apat na bagsak para kay Father!

“Kahit hindi ka dapat mainis, maiinis ka” Ayan ang naging experience ko last night pagkatapos namin mag bonding ng mga pinsan at kapatid ko sa MOA kasama din si Mama. Nagbakasyon kasi ang dalawa kong nakababatang pinsan sa amin ng apat na araw at kahapon ay inihatid na namin sila kina tita pagkatapos ng Kahit hindi ka dapat mainis, maiinis ka episode.

Masimulan na nga ang pagtalakay sa episode na yun. Pagkatapos mag ikot-ikot ay nagsimba kami sa simbahan ng *toot* (bawal sabihin!) dahil araw ng Linggo kahapon at araw rin pala ng pag-akyat ni Hesus patungong langit. Hehe. Umatend kami ng seven pm Mass sa simbahan na iyon at kamalas-malasan naman! Talagang malas! Na-under pa kami sa paring KSP kung aming tawagin. Nakakapag-sala nga naman.

Iyon ang unang pagkakataon na nakasimba kami sa simbahang iyon pagkatapos ng kasal nina tito doon at iyon din ang magiging kahuli-hulihang pagkakataon na sisimba kami doon. Ayaw na kasi namin ulit ma-under sa “rector” (hindi ko alam kung paano siya naging rector sa lagay na yun) na nag-Misa kagabi. Alam kong hindi ako karapat-dapat na mainis at magalit sa mga pari dahil sila ay mga alagad ng Diyos pero hindi na sa paring ito dahil sa tingin ko, nalampasan niya na ang kanyang limit. Hehe. Masyado kasi siyang nagpapansin sa Misa kagabi. Tapos na ang Homily pero sa kanya hindi pa, dahil bago mag-final blessing nag Homily siya ulit. Homiling hindi ugma sa Gospel.

Sabi niya, sa mga hindi daw nakakakilala sa kanya, siya daw ang masungit, pangit at striktong rector ng parokyang iyon (sinesecond da motion ko naman ang kanyang mga sinabi pero anong pake namin kung siya ang rector ng simbahang iyon. Ang kelangan namin sa mga pari hindi mayabang) Sabi niya dapat sa lahat ng pagkakataon sumasagot daw kami sa mga responses sa Misa at kumakanta. Active participation raw ang kailangan. Hindi niya na daw kailangan ulit ulitin ang dasal at mga tanong (Yup! Alam po namin yun. Hindi po namin first time na magsimba sa shrine niyo.) Sabi din niya dapat daw pinapatahimik ng mga magulang ang mga anak nila tuwing Misa dahil nasa bahay daw sila ni Lord (Naging bata ka ba kahit minsan Father? Hindi ka naman kasi magulang diba. Kung ikaw kaya ang magpatahimik sa mga bata?) Sumasakit na ang paa ko (nakatayo lang kasi kami) pero ayaw pa din tumigil ni Father sa kaka-dakdak. Hindi ko ba alam kung anong ugali meron yun. Ang KSP at yabang pa talaga, para namang hindi namin alam kung pano magsimba. Hindi naman dapat ganun. Feeling niya, siya si Kuya Jesus. Pati yung mga lay ministers niya, kahanga-hanga nga naman! Ganun din! Nung turn ko na kasi para mag-communion, dapat lang na sumagot ka ng amen kapag sinabing “Body of Christ”, pero hindi ata nakapag-buds ng maayos yung nagbigay sa akin ng Host. Inulit ba naman ng malakas ang amen. Kung hindi lang simbahan yun, sasabihin ko sana, “Kuya, makapal na ho ba ang aligi sa loob ng tenga niyo?.” Hehe. Porket “rector” lang kasi ang pari niyo ngayon, mag rerecto-rectoran na kayo diyan. Hehe. At ito pa, obvious na anti-GMA si Father! Hehe. Sabi niya, bakit daw kapag may naimbitahan ang “pang-gulo” sa palasyo, maka pang-libing ang susuotin natin pero kapag sa simbahan kahit pambahay na lang (Agree nga naman ako dun, pero yung sabihan niya si Pres. GMA na pang-gulo imbis na pangulo, mali ata yun. Ganyan ba ang pari?!) Sinabi niyang panggulo lang daw si GMA sa bansa natin?! Parang siya hindi “pang-gulo” ng simbahang yun eh?! Baka nakalimutan niya, rector siya!. Nakakapang-gilati nga naman si Father.

