I CAN TEACH YOU HOW TO LIE

once upon a time . . .
there lived a princess who met a frog whom she hoped was a prince under a curse. . .

but then she found out that the frog was nothing more than a helpless, lowlife, smelly, slimy creature. . .
a stupid frog and nothing more.
eew.
T H E E N D .
PS: Liars go to hell.
May God bless you,.. you poor soul.

letters to be sent.

messages received!

dear sailor. . .

if you want to drift away, let me be the one to fix your bags. i'll even set your sail and let the wind guide you towards where you want to go. . . thenleave and have the time of your life. . . continue to be happy and slowly disappear in the horizon as i look back on the oh so few memories. . . but rest assured that i will be smiling as you depart. sulking is not an option anymore. . . i know our paths will cross every now and then. but only fate can really tell. . i leave everything to the ocean now. but before you go, let me kiss you thanks.



***

dear pilot. . .

the ride was unforgettable. though the end of the flight was earlier than expected, the trip was worth it. thank you for teaching me how to fly. it's nice to keep in touch. you are a very reliable friend. till your next flight! though that will be the time i win our bet.


***

dear spy. . .

you are indeed suave. i do not know yet of your true identity but you do know how to smoothen out creases with ease. you deceive with your smile and anybody can fall for it. but you are not to be meddled with. your superiors are to be repsected rest assured of that. . . though it was enjoyable to meet you. who knows, we might meet anytime by chance. your country isn't too far away.

***

dear soldier. . .

should you decide to open your eyes and your heart, i promise to nurture the wounds that the battles have left upon you.. you need not raise your shield anymore for this time i will be the one to protect you but only if you allow me to. . . but for years, i have silently been watching you battle them all.. waiting for you to turn to me in your exhaustion and seek solace in my arms. i have always been an ally but you never knew that i was willing to face bullets for you until only a few telegrams ago. if only . . .

A TRIBUTE TO THE “ PARTY ANIMALS ”



*play music*

“Basta’t tayo’y magkasama, laging mayro’ng umagang kayganda, pagsikat ng araw may dalang liwanag.. sa ating umaga.. woooooohh…. HAHARAPIN NATIN!

*stop music*

bukod pa man sa YMCA (with actions please), para saken iyan na ata ang theme song ng party animals.. inaawit kasi namin yan noong first term sa mga panahong uwian na at wala kaming masakyang bus pauwi ng Las Piñas nina Martin, Marcia at Jino. Pero natutunan na din nina Kizia, Clarence at pati ni Jana ang awitin kapag hinihintay nila kaming makasakay. But that was a long time ago kasi ngayon, hindi na kami froshies and The Party Animalz are now entering their second year in college.

But wait.. Anu ba talaga yang “PartyAnimalz” na yan ha?? Pag kinukwento ko yan sa mga ibang friends ko, nawiwindang sila, kasi malay ba nila kung anu yung PA(shortcut ito) diba?.. Well… Once upon a time, ako, si Martin at si Marcia ay umuwi sakay ng mahiwagang bus. As usual medyo nakakaantok sa bus kaya ang tanging solusyon ay magkulitan at magkwentuhan. Dito umandar na naman ang kapilyuhan namin dahil napagtripan naming gawan ng animal counterparts ang lahat ng nasa block namin.. Yung iba dahil kamukha nila yung counterparts nila(baaad), yung iba dahil kaugali nila in a certain way(hehe). Dito si Martin ay naging kabayo, si Marcia ay naging maya, si Janna ay naging parrot, si Clarence ay naging butiki, si Kizia ay naging sloth/penguin, ako ay naging chipmunk habang si Jino ang bukod tanging nanatiling naging tao (animal naman ang tao db? Hehe). . .at lately dumating din si mary na siya namang pusa!..



marami nang napagdaanan ang Animalz.. mula sa walang hanggang tawanan hanggang sa mangawit ang mukha.. iyakan nila clarence.. chismisan tungkol sa lahat ng tao.. love interests here and there.. mga combinations nameng friendships.. finals.. kain sa GMO.. kain sa SPS.. tambay sa sahig ng yuchengco.. jackstones.. touch ball.. intramuros (kaspil).. starcity.. cwts.. gateway.. taga-disco.. mga show sa skul.. birthday surprises.. projects.. diets na di natutuloy.. kakuriputan.. pa-xerox(photocopy! fayn).. boy-hunting at stalking(except xmpre kay martin.haha).. at kung anu ano pa!!!!. . .

ito lang ang masasabi ko sa inyong lahat!.. anu man ang mangyari. maiba man ang combinations! mapadpad man sa ibang grupo o kahit sa ibang unibersidad man, MAHAL KO KAYONG LAHAT!.. walang magbabago. tayo pa rin ang party animals.

at ngayong mag-uumpisa na ang 2nd yr naten, thank u for making my first one very memorable and lots of fun!!!. . . im always hir 4 all of u.

martin: "teka, balikan natin ang nakaraan ha..." keep in touch or else! ^_^labyu!


