agony
and i thought i'd feel better
after the previous post i had, i thought things were turning out fine. after clearing things up i thought i knew everything. but still i am blind. to make matters worse, i just realized i lost the battle. no fight needed. one way or the other, i'd loose. i lost.
thinking about it, i ask myself. how did it come to this? i made myself think that i was going to be happy. i thought the things i did were making me happy. but no.
now i can't even express how i feel. i don't even know what i feel. how to feel.
just wait. maybe there's more. love perhaps? sadness. i'm waiting. i'll see.

Walls have ears...
I feel like crying for the nth time this week. Why does it have to be this way when I thought things were actually pretty fine already. Just when I thought I made the right decision and that God showed me the light. Or whatever it was. I felt free. But only for a moment. God does know how to keep these trials going. And destiny sure has it's way of playing tricks on me.

I thought letting go was the best thing too do. Emancipation. Freedom. Liberty. Whatever you might call it. I was spreading my wings. But all too soon I realized that I was only trapped inside my bubble. Yes, I was trapped. The space around me made me feel like I was able to do what I wanted and be who I wanted to be. But then it was all in my mind. Because I wanted it, I had it. But when I saw things through, they weren't what they seemed to be. I was blinded by my own sense of false happiness. Happiness which at first felt so genuine and lasting. But I made a fool out of myself.
Walls have ears.
Whether it was my friend's way of warning me, or it was just some lapse of judgment, I was warned. I have yet to know the truth. But I do not want to know the truth. I have been hurt enough to know that the truth might hurt so much more. Loving shouldn't be this bad. But when you get to trace the same loop over again, you get too familiar and know that it is a labyrinth, you've been there, you knew how it felt, it's hard to escape. You feel the excitement trying to find out what's next yet you know you'll never know when you will ever find your way out. It's temporary nirvana. But all eyes are on you, ready to cast their judgment.
I am a fighter. But I guess this time, this is not worth fighting for.

I guess so
I read a letter and made a reply. However, before sending my reply, I noticed one line that struck me. "Guess you wouldn't know". She was right, I wouldn't know......
Last night, I was on the point of writing a new entry here but then I managed not to because of some pointless chat I had.
You see, on my way home, I had some things in mind. I was asking for how long will I be keeping myself single. Will I go a-hunting or a-waiting? Then I realized, if I did go searching, who or WHAT will I search for. And if I do wait, how will I know he's the right one?
And I checked my list. And I realized, there are a lot of loopholes.
I always thought I wanted a short guy. Because I didn't want to look up when talking to him. But then wouldn't it be nice when he embraces you he would look down on you and tell you how much he loves you? You would then look up and tell him the same thing and then disappear in his embrace. Well, an inch or two difference would be fine. Still no to tall guys. They scare me. haha
And I thought I wanted a guy who's intelligent. But hey, I once settled for someone who wasn't, well, that, intelligent (no offense if you get to read this!). But then, I get so annoyed if I get if I lose a conversation. And I just don't lose A conversation, I lose in all conversations! I get annoyed when I know he knows better. I am not proven wrong but I am left helpless! What the! I still want an intelligent guy though. I will just try and practice accepting defeat. ngehk. weird :)
And I wanted a guy who's got that scruffy and dirty look. Because I like it tough. haha But lately I realized that a cleaner-than-scruffy-yet-not-so-clean look would be really nice. I mean, my parents would love that. haha
I want a dark guy. Because that means I wouldn't have to be so conscious as to how I would look beside him. But then a fair-toned guy would encourage me to take care of my skin, diba (ngehks, haiden kho, ishdatchoo i'm referring to?)..
Lately I have been thinking that it is time to move on. Char. but I have moved on. But there are times that you feel alone and you want to be in the comfort of somebody else's arms (jatira). And I have been thinking.
Will I be like this for long? Somebody has been asking me what is my type of guy. And then I say I don't know. I have my checklist yet I don't think the items would suit me just right. What if Mr. Right Guy comes along yet he doesn't score a 100% based on my list? I may have made a wrong list or maybe, I just didn't listen to myself well.
I miss the feeling. Rather, right now, I can't even say if I had the felt the feeling of being in love before. I want to know what it's like again. Now na.
so maybe, "Guess you wouldn't know".. because it would be different every time. totally different. for now, I just want to know how it is to be loved again. in a relationship that i can proudly brag about. in a relationship where there is me, and him, and my family and friends. when it's not only us but you as well (dli pud sharing2x..).
When it's US and the rest of you being happy for us.
ambot oi kung nasabtan ba ko, pero mao na akong na think gahapon ug karon.