AMEN.

how i wonder...girls are like men too.

Lately did I realize that women are like men too, or more probably...women are more "revenge predators" while men becomes the prey. Lately did I realize that women are more strategic on seeking vengeance than men? That's funny. Well, anyway, maybe you're wonderin' why I included those statements in this article, a funny one. That's because of personal experience which will never be a personal one starting today. Haha.

June 10, 2008, was my first day of being a freshman, being a totally grown-up kid. The succeeding days were fine and joyful but now, I realized that it was cut last December 18, 2008, when a close friend of mine named Valerie introduced a friend of hers which I will call in the name, Jane (not her true name). Before x-mas semestral break, the whole batch celebrated its annual class Christmas party. Then there came Valerie giving me a bag of “Bear Cuddler”. That was weird. Valerie giving me a gift that was so much expensive was what I doubted. Suddenly, I knew that the freakin’ bear cuddler was not from her but from Jane. Man, what does that mean?! I also suddenly felt that the universe was turning upside down; women became men while men had the breasts. Valerie told me that Jane wanted to hand me a gift. I don’t know Jane! I just met her once and never expected that we would meet again just because of that teddy bear with a blue sweater. So what I did was I looked for her and gave her a “thank you” message. As simple as that, then went home to get ready for that annual “Paskuhan 2009” which has been a tradition of our university for many years from now. I went with my elder sister which is also a college student from UST’s Arts & Letters. Jane and I did not meet at the university’s huge Christmas party but we texted, that was the time when she told me that she was also attending Kumon classes, Mathematics & Reading. I just take Math though. She already stopped but I’m still continuing until now. Never mind. So where are we?.

Alright! Well, we developed our friendship with the help of her best friends and my pal. Until she told me that she had a crush on me since from the start. Bummer. Anyway, I also admit that I had a crush on her too, but it happened just after we met. I don’t see her as a “sabohin” type of girl in the campus. Bet you don’t know what that means! Hehe. Many “ants” came between our relationship, that was also because we have been together for two months. Just two months. I know I can’t take it. To be with a girl that will actually betray you. SHE LIED. She has an ex. I knew that since from the start. She told me a lot about Bryan. She told me that he was an “emotional” one, that he was been hospitalized because he tried to kill himself. That proves that Bryan was weak, especially when it comes on “emotion” matters. I hate them. They were both like that. Lately did I know that Jane was also like him, no difference at all, that they are both weak and liars. They easily get depressed pushing them to attempt on killing themselves. Goodness. For Christ’s sake! What was that for?! Here is the thing, Jane cheated on me. Here, read this. For sure you will understand. (This was taken from Jane’s blog)...

“I told him that I Love to hurt myself with a razor and be with Bryan.”

She told me she wants a “cool off” because of education. Of course, I agreed! She said that she don’t want a boy or a boyfriend for real MUNA. But she lied. She actually lied. It was because of that freakin’ Bryan. What a ditch. Anyway, we argued at Yahoo Messenger. A BIG one. Haha. Then a few weeks later, she told me that that was Bryan’s ex girlfriend. She told me that it was not her I was talking to on YM. Funny. But whoa...she’s a clever one. She made a good reason though, that Bryan’s ex girlfriend hacked all of her personal sites. She really does that. Making innocent people look so suspicious. How I wonder why Bryan’s ex girlfriend knows all about Jane and I.

But you know, if I was given a chance to talk to her personally...I'll probably say..

“GO AND KNOCK YOURSELF OUT WITH A RAZOR AND I WOULDN’T EVEN BOTHER TO ATTEND AT YOUR FUNERAL.”

Haha.


Fin.

it bothers me a lot...

