so many things. (posted: Saturday, November 29th, 2008)

i write in online blogs for therapeutic reasons, really. and i’m writing here because it’s more discreet. i know very few people, if any, read this blog. then why post it online, you ask? well, because i think that deep inside i still want to be heard, but only to those who want to know what’s going on. if you want to read what i write, it’s right here. but it’s not too in-your-face, like in multiply or facebook.
anyway, things bothering me:

1. vica’s departure. i think i might have wrote this in the barkada card thing tiny made for her — vics, if someone told me 10 years ago that we’d be this close, i wouldn’t have believed them, but here we are. no goodbyes because i know i’ll see you again. so till next time. i will miss you, my dear friend.
of all the people to leave first, did it have to be someone who i constantly hung out with??? and it’s just starting to sink in, you know? not even last night. i mean, i remember that when we said goodbye last night, vica had to be the one to ask for a hug. i’d forgotten it would be the last time i’d see her for an indefinite period of time. i’d forgotten it wasn’t just one of those friday nights.

2. my parents are suffocating me.
sam, katz and i were talking last night about how even if we’re out of college we’re not exactly free yet. and i remember saying, i can’t believe i gave up my freedom. i was free — no curfew, no nagging text messages or phone calls. and i gave that up. of course there were more important considerations. but i am still not used to living like this. i need to adjust, i know. but i wish that they’d just let me grow up and give me some space.
and i find it so sad that my relationship with my parents has deteriorated to a point that they seem to have given up on me. and i know that i’m to blame (although i think that they might also have their part), but it’s so hard to fit back into the mold that i left behind.

3. my so-called lovelife. this has taken a backseat to everything that’s been going on lately. well you see, there’s this guy that i like. and i really really really like him. and i’ve liked him for a while. but i was in denial for almost a year, and then i finally admitted it to myself and to several friends. but i can’t admit it to him yet because circumstances aren’t right now. i want to gauge what he wants from me. i think i might have become a habit, and i’ve been pushed back to the friend zone.

4. everything else in my life.
i feel like i’m just floating through life, you know? and i feel like every minute that’s passed is another minute that’s wasted. i need to find that passion, that fire that will fuel my drive to make something of myself. or else, i’m just this empty shell that’s just waiting for the end.

i am thankful for the one who picks me up when i’m down. the one who always says the right things. but i hate myself for wishing he was someone else, because the one i want only likes the bubbly happy me.

sometimes i think that maybe you’re just being cautious like i am. tonight i will take a little step towards bravery (counting on the fact that you don’t read this). one green light that i would want to have is to be able to tell you how i feel, and know that you more or less feel the same way. cause all i see right now are blinking yellow lights. caution. caution. possible heartbreak ahead.

paranoid-ish. haha. (posted: Sunday, November 23rd, 2008)

i am SLIGHTLY paranoid that a certain someone unexpectedly read my previous post. that would be embarrassing. *blush* :P

as long as you want it. (insert last line here.) (posted: Friday, November 21st, 2008)

darn it. this blog is turning into a compilation of some of my most pathetic thoughts. but what the heck. it is what it is.

backgrounder: i went on a blogging frenzy more than a year ago when i FINALLY got over someone. and then, i liked someone else, and so probably the object of the many ‘things i could not say to you, but i’d rather announce to the world’ posts here is probably you. you, who will probably not read this, that is why i’m so confident at posting these things. (:P) i’m chicken, dba?

the way i see it there are two things that can be done:
1. kill all hope in me for you. - giving up
2. fighting for you.

you know, curiousity got the better of me tonight. and i followed on a previous hunch. and i found her. and really there’s nothing wrong with you liking her, because i did push you away so many times, and i did realize LATE that you were the reason why i was smiling all those times.

i’ve always gone after the things i wanted. i want to fight. you’ve got to gamble to win something right?

but my brain is telling me to give up. what’s the point, when in the end, you’re going in different directions anyway? sabi nga ni bob ong, wag mong hawakan ang alam mong bibitawan mo lang.

(please, please give me a reason to fight.)

papakawalan na nga…one day. (posted: Monday, November 10th, 2008)

i used to say, “he’ll have to be the one to let go.” i figured that it will never be over until he says it’s over, because i’m stupid enough to go back and back and back. in hindsight though, i think that the final say in has always been mine. and i as i was driving home today i wondered, when would the last “i think it’s over” and “ayoko na” be?

it would be so much easier if i couldn’t see through your lies.

I saw us dancing through sunshine and rain. (posted: Saturday, October 18th, 2008)

wow, it’s been so long since i wrote here.

Heh, you know
Someone loses someone they love everyday
And I’m fortunate to still have you in my life
‘Cause I know I made some mistakes in the past but
I’m tired of making excuses
Listen
For whatever might have been
And all that it never was
Whatever I couldn’t see
And all that I didn’t want
There was a method to my madness girl
That wasn’t clear to me
Until the day I saw your face
When I saw everything
For I saw us dancing through sunshine and rain
And I saw us laughing through joy and through pain
And I saw time passing but we did not change
And I still saw us together at the end of every day

