BRIDGE ACROSS FOREVER

We are living in an era when everything in life are recorded on the internet. Madaming bagay ang nakapost, from baby making, pregnancy, child birth, to puberty, to first keme, to early pregnancy, to becoming a first time parent, to being a tita/tito, to becoming ninong/ninangs, to becoming a lolo/lola to death, kulang na lang pati after life chaka reincarnation. Dahil sooooobrang dami ang naglipana sa internet na pictures, kaakibat nito ang caption! Sobrang iba iba din ang uri ng caption. From wala, to one word, to quotes, to song lyrics, to poems, to letter, to stories, to minsan nobela na besh. Hindi maiiwasan, ang mga taliwas sa paniniwala mo ang mababasa mo. Isang paniniwala na sobrang sikat ay, pagppost ng selfie na kita cleavage, pero ang caption eh bible verse. Puchangama! Anong konek ni papa God sa dede mo? Aber? Bago tayo makerid away. Himayin natin ang iba't ibang uri ng captions: 1. Unahin na nating ang mga gumagamit ng bible verses. Mahirap tong okrayin, dahil ma...

Three weeks ago, I decided to skip rice for a week, to test my mental capabilities. I just thought that, we always use the saying 'if you put your mind into anything, nothing is impossible'. So I made up my mind and  test it out on my food choices. For a week, I skipped white rice and depend mostly on my momma's home cooked ulams, still eating my occasional junk food.  When I was successful, but realized that Im a fat feelingerang frog, (nagkita kasi kami ng friends ko at may pikchur kami ng maganda kong frenny, payat nya! antaba ko)I decide to extend the challenge and shifted to greens, grains, and rootcrops. I still ignore white rice, but there was 1 time I have to give in. 2 mouthfuls, I already feel full. Di ako nag eexaggerate, I felt my body adjusting. So yun nga, the 2nd week, I only ate lettuce, pulled chicken, corn, iklok paminsan and spiced potatoes. May variety naman, kaso parang break up lang, naumay ako mamsh. Kaya mga after 3 months na lang siguro kami mag ...

On a hot September Saturday, I stayed home, got in front of my laptop, and enjoyed the gift of silence. Just like any other love song, It starts with a smile, kilig, and sunny, giddy dances, Just like any other love song, It stays with you, warming your tummy in a cold rainy weather, Just like any other love song, It fades, and leaves traces of you and him. ~ I can weave words and sentences to clothe you with love I can burn a garage just to keep you warm and snug I can destroy houses to build bridges..just so to see those beautiful brown eyes over and over again ~ No words are ever made to describe love Because love is not born to be spoken, It is to be shared with warm hugs, sloppy kisses and many things in between. ~ I'm writing you this letter, not to tell you I miss you, I'm writing you this letter, to thank you for teaching me what really letting go looks like, for giving up someone without fighting for her. I'm writing you this l...

Friday again! Happy weekend world! Again, I ask myself, how can I fucking write something happy and witty, if all I can do is sulk over the idea or feeling of being unwanted. I can’t even say that I like myself. Feeling ko nagkakaron na naman ako ng episode of the inevitable. Pero I can get over this, I know. Una sa lahat, patawad sa mga nagbabasa ng blogs ko, ang boring kong tao. Dead kid. Wala ng nagaganap na interesting sakin, maliban sa madami akong natututunan sa work ko. Yeth, I’ll tell you about my job. Nasa harap lang sya ng magandang building ng San Miguel. Nung 2015, wala pa tong building. Nag work kasi ako dati sa tabi netong building. Big hole lang to non. Dead end. Tanginang train of thought, napuputol, humihinto. Im cursed!!! Ohmaygaaaad! Gagawa na lang ako ng quick alamat! Ang topic for today, mga bata, ay tungkol sa alamat ng lipstick. Bilang mahilig sa lippie ang ating may akda, gumawa sya ng kwento tungkol sa kung paano nagsimula ang pamahid sa labi n...

Good day, from the Philippines na currently hinahagupit ng Typhoon Marukhit, a.k.a. Ompong. Or baka nakaalis na sya sa PAR, wala pang balita si NDRRMC, na nagka lablayp na kaya wala na paramdam. Bakit kasi hindi nila bigyan ng magandang pangalan yung mga bagyo? Laging hindi kagandahan eh. Di man lang, Zoraida, Segunda, Josefa. Yung classy, para kahit ang pangit ng panahon, ansaya padin tawagin ng pangalan nung bagyo. May lambing. May landi, pwedeng mahalin, para umalis na sya. Kasi ganon yon, pag minahal mo, iiwan ka. Hugot sa intro palang! What do I feel about writing today? Dahil nasa bahay lang ako, I might just work, and singit reading, writing, and hopefully a couple of beers just to cap off a gloomy night. September na, malapit na naman matapos ang taon, malamig na naman ang ating pasko! So again, the topic for today, mga bata, ay tungkol sa hopeless kong lablayp! hahaha. Ewan ko ba, bakit hindi ako nagsasawang utuin sarili ko na baka someday, balang araw in tagalog, ...
