The best and the most wonderful thing in this world cannot be seen or even touched... they must be felt with the heart.

Krispy Kreme Doughnut

February 22, 2007

Ate, dumaan d2 c classmate dinalhan ako ng Krispy Kreme Doughnuts.  hehe.  Dumaan p dw cia sa d fort para makabili nito.  Tirhan kta ha, hehe.

Meron pang Peach Mango Pie… malamig nga lang.. di ba paborito mo rin yon?

- Brother ko @ 2:58pm

Naexcite tuloy akong umuwi… dahil sa Donut!  Naconfuse kasi ako kung bakit kailangan pang "Doughnut" eh pede namang Donut lang… Naisip ko… siguro masarap nga yun kasi mag nadagdag na 3-letters…. ang ugh…  hehehehe

Nagkakasundo kasi kaming magkapatid sa Donut.  Pag may pera ako asahan mong may Pasalubong ng Bayan ako at siyempre alam ko ang paborito niya at paborito ko… "Choco Coconut ng Dunkin Donut!"…. pero siyempre meron ding "Pineapple Filled at Strawberry Filled".

Nang lumabas ang Gonuts Donuts… siyempre… mega-text pa rin si Bro sa akin… Pati ung sa Hot Loops…. "Ate, may bago na namang Donut na masarap… tara kain tayo ha?"

Minsan natanong ko si Kaibigang JP kung ano ang masarap na Donut sa Pinas…. sagutin ba naman ako ng "Donut sa Dusit Hotel"… ano un?

Pupunta pa ako ng Dusit makakagat lang Donut?  Haller!!!  Promise niya sa akin na itetreat niya ako dun… pagdating ng panahon na hindi na siguro uso ang donut.

Pero mga bloggers… masarap nga si Krispy Kreme…. talagang mapopronounce mong…. "dough——-nut"…. hehehe  Try it and you'll love it!

Maghahanap pa kami ng kapatid ko ng masarap na masarap na donut… Hanggang sa muling kagat…

Gilligan

Sa gilid gilid ng Starbucks may sikat na meryendahan.. featuring si Manong Squid at si Manong Turon!  Yahu!

Kala mo may kung anong piket ang namumuo tuwing sasapit ang 3:00 ng hapon.

Pano ba naman, iba’t ibang sektor ng lipunan ang nagkukulumpungan sa ilalim ng punong kahoy… may nakakurbata, may naka-amerikana, may nakaslacks at ok ang porma..

Tapos ang lalaki ng Squidballs…

At may variety ang merienda ni Manong Turon… may turon, chicharon, pancit canton, chichirya, lumpiang ubod, at marami pang iba…

Ang saya ng merienda bonding namin.  Pano pinagkakatuwaan ako ng mga officemates kong lalaki dahil talo ko pa sila sa pagkain ng malalaking squidballs…  Sila ang kasa-kasama ko at ako lang ang tanging babae na mas malakas pang kumain sa kanila.

Naalala ko pa si Gary ng minsang magtreat sa akin…. "Sheggz, kumakain ka ba sa ganito?"

Sabi ko… "Oo naman!  Ano namang akala mo sa akin… hindi anak ng fishballs?"

Nahihiya na nga ako kapag magbabayad ako…  Minsan, sinesenyas ko na lang at ibinubulong… tapos hayuf naman si Manong at ilalakas pa…

“Manong, 18 squidballs…hehehe”  tapos pagtalikod ko kakain pa ako ng turon.

Ewan ko ba… enjoy na enjoy ako sa mga ganitong kainan.. yun bang busog ka na … mura pa tapos kesehodang nakikita ako ng madlang pipol sa pagsubo ko ng squidballs.. sabay sabing….. "Hmmm…. ang sarap grabe!"… pawisan pa pagkatapos.. sarap kasi ng tamis-anghang!

Tara!  Sarap don!

