Here’s a song that I really really like…

KANLUNGAN – Noel Cabangon

Panapanahon ang pagkakataon

Maibabalik ba ang kahapon

Natatandaan mo pa ba

Nang tayong dalawa ay unang nagkita

Panahon ng kamusmusan

Sa piling ng mga bulaklak at halaman

Doon tayo nag simulang

Mangarap at tumula

Natatandaan mo pa ba

Inukit mong puso sa punong mangga

At inalay kong gumamela

Magkahawak-kamay sa dalampasigan

Malayang tulad ng mga ibon

Ang gunita ng ating kahapon

Ang mga puno’t halaman

Ay kabiyak ng ating gunita

Sa pag-lipas ng panahon

Bakit kailangang din lumisan

Panapanahon ang pagkakataon

Maibabalik ba ang kahapon

Ngayon ikaw ay nagbalik

At tulad ko rin ang iyong pananabik

Makita ang dating kanlungan

Tahanan ng ating tula at pangarap

Ngayon ay naglaho na

Saan hahanapin pa?

Lumilipas ang panahon

Kabiyak ng ating gunita

Ang mga puno’t halaman

Bakit kailangang lumisan

Panapanahon ang pagkakataon

Maibabalik ba ang kahapon

Lumilipas ang panahon

Kabiyak ng ating gunita

Ang mga puno’t halaman

Bakit kailangang lumisan

Panapanahon ang pagkakataon

Maibabalik ba ang kahapon

my mom, lola and sister are here na!

Just as I was sleeping our doorbell rang and our always noisy dogs started raising hell…fucker..ingay ingay hirap na nga makatulog..i was cursing while I was on my way to the door and vowed to give whoever it was hell for waking me up just as I was about to sleep…when, lo and behold, it was my mom, sister and lola na pala! Turned out that their plane touched down a couple of hours than the appointed time…Got to sleep na around 7am and woke up around 930..so sana di ako bangag during my shift da ba…i’m so happy…may tao na ulet sa hws…may ksama na ko sa kwismas :)

its damn frustrating

I’ve been “gyming” religiously-as in everyday- and nothing is happening. For the first few days I started this “go to the gym cult” I’d weigh myself everyday and instead of losing weight I was getting heavier. Everyone says its because of the developing muscles..o sya sige..so I conjured up a new training plan for myself and concentrated on the cardio and my target areas are: abs and upper arms (flabby glabby)…so i’ve been doing that for the last 2 weeks and i’m on my third week na but albeit the hard work NATING ES HAPENENG!!!!!!!! I looked at myself (…taba taba taba…) in the mirror after gym…actually I flailed my arms to check if my arms are still like a waving flag and, sad to say, they still are…bayang magiliw…. I piched my stomach and lo and behold malaki pa din…nynyenye….@$*Y*#$* I’m so frustrated na! What else should I do pa ba???????? fucker… I stay long na nga sa treadmill and other cardio machines..did more reps sa free weights and abs..don’t eat too much and still nada. nil. go back kaya to taking hydroxycut? bahala na. i’ve no money din to buy those damned pills.

A week from now Adrian will be leaving for Cebu and he’ll be staying there for 1-3 months depends on how good or bad the new RTA will be. I hope s/he’s not a slow learner so that he can go home asap. The deal at first was that they’ll fly him back during the holidays. Holidays as in a couple of days before christmas and after the new year na sya babalik sa Cebu tapos now they said na they’ll fly him to Manila mga 24 and back to Cebu on Christmas Day or early morning the 26th. Shit. PS tlaga puro BS. He wants to me to go with him to Cebu and he’ll pay for it daw but I really can’t. Aside from my mom, sister and lola are coming home there are other things din where we can spend the money on like pambayad ng credit card bills and shopping shopping shopping..tsaka na ang travel travel. So next week I’ll be a lonely girl. i don’t have kasama anymore…wala na akong driver…wala nang …bleep bleep…I just hope that this trip will do something for him. That’ll it’ll help him to advance in his chosen career. Me, eto ganito pa din…bagay nga tlaga ako na sa house lang…housewife ba.

3 days to go!!! My mom, sister and lola are arriving na! Yipee…may buhay na ulet sa house and I have na kakampi against stupid dog. For those who doesn’t know stupid dog is my -ugh- older brother. Simply put HE IS KUPAL. I’ve managed throught years to prove that it’s not just me who hates him but a lot of people who by single interaction with him had arrived at the same conclusion that he is KUPAL. I don’t wanna ruin my happiness by making kwento about him..let’s not ruin the year!

