Merry Christmas to those who are like me

Today i had to clean out my stuff in preparation for the move. It turns out i have a lot more stuff than i thought! hehe.

Anyway, I found a gift from my former best friend...it was a mountain dew bottle with a note written all over it. Basically it said sorry for all the crazy stuff that happened this year and for all the drama, but i know we're gonna still be best friends cuz we're awesome like that. Funny how that never actually happened. I also found a CD of her music videos with her friends, and i found pictures of her that i printed as well. I found a letter i wrote for her that i never gave (because back then i would write her letters all week and give her all of them during the weekend). It reminded me what it feels like to be in love and how the crazy things don't seem so crazy because you'd do anything to make that person feel special. :) All these things were dated 2009.

What happened in 2010? well lets just say, the same type of thing that happened in 2009...just twice :P

2011 was recovery year for me. Me and God all the way. Me and God had some LQ's too but we recovered really well. Actually, we're just recovering from a long break of talking. But it's doing pretty well. :)

I wonder when will be the next time i fall in love? when will i meet that person that I can't help but text everyday. That person that every love song i hear is about her. That person that I feel incomplete without. That person i want to be with for the rest of my life. Don;t get me wrong. I'm not in a rush. I'm just wondering when it will happen and who it will be.

Merry Christmas to all those single people out there. Merry Christmas to all those people out there who don't have a best friend. Merry Christmas to those people who's cellphones can go weeks without receiving a text. Merry Christmas to those who are the best at nothing. Merry Christmas to those who are just like me.

I'm not being sarcastic. I mean it! Merry Christmas to you! Because you know how to find joy in the little things. You know how to find joy in looking up at the sky, or looking at construction sites. You find joy in that little achievement box that comes up on your xbox every time you do something cool. You know how to find joy in listening to little children talk in the elevator, or the site of people walking their dogs. You know how to find joy in watching your parents work late at night, just because it lets you know that they are still doing ok physically. You find joy in the memories a song can bring, or the thoughts of the future it may bring to you. You find joy in jamming on the guitar, knowing full well that you sound terrible but its ok because you are the only on in the room. You know how to find joy being right where you are because this is where God placed you. This is where God wants you to be right now.

So my year is ending just as it started. Even though i don't have a best friend. Even though I'm not in love. Its me and God all the way.

Assassin's Creed Theories


I just finished ACR and this is my thoughts on the ending and theories after rewatching all the game finishes and the truths again.

[spoiler]
 From the previous games up till now, we know that the ones who came before (OWCB) created humans. Adam and eve stole the apple and started war against OWCB. because all were busy focusing on war, they did not realize that the sun would release a blast and it killed almost everyone. The OWCB rebuilt humans to survive (mentioned in AC2), meaning now with a survival instinct.

As time went on, the OWCB and the humans began to inter breed and the assassins were born (this explains their eagle vison: The sixth sense mentioned by Minerva in AC2)

The OWCB knew they were dying and would not live forever, so they built temples with possible ways to escape the sun, since they knew they would not be around to keep "protecting" life.  6 vaults have already been used, and desmond is trying to activate the 7th. I will get back to this topic later.

Juno told Desmond to find eve at the end of ACB. Eve is someone who the OWCB knew would have has super high concentration of DNA from the OWCB (my theory) just like desmond does (mentioned in ACR). If Desmond and Eve were to have a son, he could possibly have enough DNA of the OWCB to be like them. He could stop the sun blast. This would explain what Subject 16 said in ACB about "The sun....Your son"

BUT WAIT! If the sun blast is nearing, how can the son have enough time to be born? The 7th temple is a "bomb shelter" that will save them from the sun blast. Even if everyone dies, Desmond and Eve will start over, and their son will ensure the protection of mankind.[/spoiler]

My theory on lucy:
[spoiler] I always rememeber this scene from AC1 although I only played it once so i could be wrong, In which al mualim stabbed Altair and then later told him that the Apple made him see what he needed to see. Maybe this a similar thing to what happened with lucy. Juno needed the whole group to think she was dead when in fact, she needs to be somewhere else doing something else that will tie in in the end.[/spoiler]

Lazy Tuesday

I've been really burned out recently from all the practice at church. The Christmas concert is on Dec 17, but things are just starting to come together now. I feel that me josh and drew have really been working over time with this, but its kind of fun too somehow.