Love that’s true

February 21, 2007

 The problem with Sheggz… she's so afraid to admit to herself that somehow she's falling for someone.  Rather than to take risks, she'd rather hide, deny or escape from it.  She knows very well that when she's in love, her world turns upside down and she's worried that her studies (before), her plans and her career might suffer.

Don't be afraid to receive LOVE more than you can return…

be afraid that you can't give back the love

although you really can..

Love needs not to be equal or fair…

it only needs to be "TRUE".

But what if… the love is so strong that it just cannot resist hiding and escaping… and even denying?

What would Sheggz has to do?

What if the guy is just fooling around… what if he's committed?

Enjoy while he's there with you?

Tanda ko nang ito… hindi ko pa rin alam ang PAG-IBIG.. whehehehe

Kalurkay!

Si Superman

Blooming ka… In-love ka ba? - officemate

Uy mukhang masaya ka ah.  Sino ba siya? - Mader

Ate, may date ka? - Brother

"Mommy, nakita mo na nga ba si Daddy?"

Pero higit akong natawa nang minsang ang Lolo ko naman ang magtanong ng…

Ineng, nakita mo na ba si Superman? 
Wag kang mahihiyang ipakilala sa amin ha? 

Sa tuwing itatanong kasi sa akin kung kailan ako mag-aasawa, ang lagi kong isinasagot ay..

Bukas na po… gabi na…

Hindi ako mag-aasawa noh. 

Hindi po ipinapanganak ang taong yun.

At kay Lolo… Ama, hindi ko pa natatagpuan ang Superman!

Pero kahit ako natatawa sa mga nangyayari sa sarili ko lately.. Hindi ko din alam kung bakit masaya ako … hindi ko alam kung bakit parang lagi kong inaabangan ang araw ng Sabado… Hindi ko rin alam kung bakit may isang tao akong iniisip ngayon na hindi ko naman iniisip dati.   Hindi ko rin alam kung bakit parang ang gaan-gaan ng pakiramdam ko sa kabila ng napakabigat na trabaho… Hindi ko rin alam kung bakit nag-eenjoy akong kumanta ng lovesongs… Hehehehe

Hindi ko talaga alam ang sagot… siyempre alam ko kung ano ang nasa likod ng mga matatamis na ngiti at once-in-a-blue-moon na pagsulpot ng dimples…  Hindi ko pa lubos na maamin sa sarili ko siguro…

Ewan ko rin nga ba… pero sana… this time.. pagbigyan naman ako ni Lord… mabait naman ako… pasaway nga lang…

Wala lang… *blush*wink*wink*blush*

Gusto ko na nga sanang itanong …. "Am I ready to take chances with you, Superman?!"

Superman, kaya mo ba ang powers ni Timang?

 

Post ko lang picture ni officemate… walang malisya… hehehe

Pero ung dimples lumabas…. hihihihihi

Out!

Just recently, I read an article about Yeng Constantino… stating… the public perceived that she is a tomboy.  I cannot fully state how she answered but I am very glad how she delivered it…

"Wala naman pong problema kung sa tingin nila ay tomboy ako.  Pero sa hindi po ako talaga ganun eh."

Then, I got a June 2006 issue of Reader's Digest where it featured Carrie Underwood… my all-time favorite American Idol.  In one of the Q&A, I found this….

RD: What was your childhood like?
Underwood: I definitely was a tomboy. I climbed trees, and I'd jump hay bales and play with the cows, and Dad would take me fishing. I have two older sisters, and my parents — my mom was a teacher, and my dad had a job in a paper mill — worked hard to give us everything that we needed. We were raised in church. It was your typical all-American family.

Full article here.

The gender issue has also been questioned to Gretchen Malalad, Nene Tamayo and Panky Trinidad… and it so happened… that these three names are my favorites….

Just the same, my gender preference had long been put in question by some people who hardly know me… that put me in identity crisis since highschool.  Judged at how I dress (and not comfortable wearing long dress), uncommitted, so comfortable with being single, so easy-go-lucky, tough-looking, tigger-looking always and all other reasons that relate to being perceived as "tomboy".

