June 25,2005-Tuwing Umuulan at Kapiling ka (Not a Love Story)

Napapadalas ang bonding namin ni meann lately. Itong week na ata na ito 3 beses kaming nagkita. At sa tuwing nagkikita kami aba, for some strange reason, laging umuulan! At syempre kagabi yung pinakamalakas yung ulan ahehehe.La lang nakakatuwa lang isipin na nagagawa pa rin namin yung ginagawa namin back in college na laging nagdidinner tapos kwentuhan lang na umaabot ng 2 oras. tapos kung magkwentuhan parang sila lang ang tao sa lugar na iyon.

So kwento ko lang ang mga bloopers namin ni meann kagabiSa jollibee..kung magkwentuhan parang sobrang layo ng kausap.

Sa Shangri-la parang nawawalang mga bata in search of magandang cellphone, tho, hinahanap talaga namin ang nokia store dun pero mukhang wala ata hehehe.

Famous lines:

"malandi ba ako?seryoso?"
"ngayong ka lang kasi nakakita ng 'toot' mo na 'toot' ka!"

July 21, 2005 - Your O

Naranasan nyo na ba na sobrang matawa sa isang bagay and then after 20 minutes eh hindi pa rin kayo makaget over dahil dun?

Ganyan nangyari sa akin last tuesday. Nag-uusap kami ni meann sa ym tapos napag-usapan namin yung crush nya na dinedeny nya pero in reality crush nya talaga yung guy. So ayun tawa ako ng tawa tapos nung paalis na ako para imeet sya sa edsa central, di pa rin ako makaget over hanggang bago ako makasakay sa mrt nangingiti pa rin ako, mukha akong engot actually dahil di ko mapigilan mangiti.

So nung nagkita na kami ni Meann syempre kwentuhan at tawanan ever and then nung bandang last part na ng kwentuhan namin ayun biglang naging heavy ang topic namin...I'm really blessed to have a friend like her.

Eksenang EPS:
Part 1: The Lait duo strikes
Meann: Je dito na tayo sa bridge dumaan papuntang edsa central"
Me:Wow di naman masyadong masikip dito (referring to the stairs)
Me mga highschool student na bumababa
girl daw:I say a little LETTER to you
Boy:UUY!
Nagkatingin kami ni meann
Je:Tama ba yung pagkakarinig ko?I say a little letter to you?
Meann: OO nga
Je and Meann:WAHAHAHAHA

So figure it out sino ang mas tanga ang babae (daw) na kumanta ng maling lyrics ng SAY A LITTLE PRAYER o yung lalaking nagreact ng UUUY!?ahehhee

Part 2: The lait duo strikes again
Habang pumapasok sa edsa central
Je:di naman masyadong lax ang security nila
Meann:Pag me bomba ka dito ka dadaan pag wala sa baba
Je and Meann:WAHAHAHA

Part 3:Jollibee usual events
Pag kumakain kami ni meann sa jollibee may dalawang bagay na usual na nangyayari
1:laging may langaw sa paligid namin
2:Habang nasa kasarapan ng kwentuhan at tawanan may magiinterrupt sa amin, yung una nagsurvey at ang recent nagbigay ng calling card if ever interested sa business..
Warning: Very rude ang maginterrupt ng mga tao habang nasa kasarapan ng kwentuhan at tawanan! Hmmp

July 28, 2005 - The Curse of the Bee

As usual bonding uli kami ni Meann. The difference is we were not ourselves yesterday. Parehong nasa low ang energy level namin before we meet pero nung nagkita na kami walang katapusang kwentuhan at tawanan ang nangyari at guess where kung saan kami nagkita, sa aming paboritong Jollibee. Nakakatuwa na kahit maghapon na kaming magka-ym eh hindi pa rin kami nauubusan ng kwento ni Meann. Like yung usapan naman from problems to love to lovelife to panlalait to problems to bitterness kasi walang natanggap na something from the admirer basta di kami nauubusan ng kwento. I'm just hoping na di kami magsawa sa routine namin.

