Pathetic attempt at poetry

No. I'm not looking for love.
Call me selfish.
I am.
I don't wanna fall in love.
Not yet, not so soon.

Dahil ayoko ko nang mag emo.
Di bale nang nag-iisa.
May ka-holding hands? Hindi ako naiingit.
May kahalikan? Hindi ako naiingit.
May kayakap? Hindi ako naiingit.
PDA? Hindi ako naiingit.

Masaya akong single.

Doesn't make sense? Sorry na, hindi ako makata.
Walang rhyme, wala lang. hehehe.


Got this tag from ice. Here’s the rule:
...
1. Write a poem or an inspiring line based on a photo of your choice. This photo can be your own, or someone else’s. (If the picture is not yours, please ask permission from the owner when you post it, or better yet, provide only the link to the picture that inspired you, without posting it.)
...
2. Your poem or inspiring line may be of any length, and any genre. It can be humorous, sentimental, heart-warming, whatever. You may write in Ilokano, English or Filipino.
...
3. Post your inspiring line in your blog and in the comment section of this page (or just a link to your post so we could go and check it there). For poetry submissions, please indicate if you wish your piece to be posted in Bilingual Pen as an article submission.
...
4. The goal of this game is to get us to write, and express our thoughts and emotions.

Inspired!

Getting inspired. Its like falling in love. It just happens. You can't control it. You can't force yourself to get inspired by anyone neither could you teach yourself not to be inspired by someone.
Anyone could be an inspiration; family, friends, people who doesn't even know you (but who you know) could inspire you.

And it's not necessarily something romantic.

If people inspire us, should we tell them?

F.R.I.E.N.D.S

Next to my family, I value my friends more than anything else.

It's amazing how friendship is kept through the years, despite the differences, the odds. That's when you know, it's indeed real.

hot choco: sweet

Shy, wallflower, silent, snub. That's how my friends describe me. A sheep who could in a snap turn into a bull.

They're right. I could be the nicest person on earth and depends on how you treat me, I could be the exact opposite. And my friends know that. And they know that I know that. I am not the kind who would go around people I don't like, pretending to be nice when in fact I am not.

And no matter how bad I could get sometimes, they accept me. Just like that. I just thought I am so lucky for having them as friends, maybe limited in number but are giving me unlimited love and support. They may not tolerate my behavior all the time but in the end, they're there for me, staying with me... unconditionally.

Survivor what?!

I've heard Survivor Philippines has started.

I'm confused. Hindi pala sa Pilipinas ginawa yun? Pero bakit Survivor Philippines ang title?

Hindi ba dapat Survivor+location and title? Parang Survivor Palau, Survivor China, etc. etc. kasi dun kinunanan mga episodes.

Pero yung local copycat, Survivor Philippines daw pero kahit isang isla sa Pilipinas hindi naman ata nakita.


Amf! La lang.


(Nag-complain di naman nanonood.)

Blessings? Lemme count...

Just got back from a 5-day absence, which (due to some reasons) turned out to be a 2-day rest day, 1 vacation leave and 2 AWOLs. That may entitle me to a 2-3 days suspension, which sounds more like a vacation to me.

For someone who's tired with what he's doing, I Just realized that I'm not afraid to lose my job.


Once again my friend gave me this advise; mahirap maghanap ng trabaho, andami dyan gagawin lahat magkawork lang, mahirap walang work...pasok na!

I dragged myself to the office... and there came their birthday surprise!



That was touching.

I just realized, I have to thank God for the blessings!

After twenty something years, I finally got a cake on my birthday.

Thanks to Joy and May.
