Libreng gamot from yours truly

Pagpasensyahan po ang aking matagal na pagkawala. Akala ko naisuka ko na lahat ng ampalaya sa sistema ko, hindi pa pala. Hindi pala ganun kadali malimot ang limang taong pagsasama. At hindi rin pala mabuti na hindi ilabas ang galit kasi nakakaloka.

Buti nakahanap ako ng paraan para unti-unting ilabas ang bitterness and at the same time makatulong pa sa kapwa (breakthrough in medicine itu!)

1. Kumuha ng isang tasang mainit na tubig.

2. Kawkawin at haluhaluing mabuti ang tubig gamit ang mga daliri.

3. Dasalan ng orasyon, murahin ang ex, mas malutong na mura, mas maigi.

4. Pag naging kulay tsaa na ang tubig, ready na ito para ipainom sa pasyente. Mabisang gamot sa diabetes.

5. Tawagin nyo na akong charantia.

Kung gusto nyo ng libreng gamot na ito, magmadali at kontakin ako now na. Malapit na kasi magexpire at maubos ang pait, salamat naman! (Indication: nakapagsulat na ulit ako! :p sana magtuloy-tuloy na, masaya na ko kahit sa once a week na post).

Crosses Fingers

Short post lang. (*Updates ko yung mga nakaitalize...)


Since stop right now na ko sa pagdwell sa past at may-I-erase-erase-erase na ako sa bitterness, itutuon ko na lang ang pansin ko sa mga bagay na happy. (talaga lang?!) Haha. And I am excitedly looking forward to the following:


@ Trip to Cebu (February) - budget cut due to recession, nde natuloy!
@ New Laptop (March) - yehey sa Lifebook S6420
@ DSL connection at home (March) - check sa Globelines broadband
@ Teambuilding at Coron, Palawan (March) - salamat at natuloy naman, winner!
@ A hefty annual increase (April) - may increase pero nde hefty... sadness.
@ Adventures at Romblon (April) - nde natuloy
@ Trip to El Salvador and the US (3rd or 4th quarter) - budget cut due to recession, nde matutuloy!
@ Savings account for Travel Fund (hmmmm....) - goodluck!
@ Prospect of a New Love (on-going, haha) - no comment... :p
@ More blog posts (year round) - i'll try... pero goodluck!




Hopefully, macheck silang lahat, para fierce! :p



(Next post, The Sagada-Batad Challenge.)

p.s. nakalimutan ko sabihin na karamihan sa mga nasa listahan ay thank you po, officina (like the laptop and the trips to cebu, coron and the US.) ahihihihi

Back?

I apologize for the long and unannounced absence.

The last quarter of last year has not been so good to me, well mostly due to the lovelife.

I was so into nursing my bruised heart I lost whatever it is I lost. All I know is that hard as I may have tried, I couldn't get myself to write. I wanted to share lots, I just couldn't.

There was this production/play I joined (and which kept me busy for a while) for the office christmas party. I could've shared how hard it was to memorize all the steps, how tiring the practices were, how fun it was to make the props, how exciting it was to perform on stage in front of thousands. I could've posted a video showing our presentation or showed how colorful our costumes were or how proud I was when we won second place.

I could've shared how sad I was on my birthday. How I cried because of exhaustion (from the practice), because someone forgot to greet me, because I got my neon green unitard (for crying out loud, please, how will I able to fit in. And junujun, oh junjun, how will i hide thee?) costume, because I felt I had no time for myself not even to make myself some fruit salad.

I could've shared the pounds I lost and the few inches I shaved off my waist (that I think I am gaining back again).

I could've shared how I felt when I learned there was someone new in his life. When he bothered me on Christmas day. When he called on New Year's eve.

I could've shared how slighty triumphant (and maybe silly) I felt when he told me of his new boyfriend's small, ehem, tool problem.

I could've shared the recipes of the food we prepared for our yearly barkada party, posted the preparations we made, the gifts I got.

I could've shared how bored was I when I stayed in the boondocks for the holidays. How drunk I got the night of the New Year. But I didn't, I couldn't.

I was too tired and too miserable to even try and bother.

