To Chuchai
BEST FRIENDS:
Always there to be obnoxious with you…
…And to listen to your stupid stories.
They know how to cheer you up…
…And how to bring you down.
They know when you like someone…
…Or when you need to rebuild your self esteem.
Sometimes, they can be annoying…
Or just simply embarrassing…
But they will be always there for you, forever.
to Chuchai..

Dingo Turns 11
Today marks Dingo's 11th Anniversary of his arrival in our life. He was put inside a tetra pack juice's box when he first came that Thursday afternoon 11 years ago. That small puppy in that box became my constant companion, my furred best friend. Years had passed, yet I still remember clearly how I nursed him when he cried on his first night with us, missing his mother perhaps. He grew up with me and we've through up's and down's together. I nurse his wounds whenever he gets into a fight with other dogs; he sits by my side whenever I cry silently in the corner or just staring at the stars wondering what lies ahead of us. When he came, I was only an innocent 10 year-old girl who badly wants a dog. Now I am a 21 year-old graduate who struggles to make a mark in this world. Dingo was my sibling, my best friend, my playmate, my pet. I affectionately love him so much. He may never speak a word but the wag of his tail whenever he sees me is priceless.

You know what's cute??
I find it adorable when someone remembers the littlest details about you. It’s cute when that person takes the time and effort to surprise you with the things you don’t remember telling them about. It’s like they’ve read your mind. The kind of person that pays attention to what you say just so they can use it to their advantage in order to put a smile on your face. I love those thoughtful people who go out of their ways just so they can make you happy.

Yehey..21 na ako!!
Today, I turned 21. I thank God for giving me a chance to lived this far even though I'm still pretty young. I am grateful to him coz' without him, I'm nothing. I'm blessed and still blessed and I want to thank him for all the blessing he has given me. We may not rich but we lived a pretty comfortable life and we never worry about food, shelter, clothes, education and many more, because he is our provider.
This day was amazing. A contrast to my 20th birthday last year. I woke up early and checked on my Facebook and tumblr accounts, read some birthday greetings from my friends and was thrilled to find out that I already had a follower in Tumblr (okiez guyz, I know some of you are not yet familiar with Tumblr but I promised, you'll love it..better way to express yourself). I was off to my paternal grandmother's house to somehow share this day with them.
Maaga akong hinatid ni papa sas bahay ng lola ko na si Lola Mayang. Pagdating ko dun, binati agad ako ni Lola Mayanag at ng kapatid nya na si lola Rita pati na rin nina Kuya Bryan at Ate Kabing. masay ako dahil tinupad ni Lola yung' request ko na pritong isaw ang maging ulam namin sa tanghalian. Food trip talaga ang drama namin. Bawat hain ni mamang Bec ng isaw, nauubos agad namni. Syempre pa, busog na busog kami plus may dalawang pantulak pa kami. Medyo maalinsangan kaya pagkatapos kumain, naligo kami sa flowing (eherm, pangalawang ligo ko na po yun sa araw na to'). Ang sarap-sarap ng tubig. ang lamig-lamig pa. Nagsawa kami ni Inday (Si Riza Dizon, dalawa kasi ang Inday na pinsan ko) sa tubig. Tyempong naligo rin si Lola Mayang kaya ayun, umaatikabong chikahan pa rin kahit naliligo..:) Tumigil lang kami nung medyo nilalamig na ko.
Pagdating kina Lola, dali-dali agad akong nagbihis kasi may lakad pa kami ng mga auntie at pinsan ko sa side naman ng mama ko. Medyo umaambon na kasi kaya nagmadali na talaga ako kasi baka abutan pa ako ng ulan. Itre-treat kasi kami ni Auntie Bebe, panganay na kapatid ng mama ko. Medyo natagalan kami sa pagsunod sa kanila sa KCC Chowking kasi hinintay pa namin yung mag-iinject sana ng anti-tigdas kay JayJay. Hindi naman dumating kaya umalis na agad kami kasi baka naiinip na sila auntie.
Umorder kami sa Chowking. Syempre pa, busog again ang bida. Bigla namang nagtext ng emo si Mich, kesho mainit daw ang ulo ko kaya daw di ako nagrereply sa text nya. Naman, lowbat na kaya cp ko at limited pa talaga load ko kasi nagloloko ang network ng smart, swetre pa ngang nakapagload ako agad kagabi kaya may load pa ko. kahit busog na busog pa ako, nagpaalam ako na may pupuntahan. Dali-dali akong pumunta sa office nila Mich. ang bruha at ayaw pa talaga akong pagbuksan. Sabi nya, may ibibgay daw sya sa akin maya-maya kaya magkita daw kami around 7pm. Umungot naman ng libre si Anice kaya pinagbigyan ko, binilhan ko ng lomi..hehe. Bumalik kaagad ako pagkatapos naming magkasuyndo ni Mich ng oras at lugar kung saan ny iibigay yung gift ko..(weeh, excited!)
Tyempo namang nakita namin ayung close friend ni Mama na may-ari ng isang pharmacy. Inabutan ako ng 500!!!!!!!!! Weeehh, blessing na naman! kahit anong pilit kung huwag tanggapin, pinilit rin nya akong tanggapin yun. So, bawal naman daw tumanggi sa grasya kaya tinanggap ko na rin. Binili ko ng battery ng cellphone ko yun kasi medyo sira na at madali na kasing malowbat yung lumang bat ko. Iniwan muna namin si Jayjay sa kid's corner para walang hussle kung saan namin gustong pumunta. Bumalik naman kami kaagad pagkatapos naming bumili ng battery. Deretso kami sa Gaisano para bumili ng maskara para sa masquerade ball ni papa at yung librong gift ko sa sarili ko. Nauna naming pinuntahan ang toy's store para mamili ng maskara, sukat dito, sukat doon. Bumili ako ng pang-jabbawookeez na maskara pati na rin yung para kay papa. After nun, deretso kami sa National Bookstore. Gift ko kasi sa sarili ko yung Youth Bible. Gusto kong magkaroon ng personal kong bible kaya yun ang napili ko. Muntik pa nga kaming pagsarhan ng National Bookstore kasi kami na ang huling customer nila.Di na ko mapakali kasi 7pm na at malamang naghihintay na si Mich. Tapos ng National Bookstore, Socoteco naman ang destinasyon namin. May lat\ro kasi ang papa ko at nandun din si Kuya Leo. Nagtext naman si Mich kung anong oras pa daw ako darating kasi nilalamok na sya..
to be continued muna kasi inaantok na ko. Nytz everyne...

