3rd month of the year

marso, kalugod-lugod ka. di ko naisip noong ika-29 ng pebrero na kinabukasan, magsisimula ang isang buwan ng marami at matinding tuwa, may kaunting lungkot, pero naibsan ng saya. mula sa opisina, sa pamilya, at sa puso. isama na rin ang musika at ang lansangan. salamat po talaga sa Inyo. +

has it been 8 years?

happy Heaven Birthday Lola Inay. happy things happened today but remembering this day of yours has got to be on the top of this list.

then there’s the just before lunch break prc license renewal. by april 30, i won’t be unlicensed anymore.

then there’s the news that i’m starting to drive tomorrow. yesterday morning’s lto trip was also quite a buzzer beater thing.

lunch was great with the special kangkong. and the afternoon even better with the sound of words you want to hear. a follow up to yesterday’s happy happy happy date. lechon kangkong, dolphin, mirror mirror.

then bonchon with the late team + tristan.

end the night out with doughnut delivery.

coming home seeing ate waiting for buds and mama still awake is worth a good smile. papa’s already asleep though. should be ready to drive for him in a few days or weeks.

great day. great past few days. inspiring indeed. thanks. +

epic days and nights part 3

hindi ako nagising nang 6:09. mga 8 na ata nun. 9 dapat, nasa dentista na ako pero nagtext si dra beth na 10 na lang. nakausap ko rin si mhae, sabi niya, extend siya hanggang 12. ayos talaga tumiming ang tadhana. napapadali ang pagsulat ko. medyo naaayon sa gusto ko ring mangyari ang pag-edit ng tadhana.

nagpaalam ako sa nanay ko na pagkagaling sa dentista ay susundo ako. mahigit isang oras din ako sa dentista. 3 months pa bago uli alisin yung top braces kasi medyo sumablay sa tagal na di naayos. sa tawiran sa highway, yung poste ng kuryente, nakabagsak at tila delikado. makakatawid naman nang ligtas. kinunan ko ng picture.

bigotilyo ang playlist ko habang nasa jeep, mrt, at labas ng ministop. pag-uwi, tila mas mahigpit na ang kapit ko sa ngiti. buong hapon ako at umidlip pa sa apartment, kasama sina kuya jho at gen.

dumeretso na ako sa practice sa sip mula doon. late kaya tumakbo na rin sa ulan. may payong naman.

masayang-masaya ang araw na ito. may question mark pa rin pero ang pangarap, susubukang kamtin nang magkasama.

epic days and nights part 1

nasa bahay lang ako nung huwebes ng umaga hanggang hapon. nagbasa ng mga kwento(?) ni rolando b. tolentino at nag-ensayo para sa gig kinagabihan. kinabahan din nang hindi makuha ang p.o.t. cover na panaginip. kinabahan lalo nang malaman ang ibang mga tutugtog na banda. alam ko na bago nun na tutugtog ang sinosikat? pero nun ko lang nalaman ayon sa post sa facebook ng southern project na pati pala ang p.o.t., at hijo.

text text text din at konting relax. gabi, hinatid na ako ni papa sa roaa. nagising din sa mga sandaling iyon si sleeping beauty at napanaginipan daw ako. pinraktis namin ang dalawang orig at yung say hello to heaven.

gig time, medyo binunyag ni kuya jho ang surpresang pagpunta ni mhaelord sa gig. dumating kami nina louie at maaga kaming maisasalang sa stage. ok yun. sinundo ko sina marly at amelia sa caltex/petron. mamaya, dumating na sina kuya jho at mhae. medyo sablay sa cover song, dun sa solo part. maling chord pattern ginawa ko at wala ako sa timing. maganda ang kuha ni marly gamit ang phone ko.

masarap ang pakiramdam ng gig dahil andun ang mga bagong kaibigan, ang sinisinta, para iyon sa isang mahusay na yumaong mang-aawit, suprota kay krys na kapatid, nakatugtog ng originals ng sonic space tinola, at may mga nasundan at kasunod na mga mahuhusay at sikat na banda.