And so there were issues
I don't want to intrude relationships. There may be times I almost crossed the line, but mind you, I never did. Not once in my life do I remember I stepped out of my limits. I know my limits. I know myself.
Yes, and I know myself more than you do. I might act as if I am in the constant search for who I really am, but hello, I do know a great bulk of me. I know how to respect. I know when to react. I know which things matter and which don't.
Lets start off with the rumors.
Rumors are plain rumors. I don't want other people to go judging me. I never judged others. I may say things about them, but I do not judge them for who they are. The best thing for us to do is to understand and accept them. If we see that there's something wrong, help correct the mistake. Don't let these rumors fool you. You might be hurt, but did you ever try to see the other side?
I was part of this baseless nonsense that spread out as rumor. Did anyone ever ask me my side of the story? NO. No one did. They didn't have the guts to tell me. Or maybe, they believed what they heard. They judged me according to what they saw. No solid proof. Just that. And my reputation went from mediocre to negative infinity. And what's so weird about this? I never had an idea that it was there all along. I never thought. Who would have imagined such thing anyway.
Clarifications.
So this issue found it's way to me. At least I was able to face it decently. It was like an exam on a topic which I have never heard of, yet I was assured that I was going to pass. Thanks to friends who care. And thanks to friends who don't. And then I thought everything was alright because it seemed like it was. I talked to the person involved. Said I was sorry (even though now I think I shouldn't have said that since I did nothing wrong). Settled. Closed.
Wrong.

Last night, something weird happened. And I just can't take the alibi. I say ALIBI because I do not know the real truth. I do not talk to a lot of people because I don't know whom to trust. But I did talk to one. And I don't know. I felt like crying even though there was no point to it. I just simply hate the fact that somebody out there thinks that I have been doing something wrong when in fact I wasn't. I shouldn't be bothering myself with these stuff but I can't help it.
I have problems of my own. Matters of the heart of my own. Don't make your condition an excuse to brash. You are making it your shield. Your excuse. Because you couldn't have done it otherwise.
Be brave enough and tell me how you feel. Be brave enough to face the truth. I have done nothing wrong, and I will do nothing wrong. Forgive me for making an issue out of it. I snapped it off in the beginning but I am starting to hear things that concern me. It is just not right. It is just not good.
Tendency is, I will not try to prove you wrong, because I know the truth. He knows the thruth, my friends know the truth. I don't care about your friends or how they think of me.
I trusted your words but then they contradict your actions. I thought it was fine and that it was done, but then I think it has just begun.
So I will annoy you. Yes I will because you have annoyed me enough. I am not afraid.
But if you don't want me to, just say PLEASE. And oh, don't forget the SORRY.

