Bida ang Sarap!

Whether we admit it or not,  we grew up with Jollibee.  I used to laugh whenever I’ll get to see my old photo holding my “take-out” spaghetti behind Jollibee, posed with a joyful satisfaction. Jollibee has been our source of happiness way back when we were kids. Jollibee was our prestigious prize whenever we got an A in school or for being a good kid. We would always long to go to Jollibee.

Aside from their Filipino-taste food, Jollibee also has this meal for kids with toys but before that Jollibee would use their very own mascots as “free toy” wherein I  had couple of it or more then soon became my source of annoyance ahahah (i am not liking it anymore).

But despite that, I still enjoy going to Jollibee, their food and my favorite meal… chicken spaghetti with extra rice. (now I’m starving)

And because of the undying transformation, complementing the so-called innovation that we forgot how does the vintage Jollibee look nowadays.

I am proud  that I was able to take a picture of the vintage store at this age…at this era, the twenty-eleven.

And I wanna share it to you…

YOU are my sweetest downfall Park Jae Jae

 My life was always plain     and ordinary. Simple and not extravagant. I only want to be happy and I think I am… I think so. Although sometimes I am caught in a situation where I have no one to talk to, (it’s like I just needed someone to deal with my shallowness).

I just don’t know why in this lifetime I never had an “almost to perfect” relationship maybe, I am just afraid to have one…

My sweetest downfall, when I met you, I was still on the verge of moving forward from my personal kryptonite…superman. I thought everything will be forever between Lois and Superman, but I was wrong, it was like a nightmare that made me become like this. Uncertain to everything.

It was in september when I woke up and saw your beautiful eyes staring at mine.  We were strangers then.  I was introduced to you without expecting anything,  you were frugal but when you held my hand though it only  lasted for seconds I felt that there was  something. Something unexplainable. Something inevitable.

I was seated next to you,  and all I can feel is the humiliation of finally meeting my sweetest downfall.

You keep on asking if we’ll see each other again and I was uncertain, uncertain if I wanted to see you again for that matter.

It’s like serendipity when we met at the elevator. Suddenly you were at my back and told me “pagkakataon nga naman, nagkasabay talaga”.

Was it really destiny that for us to meet again?

My sweetest downfall, you make me  smile every time that I’ll see your beautiful face on your page.

Your look was so deceiving.  But I know deep inside, you were as soft as the clouds above beautifully inspiring my thoughts.

My sweetest downfall, I know I took you for granted at times when you’re trying all your best to speak to me despite your busy work.

I am so sorry…

My sweetest downfall, I’m sorry for not keeping my promise, to be positive. I know instead of helping you out I am dragging you to negativity. Again I am sorry.

I just miss your sweetness so badly… the way you laugh, I miss hearing it.

You hated to see me online early in the morning coz you wanted me to rest already because of work the next day but haven’t  you realized that I intended to patiently wait for you till you come home and see you online coz I am longing to talk to you again, hear your stories.

I miss when we’re still okay. When we still talk.

I know that I have pissed you off that instead of being the sunshine, instead I turned out to be the lightning  hitting you over and over with my emails which are just complains and complains and complains…

I am sorry…

If  only I could turn back time, if only I will be given a chance… If only…

Now, is it destiny that we’re apart? Is it destiny’s pulling us away from each other?

“Malas lang…malas lang…”

My sweetest downfall if only I could utter the words.

ALAY ko sayo!

Pinagpala ang makilala ka
Ikaw ang dahilan ng aking paghinga
At sa yong mga mata
Pag-ibig ay damangdama
Di masusukat aking ligaya

Ngunit sa kabila ng lahat
Ika’y aking nakakalimutan
At sa oras ng kahinaan di ka nangiiwan

Ito ay alay ko sa yo
Panalangin ng isang hamak na katulad ko
Ito ay alay ko sa yo
Awiting kinakanta ng puso ko
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/k/kamikazee/alay.html ]
Pinagpala ang makilala ka
Ikaw ang dahilan ng aking paghinga
Lahat ng ito’y wala kundi dahil sa yo
Di masusukat ang iyong puso

Ngunit sa kabila ng lahat
Ika’y aking nakakalimutan
At sa oras ng kahinaan di ka nangiiwan

Ito ay alay ko sa yo
Panalangin ng isang hamak na katulad ko
Ito ay alay ko sa yo
Awiting kinakanta ng puso ko

Ito ay alay ko sa yo
Panalangin ng isang hamak na katulad ko
Ito ay alay ko sa yo

Sino na nga ba ako???

