All I Want for Christmas

All I Want For Christmas Is You Lyrics


I don't want a lot for Christmas
There's just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is...
You

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There's just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
With a toy on Christmas day
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
You baby

I won't ask for much this Christmas
I don't even wish for snow
I'm just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe
I won't make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeers click
'Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
Ooh baby
All the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of children's
Laughter fills the air
And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need
Won't you please bring my baby to me...

Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just want to see my baby
Standing right outside my door
Oh I just want you for my own Font size
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for Christmas is...
You

All I want for Christmas is you... baby (repeat and fade)

Dew Drops Edition

Lately I've been obsessed with capturing the stillness of water ... stillness and serenity of a small body of water which we usually called


Dew Drops


... how subtle is your stay in each petal and leaf ...

Hope Floats When Despair Floods.

After a whirlwind of emotions the whole year ... I started to regain my LIFE back ... slowly ... And continue my journey towards the goal I've been procrastinating for years This is to share to you a few messages from my favorite movies relating to some part of my year's events :

.
.


A little nonsense now and then, is cherished by the wisest men.

You should never doubt what no one is sure about
We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams
So much time, and so little to do! Strike that, reverse it.
Willy Wonka Charlie and Chocolate Factory





At times the world can seem an unfriendly and sinister place. But believe us when we say there is much more good in it than bad. And what might seem to be a series of unfortunate events, may in fact, be the first steps of a journey. Violet Baudelaire A Series of Unfortunate Events


“Yet even in certain defeat, you must cling to the belief that life is not merely a series of meaningless accidents or coincidences, but rather it’s a tapestry of events that culminate together in an exquisite, sublime plan.”

“If we are to live life in harmony with the universe, we must all posess a powerful faith in what the ancients used to call ‘fatum’, commonly referred to as destiny.” Serendipity

No I know exactly what you mean and I'm completely jealous. When I'm confronted by someone I get tongue tied and my mind goes blank. Then I spend the rest of the night tossing and turning over what i should have said. For example what should I have recently said to… ... a bottom dweller who recently belittled my existence. Nothing... even now days later I still can't figured it out... Kathleen Kelly

Wouldn’t it be great if I could pass all my zingers to you, then I could always be nice and you could be nasty whenever you wanted to be. Although I must warn you... when you eventually have the pleasure of saying the thing you want to say at the moment you’re wanting to say it... remorse eventually follows...Joe Fox
Sometimes I wonder about my life. I lead a small life. Well, not small, but valuable. And sometimes I wonder, do I do it because I like it, or because I haven't been brave? So much of what I see reminds me of something I read in a book, when shouldn't it be the other way around? I don't really want an answer. I just want to send this cosmic question out into the void. So good night, dear void. Kathleen Kelly You've Got Mail 1998

And that's when this feeling came over me like a warm blanket. I knew, somehow, that I had to stay alive. Somehow. I had to keep breathing. Even though there was no reason to hope. And all my logic said that I would never see this place again. So that's what I did. I stayed alive. I kept breathing. I gotta keep breathing. Because tomorrow the sun will rise. Who knows what the tide could bring? " Cast Away 2000 Yien this is also for you.

The master says: "The spirit of God that is present in us can be described as being the screen in a movie theater. On the screen, various situations occur -- people love, people separate, treasures are found, distant countries are discovered. "It is not important which film is being shown. The screen is always the same. It is not important if tears fall or blood runs -- because nothing can stain the whiteness of the screen. "Just as with the movie screen, God is there -- behind every one of life's agonies and ecstasies. We will see them all when our film ends." -MAKTUB

Warm Thoughts From My Hypothalamus

Since yesterday I started to give my heart a rest from pressure, worries and anxieties. And just let the whole universe conspire and lead me to my heart's desire ...

My sister and I have been in love with Lana and Clark since Smallville aired its first season...this is to share you some of my favorite clips...




and some quotes to cherish ...

Clark : Defensive reading ... whenever the world gets disappointing you retreat into a book... there are worst things...
Lana : You know, you are right... Its just easier than to read my own life...
Clark : I did the same thing with astronomy... I look at different worlds and wonder if my life would be better then...

Pangngulila at Anarkismo

The usual day... tired of work... expecting to see a smiling face when you open the door... expecting to see a to smell a familiar dish for dinner, but everything is dark and still now. i need to open up everything to bring LIFE to our home.
As i sit in my favorite chair in our cozy dining table and try to nibble something just to fill my stomach with food, i was transported back in time...when my favorite sis would smirk coz i stepped on her foot or brushed over the dirt of my rubber slippers on her legs ... and check on the lazy Susan that rotates to get you a piece of dish Nanay prepared and thought of the whole day.

With Tatay in the center talking about his issues with life, trivia and most especially history and politics. You can hear him talk about people, places and events (for short tsismis). Whose who and where, when and what of the people on the other side of the world is up to, as crazy as how Mabini got his syphilis, how Tatay love a being German ( as if he can be one) and how queer Filipino values and practices are, with a snide remark "Pilipino Kasi".


Well, this usually leads to debate and exchange of views and ideas with Bingbing and me. Today, as I opened the TV, Philippine politics is such a mess...
Just right after election, Glorietta bombing... a congressman died due to bombing at Batasan ...
Unknown symptoms of political Anarchy. Sad to think that there are still people who are just too proud and vengeful to culminate their insecurities at the expense of other people's lives.

Well back to reality, miss my over dinner debate and political conversation with Tatay and Bebeh Late posting November 14, 2007 Pagmumuni

Back to the Future


Is was Tuesday night... and I got 3 days left ... and i will no longer wait in line at the Fx Station going home... but it seems like life wanted to play with me before I leave... as I was waiting for my ride home... I saw a familiar girl ... just next to me and also waiting for an VG Fx... A petite and curvy girl... with straight thick black hair strands, high cheekbones, dark archy brows and with a hopeful look in her expressive, shimmery eyes.

I was transported back in time ... when I was still young ... it was early 2000. Fresh, innocent, full of good hopes and a lot of expectation.

As I look around I was brought back to reality... Now i am to start all over again... but this time a new me...strong, independent, and ready to explore life, the world and its challenges. Now I am to gather all scattered hopes and dreams to fulfill my expectations. The ride started to leave ayala but across the street flashes a big sign :

COCO LIFE



* got to admit, the girl is much prettier, but she still reminded me of how I look back then.

The Power of One


Totally love this film since i was 13, it may not be as good as the book but the story is just too loaded that a really good writer and film director is needed to depict the scenes.

Love Zoo

When we recall the usual Sunday morning at home, we would hear Tatay singing out loud a phrase he never ever did explain to us before

" LOVE IS LIKE A SUNDAY IN THE ZOO",

If you ask him if it is a real song or if he just made it up...he'll just tease and repeat the singing of this phrase over over...

Inspired and annoyed with the song, my poetic sister made her own version of it... and entitled it
Love Zoo...

Love is like a Sunday in the Zoo.
It smells like shit;
Oh, it feels like shit;
But I like it cause I'm with you.
- MLMM June 3, 2006


Well i woke up 5:00 am in the morning today with my own version of it.

Love is like a Sunday in the Zoo.

It is inviting, absorbing, and amusing.

Just be careful and be warned

That you might be trapped in a goo.