And then a recent trip got me a chance to do a little introspection.

I realized that I have been missing a lot by wallowing in grief. That there is more to life than be bitter. And that it is always better to choose to be better. That I don't need all that much drama in my life. That my happiness is my own will.

I realized that I should be moving on and start moving forward, no matter how hard it may seem.

I realized that I should open my heart to someone who would love me and accept me for who I am.

I realized that it was a good idea after all that I didn't change my person just to conform with someone else's desire (and new preference).

I realized how I missed travelling and that it's probably best to start planning trips again (no matter how short or near they are). And that it's refreshing to meet and converse with other people. And knowing their culture, the way they think, their way of life. Sharing their other travel experiences.

I realized how fun it was to do new things. New is good.

A short weekend getaway was all I needed to jumpstart my life again.

So yeah, PrincheCHA Fiona is back.

Crazy, Crazy Sunday Part1

I started my Sunday very very early. Slept at 2am, woke up at 3. Got ready, dressed up. It was going to be a long busy day.

First stop.

Clark Freeport, Pampanga for the New Balance Power Race. It would be my first time to join a 10kilometer run and I was feeling nervous (afraid I wouldn't be able to finish the race with just 1 hour sleep) and excited (running on new route is always exciting plus if I make it, I'm gonna have my first finisher medal!) at the same time.

The race started at around 5:50am. The weather was excellent for a race day, it was cool and cloudy (contrary to what I expected of a hot Clark weather). The route was interesting with rolling hills and the greens and the mountains and all. More importantly, the air was fresh! A perfect day running my first 10k! :)

During the first 2 kilometers, I actually thought I wasn't going to finish the race. I honestly thought of going back. My left ankle (with a history of chronic ankle sprain per the md at pain and rehab, damn those boots! lol) was acting up, it was aching so bad! But I just ignored it and suddenly, like a miracle, the pain was gone! :)

Good thing I brought an ipod and it was a great help! When I was feeling exhausted, I would sing out loud with the music, sometimes startling other runners. :)

Then I started talking to myself. lol With each kilometer marker that I'd pass by, I'll start chanting: "3 more kilometers... 3 more kilometers", "2 more kilometers Fiona, you can do it!" and "1 more, you're almost there... don't stop running now, don't slow down... go, go, go".

And it all worked for me! I finished the race and I had a great finish!!! :) According to the iPod's stopwatch, I completed the 10k course (ahem, my first try!!!) in 1 hour 12 mins and 36 seconds (I was expecting to finish it in 1hour and 35mins)! Woohoo! It must have been the weather... or the pepping, I don't know! :p

Overall, this was the best race I have attended so far. There were ample of water stations (giving out bottled water every 2.5k), there were plenty of marshals, there were markers for every kilometer. All finishers received medals, bananas, a bar of chocolate, magazines, energy drinks and goodiebags. There were even physical therapists who helped runners recover after the race!

And did I mention the cute guys! Oh. My. Gosh. The cute guys!!! There were a plenty!!! Oh my, oh my! lol I don't know where to look coz there really were a lot of gorgeous (and muscled) guys who ran that day! Isn't it a great feeling, cutey guys running after you or you chasing (and sometimes overtaking) buff men?

Oh what a day! And it still is just starting...

Si Angelina at si Yaya - Ang Ballet at Jazz class

Angelina: Yaya, attend tayo ng ballet at jazz class tomorrow. Then let's have dinner. Para sabay na din tayo pauwi.

Yaya: Ok.



(Kinabukasan)

Angelina: Yaya don't forget our ballet and jazz class later ha?

Yaya: Naku, hija, baka sa jazz class na lang kita masabayan. Di pa kasi tapos yung mga labada ko eh, tas magpaplantsa pa ko mamya. Pero sure yun, pupunta ako sa jazz lessons.



(A little later)

Yaya: Asan na kaya yung batang yun? Wala naman dito sa dance studio. Naku naman.



Yaya sa text: Angelina, asan ka?

No response.



(After ng jazz class)

Yaya sa text: Akala ko ba sabay tayong magcaclass? Ba't wala ka? Tsaka kala ko ba sabay tayo magdidinner? Tsaka sabay na tayo uuwi?