So today i just got to stay home. I practiced the songs cuz the basslines in them are not beginner. I'm really proud of myself that i got it :D

I then watched a wrestling DVD (Greatest Rivalries) and it was a really good interview about the feud of Shawn Michael's and Bret Hart, how they became legitimate enemies in real life and how they finally patched things up like more than 10 years later. Shawn was the edgy guy, doing things that you are not supposed to do on TV, while Bret played by the rules. Guess who became the bigger star? I guess that's why they called it the "attitude era". I was thinking how cool it is to be like shawn michaels was, doing whatever the heck you want because you're just that good at what you do. I know could never do that though because (1) I'd feel guilty for doing crap, and (2) I'm not that good at what i do :)) Glad to see shawn pulled a complete 180 once he became a christian and you can see how humble he has become in the interview. And the cool thing is he actually got even better at wrestling during his last few matches before retirement. :)

I should really sleep now cuz it's 2am and i have class at 9, but i find this to be relaxing right now. We're closing in on prelims and my head still isnt in the game. I need to focus. I'm worried that im focusing on the wrong classes (like ICPR 108 which im not even gonna be graded for). Maybe its because m busy with church? Yeah right! excuses don;t help!

Lastly, my schoolmates don't read this blog anymore i'm sure, but i think it would be awesome if we all blogged again. Since it's our last sem. I'm super gonna miss all of them. as in. I don;t want o put the names because iff i leave anyone out they will kill me :))

Starting tomorrow i will get back to my sexyville diet because i felt huge today. hardly got up from the couch. Also...i think i might find a way to get inspired. Hopefully it works! hahaha.

Tomorrow is just another step to becoming the best in the world.

Why call it best?

She says everything you want to hear
and hours are never enough
She looks at you like she's never looked at anyone before
and hours are never enough
But would the best be enough if you already got it?
Why call it best when there's something better?
Better than the best.

"You know how you know what God's will is?"

Tonight we had dinner with Tito Rob. he's visiting from Cebu just to talk with my parents about stuff. Anyway, I learn something new every time he visits. But a while ago he just said something that got me thinking really hard. He's told us stories of all the hardships he's been through these past months. Relational problems, health problems, legal problems, financial problems...and so he was considering going back to the states. Not because he was running away, but because he saw it as God's sign for him to leave the Philippines. But when they were all ready to go, God started turning things around. Then he knew God wanted them to stay. As he was telling this story he said "You know how you know what God's will is? When he tells you to do something you would never want to do."

You have no idea how hard those words hit me. I used to be the one saying those words. i used to cry to God night after night because I didn't want to leave the Philippines for missions. But then one day me and God had a fight and i decided to stay. Am I doing the right thing? If I am going, where will I go?

Tito Rob sees things so well. He sees a biblical lesson in every situation he is in. And he doesnt only see it after, but during the situation.

I feel like i got smacked in the face right now....gosh...what to do? God, if i read Your word...show me what to do....

Frustrated Artist


Ok, it's been about 15 days since i promised updates. hahaha! but better late than never. You know, that saying kind of means a lot. There should be another one though..."Better late than too early" because at least if its late, you're already prepared for it :)

This semester Ive been very focused. The problem is, im focused on too many things. Ive been inspired to become an artist again, however artist in  my case means drawing, photoshop, guitar, bass, video editing. I'm not being mayabang kasi im not like super good at these things, just ok :))

Pero I want to be the best. It's hard though cuz we only have 24 hours in a day, and about 10 of those are spent in school/OJT, and 6 to 8 of those are spent sleeping. So that leaves me with like roughly 7 hours. Then there's time to eat dinner with the family. So that's 6 hours na lang. 4 of those spent on school/internet (yes, they come together). So i have 2 - 3 hours to spend on art. Sometimes my other loves get in the way though: wrestling and video games.

