Singkong duling.

Tito Jing: Bigyan mo naman ng tip.
Jov: Oo nga, Mama. Mabait naman ee.
Mama Ai: Bingiyan ko. Alam niyo namang malambot puso ko sa mga ganyang nakangiti. Pag sinimangutan mo ko, ni singkong duling wala.
Tito Jing: Bakit ganun, no? "Singkong duling..." May singko bang duling?
Jov: *LOL*
Tito Jing: Di ba pwedeng singkong banlag? Okay na yun, kesa duling. Kawawa naman yung duling ee.
Jov: *ROFL*

Happiness, or success?

• This is a convo I had with one of my closest friends while waiting for our transport home. Hindi siya exact words, of course, but it's basically the essence of the conversation.
• Jov: Nakakamiss si Irish... Kamusta na kaya ang New Zealand?
• Ces: Oo nga ee. I can't believe she's gone.
• Jov: Alam mo Ces, nung nag-babye tayo sa kanya nung Wednesday, naisip ko "What if ako na yung aalis?"
• Ces: Aaaaw. Jov. Wag ka ganyan... Anu na bang nangyare sa papers niyo?
• Jov: IDK. Nalilito nga ako ee. i don't even know what to cheer for. Kung gusto ko bang maprocess na sila, o ayoko.
• Ces: Kasi, nakakatatak na sa utak ng mga Pilipino na kailangan nilang mag-abroad para magkafuture.
• Jov: It's not that Ces. The moment I enrolled as a BS Nursing student, I kind of chose THAT future na din. Nurses don't have much of a future here, you know that. Everyone does.
• Ces: I guess.
• Jov: Ayoko umalis Ces, kasi ang saya ko sa buhay ko ngayon dito. I have amazing friends like you. I go to a good school. I'm happy. I'm contented. Pero I can't deny the fact na kapag yung future naman ang kinonsider ko, hindi yung present, mas maganda din talaga pag nagawa kong mag-abroad as early as now.
• Ces: So, Jov, it looks to me that the big question is, do you choose HAPPINESS, or SUCCESS?
• -----------
• How blunt. Simpleng tanung lang pala nu? Naenlighten ako ni Cesdel...
• I would automatically choose happiness, honestly.
• But it's not just my future at stake here. That makes the situation complicated... Hmm.

Hey Blog. It has been a while :)

I'm sorry I've been out of touch here for a long time. Don't worry, hindi ka pinalitan ng Facebook sa Puso ko, Multiply. Honestly, naeenjoy ko lang kasi masyado ang Tumblr. Haha :)) Number 1 pa din kita syempre.

Kamusta ka na?

Ako? Masaya! Presently, I am having an amazing life.

Bakit?

First of all, it's because I finally learned the secret of moving on... Totoo pala. You can't truly move on and let go of someone you loved unless you find somebody else to care for and realize that the former was never Mr. Right.
His name doesn't echo in my head whenever I hear it anymore. I don't look for him in a crowd, nor does his face ever pop in my head. I don't dream of seeing him again. I feel relieved, more than I can explain to you, for I have already, finally, let go of what used to kill me from the inside.
He will always be special, but he will also be just a memory from now. :)

I am also happy because I am doing okay in school. Well, more than okay actually. I was a little shocked about the grades I received last semester. I know I haven't been doing my best so I didn't expect them to be high, but they were extraordinarily more than I think I earned. Or maybe I just look at myself to poorly? Haha. Whatever. All I know is that COLLEGE IS A BLAST. (I miss high school though. Does that feeling ever go away? I think not.)
So far, the current semester is going great, too. Surprisingly, I am able to keep up with my Physics and Pharmacology subject... I don't want to praise myself too soon though. Baka majinx ako. LOL :))

I've been addicted to a song by Boys Like Girls and Taylor Swift lately. It's called Two Is Better Than One. Perhaps you know it? ... And perhaps, Two is indeed better than one.

