Texts again…

I've been trying to keep my cellphone out of my system.  In short, I wanna be detached from friends and my constant textmates…. just this week… I got  a handful of messages that warms my heart…

Texts that made me laugh…..

Just wanna let you know that YOU are my only special friend.   The rest are normal! hehe =)

Minsan sa dami ng problmea gusto kong umiyak at tumakbo

Sa English:  Eat all you can, don't be shy, feel at home.

Sa Tagalog: Kain lang kayo ng kain, walang hiya kayo.. pakiramdam nio bahay nio to.

Touches my heart..

A True Friend scolds like a DAD.  Cares like a MOM.  Teases like a SISTER.   Irritates like a BROTHER and finally, loves you more than a LOVER could give.

A Friend is never a coincidence in your life
They are once a stranger meant to come into your life to bring you priceless lessons
and funny memories.
Thanks for being one of them.
- Jenny of Singles for Christ Silang

No matter how serious life gets..
you will consequently need the company of people
whom you can completely be stupid with.
- Jaycee Paulino

I love being your friend… doing little things to brighten your life
and watching you burst into a warm smile that say..
"thank you for being you."
but what I like most is how you and I become friends.
There are no demands, no using each other, no pretentions, no lie, just letting those wonderful feelings to grow and in return realizing that being friends is a rich and rewarding experience especially when that friend is YOU.
That makes all the difference in the world.  Glad to have you around. (",)
- Alpha of Singles for Christ Amadeo

Give me your worries. I'll be up all night anyway ~ God~
- Pijz of Singles for Christ Indang

I don't wanna be remembered as someone who just made you smile for a while.
But as someone who makes you really happy.
I don't wanna be remembered as someone you can't forget
but as someone worth making memories with.

Persons of excellent character don't easily give up.
They are like the eagles.. They fly alone…
and they soar very high..
Good morning God's eagle!
Enjoy your flight today!

Napabuntung-hininga si Sheggz.. sabay emote…

Every single crowd always has one special  person for you.
Often times you may think there's none.
But care to look around
cause somewhere behind the sea of faces,
someone sees you.
in a very special way…. 
- Besku Rech (DOT)

Life is short, so break the rules…
Forgive like you have amnesia….
Believe like a kid…
Love like crazy..
Laugh till you fart
and never regret anything that made you happy.
- Besku Rech (DOT)

Love can feel like heaven
and could hurt like hell.
It's true that to have the rose
you must accept the thorns and if you have the courage to love
you must have the courage to suffer.
- Besku Rech (DOT)

Ok. Sana makasunod agad kayo… Ingat din lagi!
- Jonathan of Kapisanang Flores

Thank you .. is all I can say….
as a sign of my appreciation for your kindness, sweetness and thoughtfullness..
and for being a good friend to me…
hope nothing will change.. Thank you!

The Power of "We"

I forgot to post a story about the recently concluded event of Gawad Kalinga entitled "The Power of We" held in Mall of Asia.  Several houses are temporarily built for "Open House" hehehe I joined several others, my brothers and sisters in Singles for Christ in Cavite to witness the celebration of modern heroes…. the volunteers, organizers, sponsors, Singles for Christ, Couples for Christ and its ministires and beneficiaries.

No more slums.  No more violence.  No more poverty.

Less for self, more for others, enough for all.

Gawad Kalinga (GK) , translated in English means “to give care,” and it is an alternative solution to the blatant problem of poverty not just in the Philippines but the world. Its approach is integrated, holistic and sustainable – a concrete action plan to rebuild this nation by harnessing the best of the Filipino – our faith and our patriotism.

Taken from the GK website at http://www.gawadkalinga.org

I keep on mentioning that I really salute this endeavor.  Ang galing!

Gawad Kalinga, an offering of love. The name suggests with fidelity the core spirit which drives the vision of rebuilding a nation by simple caring and sharing.

They have this Gawad Kalinga 777, or GK 777 for short, envisions 700,000 homes in 7,000 communities in 7 years. GK 777 was formally launched in October 4, 2003 and on Oct. 4, 2010, is the date of delivery of individual and collective promises to build 700,000 decent and beautiful houses, 7,000 peaceful and productive communities, 7 years from Oct. 4, 2003. 

Gary V and his kids were there… He actively supports Gawad Kalinga eversince along with Ms. Bernadette Sembrano….

