The heat of "The Voice" has been felt by many avid viewers! Its blind auditions are very unique and breathtaking! So, to start, I will introduce to you my favorite The Voice Blind Auditionees! These are not in order..
1.) Kim Yarbrough - "Tell Me Something Good" - I really liked her performance! Her voice is very unique and she really enjoyed her performance. Good thing she joined Adam's team!
2.) Angie Johnson - "Heartbreaker" - She's the girl who sang the "Rolling in the Deep (Military Version)"! Likewise, she is a military officer (?) and she's very talented. Her voice is very strong and she really pulled that through!
3.) Lindsey Pavao - "Say Aah" - Her voice is very unique which makes her special from others! For me, I think she is one of the standouts in the competition! She was very happy to be with Christina Aguilera's team!
4.) Jermaine Paul - "Complicated" - He gave another version of Avril Lavigne's famous song! It was very breathtaking and it was very entertaining!
5.) Angel Taylor - "Someone Like You" - Adele is too hot to handle these past few years. And for Angel, it was very effortless. Among Adam, Blake and Cee-Lo, she picked Adam, and it was a good decision to make!
6.) Sarah Golden - "You and I" - She may be masculine on the outside, but she is very talented, I think. She pulled this song like it's her own. She decided to be on Blake's team, and surely, it would help her improve her talent!
7.) Pip - "The House of the Rising Sun" - What a cute name! But do not underestimate his voice, because he have put a new twist to the song. And it was worth it. Another worthwhile decision is joining Adam's team!
8.) Chris Cauley - "Grenade" - His voice is very strong! He is very talented and he deserves to sing Bruno Mars' famous song. He also deserved to be on Adam's team!
9.) Jonathas - "U Got It Bad" - He grooves to the music as he sings Usher's popular hit. And no wonder, the girls on the studio went wild. Including Christina. And Jonathas picked her to be his coach.
10.) Naia Kete - "The Lazy Song" - One word: AMAZING! She sounds like Team Blake's Dia Frampton from Season 1, but she is more fun and more giggly on stage. I hope she reaches far in this competition.
11.) Charlotte Sometimes - "Apologize" - She deserves a standing ovation! She sings with passion and sincerity. Those are the reasons why all four coaches pushed their button,and wanting her to be on their team. Only Blake succeeded on this, and now, Charlotte joins others who will be on Blake's care!
12.) Mathai - "Rumour Has It" - She is very beautiful! Not only that, her voice is also very beautiful! I like her onstage and I am very happy for her because she joins Adam's powerhouse team!
RANKING:
1. Naia Kete - "The Lazy Song" (TEAM BLAKE)
2. Mathai - "Rumour Has It" (TEAM ADAM)

Bulletproof !
Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick tock. Every time wasted waiting for you, is every time you have lost. From what you've done to me, this time, I'll be bulletproof. You're dirty words were just cheap pandering. You're silly antics were just useless deceptions. You're love for me was not a force to be reckoned with. Every thing we are is just plain lies. It was vague. It was blurry. Every thing wasn't worth it all.
Well, thanks to you, by the way. Because as you hurt me gradually, you made my heart bulletproof. As you left me waiting in vain, you made my heart stronger than yesterday. My loneliness ain't killing me no more (sounds like a song)! I am STRONGER. Get that?

Between TWO lungs.
(Courtesy of Florence + The Machine's album)
Between two lungs lies some thing,
Keeping us each other bursting,
With love and happiness
Throughout the world full of selfishness.
Between two lungs lies a gift,
Helping us together when problems drift.
We can't live in the present.
Without this gift, wrapped in a beautiful parchment.
Between two lungs, some things beats fast,
Every beat seems to be the last.
This keeps our love together.
All year 'round and forever.
Between two lungs lies a heart.
Not only an organ turning our life to a start.
Between two lungs lies a golden treasure.
Given to all kinds of creature.

I Won't Apologize .
Things haven't said, things haven't heard.
I've said ours was absurd.
You needed an apology.
Guess what? I don't need to say sorry.
After that, you've hurt my feelings.
You've said things 'bout my life and how we loose our bindings.
I won't apologize for who I am.
It's not part of my healing program.
You've hurt me. You've deserted me.
Every thing you did was insult me.
And I won't apologize.
'Cause this is a blessing in disguise.
Every thing we had was just a mistake.
What you showed to me is the definition of fake.
And for that, I won't apologize for who I am.
'Cause our love was just a sham!