Kung ako ang tatanungin ngayon “sino ba ‘ko”, siguradong hindi ko masasagot. Aking pinagninilayan sa tuwing ako’y mapapatulala bakit nga ba ako nagkaganito.  Sa pagkakatanda ko, mapagpasensya akong tao, tipong “oo” lang ng “oo”, hindi marunong sumagot at lalong hindi kaya ipaglaban ang nasasaloob. Ngunit ngayon, konting kibot lang ay talaga namang nag-iinit na agad ang aking ulo at hindi ako papayag na ako’y matatalo. Bakit nga ba??? Hindi kaya dahil ang lahat ng sama ng loob na aking binalewala noong una ay unti-unti nang kinakain ang aking pagkatao? Mahirap, sadyang napakahirap ang magpanggap na okay lang ang lahat. Na naiintindihan ko ang lahat.

Malaki na ang pinagbago ko at taas noo kong inaamin yun. Hindi lang ako sigurado kung mabuti o masama yun. Madalas alam kong nakakasakit na ako pero sa ngayon mas nanaisin kong iba ang masakatan kaysa ako.

Siguro nagsawa na ako magparaya…Masaktan…At higit sa lahat sawa na ko magtiwala.

Sa mga pangyayaring ito, isa lang ang sigurado ko, nabibilang lang sa daliri ang mga taong maari mong pagkatiwalaan…ang pwede mong maging totoong kaibigan…

A poet’s pen and paper

bumalikwas ako sa aking hinihigaan
iniisip ko kasi ang araw nang ika’y nakilala
nanaginip lang ba o katotohanan
ginoong aking nasilayan
o’ bakit naiiba sa kanila?

“can’t take my eyes off you”, nasambit sa isipan ko
regalo mula sa langit biglang nagkatotoo
estrangherong akin laging dinudulog
ganap nang nasilyan, hindi imahinasyon
ewan ko nga ba, ano ba ito?
nanambitan puso kong bato
champion! ang gunita ko sayo
isang simple’t totoong tao
astig ngang talaga, pag napansin mo…

Fewer long weekends await Pinoys in 2011

(Updated 7:41 p.m.) With just a a few weeks remaining before the year ends, Malacañang on Monday announced the holidays for 2011. However, there will be fewer long weekends next year as compared to this year.

According to Proclamation No. 84, the following regular holidays and special days for the year 2011 shall be observed in the country:

A. Regular Holidays

New Year’s Day – January 1 (Saturday)

Araw ng Kagitingan – April 9 (Saturday)

Maundy Thursday – April 21

Good Friday – April 22

Labor Day – May 1 (Sunday)

Independence Day – June 12 (Sunday)

National Heroes Day – August 29 (Last Monday of August)

Bonifacio Day – November 30 (Wednesday)

Christmas Day – December 25 (Sunday)

Rizal Day – December 30 (Friday)

B. Special (Non-Working) Days

Ninoy Aquino Day – August 21 (Sunday)

All Saints Day – November 1 (Tuesday)

Last Day of the Year – December 31 (Saturday) C. Special Holiday (for all schools)

EDSA Revolution Anniversary – February 25 (Friday)

“Proclamations declaring national holidays for the observance of Eid’l Fitr and Eidul AdhaHijra, or the lunar calendar, or upon Islamic astronomical calculations, whichever is possible or convenient, will be issued after the approximate dates of the Islamic holidays have been determined in accordance with the Islamic calendar,” Proclamation No. 84 says.

Fewer long weekends

Even though Proclamation No. 84 cites Republic Act No. 9492—which moves holidays, except those religious in nature, to the nearest Monday—Proclamation No. 84 returns the commemoration of holidays back to their original dates.

Only at least three holidays will give the public long weekends: Maundy Thursday and Good Friday; National Heroes’ Day (August 29, the last Monday of August); and Rizal Day (December 30, Friday).

For students, there will be four long weekends after the EDSA Revolution Anniversary on February 25 (Friday) has been declared a special holiday for schools.

The public enjoyed 11 long weekends in 2010.

In a phone interview, chief presidential legal counsel Eduardo de Mesa said it is within President Benigno Aquino III’s discretion whether or not to move holidays that are not religious in nature to the nearest Monday because RA 9492 says the said holidays can be moved “unless otherwise modified by law, and/or proclamation.”

He said the legality of not moving holidays to the nearest Monday was settled when Aquino declared Aug. 23, 2010 (Monday) a regular working day even though former president Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo had moved the commemoration of Ninoy Aquino Day from August 21, a Saturday, to the nearest Monday.

