CNN’s Hero of the Year is a Filipino.

Efren Peñaflorida, who started a “pushcart classroom” in the Philippines to bring education to poor children as an alternative to gang membership, has been named the 2009 CNN Hero of the Year. (via bobbyfilipino:pinoytumblr:codesarah: jackielynpunzal: crisssssy)


=] Go young me...

[I was going through my old blog, and I found this. I wrote it when I was 15. I read the popular guy version, and decided to write my own. Then after mine circulated, I saved it in my blog. (Keep in mind that I was young. lol)]

this guy made a list like this, and posted it in a bulletin. It sorta found it’s way to one of my friends and…

I read the one about the guy.. and got inspired. <3

I don’t care if you think it’s lame.

It’s Claire, come on now.


I’m sorry
that I’m not a slut, 
like the other girls you go for

I’m sorry 
that I have enough self-respect to say no
and to wait

I’m sorry 
that i’m not ‘hott’
or ‘sexy’ enough for you

I’m sorry
that I actually call you once in a while
just to say hey

I’m sorry
that I’m old-fashioned,
and want guys to make the first move

I’m sorry 
that you can’t take a hint.
or two, or three, or ten…

I’m sorry
that I pay more attention to you than you do to me
and that you mean more to me than I do to you

I’m sorry
that I’m shy and self concious.
I can’t help it

I’m sorry
that I listen to you complain about all these girls that hurt you,
while you ask yourself why..why can’t you find the one?
And how I stay silent though my mind is screaming 
” I’m right here! Right in front of you! Why can’t you see that?”

I’m sorry 
that I waste my time 
on you

I’m sorry 
that I supported you 
in everything you ever went for

I’m sorry 
that I can’t ever measure up to 
your “dream girl”

I’m sorry 
that I’m smart, and funny,
and so many things that you’re going to miss 
because you don’t even notice me

I’m sorry
that I’m “such a good friend”
but you never make time for me.

I’m sorry
that I used to stay up til early morning
to make sure you were okay after some girl screwed you over.

I’m sorry  
that you’re too blind 
to realize what you do to me.

I’m sorry 
that all my problems got pushed aside,
so I could solve all yours.

I’m sorry
that I won’t be here forever,
waiting for you to wake up and understand.

I’m sorry
that you’re probably not even reading this.
because you don’t care enough to.

Mostly,

I’m sorry
about how bad you’ll feel,
when I find my guy,
and you’re all alone,
left with thoughts of how it could have been,
realizing that I could have been yours.

I’m sorry I even had to come up with this in the first place.



Guys: Reply to me if you know you’re not this guy, because you’d never treat me like this.

Girls: If you’re one of my good friends you may know who i’m talking about. If you’re with me on this let me know.

<3 Claire

more to come…


Look what God just told me on Facebook...

On this day of your life, Claire, we believe God wants you to know … that you are commanded to love everyone, not condemn those who don’t agree with you. Your opinions are just that, - opinions, regardless of where you got them from. They are tiny, a speck compared to the immensity of God. You cannot possibly have even the faintest idea of what God commands to other people, to other lifeforms. Your only possible intelligent choice is to continuously open in love and acceptance. Today more than yesterday.


Haters,

Though I love most everyone, it’s okay if you dislike me or have issues with me. Even the most amazing people were hated.

[John 15:18-19]

“If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.”

Funny story, this was actually an illustration part of a weekly vocabulary poster I had to to for English in high school.
