however, that didn't work too.
don't ask me why. (",)

would you be happy... when you surrender your happiness for that of the one you love? when you sacrifice everything and there is nothing in return... would you still be happy?
if you said yes, i would admit i think you're stupid. but come to think of it, if you said no then you can't say you even loved at all....
i took the above passage from a friend's weblog... it is originally entitled "sweet surrender." i've made my revisions, but it speaks of one thing, all the same...
these go to all my detractors and/or critics.
sabi niyo nagpapakatanga ako. oo, aaminin ko na pati ako, alam ko at tanggap ko nang wala na akong pag-asa diyan. tanggap ko na ring nagpapakatanga ako. siguro nga dapat lumayo na ako sa ganitong pilosopiya... pero huli na ang lahat. mas bababa lang tingin ko sa sarili ko kapag tinigil ko na ang katangahang ito. sinimulan ko na, ba't di na ituloy diba? sige, tanga na ako, pero ayoko nang lumala pa. naiintindihan niyo sana.
i hope this is only one of the few times i'll speak write portions of entries in the vernacular language. thank you... good day/night to all.

it was just about now when i noticed that people write things about themselves in the profile section of their online diaries. then i looked at my former blog sites, and, it was like... whoa, am i really that weird?
so maybe it's time for a bit of change, a touch of conventionalism. for once, at least.
well, you see the guy in the picture? yeah, that spectacled boy running in haste? that's supposed to be me, j. gabriel de leon y limpin... what does j stand for, you ask? it's for me to know and for you to find out if you still don't know.
i'm a 16-year old boy who wears a pair of glasses, sports unkempt hair, and usually dons loose clothes. i might look a bit plump in the drawing, but in actuality i'm a tall, dark, skinny, frail guy who always forgets to drink his milk and take his breakfast. up to know i still wonder how come i stand at five-feet-eight-inches but weigh only 102 pounds...
way back then, i was a small, plump kid who showed a lot of promise. during parties, my mom and dad would usually strut around and boast of how intelligent, how healthy, how handsome i was. for eight or so years, that had been the case. i got my share of respect, like this little prince...
then came a heartbreak, and high school.
inexplicably, i suddenly became a complacent and idle guy who fell in love with my personal computer too much, even to the point of forgetting if i already had dinner. i was transformed into a student ridiculously full of potential but never getting to use the stuff. i developed a very healthy sleeping habit that made me garner the honorable distinction of being the student earliest for the nth class.
high school went on, heartbreaks pursued at will, and down to oblivion went that once promising young kid. so much for the pride of my parents.
today, i still look back to him. in fact, i'm trying to revive him, after four years of dormancy, or something more like stagnation. impossible, yes, but it's worth a try. too late, maybe, but i'll prove that it's not.