kainis…i had been planning a despedida for Adrian a couple of weeks back but I had to tell him about kse he told me that his cousin was planning a christmas party for them (cousins). I told him para at least he can tell his cousin not to schedule the same time na I scheduled my party for him but lo and behold his cousin scheduled the same day the 28th @)#*$&%&%*%U% hay naku wag na nga tapos he had the gall to tell me pa “we’re attending a party this friday sa south side!” He knows na I hate that term and the fact na he was so excited pa and that he chose to forget my supposedly surprise despedida makes me tick…pota wala ng party party pumunta ka ng Cebu mag isa ngayon. Whoops there goes my Cebu trip….bwahahahaha…I also don’t like going to their family’s gathering. Actually when I say gathering yung mga young ones lang and not the titos, titas and his parents. Basta pag pupunta ako kailangan pag wala na yung mga yun or di tlaga sila kasama. Why…because ..i dunno ask HIM Sometimes i feel like I’m dating a high school kid and I’m the guy and he’s the girl who’s trying to conceal our relationship from her parents…he doesn’t know that I’m kinda pissed off na (don’t worry he does not read my blog on a regular basis). We’re both old enough to get married and I feel like we’re a pair of high school kids or a couple engaged in an illicit affair…it sucks…i never really voiced out my opinion regarding this..i’m not the type…but it definitely sucks..it’s one of those things that you just put aside and don’t think about so that you don’t feel the pain or the uneasiness…it’s one of those things that when you think about it makes you think why and you feel hurt and hollow inside…basta! it’s kinda difficult to explain the feeling basta its not nice…haayyyy (very very heavy sighing)

Another reason why i don’t like going is because he leaves me. I don;t have any one na ka close sa family nya except his brothers siguro but of course they’d mingle with their cousins so me, all quiet and feeling shitty sa isang sulok…i told him na about it before but he ALWAYS “forgets”. I’m not the type who’d start a conversation with just anyone e me pa! And some of the people there din are not the type of people I’d go with coz some of them are loudy and rowdy and their “jokes” are downright corny…shit, if I go I should be practicing na my fake authentic looking smile..bummer…

squint your eyes and look closer

I’m not between you and your ambition

I am a poster girl with no poster

I am thirty-two flavors and then some

and I’m beyond your peripheral vision

so you might want to turn your head

cause someday you’re going to get hungry

and eat most of the words you just said

both my parents taught me about good will

and I have done well by their names

just the kindness I’ve lavished on strangers

is more than I can explain

still there’s many who’ve turned out their porch lights

just so I would think they were not home

and hid in the dark of their windows

til I’d passed and left them alone

and god help you if you are an ugly girl

course too pretty is also your doom

cause everyone harbors a secret hatred

for the prettiest girl in the room

and God help you if you are a phoenix

and you dare to rise up from the ash

a thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy

while you are just flying back

I’m not trying to give my life meaning

by demeaning you

and I would like to state for the record

I did everything that I could do

I’m not saying that I’m a saint

I just don’t want to live that way

no, I will never be a saint

but I will always say

squint your eyes and look closer

I’m not between you and your ambition

I am a poster girl with no poster

I am thirty-two flavors and then some

And I’m beyond your peripheral vision

So you might want to turn your head

Cause someday you might find you’re starving

and eating all of the words you said

swinged by a couple of blogs during the first half of my shift and found some interesting links:::

Hobo Signs & Symbols http://www.slackaction.com/signroll.htm#

Academy of Sorcery http://www.academyofsorcery.com/index.htm

:::so, where do I sign up:::

Saw a funny “article” made by a fellow “blogger” (what a term) To the owner of this article, I forgot to take note of your url. Pahiram lang :) ay white girl pala sya…pa-borrow!

Oneness

You know the kind of toothbrush holder that has four holes in the top, so the average American family can share it? That’s the type Doug and I have in the master bath.

Two toothbrushes, four holes. Lots of space to stake a claim. Perfect, right?

When I place my wet toothbrush in the holder, I put it directly opposite his, with the bristles facing out, on the side closest to my sink. Kind of like when I turn away from him in a queen-sized bed, and prefer to face my end table.

When Doug puts his brush away, he snuggles it into the vacant hole right next to my brush, even if mine is still dripping wet, and he points the bristles squarely in my direction.

What’s more, I am gathering evidence that he even turns my brush’s bristles to face his so they’re nearly touching, almost kissing.

It kind of freaks me out. It’s like our toothbrushes have boundary issues.

The thing is, our toothbrushes are identical, having been free gifts from the dentist in exchange for giving him our retirement money every six months. Sometimes, if they’re nestled too close together in their little spot, I cannot tell them apart. The older they get, the closer they come to resemble each other, even though he is much harder on his than I am on mine.

My little brush struggles in vain to hang onto its identity. They’re a great couple, but sometimes this oneness thing can be overwhelming.

There’s a brand new purple toothbrush in the linen closet that I’m thinking of using. If I do, I’ll sidle it up nice and close to that white one in the next hole over, and lose my fear of confusing one with the other.

And then I’ll hop in bed and roll to the middle to kiss the man I love.
