Carlsberg Brewery Launched A Football Web Channel

It's my come back post here in the blogging world, ehehe ^_^ been very busy with my task for quiet two months now. While surfing, I found this web-tv channel about football game. Very Intertaining! :D

American Football is a tough contact sport that dominates the American sporting scene
and is gaining popularity in Europe. It is a game requiring all-around physical fitness. Players have to be fast, strong and proficient for the basic skills and techniques of the game. This is one of the world's favorite game now a days.


Some people may prefer to play this game in PlayStation (PS2) or watch via web-tv. Recently, Carlsberg Brewery launched a football Web-TV Channel. www.partofthegame.tv, It has 5 channels showing all aspects about football games from the classic football matches to life as a fan. If you are a football fan
you don't want to miss the the video clips about football funnies and rituals from one of the five channels. There
are many channels that offers football sport for the viewers but Carlsberg Brewery wev-tv is most preferred for Football Mania like me who wanted to ease boredom in anyway and probably this could be my favorite football channel to watch.

A Fighting Chance...^_^




"Unexpected Opportunity"


In the quest of life, people often look for opportunities and make decisions. However, opportunities sometimes arrive where least expected. This painting is a representation of this unusual encounter between an individual and a never before considered opportunity. Developing the ability to recognize opportunities where they are least expected is a virtual guarantee of success.







"Those who try to do something and fail are infinitely better than those who try nothing and succeed." --Lloyd Jones


This is it! hehehe (big grin). I'm so damn busy right now with my training on php programming. Another chance again, I hope I can make it...and I hope GOD will grant me a relief for every stress I have to encounter and a sweet song for every sigh..

-- Being a 4 year Computer Science grad, It's my greatest dream to become a computer programmer. Thus, I'm always given an opportunity, but indeed I failed for a second time that life has offered me..quiet sad really...(sigh). I was once hired as an Application Developer with a certain prestigious firm here in Davao City (A licensed Microsoft Business Partner Company) and it lasted for a couple of months. That was an achievement for me as part of the company filled with a highly competent IT Professionals. The fact that I wasn't happy with my job, that time I'm facing with distress and affliction circumstances -- a family problems that leads me out of focus and concentration with my job..I did my best I know, but admittedly it's not my best at all..I didn't make it and I decided to quit with a heavy heart ..and here comes another chance for me offered by my previous client, a programming position still but I just let those chances and opportunity passed by..hayy..and now here' s another chance again, and this is it! I hope I can make it this time..Good luck to me..(Big grin)

Lessons I learned From A 110 Year Old Atlanta's Doctor of Ages

I came across this very inspiring story of an old Doctor while surfing the net. Wow! I bow my head, that's all I can say.. what a WOMAN of Wisdom! Just by reading her story in different articles I've recently searched, I ponder and came to realize that all of us can take life to the upper most limit and win. As simple as her words are: 'The secret to a long and healthy life is to live with a little common sense- Don't abuse your body and enjoy what you do.' She inspired hundreds of children and parents she cared for throughout the years. Her award winning wisdom and practical insight to dealing with children's health is of great benefit to young moms.



"When a mother says, `What makes my children so bad?' Dr. Denmark says, `Go look in the mirror.' Little children become like the environment they live in."

Dr. Leila Daughtry Denmark was born in February 1, 1898 in Bulloch County, Georgia. Shes one of America's Oldest and experienced Pediatrician and take note she's also the longest practicing Doctor in the United States. It is estimated that she personally treated over 250,000 patients over 75 years of active practice.

The secret to her incredible longevity and healthy life, she said, is simple. "Most of all, you have to love what you're doing. Anything you have to do is work. Anything you love to do is play and Don't abuse your body"

Along the way, Denmark helped develop the whooping cough vaccine, won countless awards and citations, and volunteered a day's work every week for 56 years at the Central Presbyterian Clinic in Atlanta to give needed care to poor people. Some parents travel hundreds of miles to have their children treated by a doctor with 70 years of experience. She's a wise sage and has written a book about her child rearing philosophies called "Every Child Should Have a Chance", published in 1971.