No response.



Yaya: Hay naku magkadaan nga muna sa Tapsilogan bago umuwi.



(Sa bahay)

Yaya: Bata, ka ba't wala ka kanina? At hindi ka pa nagreply sa text ko sayo. Akala ko ano na nagyari sayo.

Angelina sa text: Yaya, sorry, my phone is on silent mode eh. Di na ako nagclass, nagyaya kasi yung ibang classmates na magmall eh. So sumama na lang ako sa kanila.

Yaya: Jaskeng bata to! Sana sinabi mo agad, di ko pa tuloy natapos yung mga plantsahin ko.

Angelina: Sorry na nga eh!

Yaya: Oh eh ano pang magagawa ko? Aruy, ansakit tuloy ng mga balakang ko! Asan na ba yung Salonpas?



(Pag-alis ni Yaya)

Angelina: You're such a major loser talaga Yaya! Eh nde naman talaga ako sumama sa mga classmates ko magmall eh! Duh. Hahaha. Yung bagong classmate na si Kenneth kaya ang kasama ko!Ha. Ha. Nagchachacha kaming dalawa. It's so fun. And exciting!



Yaya: Aba putris na bata ka, naririnig pa kita uy. Dahil dyan, maligo ka magisa mo. Kaw na din magluluto ng pagkain mo araw-araw. Matuto ka na din maglaba at magplantsa, dahil lalayasan na kita.



Angelina: Yaya, joke only. Sorry na, pretty please, please, please (bats her eyelashes).





(hango sa totoong mga pangyayari.)

Kwentong Takbuhan

Bago ang kwento, kanta muna tayo, dedicated sayo.

You say, that you've always been true
Lookin' in your eyes, I see you lie
You're trying hard to hide that
There someone new you found and,
You want me to believe that you still care

How can you hurt me this way
Everything I knew was lovin' you
How could you try pretending
Your love was never ending

Now you can't even say that you will stay

How, how could you say you love me
When you would go and leave me
How could you make me hurt so bad
When I have loved you more than anyone can do
Can't believe the pain
That I'm feeling now because of loving

I can't seem to understand
How can love me so unkind
Still you broke my heart
Despite what I've done
Still my love was not enough
Though I given you my all
I can't take it anymore


O stop na ang atungal. Syet.

May isang blogger na nagtanong sa akin a few weeks ago, ba't parang hindi na daw ko tumatakbo. Actually, nde lang ako nagkukwento pero madalas pa din ako tumakbo. In fact, bawat lingo ng October may sinalihan akong takbo. At sa apat na takbong yun, apat na libras din ang nawala sa akin (pero yung 2 pounds na-gain ko ulit bwiset!).

Takbo Breast Friend nung Oct 5 (around Ultra, Meralco Ave, J. Vargas, C5 then back to Ultra). Sponsored ng Soroptimist. Breast cancer awareness ang advocacy ng run na to. Before ang takbuhan, tinuruan kami kung pano mageksamin ng suso, na kelangan daw gawin buwan-buwan, mapa lalaki o babae. Alam nyo ba na may mga lalaki din na nagkakabreast cancer? Sabi yun ni Ate na nagturo ng limang isteps para sa tamang pageksamin ng suso (pero dahil nde ako nakikinig, di ko na maalala yung mga isteps.)

Wla akong tulog bago ang race, pero siniguro ko na bagong shave ang aking mga legs. Para pag suot ko ang aking short shorts eh maganda tignan. At dahil halos lalaki ang mga kalahok (mga estudyante at mga pulis) at kokonti lang kaming, ehem, babae, lagi akong nililingon. Dahil ba seksi ako tignan from the back at maganda ang butt ko?! Hmpt, kainis. Pero mas kainis dahil pag tapos nila ako iovertake at lingunin, parang sila pa yung maiinis. Baket, dahil wala akong breasts? Mga hampaslupang manyak! hahaha.

Anyway, napagod ako ng husto dito sa race na to, dahil may uphill na sobrang haaaaba. As in pinagisipan ko talaga na makisakay na lang sa ambulansya at hindi na tapusin ang race sa sobrang pagod ko. Pero natapos ko pa din. Dahil dun sa cute na kapace ko na estudyante ata ng PNPA. hihihihi.