Under RA 9492, holidays that are not religious in nature can be moved to the nearest Monday “unless otherwise modified by law, and/or proclamation.” – KBK, GMANews.TV

Pabili ng TSINELAS!

Sa tuwing uuwi ako ng bahay at may bili akong bagong tsinelas na sipit eh galit na galit ang nanay ko. Lagi niyang sambit “mukha ka talagang tsinesla”! Naisip ko, hindi naman siguro. Mukha pa din akong tao ahahah. Sa ngayon mayroon akong 3 pares ng tsinelas na halos kabibili ko lamang. Hindi ko din kasi maintindihan ang aking sarili, sa tuwing makakakita ako ng tsinelas na kulay berde, hay, hindi ako nagdadalawang isip na bilhin ito. Impulsive buyer ako, oo pagdating sa tsinelas. Ang weird di ba? Pero compulsive buyer ako kapag ang bibilhin ko ay ang importanteng bagay na, kulang ang isang araw para sa akin makahanap lang ng mura pero dekalidad na produkto.



Ito ang pinaka-latest sa collection ko…yipeee! Expensive amongst the others hehehe

A valentine gift from mah sister actually exchange gifts kami, I got her sneakers from BENCH then I asked for IPANEMA (all though its way much expensive than hers, so I needed to add) LOL

And coming soon, I found this cute tsinelas sa BENCH ulit so I am buying it hehe

My personal JA rule!



I was on the verge of forgetting

Then you came reminding

I was not into trusting

Then you made me trying

 

I’m impatient

But you were lenient

I’m stubborn

You were there to listen

 

We’re opposite

In all aspects

But there’s one we’re common

Both are crazy! Crazy can be!

 

Distance was tough

Much more to understand

Taught me patience

And asked me hence

 

We’re apart

Yes I hate that part

Despite your busy days

Please be reminded if that’s the case

 

I’m not asking for full-time

A 5-minute will be fine

I’m not expecting an ASAP

But could atleast reply once

 

Don’t know why I’m contemplating

Nor why have the courage in sending

I’m just being thankful enough

For teaching the opposite being me

 

 

 

Accidentally…

Superman to Lois : “Someday its gonna make sense…we gotta hold on…” and Lois replied : “Holding on is synonymous to Not Giving Up until you reached your pinnacle…”

Accidentally they met, thanks to UAAP, thanks to “UAAP tickets” the undying issuance of ticket for varsitarian and pep members…

Accidentally they first met…year of 2005…UAAP Cheerdance competition…She needed tickets asap, so she got his number ask him if he still has to sell, fortunately she was able to get 3 then, so they met at gym 5 the favorable gym 5…her perfect eb den…

There was some sort of drama that time, she was able to act finely and be pretentious enough to make him believe about her white lies… and they lost communication…they saw each other during the competition, he stared but she avoided to look back…just her act of avoidance…

4 yrs to count and here comes another UAAP battle, it wasn’t the ticket at first…she needed help to reach the pep, she took her phone, check on her list and yes, still his number was there… she tried to ring his phone, checking if it still working and it is… she sent her business affair with him but unfortunately, he wasn’t able to help her out this time around… oh well it was just a purely trial shot.

Accidentally their alma mater falls into the final two slot… once again, she needed tickets to get to the game w/o the hassle of falling lines at the venue…

Accidentally they exchanged conversation…

Accidentally they become close…

Accidentally they become friends…

Accidentally the friendship becomes deeper…

Accidentally it was special…

Accidentally he needs her to believe on him, just believe on him…

Accidentally he become her Clark Kent…

Accidentally she become Superman’s Lois…

Accidentally they tossed the coin… “head: sa iyo na ako…tail: sa akin ka na”

Accidents do happen and accidentally their path met in the midst of searching…

Accidents do happen…and accidentally, Superman Return’s applied in their whirlwind attachment with each other…
Lois to Superman: “You didn’t even say goodbye”
Superman to Lois: “I need to go back, goodbye Lois”

From the very beginning of the saga of Superman, Lois never had superman. She can’t have him because she always need to rival…
Its a sad reality that Lois can never be superman’s priority…that Superman can never be around for Lois always…

Lois is Superman’s personal kryptonite…

Superman maybe the man of the steel but weak inside and Lois is his counter strength…he thought Lois is strong enough for him but he was wrong, Lois weakened and she gave up, she can’t hold on anymore to something she really can’t have for the rest of her life…
