying. I just smiled and told her, "You don't have to cry." And something tells me, she still loves the person but she just can't breath a second longer with her partner.
Love is such a crazy feeling and there is no one answer to a question about love. I wish there was... biblically, there is. That is my answer. But love is unfathomable!
As we parted ways, we hugged and she said "I'm sorry to have ruined the party" and, of course, she said "thanks for listening." I love to listen. That is one of my skills, aside from giving out of this world kind of advise. So I tapped her back, and I said my thanks. She is so sweet she whispered back "I love you friend". And I think I said, "I know" which is just my usual response to unexpected "I love yous" for me. haha! I love my friends and you are extra special.
Well my friend, this is my song for you. I know you will get through this. I'm just here buddy!

"My Immortal"
I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
Your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
[Chorus:]
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
[Chorus]
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along
[Chorus]
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
Your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
[Chorus:]
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have

By your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
[Chorus]
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along
[Chorus]
Yakety Yak - Coasters

You rise early in the morning to prepare to go to work. Work! Yes, that is a reality of life. We will have to work. Another reality here will be a messy place of work, not to mention the crazy people you get to see, talk to and argue with everyday! Other than people, we have our furniture, of course! And yes, we are in the modern age so don't forget the computer units and tables and your so-called "haven".
You wake up early, ride the train or bus then arrive to your workplace that looks like this:
And then suddenly you will say YUCK! That can be translated in a song by the Coasters to the tune of YAKETY Yak! You will regret waking up in the morning, you will regret scrubbing off the dirt from your body when you hit the shower because as soon as you enter that kind of office, you will sure to collect more dirt today than yesterday!
If you are a person who loves spaghetti, you may not like it anymore when you find spaghetti-like wires dangling around your workplace. Another YUCK!

Yakety Yak - Coasters
Take out the papers and the trash
Or you don't get no spendin' cash
If you don't scrub that kitchen floor
You ain't gonna rock and roll no more
Yakety yak (don't talk back)
Just finish cleanin' up your room
Let's see that dust fly with that broom
Get all that garbage out of sight
Or you don't go out Friday night
Yakety yak (don't talk back)
You just put on your coat and hat
And walk yourself to the laundromat
And when you finish doin' that
Bring in the dog and put out the cat
Yakety yak (don't talk back)
Don't you give me no dirty looks
Your father's hip; he knows what cooks
Just tell your hoodlum friend outside
You ain't got time to take a ride
Yakety yak (don't talk back)
Yakety yak, yakety yak
Yakety yak, yakety yak
Yakety yak, yakety yak
Yakety yak, yakety yak

I wanna be with You - Mandy Moore
What a day to post my first this 2012! The year 2011 hasn't even ended but I was already thinking of being with you for the most of 2012. I was deprived... or I deprived myself of any vanity in 2011 in preparation for that bar exam. As much as I want to be with you then, I could hardly do it. In fact, I barely wrote my blog entries.
I will try to be with you more often. That is my focus for this year. So please bear with me. I also want to tell you that I like this song because I love Mandy Moore. I love her pretty face and her captivating smile. It just makes me smile remembering her cutee-cutee smile in the movie "A Walk to Remember".
For now, here is the lyrics.
Lyrics of the song
I Wanna Be With You
I try but I can't seem to get myself to think of
Anything but you
Your breath on my face your warm gentle kiss I taste
The truth, I taste the truth
We know what I came here for
So I won't ask for more
[Chorus]
I want to be with you
If only for a night
To be the one who's in your arms to hold you tight
I want to be with you
There's nothing more to say
There's nothing else I want more than to feel this way
I want to be with you
So I'll hold you tonight like I would if you were mine
To hold forevermore
And I'll savor each touch that I've wanted so much
To feel before, to feel before
How beautiful it is
Just to be like this
[Chorus]
Oh, baby
I can't fight this feeling anymore
Drives me crazy when I try to
So call my name and take my hand
Can you make my wish, baby, your command?
Yeah
[Chorus]