Sa Jollibee ever since na kumain kami dun hindi pa nabbreak ang mga sumusunod na pangyayari:
1.) May Langaw lagi sa table namin
2.) Sa kasarapan ng kwentuhan at tawanan laging may nag-iinterrupt lintek
3.) Ang pantog ni Meann ang aming signal para umuwi na ("Je uwi na tayo naiihi na ako")

August 18,2005 - Singles Night Out Ep1 & Ep2

THE LAIT DUO STRIKES AGAIN
Habang nasa jeep kami may eksenang ganito:
coño girl: I have a joke. Anong sinasabi ng fish na mamatay na (she was saying this with a loud voice)
coño girlfriend:Ano?
coño girl: I'm Daeng! Ahahaha (Imagine Kris Aquino)

few minutes later
coño girl: Ok bye na (bumbaba na sya with her guy friend)
coño girlfriend suddenly realized that nasa kanya pala yung wallet ng kanyang friend, mega naglean sya para makita sya nung friend nya na nakababa na at mega smile, while waving the wallet and mega pacute

few more minutes later nasa mrt station na kami
Me: Meann yung....
So katakut takot na panlalait na naman ang inabot ng mga coño girls sa aming dalawa ni Meann.Wahehehe

September 9,2005 - Lait Duo Goes to Shangri-La

We choose no place to do our thing

The other day, Meann and I ate at Wendy's Shang. It some kind of a food court so we can observe many people who are also eating at the place.

Lait 1
Me: Ang cute nung nakagreen
Meann:Kamukha sya ni Dennis Trillo pag nakaside view
Me: Ay may kasama, cute din na guy.baka bading
Meann:Pwede

Lait 2
Me:Bakit kailangan pang iba ang tawag sa upsize at biggie size?Ang hirap tuloy dalawa pa yung sasabihin
Meann:Nyak pareho lang ng prize ang tanga.

Lait 3
Me:Yak meann tignan mo yung guy o, me kasamang matandang bading.Cute pa naman yung guy.Yak Meann parang binubugaw kasi yung may dumating pang isa pang matandang bading.
Meann:Asan?
Me:Ayun o nakita mo yung nakagreen?sa kanan
Meann:Yung nakabrown?
Me:Asan nakabrown.
Meann:grabe Je, chuva nga yan kasi sya pa umoorder tas paisa isa pa.Ano ba yan walang pinipling lugar
Me:Grabe Meann hindi sya pangganyan
Meann:Nasusuka na ako
Me:Tapos o magkakamag-anak lang pala sila. Marurumi lang pala isip natin!Me and Meann:WAHAHAHAHA

Melting Snow

Spring is really here.

Snow are starting to melt. Temperature is starting to rise. The new season is here.

Last night, I had a dream, I flew back in the Philippines without my family's knowledge. I went back to work at Starcom and I live my usual life back there. Then I came back to my senses. I'm still at my bed, here at Canada.

I then realized some things. How can I start living my life here if I'm stil attached to the life that I left behind? All I do is rant about not liking it here and the passion for me to go home, back in the Philippines. There is nothing more that I can do. I'm here, literally stuck in here. How passionate I might be, there is no way that I can go back right now, just for now. I just need to accept the fact that I'm here and all I can do is to live my life here. Part of that, is letting go of my past. Letting go of the life that I used to have. So maybe I might not communicate with some people from my past for now, so that I can live my life here. So as early as now, I apologize to those people who will send an email, I might not reply to some of you for now. I really just need to do this.

Like the snow that is slowly melting, I'm letting go..