Adidas King of the Road sa the Fort nung Oct 11. Another sleepless race for me. At late kami ng mga 12mins. Ang magaling kasing si Jimboi, hindi nagpaalarm, at sinisi pa ko na hindi ko sya ginising. At yung dadaanan namin eh dadaanan din ng mga 10k at 21k runners kaya sinasarado yung daan. So ayun, napilitan kaming magpark na malayo sa starting line. So imbes na 5k lang ang takbuhin ko, naka-7k ata ako nun. Tsaka nakakahiya dahil nung papunta pa lang ako sa starting line at kasalubong ko yung mga tumatakbo, sinasabihan ako na the other way yung race (naman. as if hindi ko alam na against the flow ako di ba?!). Anyway, medyo mabilis ako sa race na to. Yun nga lang, dahil late, ampanget ng official time ko. At walang tubig, buti na lang may dala akong sariling energy drink. Hmpt.


Botak Paabilisan sa the Fort nung Oct 19. Stand up and take action, support the Millennium Development Goals naman ang advocacy ng takbong ito. About sa pagtulong sa mga ina at sa pag-aaral ng mga kabataan. Hindi naman totally sleepless ako sa race na to, may 2 hours of sleep naman ako dito. Maganda ang race singlet, kulay orange at black. Nakakatuwa dahil may mga Star Troopers na todo costume na nakitakbo kahit hindi naman costume-costuman effect ang run. Pero kaaliw pa din sila. Ang nakakairita ay yung ibang marshals dahil nung papunta na kami sa starting line, ang sabi nila pang 10k lang daw muna. So kami naman eh umalis at nagpicture-picturan muna sa mga Star Troopers at nagliwaliw lang. (Nakita ko din si Elma Muros kaso nahiya ako magpapicture. Hihihihi) Turned out na magkasabay palang tatakbo yung 10k at 5k runners. Hmpt. Naubusan tuloy ako ng hininga kakahabol sa mga nauna ng runners. Kainis. Competitive pa naman ako! Hahahahaha.


Yung last na takbo ko for October sa next post ko na ikukwento. Inaantok na ko eh. Hahaha. O sya babush muna mga Ateng!




See you at the next race. Ready, Get Set, Run!

10/27

I woke up this morning and I remembered the date. I felt sadness creep inside me. It came without warning. I should have expected it.

Today should have been our fifth year together. But today we are not.



Oh well, sabi nga nila...

pasintabi sa mga kumakain

SHIT HAPPENS. But we must move on and continue on with our lives.



Pwede namang maghugas pagkatapos. O magpunas ng tissue.





(Haaaay, nangangamoy pa din. Di ata ako nakapaghugas pa ng maayos.)

the end

A hunch.


270 peso cab fare.


Easter egg hunting with the erring partner.


Busted - telenovela style.


The end.




Princhecha is now single.

Circles and Squares

Let's go back around this time, year 2003...

Twenty na aketch nun, pero virginia wolfe pa din ang drama. Though I was not really seeking for the experience. Pagurl kasi si bakla! Di naniniwala sa casual encounters. Gusto may feelings involved. Choosy, ayaw ng basta-bastang churchur.

Super closey-closey na kami ni Jimboi nung mga panahong to pero di pa kmi. Since mageend na ang sem nun, madalas kami magsleep-over gawa ng mga papers na tinatapos namin.

So sa isang overnight chuchu para sa isang project, magkatabi kami sa pagtulog.

Nacurious ang Princhecha. Nakabasa kasi ako ng isang article sa Cosmo. So inisip ko na itry kung totoo ba.

Sabi kasi sa article, nakakaturn on daw sa isang guy pag magtetrace ng kung ano-anong shapes sa chest at abs.

So ayun na nga, habang natutulog si Jimboi ay sinubukan kong magpractice magsketch. Doodle-doodle si bakla. Ginawang drawingan ang dibdib at tyan ng pobreng natutulog.