Ang galing ng project na ito… sobrang bilib na bilib ako… Dito ko nakita ang vision na pwedeng mangyari… sa pagtutulungan lang talaga ng mga Pilipino… kayang tulungan ang kapwa Pilipino… Natutuwa akong kahit papaano ay naging bahagi ng pagtulong sa Gawad Kalinga sa maliit na paraang kaya ko….

At patuloy akong susuporta sa GK…

Naalala ko ang sinabi ni Tito Tony Meloto, the brain behind the GK, nagpapasalamat daw siya kay Gary Valenciano dahil may ginawa itong isang bagay sa kanya na higit niyang ikinatuwa… at iyon ay ang ipinagdasal siya…..

While visiting the houses…. I was with Jenny Galang…. I saw this tarpauline…

Pulis Kalinga…. ang galing hehehehe

Salute mga Kapulisan!  Go Go Go!

Natatandaan nio pa ba si Lilian?

Kung kelan lang … inihatid namin si Lilian sa airport…. malungkot ang scene na ito….

She regularly sends photos through email…. Just recently, I got an email saying..

   

GRABE!
enjoy ako sa universal studio sa orlando, ang ganda!!!
sulit na yung bayad..more pix on my friendster acct..

 

Ang saya noh… nang-inggit pa ang bruha….  nag-eenjoy na rin si Lilianzki doon…. kakatuwa naman..
Wei, kelan mo naman kami dadalhin jan para mameet ko si Winnie the Pooh?!?

Meet Sam and Ayhen

Another good friend of mine is set to get married this coming November 5.

My Lola told me that a friend came to visit to give a wedding invitation.  I was wondering…

Sino na naman ang papakasal sa mga kaibigan ko?!?

Then, Lola happily shared that I was introduced to the Taiwanese guy as….

"She's my Bestfriend"

The curiosity intensified…. Who the hell is that girl claiming that I am her bestfriend?  Did I miss somebody?

"Ina, sino yun?"

Lola handed me a yellow envelope…. that's the invitation… When I opened it, I saw the pre-nuptial photo of Aireen and the Taiwanese guy….

"Ahhh… si Aireen…. nag-email na siya sa akin na ikakasala nga po siya…"

I enjoyed looking at the photos… It's as if I'm looking at a celebrity's wedding photos eh… Aireen is very beautiful.  We used to stay in one boarding house when we were in college.  One of those who witnessed just how regularly cry everytime I need to go back to Manila and leave home.

I remembered my badingerski landlord's hula…. magaling daw kasi siyang manghula..

I was with Aireen, Raquel, Sheila and Jocelyn…. all pretty-looking young lads… Our landlord said…

"Dalawa sa inyo…. swerte sa lovelife….
Ung natitira mawiwili sa career at hindi gaanong swerte sa lovelife.."

Three months ago… I met Sheila… happily married…. then Aireen, now getting married…. Jocelyn and Raquel daw are still single…

Hmm… katuwa naman… sa dami naman ng grupong pwedeng samahan…. don pa ako nakasama sa tatlong hindi gaanong swerte sa lovelife…. hehehe

Meet Sam and Ayhen… hangkulit ng mga nguso ng mga ito hehehe

Sooo just hang on….

Blog!

Just this morning, in the midst of drafting a proposal for my project, I heard Gary V's Hang On.
Soooo…. I listened carefully to the lyrics and typed it one by one… I smiled that I finished writing the lyrics.

Sometimes it's hard to know that it's all over
Sometimes it hurts so bad
To think that we did feel much for each other
Yet lost what we once had

To love you is one thing I can do
I have always been around to love you

At times when I'm alone I feel so empty
I've always wish you're here
And now you're gone and all is gone forever
Oh boy it's so unfair

Remember the things I always say
I mean them all so please believe
The things that i've been telling you

Just hang on
Who knows we might get there
After all the waiting's done
We'll be the ones to find out

If we hang on
You know we're on our way
So just hang on

When I look at the sky i see a memory
That was where i used to be

I love you
I always think of you
Please listen to the words I say
These words that I've been telling you

If we hang on  

Then I closed the document… it prompted me to save the document… and I clicked "NO"
I said to myself…

What for? Duh!
Hang On … Hang On…
I-hang kita jan eh…. Duh-muhong taong yun…. pinasenti pa umaga ko…

Kulit noh? Hehehe