When people asked her when she'll intend to retire She answered "When I don't see well enough, hear well enough or think well enough, then I'll quit," "And when I go, I hope it will be right here in this office." Dr. Leila Denmark retired from medical practice in 2001, before her 104th birthday due to loss of vision but still conducts phone consultations for children and best known for her parenting and child rearing advice and her old-fashioned ways suit patients just fine. She turned 110 years old last Feb. 1, 2008 and Currently, she is the 67th oldest person in the world, according to the short list of super-centenarians (people at least 110 years old or older.)


Here are some of the wit and wisdom of 110-year-old Leila Denmark, I hope you guys can relate...

  • - Older women make good mothers. They know they didn't have anything until they got that husband and children.

  • - Women should be able to do everything a man does, but she shouldn't neglect her baby to do it.

  • - Every woman on earth should be able to have a professional life if she wants.

  • - Go out and do it, but do not bring a baby into the world and desert it.

  • - I don't belong to any of those HMOs. They have wrecked the medical profession.

  • - There's two things you can't fool -- a dog and a child. They know if you love them.

  • - I've never given a dose of cough medicine in my life. I try to find out what's making them cough instead of shutting them up.'

  • - My whole life I've been trying to teach mothers how to take care of their babies. Then they never have to take them to the doctor.

  • - Don’t abuse your body with junk food.

  • - Drinking cow’s milk is dangerous.
  • - Do your best to help others.
  • - Too much sugar is not a good thing.
  • - A sense of humor is very important for longevity.
  • - Never bring a child into the world unless you’re willing to take care of them.
  • - Children are not getting parental guidance and it’s wrecking this nation.
  • - Kids in daycare are deprived of attention and catch too many illnesses.
  • - We need to think about everything we eat and drink.
  • - Let’s do is easier than do.
  • - Never raise your hand or your voice to a child.
  • - Parenting has gone out of style.
  • - Children and adults should eat fruit instead of drinking fruit juices.
  • - Drink only water.
  • - The greatest change she’s seen in her lifetime has been the neglect of little children.
  • - " Anything on earth you want to do is play. Anything on earth you have to do is work. Play will never kill you, work will. I never worked a day in my life." - Dr. Leila Denmark, 100, USA's oldest practicing physician.

Do You Have A Dirty Mind?

What is this picture all about? Answer as quick as a wink without meditating. See for yourself...




You probably have a dirty mind if you recognized something other than a lamp! Do you?? ^-^




A dirty mind would perceive it as:
--> A lady with an open legs wearing an underwear.

If he/she is not a dirty minded person:
--> A round lamp with in front of a wall and a flower on the right side of it.

When A Computer Programmer Fall Inlove?

I've got this article again from my friend fojie, haha ( You have a lot of funny and the nicest post girl, thanks for this one..) This is actually a post for my honey and pretty sure he can relate this cute, "tricky-programming code " love qoutes. FYI, He's a Computer Programmer in a certain Govt. Institution..hehe and not for bragging He has that ingenuity character when it comes to programming design. Well hon I'm "Proud as a Peacock" of you..Keep it up!

Here it Goes . . .
"You are a field in my class. You will always be protected."

"Are you an exception? Let me catch you."

"You are my increment operator. You make my value increase."

"You are my initializer: without you, my life would point to nothing (null)."

"I am a BufferedReader. You input meaning into my life."

"You are my semicolon; always present in everything I do."

"You are the JDK (Java Development Kit) in my life. I won't compile without you."

"If I were a method, you must be my parameter, because I will always need you."

"Can you be my private variable? I want to be the only one with access to you."

"We are an aggregation of classes: one cannot exist without the other."

"public class YourWorld extends MyWorld"

"My love is a for loop without the increment operator-- infinitive, non-terminating, and difficult to stop once it starts running."

"Let me be the 'throws Exception' to your 'public static void main (String[] args)'. I will accept whatever you give me."

"[me != me]. [me += you]."

"You are my superclass: you define what I can do."

"Buti pa ang data type, may value."

"Buti pa ang Swing components, may Listeners."

"String myHeart = "I Love You";

String[] herWords = myHeart.split( " ");

return null;"

"My love for you comes with no strings attached."

"Are you a double? The thought of you always floats inside my head."

"My love for you cannot be measured with an int, not with a long, and not even with an array. It is out of bounds and infinite.... "

"Di na tayo kailangang i-cast pa; magkatype na tayo, e..."





