IMAGinE

imagine a world without bio, chem and physics
a world without econ or english.

do you see it?

imagine. what if there was no biot-savart law,
or the effing magnetism per se?
wouldn't it be nice not flexing your right hand (or left)
awkwardly like a lame contortionist?
imagine. what about acidity? if pH and pOH never existed,
then would it mean an easier chem and
a lackadaisical geek going about aimlessly?
more or less it should.
imagine. no alleles. no genes. just a fixed genome
every generation. no such thing as possible progeny.
no f1's and f2's. no chromosomal aberrations
no down, turner, klinefelter
goodbye, men with female breasts and widely spaced nippies!
imagine. no supply and demand. no price
no elasticity. no curves and equilibria
just plain ol' go with the flow
no complexities. no thinking twice or thrice.
gawk, it's relaxing just typing it out.
imagine. no pleonasms. and damn oafk.
no thick illegally reproduced books.
hah. skimp grammar. tsktsktsk.
read freelance stuff which make you free.

imagine delightful music filling your mind.
with delightful imagery of the world you hear.
delight. delight.
imagine slacking off and still getting credit for it.
imagine falling down but not crestfallen.
imagine leaning onto Someone
and being proud of it.
imagine being a puppet who has some loose strings.

imagine. see. taste. smell. feel. hear.
maximize intake. and breathe in. out. in. out.

premise:
im flunking everything. flunking bio, chem, physics, math, econ, english, filipino, research, computer science, journ, pe, need i say more?
this sucks BIG TIME. and not in a bragging manner, i'm not used to this.
i mean i fail one or two subs, but never all. i'm all crap now. crap as in twaddle crap.
twaddle crap as in detestable-thing-you-would-not-want-to-have. argh.
i'm at the borderline. i'm edged between two sides. this and that.
gray and yawning.
if you have helpful advice you would want to share, please skip some stones at me. beep me.

give me life...

piggy bank

Akala mo ba'y wala na?
Kung gayo'y nagkakamali ka
Sa totoo'y andami pa nga e

Sige, subukan mo
Oo, "subukan", hindi "subukin"
Hindi yon wrong grammar
Ibig sabihin niyan: "to try", gets mo naman diba?
Akala mo ba por que yan yung turo
Yan na yung tama?
Mag-isip nga; gamitin mo yang kokote mo
TIME

TIME
Andami, gusto mo?
Siyempre--while supplies last ikanga
Mabagal ba ang service?
Konting pasensya lang ah...
Konti pa, konti pa
*takatak takatak... tching tchwing tching*
O yung resibo?

Post no bill. One way. Children crossing.
Ang gulo naman eh.
One way nga eh: DO NOT ENTER
(kung wrong number ka)

Garote de Ipanema, kelangan
Mo ng kulambo?
--Pasikot-sikot naman eh--
Ulit, from the top:

Akala mo ba'y wala na?
Kung gayo'y nagkakamali ka
Sa totoo'y andami pa nga e

Naka-booby kasi... naapakan ko e
E ganun talaga
Ako pa naman yung naglagay ng patibong
Bulok naman e. Gasgasin. Siyet.
O diba, gawa yan ng revisyon.
Tray mo kayang kumain ng
Pansit with ketsap.
Pasibol. Ang deting mo. tsong.

Agua de Beber, diba kanta yon?
Sumalubong, sumalubong at pasalubong
One, two, cut. Take three!
