sinuka

ito si joy/rena nung kakapanganak lang nya. hindi naka-experience ng diaper yan, puro lampin. wala ring masyadong gatas, puro am.

nung kakaluwal pa lang sa kanya sa ospital, napagkamalan siyang anak ng ita.

ito siya bago mahulog sa kinalalagyan at mauntog ang bumbunan sa matigas na semento sa bahay ng lola nya sa malabon. dahil sa nangyari, nagkalasug-lasog ang utak nya at hanggang ngayon, apektado pa rin ang kanyang pag-iisip; kalat-kalat pa rin.





sinong burara?!






at sinong dugyot?!






isa lang ang sigurado, ang lahi nya ay aso. kulang na lang, pangil.







last and not the least, pa-cute! (payat pa kase sya nyan!)

why do i love postsecret?

maybe because i can feel that some of the secrets posted there are my secrets too. and some secrets touched me in ways i can't explain. they're so raw; very human.

i wish i'd be brave enough to send one of mine.

you may check the touching video here.

once upon a dream

tatlong gabi na akong binabagabag ng iisang panaginip. panaginip na hindi pwedeng istimahin.

ayoko mang isipin, namimilit ang nahihimbing na diwa. kase mas meron syang napapala. parang nananadya. parang namimikon.

minsan, gusto ko nang sabihin sa sarili ko, "hay naku, bravo, itigil ang pagiging malisyoso!"

itutulog ko na nga lang ito....

blue-green

i may be unlucky in love, but i am sooo lucky with friends...

this is the 2nd poem done for me by a friend. the first one came as a surprise for me, coming from an unexpected person, who i now consider one of my closest friend (kahit hindi mutual, hehe!) . and now this one, sobrang touched talaga ako.

with mark's approval, i'm posting this poem that he made, as answer to my "green" poem.

Blue

Took a short breath, and with nothing to hold on to,
I jumped and felt every sensation that I never knew existed.
I did not open my eyes, nor dare to cry, faked one crooked smile
deep inside I was shaking, thought no one’s watching

And there you are. Standing from afar.
You understood things despite the unsaid.
Heard words unspoken. Felt the hurt, half of my tears you silently shed.
Without limit, no nothing from me you expect.

And though I thought it wasn’t possible, can’t believe it was true…
At that time, I wasn’t alone…

I was with you

Salamat, gurl!

ang garapata...

when it comes to politics, i usually have something to say... just not loud enough.

i have long lost my faith in our government, but not necessarily in our people. generally, i still believe that us pinoys, individually, are very conscientious people. but we are also so easily swayed. i dunno who and/or what to blame for it. was it because of 300 or so years of being manipulated? was it because, relatively, we are a very young "independent" country and still needs guidance? we are constantly second-guessing ourselves and the only way to hide our insecurities is through overbearing pretend-confidence.

why the speech, you ask? it's just that it is agitating to see political catfights on tv. take for instance, JDV and Nograles, the news that had been ongoing for weeks now. JDV, being the only politician to hold the Speaker of the House position five times, refused to vacate the seat. accusing PGMA of orchestrating a vote to oust him since his son, Joey De Venecia, implicated PGMA's husband in a corruption scandal. a lot has happened in that particular session, word wars, accusations, controversies raised but in the end, with pride hurt and position forfeited, JDV, in his overbearing pretend confidence, nominated Davao City Rep. Prospero Nograles as the new Speaker. not that i'm very familiar with the ins and outs of politics, but sometimes, change can be good too.

with reliable Google, i have done a background check on the new Speaker. the good, the bad and the ugly. some Davaoenos are strongly against Rep. Nograles. i'm not one who easily believes in rumors, but then again, where there's smoke, there's fire. and i'm torn between the old and the new. between the accustomed and reformation.

unfortunately, the masses would again become the sacrificial lamb in the transition.

and get this, just a few days after JDV was replaced, talks of jumping to the opposition are circulating. Erap already confirmed that the former Speaker invited him for dinner. grrr! naaagit talaga ako!

and with that, i'll end this post with Pol Medina's all-too-real editorial.

