Stained Glass Love

Stained Glass Art

After watching the lovely film, The Last Song with friend of mine, I became interested in learning more about Stained Glass. I think it's such a beautiful art, and I'm thinking of learning how to make it, someday. :>

Brief History:

"The term stained glass can refer to coloured glass as a material or to works made from it. Throughout its thousand-year history, the term has been applied almost exclusively to the windows of churches and other significant buildings. Although traditionally made in flat panels and used as windows, the creations of modern stained glass artists also include three-dimensional structures and sculpture." (Source:Wikipedia)

Morning Poem.

A beautiful picture for a lovely morning, from Cuba Gallery caught me eyes. This is my first morning post since I usually wake up at around noon, so I'm quite impressed. LOL. So here's a treat for everyone. The picture above, in which the girl looks like a Muslim girl wearing a veil (i LOVE it!), and a tinny bitty poem I thought of this morning. Just a random poem, enjoy:

She make mistakes and learn from it.
She make mistakes but she never quits.
She made a choice and never looked back.
Because she knows inside that this is what she wants.


I know it's short and simple, but I hope you it will inspire someone somehow. I'm a frustrated writer, btw. Grrrr. ;-)

Have a lovely Friday morning, early birds! May the cosmic energies be with you through out the day!

Love, Bai.

I loved his first movie, Amelie. Now I can't wait for this. :)

Hooky

I had a so-so day. O played hooky on my two subjects, ate mami at dencio's and halo-halo at chowking with nanan. While we were on gaisano JS, i saw my former classmate whom I'm not really close to, and he was looking at me with a weird expression on his face. O_O I walked away as fast as I could. I decided to attend my 2nd class, but I was a bit late. I know it wasn't good, but I didn't really feel like coming to class. So I decided to skip. I just hope I won't regret it tomorrow. ^_^

Summersaults. (Warning: Long Post)

It's been a while since I last blogged.

I must say I've been uninspired lately. My heart is doing different kinds of summersaults. Elections are fast approaching and my parents are busy campaigning. I would have come home with my mom, but i have to stay here in Davao for summer class. Lately, I have found out that a great friend died suddenly. It such a tragedy, he is a person, great friend and a great leader. He is a great loss. But he is lucky, because I know he is now with Allah (SWT). I wonder what that feels like - - dying. I wonder what his last thoughts might be? Does he know that his life is ending? Does he feel sad, or happy that he's finally free? I'm scared of death, shitless, like everyone is. But isn't it supposed to be a good thing, too? I mean, were all in life's waiting room waiting for our turn, right? Nauna lang siya.

Anyway, we'll never know when our turn really is. I don't want it to happen to me anytime soon. Not yet. I mean, I've barely accomplished anything in my life. I haven't even fallen in love more than once. Lol. But shouldn't we be really prepared for that? *Sigh*

I've watched this superb film called Waking Life with louciee, and it enlightened me so. I want to experience lucid dreams with people talking about random things. The ending was a bit hanging for me. Did the main character died on his sleep? Nevertheless, it was a breathtaking movie with amazing effects. I'd like to have that lucid dream when I take the sack tonight. :)

Speaking of dreams, I haven't had one since.. a few months ago. I don't know why. The last beautiful dream I had was one with my crush, toot. And in the dream, he was beside me and we're just laying there, then we hugged. Of course, that dream didn't ever came true. LOL. What happened in reality was nothing like in that dream.

Anyway, I've been going on for minutes and I didn't even realize that my post is getting longer. I just have a lot in my mind that i need to let out. I miss some people. I've lost contact with some people who means a lot to me. I haven't gone to the beach, and I don't have extra money for that camera want. I didn't find what i was looking for. This must've been the worst summer of my life, BUT it isn't over yet. Somethings are worth waiting for in the end. Right?

Desert road into the mountains

I loved this picture of a road leading into mountains.

It completely describes how i feel about life right now. Right now, I'm confused about what I really want in life and where this road in life might take me. But the list I can do is to enjoy the view.

I'm really glad that I have my family and friends to support me, while I take the time and enjoy the ride. I mean, rush things when you are going to get there any way?

The problem is, I don't really know where I'm going. But then again, maybe, that's the beauty of it.

I've read a book called, "Hope For The Flowers" which I borrowed from my uncle and learn a very valuable lesson: To stop crawling to the top like the other crawlers and find nothing up there, but take time and find the butter within you.

I guess the butterfly is waiting somewhere out there, at the end of the road.

Oh my gulay.

I missed the araw ng dabaw and the kabataan parade today. I stayed home whole day, surfing the net, reading, and watching a little TV. I really hate being a GULAY. I didn't even studied for my exam, because other things made my academic books and photocopies less interesting. But I promise I'll make it up tomorrow.

Last night, I watched the Pupil Concert at MTS Matina with my friends. It was soooooooooo cool! I love their songs, Nasaan Ka?, Monoblock, Disconnection Notice, and others that I didn't recognize. At the end of their show, they sang Ehead songs which made the crowd go wild. My heart fell! And guess what their last song was? Prinsesa by The teeth. Oh ,my GULAY. I almost cried. That song means a lot to me.:( It reminds me of high school where I gave my heart away and almost lost my identity. I really, really love this song, though. So old school. :)