SIDE STORY: This is why im having a hard time doing my devos. But I've been fixing that these past 3 days. God's been teaching me that without His Word, life is frustrating and pointless. END OF SIDE STORY.

I've been doing some stuff lately but im not happy with my drawings. I'm thinking of going back to basics. But im happy with my photoshop work. Just getting permissions to post it cuz it's a vector portrait of someone :P

Just remember to do what you love, and to love the Word of God. Yes namaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan :P

Till next time.

Terrible Things by Mayday Parade


By the time I was your age 
I'd give anything 
To fall in love truly
Was all I could think 
That's when I met your mother
The girl of my dreams
The most beautiful woman 
That I'd ever seen

She said "Boy, can I tell you a wonderful thing?
I can't help but notice you staring at me 
I know I shouldn't say this, but I really believe,
I can tell by your eyes that you're in love with me."

Now son, I'm only telling you this 
Because life, can do terrible things

Now most of the time 
We'd have too much to drink 
And we'd laugh at the stars 
And share everything
Too young to notice 
And too dumb to care
Love was a story 
That couldn't compare

I said "Girl, can I tell you a wonderful thing?
I made you a present with paper and string
Open with care now, I'm asking you please
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/m/mayday-parade-lyrics/terrible-things-lyrics.html]
You know that I love you
Will you marry me?"

Now son, I'm only telling you this 
Because life, can do terrible things
You'll learn one day
I hope and I pray that God shows you differently

She said "Boy, can I tell you a terrible thing?
It seems that I'm sick and I've only got weeks
Please don't be sad now, I really believe
You were the greatest thing that ever happened to me."

Slow, so slow, I fell to the ground on my knees

So don't fall in love 
There's just too much to lose
If you're given the choice
I'm begging you choose 
To walk away, walk away
Don't let it get you 
I can't bear to see the same happen to you

Now son, I'm only telling you this 
Because life, can do terrible things

gosh sabay sabay kayo. galing :))

let it burn all the way down

The air is visible around you, rising up and off your lips in slow currents
And I watch as your face is framed in its slow currents
Drifting curls a trailing path
A long drag becomes a dress of blue and ash

If it is born in flames then we should let it burn
Burn as brightly as we can
And if it's gotta end then let it end in flames
Let it burn all the way down

The air is visceral around us
Turning in its simple steps on slow currents
and I watch as it pirouettes and spins in slow motion
A long drag becomes a slow dance and a halo of ember

If it is born in flames then we should let it burn
Burn as brightly as we can
And if it's gotta end then let it end in flames
Let it burn all the way down, all the way down

And if this is ever meant to end, then I hope it ends where it began
So hot with love, we burned our hands
If this is ever meant to end, then I hope it ends where it began
So hot with love, it burns our hands

If it is born in flames then we should let it burn
Burn as brightly as we can
And if it's gotta end then let it end in flames
Let it burn, let it burn
If it's gotta end let it burn
If it's gotta end let it burn
It ends where it began, so hot with love, it burns our hands

...but tonight i am feeling cold

I prayed about it already and God just said just let it go. He said "cancel the debt". Even if you've been wronged,   just let it go na lang. And i will. I started to already.

Oh My Gosh

I used to think friends meant friends. Now i know better. Friends means "let your guard down so i can stab you in the back. BUT WAIT! I can also be plastic to your face!" Thanks a lot. I thought you meant all the things you told me at the retreat. Yeah right. Gosh you really think im like that? Really? AND YET you are totally cool with a guy who does THAT? Hypocrites.

Thats ok. I don't need you naman. It turns out you were never really my friends from the start. Hope your friends treat you exactly how you treat your friends!

