Moments

 Today's Beautiful Moments are Tomorrow's Beautiful Memories

 

I found this one on the net and I remembered my friends who are going through tough times on their marriage.  I've been praying so hard that they will realize each of their own mistakes and will come to realize that there are still good hopes and chances awaiting them.

It's one of my Christmas wish…

Violin

There's one thing I missed in 2007 that I would want to be on the first list of my wishlist for 2008.  Learn to play violin.  I am keeping at pace with this passion. 

I really love hearing and playing good music… this might be my gift to Lolo on his birthday!  Play Violin…

17:28

Making a very good mood starts on hearing a real feel-good music.  I've been doing a lot of stuff lately but this song makes it a lil lighter than ever.  Sarap umulan at makisukob sa payong ni…. secret!!

SUKOB NA 

Tuwing umuulan ay naaalala tayong dalawa
Kay sarap isipin
Na may kasama sa buhay pag bumaha

Chorus:
Sukob na, halika na
Sabay tayo sa payong ko
Hawak na, kapit pa
Sa payong ko magkasama tayo …

Hinding-hindi ka pababayaan
Na mag-isa sa ulan
Aalagaan, magtatawanan
Wala na 'tong iwanan …

Chorus 2:
Sukob na, halika na
Sabay tayo sa payong ko
Hawak ka, kapit pa
Umula't, bumagyo magkasama tayo …

Bridge:
Di ko na inakala pa, na ika'y paparito
Ngunit salamat na lamang
At dumating ka sa buhay ko …
(Repeat chorus 2)

Sa payong ko

Magkasama tayong dalawa …

Buti pa ang Aso

Ang iba takot na takot umuwi ng gabi o madaling-araw.  Ako hindi.  Basta alam kong may pamasahe ako pauwi alam kong makakauwi ako.  Kahit na sakto lang din ang pamasahe ko, alam kong makakauwi ako… kung sakay o lakad… iyon ang tanong.

Neto neto lang, naisipan kong lakarin ulit ang Mendiola pauwi sa amin.  Madaling araw na at wala akong kasama.  May nag-alok naman ng sakay sa pedicab, may bayad nga lang at kung anu-ano pa ang sinabing pangungumbinsi ng drayber, sumakay lang ako.  Tinanggihan ko.  Una, sayang ung barya at sayang ung moment na maglalakad ako at magiisip sa tahimik na lugar.

Ayun!  Nagsimula na akong maglakad.  Habang pakanta-kanta ako, bigla akong nagulat at may kasunod akong payat na asong batik ng brown at puti.  Paglingon ko, nasa kanan ko pala.  At sabay pa kaming nagkatinginan… parang sinabing…. "Okay ka lang… andito ako eh!"

So sabay kaming naglakad.  Mejo mabilis bilis lang ang maliit nyang hakbang at nauuna-una cia ng konti sa akin.  Pero ang natuwa ako, tumitigil cia paminsan-minsan, lilingunin ako sabay iikot-ikot sa tabi ko animo'y talagang hinintay ako.  Eh di… monologue na lang ako.  Hindi naman kasi siya sasagot eh.  At kung sakaling sumagot cia, aba'y mapapakaripas ako ng takbo.  Nalungkot ako ng tumigil cia sa 5th st.  Pero hindi cia umalis.  Nagpaalam naman ako sa Bespren Doggiedog.  "Babay!"  Sabay wag ng tail nya.  Ibig sabihin nun "Message sent!"

Aba, paglingon ko, may dalawang tuta na ang kulit kulit na ang likot likot ng buntot… isang brown at isang puti… hahahaha anak kaya ito nung unang dog?  Tapos iikot ikot din hanggang sa maihatid ako sa pintuan ng dorm. 

Nakakatuwa… buti pa ang aso at tuta…. may malasakit… at take note… libre!

Salamat mga Aww Aww!

The Gift of a Hundred Kids

It feels so strange that I could hardly feel the Christmas spirit.  This is I guess the worst Christmas that I haven't been bothered to wrap gifts which is very unusual to me.

I started buying few gifts for my godchildren but I haven't finished it actually.  I haven't been on 1/4 of it.  Time constraints. I have very limited time to go on shopping unlike before that I still have the time and energy to visit Divisoria, Greenhills, tyangges, midnight sale, night market and the malls.  Before I go to bed, I prayed for this… "Sana mafeel ko naman ang Pasko."

So I woke up this morning with a text from Shem reminding me to go to office early so we could buy candies for the 100 kids who will be visiting the office for their own version of ePLDT Kiddie Christmas Party.  Anyone can bring in their kids, cousins, nieces… basta kids!

I feel the excitement while wrapping the candies and seeing the kids so delighted upon seeing the bags of candies and each of them are coming to go and get one… while saying "Merry Christmas and Thank You!"  I don't know why but the smiles in them bring back all the enthusiasm in me to celebrate Christmas.  I feel like a child again while roaming around to distribute it.  Kids that I hardly know just smile when somebody gives them their presents. 

I really love kids… kids not mine hahahaha  I just simply love them and how sincerely they smile and look at strangers while saying "thank you!"  It's enough for me to say "Thank You for that 100 smiles" I saw this morning.  Sobrang ang saya saya ko…

Haaayyy… Christmas is really for the kids… and their smiles will always remind the adults that there are good reasons to celebrate it… not for the gifts but for the baby born on this day.

Merry Christmas….. 100 kids!   Hopefully next year… i could bring my Baby Pooh here hehehe

Galing! Paglalabanan ko yang time constraints na yan.. budgetary constraints na lang.. hahaha