Small circle, small circle, big circle. Aba, aba, aba, napansin kong lumalalim ang hininga ng human sketchpad. So sige pa sa drawing, malapit-lapit na ding matapos ang obra maestra. Squares, squares, lots of squares.

Naglalagay na lng ako ng mga finishing touches - a few dots here a few dots there ng biglang - OMG! - hinawakan ni Jimboi ang kamay ko. Nagulat ako, kala ko magagalit at pipigilan ako.

Pero mas nagulat ako! Kinuha nya ang kamay ko para pala ipadama na may ibang nagalit dahil sa drawing exercise ko.

Natigilan ako ng ilang saglit.

Binawi ko ang kamay ko and I stormed out of the room.

Hindi pa ko ready, malay ko bang effective pala ang turo ng magazine!

Hindi ko alam ang gagawin ko! Stupid I know, pero napaiyak na lang ako. Pagurl talaga ang bakla! Drama queen ang moda.

Naisip ko kasi na nakakahiya. Nag-isip ako na baka magkailangan na kmi ni Jimboi at baka masira ang aming friendship.

Lumabas din sya ng kwarto. Nagpasorry sya. Pero mas nagpasorry ako. Sabi nya matulog na lang daw kami at wala yun.

Kinabukasan, nag-usap kami at napagpasyahan naming kalimutan na lang ang nangyari...

End of story.

Bitin kung bitin gaya ng pagkabitin ng nabitin sa biting drawing exercise.




p.s.
Asa naman na makakalimutan lang ang ganung pangyayari noh! Syempre churva material din yun! ahihihihi
At syempre nde rin naglaon, nang maging kami, eh natapos at natapos din ang obra maestra. But that's another story... :p

p.p.s.
Lesson learned, maniwala sa Cosmo. Effective ang tips. Tried and tested.
But kids, don't try this at home. Or do.

Excuse Moi

Shoesmio! Nayanig na ang mga institution sa Wall Street nde pa din ako nakakabalik sa tamang wishoe, anuver!

Anyway, gusto ko lang kayo kamustahin.

At saka pala konting kwento na din.

Nung isang araw, napagpasyahan kong magbus pauwi (madaling araw na kasi ako usually umuuwi kaya madalas ako mangwaldas ng pera sa cab).

So ayun nga. Pumara na ng bus. Sumakay. Naghanap ng cute na matatabihan. hihihihihi. "Shaw po." sabi ko sa kunduktor sabay bayad.

Sa sobrang pagod, di ko na napigil maidlip sa bus. Nagising na lang ako ng makarinig ako ng mahinang "Excuse me. Miss, excuse me...". Antok-antok akong nagbigay ng puwang para makadaan si cute, thinking na baba sya.

Ngumiti lang si cute at lumipat ng upuan sabay sabing "Shaw na.". Nagulat at biglang gising ang malay ni bakla, sabay tayo at dagling baba ng bus. Hindi man lang ako nakapagpasalamat kay excuse-me-guy. Nakakawala pala ng manners ang puyat. Kung hindi nya ako ginising, malamang umabot ako ng Cubao o North Edsa. haha. Ni hindi ko man lang sinuklian ang ngiti nya ng mas matamis na ngiti o kahit flying kiss man lang.

Pero huli man daw at magaling, kung nababasa mo to mamang pogi na gumising sa akin, thank you ha!

----------

Birthday ng kaibigan ko at magpapaparty sya sa Sabado. Open mic daw with a live band ang drama. Tas dahil mayaman naman na sya, naisip nya na imbes daw na dalhan namin sya ng gift, magdonate na lang daw kami ng cash para sa isang outreach ministry na napili nya. Shushal, may philanthropic kyeme pa itong nalalaman.

Pero nde pa ko sumasagot sa RSVP nya, nde ko pa kasi sure kung pupunta ako. Una, may takbo kasi ako ng maaga sa Sunday. Pangalawa, nde pa ko nakakapagpractice ng production number ko para sa open mic at nde pa tapos yung costume na pinatahi ko, ahihihihi. At ikatlo, wa akong ninoy na pambigay sa charity. Nakakahiya namang magsobre ng limang tigbebente.