Idioms: proud as a peacock
- Having a very high opinion of oneself, filled with or showing excessive self-esteem. This simile alludes to the male peacock, with its colorful tail that can be expanded like a fan, which has long symbolized vanity and pride.

10 Signs That You're Dating a Commitment-Ready Guy

Are you ready for a relationship that is going to lead somewhere without you being led on? It's time to start weeding out the commitment phobics and put your time and effort into men that are looking for the kind of relationship you want -- one that has a future. If you're interested in getting married, ignore these at your own risk. Here's what to look for:

1. His friends are married
--> If you are interested in a guy, check out his friends' left hands to see if they have wedding rings on. “Research has show that if his friends are already married, he's more likely to get married.” If all of his friends are still single and in the "party-with-the-boys" phase, that's a bad sign.

2. He's financially secure
--> Studies show that men who own a home are more marriage-ready. A man who is generally financially stable, and has his ducks in a row, feels marriage is a practical next step for him.

3. He pursues you
--> The guy who is commitment-ready is going to initiate doing things with you. If you're emailing him and he takes days to email you back, if you have to text him to find out where he is, if you are always calling him, you're chasing a man who's probably not marriage-material.

4. He's willing to wait
--> Yes, research is telling us what we already know: If a guy gets to know you before getting intimate, he is more likely to commit.

5. He watches DVDs with you when you're sick
--> Taking care of you when you're sick shows that this guy isn't just in it for the fun and sex. If he wants to be with you in bad times, it's a sign he's in it for the long haul.

6. He gets to know your friends and family
--> A guy who is thinking long-term wants to truly get to know you. Seeing you interact with your family and friends helps him learn where you come from and more about who you are. The flip side of it is that he will also want you to get to know him! He'll want to see if you fit in with his family and friends. A guy who keeps you separate from the important people in his life is just playing around.

7. He says, "we" instead of "me"
--> When he switches from "me" to "we", that's a sign he's committing to you at a deeper level. If your guy is all, "I", "me", and "my" instead of "we" and "us" in conversations after you've been dating a while, his mindset is still in single guy mode.

8. He's not afraid of compromise
--> “A commitment-ready guy is going to ask your opinion, consult you about decisions he needs to make, and has the ability to meet you half-way.”

9. He doesn't need excuses

---> Commitment-phobic guys always have an excuse about why they can't be with you on Saturday night, why they didn't call, and why they aren't ready for a relationship right now. A commitment-ready guy doesn't need excuses, he just needs you.

10. He likes being in a long-term relationship
--> Some men like being in a monogamous relationship and some don't. The sooner you realize and accept this the better. If he complains all the time about needing space, treats you like a giant burden instead of a gift, and keeps talking about taking things slow, he's telling you he's not ready for a commitment. On the other hand, if he's done with the party scene, enjoys your "couple time" together, and has a strong sense of family, you've found a commitment-ready guy.

The World's Richest Man - Warren Edward Buffet

I found this article from fojie Apple's bloggie. (FYI Fojie was one of my officemate before at Lane System, she's also a friend of mine and not for bragging, She's one of the best female Computer Programmer I've ever known.) As it was stated, Like hers this article inspires me too and perhaps to everyone of us who knows Warren Buffet, now known to be the Richest Man in the World! Yes He is! He was ranked by Forbes Magazine as the richest person in the world as of February 11, 2008. Well, who anybody else in this planet owns an estimated $62 billion bulk of money? Nobody else but me! --- in my dreams!..hehehe ^_^ kidding aside. No one else but Warren Buffet, after 13 years of Bill Gates' being on top of the World's Billionaires that honor now belongs to him.




"I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence, I can reach for; perfection is God's Business"
There was a one hour interview on CNBC with Warren Buffet, the richest man who has donated $31 billion to charity.



Here are some very interesting aspects of his life:

1. He bought his first share at age 11 and he now regrets that he started too late!

2. He bought a small farm at age 14 with savings from delivering newspapers.

3. Still lives in the same small 3-bedroom house in mid-town Omaha ,that he bought after he got married 50 years ago. He says that he has everything he needs in th at house. His house does not have a wall or a fence.