Nakalipas na ang dalawang taon at hanggang ngayon ay naiisip ko pa rin kung saan siya napunta at saan siya napadpad. Hinding hindi ko makakalimutan ang araw kung saan siya'y naging isang taksil at traydor. Nobyembre 2006 nang gawin niya iyon, nagulat ako kumbaga'y dahil hindi ko alam na gagawin at magagawa niya iyon. Naging malapit kami sa isa't isa pati na rin sa mga magulang at mga kapatid ko. Sa tingin ko ay apat o limang taon rin siya nag-seserbisyo para sa amin. Kaya sa ganoon ay buong buo ang tiwala namin sa kanya. Nang nagtayo kami ng tindahan na matagal nang inaasam ng aking nakakatandang kapatid, dumating ang dalawa sapagkat kailangang madaming magaasikaso para makabenta ang aming tindahan. Hindi nagtagal lumayas ang isa. Hinding hindi ko makakalimutan iyon sapagkat nung araw na iyon ay aking kaarawan, Setyembre 22, 2006. Pagkarating namin sa bahay ay nagtaka kami kung bakit walang katao tao at pagkatapos ng ilang minuto ay dumating na si _________, tinanong namin sa kanya kung nakita at kung naabutan niyang umalis si ______. Gulat na gulat rin siya. Pero sa sandaling iyon ay pinagdudahan rin namin siya na baka siya ang may kagagawan ng lahat ng nangyayari. Tinapos muna namin ang matinong usapan para mahipan ko na ang mga kandila sa aking tsokolateng keyk.

Pagkalipas ng ilang linggo, araw at buwan ay napapansin naming bumababa ang benta sa tindahan kaya pinasamahan muna namin sa isa naming katulong si ________ para magbenta. Baka kasi sa ganoon ay lumakas ang aming tindahan sapagkat napakamahal ng rentang aming inuupahan sa mall na iyon. Hindi nagtagal lumipat na rin kami sa ibang puwesto, na-lugi kasi kami pati na rin sa aming renta. Nobyembre 2006 nang gumising ang nanay ko para ipaghanda ng umagahan si tatay at ang aking mga kapatid. Sabay niya rin sinabi sa akin na hindi na raw sila nagpakita at naglakas loob na lumayas. Isang taksil! tryador! ang tawag sa mga taong ganun. Pero hindi rin naman natin alam kung ano talagang nangyari at dahilan kung bakit nila ginawa ito. Simula noon ay naging suspect si __________ sa paglayas ni __________ noong nakaraang kaarawan ko. Siguro daw dahil sa pagseselos. Tapos makailan lang, Agusto 2007 nang bumagsak at nabasag ang "batang lalaking" imahe. Natanggal ang kanyang mukha. Kabadong kabado ako noon sapagkat hindi ko talaga inaasahan na mababasag iyon dahil lang sa kakulitan namin ng aking mga kaibigan. Natabig namin ang lamesa at biglaan itong bumagsak. Doon naalala ko na sumumpa siyang pag nabasag daw iyon ay mamamatay na siya o maaaring patay na siya (bigay niya kasi sa akin yun nung pasko) at sa lahat ba naman ng matatanggal ulo pa!! Simula noon ay naiisip kong sumakabilang-buhay na nga siya (hanggang ngayon hindi ko pa tinatapon ang imahe sapagkat iyon lang ang munting magagandang alaala mula sa kanya. Pinaste ko na lang! Solb ang problema!).

behind me.

1:32 pm when I arrived at the basketball court just a few blocks away from our house. I played. Dribble here, dribble over there and shoot!. I stayed there for one hour and because I'm very, very tired, I chilled out at the childrens' playground. My swing goes back and forth while I'm looking up in the sky. Then, something came to my mind... a brother, good and evil, trials and temptations. I tried to relax so I spoke to myself. Just me, the rustling sound of the leaves, the cool breeze, the fortuitous green trees around me. They're my closest friends I ever had because they're the only one that I could talk to who doesn't answer. That only means... they listen. Okay, a brother, they say that if my brother is alive, I'll be dead, and if I'm alive he's dead. As simple as that! They say that we're one. And so it came to my mind, what if we're one? That only means, what I do, he does! What if I do evil?? What if I'm sad or bereaved?? Those questions... it came to my mind that... there is NO sadness in heaven. There is NO such thing as SADNESS in heaven. Only God sees sadness because His only Son also experienced suffering and sadness. If you're sad, don't bother to call the angels, call God directly. His will shall be done.

