Pinoy Top Ten #8

Top 10 Pinoy Carols (usually murdered during Christmas)

1. Jingle Bells
2. Pasko Na Naman
3. Kasadya
4. Feliz Navidad
5. We Wish You A Merry Christmas
6. Santa Claus is Coming to Town
7. Christmas in Our Hearts
8. Silent Night
9. Joy to the World
10. Deck the Halls
    

Ang ibig sabihin ng murdered dito ay yung mali na lyrics kapag kumanta ang mga bata na carolers tuwing Pasko.

The word murdered in this context means that the kids that sing these carold don't usually know the correct lyrics to the songs. Personally, I think it's cute and I don't have the heart to correct them.

Weekly Questions: Happiness

This question hit me hard and I had to think about what to write about. A simple question but it calls for a complicated answer, don't you think?

Are you happy?

Happiness as defined by Merriam-Webster is "a state of well-being and contentment." Yet it is difficult to define it when it comes to your own personal happiness, right? Right. It is quite easy to say "I am not happy" than it is to say "I am truly happy." In fact, I have learned that a lot of things that I thought would make me happy really didn't make me happy.

Inasmuch as I would try to believe that I am happy, I find that there is something lacking. It is not discontentment, mind you, but something more. Sure, I may have more that others have today but I find that it is not enough.

My life, while growing up was quite happy, but complicated. We all have our own personal stories, so I am not going to bore you with mine. Suffice is to say that my childhood was unique however, I was spoiled. I used to think that everything could be solved by material things, and for a time, they where.

Someone told me once that their family may not have what I have but they were happy. They lived simply but they were together. I was slowly welcomed into their home and I realized that there was more to being happy than I thought.

This made me remember the song Love Will Be Our Home that I kept listening to when I was still a child and this time, I know why I love the song so much. I listen to this song right now and I cried. I finally know what it truly means and why I was drawn to this song.

I am happy. It only took one person to make me happy.

Merry Grinchmas!

I love Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas a lot! I have seen the cartoon adaptations, saw The Grinch with Jim Carrey, and I have read the storybook (aww that was a long long time ago, perhaps I'll read it again?) and he is absolutely one of my Christmas haters characters! Dr. Seuss is amazing, what with his rhymes and meters...astounding! Oh by the way, I count Ebeneezer Scrooge as one of my faves, as well.

I'm spreading all this Grinch humor to all you bloggers who absolutely love the timeless classics. This song is sung by Thurl Ravenscroft. Isn't it music to your ears? nyahahahahahaha

You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch.
You really are a heel.
You're as cuddly as a cactus,
You're as charming as an eel.
Mr. Grinch.

You're a bad banana
With a greasy black peel.

You're a monster, Mr. Grinch.
Your heart's an empty hole.
Your brain is full of spiders,
You've got garlic in your soul.
Mr. Grinch.

I wouldn't touch you, with a
thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole.

You're a vile one, Mr. Grinch.
You have termites in your smile.
You have all the tender sweetness
Of a seasick crocodile.
Mr. Grinch.

Given the choice between the two of you
I'd take the seasick crockodile.

You're a foul one, Mr. Grinch.
You're a nasty, wasty skunk.
Your heart is full of unwashed socks
Your soul is full of gunk.
Mr. Grinch.

The three words that best describe you,
are, and I quote: "Stink. Stank. Stunk."

You're a rotter, Mr. Grinch.
You're the king of sinful sots.
Your heart's a dead tomato splot
With moldy purple spots,
Mr. Grinch.

Your soul is an apalling dump heap overflowing
with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable
rubbish imaginable,
Mangled up in tangled up knots.

You nauseate me, Mr. Grinch.
With a nauseaus super-naus.
You're a crooked jerky jockey
And you drive a crooked horse.
Mr. Grinch.

You're a three decker saurkraut and toadstool
sandwich
With arsenic sauce.

In the Sky by Miz - The Japanese Version

Ganahan ko ani nga song guys...sabta lang!



Japanese Lyrics
akogarete iru sora wo mezashite
shounen wa te wo nobashita
todoku to shinjite utagai mo sezu
sore ga saisho no yume
ima kimi no ue ni
onaji sora ga aru
hora kimi wo machitsudzukeru

When I fly in the sky
kono sekai koete
kanjite mitai that's imagination
kokoro no chikai
sono negai daite
yume wa hirogatteku yo
kagayaku sora e to Amazing

utsumuita tte kizutsuita tte
kimi wa yume wo mamotte
akiramenaide sora wa kimi wo
misutetari wa shinai

When I fly in the sky
kono sekai koete
tashikamete mitai that's imagination
kono kagiri nai
hateshinai omoi
yume wa hirogatteku yo
kagayaku sora e to Amazing

Everyday Everywhere
ano hi no kimi ga
soko ni iru no sa kimi to issho ni

akogarete iru sora wo mezashite
todoku to shinjite utagai mo sezu
My Dream

When I fly in the sky
I'm Feeling
kanjite mitai that's imagination
kokoro no chikai
sono negai daite
yume wa hirogatteku yo
kagayaku sora e to Amazing
Amazing
