onga pala

on loop: love song (cure cover) - 311

this morning while eating breakfast, ganito naging dialogue namin ng dad ko:

dad: 21 ka na diba?
me: ha?! ngeh hindi pa no! kayo talaga, pinapatanda niyo ko!
dad: ahh.. (laughter) sorry ha. malapit na rin naman eh di ba? so, anong plano mo? you've got to start thinking of what you want to do.
me: tagal pa po! excited kayo masyado. august pa lang eh...
dad: in denial ka na naman (tawa nanaman). 2 weeks na lang 21 ka na! ok lang yan, you look like you're 20 lang! (lalo pa nagtatatawa)
me: hay nako ewan. kelangan ko na po umalis, late na ko.

anyway, my point is... tanda ko na pala. hahaha. but mind you, i don't feel so old. as a matter of fact, i feel younger than most 18 year-olds (feeling!). but no one can really deny the fact that together with time come changes that are inescapable. most of my peers are already graduating after this school year. i was supposed to graduate with them but i lost track of the bigger picture and nagpadala ako sa mga kalokohan kaya ayun, got sidetracked (understatement of the year).

nalungkot tuloy ako. everyone tells me its allright, and i suppose it is but then again, i have never felt so strongly that i want to turn back time. kahit 1 year lang. but we all know that's not possible. the only thing i could probably gain from this experience is a lesson learned... may not remedy the situation much but hopefully, could avoid more mishaps in the future. hay nako, nagmumuni-muni nanaman ako. ayoko na nga, kung ano-ano naiisip ko eh hehe. basta, i never want to grow old (hahaha). nothing worse than losing one's youthful zest and outlook in life.

speaking of my birthday, i honestly did not realize that it was approaching so soon already. i don't have any plans for it, and come to think of it, i don't think i'd want to celebrate it that much anyway. i've always celebrated all of my past birthdays and i don't think it would make much of a difference if i missed out this year. a little get together of my current friends would be nice but nothing too all-out and prepared for. i vow to spend most of september 3 at home with my dad... haven't done that in a long time :)
