Here lies some photos and the story behind it.

Due to my fascination of Pres. Cory, I secretely took a yellow ribbon hanged by the school all over the corridors.
It's a really pretty yellow ribbon. ^^

This afternoon, I was supposed to have lots of places to go to. But suddenly, each one got postponed.
Movie treat courtesy of Erik. -He said, next time na lang.
Meet up with Kuya Nong. - I couldn't make it on the only time he was available.
Visit to UST. - I got lazy.

So I was already prepared and ready to go, then I realized, where to?
That's when I took pictures of myself.
I don't usually do it.
But anyway, the get up would be such a waste.

Special | Thank you, Tita Cory ♥

Salamat, Tita Cory

I'm not really a die-hard Cory fan or anything but ever since I happen to watch Kris Aquino's speeches about her mother, I cannot help but cry. I realized that this "simple housewife", as they say it, left a lasting legacy not only to her family and friends, not only to the Filipino people, but to the whole world as well. She was worthy of all the support and gratitude that the people are giving her. She was a woman of courage and strength, of love and faith, of compassion and democracy. She is a one-of-a-kind Filipina, mother, friend, president, and woman. She is a gift, an inspiration to many.

And here is a really sweet and nice love poem made by the late Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino, Jr. to his wife Pres. Corazon Aquino.

I have fallen in love
with the same woman three times;
In a day spanning 19 years
of tearful joys and joyful tears.

I loved her first when she was young,
enchanting and vibrant, eternally new.
She was brilliant, fragrant,
and cool as the morning dew.

I fell in love with her the second time;
when first she bore her child and mine
always by my side, the source of my strength,
helping to turn the tide.

But there were candles to burn
the world was my concern;
while our home was her domain.
and the people were mine
while the children were hers to maintain;

So it was in those eighteen years and a day.
’till I was detained; forced in prison to stay.

Suddenly she’s our sole support;
source of comfort,
our wellspring of Hope.
on her shoulders felt the burden of Life.

I fell in love again,
with the same woman the third time.
Looming from the battle,
her courage will never fade

Amidst the hardships she has remained,
undaunted and unafraid.
she is calm and composed,
she is God’s lovely maid.

Jose Mari Chan made it into a song included in his album Constant Change. Listen to it here:
