		<description>am glad to see one "silent" post from you, my dear Rhode. are you breaking it now? let me share with you a poem i wrote year ago:

it’s deafening—the quiet stillness of the night
wondering why it is so
to shout out loud only to hear
the quiet mockery of my very call
brought by echoes from nowhere
just like the veiled sarcasm of bitter moments
when in a crowd but feeling alone
only to be lost in what i call my own
i have been through this many times
but i haven’t felt such pain, such bitterness
now i can tell one from the other
just like telling moments from memories
loneliness and aloneness are two different things.</description>

		<description>ah so there's a quote for me... If I'm doing interviews or meetings, I am bothered by silence. I always get the urge to say something! Weird.</description>

		<description>I recently had problems with noise in our community as more and more children have began to play within our vicinity, after the roads there had been cemented and the sidewalks fully concreted. I had to berate them a little. At home, silence gives me great comfort...</description>

		<description>Toe, I like complete silence too, but not pitch-black darkness.  I usually sleep with at least a subdued light on.</description>

		<description>Hi, Belle! I'm quite fine, yes, thank you.

Ay naku, when you get so used to the kids' noises, and then suddenly they are gone, mabibingi ka hindi lang sa katahimikan, kundi sa kalungkutan din!</description>

		<description>Ang pinakamahirap siguro, Cheh, e, yun bang maingay ang paligid, marami kang naririnig na nagsasalita, pero alien ang salita nila sa iyo at wala kang maintindihan. :(

I'm sure you have well adjusted now though. But then, there's no place like home.</description>