A dear friend of mine told me this. And.. and if you're too old to go to heaven, no worries!!! You'll see yourself as 33 years old. All things in heaven are EQUAL and HAPPY of course! Okay, so where are we again? Oh right, my brother and I. For everybody's information... my brother died inside my mother's womb and he died the same date I was born. If there is no sadness, there will be no happiness. That's what they say. At present, I'm the only boy. I have four sisters. Believe it or not, my parents had six children just because they wanted to catch a boy. They catched one but unfortunately passed away.

Two years after they catched again, and thank God I'm already here telling you a story. The thing is if my parents missed to create a boy, then, the family's name will end. And... that's my story, that's my mission.. to continue my inheritance.... Abrugena. Got it?? My family especially my grandfather gave his trust to me to ADD. That's why my mother gave me that name... Joseph.. meaning: He shall add. It's just that I thought of it and I don't know why. I was born weird. God willing and to God be the glory. Just telling an experience. Hahaha! No meaning and lesson at all!! Except if you leraned something! Dunno.

There is just a single point I want to be brief with this whole article...that...

THIS IS SURELY A LIFE ACCOMPANIED BY A SECOND PAIR OF HANDS & WILL SOON BE AS ONE. :))

addiction & repentance!

I repent!! huhuhu! i'm really addicted to the sims, last summer sa tingin ko walang araw na ginawa ang Diyos na paharapin ako sa computer, i-on ito at i-double-click ang icon ng sims!! Minsan nga, napipilitan pa akong makipag-away sa little sis ko dahil lang sa larong 'yun. Until....it came to the point that our computer learned to seek revenge! Everytime na ginagamit ko siya, parati na siyang nag-hahang! Pero masyado akong nagpaka-martir, masyado akong naging patient at matiyaga na hindi naman talaga dapat! So....naglalaro pa rin ako and after some weeks....tada!

Nakatakda na pala!!! Hindi na mag-on ang computer!!! huhuhu! Parang nag-luksa talaga ako noon! Pero sinubukan naming ipagawa at naging successful naman! Maraming salamat sa Diyos! Pero...wala na yung sims!! Dahil sabi nila reprogram daw ang ginawa! So what I did was I asked my elder sister politely na iinstall ulit yung game...but...unsuccessful! Ayaw na ma-install! What more can I ask for! I became really tired of hoping and hoping! Nung pasukan pa, matagal ako nag-hope na makakapaglaro ako ngayong summer. Sa loob-loob ko: "Ah! Siguro ayaw pa ni God na maglaro ako kasi may pasok pa! Hintayin ko na lang summer!." But...I'm wrong. The last time that I played the sims was last april 2007 pa, so may two years na rin. Pero okay lang! I deserve it anyway! Masyado me nagpaka-adik at nagpaka-sarap last summer so... syempre okay lang. At least.... I learned a lot! It's a lesson that's very useful and memorable! Anyway..I'm really really contented and happy now with what I have! My family, my friends, my life and my education.

Anyway, this is also a tribute to all addicts..sa dota, counter strike, even sa texting!..

I tell you guys..unahan niyo na ang tadhana! Dapat balanse lang oki?.

Hope you learned something from this experience.

is it more than just a number?

I saw the trailer of Shummacher's "The Number 23" starring Jim Carrey. I got impressed and at the same time...intrigued. I was pushed to know more about the 23 enigma. 23 enigma states that the number 23 influenced the lives of many people. Try searching for more information about this kind of enigma especially things that are connected to you, to your family and friends. Okay...here is the thing..grab a calculator, a pen and a piece of paper. Solve this problem: two divided by three...the answer is...find out yourself and you'll be shocked. From that point forward, it came to my mind that there is really something about this number. Let me give you some of my information and evidences. It could be a coincidence but there's really something.

My grandmother died last March 23 while my great-grandmother died October 23.

Julius Caesar was stabbed 23 times.

23 is the number of an adult's teeth.

Michael Jordan's jersey is no. 23, his father was murdered July 23, 1993

The famous singer Kurt Cobain was born 1967, 1+9+6+7=23 He died 1994, 1+9+9+4=23

It takes 23 seconds for blood to circulate through the body.

