                <description><![CDATA[ Hello everyone<br /><br />After an April long hiatus, two weeks and china, and tortuous session with my dentist (who's hot BTW). I, as of now 4 AM in the morning, jot down this problem of mine.<br /><br />Well, i am currently writing two stories (scatterbrained me) and, after 180 pages on one and 13 on the other, i have hit an obstacle.<br />Well, as i begin to write, I usually dont care how many pages i go through since i am in a rush of inspiration. And then, WHACK, all grinds into a halt because my lack inspiration took away my motivation to progress further. Then, when in some moments i suddenly am inspired i hasten to my laptop and type, only to<br />-Forget what i was suppose to type<br />-Edit the inspired line, only to lose its beauty<br />-Find out that it is out of context.<br />-Find another inspired something and the entire cycle repeats again.<br /><br />And so with these I lament. HOW THE HELL ARE YOU SUPPOSE TO RETAIN INSPIRATION!!??? *sigh* Back then my problem was how to find it, but that was solved, then this shit falls down like B2 Spirit bombs. Just how the hell do all those writers then and now were able to do it? <br /><br />To anyone who reads this, I plead to you to offer any advice on how to retain inspiration long enough to put such thoughts into words and into binary codes that shall, at a split second, appear on an MS Word Document as full visible words, english or otherwise. And my thanks, to those who shall give wise and sound counsel <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br />Well off to bed now, I cant barely see my keyboard (fucking black) and the the soft dark light heralds the arrival of the eternal Astral Emperor, the Big Orange Ball whom we all used to worship.<br /><br />Before i leave my heart goes out to the thousands slain in the Chinese earthquake in the central provinces. Being part Chinese and having family within the central provinces, i pray that the survivors live to the appointed end and eternal rest to they who lie broken and dead. I hope China shall rebuild the damaged provinces soon enough. Rest assured, China will learn and will brush off this disaster, as they have always done (On a lighter note, arent they the inventors of the first Seismograph?)<br /><br />"As the Chinese nation faces its greatest peril,<br />All forcefully expend their last cries.<br />Arise! Arise! Arise!<br />Our million hearts beat as one!"<br />-March of The Volunteers<br /><br />Also, we should never forget the ongoing inhumanity that the Myanmar Government is currently commiting. I hope that the global community can break through the Military Junta's barricade and aid the Burmese peoples. The nerve for those Military Assholes to call themselves soldiers, they're not even willing to lay down politics for the good of their citizenry. Their government, such poor fucks, the poor stupid fucks.<br /><br />I am also about to say something about the recent Manchester Soccer Riots. They say the police "Overreacted," but, for anyone with common sense, it is clear which side truly overreacted. *Sigh* i wish i can continue but a somnus beckons and i have a heavy head ache...*falls Asleep*<br /><br />...oh, its 5 AM...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Ok, so yesterday i went back to our highschool (we finished classes by the end of february) to check up on the grad list. I was a little apprehensive about it since i had this tangle up with math, so i bided my time by walking the first few distances from my house. then, i boarded a jeepney (for you foreign blokes, here <a href="http://www.hawaii.edu/cps/jeepney.jpg">[link]</a> ) and arrived near the university in a matter of minutes (again for you foreign blokes; the cantankerous pilots of these colourful vehicles hold no speed limit sacred, and are known to travel in speeds that can distort the space & time continuum, LOLZ) By the time i got there, the list was out, horded by batchmates and parents. After taking a moment to breathe (discreetly) i looked for my section on the list. Finding it, i traced my finger downwards, only to spot this name:<br /><br />Tan, Nigel F.<br /><br />Thank God<br /><br />I'm In<br /><br />So there. All I'm doing now is to wait for the graduating ceremony, then, after months of vacation, its off to college.<br /><br />Yeeey *joyful*<br /><br />I still lack ideas, but im writing <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br />Our country's in a bit of a crisis again, were most likely going to have a people power again. Our leaders are constantly bickering and arguing about who's corrupt, but both sides are stealing money from the people. Because of this, the people have grown cynical, and we cant tell whos telling the truth in our government.<br /><br />In 2010, were going to have elections, but the same people are still running. The same idiotic senators, the same family names of political dynasties, the same actors turned politicians that didnt even finish high school, The same snivelling fishbait cowards that run for the sake of profit over filipino lives. These assholes are politicians, not statesmen<br /><br />By 2010, im 20 years old, but i'll rather kill a presidential candidate than waste time, effort, money, and ink to vote for one.<br />And if any of you, fellow filipinos, would say that Im not doing my part as a citizen, i'll ask you this:<br /><br />are THEY doing their part?<br />We've been doing our part in keeping this country up and running. Our hordes of overseas workers are out there, in the world, working in places with name's they can't even pronounce. Our students here are studying, our populace wakes up in the early morning to go to their factories, farms, and offices. Our young professionals, despite better pay abroad, stay here to work. I myself will be joining them in a couple of years, you are either with them already or joining them as well<br />Now i ask again<br />are THEY doing their part?<br />THEY, who go to a congress meeting, only to fool around.<br />THEY, who take the peoples money and buy luxury cars with it.<br />THEY, who takes funds for a public project for private use.<br />THEY, who yak around all day with false promises.<br />THEY, who kill press personnel if they happen to know corruption.<br />THEY, who become generals just to take military funding.<br />THEY, who run for presidency for 2010, but were secretly campaigning since 2006.<br />THEY, who are corrupt<br />THEY, who are evil, and <br />THEY, who are tearing this nations apart.<br /><br />are THEY doing their part?<br /><br />*sigh*<br /><br />Nway, im out of ideas for things to put here on dA. I really need to think more ideas to draw\write\shoot or else i'll be posting another boredom inspired screenshot...<br /><br />Can you help? PLS *does cutesy expressions.*<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Nway, My mom's just left for shanghai and Im here taking care of the house and the rest. Its kinda fun actually, being alone without ma to guide me in stuff, feels liberating. But, I must still restrain myslef so that my liberty turns not to libertinage.<br />

 Our music proj is interesting, we are supposed to make a song using a modernized classical music tune. We chose to use Mozart's Twinkle Little Star tune, and, with my lyrics, weve got an awesome "Shine On" by our (classroom) band, the Newbodies. (Lyrics to be posted in devart)<br />
<br />
 Sa lahat ng Members ng Makabayan Guard (you know who you are), listen up! Were up against Cannibal Lords (Chaos) courtesy Darklohdz836, Ahm_bohy, and 8tshit. New tactics and stuff. (god, we must really find another multiplayer RTS game) Mga Thursday this week<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
Anyway, it has been raining more than usual in the Philippines this year, i think that if you can fill a big lake if all the water that fell from the heavens were to be placed in a leveled area. It always rains hell 'round here<br />
<br />
Near Asia, were always the first to get it by typhoons, an ugly fact, but i really wonder why when the same typhoon passes over us and hits mainladn asia, more people are hurt over there? Probably we are used to the storm...<br />
<br />
Hence, we Pinoys are riders of the storm (in fact, most of the kids here are morbidly happy when a storm hits since: Storm= No classes)<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Is a bloody revolution. Personally, that little street party we threw back in the 1980's was a big mistake. Marcos (Good Politician, idiot of a dictator, and and idiotic family) should have been slain or imprisoned for life (and so are the rest of his family,) not exiled to the US. After thinking about it, we, the Filipino state, never really learned from that bloodless revolution, why? it is because it lacks violence. Revolutions against corruption or invaders, require violence, because without it, its lessons will never be remembered, its demands, never achieved. Lets say we have a bloodless revolution, the guys kicked out by that kind of revolution will say, "Well that sucks, but hey, were still ok, we can do it again!" But, lets say we have a bloody revolution, those guys will not do it anymore, because the revolution hit them so hard that they forced themselves to accept its demands rather than just ignore it. <br />
<br />
 14 years after EDSA I, my State has corrupt leaders again on the government, I wish this country experienced civil war and revolution back then, but there is no use crying over spilled milk. Probably when, in time,  this country overflows with corruption, then it is time for a old fashioned revolution.<br />
<br />
Mabuhay ang Pilipinas<br />
Mabuhay ang Kalayaan<br />
<br />
(PS, sa lahat ng mga Pinoy diyan, nasulat ko lang ito kasi napaisip ako sa EDSA I nung me nabasa akong artikulo tungkol sa nasabing parte ng ating kasaysayan, so kung me nabanas, peace tayo!)<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I heard about the Virginia tech shooting, and i feel very deeply saddened for the lives ended at that day. But also, may I express my hate at people like that assholic gunner who feel like certain people must die for this world to be cleansed. Damn these shootings...I hate it when things like this happen<br />
<br />
 The US government should do something about that case. Like for example, revising that gun amendment in their consty for safety reasons. I mean, c'mon, the US today was not the fledgling baby of the late 1700's, things have changed, there is little need for a "Militia" nowadays, now is the time for them to take more and more care of how they sell and use weapons...Damn gun companies, profiting from widespread selling of arms.<br />
<br />
 Speaking of widespread selling of arms, I wonder what Mr .Kalashnikov would feel about how people make do with his masterpiece?<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ First of all, YAAAY SUMMAH BEHKAYSHIAHN!!! Ok here it goes, my mom taught me since I was 4 to be as much as I can be, a gentleman,  like opening the doors when females or the elderly wishes to pass through them, or loffer a seat for them to sit on. Ever since 6, I've been opening doors instinctually for girls (even people who dressed as girls, I once unwittingly opened a door to a drag queen once..its creepy) and the elderly. But earlier today something different happened. As I was entering a convenience store, I noticed some girl was behind me, going for the same shop, so as usual, I opened the door for her, then I saw her, pretty, oriental-looking, and probably of my age. But what happened next made me very happy. As she walked past me, she looked into my eyes (I think so) smiled and cheerfully said "Salamat (Thank You)." MY GOSH I've never been thanked before!! Eventually, as I went home, I was very cheerful and upbeat. Clearly, being kind to people does have it's rewards, may it be a simple "Thank You" that can make you happy.