This blog is dedicated to the people; who feel the same way as I do; to those who feel pain and suffering;to those who are happy and contented of who and what they are; to those who have a leap of faith.
This is for you, for us.

Make a difference.

Dare to Move. I dare to make one.

Okay. One week to go, pasukan na. Body need not working out. Brain is. 

Shoe(rt) Stories 001: Big Girl

  • Ahh. Now that I'm a grown-up (I think?).. Shopping is becoming a part of my early adult life..
  • Me: Gusto ko ng sapatos. 'Yung pambabae.
  • MM: Eto oh. Doll shoes.
  • Me: Pambabae nga. 'Yung may heels. Big girl na ako. Duh.
  • Three to four shops..
  • MM: Oh, ano? Wala ka pa ring nagustuhan?
  • Me: Wala e. Bigyan mo na lang ako ng pera. Sa Baguio na lang ako bibili.
  • MM: Oh, sige. 200 lang.
  • Me: Presyong pambata? O.o??

Campus Crush 001

Kevin.

Ewan ko ha. Pero mamimiss ko siya. Batchmates kami pero wala na siya. Graduate na.

Ni minsan hindi ko siya nakausap. Ni makasalubong, hindi rin. Palaging salungat ang direksyon namin. Haay. Paminsan-minsan ko lang din siyang nakikita sa campus.

Pero sana… Makita ko pa rin siya. Hindi sa loob ng UP. Sa mundong naghihintay sa akin sa labas. *hopeful*

I’m actually having fun!

Matching Type

You can be the peanut butter to my jelly. Ang tila isang matching type na kantang Perfect Two ni Auburn. Buti pa ng ang mga bagay na nabanggit sa kanta, may ka-match, perfect two talaga. Magkaiba pero pareho pa rin, bagay kumbaga.

Siya at ako, magkaiba pero pareho. Halos magkapareho pero magkaiba sa iisang bagay. Pareho kaming nag-aaral sa UP Baguio, pero magkaiba ng college. Pareho kaming kumakain sa Upper Canteen, pero magkaiba ng mesa at mga kasama. Pareh kaming nasa library, pero siya ay nasa second floor, ako naman, sa first floor. Habulin siya ng chicks, samantalang ako naman ay mga aso. Siya ay langit at ako- nasa langit-langitan lang.

At ang malaking pagkakaiba sa amin, siya ang gusto ko ngunit iba ang gusto niya. Kung kailan ngingitian mo na siya sa unang pagkakataon, meron naman na siyang ibang nginingitian.

Status Update: Shopaholic and Sister

Exactly 1:09 AM, May 30

Shopaholic and Sister (Sophie Kinsella) —- reading’s done! Yey!

Haha! I couldn’t actually remember what time of the day I started reading this book! :D

Some parts of the book put me in tears! Hah! Didn’t see that coming! 

This couldn’t be. Hah! Tears.

— Shopaholic and Sister

I didn’t expect this one. But it really hit me to the core! That part when Becky and Luke were arguing. Becky- making a deal with Nathan Temple; Luke- giving Becky the cold treatment and favored Becky’s sister. Hah! Tissue, please!

He whut?

Geo.

Right. He has changed. Not just a bit. A LOT.

I don’t know. I’m not supposed to say stuff like this about him. We’re not even related. Maybe it’s just I who wants to be “in a relationship” with him.

He has gone away from Facebook for so long. I couldn’t reach him through his phone. And last night came. Last night proved me one thing: something happened. Whatever that something was, it really changed him. He’s a totally different person now. 

Now, I don’t know how I’ll talk to him.

Now, everything’s so blurry.

Now, I’m not even sure if he’s still the one I want.. in my dreams. 

Do I deserve that? Do I?!

  • OK. Tonight, I'm having a good time. Browsing photos, reading blogs, etc. When all of a sudden... My brother gave me one of his "sweetest treats"...
  • Me: Hey, bro! Kita mo oh! Kain naman tayo nito minsan. Libre ko. Mukhang masarap e.
  • Bro: Ano ba 'yan?
  • Me: Ice cream! Yey!
  • Bro: Aah..*FARTS RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME*
  • Me: HOW COULD YOUUUUUUUUUU?!!! Mabahooooooo! Yuck!
  • Bro: Ice cream treat ko sa'yo, ano ka? HAHAHAHAHA!
  • Very nice, bro. Very nice.

Night Trip 001

10:20 PM, Victory Liner Bus Terminal

Pagdating ko sa terminal, nakakagulat ang dami ng tao. Hindi ko akalaing ganoon karami ang mga turista/bakasyunista. Halo-halo ang mga tao. Bata, matatanda, mag-asawa, mag-jowa, barkada, mag-anak. Meron din naman ‘yung mga mag-isa lang. Maliban sa mga tao, may mga malalaking bagahe, mga pasalubong na walis tambo, strawberries at strawberry jam, ube, peanut brittle, sari-saring gulay, atbp. Wow. Ang dami talaga nila.

Kapaparada lang ng bus pero marami na ang nag-unahang sumakay. Karamihan sa kanila ay may kanya-kanya ng ticket. May ilan din na chance passengers lang. Chance passengers. Mga nagbabaka sakaling makasay sa kabila ng kapal ng taong dumagsa sa terminal.

May ilang beses na rin akong bumabiyahe nang gabi pauwi sa probinsiya. Kahit na dilim ang sasalubong sa iyo sa daan, magandang tanawin pa rin ang makikita mo. Hindi ko alam kung maganda nga talaga nakikita ko. Mga ilaw sa bundok. Sa gabi parang dekorasyon lang. Pero kapag sa umaga. Uh, I’d rather not comment on that. LOL. See for yourself. *wink

Teka, nasaan na ba ako? Hmm. Tulog na. Gising na lang sa susunod na bus stop.

*Will soon edit this. Add few things. Yey! 

You really cannot make one behave the way that you want them towards you. Hindi talaga maiiwasan na kabaliktaran ang mangyayari. Susungitan ka kahit maganda naman ang pakikitungo mo sa kanila. Tatanungin mo ng maayos, magbibigay ng— ano ba? Ni hindi ko nga matawag na sagot. Nakakainis lang. On second thought, siguro they are just having a bad hair day.

Will you marry me?

  • This is one of the few things, one of the smallest chances you could have with your crush.
  • OK. Now this is weird. I am weird! Gah! I shouldn't have asked him that way. Argh! Stupid, stupid! Ha-ha! I couldn't help laughing! Ha-ha!
  • Me: Ku-ya.
  • Him: Bakit A-te?
  • Me: Aw. Hesitant talaga ako nun una pero kasi... Will you marry me?
  • Me: Lol. Hinde
  • Him: Ano daw?
  • Him: Lasing ka ba?
  • Me: *GOBSMACKED*

Okay. Now. I’m in front of my monitor. Using a broadband. Wi-Fi is well and signal is excellent. BUT WHY CAN’T I ACCESS THE INTERNET?!

Really. This is weird. I haven’t touch anything. Well, excluding the fact that I tried to fix the problem. But I didn’t touch that much! And I think there was nothing I did that made the situation even worse. Anyway, this started last month. Since then, thanks to broadband I could connect to the Internet.

I am really hoping someone would help me out. And, by that I mean, no pay-help. :)

I have tried one of my known tech-savvy friends. Yet he finds it hard either. Why, oh, why? :/