And in the long run, I discovered that yearning to be with girls is a result of yearning for "Big Sisters and Lil Sisters" who I never got the chance to have…

The only girl in the family… with my only bro and two male cousins…

Hay naku!  I know myself better than anyone else.  At some point I have questioned myself, too and undergo psychological help just to assess whether or not I am a "lesbian, a bisexual, or straight".  This is due to the fact that several "lesbians and/or bisexuals" are showing interests and actually courting me.  And I always tell them, I may look so boyish at how I walk but I am straight.  I tried watching videos of two "bis" and even "lesbians" and I just couldn't take it.  I oftenly turned it off because I can't stay longer watching them… 

Whether I am a straight or not… it doesn't really matter.  What I always would want to tell my friends is to be honest with themselves, go out of the closet and live comfortably with what it takes to be a lesbian, a bi or straight.

I know some friends, even close friends, who up to now cannot reveal themselves… well oh well… you are fooling yourselves… do not be afraid of what other people might tell you or how wrongly you'll be judged… who the hell are they anyway?

Nothing wrong with being bisexuals… and being lesbians… as long as you don't harm anybody for being such…

Even at a very young age, I was more comfortable doing what lil boys do… running, racing, climbing up on trees, playing with robots and legos, computer games, boxing, cars, bike, and all  that.  It's just that I feel it's a lot more adventurous and challenging doing those things…

Though… I also like playing barbie doll and making the paper cut-outs of dresses…

If the society's perception of being a tomboy is on how courageously you can handle yourself very very well without having to depend on others and doing excellently what they think are just for boys… then I consider myself one…

Independent… Strategic… Timang…. Resourceful…

It's Me eh… Ano'ng magagawa nio?

Stay tough and bubbly ;-)

Friends

February 20, 2007

Value persons while you still have them.

Because you'll never know until when they will stay in your life.

You may get tired of having them.

But at least be thankful …

they never get tired of having you.

I get tired of people.  I dunno why.  And I always feel guilty at times when I cannot be the same "sheggz" everyone knows … always available… always there to reply.

Even my closest friends got noticed of this "very unusual shift".  I cannot just simply explain the unexplainable.  It may be attributed to the constant and daily pressures I got from work… that the only possible way to regain my strength for the coming days is just to sit back and keep quiet.

I do miss my Besku… my Rodz and Mhy… my Iset… my Ronz… my Luvie and Sansu… my Anje, my Matto, Evy, Maan, Jacqui…. and the rest of my constant buddies.

I do miss them A LOT…

I just hope… they won't get tired of Sheggz.

I know… real friends will understand… no need to explain… ;-)

Hello Sunshine!

February 19, 2007

 

I saw one beautiful sunrise a few weeks ago.  Sooo beautiful that it made me appreciate the beauty of nature more than I could possibly imagine…

I went back and forth to get a good view of how the sun smiles at the world and how the moon on the opposite side bids farewell to the sun.

Rowell keeps on telling me… "The Sun always Shines!  Even on the other side the moon bids goodbye".

The moment I saw the two in one perfect site… I remembered Rowell…. and how he cast his jokes…

Antanga mo naman Sheggz… Hindi mo alam na opposite directions yan… sabay lumulubog ang buwan at sumisikat ang araw….  Ung isa "Bulaga" yung isa naman "Babu"

But seeing it brought me more than just the sunrise and the sunset….

Rowell keeps on reminding me not to make life short because life is soo beautiful to just leave at that… unnoticed.

Rowell, antanga mo din.  Ako nakikita ko pa ito… eh ikaw… Lapit na ng death anniversary mo…. Isang taon na pala yun!  Ungas ka!

Oh my God

  

I dunno what I fear most about dancing but in my younger years, I used to be part of the dance troupe at school…

Even if I'm out of tune… I'd rather sing than dance.  I dance only when I'm in front of the mirror and the door is tightly closed.  The only one who could see me at my weirdest moves… is MYSELF.  Sometimes, my Lolo… hehehe

Whatta curse!