4. He drives his own car everywhere and does not have a driver or security people around him.

5. He never travels by private jet, although he owns the world's largest private jet company.

6. His company, Berkshire Hathaway, owns 63 companies. He writes only one letter each year to the CEO's of these companies, giving them goals for the year. He never holds meetings or calls them on a regular basis. He has given his CEO's only two rules.

  • Rule number 1: Do not lose any of your share holder's money.

  • Rule number 2: Do not forget rule number 1.

7. He does not socialize with the high society crowd. His past time after he gets home is to make himself some pop corn and watch Television.

8. Bill Gates, the world's former richest man met him for the first time only 5years ago. Bill Gates did not think he had anything in common with Warren Buffet. So he had scheduled his meeting only for half hour. But when Gates met him, the meeting lasted for ten hours and Bill Gates became a devotee of Warren Buffet.

9. Warren Buffet does not carry a cell phone, nor has a computer on his desk.
His advice to young people: "Stay away from credit cards and invest in yourself and Remember:

A. Money doesn't create man; it is the man who created money.
B. Live your life as simple as you are.
C. Don't do what others say, just listen to them, but do what you feel good.
D. Don't go for brand name; just wear those things in which u feel comfortable.
E. Don't waste your money on unnecessary things; just spend on those who really are in need.
F. After all it' s your life; so why give chance to others to rule your life."


So rare...So Often! A hundreds of salutes for you Mr. Warren Edward Buffet....^-^ ^-^

Korean Novela Fanatic


I've always been a koreanovela fanatic since then and one of those Korean drama series that hook me up is
"My Girl", wheew! Absolutely fantastic for me. It has been a part of my life that I shouldn't miss a day to watch it, I mean every night that was aired in Philippine Television. My Girl is a combination of romantic love story and comedy with great leads starring Lee Dae Hae and Lee Dong Wook. Very funny indeed! and pretty sure that you'll have to prepare a hell of stomach exercise session while watching..hahaha
I must say that If you’re looking for something to make you laugh and fall in love with a some kind of drama, then this is definitely it. ^ . ^. It had the makings of a series that you'd want to watch over and over again: pleasant comedy, enjoyable banter, romantic story, and a healthy serving of drama. Well I just really love it and I don't have any idea of what topic I have to post here in my blog so I remembered this meme..haha Honestly I'm a typical silent person and I don't prepare sharing my secrets and thoughts to the public and I choose friends to share it with though. Well anyway, back to the main topic...read on..---- >








Lee Dae Hae
was one of the lead stars in My Girl and Green Rose. She's really my all time fave Korean actress. I think the word 'beautiful' is an understatement for her. She is beyond beautiful, and I think even drop-dead gorgeous would be a poor replacement for her. hehe














I've got to share some pictures I grabbed from the net..See how pretty she is! ---->

Goodbye's (The Saddest Word )

Source: http://www.juansepulveda.com/Visions.htm.

"Visions of a Reminiscent Soul"

"The eye as the window to the soul reflects the sadness that lies within. Within the eye’s iris one can see a person remembering a loved one who lies in the grave. A sorrow brought by the loss of a loved one. Here the artist, in addition to expressing his own sadness, empathizes with everyone who has lost a loved one or something important. It serves as motivation to passionately pursue one’s dreams and never forget the positive and negative lessons in life. The artist created this painting while grieving the loss of his mother to cancer, which moved him to adopt a renewed passion for living a fruitful life."


----> I was just surfing the net and I found this painting of Juan “One” Sepúlveda. It did captured my heart as I read the explanations of his piece and somehow, it reminds me of my lost beloved mom. It's been four years since she lefts us and I (my family) misses her so much. There's no such hurtful things in this world than losing one of the most important person in your life. And with this song...hurtfully dedicated to my mom..:(



Goodbye's (The Saddest Word) - Celine Dion

Mamma
You gave life to me
Turned a baby into a lady

Mamma
All you had to offer
Was the promise of a lifetime of love

Now I know
There is no other
Love like a mother's love for her child

And I know
A love so complete
Someday must leave
Must say goodbye

Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye

Mamma
You gave love to me
Turned a young one into a woman

Mamma
All I ever needed
Was a guarantee of you loving me

'Cause I know
There is no other
Love like a mother's love for her child

And it hurts so
That something so strong
Someday will be gone, must say goodbye

Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye

But the love you gave me will always live
You'll always be there every time I fall
You are to me the greatest love of all
You take my weakness and you make me strong
And I will always love you 'til forever comes

