on loop: malakas na ulan
nanganak na si haydee! haydee's our very trustworthy and loved kasambahay. it's a baby girl, pero i'm not yet sure what her specs are... kung ilang pounds, height, etc. me, bea, sunshine and lisa went to the hospital kanina to check up on her, pero nasa delivery room pa daw so nag-kape na lang muna kami. thanks guys for helping me out with my math, sorry sumakit pa mga ulo niyo hehe.
wala... natutuwa lang ako for her. i'm sure it's pretty little girl. i want to buy some baby stuff for the kid... like bibs and baby bottles and stuff hehe. kaka-excite :) hope she had a normal delivery and that she didn't have a hard time. i'll see her tomorrow... i was told na uuwi na tomorrow afternoon. oh and one more thing, the girl who won the lotto gave me balato, 1 thou! hehe not bad, since we're not close naman. i'll just spend that money for haydee and the baby.
anyway, GMA finally broke her silence ah. good for her... i'm not so sure about the details, but it's showing right now on TV and it seems like she really admitted to having made those garci conversations. i just dunno what her alibis are... hope they'd be valid so the state of national unrest would die down, it's severely wreaking havoc on our economy kasi :(

ala lang
on loop: master showman (walang tulugan!)
i just got home. ayayay. when i got home, sabi ng dad ko nanalo daw ng lotto yung kapitbahay namin! napa-shyet tuloy ako. ayoko sana maniwala... ang swerte naman niya. P16 million pesos daw yung jackpot na napanalunan niya for last friday night's draw. lucky duck... sarap nun. swerte :) sana ako din swertehin hehe.
*****
anyway, gaya ng sabi ko kakauwi ko pa lang. naglibot-libot lang, then we ended up in alex de leon's despidida party. ayoko talaga sana bumaba ng kotse, kasi ilang years ko na ring 'di nakikita yung tao. mga six years na yata or seven, kasi he migrated to canada when we were in high school. gradeschool friend ko na sobrang bait talaga. he's one of the very rare people in this world, na sincerely mong masasabi na mabait inside and out. crush na crush ko pa yun dati hehe. anyway, i ended up going down and dropping by his party to say hi kasi he's leaving na daw sa july 2. he hasn't changed, bait pa rin. i just felt sad that he has to leave nanaman... but as bea said, i should be glad at least nakilala ko siya. he said he might come back december of next year pa, and hopefully i could get to see him again. thanks bey sorry dragged you there pa, and thanks li for the encouragement hehe.
when i finally saw him parang gusto ko matunaw sa sahig nyahaha. pangit. kahit saglit lang iyon, i was glad to have had that time with him. we left and got a drink in cantina then i ended up going back to his despidida again in greenhills. dinamay ko pa si bea (sorry!) even if she didn't know him personally. i hope canada would treat him well and that maybe magkita-kita ulit kaming lahat sometime in the future pag mas matanda na ang lahat ng tao. it was good to see everyone else, mostly people from my high school. when we left (kasi mag ti-three na pala), magdo-dota pa pala sila. how nice. parang di sila nagkahiwalay... intact pa rin yung friendship, walang ilangan. anyway, just wanted to keep a record of this day (2 hugs in a night! anko di ko to dapat makalimutan hehe joke) Ü di kasi ako makatulog eh. magya-yahoo games na nga lang muna ako eh.

father's day
on loop: butterfly kisses ~ bob carlisle (one of the ultimate dad songs)
it's father's day again. like a universal holiday held especially for dads. one day in every year for the dad that does everything for the entire year... like Christ. He too gets just a day, for whatever it's worth. people suddenly feel extra generous and loving to their dads or to their moms (mother's day) just on this day... i myself have been guilty of this. i just wish that dads and moms would be more appreciated the whole year round... sana dati ko pa 'to na-realize. i wish i could have shown my mom just how much of my life she was a part of, just how so much bigger than life she was to me. i will never get the chance to do so anymore and that realization changed me slowly but drastically. so for those with their good folks still left around, please please don't take them for granted. you'd be left with nothing but regret, i'll assure you of that. you would remember every single argument you had, every moment that you shrugged your parent off, every instance na hindi mo sila pinagbigyan when you could have spared a little of your time and effort and that would've meant so much to them. believe me, it gnaws at you. it just does. for years on end.
my dad's really great and i'm so grateful to have him. though i don't get to tell him that, i do my best to show him how important he is to me and how much i prioritize him above all else. i've learned from my mistake and though i am sure nothing will ever be enough, i could probably be content in the thought that at least i tried and that i knew what should be done. hopefully, he'll appreciate it as well and somehow he would be happy. i just want him to be happy and content and know the fact that he is loved. a lot of my friends have lost their fathers already and it's really very painful to lose a parent. i myself lost my mom when i was just sixteen (a time when i needed my mom the most), barely capable to handle the grief. you grow up suddenly and learn a lot of things... and maybe that's part of the legacy they leave you, for you to use on the times they won't be there.
****
anyway, on a lighter note. jr told me about this song last night. ganda ng lyrics, very meaningful pero slightly melancholic. i've heard it ever since before but never really noticed it until now. tenks :) i'll post the lyrics here in case anyone would want a copy of it.
cannonball ~ damien rice
Still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
Still a little hard to say what's going on
Still a little bit of your ghost your witness
Still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed
You step a little closer each day
Still I can't say what's going on
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannonball
Still a little bit of your song in my ear
Still a little bit of your words I long to hear
You step a little closer to me
So close that I can't see what's going on
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannon
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to cry
So come on courage!
Teach me to be shy
'Cause it's not hard to fall
And I don't wanna scare her
It's not hard to fall
And I don't wanna lose
It's not hard to grow
When you know that you just don't know.