RANDOM SHITS:

-> Even before, I find myself as an avid viewer of the Ellen Degeneres Show. Whenever I had the chance to watch it, I watched the show. Right now, I'm a big fan of Ellen. I even watched her old sitcom Ellen. I really find her funny. I guess her talk show is the only american talk show that I watched because of Ellen. I mean I usually find myself absorbed with Ellen's blabbering even if sometimes it is nonesense but funny. Unlike Maury or Oprah(sometimes..uhm I rarely watched this) that I watched the show because of the topics on that episodes. Ellen is also not pretentious unlike uhm well..Tyra Banks in the Tyra Banks Show. hehehe.

-> I've watched My Bestfriend's Wedding (again) yesterday, wala lang I just can't get tired of the movie.

-> I've finally watched Legally Blonde last friday, I have seen the sequel but I never got the chance to watch the first one until last friday.

-> I still don't understand why people in the Maury show made an extra effort to go to the show just to humiliate themselves. I mean ok I understand the paternity and lie detector test, its quite expensive but to go to the show just to reveal a secret, like cheating or being a prostitute and stuff? I mean can't you just talk it over in the privacy of their own home? Maybe its for fame and I guess some dollars.

-> I'm quite happy that Meann and I are still in contact thru email almost everyday. Two weeks na Meann! ahahaha.

Just When I Needed You Most

And you were there.

Its like you knew that I needed you. You just came up popping on my messenger window.

Funny thing is I just finished replying on your mail.

You know what to say and yes, it lifted up my spirits.

Thank you.

Thank you for saving me.

Of Anxieties and Waiting

These two weren't supposed to mix.





I just hate it having to wait and be nervous on the same time.





I just hope everything is ok... I mean everything.

*****

Just want to share picture of me and my dear friend Rae.
My First ever Neo print hehehe.

Day 5

I still haven't got a decent sleep. In my 5 days stay here, my average sleep per day is approximately 4 hours and that was not during night time. Still have jet lag. I hope I can adjust with the timezone ASAP. It is really killing me staying awake during the wee hours of the night.

I'm missing Filipino shows, especially noontime variety shows. Unfortunately, we don't have TFC in our house. Although there are a lot of shows to choose from it is not the same as Filipino tv shows. Its either movies or sitcoms or old soaps or game shows. I miss watching live tv shows, I think the only live tv show here is the news. Although it amazed me that in one channel they are showing uncensored movies, aka R18, in the wee hours of the night. Not much censorship here unlike in the Philippines. Although its not X-Rated, but close. Hehehe.

Surprisingly, having an Savings Account here is not as hard as in the Philippines. We just got our ATM card earlier today. Although it still confused me what's the difference between a Credit Union and a Bank. I got an account in a Credit Union.

I really need to get a decent sleep...

Like Eating Ice Cream On A Winter Season

And yes, I did that. I ate ice cream while its freaking cold here.

It is still hard for me adjusting here especially my sleeping habits. Tulog ako sa umaga, gising sa gabi. Adik hehehe. Medyo hindi pa kasi adjusted ang biological clock ko. They called it jet lag. Nakakainis na nga minsan eh. Like yesterday, the firt time I saw flurries (in tagalog umaambon ng nyebe, hehehe), tinamaan ako ng matinding antok! So hindi ko sya masyadong naenjoy ng matagal kasi natulog ako. Pero di bale may snow fall naman bukas. Sana makakita ako ng snow flakes hihihi!

I already miss my friends sa Philippines. I actually miss Philippines already. Ang aga kong mahome sick. Siguro dahil hindi rin ako lumalabas dito.Sigh...

Firsts

The past two or three days had been full of firsts..

My First Airplane ride:

One of my childhood dreams is to ride an airplane. Actually it was one of mode of transportation that I haven't tried yet. So going to Canada will require me to ride an airplane thus dream come true. I was going to ride a plane not once but thrice. Since we have two connecting fligts, first is from Manila to Hongkong then Hongkong to Vancouver and finally, Vancouver to Winnipeg.