Earth spins on an axis of 23.5 degrees.

Look at your keyboard, look at the letter W, W contains 2 downward points and 3 upward points. Look above the letter W. What's the number?. 23

23 vertebrae in the human body and 23 joints in the human arm.

The Titanic sank 4/15/1912, 4+1+5+1+9+1+2=23

The Hiroshima bomb was dropped at 8:15 am, 8+15=23

There are frequent numbers in the book of Revelation: 4 (powerful beasts), 7 (angels, seals and churches) and 12 (apostles). 4+7+12=23

World Trade Center, it was hit by an airplane. W- 23rd letter, T- 20th letter and C- 3rd letter. W- 23 T+C=23

Twin Towers broke down 1976, 1+9+7+6=23

Shummacher's film The Number 23 started filming January 23, 2006

And I also had an experience with this thrilling number, while I was checking some information about this enigma, I was uploading music in my multiply account, until I felt the chills beacause....it read..."Time remaining: about 23 minutes"! And not just that! The pencil that I was holding....there is a price tag that read..."P23.00"! And... the date when my sister and I got left by the bus at school..February 3, so that means...February is the second month...23! So maybe...there's really something. Are thes coincidences? I don't think so.

that evening became the next day...

I woke up fresh and happy but ended my day gloomy. The celebration for mothers' day is near and we have to prepare a gift for mom. My sister asked me if I want to come with them to find a gift for our mother. So we stopped by the folded and hung outlet store near national bookstore and crossings at quezon avenue. So check there and check here if there is a good gift for her, unfortunately we failed to find a perfect one! Instead I was the one who bought something with my elder sister, I bought a jacket and my sister bought a bolero for her to wear during office days. Though those things were very expensive, at least we had a 50% discount! Hahaha! It was called an outlet store so some outfits were already torned up..I mean close on being torned up. Hahaha. I checked out my jacket and it was really fine! It was really good! After 15 seconds...I checked the zipper, it didn't work!!! Ugh! Perfect and cool jacket....never mind the zipper. Hahaha. We bought it. On our way home, we stopped by crossings to look for mom's gift and we also stopped by crossings supermarket to buy my younger sister a brownie fudge! Yum! Yum! Yum! We really had fun and I treasured that day with my two sisters. We came home and we excitedly baked the brownie fudge..(my younger sis is sick, that's why). Successful! Yum! It tasted like a real cake of goldilocks! Hahaha! After baking, we attended Mass, just me and my three elder sisters because just like what I said my younger sister is sick and my mother has to stay with her. My dad was in Japan...a company trip. So we had our Mass and when we got home we had our dinner while watching our favorite...pbb teen edition plus. After eating, I showed the jacket to mom and unfortunately....she got dissapointed. She got dissapointed because we bought an expensive jacket with a zipper that's not working. So my sister just said that we could send it to a tailor. My mom got angry because she said that it was also 100 pesos just for changing that freakin' zipper. I didn't know what happened that night. I felt very guilty, if I didn't went to that outlet store or if I didn't bought the jacket, this will not happen!! I also pitied for my two sisters and for my mother, I really don't know but I know that this could be something..you know..like a plan or something.

Now, I'm feeling fine but NOT REALLY fine. I'm hoping for a better night today.

my stomach hurts! BOOM!!!