----------

Ayun lang muna ang update ni princhecha. Malapit-lapit na siguro ang totoong pagbabalik.

Kunek d dots

Lately I'm feeling extremely exhausted.
I'm lacking quality sleep, when I wake up I feel I haven't even slept a wink.
Now I am taking the late afternoon-early evening shift at work.
I have finished my reading list.
I have watched all the tv series (c/o my dvd pirata/suki).
I get Jimboi irritated when I unintentionally interupt his slumber.
He gets me irritated when just as I'm about to finally snooze he starts to prepare for work and would chat me up asking what I think about this or that.
We haven't had our labing-labing for quite some time now.

My insomnia is worse than ever and I hate it.

I feel crap I can't even write a decent post.

p.s.

See you later when I finally get some restful sleep. I missed you all!

In case you're wondering, buhay pa ang princhecha, nakakatakbo pa, thank you girls very much!

Pasensya naman at eons ago pa since last akong nakapagupdate ditey. Wala naman akong excuse para nde mag-update, andami ko ngang topics na bet iwrite, pero ewan, nde ako makasulat.

O sya cge, meron akong excuse. Wala kasi akong jinternet kunekshun ngayon sa balaychina. hahaha. Pasensya, hampas lupa. Sa office naman nde ako makapagconcentrate. Ang hirap kayang magpretend na busy sa work habang sumusulat lang pala ng novela sa blog! Ahihihihi.

So ano palang updates meron aku?

Ayun, nagmega run pala ako ng aking ikajopat na race evah! Ang Run4 Ur Lyf. Ayon sa website ng organizer ng run: "The campaign for a picture based health warning in tobacco products through the fun run last August 17, 2008 at the UP Diliman Campus was one big step in advancing the cause. With more than 500 participants, the Run 4 Ur Life raised awareness on and increase support of the Picture Based Health Warning Bill pending in the Senate and in the Congress."

Knowings nyo na ba 10 Filipinos die every hour due to cigarette smoking? Wala namang magiging gastos ang gobyerno sa picture-based health warning, ba't hindi pa ito ipasa?

Anyhoo, ano naman ang mga kaganapan sa run? Ayun, unang stop pa lang para sa pagkuha ng tubig (which, mind you, is tinatabo lang galing sa drum papunta sa mga cups, so kung hindi lang uhaw na uhaw ka na eh di mo maiisipang uminom! hihihihi) ay natapilok na ako! Yung aking chronic ankle sprain ay nagbabadya na naman. Buti na lang at naka ankle guard ako pag tumatakbo kaya nde naman masyado nainjure ang beauty! Yun nga lang, mas bumaba ang aking time! More than 40minutes ko natapos ang 5k!

Pero froud naman ako sa aking Jimboi! Kahit pangalawang race pa lang nya to, muntik na sya magplace! Shushalin! May potential si lolo! I'm froud! :p Konting practice pa eh feeling ko magkakamit sya ng medalya! ahihihihi...

At dahil nagpramis ako na manonood, kahapon ay nagtungo ako sa Cine Adarna sa UP para manood ng premier ng the Thank You Girls! Bongga! Nagdouble shift ako nung nakaraang araw para makaliban sa pasok (pero pumasok pa din naman ako after... hahaha), nagpamove pa ko ng conference call para makapunta inferness! Pero sulit ang panonood!

At dahil sabi ko nga sa dati kong post na nde ako marunong sumulat ng film review ay nde pa rin ako magaattempt na gagawa ng isa. haha.

Basta masasabi ko lang, job well done Bebs! :) Magaling, magaling, magaling! Ilang beses akong napahagalpak! Kakatawa siya ha! Nakakaaliw ang mga lines. Bentang-benta! At halatang pinag-isipan! Clap, clap, clap! At hindi lang buhay tyg sa mg ang pinakita. Ano-ano pa yung mga yun? Aba, panoorin nyo na lang to find out! hihihihi.

Nakita ko din si Coco Martin! Naman! Kilig to the bones (with maihi-ihi effect) ang beauty ng princhecha, too bad nga lang nde ako nakapagdala ng digicam! Kainis!

