Bopols Inc.

Ganda ng araw na to para sa akin.  Hindi ko man natapos ang mga dapat kong tapusin sa trabaho, mas masaya ako sa mga nakausap at nakasama kong tao.  Problema, kainan, kwentuhan, kapihan, o tungkol sa trabaho… sa kabuuan ay nakabuo ako ng isang maganda at kapaki-pakinabang na araw.

Hanggat maaari, hanggat kaya pa ng powers ko, kung kinakailangan kong ishare ang mga kalurkei-yan ko sa buhay at dating trabaho, gagawin ko… para hindi na danasin pa ng mga taong malapit sa akin ang mga hang-ups at falldown dahil sa mga abrupt na desisyon na nagawa ko. 

Naalala ko ang isang kaibigan ko dati.  Sabi ko sa kanya, hanggat kaibigan mo ako… hindi ko hahayaang malugmok ka… kung hindi mo ako pakikinggan, mas gugustuhin ko pang lumayo kesa makita kang patuloy na malulugmok at wala akong nagawang tulong sa yo habang kaibigan mo ako.

Hindi naman talaga likas na malakas ang loob ko.  Ang totoo nyan, may kahinaan din ako.  Pero kinailangan kong magtapang-tapangan para sa sarili ko at para sa ibang tao na maaaring mangailangan ng kokonting tapang meron ako.  Minsan, umaattend ako ng meeting na lakas ng loob lang ang meron ako o minsan mga hirit kong lumulusot lang hehehe. 

Minsan lang kasi ako makausap ng matino… at swerte ka pag natyempuhan mo yun… pag kabilugan ng buwan…

Haaay, napakakulay ng bawat nangyari pero higit itong nagpatingkad sa natuklasan kong… ang mga bopols kong desisyon noon, maaaring may magawang mabuti sa makakasalamuha ko ngayon.  Ansayang isiping ang Bopols, Inc. ko pwedeng maging Corrected By pagdating ng panahon.

Goodluck Sir Chris sa bagong work… nawa’y magkitakits pa rin.  At tuparin mo ang pangako mong "Tuloy ang Dota" saan man naroroon hehehehe…

At kay tukayong Shem… walang Batanguenang sumusuko sa laban ng buhay.  When the problem persists, undayan mo ng balisong… har har har!

Grabe ang problema ko lang na inisip ngayon, hindi ko nabili ung brown na tsinelas na pangterno sa brown kong jumper… tsk tsk tsk!  At ung red bag na Adidas na sale, pagbalik ko … nabili na!  Sa sobrang inis ko, nagkamali ako ng daan pabalik sa office.. naligaw pa ako.. toink!

It’s my Lolo who influenced me to get hold of every memory attached to anything.  The "senti" part of who I am is largely due to my Lolo’s influence.  The other half of "manifested kasentihan", is from my Lola.  Talk about his fave school organ (official newsletter), class card, etc., he still has it.  Simple things that up to now reminds my Lolo of too much attachments. 

I keep track of important messages from important people and kept it at the inbox of my first 3210.  The no. of messages to be stored are so limited that I intend to just write it down with date and time received.  Those messages I valued so much until such time the phone got busted that it has to be formatted until such time time that it has to be given away to my cousin until it was lost. 

It was one frustrating experienced.  But repeated experiences of holding on and lost made me think of not to overly attach myself to anything or to anyone.  And it helps!  Not that I don’t care.  It’s just that I know how to weep for awhile and move on.  Life is not about weeping and weeping… there has to be a wide room allotted for "change".

It’s unloading the baggage… it makes your life lighter!

Handa na ba ako?

Kagabi, bigla akong napaisip ng malalim.  Sobrang kahit ang ingay ng lugar na kinaroroonan ko, nagawa kong makapag-isip.  Ang lalim ng tinakbo ng utak ko na halos malunod-lunod ako.

Nape-pressure ako sa tao, sa mga nangyayari, sa mabilis na pangyayari, sa taong sangkot dito, sa mga bagay na hindi ko kayang gawin hehehehe, at sa nararamdaman ko… hindi naman ako takot sa sasabihin ng tao pero higit akong takot sa papasukin kong sitwasyon na mismong sarili ko hindi "sang-ayon" sa mga planong ito hehehe.  Minsan, gusto kong yayain ng inuman hanggang sa magkalasingan na lang at ng masabi ko ang mga bagay na bumabagabag sa akin.  Kung magkabasagan man ng bote at ng mukha, mas okay na un, at least naging totoo kami sa isa’t isa at hindi ko pagsisisihan ang desisyong gagawin ko.  Mga sagot na di ko dapat sinabi nang hindi ako sigurado para ngayon hindi ako guilty na "napipilitan lang yata talaga ako". 

Hay, gusto ko ng malaking space.  Para pagbalik ko, alam ko na ang sagot ko… 

a Fun way to race for your dream

I am excited at how this coming weekend will transpire coz we’re up for one exciting task.  I’m hopeful that when we go back to Manila there’s something great that would come out.  I’m here at work but my mind is no longer in Makati… it flew all the way to the north hehehe

Oh… that’s how music can greatly affect me… the Poppin’ Pop Out will soon be there.  Sumakay ka na sa pangarap ko… dali!

 "I am back to my world."  

