Realization #854

With all the recent happenings in my life it was you who came to my mind and I hate myself for realizing this too, too late.

You're the one that I need all this time.

Believe me!

I just finished watching Got2Believe. Syet pang-ilang beses ko na 'to pinapanood. Wahaha! Pero kilig pa rin talaga. I love, love Toni Villacosta and Lorenz Montinola! Grabe. *kilig*

Me=Toni talaga! Wahaha! Well, except for her "easy" part. Everything else is me. Kaya naman love na love ko ang movie na 'to.

Okay, baliw na talaga. Ahaha!

Lesson: If you really want somebody tell her/him before he/she is gone. Pero bago yan, bilis-bilisan mong ma-realize na gusto mo talaga siya dahil if you realized it too late, wala na. Sorry na lang.

Help US!

Sybil and I are going bonkers. Grabe na 'to.
With only two hours of sleep, Sybil is creating a "reality show" in her imagination.
Ako naman tuwang-tuwa. At tawa ng tawa.
If I can only write the whole story here. Haha!
We are really mental.
We are going down the drain.

P.S.
Kapag nakita niyo ang kahit sino sa amin na tumatawa mag-isa,
bring us back to reality by all means.

Hahahaha!

Surprise!

Our Bio prof had a surprise for us. And surprised we are! I wasn't expecting her to bring an actual live example of what we are discussing.

Yes! A snake! A reptile that is pretty in yellow. :)
Suddenly, our Bio class is interesting!

The Atomic Level

The reason why I won't have boyfriend EVER is because the guy I'm looking for has to be on the ATOMic level. Required na nga ata yun. Hehe.

And what do I mean by ATOMic level?

You have to talk like this (Ooops! You have to download the podcast to hear this.)

and

Look like this. (Hindi pa ito ang best picture niya.)

Yun na yun. So hindi na talaga ako magkaka-boyfriend.

Maging Sino Ka Man: Celine and JB's goodbye

Transcript ng pag-uusap ni Celine at JB. Eto yung part na tinapos na nila kung ano man ang nangyari sa kanila noon.
Adik na talaga ko!!!

***

Celine: Kamusta ka na?

JB: I...I've been better. So many things are happening right now. Honestly, I don't know if I can still handle it. You? How are you?

Celine: Well, I can say that I'm happy and peaceful. Masaya naman kami ni Bryan.

JB: That's good. I was suprised that you wanted to meet up. I never expected you to still show concern. I am glad you reached out. You dont know how much this means to me now. Thank you.

Celine: Nung nabalitaan ko yung tungkol sa RSL, my first instinct was to rush to you. Tanungin kung okay ka lang, kung nakakaya mo ba yung mga problema mo. Aaminin ko sa'yo JB sobrang nag-alala pa rin ako sa'yo pero pinigilan ko yung sarili ko. I don't wanna make a fool out of myself... again. Ayoko magmukhang tanga kasi alam ko at tinanggap ko sa sarili ko na hindi na kita mahal. Pero ganun pa din kinailangan ko pa ring malaman kung okay ka lang kasi kahit kahit sabihin ko man sa isip ko ngayon na hindi na kita mahal, you're still inside of me. I still care for you. I will always care for you, JB.

JB: I know what I'm suffering. I know it's just karma. Sinaktan kita. And I'm really, really, really sorry, Celine, for all the pain and hurt that I have caused you. I know I can never take those back. No matter what I do I can never, never redeem myself to you.

Celine: JB, kung hindi mo ko sinaktan nang sobra, kung hindi mo ipinadama sa akin kung gaano kasakit ang magmahal, kung gaano nakakabaliw ang magmahal, I wouldn't be who I am today. You made me stronger, JB. Pinatibay mo yung pagkatao ko. Hindi ko inakala na masasabi ko sa'yo ang mga salitang 'to pero salamat. Maraming salamat, JB, dahil naging bahagi ka ng buhay ko.

JB: If I can live again, I won't change anything. I'd make it right. I'll make it better. If we can turn back time I would.

Celine: Lahat ng nangyayari sa buhay natin may dahilan. So, no regrets. No regrets, JB. So I guess this is it.

JB: What?

Celine: I guess this is goodbye. Be strong, JB. Alam kong makakaya mo ang lahat.

Attack of the Renaissance Women

Today is such a busy day for me.

NOON.

Sybil, Lem, Arianne, and yours truly explored McDermot Street. We actually went there to visit only the Semai Gallery but ended up exploring the strip of stores.

It's really a cool street. You can find galleries and art stores on every corner. Boutiques offer stylish (and expensive!) clothes. There's this different atmosphere you won't find in any other street in this city.

We were joking about being an intellectual and "fitting in" while dining in Mondragon where, we found out, artists, political activists, and other "thinkers" hang out. Incidentally, they serve organic food so we had the chance to try organic burgers and desserts (cheesecake!).

Osborne now has a competition in our hearts. Pero panalo pa rin ang cheesecakes ng Baked Expectations! Hehe.

NIGHT.

Together with my sister and my mama, I watched Sarah Geronimo's The Other Side of Sarah. She has Mark Buatista, Kris Lawrence, and Jimmy Marquez as guests.