Brrrr....been sick, very sick for five days. "Ang programang ito ay hindi angkop sa mga batang nanonood, patnubay ng magulang ang kailangan.." blah.blah.blah. "Naruto! The Greatest Battles!" Then...."Hana Kimi the original" (can't sing the song, it will probably make me crazy making me go to the bathroom again.) I was watching with my three sisters when suddenly..OUCH! I'm so hot! like a kettle you know????!!!!!! Very hot! I felt something was wrong that's why I was pushed to touch my own neck. Bummer. But after a minute....tada! no more...but i felt tired and sleepy..I think i was over fatigued by listening to that "Hana Kimi song" so i slept. Zzzzzzzz....I woke up...HOT AGAIN???!!! Wha...wha...what?????!!!! and I found my suspect....bagyong cosme probably. He made me feel very cold while I was sleeping...(my shirt's too short, that's why). Well..I didn't expect that!!! Really!! So blah..blah. I told my mom, then my sisters...followed by my father because he came home late from work. The next day, Friday, was the start. My stomach aches a lot!!! Making me hug and hug my green pillow which was also the color of my ummm.....never mind. So the next day my mother consulted my uncle which is a doctor and he said "Buscopan!!!" Yeah..Buscopan was the name of that medicine I had to take every six hours for my stomach (It is smaller than the original size of an M&Ms) For sure, you see that in the commercials. The next day....Saturday..was a Joyful Mystery but that day became the Sorrowful. My mother and I went to the hospital to have a stool exam, urinalysis and blood test. All clear! No disease! No typhoid fever or amoebiasis which were our suspects. Thank Lord! So definitely...it was because of virus and bacteria. Damn. The sickness had its break yesterday, Monday. Now, I'm okay! I already took a bath and I feel fresh. Hehe. How cool was that again?!. Hehe.

Thank you Lord!!!
(If you just know what I've been through!!! Very very very ARGHHHH! OUCH! Painful!!!!).

yeeeehaaa!

I couldn't remember how many years has passed but it's been a very long time since I bought this playstation game, Versailles: A game of intrigue. The game was all about royalty blah blah blah..It's all about the mansion Versailles in France, and the royal family that lives there. Anyway, I will never forget the time and the day that I bought that game with my father at Sta. Lucia mall. I think I was seven or eight years old back then. And just last may 9, 2008, I finished it already! It was the very first game that I have finished successfully, of course with the help of walkthroughs and cheats! Hehehe! Thanks to gamewinners.com. Thank you to the characters that cooperated with me too! How cool is that?!. Haha. There were seven acts/levels in that game. Just can't believe it. Thank God.

Hehe. Iyon lang naman.

FIN.

what else??

So tired of hearing news and updates about our country....halos lahat naghihirap na ah! Kasi naman, lahat na lang tumaas....groceries, karne, isda, bigas, gasolina, pamasahe at kung ano ano pa! Ganito na ba talaga ka-desperado ang teritoryo natin???!!! haha. Everytime I hear news like this..I think about those days when Andres Bonifacio, Emilio Aguinaldo and other heroes even Gabriella Silang..a woman!! Fought for our independence! So that we could find the justice that we need and deserve. Hah! Pede na ba akong maging history prof???. (Okay...nag-speech na ako!! Hahaha! Katawa.) Lalo pa nung..narinig ko yung balita tungkol sa karumal-dumal na RCBC robbery massacre na yun. Sinabi na nga rin nila sa news na may mga spirits na daw na gumagala sa bangko...Kanino ba naman kasing spirit ang hindi mag-roroam doon kung ganun ang ginawa sa kanila. Kaya agad ko ring naisip, justicia talaga yata ang kulang sa bansa natin..kasi kung may justicia sa bansa natin..eh di hindi tayo makakaranas ng corruption and poverty. Diba??? Pero...sa bagay..pati nga States eh..ganito na rin ang pinag-dadaanan..Bakit kaya?? hmmmm....At isa pa..ano naman kaya kasing ginagawa nina senator manny villar....bilyon bilyon nga pera nila eh...Sa bagay..may mga problema rin sila. Hindi natin sila masisisi. Baka nga si Pres. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, haggard na eh...hindi lang natin alam....malay natin..mahaba pala buhok nun..nagwiwig lang..tapos baka hindi totoo yung mole. Haha. Cornets...kaya gotta go!!

Anyway....Happy Independence Day na lang! Sabay2 tayong umasenso pinoy!! :D

dahil...

TAYO MISMO.

stranded mode...