MULI - Gary Valenciano
Another song translation for all of you guys!
I love Gary V and I am sharing this wonderful love song with you.
Enjoy!
Lyrics of the song
MULI (AGAIN)
by Gary V & Regine Velasquez
Muling hinahanap (Searching again)
Ang dating paglingap na mula sa'yo (My previous longing for you)
Muling umaasa (Hoping again)
Sa dating nadaramang laan sa'yo (For my previous feelings saved for you)
Mula ng magwakas, tapusin ang lahat (Since it ended, all is finished)
Ay naritong nagmamahal pa rin (I am still here loving you)
Pa'no kaya maibabalik (How to bring back)
Ang damdamin mong dati (Your feelings before)
[Regine]
'Di ba't ikaw pa (Wasn't it you?)
Unang may nais na tapusin na (Who first wanted to end it)
Habang panahon (All this time)
Pinilit limutin ka hanggang ngayon (I tried to forget you until now)
Mula ng magwakas, tapusin ng lahat (Ever since it ended, everything is done/finished)
Hindi maikakailang ikaw pa rin (It cannot be denied that it's still you)
Papa'no kaya maibabalik Ang hangaring dati (How to bring back my intentions before?)
[Both]
Refrain:
Ba't di nagkatagpo (Why didn't we meet?)
Bakit tuloy nagkalayo (Why did we eventually part?)
Bakit mayro'n pang nadarama (Why do I still have feelings)
Gayong hindi na tayong dalawa (Since it's no longer the two of us)
Bakit magwawakas (Why would it end)
Pag-ibig na wagas (A love that is eternal)
Ma'ri bang mangyari pang ibigin pang...(Can it be that you will love me...)
Muli (Again)
[Regine]
Kung muling iibigin (If I will love you again)
H'wag sanang lisanin nang tulad noon (I hope you will not leave me like before)
Pagluha'y di na kaya (I can no longer bear crying)
H'wag na sanang isipin nang tulad gayon (Don't think of anything like that anymore)
[Gary]
Hanggang sa nagwakas, (Until it ended)
Natapos ang lahat (Everything was done)
Ay naritong nagmamahal pa rin (And I am still here loving you)
Paano pa ba maibabalik (How can I bring back)
Ang hangaring dati (my intentions before)
(Ma'ri pa kayang muli....) (Can it still happen again?)
[Both]
REFRAIN:
Ba't di nagkatagpo (Why didn't we meet?)
Bakit tuloy nagkalayo (Why did we eventually part?)
Bakit mayro'n pang nadarama (Why do I still have feelings)
Gayong hindi na tayong dalawa (Since it's no longer the two of us)
Bakit magwawakas (Why would it end)
Pag-ibig na wagas (A love that is eternal)
Ma'ri bang mangyari pang ibigin pang...(Can it be that you will love me...)Muli (Again)
Nandito lang ako (I am just here)
(bago lumayo sa pilling mo) - before i depart from you
Higit kang kailangan kailan man (I need you more forevermore)
(hanggang kailan kaya naman) - Until when?
Mahal kita (I love you)
(tila)- as if
hanap ka (Searching for you)
(sana) - I hope
(tunay kaya ito) - is this real?
Minsan pang bigyan ng daan (Give way/chance once more)
Pag-ibig na sa'yo nakalaan (My love that's saved for you)
[Both]

For the Longest Time - Billy Joel
I can't believe I found time to blog these days!
I miss visiting my friends at entrecard, I missed updating my profile, I missed earning online. I am still at a lost with Google Adsense when I said I am going to master Adsense.
I have forgotten how things were before I plunged into a legal pit I have gone through. No, I wasn't the subject of any prosecution or legal battles in court. I was trying to be a lawyer for the past 4 years and more of my life. The bar exam had just been concluded and I am still at a plethora on how the heck was I able to at least survive it! Well, surviving the bar exam was my goal, not so much on passing it. Oh well, I am sounding so pessimistic already.
Yet another pessimism in me shouts! I am still an amateur here in the blog world despite my blogging for more than three years already.
Hah! For the Longest Time indeed!
Billy Joel
Oh oh oh oh (the longest) for the longest time
Oh oh oh (the longest) for the longest time
If you say goodbye to me tonight
There would still be music left to write
What else could I do?
I'm so inspired by you
That hasn't happened for the longest time
Once I thought my innocence was gone
Now I know that happiness goes on
That's where you found me and
When you put your arms around me
I haven't been there for the longest time
Oh oh oh oh (the longest) for the longest time
Oh oh oh (the longest) for the longest time
And that voice you're hearing in my heart
Ain't the greediest miracle of all
It's how I need you
And how you needed me too
That hasn't happened for the longest time
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/t/the+overtones/the+longest+time_20906400.html ]
Maybe this won't last very long
But you feel so right
And I could be wrong
Maybe I've been hoping too hard
But I've come this far
And it's more than I hoped for
Who knows how much further will go on?
Maybe I'll be sorry when you're gone
I'll take my chances
I forgot how nice romance is
I haven't been there for the longest time
I had second thoughts all this time
I said to myself hold on to your heart
Now I know the woman that you are
You're wonderful so far
And it's more than I hoped for
I don't care what consequence it brings
I have been a fool for lesser things
I want you so bad
I think you ought to know that
I intend to hold you for the longest time
Oh oh oh oh (the longest) for the longest time
Oh oh oh (the longest) for the longest time
Oh oh oh (the longest) for the longest time
Oh oh oh the longest, for the longest time