______________________________________

echos: di nako aasa. di nako mag-eexpect. mas masaya pag ganun. ganun naman talaga dapat. nasampal na ako sa katotohanan. hehehe... bahala ka na lang. ngiti na lang ako. ^_^ nakakapagod sumimangot eh. haha.

fuss about the da vinci code

whenever you read a book, you create a world of your own. every word becomes a part of the reality you create within your head.. characters are formed.. sceneries are built.. the mind becomes the painter, the creator, the master. . . all you have to do is. . .

i m a g i n e.


iv read "THE DA VINCI CODE" before. though i can't quite remember exactly when. it was way back during the first term. i borrowed icka's book. i remember being so engrossed with reading the book. reading it in between and even during classes, reading it while on the bus to and from school, reading it at home, in the cafeteria, even in the library. . i just loved reading it. when i finally got to finish it, just like every other book i enjoyed, i went "ayyy, tapos na?"... hehe.

when i heard that they were going to make a movie out of it, i was ecstatic! i couldn't wait for it to come out. . . so i waited. i lived my life, and i waited. . .

then..

just a few hours ago, at around 5:20pm, i found myself feeling desperate and anxious as i waited through the terrible Ayala traffic inside an FX taxi. the movie tickets that Maple and Mhakie bought were for 5:50 so i'd better hurry up or die! (hehe) when the driver told me to go down near landmark, i rushed and walked as fast as i could to get to cinema5 of glorietta.(maple was rushing me, haha). i was very thirsty too, having just finished hosting the LPEP day2 of COS and CED, so within a flash, i bought a drink and some fries then pushed my way amidst the tons of people lining up just to get to the entrance of cinema 5. then i saw mac(thanx sa treat!ayihee) and he handed me my ticket. the guard even checked me for and id to prove that im eighteen already. and in my joy, i even said that i just had my debut a few days ago. hahaha. . . . then i got in. yahuuu! and just in time too.

the movie was great!. . .i think that that pretty much sums it up. it was a very fulfilling experience to actually see the things that i visualized in my imagination. though of course since it's a book-turned-into-a-movie.. some parts of the novel got edited out. but that was expected. though the main gyst of the story was there still together with the suspense, the action and the ooooh's and aaaahhhh's.. (my imagination was still better though.haha)

i was especially happy with seeing the sceneries.. the locations.. the historical places.. i remember wishing that i could visit them someday. =)

i even tried to watch the movie pretending that i haven't read the book, and still i found it good. it was exciting and very thought-provoking. though of course let us remember that it is just FICTION. . . but i was worried for those who really haven't read the book, i hope they understood things.

anyways, let's congratulate the producers of this film because by the way it was publicized, talked and debated about and by looks of all the people who lined up just to watch it one the premier date(di lang sa g4 ah, kahet sa atc din dwa), i would safely assume that the film is a success. . . big bucks are sure to roll in. haha. people around the globe are making such a fuss about the book and the movie too. but it's not worth it. all it causes is adding more publicity for both the book and the film. so yey for the royalties! hahaha. . .

lessons:
* watch a movie. it's fun.
* be open-minded when watching books-turned-movies. movies and books are not the same!
* read books. they're fun and very fulfilling!
* make sure u arrive in time (like me. haha)
* if a labidoods is not present, bring a jacket coz its cold inside the movie house. haha
* wag masyadong damdamin ang librong ito, hindi nmn nakakasira ng faith. duh


random eklat:
* tapos na ang LPEP 2k6.. yehey. maraming salamat sa pagkakataong ibinigay. napakasaya.
* next time talaga susubukan ko na ang lrt-mrt mag-isa.. haha
* para kay . . . thanx for guiding me in the dark. literal yan ah. hahaha. . .
* martin, it was nice to see you again. ayy shit, i forgot my payong na naiwan sa inyo. damn.
* kizia, hala cge landi pa. jwk! panalo yan
* clrnce, nyc new lay-out
* maple, hello? hahaha.. jwk. sosyal tayo! =P
* mac, slamat sa chorva! wahehe..