El Bimbo
Huling El Bimbo from Smart Buddy on Vimeo.
So so so, i posted this lang :D
i wanted to upload it because I downloaded the flash video files but then hinay kaau ang internet, so embed na lang ang wosh..
so why man?
magbuot?
Anyways, I watched the GMA special last night, wala ko nakuntento.. And as delinquent as I am, I searched for copies over the net. I already have a *ehem*illegal*ehem* copy of the concert prior to this, so i looked for a copy of the Final Set. Buti nga wala, dli madungagan akong mga sala. :D bitaw oi, but I found the vids posted by Smart Buddy from their site, then I noticed, from Vimeo na man diay ko gatan-aw, so hala, download ang wosh!
Why El Bimbo? Well, back in grade school, there was something about the El Bimbo song. basta! kapoia explain oi, yaw yaw ang show nasab nako, mura rabag naay mamasa dah... haha pasagdi :D Karemember lang ko my uncle said that ang babae daw kai burikat, then na turn off ko sa song (i was in grade 3 when he said that!).. tapos ana ko d na nko love ang eraserheads (malibog man sab ko saona sa rivermaya ug sa eraserheads..) pero love man ni kuan ang eraserheards, labi na ang huling el bimbo, hala, cge na lang :))
Nung tayo ay bata pa
At ang galing galing mong sumayaw
Mapa boogie man o cha cha
Ngunit ang paborito
Ay ang pagsayaw mo ng El Bimbo
Nakakaindak, nakakaaliw
Nakakatindig balahibo
Pagkaggaling sa eskwela
Ay dideretso na sa inyo
At buong maghapon ay tinuturuan mo ako
Magkahawak ang ating kamay
At walang kamalaymalay
Na tinuruan mo ang puso ko
Na umibig ng tunay
Naninigas ang aking katawan
Kapag umikot na ang plaka
Patay sa kembot ng beywang mo
At pungay ng yong mga mata
Lumiliwanag ang buhay
Habang tayo'y magkaakbay
At dahang dahang dumudulas
Ang kamay ko sa makinis mong braso
Sana noon pa man ay sinabi na sa iyo
At kahit hindi na uso ay ito lang ang alam ko
Magkahawak ang ating kamay
At walang kamalaymalay
Na tinuruan mo ang puso ko
Na umibig ng tunay
At lumipas ang maraming taon
Hindi na tayo nagkita
Balita ko'y may anak ka na
Ngunit walang asawa
Tagahugas ka raw ng pinggan sa may Ermita
At isang gabi'y nasagasaan sa isang madilim na eskenita
Lahat ng pangarap ko'y bigla lang natunaw
Sa panaginip na lang pala kita maisasayaw
Magkahawak ang ating kamay
At walang kamalaymalay
Na tinuruan mo ang puso ko
Na umibig ng tunay
(2x)
The movie queen of the 40's. She was first seen in the movie Flores de Mayo. She gained recognition when she was paired opposite Fernando Poe in the movie Ang Halimaw in 1941.(* wiki)Would you want to look like her? Be the best El Bimbo dancer? (pero wa ko kabalo unsaon na xa ug sayaw. research didn't help) Pero maligsan ra ka tapos mamatay. Unsaon ka na lang!
But this is a song man about unrequited love, diba?
hay nkow..
karelate? bwahah
"Sa panaginip na lang pala kita maisasayaw"

The Pope, Barack Obama and Gloria Macapagal Arroyo
were in a boat on Taal Lake one day when it sprang a leak.
There was only one life-jacket in the boat.
"I guess, I'll have to take it," said Obama, with an eloquence not
normally associated with him. "After all, I'm the leader of the
free world."
"Not so," said the Pope. "As head of the spiritual world, I ought
to have the life jacket"
"I disagree," said Arroyo. "You are in a Philippine territory,
therefore the life-jacket belongs to me."
They continued arguing as the water rose up above their feet,
their ankles and their knees.
As the water was coming up to their stomachs, they decided that
the only fair way to settle the matter was to hold a democratic
ballot.
Arroyo won, 12 votes to 2.

The Most Touching Divorce Letter
Dear Wife:
I’m writing you this letter to tell you
that I’m leaving you forever. I’ve been a good man to you
for seven years andI have nothing to show for it.These last two weeks have been hell.
Your boss called to tell me that you
quit your job today and that was the
last straw.
Last week, you came home and didn’t
even notice that I had a new haircut, had
cooked your favorite meal and even wore
a brand new pair of silk boxers. You
ate in two minutes, and went straight to
sleep after watching all of your soaps.
You don’t tell me you love me anymore;
you don’t want sex or anything that
connects us as husband and wife.
Either you’re cheating on me or you
don’t love me anymore; whatever the
case, I’m gone.
Your EX-Husband
P.S. Don’t try to find me. Your SISTER
and I are moving away to West Virginia together!Have a great life!
——————————————————————————–
Dear Ex-Husband:
Nothing has made my day more than
receiving your letter. It’s true that you and Ihave been married for seven years,although a good man is
a far cry from what you’ve been.
I watch my soaps so much because they
drown out your constant whining and
griping. Too bad that doesn’t work.
I DID notice when you got a hair cut
last week, but the first thing that
came to mind was ‘You look just like a
girl!’
Since my mother raised me not to say
anything if you can’t say something
nice, I didn’t comment.
And when you cooked my favorite meal,
you must have gotten me confused with
MY SISTER, because I stopped eating pork
seven years ago.
About those new silk boxers: I turned
away from you because the
$49.99 price tag was still on them, and
I prayed that it was a
coincidence that my sister had just
borrowed fifty dollars from me
that morning.
After all of this, I still loved you
and felt that we could work it out. So
when I hit the lotto for ten million
dollars, I quit my job and bought us
two tickets to Jamaica . But when I got home
you were gone. Everything happens for a
reason, I guess.
I hope you have the fulfilling life you
always wanted. My lawyer said that the
letter you wrote ensures you won’t get
a dime from me. So take care.
Signed,
Your Ex-Wife, Rich As Hell and Free!
P.S. I don’t know if I ever told you
this, but my sister Carla
was born Carl. I hope that’s not a
problem.

