Early Valentine Concert

To Agot Isidro fans out there… her supposed-to-be Back to Basics Concert on Music Museum this coming December 14 and 15 is moved to February 7 and 8, 2007 for early valentine show.  Same venue.  Guests are Shawn David, The Company and the New Minstrels.

Miss A will render us standard songs and those that she popularized like Sa Isip Ko, Beginning Today and Everyday….

So mark your calendars… February 7 and 8….

And there are news that Zsa Zsa Zaturnnah will have its rerun on January 2007.  It's one great musical play you don't have to miss.

Ano yun?

Sa panaginip ko kanina, alam kong nanaginip lang ako.  Ano?

Ang sabi ko daw…

Ahh.. kakagaling ko lang dito kani-kanina lang tapos andito na ako ulit. 
Pano nangyari yun.

May isang nagsabi na… nasa panaginip ka ngayon.

Napunta ako sa isang lugar na pinuntahan ko lang kagabi.
Ang nangyari parang continuation lang ng kwentuhan.
Present dun ang mga aktuwal kong kausap kagabi sa kaparehong posisyon. 
Suot pa rin namin yung mga damit namin noon.

Sobrang haba ng panaginip ko at naiinip ako.  Tatlo sa nasa harap ko malakas ang tawanan at kwentuhan except sa akin at sa katabi kong babae.

Tinanong ko ang katabi ko:

May sasabihin ka ba sa akin?

Nanatiling nakatingin lang ang babae. Ang haba ng tingin ngunit walang sagot. 
Hindi deadma.  Ang nasasaisip ko nun eh kailangan kong basahin ang nasa laman ng utak niya.
Nagsalita ako pero hindi na patanong

May sasabihin ka nga sa akin.

Imbes na sagutin ako.  Ngumiti lang ang babae at humilig sa kaliwang balikat ko.
Humilig naman ako pakaliwa sa ibabaw ng ulo niya na nasa balikat ko.  Sabay sabing…

O ayan, pinag-connect ko para kung ano man ang iniisip mo malipat sa ulo ko.

Antagal sa ganoong sitwasyon na walang salita… tahimik kaming dalawa at ang mga nasa harap ko ay nakikita kong nagtatawanan sa kwentuhan nila ngunit hindi ko naririnig.  Ang alam ko lang, nung mga panahong iyon, parang magkahiwalay na dimensiyon kami nung katabi kong babae at nung mga nasa harapan ko.

Pagmulat ko… yung babaeng wala na sa tabi ko..
Nagulat akong nakasakay na sa sasakyan niya…  na nasa harapan ko.
Napakunot ang noo ko. 
Nakita kong tumungo.. pinapasakay ako sa sasakyan.
Sumenyas akong pano yung mga kasama namin sa kwentuhan.
Pagtalikod ko upang tingnan ang iba, wala na sila dun.
Tumingin lang siya ng diretso sa akin, sabay yumuko. 
Lumapit ako sa sasakyan, sa window sa driver's seat. 
Tumango ang babae at umalis ang sasakyan.
Hindi ko alam kung ano ang nangyari sa akin.  Kung sumakay ba ako ng sasakyan o naiwan akong nakatayo.  Pero sa panaginip ko… hindi ko na muling nakita ang sarili ko.

At nagulat akong ang scene na pinagtapusan ay isang forest.

Nagising akong bigla at ang tanging naiwan sa utak ko…

May sasabihin ka sa akin.

Ang nagtataka lang ako, isang araw bago ko napanaginipan ito, napanaginipan din ng isa kong kaibigan na kilala rin yung babae… may pagkakahawig ang panaginip at hindi nagsasalita ang babae, at parehong may involve na sasakyan.

Ano yun?

Natatanging Pag-ibig ng APO ni Lola

In the midst of writing my first blog for today, I heard this song.  I stood up and looked for the title… Pag-ibig ng APO.

Hindi mo malimutan kung kailan nagsimulang
Matuto kung papa'nong magmahal….

No'ng tayo'y nagkakilala nang hindi sinasadya
Ikaw lang ang napansin, nahuli sa isang tingin
At sa pagbati mong napakalambing.