My experience wasn't actually a superb but its not tragic also. I just didn't enjoy the entire thing. A defective seat, looooong airport walks (nothing beats Hongkong Airport so far for me!), a bumpy ride, nausea, gas pains, not-so-delicious airplane meal, nose bleed, and delayed flight (4 hours delay!!!).

As I said it was not a tragic one too. I got window seat, they served Hagen-Daz ice cream, the movie selections on the plane was good (Dream Girls was one of the movies you can choose to watch but I settled for Happy Feet since the domestic flight from Vancouver to Winnipeg is only 2 hours and 40 minutes), and a complimentary head set.

My First Taste of Canada:SNOW!

Yup the moment I stepped out of Winnipeg Airport I immediately felt the chill. It's like entering a freezer. Sobrang lamig and muntik ko ng hindi kayanin. Snow are everywhere. Although I want to experice snow falling from the sky.

Even when you were inside your house it is still cold, mind you may heater na yun. Pag binubuksan nga yung door eh para kang nagbukas ng ref.

Winnipeg is way different from Philippines. Actually, it is how I imagine Canada. Yung parang napapanood mo sa movies or sa foreign TV shows ganun yung dating. Yesterday, pumunta rin kami sa downtown (kung baga sa metro manila ito yung makati) para asikasuhin yung SIN and Health Card number namin sobrang ganda, I mean, no traffic tas meron talagang metro kung magpapark ka sa tabi ng kalasada. Kaso sobrang lamig nung naglakad kami lalo na pag humahangin.

Sana kayanin ko ang life dito...

The Last Goodbye for Now.

"There are places I remember, all my life, and some have changed.
Some forever not for better, some had gone and some remain.
Though I know I'll never ever lose affection to people and place that went before
I know I'll oftern stop and think about them..
In my life, I love them all.."

These past two weeks were full of despididas and goodbyes. And it really sad that I'm leaving special people behind...

Despedida from Berks at A Venetto at Glorietta. Its quite sad that Zel was not there. She's one of my closest pa naman.

Then the despidida from Starcom, I really appreciated the video na ginawa nina Tin and Kate for me. Actually it brought back all fun memories in Starcom. Although hindi naman ako naiyak kasi naman nilagay nila yung mga funny pics ko dun.

Then Wendz, treated me for merienda at Sbarro Sm North.

Then Rae accompanied me to Kulet's gig and surprisingly it was also the last time na magkikita kami ni Kulet. Afterwards, Rae and I went to Eastwood to do this Neoprint thing.

Then Bebs and I had our last dinner kasama rin pala si Mae.

Tas lumabas kami ni Meann for the last time...

Lastly, I had dinner with Jae, Ji and Ken my former officemates.

"Farewell to you my friend, we'll see each other again.. Don't worry 'coz it's not the end of everything. I may be miles away but here where my heart will stay with you... my friends with you"

Siguro one of the reasons that I don't feel excited about the Canada thing is because I'm leaving my friends behind. I treasured my friends kasi and most of my fun memories are with friends. Don't get me wrong, I won't exchange my family for my friends. Its quite sad that I won't be seeing them or to spend time with them again.

"I'm leaving on a jet plane..Don't know when I'll be back again"

Yun din yung isa. Hindi ko alam kung kailan ako babalik. Its weirds me when people say that dalaw ka or kita uli tayo and the question is kailan. Even I, don't know when I'll be back again. I'm sure it will take me at least 5 years before I go back here at the Philippines.. well given that everything will be ok.

"This is the last time that I'll ever gonna be here tonight"

Tomorrow is our flight.. So this will be the last day that I'll be spending here in the Philippines. Goodbye SMS na rin, I mean at least here. This will also be my last post that I will be doing here at the Philippines.

Thanks sa lahat ng mga taong nakasama ko.

I assure you that you won't be forgotten.

For now, all I can do is look forward for a new life that will going to start tomorrow.

And yes the rest is still unwritten...

"Promise me you wait for me. Coz I'll be saving all my love for you, and I will be home soon

I'll be home..

I'll be home soon.."