DUMB .
My life is a complete joke.
Nobody cared. Nobody spoke.
I felt waiting like I'm dumb.
My heart now's feeling numb.
My life is a complete mess.
I kept wanting things I don't possess.
I wanted everything like I'm dumb.
Many had made my life benumbed.
My life is a complete tragedy.
Every time I fail, I cry like a lil' baby.
Every time I lose, I feel like a dumb.
Nobody cared as if there's no bomb.
Every thing I am is a complete mistake.
Every one slowly bites me like a snake.
Every thing I am is the meaning of dumb.
Every time I deal, I lose my aplomb*.
APLOMB - complete and confident composure or self-assurance

LIKE YOU'LL NEVER SEE ME AGAIN.
Cherish every moment with me, like you'll never see me again.
Forget 'bout others, forget about problems, then!
Be with me like you'll never see me again.
And face the worlds of where and when.
Love me, like you'll never see me again.
Don't ever look back from them.
Feel my touch, like you'll never be with me again.
We'll be together as we say our first "Amen".
Say to me everything, like you'll never see me again.
As if time to be with me seems to be frozen.
Say to me everything, like you'll never see me again.
And our love will never be forgotten.

Stop Animation.
No no no! I'm not saying to STOP animation. Perhaps, it may be the best thing we could enjoy. I'm pertaining to the style called STOP animation. Whew! (Sometimes we need to explain for others to understand).
We are planning to use this kind of style, since it is easy, and we don't need a lot of actors or scripts. We just need a camera, and several drawings that we could animate. We are planning to use this in our Computer project. And we cross our fingers that it may work. And it may look good. And it may look nice! Argh! I have so many frustrations about this! I hope we could patch this up before the Sunday ends! I swear to every body that we would strive to be exempted from the exam. I hope so. We hope so.
To my groupmates, let us altogether, CROSS OUR FINGERS! Not raise our middle finger!

NEW DIRECTION wins!
Nope. I'm not talking 'bout the debate we had just participated later in the day. And nope! I'm not talking 'bout One Direction.
As the third season of Glee progresses, I am continuously amazed by the talents of the New Direction. No doubt, they deserve to win the Regionals. Ha-ha. Those Warblers ain't got nothing! They tried to control the New Directions. That even didn't work. Boo-hoo! Good thing is, Sebastian admitted his mistakes and even cheered for the New Directions when they performed.
On the other hand, I really liked the mash-up of Fly by Nicki Minaj feat. Rihanna and I Believe I Can Fly by R.Kelly. It was epic! I haven't heard such mash-up for a very long time! Two thumbs up, Glee Clubbers. Til next time!

T'was NERVE-CRACKING .
Just as what I have expected. The defense we had was very nerve-cracking. And I was very frustrated to answer questions to us. And if every time they ask us questions that can be found already on our research, I was like, "Oh, please. Just refer to the papers!" Despite all of that, we have successfully ended our defense, with contentment and also relief that we have already finished this process.
Every question being thrown to us were very hard to answer. Those were the times when I want to run away and never come back. Those were the times when the silence was very deafening. Those were the times when you want to cry, but, of course you can't. You really can't.
But thank God! We have finished it today. We won't have to worry so much about that. And we need to think more about the incoming projects we need to do. So, it's a HARD KNOCK LIFE FOR US!

GLEEK SPOTLIGHT: Rachel Berry
The show wouldn't be complete without this hungry-for-fame woman. She is kinda bizarre, yet when she starts to open her mouth to sing, we would surely open our mouths too (in awe!).
"I need applause to live", Rachel Berry always says as she encourage her other Glee Clubbers to give to her the spotlight. She is very persevering, and always gets what she wants (for short, she's kind of a spoiled brat!).
Her two gay dads have supported them all the way, and her biological mother, Shelby Corcoran, is very proud of her achievements. As she ends her high school life with her on-and-off boyfriend, Finn Hudson, she embarks on the journey to Nationals.