Until next blog post then, my friend.
I'm gonna upload pitures now. I missed this. <3 span="">

XOXO.

i've been thinking... :)

There is a certain amount of thrill to think about mutual love. That the person we adore, likes us back. That the one we care about, returns the favor.

Everyone seeks their happily ever after...

But lately, I've been wondering how Fate sided with Cinderella and her Prince Charming, how the circumstances allowed her a happy ending.

Are those only in books and in movies?
'Coz in reality, everywhere i turn, i see an individual ruined by the very thing we all aspire.
Love.

An so I ask, how could girls, like me, and like you, still dream of love?
Are we all just hopelessly romantic?
Or just doomed to be hurt and broken, unlike those fairy tales we grew up hearing all about?

bakit masayang kachat ang mga XY chromosomes? :))

my Ondoy experience. x_x

unbelievable.

september 26, 2009... probably the worst day of my life.

ewan ko ba bat ang bait bait ko! pumasok pa kasi. ayaw na nga ako papasukin ng tatay ko, nagpumilit pa ko.
ayun tuloy, STRANDED.

mga 10am inannouce na sa piyu na suspended ang classes.
tapos syempre patambay tambay pa... mga 12:30 na talaga kami nagbalak umalis.
kumain pa nga kami sa mcdo morayta ee. (if you call that eating. i mean, coke float lang naman inorder ko. basically tumambay lang kami)
laking gulat ko ng pagbaba namin ng 1st floor ng mcdo, baha na sa lbas. siguro ankle-deep.
ayun.
natawa nga ako ee, may special service ang mcdo.
may motorcycle silang maghahatid sa customers a little way up gang dun sa di na baha.

ee ako, due to one important stroke of intelligence (which is rare, might i add), nagdala ngslippers. lumusong na lang ako.
kaso nung patawid na kami sa morayta, d rin tlg kakayanin. haha.
nagpaa nalang yung mga kasama ko namely steph, kelvin, jhane, and aaron.

nakakatawa pa nung mga oras na yun syempre.
we could not believe we were doing that.
we couldn't believe din na nagbabaha pala ng ganun sa morayta.
kala ko sa espanya lang uso yun. amp.

LRT kami lahat ee. so pakay sana naming dumaan na lang ulit sa school papuntang gate 2.
ee ayun. badtrip ang FEU, ayaw magpadaan ng estudyante. my goodness!
nakalabas na daw kasi, bawal na ulit pumasok. WTF?!
so lame.

ee di pumunta kami sa Ever. bumili sila kelvin ng slippers.
i have pics of that moment BTW. see my album.

anyways,
we parted ways after buying the slippers. LRT 2 kc yung tatlo.
kami ni kelbok LRT 1.
lakas ng hangin!
lakas ng ulan!
GRABE. mapipiga mu na yung palda ko. goodness gracious.

the LRT ride was quite smooth.
kahit na nakakaawa yung mga katabi ko kasi nababasa sila kasi basang basa ndn ako nun.
yugn jeepney ride ang devastating.
amp.
ewan ko ba kung bakit ang tanga tanga ko.
tama bang sumakay sa dulo ng jeep, yung sa may pinto, when one knows fully well na umuulan???!!!!!!
Gawd. Stupid.

so mga 1:30, umalis na yung jeep sa likod ng Northmall.
pagdating sa balintawak... Whoa. Traffic.
super mega hyper traffic.
literal na hindi gumagalaw yung vehicles.
mga 2-3hrs kme dun sa balintawak.

worse nung nsa NLEX na.

what a sight BTW!
daeng naglalakad sa NLEX!
alam mo yung, hinde na sila nagpapayong kc wla nmang point, mababasa din naman sila?!
nakakaawa.
dagdag mo pa yung traffic din. sobra.
same as nung sa balintawak, hinde nanaman gumagalaw!!!