Inaantok na ako pero gusto ko ikwento sa inyo 'to dahil 'tumpak' talaga 'to. Last week ito nangyari...exams ko nito, at unexpected na dumating si Karen. Umagang umaga nang salubingin niya kami, pagkagising na pagkagising ko ay nag-iingay na siya at hinihipan niya na ang mga punong nasa labas ng bakod namin. Hindi na ako umaasang ma-sususpendi pa ang klase namin dahil hanggang 10 lang naman talaga kami. Pagkalabas namin sa bahay ay hindi namin maiiwasan na ilabas ang mga payong dahil sa umaampiyas na laway ni Karen. Umaga pa man di nun, morning breath na nga, morning saliva pa. Wala naman tayong magagawa dun. Pagkakababa sa akin ng taxi driver sa uste, akala ko ay magkakasakit na ako dahil sa lamig..buti na lang ay nakapag-enervon ako..haaaaay. Ang lakas ng hininga ni Karen! Halos tumapon ang payong ko hanggang sa makadating ako sa building namin. Pag tumbok ng alas otso sa orasan ay nagsimula na ang exzzzzzzaminasyon. Sagot sagot sagot....dismissal na! Hindi ako umasang walang mga isda na nag-iiswimming sa p.noval at espana, kung saan ako tatawid para kumuha ng fx, kaya naman, agad agad kong kinuha ang aking mahiwagang tsinelas sa locker. Sinuot ko ito at sabay na lumusob sa espana river. Buti na lang talaga ay agad akong nakakuha ng fx kasi kung hindi baka na-tangay na ako ng alon na tutumbok sa quiapo..o diba, high tide na yun. Basang-basa ako....kaya hindi din ako umaasang hindi ako iiwasan ng mga tao sa loob ng sasakyan kasi nga naman basa na sila, mas lalo pa silang mababasa..sinong may gustong mangyari nun diba??!. Praise the Lord at narating ko ang dapat kong marating...nawalan pa ako ng signal..'yan tuloy hindi ako masundo...pero mga after 15-20 minutes ay bumalik na ito.....brrrrrrrrrr.....nakauwi na din sa wakas......ng high at basa....salamat na lang sa asul kong payong at sa aking jacket. hehe. solb na solb.

malas kapag malas...

Friday na pero may pasok pa din bukas, sa SM North Edsa, manunuod kasi kami ng stageplay ng Ibong Adarna, buong batch ng freshmen tapos may kasama din kaming taga-ibang schools. Nakadating ako sa sm ng mga quarter to seven so close pa ang establishment. Nasa labas kami ng cyberzone kasama ko sina rex at ivan dahil hindi din sila sumabay sa bus...kasi nga naman..ako taga tandang sora, qc. Kaya mga 10 minutes galing sa amin nasa sm na ako. Dumating na ang bus ng section namin pero naghintay pa kami ng matagal sa labas kasi hindi pa open ang mall. Mga isang oras yata yun...hahaha...sa wakas naka-pasok na din kami...pero naghintay pa din kami ng mga 30 minutes bago kami makapasok sa sinehan, hindi pa din kasi open ang mall syempre...sa isang oras at tatlumpu't minuto na paghihintay namin dun ay may nangyaring hindi inaasahan. Ihing ihi na ako! nagpaalam ako kay sir para pumunta sa CR kahit alam kong hindi pa ito open...sabi ni sir itanong ko na lang daw dun sa boy kung san yung cr....nung nag-tanong na ako, sabi niya closed pa daw ang mga CRs...sa loob pa lang daw ng sinehan yung open...so dahil hindi pa nga kami makapasok ng sinehan, naghintay pa ako ng sobrang tagal! Sasabog na ako...! mga sampung minuto pa daw...whew! Nakakapagod...kaya naman galaw na lang ako ng galaw, alam niyo naman siguro kung bakit.