Born This Way ! :D
YES, it is a Lady GaGa song.
But don't get me wrong.
'Born This Way' is the anthem,
For us people, with or without problem.
YES, this poem is inspired
By the song that taught us pride.
When we overcome fears and reality,
We become proud of our own identity.
YES, the title is very much obvious.
But the message's not only 'bout being victorious
But being yourself all the time,
And others will see this little light of mine.
YES, I was born this way!
Not afraid to show weakness in astray.
YES, we were born this way!
Not afraid to love capital H-I-M, in our own way!

Invasion Unlike Any Other .
Forget about the aliens invading Earth. Forget about the world coming to an end. Here's an invasion that will blow off your mind!
When I hear these kinds of songs on my stereo, I can't help dancing with the beat. Every melody seems like an energizer reinvigorating my energy. Well, what I've heard was probably the music from the kimchi land. Korean Pop, widely known to many as K-POP, visited our country like a tidal wave. Even though we get tongue tied pronouncing the lyrics, still, we accepted it. but the invasion didn't stop there. Most teenagers, especially girls, consider K-POP as a source of their fashion statement. They express themselves under the great influence of K-Pop. From wholesome and fierce girl groups, to the charming and endearing boy bands, K-Pop continues to amaze, not only Filipinos, but also people around the globe, through their musicality and originality.
But we must bare in mind a very important thing: Our own music, the Original Pilipino Music (OPM) mustn't be neglected or abandoned. Loving a foreign idea is sociable and good. But loving our own is the best thing we can give to ourselves.

"Z" No More?
Zebra. Zoo. Zigzag. What do they have in common?
It seems like the English Alphabet would lose its last letter. Surprising as it may sound to you, the poor, lonely "z" just like the puny Pluto, will be down on its final curtain. The final letter, "z"'s history includes a time when the letter was seldom used. This shocking announcement came from the English Language Central Commission (ELCC) last June 1st. The main objective of this was to simplify the phonetic aspect of the language. Unifying the American and British spellings is another aim for this shocking twist in the alphabet.
And the big question now is...What will happen to the words that have a letter z in them? According to the ELCC, words that started with a "z" will now start with an "x". Therefore, zero will now be spelled X-E-R-O. On the other hands, words that featured a letter z in them with the "s" sound will now be officially written with the "s". So, visualize will now be, V-I-S-U-A-L-I-S-E. The letter z was not always the final letter of the modern English Alphabet. For several years, the ampersand (&) which is sometimes used to replace the word and in sentences.
However, due to the vagueness of the details about announcement, it is unsure whether the implementation of "z"'s departure would be final. It will be hard for us to adapt since the letter z has been playing an essential role in terms of communication. Well, all we can say for now is the English Alphabet is like a human body. If one is missing, the whole function and purpose of the thing would become trash.

BULLYING: A Raging Problem
Bully, as defined by the Merriam-Webster's Dictionary is "one who hurts or intimidates others." Bullying has been prevalent not only in Western culture, but also in our culture. Either physically or verbally abused a student is, bullying is undeniably creating its own mark in the center among educators. Accepting the fact that there aren't enough laws protecting students against campus bullying, controlling and implementing disciplinary actions are now the challenge educators should take regarding this predicament.
Bullying starts through teasing and creating ridiculous things towards the person. Some cases even become worse, when physical abuse is already utilized. But, worst of all, victims may suffer trauma and may also bully other student to release anger and revolt. Due to this problem, there is an enormous challenge among teachers in finding solutions for preventing bullying.
How should schools handle and address this timely predicament?

Music I Heard. :D
This is the actual concrete poem I made. Sorry, it looks ugly, but just enjoy! Ha-ha. By the way, a concrete poem is a patterned poetry wherein the poem is accompanied by a drawing or a picture which forms the topic of the poem (e.g. poem).
We're The Colors of the Rainbow!
R-elease your inner self
A-nd be original.
I-nvigorate your creativity.
N-ever underestimate yourself.
B-e an inspiration.
O-vercome your fears.
W-elcome your imperfections.
This is an example of an acrostic. It is a kind of patterned poetry when the first letters of the words (e.g. RAINBOW), was connected by different words and sentences to express the word deeply.