Hindi mo malimutan kung kailan nagsimulang
Matutong ikaw lang ang mahalin

Pag-ibig na tunay hanggang langit.

Sakto!  Hindi ko na nga din alam kung kelan at kung paano…
Basta.. nang dahil sa pag-ibig… si Sheggz naging super-duper corny-vorous. Ka-Jologs

Ang tawag daw dito ay MAGIC! Hihihihi

Unanswered Question

 I woke up this morning and smiled when my co-sidekick, Epey, sent me this.  For it has given me answers to the questions that has long been unanswered…

What's the answer? 

… That there are just some questions that you won't find answers to it  

There will come a time in your life when you will become infatuated with a single soul.  For this person, you'd do anything and not think twice about it, but when asked why.. you have no answer.

You'll try your whole life to understand how a single person can affect you as much as they do, but you'll never find out and no matter how badly you hate it or how badly it hurts..

You'll love this person without regret… for the rest of your life…

Up to now, I'm thinking how this one soul made me set aside other plans in my life, began to make plans with him in it and in the process of doing so… be contented with waiting… 

Even the reasons were laid in front of my face to stop waiting… my mind and heart connived to just keep on loving… no regrets at all… i just can't simply throw it away… i want it to stay somewhere that everytime I would want to go back… the best seat for the best memories will always be there.

For the rest of my life…
You're the only person I know could make me smile the sweetest…

Others, termed this as… Finding One True Love
*sigh*sigh*hug tight*sigh*sigh

Kulit ng Morning Co.

Sorry for the urgent decision but please come and join my civil wedding.  Few are invited.  Reception venue @ Plaza Ibarra, Nov. 31 @ 4pm.  I'll be expecting you to come. Ty!

I got the same joke so early in the morning.  So I decided to make fun of it.  I sent this text invite to some of my friends at 5:00am.  Then I slept. 

Besku: Uy best sino nman ang groom?  hikaaaab..  Kawawa naman kasi hanggang 30  lang tayo   he he zzzz
 
Kaye:   Pooh, minsan ka lang ikasal kakaiba pa… Wala naman Nov. 31 eh. Change date mo naman… hehehe

Nans:   Really! Hindi nga… Totoo sis.  Cno?

Agnes:  Hehehe cge pag may 31 na ang November.. Hehe

When I woke up, I got several replies and missed calls.  One of those on the list was that of my mother's mobile no.  So I texted her back.

Puteks!  One of my friends in Cavite went to our house this morning to confirm whether I am really getting married.  So to my Lola got suprised and waited till my  Mader to come to verify the text. 

This is the text I got from my Mader:

Mader:   Wala ka na namang tulog ano.  Tange ka talaga.  Akala ni Ina totoo yun.  Magpapakasal ka na rin lang, ini-schedule mo pa sa date na wala sa kalendaryo.  Tange!

Tawa ako ng tawa when I read this.  I was still in bed (double-deck actually and I was on top, my brother is at the bottom).  My brother kicked my bed so hard that I almost stumble. 

Brother:  Papakasal ka na rin lang, tinext mo pa.  Sana ibinulong mo na lang sa akin or sign language na lang.  Agang-aga mambulabog.  Nakadrugs ka ba, Ate?

Around 9am, I got a text from Kuya Jun…

WHaaaaT?  To whoooom?
Naalimpungatan ako kagigising ko lng! Praning k!

But I laughed so hard when my Big Baby texted this..

Big Baby:   Sa kin ba?  Talaga?

Hahahaha kung ganon nga lang ba kadaling magdesisyon at magbago ng isip para magpakasal eh di sana wala akong problema ngayon… Big Baby talaga…

I was thinking of these texts when I heard Ted Failon mentioned about the super typhoon coming on December 1.  Bagyong Rening!  Napatawa ako ng malakas sa taxi sa sobrang galak….

Puteks…. Rening…. sounds like Renan + Shereen? 
Malakas na Bagyo talaga yan!  Timang na Windang pa….
Kawawa naman ang Pilipinas
Binagyo ng Pagmamahalan Hahahaha Pwede!