3 days of agony, 4 days of happiness

I was taught by my teachers in a private and exclusive school for boys. Nowadays, exclusive schools usually handle GRADE SEVEN students. But...my parents and I made a plan. They decided to pull me out so that I will no longer take grade seven classes. I took an entrance exam at University of Santo Tomas High School. I felt butterflies inside my stomach when I first saw my examination papers. Fortunately, I prayed the rosary the night before and my sisters taught me in Mathematics because that is the subject that I'm ALWAYS being trapped. So...blah blah blah, read here answer there. I wasn't that confident when I answered the last item of the last page. I doubted. March 24, Monday, my father took a look for my result. My mother said that it's early in the morning when my father saw the examination result. Eventhough the results are not yet posted, my father STILL hesitated to check it out by asking a favor from the security guard. I was sleeping very deep when my mother woke me up... WITH A SMILE. That means? I passed! I jumped, smiled, laughed and thanked God! Whew! But wait! Not yet done... the examination is the ELIMINATION! I need to pass the incoming interview or else.. I FAIL. So another set of butterflies... A BIG ONE. I waited for the interview. And I think after six or five days will be the time for me to rejoice. Relax, relax, relax and I shall be fine. The interviewer seemed nice at all. She was attentive and was very interested to hear my answers. Then "Nice talking to you" she said. Another huge trial has PASSED.*laugh*. So I attended the "Incoming Freshmen Orientation" then I enrolled. At last! No need for me to step and jump for the seventh grade because I'm already a freshman and soon I will be a sophomore. So now that I have told you the story, can you figure out the three days of agony and four days of happiness?. A two-thousand cash for the prize. Kidding.

Reming and his unescapable saliva...

November 29, 2006, Wednesday, they said that classes will be suspended the next day. When I woke up, November 30, 2006, Thursday, the morning was very fresh and sunny, even a drop of precipitated water didn't fall from the sky. When my mother, my younger sister and I were buying something at SM North Edsa, my father called to my mother's cellphone and said "Ngayon na tayo mag-punta sa Batangas kasi malakas daw yung bagyo bukas." My mother agreed and we went to Batangas to comemmorate my great-grandmother's 40th day of death and celebrate the baptism of my cousin's first baby. When we left our house in Quezon City at 10 in the evening, rain began to fall, very mad. When we got to our province, Batangas, all of the street lights were shout down because there was no electricity. It was the time when typhoon Reming made its stunt. We hesitated to open the gate of my grandmother's house but we can't step out of our car because of the typhoon but my mother, somehow, tried. Then, at last my grandmother opened the main door for us to get in and escape the fiery breath of Reming. It was such an experience! If you were just there, then you would know how fun it is to be victimized by his power! Really funny indeed.

a pasalubong from Bohol province...

It was April of year 2004 when my whole family decided to visit Bohol. We had a fun trip indeed. That was the first time for me to ride an airplane. I had a few butterflies in my stomach but had gone really fast because of that cool experience. Well, very early in the morning, I think that was 4:00 am when my father asked for two taxies from our subdivision's security guard for us to ride to the NAIA airport beacuse our plane will land at 8:00 in the morning. But let me tell you something, the experience at that cab was not AWESOME. If not for my patience, I will really blow up. It was the gasoline! I was suffocating inside that vehicle! For one hour! I was trying to stand up for that smell during that trip! Lucky that I made it to the airport, or more probably to Bohol! So when my family and I got to the airport, boredom murdered us all. Really sad. At last the airplane came with our eyes being plaine white and our skin, pale. When it was time for us to leave, I became very nervous. I think my knees were trembling. But a few minutes later, after my first step to an airplane, was really enjoyable. We ate Goldilocks Heavenly bread and a tetra-pack of juice. There we go! We landed at an airport at Bohol. Can't wait for an adventure. We rode a van to see our cottage. We checked out the beach, it's like a paradise out there! There was a swimming pool too. The next morning, we woke up very early because my family and I will have an adventure trip, a BIG one. We went to the Chocolate Hills, we bought souvenir items, we went to the hanging bridge, anyway that bridge was really cool, old churches and museums which still stand up to this day especially for tourist's eyes. Though sometimes you'll 'gonna freak out 'cause of freakin' old photos out there. I once thought that their eyes were following my steps. When the sun has grabbed its opportunity to rest, and so are we. We had our dinner at a restaurant who lost its electricity but has grabbed it back and got to sleep! Very tiring. The next day, our second day, was a day to swim, unfortunately, when my father tossed me up to the air (just for fun, and experience, MAYBE.) at the beach, my chin landed on his shoulder. For short, I bit my toungue. Suddenly, myy taste buds told me that there was blood flowing out from them. How unlucky was that?. But anyway, nothing and no one can stop me from finding corals or maybe sharks deep down that sea. Another day has passed and the sun rose again "Goodbye Bohol" was the title of that day. There were a lot more stories hidden behind this vacation, if you want to know more about those "hidden stories", call me. For worst, befriend me. hehe.