I need to learn how to dance…. "Waters of March" by Agot Isidro in a couple of weeks… yes!  The so-feminine-moves of Bossa Nova background… Shaggidy Shaggidy Shapopo talaga.

Oh my God… sa tigas ng katawan ko tapos I will dance like that…

Pinagpapawisan ako habang iniisip ito at halos hindi ako makatulog sa kaba.  Hehehehe  At times like this… gusto ko sana lalaki na lang ako… Hahahahahaha

I'll be paired with somebody who is good-looking… tapos syu-syunga-syunga ang pareho kong kaliwang paa… 

I asked my friend, Mojack, to show me "only the basic steps"… muntik na akong magcollapse…

Ang arte puteks! Hindi ko carry maging sooooooooooo pa-girl…  with matching papitik-pitik ng kamay and mega-emote… oh my God talaga!

Sana hindi ako magkanervous breakdown…

Wish me luck and miracle!

Fort Santiago

Just recently, a friend asked me… "Nakapunta ka na ba sa Fort Santiago, Sheggz?"

Cause once I asked her where Fort Santiago is…

I remembered, I went there with my Besku… but I am not quite sure if that's really Fort Santiago. Cause I just reached the entrance.

I still would want to go there… but I dunno why.  I dunno what's in it that I want to see..

  

Then I saw Yami's pictures… she went to Fort Santiago pala…

Punta nga tayo minsan….

What Feechors mean ;-)

I was browsing some of my friends' pictures in Friendster, when I saw these…

At the time I was in high school, I remembered calling the lady in white, as Miss Luvie. I can't remember what year she was assigned to handle…. she's our guidance counselor.

I get used to getting close with the counselors because at some point, I considered myself "a problem child though not really obvious"…. hehehe 

Most of my closest friends in high school are the counselors… Mdme Rodil, Miss Cantoria and Miss Luvie.  But Luvie and I became really good friends.  I told her once…

Alam mo… nung una kitang makita… andaming panlalait ang ginawa ko sa yo… hehehe

Dios ko… para kang Maria Clara sa suot mong purple dress…  pero in fairness… ikaw lang maganda sa IJA before….

and she will always answer…

Siyempre.. maganda ako eh.  At least hindi ako baduy! 

Hindi nga halatang madaldal ka…. I said to her..

Hahahahahaha

My God… we've been friends for more than a decade now.. but we haven't got any pictures together…. and this is the only time I realized that.  I've been asking about her wedding picture but until now I haven't got any.

When others thought that she is shy and timid… I stare closely at her and see no signs of that.  The one who's really "ratatat" and "walang space" when sharing her kwentos… about her… LABS.. hehehe…. the tantrums….

I could still remember our "goto" moments in Harrizon Plaza at the time she was doing her thesis at PNU.  Who in the world will recognize that "I am just one of her students" before… and look at how far the friendship goes….

And who can forget the time na nagdrama ako….

I rushed to her house one afternoon… and confronted her….

Sheggz:  Ang limit nating magkwentuhan… hindi mo man lang sinabi sa akin na ikakasal ka na?

Luvie:  Ha?  Kelan?  Kanino?  Kay Pards?

Sheggz:  Oo.. narinig ko sa PNB.  (at that time I was an OJT in PNB Silang)  Mamamanhikan na raw sina Pards dito… hindi mo alam?

Luvie: Hahahahaha ay hindi ko alam.. Buti ka pa alam mo….

The rest is history.  But I'm always grateful that I have one "great counselor" in her… a friend, indeed!

Sa kanya ko nga una ipinakilala si…. remember?

I missed seeing my friend Luvie…..  Magpapicture nga tayo! Kainis ka!

PaKtext ka na…. before it's too late.. hehehehe

Type : SHEGGZ ON and send to me…. hehehehe