The Single Truth on Love

  People have different outlooks in LOVE
But whatever are those…
There's only a single truth behind everyone's heartache:

"Love hurts when we deserve someone else."

                                                                          - Gurly-loo

"Korek!"

When i want to stay put and mess around
and spend the rest of a hundred and one years
crying over spilled milk.
Have a miserable and guarded life…
It's all up to me.

But I can't just simply waste the time…
for the wrong person.

Sayang ang pagmamahal… ganda pa naman

Sooo Cool ;-)

Thanks to Jonathan for giving me the remix of Better Than
You…
That’s the only mp3 in my pc that I never fail to hear from
the moment I sit until I go home.

Rizza, my officemate, once told me…

You’re sooo cool… Nakakainggit ka naman…

Automatic kang may sariling mundo pagsalpak palang ng
headphones.

Para daw akong may sariling
concert stage at dance floor…
I just winked at her… just how I cope up with stress and the
problems of the world… music!

Gosh, after several days of hearing that song…
Hala!  Napapasayaw na
nga ako sa desk ko hehehe

Natutuwa akong masaya ako … sa mga dahilang hindi ko alam
pero masayang-masaya ako.
Salamat sa yo.

Hmmm… Lucky Me

 
It was my best bud Rowel who likes Lucky Pancit Canton (the
Chilimansi Flavor) so much…
He could eat 4 packs in just one sitting.

“Wala kang magiging
problema kung ako ang mapapangasawa mo.
Pancit Canton okay na
okay na!  Hehehe ”

Since I came in, Pancit Canton has been the most popular
breakfast at the office.  Fast and affordable…
Puteks!  I’m beginning to hate the smell
of it.  It triggers my migraine
always. 

I remember just how my friend enjoyed eating it. 

Parang akala mo first time nakakain ng Pancit Canton…
Ano bang bago dyan sa Canton
mo? Hahaha
Kala mo naman… kasarap-sarap nyan.

Now that he’s gone and I’m right here eating Lucky Me… can’t
help but smile and laugh in between bites… Nakakamiss talaga ang gunggong na
yon.  Sa kanya ko namana ung bawat subo
ng pagkain.. basta masarap… may kasunod na …. Hmmmm…. Hmmm.. Sarap!  Hanggang maubos… hehehe…

So Lucky Me in Knowing You, Rowel…

Hmmmm … Hehehe

The Journey of a Happy Soul

As the year closes, I look on the events that transpire that made me appreciate life now.

Meeting new faces * Bridging new friendships * Relationships that have gone sour * Friendships that ended * Fading admirations * Growing faith * Renewed support * Friends that remained * Friends who just died * Trust and Love that is lost… some are regained * Happy faces * Crying moments * Lost times * Months that I have remained idle * Bouncing back * Winning over struggles * New Career * Realization of Dreams * Closer family bonding *

All those emotional turmoil and winning battles and renewed faith… happened in one year..

As I welcome another day, may I find courage to say goodbye to the people who turned their backs and walked out of my life.

May I find refuge in the loving arms of those who still trust and love me.
I will be home with the true friends who remained and loved me unconditionally.
For in your presence, I am depriving myself to be me, free and carefree.

May my smile reminds you of a happy soul
who once dwell in your hearts.  Thank you! 

*grouphug*wink*smile*

A Travelogue

My bestfriend texted me this afternoon to visit a blog site that will surely catch my attention. 
I got to check the Introduction and I saw the picture of the author… good-looking actually.
But I am amazed not with his manner of writing and his professional achievements but moreso, on the idea of putting up a blogsite that tells of his journey in the Philippines and live the Filipino way.  David, a half-Filipino and half-American raised in the States, is up to a very exciting challenge. 

David, it's your compassion and concern that inspire a lot of people…
It's what makes your blog unique… it makes sense…

Continue uplifting the spirits…. David!  Don't be dismayed with your detractors…
Go on and enjoy!
I care not on how intelligently you've written those… because I learn so much with the essence and the experience. 

Hoping you would try to get in touch with Gawad Kalinga and you'll surely be amazed with how Filipinos are trying to help each other in this time of crisis.

Bravo Coconuter! Bravo!