And when you need me
I'll be there for you always
I'll be there your whole life through
I'll be there this I promise you, Mamma

Mamma, I'll be
I'll be your beacon through the darkest nights
I'll be the wings that guide your broken flight
I'll be your shelter through the raging storm
And I will love you 'till forever comes

Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye

'Till we meet again...
Until then...
Goodbye

Send My Love To Heaven

How my heart aches every time I read this story over and over again. It's quiet too long but never did it bored me from the start up to end..Well, all I can say is loving is so hurtful sometimes.;)

read on..
--------------------->>


What can I say about a girl I loved since I was ten..... that I love the way she laughs at me when I commit mistakes, the way she fusses over silly things and even the way she cries over some sad silly late night show? Somehow, I wished I could have told her that I love her but now there's no hope in doing so. For now, it's rather too late- too late for me to do so.

She was my best friend and I have known her since we were small. She knew all my secrets, which reveals my feelings for her, that I love her not only because she's pretty and smart but also the way she laughs at everything and the way she sees life and love.

I could still remember the first time we met; I was five years old then. It was one windy afternoon having no one to play with except for my best friend, Troy. He and his family just moved out to transfer at a neighboring state because his father got promoted. And so I climbed up our tree house, I saw a moving truck coming down the street. I watched it approaching and noticed a family station wagon following it. It stopped in front of the house and out came a family. I was about to glance away when out came the loveliest girl I've seen. She was four years old that time but then even at an early age she was a beauty. She had long curly hair, which reached almost to her waist. She had fair complexion and eyes which could make a man lose his heart into them. I continued to watch her when suddenly she looked up and saw me watching them in the tree house window. I was about to duck when she smiled and waved her hand. I waved back then watched in amazement as I saw her running towards the tree house. So I went to the edge of the ladder and said, "Would you like to come up?" she answered, "May I?" So I help her climb up and when she reached the top she then turned to me and said, "By the way, my name's Sam, what's yours?" I answered, “My name is Christopher but then you can call me Chris." She smiled and said, “Well I like your name. Hey your tree house's neat!" then I replied, “Thanks! Troy and I made this. This used to be our hide out. We used to goof around, play ball and go biking together. He was my best friend and I kind of miss him you know." She smiled and said "I'm here now, we could do things you do with troy and I could be your new best friend too. I never had a boy for a friend before so it could be exciting to have one. I could learn how to play ball and I have my bicycle so we could go biking together. Now how does that sound to you?" I smiled and said, "Well that sounds good enough." Then she held her hand and said, "It's a deal then!" So that's how it started.

So we became best friends and it was kind of strange at first for she was a girl and there are things which I was little bit hesitant to indulge her like catching frogs, swimming in the lake and climbing trees, but then she tried and did everything just to please me. There was even a time when she fell off the bike trying to catch up with me in a race we had and I was the one who bandaged her scraped knee. I could still remember the time when she hit the window of our neighbor when we were playing baseball and it was I who talked to Mr. Chambers and promised to pay for the damage, which meant having to loose a week’s allowance. I remembered the time when I fell off the tree when I tried to rescue a little kitten because Sam was near to tears when she saw the helpless kitten trapped in a branch. I even fought with the tough guy when they teased Sam and made her cry and I ended up having a black eye and a bruised cheek. I remember Sam crying as she placed an ice bag over the damaged eye and later gave it a get-well kiss. I did everything to please her and gave everything her little heart desires.

The lake was our favorite hang out. We had our Saturday swim routine. We would pack food and later eat them under the big oak tree. There was a special branch in which the two of us could sit together and tell each other's dreams. She dreams of being a Ballerina and she knows my dream of becoming a doctor. She never laughs at my dreams and pursuits even if they were quite impossible. It made me like her even more.

As years went by, I noticed that my feelings towards her were slowly changing. Somehow, I thought it was just a simple crush case. But when I started thinking about her at night, dreaming of her and having the feeling of wanting to be with her all the time, I thought it was something different, something that made me feel strange, but then it was exhilarating feeling. It made me feel so alive. Whenever our hands touch, I could feel the tingling sensation in my spine. Once, when we were at the lake having our Saturday swim routine and as I carried her towards the water edge, I had the feeling of not wanting to let go. I just wanted that moment to continue hoping it would never end. I then realized I was slowly falling in love with my best friend.