(Ang garapata nga naman. Kapag wala nang masipsip sa isang aso ay lilipat sa ibang aso.)

bow.

what gets me thru the day...


besides chocolates and my psp,

are these people....

i've known them since forever.


we've been through flag ceremonies, class projects, field trips, school elections, proms, stalking-celebrities, cutting classes, UAAP rivalry, graduation problems, boyfriends, girlfriends, ex-boyfriends, ex-girlfriends, stressful work, unsuccesful out of town plans and we still can't get enough of each other.

i trust them with my life. they can finish my sentences and man, i hate it when they are sooo right about me. and yes, they know me inside out, and they're still there. talk about pagtiyatiyaga!

*****

just when i thought i'll just breeze through my existence in PS and noone would take notice...

it's actually my whole FD family, but i have to play favorites. i just have to say that, as much hardships and stress that i have to go through to reach where i am now, it is definitely worth it. not only are they some of the smartest, most patient people i know, they are also a lot of fun. and i mean a LOT of fun.

ikaw kase eh

ginawa ko para sa nag iisang tao na nagpakain sa'kin ng lahat ng sinabi ko

hanga ako sa’yo

nagawa mong guluhin ang wisyo ko. sa panahong akala ko’y kumpleto na ako. sa panahong hindi ko kailangan ng istorbo. sa panahong mas nais kong mag-isa.

ngunit iba ka

kung paano ko pinilit na itakwil ka sa isip ko ay sya namang lalong pagsumiksik mo sa puso ko. ang puso kong matagal nang naging bato.

na nakapagtataka

pagkat wala ka namang ginawa upang ako’y mamangha. walang maliwanag na dahilan. tanging puso ang pinapakinggan.

marahil nga ako’y tanga

hindi ko inasahang mamahalin kita. naligaw na ako sa aking mga emosyon. at nalasing na lalo ng aking mga ilusyon.

ayokong mahalin ka

pero bingi na ang pagkatao. hinayaang mahulog ng labis sa’yo.
nagawa mong guluhin ang wisyo ko.

hanga ako sa’yo

melancholy

kakaiba ang gabi na ito. tipid ang mga ngiti at bihira ang salita. tahimik ang mundo.

masyadong tahimik.

ayoko ng ganitong pakiramdam. nakakarindi ang katahimikan.

ngayong gabi, anumang pilit na balewalain ang kalungkutan, unti-unting kinakain nito ang kalooban. hinahabol na ako ng damdaming akala ko ay matagal ko nang naiwasan. at maraming sikretong matagal ko nang naitago ang nagbabantang lumabas.

nakakapagod din palang maging masaya. nakakasawa din maging matapang. dahil dumarating ang mga gabing tulad nito. isang gabing mas gusto mong mag-isa. isang gabing kailangan mong maging mahina.

gusto kong umiyak. ngunit ayaw tumulo ng mga luha.

enkanto kingdom

the last time i was in enchanted kingdom was almost 10 years ago, it was for my 3rd year highschool field trip; i remembered it was raining then. the last time i was there, i only rode anchor's away and up, up and away. and did i mention it was raining?

so forgive me for being soooo excited for this particular trip. i had been looking forward to it since kuya dan volunteered the idea december last year. it was a lot of fun! and since i'm almost 10 years older, i'm a tad bit braver. except for anchor's away (which had been the reason for the almost-10 year-trauma-with-enchanted) and space shuttle, which was close for the day (me still thanking the heavens), we were everywhere.

you may view the proof here. warning: camera whores ahead!

enkanto kingdom




febraury 2007

after almost a month of anticipation, a few weeks of making up a "valid" excuse, a few hours of shyr's shrill voice, aissa's warning and jayson's threat- once-i'm-late infiltrating my subconcious, and a few more minutes of waiting at jollibee, kuya dan's proposed EK plan finally pushed through.

we had a lot of fun. not to mention, new tan (n/a for some of us) and some really wet undergarments. hehehe! we rode almost everything once and rio grande, thrice. we recommend the go kart and atv.

it's definitely worth all of the above.

*note*
these pics are just teasers, taken from everybody's phones. upload from my digicam, soon to follow. (already uploaded)
