The Friendster system seems to have technical problems right now. I’m having a hard time uploading some pictures…too bad. Anyway, I am not going to rant about the Friendster problem…in fact I am raving that Friendster exists.
Getting through the Internet, the first two pages I open are Yahoo Mail and Friendster. It has always been SOP for me. Problem is, I get stuck most of the times browsing through the latter, leaving my other jobs behind. I take my time looking through the profiles and pictures of my friends. It is only through this system that I get to know the latest buzzes. I don’t know if I am just the one doing this — I mean, I really go through everyone from A-Z as long as I can handle it. Having gone through everyone and my friends’ friends, something suddenly dawned on me.
Weeks and months from now, some of my close friends will be leaving, and I can’t help but feel sad in a way. Some have gone before and of course I felt the same way and I miss them. But this time, it seems life-changing because I practically lived some years with them and this is like an exodus of people close to me. In a few months, I’ll never get to talk to them as I used to…I’ll never get to eat with them, go some places with them, never get to joke with them… things that are left which are toll-free in order to reach them are Yahoo Mail and Friendster. In a few months, I’ll be simply seeing their faces on Friendster.
Hah! This is starting to sound like a tribute, but why not? This is for all of my friends, who will be leaving…hopefully to live better lives and experience other things. It’s hard to be ready sometimes for things like these. One moment, we are enjoying despedida parties for you, the next moment, you’re gone. Time really will come when we have to live different lives.
The heart is a bloom, shoots up through the stony ground
There’s no room, no space to rent in this town
You’re out of luck and the reason that you had to care,
The traffic is stuck and you’re not moving anywhere.
You thought you’d found a friend to take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand in return for grace
It’s a beautiful day, the sky falls
And you feel like it’s a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away
You’re on the road but you’ve got no destination
You’re in the mud, in the maze of her imagination
You love this town even if that doesn’t ring true
You’ve been all over and it’s been all over you
It’s a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away
It’s a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away
Touch me, take me to that other place
Teach me, I know I’m not a hopeless case
See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out
It was a beautiful day
Beautiful day
Don’t let it get away
Touch me, take me to that other place
Reach me, I know I’m not a hopeless case
What you don’t have you don’t need it now
What you don’t know you can feel it somehow
What you don’t have you don’t need it now
You don’t need it now, you don’t need it now
We all had beautiful days. I won’t let those get away. We all had beautiful days, I won’t let you guys get away.