Many times I tried to deny the feeling for I was scared to imagine what would happen if ever I'd try to tell her how I feel about her. I was scared because she might think that I'm taking advantage of her and our friendship. I was afraid of losing her so I just kept my feeling hidden.

We reached the age of fifteen and I noticed that Sam grew lovelier each day. How my heart aches wherever I see boys glance her way. I want to punch their noses as I watch them talking to her giving compliments, flowers and chocolates. There were times when I watch her at a distance mixed feelings of anger and hurt because it hurts so much to know that there were so many things I wanted to tell her but then I could not do so. There were so many presents which I long to give her but then I could not for she might see me only as a friend. I was also scared of letting her know how I feel about her as much as losing her.

Then one day, I just learned from a friend that she already had a boyfriend. At first, I tried to convince myself that it was just a rumor. Her boyfriend was Mark, a popular senior, who was the heartthrob of the campus. She, being the cheerleader was close to the basketball team which Mark was the captain. When I saw them walking together at the parking lot that afternoon, I watched her with my heart slowly breaking into pieces. I saw her wave at me but I just pretended not to see her for I was scared that she might see in my eyes the pain I'm feeling inside because of seeing her with another guy.

Those days that followed where the saddest days of my life. How my heart aches when I see her walk by me with him at her side. every time we meet in hallways and I see him around her, there's a feeling inside me that makes me want to grab her away from him. How it hurts to see the girl I long possess was now owned by somebody else. That special smile I long for her to cast on me was now casted on him as she passes by me she doesn’t know that I whisper the words "God how I love you."

Then one faithful day they broke up. She came too me that evening crying on my shoulder. They had a big fight and it ended up to their break up. Mixed feelings were scaring me inside. I was happy because she was free and maybe I would have the chance of telling her my true feelings for her but then I was feeling so bad because she is crying her heart out just for him. At that time, I was not quite sure of what I wanted to do.

So we found ourselves doing what we did in old days with our Saturday swim routine, spending time in our tree house. We still enjoyed doing childish pranks for we still are both young at heart.

So many chances I had for me to confess my feelings for her but still I couldn't bring myself to her for I was scared of losing her once more. I once lost her, now I could not bear of losing her again by telling her I love her. So I just kept my feelings even if it was bursting to be expressed from my aching heart.

It was a week from our JS Prom, we were seated at the branch of an oak tree drying ourselves after our afternoon swim when she said, "I was wondering Chris if you would like to be my partner?" It just got out of my wits for it was like a dream I never thought would happen. It took me awhile to answer her, "I thought there are so many boys who would die for you to be their partner?" So she turned away and quietly said, "Well I just thought I would like to spend that night with my best friend." Then she continued in a whisper I could barely hear, "Don't you want to die just like them to be my partner Chris?" I was too stunned to speak for it came close for me to blurt my feelings for her. We we're silent for a while until I finally whispered, "I would be happy to be your partner Sam." The she smiled and suddenly kissed my cheek. I could hardly contain the joy I felt that time. I saw her turned red and bowed her head. Suddenly she stood up and run towards the water saying, "Last one to reach the water treats to sundae fudge!" I ran slowed up so that I would lose which meant having to have her with me for another three hours or more.

Our Prom night came. I bought a new tuxedo and poured almost the entire bottle of perfume. I went to fetch Sam. Sam's mother greeted me and I went to sit in the living room waiting for her to come down. I was talking to her father when I heard her say, "How do I look?" I look up and saw her lovelier than ever in a strapless white dress with her hair flowing around her face. I stood up and opened my mouth but found out I could not find my voice. Then I got her hand shakily fastened the corsage around her wrist and whispered, "To the loveliest girl in the whole world." She then asked, “Is that true?" I nodded and she smiled and I smiled back then I turned to open the door for her.

When we arrived at the gymnasium we hardly recognized our classmates. Gone were the jeans and T-shirts. They were replaced with tuxedos and gowns. Then I held out her hand bowed and said," Would you give me the honor of your first dance?" She laughed and curtseyed. Then I led her to the dance floor.