A stupid confession from a procrastinator
It has been two years since I graduated from college.
I have had two employers already.
First job: 3 months (intern 6 months prior)
Second job: almost 9 months
so?
SO...
I am supposed to be an SSS member already. Correct? SUPPOSEDLY
Taxpayer? Well, definitely YES. They have been deducting my salary.. I remember they gave me a form that was already filled up, but then I can't remember what that was for. They just actually showed how much I was paying the government. Really, I SWEAR, at that time, I DIDN'T BELIEVE IT. Sorry-
Anyways, here's the story of my uneventful employed life that was.
Let's start from the very beginning (a very good place to start....)
When I filed for graduation in college, I found out that the wrong spelling in my first name (the infamous letter "E", na ang siyang ugat ng aking kamalasan). It was 2006. Anyway to cut the long story short, and to spare you from all the frustrations that I felt that time, I was finally able to graduate (my diploma actually said that it was "Mavilene S. G. Bas" or something like that that graduated. They actually murdered my name (which is a different issue that I have to attend to once I end this lagim).
Anyway, the thing is that I processed everything. I am proud to say that I did everything on my own. As in, ON MY OWN! wooohoooo! Of course, with help from some people, namely, Atty. Nollora (the dad, not the son, hahah!), and the typist guy in front of USC main (and he still says hi to me everytime he sees me walking sa kilid kilid, feeling close kau si manong.. :p). My parents were too busy to help me that time. No fixing or anything of that sort. BUT, BUT, and BUT! I'm pretty sure that I accomplished everything.. except for the last part. I have always been wondering, why, it has been two years since, but I haven't claimed my corrected birth certificate. I always wonder why. Was it because, because, or because? Why?
And then I attempted many times. And the main office was closed. Asa na diay ang NSO? BTW, I can't "order" my birth certificate online, through e-census because of the correction thingy. I found out it was in TALISAY CITY HALL na! Yooohooords! Malakaw ra sa amua! But duha ka tuig na ang nilabay, NALAKAW BA NAKO? Ang tubag- nag ningning nga WALA. Ug nganu man tawn oi. Pisting giatay nga manok. Ana na jud ko katapulan?
Good thing, when I enrolled again sa USC, they didn't ask for any chuva chuva because they have my records na man, so oks ra ang show.
In my first job... NVM!!!
Sa akong next na job, well, they gave me this list of requirements on my first day. They said that I needed to pass it, or else, I wouldn't be fully employed. That was because I had a one week training. UG KAY NAILAD KO. UG NAGTINAPOLAN SAB KO. Hangtud sa niresign ko, NAKASUBMIT BA KO UG ANYTHING? WALA!
SSS? -- eks eks eks!
TIN? -- xxx
Medicare chuva galore ek ek? -- xxx
PhilHealth? -- taman ra tawn ko sa form
I KNOW
I KNOW
Sala nko kai tapolan ra kau ang yours truly
pero HOW COME and HOW COME, naa man koy deductions? Asa man tawn to nilagpot. Ana sila ma credit ra daw na inig apply na jud nako. ATAAAAIIIII.. wa pa man jpon ko kaapply oi.. ahak bya ani-
BTW-- extrajudicial confession ni? AYAW TAWN KO PRISOHA.. haha
So ana ko, SUNOD NA LANG NA OI KUNG WA NAY EXAMS..
pag homan sa exam, SUNOD NA LANG NA OI KUNG WA NAI KLASE
pag wa nai klase, SUNOD NA NA OI IG TING KLASE KA WA KOY KWARTA!
dah! GABA KA INDAY MONETTE, unsa na ni karon.. hahah
nganu bitaw!
pero buotan man unta kaau kong nag dula ug CAKE MANIA dinhi, NGANUNG NAMROBLEMA MAN KO?
Tenenenenenne!!! Manabi ko!! :D haha
Nadawat na nako ang email kung saan nakalagay ang panuto (instructions, mao ba?) kung papano ako makakagawa ng online account sa isang unibersidad kung saan ako ay employed pansamantala. Ambot oi mao ba na. Basta, naa project somethingy. And ang akong bayad chuva galore is through bank to bank chuva ek ek.
Anyways, BANK TO BANK chuva ek ek?
May gas lamegas!
Karon na, wala man koy personal bank account.. hihihi nakikigamit na lang sa iba.. bwahaha
naa man to saona pero wa na man gud nako sudli. hahaha!
paila ra jud kong wa koy kwarta, busa ayaw mo palibre sa akoa. UG AYAW KO NINYU KIDNAPA! dahil manglugwa na lang ang mga mata ninyu, mang kulot na lang samot ang inyung mga buhok sa ilok, WALA KOY MAHATAG!
akong ATM gi himu na lang ug ruler sa akong manghud ba.
And naa pa nko akong Maybank na ATM.haha Katong sa akong trabaho saona. hehe Dugang sa ruler collection?
So, I decided to open up a bank account with BDO.
Tsenen! At dala ko ang aking School ID and my initial deposit.
Tupad pa jud mi ni MAG TV girl, and ilahang gi chika chika, tapos ako kai murag uyamot nga pinunit sa dalan, Y LIGO, ahaha, sayu pa man beh, tapos nidretso na lang ko kai kalit kalit man to nga decision.