Jesus Is a Friend of Mine
Jesus is my friend!
He's there to lend His own hand...
He's my one true friend.
This is an example of a haiku, a traditional Japanese poem. It consists of a syllabic structure of 5-7-5.

Too Emotional .
People tend to be emotional when push comes to shove, when problems start bugging, or when sadness visits. For me, I really don't like people who are very emotional. They irritate me. They make me wanna cry. But I don't want to. I just want to see everyone wear their smiles and walk with content and ecstasy. I don't want to see people crying, or shouting, or fighting, or weeping. I want the world to be what I think of. But I think it's impossible.
Human as we are, it is natural for us to think emotionally, because it's very impossible to keep your real feelings when you do not cry. I doesn't mean that if we cry, we are weak. It only shows that we are strong enough to face the fact that we are human beings and we are fragile. To those who cry out their sorrow and despair to feel better..guess what? You're not alone! Researchers said that 8.8 percent of people feel better after crying. So, grab your tissue now and cry your heart out!
As I make this post, I remember a girl, who is a damsel in distress, yet she finds hope that everything could make sense for the near future. Ha-ha, peace!

DIBORSIYO: Banta sa Pamilyang Pilipino
Oktubre noong nakaraang taon, opisyal na naging legal ang
diborsiyo sa bansang Malta sa Europa. Ibig sabihin, dalawang bayan na
lamang sa buong mundo ang walang “divorce bill” – ang Vatican City at
ang Pilipinas. Hindi na kataka-taka ang pananatiling pagbabawal ng
diborsiyo sa ating bansa dahil hanggang sa kasalukuyan, litaw pa rin
ang impluwensiya at kapangyarihan ng Simbahang Katoliko. Ayon kay
Agapay (2005), ang kasal ay isang kasunduan na kung saan ang dalawang
taong nag – iibigan ay gumagawa ng isang “partnership” sa buong buhay
nila. Bagamat may “annulment” sa bansa, nananatiling habambuhay ang
bisa ng kasal para sa nakararaming Pilipino.
Maraming epekto ang mararansan ng mga Pilipino kung sakali mang
ipatutupad ang nasabing “bill”. Hindi naman lingid sa ating kaalaman na
dumaranas ng kahirapan ang ating bansa. Hindi kaya mas mahihirapan ang
mga mag – asawang Pilipino na maghiwalay kung ang halaga ng prosesong
ito ay mahigit sa isang milyon (Borden, 1996)? Hindi lamang sa
pinansiyal na aspeto mahihirapan ang mga mag-asawang Pilipino kung
ipatutupad ang “divorce bill”, kundi pati na rin sa usaping emosyonal
at pampamilya. Ayon naman kay Wood (2011), malaking epekto ang
mararansan ng kanilang mga anak, lalong lalo na ang mga maliliit na
bata, dahil maaari nilang paniwalaan na sila ang dapat sisihin sa
paghihiwalay ng kani-kanilang mga magulang. Ang resulta nito sa mga
anak ay pangmatagalan sapagkat magkakaroon na siya ng pag-aalinlangan
at pagdududa sa kakahayan niyang magtayo ng sariling pamilya at
makararanas din siya ng depresyon dahil sa pagkawasak ng kanyang
pamilya noon. Sa diborsyo, papipiliin din ang mga bata kung saan nila
nais na mamuhay at hindi ito isang madaling desisyon para sa isang
anak. Kahit na may “visiting rights” ang magulang na nabigong makuha
ang “custody” ng mga anak, hindi naman nito matutumbasan ang
permanenteng oras ng kailangan ng isang anak mula sa kanyang mga
magulang. Sa mga dahilang aking ibinanggit, ako ay lubos na tumututol
sa pagpapatupad ng diborsyo sa ating bansa. Kahit na mabilis ang
prosesong ito, ‘di naman maikakaila na pangmatagalang ang pinsalang
hatid nito sa isang pamilyang Pilipino. Pinapaala lamang ng Simbahang
Katoliko sa buong sambayanang Pilipino na ang pagsabak sa pag - aasawa
ay hindi isang biro at nangangailangan ito ng dedikasyon. Isang
kasabihan nga ang nagsasaaad na: “Ang pag-aasawa ay hindi isang kaning
isusubo na kapag napaso ka ay iluluwa mo”, kaya dapat huwag tayong
padalos – dalos sa mga desisyong natutungkol sa pag-aasawa at
pagkakaroon ng pamilya!