It was like a dream coming true, a moment of enchantment. I was there dancing with the only girl I ever loved. She was smiling up to me, as we were slowly moving in a smooth gliding motion. I found myself lost as I stared down to her sparkling eyes. The curls of her long hair were like waves enhancing her beautiful face. There were so many things I wanted to tell her that moment. I wanted to tell that she was the most beautiful girl that night. I wanted to tell her that she would always be the beacon of light in my darkness, but what I wanted to tell her the most was that I love her. I drew up all my courage and bent to whisper it in her ear but suddenly the music stopped and the magic was gone. I came close to telling her, but still haven't done it.

We walked towards the table and found ourselves surrounded by friends. I asked her if she wanted a drink, she nodded and so I went to get one. It took me a long time to get one and when I returned to our table, she was gone. I asked her friend, Katie, where she was but she told me that she doesn't know. So I went and search for her.

As I was searching for her, I reached the garden. There I saw two silhouette figures outlined by the moon's silvery light. They were so close to each other. I could never describe the feeling I had when I recognized the white dress Sam was wearing that night. I just turned and left the gymnasium. Since that night, I avoided her. Many times she tried talking to me but I never gave her the chance to do so. I was afraid to hear her say that she loves Mark and not me. I would rather have left in ignorance of her true feelings for me than to hear from those dreaded words and feel my hope crush and my heart break. I didn't return her calls. I would not see her if she comes into our house. In the hallways, as she approaches I would go to another direction. It also hurts to do those things but then I thought that was the best way to forget her. Those months were tormenting but still I kept my pride.

The day of our graduation came. I was planning to take up medicine at a neighboring state and was to move out the next day. As the program ended, she approached me and handed me a rose. As she stared at me. There was something in her eyes I couldn't describe. There was sadness in them and when she smiled it wasn't the same smile she had. I wanted to hug her at that moment, tell her that I love her but then she turned and walked away from me.


So I moved out the next day as I planned. Luckily, I was accepted at the university. I concentrated with my studies but still I think of her at night. I was always wondering if she thinks of me too. I tried hard not to think of her but still I could not stop myself from loving her. Each achievement I have was done for her. I thought that if I will be successful one day, I would be able to tell her that I love her and by that time, I'm worthy of having her.


It was a year after our graduation when I decided to return home and see her again. I thought a year is too much for me not to see her and during the past year I felt like a person lost in the desert and only the sight of her could quench the thirst I have inside. As I got off the plane, I went home directly, desperate to get to her house desperate to see her, to hug her. Then I would tell her that I missed her and that I have loved her for a long time. This time I am determined to let her know my true feelings for her and I could not contain anymore the love I have for her.


I reached their house; I saw her older sister and I approached her. I smiled at her but I noticed she didn't smile back. I was confused for she used to be a cheerful lasy just like my dear Sam. I then asked," Hi Jen! I guess you're surprised why I'm here. Well I just want to visit you and I was also hoping to see Sam. I kind of miss her you know. Ummm.........bby the way have you seen her?" All I saw was sadness in her eyes as she replied quietly "Come follow me."


I was confused with the way she's acting but still I followed her. As we were walking, I was trying to indulge her in a conversation but just answered my questioned briefly. Then I realized that she was leading me to the direction of the lake. It was still the same as I left it, with the same oak tree Sam and I used to climb up. I smiled upon remembering the kiss Sam gave me when I agreed to be her partner. It's been one of the happiest days in my life and I realized that I missed Sam more than I thought. The Jen stopped walking and pointed to the tree. She then whispered, "There's Sam."


I looked at where she was pointing and saw a newly dug tomb with the name of the girl I ever loved. I could not believe at what I saw and desperately tried convincing myself that this is all just a nightmare and I would soon wake up.


I stared at Jenny in disbelief with her eyes searching for explanations and slowly started saying," It has been a week since she died. She died of Leukemia, but even though she was sick, she never stopped thinking about you. It was even your name she uttered before she died. She asked us to bury her here for she always regards this place as a place of LOVE. She said that this is where she had spent the happiest days and that was when she was with you. By the way, she also asked me to give you this." She handed me a parcel and with that she left.


I slowly opened the parcel and saw that it contained the dried orchid from the corsage I gave her for our prom. Then at the bottom I saw a letter. It was dated last month. I opened it with shaking hands and started reading........