At nakapagpaowtograph din ako kay direk! Hahahaha. Magiging collectors item din to balang araw! hihihihi

Tsaka may bonus na free CD pa pla ng Roxymorrons. Oh di ba sulit? hihihihi

Last but not the least! Natupad din sa wakas ang matagal ko nang inaasam. Pangarap ko na nung bata pa ako na makita ang pangalan ko sa mga film credits, kaya lo and behold, halos mapaiyak ako sa gulat at tuwa ng mabasa ko ang pangalan ko sa pinilakang tabing! Kulang na lang magsusumigaw ako sa sine! Hahahaha

So sa mga nde nakanood, watch kayo pag pinalabas na sya sa sinehan. Abangan ang Advance Screening sa Sept 23, 9:00pm sa Robinsons Indiesine. Ang regular screening ay sa Sept 24-30. Don't miss the chance na mapanood ang future international award winning film na itu! ahihihihihi.

Sambahin nyo sila! Char lang! :p

Kitakita sa races at sa cinema! Babuu!


(At, mahal ko kayong lahat! May ganun? hahahaha)

Wag si Bakla?

A few days ago, I met with two of my friends (one girl, the other a PLU who just came out to us late last year).

While eating at Green Tomato, our conversation led to Project Runway.

Naturally, I told them who my favorite designers were and also said that I find Eli (which according to the PLU friend is pronounced as ee-lie (parang ilaw na ginawang y yung w) and not Eh-li) cute and is my new crush.

And then he blurted with a little hint of a disgusted tone: "Wag, yun! Wag yun! Baklang-bakla!"

Napataas na lang ang kilay ko, sabi ko: "Oh eh ano naman."

"Tsaka parang jologs daw. Basta sobrang layo nung itsura nya daw sa personal dun sa pictures nya sa net. Nakadate na yun nung friend ko eh. Turn-off daw nung nagkita sila sa personal."

Fine. So bawal na magkacrush sa bakla? Eh hello bakla pare-pareho naman tayong bakla? Sa tomboy nga nagkacrush ako once, sa bakla pa kaya?

Tsaka hello crush lang naman, vahket kelangang gawan ng issue kung baklang-bakla ang isang bakla? At ano kung type nya magpose ng panlalaki sa kanyang mga pictures. Masama?

Pati pa ba naman sa kung sino ang pwede maging crush kelangan may discrimination? Naman. Tigilan ako.

Basta sa akin, ang cute ay cute kahit pa effeminate, straight acting, lalaki, babae o tomboy.


p.s.

Hindi ko na crush si Ee-Lie, hindi dahil sa baklang-bakla sya kumilos sa Project Runway, kundi dahil inaaway nya si sister Veejay! Hmpt! Pero bet ko pa din ang kanyang mga star tats. hihihihihi

Hiphop vs Waltz

I only enjoyed 50% of Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella with Lea Salonga playing the slaved-girl-turned-princess starring role.

Why?

Because I only got to see the final half of the musical! (Dammit, the scene I was very much looking forward to seeing, the one when Cinderella is magically transformed into a princess (glittery gown, tiara and all), the pumpkin and rats turned into the carriage and horses, that part I did not get to see!!!!! Imagine my disappointment!)

Why wasn't I able to see the first act?

Because we were sooo late!

And why were we late?

Because someone decided to attend his hiphop class (at 11am-12pm) and then join his classmates eat at a fast food restaurant afterwards (fully knowing that we are seeing the matinee show which starts at 3pm). Anyone would know that this is such a brilliant decision, right?

Afterall, dancing to the groove is way better than watching silly actors (some Tony award winners at that!) dance waltz! Eating chicken joy instead of (for that particular someone) sleeping in your seat with world class performers humming your lullaby.

So yes, attending hiphop classes which are held everyday is a wiser act than being able to watch all of Cinderella (which has Manila as the first leg of the Asian tour which means we are seeing a world premier) that would only run until August 24.

Did I mention that the hiphop classes come in free with gym membership while you actually have to pay for your tickets to watch the play so not missing on a hiphop class is more clever a move than missing half your ticket's worth.

And yeah, I wasn't enraged last Saturday afternoon, I was fucking fuming mad.
