Imperfections. Differences. Conflicts. Tranquillity. Ulit.

From my point of view, it all started with *imperfections. I read somewhere, "Nobody can be perfect, but only in grammar". Fine! The point is, show me someone who's perfect(generally), and i'll tell you how to stop time. Malabo ung example, pero sana na-getz mu.
Moving on, because of imperfections, follows *differences. I believe someone told me that there are only 7 or 9 types of people. And once you know them, it's like you already knew the whole world. Sarap siguro nun! Hhhmmm.. Let me check.. I just came earlier this morning from a slumber party. Nahh! Sosyal ung term e! Erase. Last night me and my college buddies got the chance to hang-out again. We drank, and as being me, after my third shot of that freakin' Generoso, i now have fill-in-the-blanks memory. It's ok because thats what we do. When we drink, we stay in the place until we are sober. Then I woke up this morning with a smile when i heard one of my tropa greeted my another tropa's(the owner) mother, "Tita good morning po!", and got a reply with a jolly voice, "magandang umaga mga lasenggo!". Haha. Wait, getting back to different types of people.. From college, there is, a classmate who hates ROTC but now a 2nd Lieutenant in Philippine Army. A Cumlaude who now works at the government(or dati "cum"-laude!wahaha!Fine, hindi na namin iku-kwento kung sino namunas!Peace!). A genius who now teaches in a public school along with old teachers(yikes!). A happy go lucky who recently quits his job(but still happy). A late bloomer kamote who, now, is still a kamote(saket naman nun!). A grumpy, lakas trip, at the same time a cool dude as a supervisor of a department store now. From competitive in sports to a bank employee. A colleague who took accountancy who now works as a, well asa ka pa, an accountant in a mall. Hhhmmm.. Wait, sa work naman! There i have, jolly persons, smart, creative, witty, talkative, silent(but deadly parang utot!), bullies, chismosa, a person who takes everything seriously at nagpapa-apekto sa chismis(sana ok lang sya ngaun), playing safe, may sariling mundo, walang pake-alam, may pake-alam, paki-alamero, palikero(palengkero, panadero, pasahero, sirkero, bosero, kaskasero, motorsiklo, ibang siglo, lolo, lolo mo!), may tao na puno ng buhay, walang kabuhay-buhay, mababaliw ka sa buhay(pero astig un tao na tinutukoy ko na un!), buhay na buhay, at nawalan ng buhay(kapag friday night, dahil sa sobrang O.T.! Wahaha!). A basta! Marami talgang klase ng tao! We are all different in our own litte ways.
Now from differences, there comes *conflicts(eto na exciting na!). It's inevitable for us as human beings. So kagulo na. From what i understand in a part of Christian Bible, There was a time when we only had one language. Once there was a tower built, it's aim; to reach the sun. It's name; "Torre ni Babel"(Hoy mga bakla shaddap! Hindi ito yung iniisip nyo! Mga gaga!). But, the Creator(of the universe), kind of didn't like the idea. So what he did was, from being one, the peoples language was changed and became different from one another. There was conflict. Tower of Babel fell down. Time warping, the first world war has already happened, and then came the second. And now who knows when might be the third occur.
Now it's december 2008. I had a quite good november, but december, i'm starting to hate it. I really don't know why. Maybe because of the conflicts at work(rush rush rush, for the vacation), panic buying, crowded malls and streets, gift thinking for inaanaks(considering i don't do gifts). But I love the weather. Until the Priest's homily from the Mass held in our office just before the Christmas party last friday made me realize something. I don't know exactly what he said, but he mention something in relation with our heart. And once you let(accept) "that something", you'll know it(feel it). I hope everybody knows the true meaning and feel the spirit of Christmas. And I also hope not only for this season. Ok! At the end of the day, there will always be, one way or another, peace and *tranquillity.
It all boils down to this, as history repeats itself, as there was a boy and a girl, if there's a man there's a woman beside him, if there's a will there's a way, good and evil, heroes and villains, Vilmanians and Noranians, toyota and crispa, Jack and Jill, me and you(naks!), lightning and thunder, tokwa't baboy, dinuguan at puto(gutom ka na naman!?), spaghetti and cheese(lactose. i'll pass for now). And so as, "Night and Day". It will all happen again tomorrow. Are you ready? *Ulit.

Buhos ka ulan...

..aking mundo'y lunuring tuluyan..-eheads
was played on the public jeepney we we're riding, that time when we have the same rain as now and probably the same time, when classes were cancelled due to storm signal # 2. Since it was highschool, me and my classmates(and schoolmates), would always hangout to someones house afterclass just to, well you know, chill!(naks!). I remembered when we got to a schoolmates house, she said, "O, relax lang kayo ha! Feel at home!", as she sit on the couch, grab the T.V. remote control, and turn it on. Her brother, who was a C.A.T. officer(they are on the same school level by the way), just go and find something to do in the house. As for me, i just, hhmmm, wala lang! My girlfriend, that time, cut my fingernails, never knowing she was cutting them too short they would bleed(ouch!). One of my schoolmate, who was also a C.A.T. officer, just go straight to the kitchen and find something to eat, for himself(partida hindi nya bahay un ah!). The rain ceases for a moment, we go outside to buy bread on the nearest bakery. I believe it was that time when i first had the favoritism for "ensemada" and "spanish bread". I wonder if that bakery is still open up to now. Syete! dapat kasi nag-almusal muna ako bago pumasok sa work! puro pagkain tuloy naiisip ko!(lagi naman e!)

Ulam! Alam! Hamog!

Yesterday, when I came back from Batangas, and Cavite as well, I spend the whole afternoon sleeping. Then when I woke up at around 5pm, I just lie down on the bed, then got up to eat, then lie down again, then sleep again for the next day's work. I just felt so lazy. Feeling ko para akong baboy na pinapataba na malapit nang katayin! Maybe the reason was when I said that we can catch fish and crabs in Batangas, but, I got colds instead during the last night of stay, where we had dinner infront of a bonfire by the bay.(*sniff). It was a very very relaxing 4 days & 3 nights vacation, especially, one mid morning, i just lie down(and lie face down occasionally) by the bay, underneath a semi-cloud-covered sun, closed eyes partially waiting for the rain(because I heard there was a storm somewhere), feeling the fused heat of the sun and sand, mix with a cool breeze of air, and listen to the relaxing wave of water like a lullaby. Then, when I open my eyes, I had a red-blue-ish vision, look to the seemingly endless line where the sea and sky meet, inhale a deep fresh salty air, exhale, then ask myself, "Ano kayang masarap makain ngayon?!". Solve! Also, I did mention that we will be going to Lian, Batangas. But up until now, i'm still wondering how did i knew about the place, wherein, it was my first time to be there! The place that I was referring to before, was supposed to be La-Iya, Batangas. Demmet! Anyway, also during my stay, I spoke to this middle aged Batangeña, and told me about an old lady that she came across the other day, where she described her(wearing a "Batangeño Accent") as, "Aba e! ka-nuknukan rin pal-a ng bingi yu-on!" and continued with the story. As she pass by this old lady, as a courtesy, she excuses herself and said(still in "Batangeño Accent"), "..'Nay! Makikira-an 'pow!..". But, she was shocked as the old lady replied to her(with ofcourse, "Batangeño Accent"), "Wala kaming ulam!".