Addiction: TEMPLE RUNNNNN!
A game with breath-taking effects and rules. At first, I was shocked of how the game goes on, but I have managed to learn it and it wasn't that easy as I expected.
This game is called "TEMPLE RUN", a game which I usually played on the iPod of my sister. Its main objective: run as fast as you can without being eaten by those demonic monkeys! And here's the twist: there are obstacles in the game, like a fire structure, a spiky structure, enormous tree roots and trees with big roots having tunnels.
At first, I was like:"Is that all? This is so rubbish!" But I didn't mind that I was really into it. I was addicted, for short! The different characters added to the excitement to the game. There were also power-ups like mega-coin at 150 points, coin magnet, invisibility lasting to 30 seconds, 2-point coin starts at 1000 meters and 3-point coin starts at 2000 meters and boosts works for 1000 meters! How cool is that! After the addiction of many of us, from Plants vs Zombies, to Angry Birds, Temple Run is surely next in line for being a trending and addicting game!

LIFE is like a COMPUTER.
Told ya! A computer also has its end, just like life! Haha! |
Eighty five million years ago, the
first man inhabited on Earth. They lived throughout the flow of nature,
providing them with resources. That was the start of life. And the prevalence
of LIFE on Earth has been continuous in present time, and we were fortunate
since Earth is by far the only planet wherein life occurs.
Many centuries later, the resurgence of
life has been created. The birth of these has been enjoyed by all of us until
now. They can count, can calculate and can entertain us, just like all human
beings can do. The world witnessed the birth of the computers.
On many ways, I have observed that
life and computers have several similarities. And to take note, the computers,
including robots, are one of the most similar, in terms of thinking and
reasoning, to us humans (and don’t forget that monkeys are also similar to us
and this fact is irrelevant)! From the
time we were born, our parents surely have worn their smile all day long, for
they have found a new joy (not a new toy). Just like when we own new computers,
we could be the happiest person in the world for owning one. Life is like a
computer, in such many ways, and the best example that I could state is about
decision-making. In life we need to think critical and practical to survive,
and so as in a computer. Many warnings and notifications are sent to us, to
inform us that we need to make a decision: to delete or not to delete? To
restore? To Exit? The computer gives us various choices to make different
decisions.
Viruses may visit the computer system,
because of carelessness and negligence. We kept on inserting flash drives
without even protecting our computer. We also experience this in life. Viruses
symbolize the downs in our lives, the mistakes we have committed and everything
we have regret. But, the time, which serves as our “anti-virus”, restores our
life and helps us get back to our track. Computers are also visited by diverse problems,
that make the system weak, but eventually, it will learn to solve these kinds
of problems. We, too, are visited by these obstacles which are served for us,
not to lose hope, but to hope for solution and answers. Take note, every click on the mouse, is equivalent to every step we take to the pursuit of success.
Computers, as we might observe, have
been evolving. From different sizes and shapes, they have dominated our planet.
As many years approaches, many computers come and go, some were helpful and
some were forgetful. Just like computers, life also comes and goes. This
situation explains that old ones need to be replaced by new ones in order for
us to survive. Imagine, if there are too many computers, there would also be
too many garbage. If there are too many human beings, where would you expect
for us to live and find shelter? In the moon? Ha-ha.
Last thing: death is an integral part
of life. Without it, we could not consider ourselves as human beings. A
computer’s life also comes to an end. When it is ruined or broken badly, there’s
no choice but to sell it into junkshops or just throw it. Life and computers
have its beginning and in the long run, both have its end. The only difference
is that computers are sold, not buried. To end, I would like to share this bizarre,
yet sort of true quote from Philip
Emeagwali: “Because I believe that humans are
computers, I conjectured that computers, like people, can have left- and
right-handed versions.” Ta ta for now, fellas !