I am eyeing summer 2008 to be one unforgettable summer of all time. 

Beginning February, my Muay Thai lessons will be at the forefront of my "to do’s". 

Second, I’ll go back to piano lessons.  I had two in mind and hopefully, I could finally make up my mind before Feb ends.  I dunno if I could get over with my audition fright hehehe.  Coz I remembered one time that I auditioned for piano and yet the teacher asked me to sing.  I was just like "I’m here to play!  I can’t sing!".  At the back of mind is a roaring anger and "whatta fuck are you talking about blah blah blah".  I had no choice but to sing and after that, I never came back to know the results.  That’s where it all started.

Third, I’ve been thinking seriously whether I’ll go for flag football or I’ll do karate.  I might as well attend trainings for this, either as a lurker or an active member of a team. Whew! 

I am beginning to love Summer 2008!

Tara Takbo!

[Di ko shoes to ha]

I missed the PSE Bull Run "Takbo Para sa Ekonomiya" at the Fort last Sunday due to my sprained ankle.  I thought, flag football would be a great prep-up coz I haven’t been into extensive exercise nowadays, but unfortunately, I couldn’t run.  I was up at 4am and trying to convince myself that I could still run but I just can’t step it.  Was frustrated that I lost my chance of running 10K.  Oh, I am not a pro-runner but I love running, and basically I would just like to know if I could run the 10K.  The farthest I tried was 5K at Philsports.

Well well well… Sad no more!  Coz there are a lot more in store for all runners out there.  Thanks to Lakwatserong Ticsay for the info.  It’s gonna be one fun run while Mayo is taking picture of us.  Hehehehe

Flag Football

Saturday morning, I went straight to UP Diliman to join a friend in playing flag football.  Never played anything like this before.  The sun is up, excited to see us playing on the field.  I came just in time for the "prrrrrrt!  Sheggz"

The game is about to start.  I joined "Ace’s Group!".  Glad that I know how to listen at instructions and my muscles are fit to run fast, that’s all I have.  I missed two chances of grabbing the flag, it was a frustrating experience though that boost my desire to grab it.

Came the opportuned time to grab a yellow flag.  My spirit lifted high! Yahoo! 

Great fun playing outdoors, thanks for the souvenirs, though… a sprained ankle and an injured thumb… ohh.. and the bruises!

Till the next fight! Prrrttt!

Mr. DJ can I make a request?

We were working past midnight when suddenly I received a ym message.  It was actually a link to an online streaming fm radio.  I had my earphone inserted and gotcha!  I heard my name being greeted a couple of times.  Then I thought of greeting my officemates and friends…

On-air the DJ was responding to my chat messages hehehe cool!  Then he told me that I can send in requests.  I dunno what came into my mind that I requested "Points of View" by Joey Albert and Pops Fernandez.  I told him, if it wasn’t available, anything about friendship. 

Literally, I got goosebumps when I heard the intro.  Yeah, I knew that song very very well.  That’s my request.  And I smiled coz that’s the only time I realize that the chorus fits well on us.  The song may not perfectly describe in general how that friendship goes in and out but still it made me smile…

Thanks DJ Efren!  Hoping to hear from you soon!  And to you, this one’s better than "Nobody wanna see us together" hehehehe

What’s the secret?  I learned to listen.  The things I heard need not to be accepted when I feel it’s hardly acceptable and conceivable, I just learned how to listen.  And my heart decides what to filter out and what to save. To mess around with their lives is both a chance and a choice. 

For the Big PoohTotoy Win!

Good morning, dear blog-hoppers! 

It’s been 2 years and 1 month to be exact that I ended up being just a forumer on the threads to actually be meeting personally the people behind the many groups I’ve joined with.  And I tell you, it wasn’t as easy as anyone thought it is.  If first encounters ended up with first smiles and autographs, my life wouldn’t be bugged by people I hardly know of.  But sustaining friendships entail trust, respect of being and privacy.  It’s the same I give to my friends in and out.  And only those who know me very well, realize and give equal importance to what I am giving them.. trust… respect of being and privacy. Given the choice, I would have stayed silent and maintained a complex-free life as I used to be.  Anonymous yet very well respected.

There’s no such thing as preconceived obligation on the forum groups.  No one imposed obligation and loyalty.  Who are they to instruct me of such, I am not being paid for anything nor I demand payment for that so nobody is in the position to impose rules. 

I am just happy with this thought. 

I hardly see them.  I hardly even text them.  I hardly know their likes and dislikes (no sense at all in knowing). Tight schedules and other commitments limit my chances of getting along with them.  They meet other people who equally admire them.  They have shared more bondings than I was able to share.  But despite of it all, they can never forget someone with the name "sheggz".  For whatever reason they have in mind, it’s more than enough.  I need not to do a lot of effort to be recognized, I just have to be me.  And I’m being loved for that.

My life doesn’t end in somebody else’s lifestyles.
It is not my life to always run after them. 
I have a name of my own respected on the basis of how I lived my life and how I treated other people.
Even before I became hooked to meeting them, there’s more to my life that I need to achieve… more than becoming a shadow fan of somebody else.

And my parents basic rule:  "Do not step on anyone for your own advantage."

It’s the rarity and scarity of people who can be true is what I am giving them.  Being good is a struggle.