naunang umuwi sina marly at amelia pagkatapos ng set. inantay ko pa si o.b. para iligpit ang percs niya habang pinatago ko muna kay louie si abbey. umuwi na sina kuya jho at mhae at nagpaalam na ako kina kc. hindi na ako nagtagal sa gig.

pumunta ako sa 7eleven sa evangelista-pasay road para uminom at mula doon, tumungo kina mhaelord para antayin siya at ihatid sa ortigas. umalis kami mga pasado 1:30 at dumating sa opisina mga lampas 2:00. masarap matulog sa biyahe.

pagbalik ko sa bahay, naghihingalo ang orasan sa pader, 1:32 tumigil. nakatulog ako katext si kitchie, binabalik ko ang pagbibiro niya sana tungkol kay mhae. medyo tinanghali na ako ng gising. di ko maalala kung anong oras ko napansin na umandar pa pala yung orasan pero hanggang 2:10 na lang ang kinaya ng baterya.

1:32 hanggang 2:10, tumigil, bumagal, at tumigil uli ang oras.

is this the 1st or 2nd revision?

schedule revision. change of plans this week. i spent the day home today. will do the prc and city hall walk on friday or next week. weekend’s outing with g69 also seems to be up for some changes.

well, i’m half done with my room fixing. had a good amount of sleep. put the bed up so it would not happen again in the afternoon.

found out tomorrow’s gig will be just nearby, at b-side. texted a lot of people. hope some would come. and that i won’t screw up in being louie’s navigator tomorrow from roaa.

day at home felt ok. had good laughs with my mother after my not so pleasant arrival at home after midnight.

globe combo 20 also allowed me to do express some emotions with the help of my guitar, gina. tears and joy. i hope to be part of the great happiness one day.

key songs for today: akap by imago, kung ibibigay sayo by nina, with a smile by eraserheads

oh, and tito feds fixed my extension cord. yey.

day 2 of vacation

masaya. may interrogation na agad bago makapunta sa police station pero ayos naman. medyo sablay din pag-uwi. pero ok pa. ok naman. sana maging ok na ok nga.

generally, masaya. may konting luha pero masaya. masaya.

police station, bdo people support, mcdo people support, dccd, kfc m(c)s, bdo m(c)s. tapos tambay. playlist: eraserheads anthology. ang panalo. panalo. salamat po.

practice maya-mayang konti. bukas, prc tapos munisipyo ng makati. sa huwebes, tinola jam and gig. good luck.

first day of long leave today. past two weeks were… heavy? i can’t remember much what happened 2 weeks ago. not much maybe. well, there was tuesday practice and ministop. wednesday, jason’s concert. thursday, super o.t. then met with the bond girls. then despicable me bus movie. win. or was that already friday? ah, so that’s the awesome thing that happened on the 69th day of the year. then i got to attend choir practice that night. oh, and it was mcdonald’s friday talk with ms.anne. saturday was a bit of a break since sunday afternoon and evening was going to be rough. outside work, sunday midday was kinda weird. and then the rough night. danilo was here that sunday until last saturday. we had to finish things for nicolas by tuesday. good thing i still got to go to Mass. and then a phonecall. blank text then phonecall. haha. emotions. feelings.

then monday. last full week before my break, started monday at the office. went home at around 3am and got back by lunch time. around 1pm. next day, tuesday, half past 12 noon, i went home. almost 24 hours at work. yep, i remember not sleeping to finish printing.

then 24 hours of rest. that included choir practice, tuesday night. no ministop but got to walk home with mhae, gen, and april. back to work wednesday afternoon. things are not getting so much better. thursday night had an emotional despedida of sorts. friday, i got an emotional farewell from my mentor, danilo, in the afternoon and a final email (well, 3) to send that night. then pondo ng pinoy seminar.

