The Deeper Me

"I've been so alone all my life, couldn't give my heart to anyone, hiding myself was a man who needed to be held like everyone."
Some of my friends know who i really am, but only a few of them know me that deeply, a few of them know me that completely.
I am a Loner, by choice and heart, some may misunderstand it as just being alone, by oneself, identify it literally, but its so much more than that. As I write this post I'm still trying to identify the whole meaning of it, here's what i know as of now based of what i have been for the past years.
Its like the tip of the iceberg that sunk the mighty Titanic, you only get to see what it shows but underneath those icy cold water lies the huge mystery of it and its up to you if you let it submerge you to the bottom of the abyss or not.
I do enjoy the company of others but sometimes when I'm with friends I tend to space out and forget I'm with them. Some loners like the serenity of being alone and having the expense of doing things at their own time but in my case there are emotions attached to it.
I was in college when i got the first whiff of freedom, so many possibilities to happen and so many friends to meet but making them was a whole different thing, likes and dislikes doesn't match, attitudes clash, college people are too complicated than high school ones that's why during that time my loner streak begun. Home and school were my only routine in college but during times of boredom going to the mall alone was a simple bliss, I was a contented loner then.
I have kept ties of my high school friends intact during college days and I do see them once in a while. They are my confidants during trying times but if I can resolve them by myself I'd much prefer it but never have I expected that one particular thing could change me and my idea of being a loner.
For years these raw emotions have kept me in check of the real feelings that keeps surfacing though hard as I might to bury them.
Like everyone else I had my share of loving someone but never got it back maybe because i was never brave enough to admit it to her and specially to myself, i have always locked what i have truly felt inside, afraid of things that might or might not happen until it was too late and I have never got over it since then.
Just like the iceberg and the mighty ship, I'm slowly sinking in. I only show people what I want them to see for the fear of their judging eyes pass me, for the fear rejection, for the fear getting hurt even more and these past few days the haunting of the past have awakened, you may pass me down the street or see me on a bus ever so normal but beneath it you may be wrong otherwise.
"run into the sun and watch me run into the rain, for you the future's easy, for me its getting steep."

Feather Pen

I just finished my first graphic desktop wallpaper using GIMP, its a combination of light beams, water splashes, and feather brushes. The colors are a mix of blue, white and light green. Its kind of a fantasy scene with all the lights and sparkle effects with the contrasting power of the beams and the serene background. Feel free to use this wallpaper on your computer or on your site (Friendster, MySpace, etc.). Hope that i could make more wonderful designs in my future posts. If you want a customized wallpaper please leave a comment or post a message on my shout box.

My Former Blog Site

i was just rummaging through my FS (Friendster) applications when it hit me, what happened to it? was it deleted or anything like that? so i have to see for myself.

it was still there all right, nothings changed, no activities, not even comments but to hell, it was still there. I'm still surprised as i read through my entries, can't even imagine i wrote all of it, (actually not all, some of them are excerpts and contributions from people i know, some are from my friends) i even did an online journal, so much sentiments and emotions well enough of that.

published some of my written works, from poems, essays, short stories and some random things that come to my mind, either from personal experiences or from work (majority from it are due to stress related issues).

it was sentimental, it was my first, everything i put in it was me, the real me. the different side of me. The Unknown Shade.

and for those of you who want to experience my humble beginnings as a blogger fell free to visit: http://unknown-shade.blog.friendster.com and for those who have, thanks. will keep on posting.

i went up to Baguio yesterday and i was so flustered with all that was happening, its been so long since i went back, years i think? the hell with the long traffic due to a land slide kakainis talaga we have to go through different streets just to make up for the lost time luckily the taxi driver was so intuitive but unfortunately it was too late, so nothing else to do but go back home and when it seemed everything else feels wrong it started to rain so we waited long enough under a shed for an empty taxi, it was a long and tiring day. can't say no more.

Too Bad

So sorry for the long gruesome wait, i was just waiting for the right material to post, don't want to bother readers with senseless things, but today is a little different because today i just found out that a great blogger has posted his last entry last May 12 here on Blogspot. Its so sad that he has to go, taking all with him his entries, but on the lighter side it was probably for the best because now he has his very OWN domain and it looks great, for those of you who wants to see his new and improved site its located at www.planetmarkus.com, and for Mark Rosario, good luck on your new site and more readers. Cheers!