tapos gumagabi ndn kasi, lamig na tuloy. sabay nababasa pa ako ng ulan dhil nga sa katangahan ko.
ayun :((
i endured that for sooooo long.
gusto ko na magwala nun. promise! naiiyak nko.
hinde ko pa macontact yung magulang ko.

i was soo hungry pa.
panu ba nman, nde ako naglunch at breakfast nun tas anung oras na, hinde pdn ako nakakakain! tummy ache ng bonggang bongga.

mga 9pm nko nakadating ng bulacan.
nung time na yung i was shivering na. tapos konting galaw lang kumikirot yung tiyan ko. nanghihina na tlga ko nun... si kelbok lang tlga nag-eempower sken to go on.

sinundo ako ng parents ko sa may simbahan.
natouch nga ako ee. parehas tlga clang andun (if you know the history of my family, alam mo why that is such an amazing sight to me.), looking worried and relieved at the same time.
nakakabigla! wlang ilaw sa buong subdivision. black out tlaga. wla ko halos makita.

sabi nga ng mom ko, kala daw niya hihimatayin nko nung nakita niya ko.
kasi naninigas tlga ko nun tas umiiyak nko.
natakot daw tlga siya.

HAAAAAAAAAYYY...
ang masasabi ko na lang, it's good to be home.
kahit wlang kuryente pagdating ko, iba pdn yung relief ee.
super kain at ligo ako nun.
kakadiri yung pinagdaanan ko ee.
lalo na yung baha sa morayta, amputek!!!

thank you Lord hinde mo ako pinabayaan.
alam kong siniswerte pdn ako dyan sa pinagdaanan ko na yan.

grabe si bagyong Ketsana (better known as Ondoy dito sa pinas).
have you searched OL kung gaano kalaki ang pinsala na nagawa niya?
nakakagulat.

i hope we all rise from this disaster.
i pray na lahat ng nasalanta ay makarecover.

may mga bagay lang tlga tayong hinde makokontrol, and storms are one of them.

kayo ba? anung Ondoy experience niyo?
SHARE NAMAN. :)

coward.

time doesn't heal wounds.
what heals these are the events that occur during the time elapsed.

after a little more than a year,
i can now truly say that my heart has healed.

And believe it or not,
even without a new love,
i have moved on and let go of the past.

what worries me most is why the hell can't i grab a future...
my future.

it irritates me that i can already glimpse it,
yet i'm not brave enough to walk towards it.

BSN220.

Guys,
I know we're all tired...
And i am aware that we are all sleepy, aching to lie in bed for a really long time.
WE ARE ALL IN THE SAME BOAT.

I doubt that we saw this coming when we decided to take up nursing.
Personally, i hate math.
And one of the minor reasons why i took this up was to rid myself of numbers.
Little did i know that CHN is one of my subjects and that it involves tallying.
My bad. Haha :))

But the fact is, we've already come so far.
Battery exam, freshman year... All done.

I know we can do this.
I know it.

We just have to back each other up.
We need one another...
Even God is with us.
Tingnan niyo, kahit papaano, productive yung wednesday 'til thursday na hindi natin pagtulog. Walang nangyaring masama sa mga umuwi ng gabi/madalign araw.
Pati si Sir Malapit, amazing ang timing. :)
I don't think those are coincidences.

Remember that the so-called "secrets of success" will not work unless we do.

At ano rin ba yung secrets of success na yun?
Si Pam na firm and hard working na Community Leader.
Si Pae na effective and maprinsipyong President.
Ikaw... Na even in your little way, na khit wala kang titulo, ay makakatulong ng malaki.
We, ourselves, are the secret to our success.
So get a move on! Kaya yan! :)

Honestly, I've become attached to this section na.
And as much as I hate CHN, I still thank it for being the challenge that is bonding us more.

Sorry na din if ever may nasigawan ako, at sa mga pagkukulang ako.
I'll do better.

NOT ONE LESS, 220. >:D<
XOXO.
