Stuck

In Tabangao stuck
For the weekend. Buck
Naked, running amuck
In my bedroom. Struck
out of Tumble-bug

a guitar, but, luck!
I don't play it. Luck!
I don't have one. Stuck,
Like a fly on a window. Yuck.

Now as I type this post, typhoon Feria (local name) is raging outside my window... Next week it will be July. That means hoping for a bright sun shiny day is over, summer has lost to rain. This battle is now over. Soon the rains will completely take over: the skies will be dark for most of the day, the stars at night hidden by the dark clouds. "You don't know me, but I know you, see, you're my favorite star..." I miss the summer, when the sun is out and up. I miss the beach at summertime, when the sand and the water is warm and the nights a cool respite. I miss having ice cream and halo-halo to cool off. I miss not needing to bring an umbrella every time I leave the ...

Without further ado, here is my uber awesome and eccentric list: http://www.adaphobic.com/ http://tunaynalalake.blogspot.com/ http://ka-blogs-tugan.blogspot.com/ http://videochops.com/ http://www.pataygutom.com/ http://writingtoexhale.com/ http://zorlone.blogspot.com/ http://goodtimesmanila.com/ http://www.millionaireacts.com/ http://thestrugglingblogger.168center.com WOOT!