4am Words of Wisdom Regarding Love (from Good Charlotte)

When you call she doesn't answer, when you write she doesn't answer
You go out you see him with her, she told you she was sick at home
The ring you gave her thrown away with all the letters
And when you see him with her, he doesn't even care at all

As she follows him around like you follow her around
And he doesn't even care and your figuring out
The only way your gonna keep somebody around
Well I'm about to let you know

There's something I don't wanna understand
The only way a woman is gonna want a man
The only way you'll ever keep her in your hands

Is breaking apart her heart
Don't tell her she is the reason that you live
Don't give her everything that you got to give
If you want to keep the girl for as long as you live

Just break it apart her heart

Can't you see the way she's crying
Well that's what keeps her trying, she knew that she could have you
And he don't give her what she wants

There's truth about this, you say you want to be noticed
Well if you want to be noticed you gotta learn to break some hearts
Don't try to understand

There's something I don't wanna understand
The only way a woman is gonna want a man
The only way you'll ever keep her in your hands
Is breaking apart her heart
Don't tell her she is the reason that you live
Don't give her everything that you got to give
If you want to keep the girl for as long as you live
Just break it apart her heart

Can't you see what you've done?
What I've become, what I've become
Can't you see? Can't you see?

I don't understand this cruelty
I don't understand but now I see

There's something I don't wanna understand
The only way a woman is gonna want a man
The only way you'll ever keep her in your hands
Is breaking apart her heart
Don't tell her she is the reason that you live
Don't give her everything that you got to give
If you want to keep the girl for as long as you live
Just break it apart her heart

I don't understand this cruelty
I don't understand... its just not me
I don't understand this cruelty
But now I see

Stupid low batt

Sometimes when i get home and i have a lot of time, (which is twice so far this sem) i record myself playing guitar and singing :P I just watch it once then delete it. Today, i did two songs, but my phone kept getting low batt. Apperantly, when it gets low batt, it cuts :/. So I recorded the second song twice and never got to watch it. Super BV moments!!!! Super.

My exercising is doing ok. Mostly cardio. Was able to do 800 jump ropes a while ago (4 sets of 200) which isnt bad. I just need to keep it up and not lose focus. Im doing this for me ok?


What else...i dunno....not really feeling "life" right now.

At least i got to practice guitar a bit. highlight of my day. :P

How to fix it?

I always want to fix things, but when i see you, i hate everything. your laugh, your smile, your jokes, hate it all. And i keep on thinking of that thing that i want to post here but i know i shouldn't. crap. I hate it when our eyes meet and you give me that oh so awkward "out of the corner of your eye" nervous look. It's true, the closer a friend is, the deeper they can hurt you. so totally we're not friends na? i guess so. Bahala ka na sa buhay mo gurl. Basta we're both happy.

This 2011, it's me and God all the way xD

New Year Prayer

First of all, Happy 2011! Sana nga diba? 2010 was not my year.

I guess you could say  all my "luck" (yeah we don't believe in luck but i can't think of a better term :P) from 2009 kinda ran out in 2010. This year I got busted twice, lost some friends, kind of got disoriented with my calling, and whole lotta other stuff that im probably choosing to forget.

Anyway, I went to church on new years eve for the service, and the message kind of struck me. I guess part of it was that i hadn't been to church in 3 weeks. But message was about Philippians 2:9-11. Jesus was honored because he chose to humble Himself first. Whoever humbles themselves will be honored for the glory of God, but whoever is proud will be humbled.

I think that's what happened to me in 2010. i got proud. Proud that i had everything together. So God took it away. Yes, I admit it hurt a lot and I was bitter. I started thinking, 2011 is all for me. No more girls, no more pleasing people, it's about pleasing me because I deserve it and because I'm the most awesomest person around.  I'll show her just how awesome I am and what exactly she missed out on. (sorry na :)) ) But then that service made me realize that it should be completely opposite. 2011 isn't about Matt, it's about God and how Matt can serve Him. It's about Matt loving his friends unconditionally and showing God's love to them. Not only to his friends, but to everyone he meets.

While i was lying in bed trying to sleep, I found myself praying. I said, "In 2011, it's just you and me God. We're gonna make it all the way to the top. Well, you're already at the top but I'm gonna do my best to reach it too. But You know what I mean. You and me God." For real. That's what I prayed. Weird huh? :P It's one of the few times recently that I prayed just to talk to God and not ask Him for anything. :)

So this is it. Happy new year! Happy 2011! Picking up where I left off at the end of 2009. It's you and me God :)
