0 Still Your Little Girl

I thought I was strong, but hell I long for that one person who has taught me to laugh despite broke and disabled...my pappy. And am missing him so darn badly I ended up crying.

0 Zane+Moi= Out of the Blue Trips

Twas the 23rd of May, after the tedious campaign, Zane and I decided to reward ourselves. At around 6 p.m., we are aboard a bus at Cubao to Tagaytay. Seiously, we aint have a clear plan of what we wanna do, we just wanna go there. Three hours later, we are both beaming as we reached Tagaytay rotonda. Since everything was pretty unplanned and we are both "newbies" in the area (we have been to Tagaytay but this was our first time to come there on commute), I felt kinda lost seeing only colorful lamposts. After a short prayer asking for guidance so as not to be lost, I saw the sign...it aint the shinning star of Bethlehem but the distinct green logo of Starbucks. Without second thoughts we went down the bus and explored the lights and sights of Tagaytay by night.

Let our photographs tell the rest of our unplanned trip




bus ride to Tagaytay: Fare: 121 bucks



At Leslie's entrance...boy we're hungry not only with food but with photos to treasure the night




Zane's contemplating what to have for dinner (for sure there'd be no more chocolate cupcakes...hehehe!)






Dinner is served!

Menu: Since we are on a tight budget, we opt for simple yet delectable Sinigang na Tanigue. Yummy!




After feasting...Zane acted as a fairy godmother and granted my long term dream... coffee @ Starbucks Tagaytay

0 To The Light

Whether it was second childhood or a simple craving that you wanted a ginormous pizza or a steaming bowl of Chinese noodles, don't worry 'coz twas cute.

The glow in your eyes when we were in your so-called playground of endless silvers and chinas, and found joy by just merely looking at them was indeed precious.

The way you laugh and cheer whenever we beat the computer opponent in Family Feud sounds really melodic.

If only I could capture and preserve these moments, I would.

You are cool and smart
Brave and loving
Patient, patient, patient

What more can I ask?

For the person who loves me and kid bro unconditionally

Beyond our tantrums
our hardheadedness
No matter how fat or ugly we feel, still you see us as your beautiful lil angels.

To you our light, a day of delight.

I love you.

0 Just so you know

It ain't that easy...really.
For now
Just let me be.

0 Silver

It began today...25 years ago
The start of an ardor that lead me here

It may have ended on a sad note
Still I need to be grateful

Thy bond may have been broken
Six-feet under the other half went

To you I offer who I am now
You made me whole, my existence complete

I love you.

0 And so The Script kinda read my thoughts

It's been a while since the two of us talked
About a week since the day that you walked
Knowing things would never be the same
With your empty heart and mine full of pain

So explain to me how it came to this
Take it back to the night we kissed
It was Dublin city on a Friday night
With vodkas and coke, I was getting insomniac

We were sitting with our backs against the world
Saying things that we thought but never heard
Oh, who would've thought it would end up like this

But everything we talked about is gone
And the only chance we have of moving on
Was trying to take it back before it all went wrong

Before the worst, before we met
Before our hearts decided it?s time to love again
Before too late, before too long
Let's try and take it back before it all went wrong

A toast to ten years of
fun,
tears,
joys,
pains
and most importantly
unwavering friendship!

Yeah, we are certified Beerkadas!

No matter how bad sounding "Patay Gutom" is
We have given the term a new twist...

"Patay Gutom" = relieve hunger

We long to conquer hunger with good food, hearty laughs, humor and witty conversations.
Or simply choose to "Go Green" even in simplest things.

Long live our intertwined stomachs!

0 If Only...

Rather slap me than tell me that I don't wanna do things for you 'coz you know it ain't true.
It's not just you who have burdens.
It's not just you who's stressed out.
It's not just you.
Think of the people 'round you, their situation.
You don't own the world's greatest miseries, there are some who carries a greater load than you.
Don't just throw accusations and point fingers.
Try asking why.
If only you know.
If you only ask.
Maybe, if you just try
You gonna hurt people less.

0 Responsibilities and Longings

Got a lil loaded over tons of writing blah. But I did, however, accomplished a lot of things the last few days that makes feel all adult and responsible. Been back to reading paperbacks lately as well. Makes my life a lil normal now but still having some questions popping my mind and tasks waiting to be done.

While things are getting somewhat normalize, my alter-ego still possess unbearable longing of some sort.

Time will pass...it will get by.

0 One Down

Already finished one semester of my masteral. It feels good to know that your hard work gets appreciated (Doc Joey's commendation about our paper's so damn cool!). I still have to make a module and curriculum though. Statistics exam went well too. (Chicken as what I told my cousins but I pray it doesn't give me and egg...nyeahahahahaha!!!)

Still have Org Comm to face.

So far so good...:)

0 Wishes

Been getting a lot of answered wishes lately.
Ain't that good though, coz' it leaves me all the more confused.
Zane's right.
I should be careful about the things I wish for.
Seriously.

0 Simple life

And I thought life can be a little less complicated this time.
I assumed wrong.
Totally.

0 Just a Thought iii

Would you deny being in a relationship with someone when the only reason that he left you is because he...died?"

How do you answer the question "Are you in a relationship?" when the only reason you are no longer with him is because he passed away. Do you say YES, and take the pains of narrating each heartbreaking detail that will send you to tears later on or simply say NO and feel guilty of denying the person who holds your heart.

Tough...really tough.

To my new found buddy...I feel you.

0 Of Aprons and Boxers

Your nearness sends me to the highest
The 911 of my distress
So close...real close
Only in my dreams

0 And so they think am a sports buff

First is my "all canal" stunt in that so-called OU bowling tournament.
Yeah it was. *Shame on me*

But lemme redeem myself a little, it was my first time to play ten pin bowling in my 24 years of existence. And I came there just for fun. Having the balls all canal makes it all frustrating and funny at the same time. Its like every bowling ball I touch gets cursed and are bound to that sidelines.

Now, our good ol' El President just sent me an SMS informing me that I'll be playing badminton on Saturday. What makes it harder for me to say no was the fact that the program chair requested that I play. Jesus!

I know I can somehow score on this one but am already rusty. The last time I played serious badminton was for the love of grade during college freshmen PE.

This is getting somewhat like hell...

0 Just a Thought ii

Being a member of the cultural minority does not give you the license to coerce and harass people to give you alms and is not an excuse for you not to work and to depend solely on other people for your daily living."

I have nothing against our brothers and sisters from the cultural minority but what happened to me is such a scary experience.
