Pagsubok Lamang Ito …
Bawat isa sa atin ay may nakalaang oras ....

Until now I still don’t know if I’ll win or not
But one thing is for sure
At the end of this
Tears will surely flow
I wanted to fight for you

The Luxury Pay Toilet Movement
The “One, Two, Three Deluxe Pay Toilets” which although cost more than most other pay toilets was distinguished by its cleanliness, attendants, extra soft wiping paper, newspapers and magazines in every stall, a small buffet supper, moisturizing cream, lounge slippers, and an ingenious system of pricing that pay toilet companies had until his time not thought of; discounting, depending on what your business was.
Time Lapse
Pull out that photograph. Do you see the faded dots of tears all over your face? Can you count the number of dots or how many times each dot was remade on that photograph? Stop. Your train has arrived.