******************************

I know by this time you read this letter I'm gone. I just want to tell you that I feel very lucky and thankful to God that I had a friend like you. I would also like you to know that I had left something inside, something I kept from you all these years. I love you Chris, not in a friendly way but as one who would feel like spending the rest of my life with. I have always loved you even from the start. I guess it just bloomed each day that's why the happiest days of my life was when you were by my side. You just don't know how I dreamed of you at night and wake up in the morning and dream no more for you are with me. When you are away, I can't stop crying because I'm afraid to think that you are with another girl. I just can't bear to see you with another girl. I just want you all to myself. I may sound selfish but that's how I feel. Each time you held me close to you was like a dream coming true for to be close to you and feel your heart beating next to mine was heaven. So many things I did so that you will learn to love me but I NEVER saw a hint. I did everything to please you because I love you so much that I even tried to full myself that you're in love with me too. So many nights I've cried when I think of myself unloved by you. Well you might think that what I'm saying are lies but, I tell you, my heart speaks the truth for I cannot bear telling a lie to the one I love.

I know you might be thinking of Mark but I just did that to make you jealous, to make you see me as a young woman, capable of loving and not as the little girl you used to play with. Sometimes I imagined that you were jealous and fooled myself that it was a sign that you feel something for me too. When Mark and I broke up and I came crying, I just did that to know how you would react and with that I'll know that you love me too. But I failed for you didn't give me any clue. When our prom night came, you just don't know how happy I was when you handed me the corsage and saying that I was the loveliest girl in the whole world. While we were dancing, I wanted so desperately to hear you say that you love me too but you NEVER did. When Mark came and pleaded me to give him a second chance, I was scared that you might see us talking. I didn't want you to get the wrong impression so I told him we would talk in the garden. There I explained to him that it's you whom I really love. What happened next was that I found you missing and later learned that you were searching for me, I just concluded that you saw us together. The next day, I tried to explain but then you never gave me a chance to do so. You continuously avoided me and never knew how much pain I've experienced that time. I felt the world crushing on me. In our Graduation day, when I approached you, I wanted to tell you how much I love you but I decided that I just couldn't do it. I could not bear to hear that all you feel for me is just brotherly hand of love. For I want you to love me as a woman and not as a girl or playmate. So I just turned away and left.


Now that saying I LOVE YOU might be too late, still I want you to know that I will always love you and my heart has always been and will be yours alone.


P.S.
Think of me sometimes.... and always remember that loving you was the best thing that ever happened in my life.


************************************

I felt my tears falling as I folded the letter. I wanted to shout out to let her know that I love her, if not as much, but more than she did for me. I love her more than anything in this world. I knelt touching the soil of her grave and rain started to fall. I continued crying softly and whispered, "Oh God, send my love to heaven."

Christina Aguilera - I Turn To You


When I'm lost in the rain,
In your eyes I know I'll find the light
To light my way.
And when I'm scared,
And losing ground,
When my world is going crazy,
You can turn it all around.
And when I'm down you're there
- pushing me to the top.
You're always there,
giving me all you've got.
For a shield from the storm,
For a friend, for a love
to keep me safe and warm
I turn to you.
For the strength to be strong,
For the will to carry on
For everything you do,
for everything that's true
I turn to you.
When I lose the will to win,
I just reach for you and
I can reach the sky again.
I can do anything
'Cause your love is so amazing,
'Cause your love inspires me.
And when I need a friend,
You're always on my side
Giving me faith
taking me through the night
For a shield from the storm,
For a friend, for a love
to keep me safe and warm
I turn to you.
For the strength to be strong,
For the will to carry on
For everything you do,
for everything that's true
I turn to you.
For the arms to be my shelter
through all the rain,
For truth that will never change,
For someone to lean on,
For a heart I can rely on through anything,
For that one who I can run to...
For a shield from the storm,
For a friend, for a love
to keep me safe and warm
I turn to you
For the strength to be strong,
For the will to carry on
For everything you do,
for everything that's true
I turn to you.
For a shield from the storm,
For a friend, for a love
to keep me safe and warm
I turn to you.
For the strength to be strong,
For the will to carry on
For everything you do,
for everything that's true
I turn to you.
I turn to you...