P.S this isn't a movie review kaya di ko msyado hinimay-himay yung movie ah. haha..

Kayraming nagaganap sa buhay ng tao. Sa bawat segundong dumadaan, sa bawat pintig ng pusong nagaganap, at sa paglipas ng oras, may nangyayari, batid man natin ito o hindi…

TRIP TO DIVI.
Isa itong adventure. Kasama ang matalik kong kaibigang si Maple, kami ay naglakbay sa magulo ngunit masayang mundo ng Divisoria. Tingin dito, sukat doon.. Tawad dito, bili doon.. Kung marami ba kaming pera edi sako-sako na sana ang nabili namin doon. Hehehe.. Masarap sa kinainan naming tindahan ng dimsum. Sulit sa 47php ang dimsum plus kanin! Pagkatapos ay dumayo pa kami ng R.P at deretso na sa salon. Wahahahaha.. =P Habang nakikinig kay Sarah Geronimo na nagpeperform sa ibabang floor, ako ay naupo silya ng salon at nagmuni-muni. . .

WORLD TRADE FOOD TRIP.

LPEP day1 ng CLA noon. Pumunta akong DLSU ng maaga kasabay si Jojo at ang new froshie na si Elaine(yehey). Nag-feeling LAMB(LaSallian Ambassador) kay Elaine at sa kanyang mga kaibigan tapos tumungo na sa Teresa Yuchengco Auditorium para tumulong sa GMG(Green Media Group). Matapos ang palabas ay balitaktakan na kasama ang GMG. Maraming salamat kay Marion(aka Tito Boy) sa mga tawanan at masasayang kwento…Tumungo ako ng World Trade Center sa gitna ng ulan upang tagpuin si Maple at Mac. Dun na nagsimula ang napakasayang food trip! ! ! ! ! Matapos ang pagkain ng sangkatutak na kung anu-ano, isa lang ang siguradong patutunguhan nito... banyo! . . . bwahahaha. . . .=P

DEBUT NI KIM.
Prior to the party itself, i met up with kim and afew of her friends para mag-jam.. Kakanta daw kasi ako sa debut niya. . . New friends(cna jp, ted etc...)!! Asteg. Then I had my first trip to Ruins(isang mala-tyanggeng place sa Parañaque).. yehey!. . umuulan sa araw ng party. este bumabagyo pala!.. nag-host pa me ng LPEP day2 bago un. pero tumuloy ako kina martin at matapos magbonding at mag-ayusan ng buhok(haha) ay hinatid na kami patungong Island Cove.. nakakatuwang makita muli ang ilan sa LR19(blockmates).. ang kukulit at ang gaganda ng porma nila(go malia)!. . .nakakatuwa. though kami lng ni martin ang party animals don. awww... pero masaya yung party. but the best thing about it is... . a simple txt i got at the end. =)

LPEP.
Masaya maging host.. it's my passion. it's what i love to do. it's what i want to do. of course i have tons to learn and improve on. but since i'm enjoying myself, it's fun. pag hindi ako host, umeepal ako sa prod people. helping if i can. haha.. congrats nga pla kay ate kizia! u did a great job! for a first timer, yahung yahu! masaya maging bahagi ng LPEP(orientation program for frohies). parang kahapon lang nung frosh ako at inaalisa ko ang mga bumubuo sa programang pinapanood ko. pero ngayon bahagi na ako nung pinanood at kinamanghaan ko lang dati.. asteg.

MOTHERS' DAY.
Bakit naubusan ng cake ang Red Ribbon at Goldilocks??? mali ito. inubusan nila ako. hehehe.. malay ko bang pare-pareho kami ng gustong bilhin ng buong sambayanan??.. hahaha.... kaya ice cream na lang ang binili ko para kay madir. hehehe... nakita ko cna maple sa church.. after ko bumili ng ice cream ay treat kami nina Lola sa Yellowcab.. Grabe. Gourmet Garden + Meatlovers b un? = sandwich na over sa laki at bigat sa tyan!.. hahahaha... takaw nmen ni maple...



. . . so many things happen. but it's important to keep the memories, the lessons and realizations along the way. . .