It was fun, fun, fun. Sarah is so good. Better than the first time I saw her perform live. And surprise, surprise - she can REALLY dance. I like the fact that she (and the people behind her) decided not to be another Regine Velasquez. Though I still think Sarah has yet to develop her own style of singing (since she has this tendency to "copy" the style of the original when she covers songs), I still think she is one of the best singers around. She will be one BIG star someday. (BIG = Sharon Cuneta famous!)

I love Jimmy! A neophyte in tours but he can really own the crowd. Panalo mga hirit niya! You know, ey. Haha!

I'm so looking forward to the next concert! Guess who will be here in June?

It's Ogie Alcasid and Aiai delas Alas!

Yay!

If I could, I would

If only I could vote I would. Inaabangan ko pa naman ang eleksyon na pwede na akong bumoto kaso hindi ko na naabutan. Wala na ako sa Pilipinas nung pwede na akong bumoto.

Kaya eto na lang. I made banners for those who CAN vote. Eto na lang magagawa ko para makisali sa eleksyon sa Mayo. You can grab it and put it in your blogs or Friendster profiles.

Hindi eto yung real sizes. Click on the images to get them.

Selling Sex in Heaven

Ang daming pumasok sa isip ko habang pinapanood ito.

Gusto kong sisihin ang kultura, gusto kong sisihin ang gobyerno, gusto ko sisihin ang mga taong mapagsamantala na nagbebenta ng batang babae sa mga bar, gusto ko sisihin ang mga sexist at racist na mga lalakeng pumupunta sa mga casa...

Kanina sabi ko kay Austine, hindi ko rin maalis na sisihin ang mga babaeng ibinebenta ang sarili nila dahil sa isip ko, kung gustong humanap ng isang tao ng paraan para mabuhay, makakahanap siya kung magtitiyaga lang siya at hindi kailangang humantong sila sa ganitong propesyon. Nung napanood ko kung ano ang nangyari kay Mila - ibinenta siya ng isang taong pinagkatiwalaan niya sa isang club - naisip ko na may mga pagkakataon talaga na naiipit ang isang tao, ang isang babae, sa isang sitwasyon at wala na siyang magagawang iba kundi ibenta ang sarili niya.

Maraming mali na dapat itama pero wala na atang pumapansin.

Ngayong eleksyon, ang dami na namang pangako ng mga pulitiko, dapat ba kaming umasa ng matutupad ang mga iyon, o habang buhay na lang ba kaming manonood sa kung paano niyo pabagsakin ang isa't isa? Kailan ba papansinin ng mga pulitiko ang mamamayang Pilipino?

Loving Astronomy

Believe it or not, my favorite book when I was a kid isn't a story book but a book about the universe. I know, I'm not a science person now but then, I was fascinated by it. Science WAS my favorite subject. That book which I really love contains real pictures of the outer space and is recognized by a certain astronomical group which sounds bigtime. These, naturally, fueled my amazement. It's not actually a kid's book but I loved it. My tito bought it here and sent it to me to the Philippines. I was really young then. I could still remember how I tried to understand everything that is written in the book which, of course, contains big words - big, scientific words. I love, love, love that book. It's probably sitting there now at our bookshelf in the Philippines with my Sweet Valley collection.

I just love astronomy. I may dislike physics which plays a big part on it but I still love the universe and everything in it. I am fascinated by the idea that there is something bigger than the Earth. Weird but I usually imagine (until now) that the universe is a box that is owned by someone bigger and more powerful than us. I picture that "box" placed on a cherry-finished side table. Weird, I know. I also like the possibility of other humans in another planet. That would be really awesome. Haha!

Naisip ko nga kanina na sana Astronomy na lang kinuha ko instead of Biology. But hey, I have to admit I am quite contented with my Bio class last term. May natutunan ako kahit papano. :)

Happy Birthday, Joyce!

Just got home from Joyce's handaan. :) Ayun, chill lang kami at the usual kwentuhan the whole time. Ang iingay talaga namin. Palakasan ng boses, grabe. Haha!

Focus, focus!!!

I am currently doing a lengthy and quite heavy blog entry. I made it in less than an hour so it badly needs editing before I publish it here. I'm hoping to finish it this weekend. The entry is about something that have been bothering me for quite a while. Kaya ang bilis ko nai-type lahat dahil ang tagal na nun sa utak ko at ngayon lang ako nagkaroon ng oras na gawin ang dapat gawin.

Hay, it's really therapeutic to have blog. It keeps me sane with all the things I'm thinking about. Hahaha!

Believe it or not, I actually enjoyed my English class this morning. Our instructor let us discuss the assigned poems on our own and it really pushed me to analyze them. Geez, if only I can do that every week I would do better in that class.

Why am I listening to MYMP recently? Their cover of Only Reminds Me of You have been played 26 times (and counting) according to my iTunes and it's still on my Recently Added playlist at that. What the...?! Well, I was listening to it often but I don't realize that I listen to it that much. There was an MYMP overload before plus the fact that they do not make their own songs and just revives everything so I grew tired of them. But okay, I listen to them again because of this song.

I tried to run from your side

But each place I hide

Only reminds me of you

When I turn out all the lights

Even the night

Only reminds me of you
