Express Yourself!!!


Most of us have a hard time expressing our feelings, because as we all know, voicing out what we really feel is no walk in the park. More often than not, when we try to say what we want to say, we end up getting tongue tied, or worse, saying the wrong things. So instead of being humiliated, turned down or misinterpreted, we just chose to hide what we feel. But do you know that keeping our emotions to ourselves may result to heart ailments.

Well… good news! Do you know that you can actually let loose your emotions without talking to someone? Here’s the lowdown on the things you can do to help you with those bottled up emotions:



* Unleash your Creative side. If you can’t say it, write it! If you’ve got a crush on this major hottie in your school, why not try to write a poem about your undying love for him. If you feel really bad, then write a composition about it, maybe you can contribute it to your school paper. Who knows? You might discover a journalist in you.


* Do Creative Dramatics. This one is sure fun. All you have to do is act out what you feel. Face a mirror and pretend you’re talking to the person you love or hate the most. Say what you want to say, no holds barred, it may also help hone your acting skill. Just be sure to do this inside your room, where no one can see you, or else they might think that you’ve already gone crazy.


* Start a Diary. Write your thoughts in a journal and make it your new best friend. From the time you felt really bad when your parents reprimanded you to go to that “PARTY OF THE YEAR” down to your deepest darkest secret. Writing what you feel purges you of everything you’ve been keeping inside. Just a little advice, don’t leave it lying around.


* Cry. Cry your heart out, cry ‘till you can’t cry no more, if that’s the only way to lighten up your load a little bit, then CRY. Anyway, it’s been said that crying is also good for us because it cleanse our eyes. But there’s one disadvantage of too much crying, it’ll give you raccoon eyes.

* Write a letter. Are you dying to let this guy know that you’re madly in love with him? Or you’re so fed up with your very insensitive boy friend? You can’t contain it anymore and you know that anytime now you’re going to burst out if you don’t confront him with how badly you really feel because of his insensitiveness and all that. Why not write a letter addressed to him telling all your sentiments and then seal it. Hey, it's really intended not to be sent, right?

The Black Sheep

The night was getting deeper as I trudged along the dark alley leading to the apartment. The misty air and the stillness of the night bring back memories of the past. Memories that I have put on the back burner for a long time now. Memories that served as an envenom that is slowly killing and eating me wholly. Then rain drops started falling and before I knew it, thoughts kept flooding rapidly together with the rain. It’s the first day of my Senior year. I can’t describe the excitement I am feeling as my dad pulled over our Chevrolet in the school’s driveway. I hurriedly gave a peck on dad’s right cheek and went down to meet my friends and gave each other some updates on our summer vacation. The bell rang and we sped up to our rooms and faced our books. Another dreadful year in school again, but at least this will be my last year in High school. I am Eunice, the only daughter of two of the most successful entrepreneurs in the country. An average girl living a grandiose life. I was bo...

Filthy Hands (Chapter Three)

It is already late at night, but one could hardly see the stars for all the smog and haze emanating from the numerous vehicles still clogging the streets. Agnes was busy chatting with the other call girls as Monique hurried up to her. “Agnes, there you are! I’ve been looking all over for you. Have I got the biggest news ever! I’m in love!” Monique squealed as she shook her friend’s shoulders. Agnes shoved Monique away and looked at her with scorn. Letting out a low, mocking laugh. Agnes retorted, “Silly! You? In love? Since when did you learn to fall in love? People like us don’t have any right to fall in love. Love is not even in our vocabulary, it’s just a hindrance in this kind of job.” Monique stared at the air dreamily ignoring her friend’s remarks. “All people have the right to fall in love, and this time I know it’s for real.” Agnes abruptly looked at Monique and slowly shook her head. “Hello?! Are you alright? What are you talking about? I’ve heard that line a hundred times alr...

Reminiscing

It was just an ordinary day like the days before. I was in my room, lying in my bed, while listening to the radio. Then the phone rang… I immediately picked it up and asked who’s on the line. To my surprise, it’s YOU! I never really imagined talking to you because you’re the least kind of person who would call me. I never even knew that you existed. But not until we became group mates in one of our school’s theater play presentation. Then the phone calls became constant, I could say that we instantly jive because we have lots in common, maybe we’re soul friends… or should I say…soul mates? We usually see each other in school and gave each other occasional “hi’s” and “hello’s” whenever we meet along the corridor. Then the time came when I can’t help but take a second glance at you whenever our eyes meet. Maybe there’s something in you, maybe I’m starting to notice your eyes that also smiles whenever you do, or maybe… I’m falling for you. That night was a very memorable one. I don’t ...