sabado nights
on loop: tell me why ~ los lonely boys
it's been some time since i was home on a saturday night. usually, i'd be out anywhere doing anything, for as long as i'm not at home. but i had no choice but to stay in tonight 'coz i've been sick since friday. pangit. tagal ko na ring di nilalagnat, ngayon lang ulit. i'm still slightly sick now, but so much better than yesterday. anyway, sarap pala dumito lang sa bahay. my dad left so i was alone. everything was quiet and the house was all to myself, everything was relaxing :) i should stay home more often, i'll get to save money pa. for a while, i really wanted to go out and catch a movie or something but i was scared that i might get sick again so i opted to stay home, plus la akong money nyahaha. turned out alright naman pala... i got to watch shaolin soccer pa (free movie).
it's father's day tomorrow (in case di nyo alam.. jk ;p) and i didn't really get my dad anything. i remember the time when i was young, when i'd never fail to get my parents gifts for every occasion... christmas, new year, valentine's ,day, birthdays, mother's and father's days, and there would be no fail. also for my friends or even for people i just know, i always make it a point to get them gifts especially for christmas and i also try to get them something i know they'd want or appreciate. i've always been weird that way... i like giving better than receiving (although that's nice too hehe ;p). but i'm more practical now and i've somehow outgrown that stage, i'd much rather show how much a person is appreciated through my actions rather than through gifts or other material what-nots.
it's been a long day (especially since my fever was on and off), and i should rest so i could get started on my schoolwork by tomorrow. good thing i don't have classes on mondays, gives me more time to procrastinate! haha just kidding :) i'll have to get rid of this fever so i could do my stuff and attend a group meeting on monday. we already have a project and report lined up when school's barely started yet. owell. i also have to accompany a friend apply for a job on monday, i hope i could have enough time to work with my group and help my friend out as well. hrmm... well it's late and i've got nothing interesting to say so i should get some sleep and hopefully wake up feeling better :) happy father's day to all the dads and would-be dads out there!

bleh
on loop: no regrets ~ robbie williams
masyado nakong OA. too much melodrama sucks the life out of me and out of other people as well. sorry 'bout that. anyway, miriam's not so bad. it's just bleh-ish since i'm always around girls. i've never been to an exclusive school and right now, it feels like a crash diet gone bad. pero i'm sure masasanay din ako. i'm taking up BS Accounting. wanted to challenge myself and at the same time, give na rin my dad what he wants. sucks to be a freshman again... and i can't help but have mental dull-downs because i'm basically surrounded by 16-year olds. i feel so old nyaha.
i have first year subjects and i slid so far back down the ladder that i can't even see the top anymore. i should have been a senior already but i guess i'm back to step one again. ahahay. at a minimum, i've got 3 years more to go before i graduate. plus another 4 years at law school. time isn't really an element right now but i just hope na 'di na ko ma-burn out. like what happened to me in ateneo. as a fellow ex-atenean liek me said, you may say 'so long ateneo' but remember that 'there is life after ateneo'. thanks, 'twas good to talk with you again :)
ah basta yun na yun. i don't feel so good tonight. bad stomach. got to watch Shutter today. good movie... scary, and has a sensible plot :) i also got to shop for my school stuff already and i'm excited to use my new notebooks! haha so grade 1. anyway, thanks bea for isyaping with me. hope you like your kitty notebook :) and also, advanced happy birthday, lisa! your dinner and sleepover was a blast. may you have a meaningful and fruitful life ahead of you :)