Hollywood Actress
------------------------------------
In a different light, excuse me, but I beg to disagree.
I am a Katie Holmes. haha :D
I am the last love, I have the last laugh.
Yes, I am attracted to shorter men.
But still, I am a Katie Holmes rather than a Nicole Kidman.
An Angelina Jolie rather than a Jennifer Aniston :D

A letter to Bill Gates
I know this is corny but I only like the last part. Oh well, papel.. wala lang koi mabuhat kai exams namu ang i'm trying to amuse (?) myself. wa ko kasabot sa admin, oks? I got this from an email-
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Letter from Banta Singh of Punjab to Mr. Bill Gates of Microsoft
Subject: Problems with my new computer
Dear Mr. Bill Gates,
We have bought a computer for our home and we have found some problems, which I want to bring to your notice.
1. There is a button 'start' but there is no 'stop' button. We request you to check this.
2. We find there is 'Run' in the menu. One of my friends clicked 'run' he ran up to Amritsar ! So, we request you to change that to 'sit', so that we can click that by sitting.
3. One doubt is whether any 're-scooter' is available in system? I find only 're-cycle', but I own a scooter at my home.
4. There is 'Find' button but it is not working properly. My wife lost the door key and we tried a lot trace the key with this ' find' button, but was unable to trace. Please rectify this problem.
5. My child learnt 'Microsoft word' now he wants to learn 'Microsoft sentence', so when you will provide that?
6. I bought computer, CPU, mouse and keyboard, but there is only one icon which shows 'MY Computer': when you will provide the remaining items?
7. It is surprising that windows says 'MY Pictures' but there is not even a single photo of mine. So when will you keep my photo in that.
8. There is 'MICROSOFT OFFICE' what about 'MICROSOFT HOME' since I use the PC at home only.
9. You provided 'My Recent Documents'. When you will provide 'My Past Documents'?
10. You provide 'My Network Places'. For God sake please do not provide 'My Secret Places'. I do not want to let my wife know where I go after my office hours.
Regards,
Banta
Last one to Mr Bill Gates :
Sir, how is it that your name is Gates but u are selling Windows ?