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ This day, I made an important realization why history is being studied at school. It all started with a very complicated maze book I bought from a book store. When I started going through the maze, I often get stuck up on a dead end and had to go and backtrack my way. After nearly forever, I found my way out of the maze by going through many backtrackings. Now, what has this to do with history? Well, the world we live travels in very complicated, uncomprehensible maze, namely time, and there are certain parts where we get stuck. Only when we, the people of the world ,just turn our heads and look back at their past, then the world will progress for the better, but also at the same time, we must look forward into the future, while being aware of the present, to achieve a better world. Want evidence? look, The period of ignorance and chaos (Namely the middle ages) was ended when people looked back at the free world of the greeks and the romans,  integrated this freedom to their current time, which resulted into the Renaissance Era, an era taht marked the age of ignorance and ushered in the modern world. On the other hand forgetting history can result into devastating events. Example: no one wanted remembered the horrors of World War 1, so, just after two decades of peace, World War 2 became inevitable. <br />
<br />
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, we can forget about the details, places, names, objects, and dates, those are just there to help us remember, but we must never forget what happened at the past, we must continue to look both at the past, the present, and the future. to end, I would just like to quote from our national hero, Jose P. Rizal, "Ang sino mang hindi tumitingin sa kanyang pinanggalingan, hindi makararating sa kinaroroonan" ("Those who forget where they're from, will never reach they're destination")<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Reading my 4 yer old war story, "Gun Dogs" again is enjoyable, considering that I finished it 4 years ago and thought that I lost it forever. After reading through it though, I read a book about all the conflicts in history. Then, I paralleled actual wars to my fictional war, and saw the same thing. State A declares war on State B because of political/economical/religous reasons, both sides kill each other, both sides peoples suffer. As we can see, even with all the tehnological improvements from time to time, the same thing happens in war, Two nations fight, and in the process, harm each others people.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ This monday, I was playing with my good natured yellow-labrador named Greco. in the middle of the playtime, Greco bit my left leg playfully. Since he always did this to me at play ever since he was a pup, I left him to it, but seconds after that, his bite suddenly increased in force that, if I yank my leg off I will end up wounding myself. So I reached for a nearby broomstick and whacked my canine companion so hard, that he yelped and ran off.<br />
<br />
 Then, wednesday came, in which I was to take him for a walk. While walking Greco, I noticed he was well behaved, not pulling me to somewhere he wanted to go, he followed me as close as the leash would allow. I sudenly remembered a chapter in Nicolo Machiavelli's "The Prince," in which he said that a leader who continues to be kind, falls, while a leader who balances his kindess with cruelty, lasts.<br />
<br />
 Though I am quite saddened to what i did to my dog, I think it was necessary for me, as its owner, that he should not abuse my kindness. Why? when you love someone, you have BIG chances of hurting your beloved easily, but when you fear someone, you either think twice of hurting the feared one, but most of the time, you chose to subject yourself under his/her will or avoid the person, therefore not harming that person.<br />
<br />
 I would also like to say that states should do so not allow its citizens or other nations to abuse it's favors If a democratic country should declare martial law because of it's citizen's wanton disregard of its reasonable laws, then it should, If a government wants to impose the death penalty of a criminal serving life sentence, who while in and out of prison still lives out a life of crime and promotes to his society's further degradation, then it should do so. if a state should declare a trade embargo to a foreign state since the foreign state does not obey the reasonable policies of the U.N, go ahead, do so.<br />
<br />
We should be untrameled by traditions and religions, these are just prerequisites, everything in this world is subject to science and reason. And since everything is subject to reason, there are certain events n our lives when we are allowed to say "It is better to be feared than to be loved."<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Today, joined a massive (Airsoft) battle between my neighborhood's kids (Who range 11-16 in age). Honestly, I never get these battles so I decided to join in one. In the middle of the fight I took a photograph when we were attacking this abandoned house full of the opposing parties people. Then i got hit by 6 pellets around my chest, they hurt so hard that i ducked to avoid further hits. If war in airsoft is like this, it sucks. then i realized that war in itself....is pointless. it only brings suffering to those who are involved and those who are not involved. But still, conflict endures, peace is just an abstract idea....<br /><br /> ]]></description>
