welcome back!

Dad flew to Zamboanga last friday (October 9, 2009) before he went, he told me to sleep in their room so mom would have someone to be with during the night. My mom's first reaction upon hearing it was a little negative because she knew that I often go in and out of the room and she doesn't like it. But still, I decided to sleep with her in their room. For those five nights that I was there, I really tried to minimize my going in and out of the room because she might get irritated. But it was fun though, atleast I was able to spend time with mom even if all we did was just watching TV and share insights about the housemates in PBB. I treasure those moments because I know I am already getting old and I might not have those moments with her anytime soon.
Back to dad! So he arrived this morning at around 8:30 am. His arrival woke me up but it didn't make me get up. After a few minutes of lying down in the bed (awake) I finally got up and found a box full of canned goods and another box full of instant coffee bags and apollo (as usual). Then I went out of the room and joined mom and dad for breakfast even though all I did was watch them eat. After that, I went into the kitchen inside the house and found another box with a lot of sea food inside. Actually, I was already expecting to see it because the sea food in Zamboanga are really good and cheap!:D Then after a while, dad told me to open the bagoong he bought from Alavar and I asked the house helper to get me a mango from the tree we have so that we can eat it. My dichi (second elder sister) went in and joined me in eating the mangoes. Then after all these things happened, everything went back to normal. Dad went into their room and tried to get some sleep and after a while went out again to fix my achi's (eldest sister) car because something's wrong with the car's starter and I also heard from the house helper that mom is going to the market at around 2pm. And as for me, I went to school at around 2pm to meet with my classmates for our techno project but we ended up celebrating Bruce's birthday! belated happy birthday Bruce!:p

smokey's

Yesterday I went home early because I wanted to watch PBB Uber it was about 5pm when I got home and upon my arrival my mom was about to go to victoria because she needed to buy something there. Then suddenly shoti (younger brother) asked mom to buy him a Lay's a potato chip snack upon hearing it I suddenly prompted and said I wanted a Potato Corner Fries but it seemed like mom didn't know what it is or where so buy it so I told her to buy me a Smokey's footlong hotdog instead(it's been years since I had one). While mom was out I waited patiently for her at home while watching TV. When they arrived, I hurriedly went at the back of the house to check and see if she really bought me one. Sad to say, I didn't get my request instead she told me to bring the bag of groceries at home. I was really disappointed because I really waited for my hotdog.:( While we were in the room, she told me to get the bag of Cheetos and hide it from shoti because he might get it and eat it all up. Soon then I realized that she bought me a bag of Cheetos instead of Smokey's hotdog because she knew I also liked it. I was somehow happy that she bought something for me after all.. thanks MOM!:D

Gotta Be Somebody

This time I wonder what it feels like
To find the one in this life
The one we all dream of
But dreams just aren't enough
So I´ll be waiting for the real thing.
I'll know it by the feeling.
The moment when we´re meeting
will play out like a scene straight off the silver screen
So I`ll be holdin’ my own breath
Right up to the end
Until that moment when
I find the one that I'll spend forever with

`Cause nobody wants to be the last one there.
'Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Someone to love with my life in their hands.
There`s gotta be somebody for me like that.

`Cause nobody wants to do it on their own
And everyone wants to know they´re not alone.
There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere.
There`s gotta be somebody for me out there.

Tonight, out on the street out in the moonlight
And dammit this feels too right
It´s just like Déjà Vu
Me standin’ here with you
So I´ll be holdin`my own breath
Could this be the end?
Is it that moment when
I find the one that I'll spend forever with?

‘Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
'Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Someone to love with my life in their hands.
There´s gotta be somebody for me like that.

`Cause nobody wants to do it on their own
And everyone wants to know they´re not alone.
There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There`s gotta be somebody for me out there.

You can´t give up!
Lookin´ for that diamond in the rough
You never know but when it shows up
Make sure you´re holdin` on
‘Cause it could be the one, the one you´re waiting on

‘Cause nobody wants to be the last one there.
And everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Someone to love with my life in their hands.
There has gotta be somebody for me
Ohhhhhh.


Nobody wants to do it on their own
And everyone wants to know they´re not alone.
Is there somebody else that feels the same somewhere?
There`s gotta be somebody for me out there.

Nobody wants to be the last one there
'Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares.
Is there somebody else that feels the same somewhere?
There has gotta be somebody for me out there.

a song by Nickelback entitled : Gotta Be Somebody


emo? no, am not!:p i just find the message of the song true and in a way relevant to my life. I believe if not all, most individual longs to have that someone whom they believe is the one created/destined/meant for them. We long to find this person not just because we need someone to be with like a companion or a friend but more than that, I believe we long to have this person because we long to have someone to share our love with. I can truly attest to that! There were times in my life that I was happy or was able to achieve something. Yes! I should be happy and grateful for my achievements but I reached a point where in I realized that I had no one to share my happiness with. Of course I have friends and family around me but having that special someone would probably make things better.

Wait! Please don't get me wrong. I'm still not ready nor looking for that someone yet!!:p I just wrote this for blog's sake:D

dahil ako'y kanilang kinukulit

I have been reading my friend Jenny's blog for quite some time and I can say that I had fun reading it. Reading her blog actually pushed me into making my own. I truly admire her gift of being able to express clearly her thoughts and feelings through words.
As for me, I am confident that I am not talented in that area. I actually find it hard to express my feelings which is probably why people view me as a reserved person. I rarely tell people how I feel. Most of the time, I just express my thoughts through actions and hope that others are sensitive enough to know how I feel. I can truly say that I am quite a complicated person and I can honestly say that I keep a lot of things to myself. OK! enough about me!:p

WELL, as for my another friend Kring, I read her blog a few moments ago and I can truly say that she's quite a writer as well. Her poem (I presume that it was a poem) was good.:D I have always been proud of her. Her achievements in life I can truly say is something that she earned through her hard work and she deserve every applause she gets from the people.

These two girls were the ones who pushed me into writing this blog. They made me feel compelled to write a blog for the reason that they have their blogspots (at their FREE WILL). Quite a deal huh? Not only that, they also instructed me to write this in english, not in bisaya nor in filipino. And so please bear with me if you find it hard to understand what I am trying to say because I have never been a good writer nor an expert in english. Nevertheless I tried!:p