Whenever you want it
Whenever you need it
Whatever you feel like, it’s gon’ be like
You better believe it
Whenever you feel like dancing
You don’t have to dance alone, no
You know, you know, you know
You should already know
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I felt you inside myself
Before I could even feel
I knew you like no one else
But still I couldn’t tell, Oh
Girl, none of it made sense to me
Girl, none of it was real
Until the day I saw your face
And it was clear to see
Whenever you want it (Whenever you want it)
Whenever you need it (Whenever you need it, baby)
Whatever you feel like, it’s gon’ be like
You better believe it (You better believe it)
Whenever you feel like dancing
You don’t have to dance alone, no (Oh, no)
You know, you know, you know
You should already know
I choose you (I choose you, baby)
I choose you (I choose you, girl)
I choose you
I choose you (You know that I choose you)
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
Throughout our times, people have searched their lives
Hoping that they might find the chance where they can make things right
Through my desire, thank God I found the fire
Oh, for everything has led me straight to you (Youuuu….)
Whenever you want it
Whenever you need it (Baby)
Whatever you feel like, it’s gon’ be like
You better believe it (Oh, you better believe it)
Whenever you feel like dancing
You don’t have to dance alone, no
You know, you know, you know
You should already know
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you (Yeah, oh baby darling)
I choose you (Said I’m choosing you)
I choose you (Oh baby baby)
I choose you (Girl I made up my mind)
I choose you (And I choose you)
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you

It’ll all get better in time”

Don’t know where to put you anymore
You can’t be kept inside my dresser drawer
I find the pieces of you in my dreams
And in the evenings
Spill out the edge of my mind.
Memories of you feel like they’re miles wide
It’s all I can do to get to the other side
Of these evenings
I’ll see you tonight in the back of my mind
When I remember your skin like I remembered it then
When you would dress me in white with the look in your eyes
Knew you’d love me forever
Before I ever knew better
Can’t see myself back beside you
But I see nobody else
Nobody’s perfect but I’m perfectly happy to keep on
Bringing this love down off the shelf.
I’ll see you tonight in the back of my mind
When I remember your skin like I remembered it then
When you would dress me in white with the look in your eyes
Knew you’d love me forever
Before I ever knew..
Better off, I couldn’t say if I’d be better off without a love I live without anyway
Better off, oooh. Who knows? See you tonight.
Before I ever knew better

25.07.2008. =) (posted: Sunday, July 27th, 2008)

25.07.2008. friday.

Notice me
Take my hand
Why are we
Strangers when
Our love is strong
Why carry on without me?

Everytime I try to fly
I fall without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, it’s haunting me
I guess I need you baby
I make believe
That you are here
It’s the only way
I see clear
What have I done
You seem to move on easy
And everytime I try to fly
I fall without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, you’re haunting me
I guess I need you baby
I may have made it rain
Please forgive me
My weakness caused you pain
And this song is my sorry
Ohhhh
At night I pray
That soon your face
Will fade away
And everytime I try to fly
I fall without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, you’re haunting me
I guess I need you baby

song of the night: britney spears’ everytime. haha.

we pulled another all nighter last friday night. left the office around 7:30 and drove to the afp camp to box. i fell asleep for a few minutes in the car. when i woke up britney spears’ everytime was playing. so i sang along and the song got stuck in my head. sang it while we were gearing up, and eventually pet and ono were singing along. hihi. i haven’t boxed / exercised in about 2 weeks and my muscles hurt the day after. we were supposed to meet ninja (lolo) later in the night, but it was still early so we decided to grab some dinner at mcdo in fort bonifacio. the one near crepes & cream as mich was bugging us to try it. i ordered the value meal with chicken and spaghetti, ono ordered something i can’t remember and mich just ate cereal and milk and her fruits. pet on a diet. tsss. after dinner we went to crepes and cream where i tried the mango mania (huge crepe with ice cream and mango bits and cream and nuts (pecans i think). yum yum), ono got a pork floss cheesy omellet, and pet couldn’t decide what to get. we got one of those vip card things that give you a free crepe after you buy 6. we have 2 stamps now. yay. i was the last to finish eating. i was still full from dinner and i had to force eat the rest of the crepe. sayang eh. hehe. drove to select to hangout while waiting for lolo’s text. talked, sang to old songs. sang to everytime again. talked about deacon frost. hihi.

we met lolo in bonifacio high street, near krispy kreme. pet kept on saying she wanted a donut. we told her to go buy herself one. but she wanted someone to eat with her. ono was willing if pet paid, but pet wasn’t willing to pay for him. haha.
kwento with lolo about the ‘traumatizing experience’ earlier in the night involving bump and grind dancing. kwento about random stuff. kwento about plans. 



then we decided to hang out at ono’s condo for the rest of the night and watch dvds. i rode with lolo and we talked about ‘family’ stuff. we watched stardust first. lolo already saw it and fell asleep. it wasn’t ono’s first time either. he said the movie inspired him to write when he first saw it. pet and i got kilig, or maybe we were just too bangag. hihi. but it was good. pet thought tristan was hot. i was bangag from lack of sleep. 


the sky was already beginning to light up. we opted for a second movie: juno. it was niiiice. :) we loved the sarcasm and the wit. there was a part where the dvd sort of malfunctioned and skipped the part where juno’s dad was giving her advice on love. luckily, i kept shari’s text message quote of the line and we just passed the cellphone around and proceeded with the next scene. there was a part that i really liked towards the end. after juno gave birth and bleeker went to her and they just lied down together. it was niiiice. :) *kilig* haha. again, i was bangag from lack of sleep. mich and ono had ambushed me at the condo the night before and i slept around 2:30am. =/

it was sunrise when juno finished. we just kinda fell asleep on the sofa while ono was getting ready to go to tanay. waking up lolo was not easy. big surprise. ono gave her 3-in-1 barako coffee to shake off the sleep. lolo brought me home around 8am. I slept around 9am. =)

narration again. i just wanted to write things down so it’ll be easier to remember. :)