saturday midday at ministop (eton cyberpod) again then a laugh-filled afternoon. after choir practice, it was strawberries and pancit canton here at home. first night here with SMC. sunday, i got to ministop just on time and the afternoon movie was inspiring. had confession during the Mass and choir practice after felt great.

now monday, got myself a ctc after lunch with my mother and spent the afternoon smiling. a lot. not texting each other when physically together makes sense.

got some sad news through text from my best and quite sad news from arianne during the day. things turn out well, though. on other stuff, ever gotesco grand central was still in flames today. there were memories in that mall. can’t stay sad over the loss, though.

and i’ve been typing for quite half an hour now. i wonder if i can read through these paragraphs again. without getting lazy in the future. maybe i’ll be blogging more consistently these coming days. i might even install windows consumer preview on this pc this week. done downloading a couple of days ago. ack. the whole time i was online, i didn’t even start downloading community. oh well.

this rebuilding of myself seems to be in a good start. with good friends, good sleep, and God with it. thanks. +

15 day shutdown

gabi ng 2012-02-18 noong huli kong ginamit ang desktop na ito ayon sa event viewer. wow, dalawang linggo. tingin ko, sulit naman yung oras na sa ibang bagay ko nailaan. marami-raming nangyari, sa linggong ito pa lang.

lunes, medyo parang yung eksena sa my sassy girl. medyo lang. at mas bilang best friend kaysa ex.

hindi ko rin pinalampas ang araw na hindi naitatanong kahit sa text lang ang isang mahirap-hirap na tanong. martes, operation lipat bahay and house warming.

miyerkules, ika-29 ng pebrero, ako raw ang bahala. ayun, hindi ako nagba-backout at itutuloy ko.

tila mula lunes hanggang miyerkules, nag-out ako nang maaga-aga at bumalik sa opisina para magtrabaho. martes, pinabayaan na akong wag nang bumalik.

march 1 deadline, naabot namin nang march 2. initan ng ulo, iyakan, problema sa miami, pagkapikon sa joke, marami pang iba. buti na lang, todo ang lakas ko noon. simula raw ng pagdurusa pagkatapos ng toast nung hapon sabi ni danilo. pero kaya.

biyernes, umuwi ako nang tanghali, nakaidlip, bumalik sa opisina, sinulatan ang italyanong mentor, nakipag-usap sa boss na ok lang ang lahat, at mukhang natapos naman nang maganda ang linggo sa opisina.

out makalipas ang 6pm, greenbelt kasama nina lyan, anne, gen, kitch, daisy, midz, marly, at barry. masaya kahit hindi ako nakatulog nang maaga para makabawi ng puyat. greenbelt chapel, mcdo, legaspi park. fun fridate.

sabado, nasa ortigas ako nang tanghali. napakain ng masarap na ampalaya at naghugas ng pinagkainan (at pinagtawanan). mukha namang nakapagpasaya. ako rin, masayang hapon. napakasayang hapon. at ibinili ko pag-uwi ang nanay ko ng coffee chillz.

gabi, imbis na mag-practice, music theory. ang sarap. bibo konti. hehe. di lang ganun ka-ok kasi may nagkainitan. bago matulog, nag-propose ako na gumamit ng kuya powers. mukhang magagamit ko ngayong darating na linggo.

kanina, araw ay nagsimula nang hindi pa ako natutulog at tinawagan ni april para biruin at at makapag-usap kami ni mhae. pagkagising ko sa tanghali, andun uli. natagalan lang ang paghihintay dahil sa ot pero ayos lang.

medyo mas maigsi ang oras pero ayos lang. sana nakapagpahinga siyang mabuti. bago umuwi, dumaan ako sa pcx at bumili ng avr na gami ko na ngayon. sana hindi na masira.

bago magtapos ang araw, ang linggo, kanta sa MIsa at konting ensayo pagkatapos. marami ngang nangyayari sa buhay ko na labas sa pagharap ko sa pc. maganda. masarap. mukhang nagbabago na uli ako. masaya. salamat po sa Inyo.