Salamat sa 2 Chui, at kay Haifa and Jude..
(Sinulat ko to kagabi kaso wala akong chance ilagay kaagad dito..)
Masaya ako. Msaya ako dahil bukas eh birthday ko na. Simula bukas, 21 years old na ko. Masaya ako dahil sinorpresa ako ng mga friends ko na sina Jude, Merckz, Haifa at Kareen, isang araw before ang birthday ko. Dumating sila na wala man lang akong kamalay-malay na dadalaw pala sila.Syempre pa, I was caught surprised. Hindi ko talaga inexpect na may mag-eeffort bisitahin ako para lang batiin ako ng happy kaarawan. :)
Masaya yung alam mong importante ka sa mga taong mahalaga rin sa'yo. Lalung-lalo na kung nag-effort talaga sila na puntahan ka kahit masyadong out of the way na ang lugar namin sa mga bahay nila. Nagdala pa talaga sila ng ice cream..hehe. Nahuli tuloy nila akong nakasuot ng Vanguards jersey at pambasketball na shorts. Kulang na lang talaga at ready to play ball na ang bida..XD.
Bago sila dumating, nagtext pa sa'kin si Jud. Nagtatanong kung nasa bahay ba daw ako, kung gising ba daw ako at kung paborito ko ba ang chocolate..Whew, buti na lang talaga nagreply ako. Di ko naman ugaling magreply ngayong mga panahong to' na wala na akong baon at bihira na lang mgkaload (ika nga, poorita ang bida..) Hindi ko rin talaga inexpect na maaalala nila na birthday ko. Ngayon pa na graduate na kami at bihirang-bihira na lang kung magkita. Friends talaga tayo.. :)
Maraming-Maraming Thank You kina Judelynn Torrifiel, Lannie-Lenn Mercado, Haifa Abdusalam, at Kareen Campos, kahit bukas pa ang bithday ko, kinumpleto nyo na ang araw ko. Salamat rin sa ice cream at sa effort. :))

Last Day as 20
Today is May 01. Ngayong araw na to' ang huling araw ng pagiging 20 years old ko. At bukas, 21 years old na ang bida. Tumatanda na talaga ako.. :)
Aaminin kong yung birthday ko last year ang pinakamalungkot na birthday ko.. :'( Nasa hospital kasi ang mama ko nung time na yun at malungkot talaga..di ko talaga feel na birthday ko.
Inexpect ko pa naman na madidischarge sya sa ospital bago ang birthday ko. Ang hirap talaga ng feeling na di mo kasama yung mga taong importante sa'yo sa araw pa naman ng kaarawan mo. Naiyak talaga ako sa text ni mama nun (brown-out pa talaga nung gabing yun). Yun na pala ang last birthday greeting nya sa akin kasi nung November kinuha na sya sa amin.. :'(

Pero masaya naman ako dahil mas nakasama ko sya ng mas matagal kesa sa mga kapatid ko at naabutan nya akong tumuntong sa edad na 20's.
Sana, bukas, kahit di na namin kasama si mama, maging masaya naman kahit paano ang birthday ko..So bukas, I'll paint the town red, hehe :)). Thanks God na naabot ko ang edad ko ngayon. Pati na rin sa mga blessing na dumating, dumarating at darating pa sa buhay ko at sa mga taong nagmamahal sa akin. Advance Hapi Bertdey to ME..!! :))

Dear..
Dear Future Wife,
I don’t know where you are right now. I don’t know how you look like. I don’t know how you laugh, or how you cry. You’re probably with someone else right now. Or you might be alone just like me. I don’t know when our paths will cross. I don’t know when we can walk on the beach together, then watch stars at night and wait for a shooting star (and wish for forever if we see one, btw I’ve never seen a shooting star yet). We’ll sleep under the moonlight. We’ll watch the sunrise. I’ll cook breakfast for you. If we have kids, we’ll still do these things with them. We’ll go to church as a family, have a picnic after. I’ll teach them how to fly kites. You’ll teach them how to sing, or dance, or draw.
The list can go on forever. But I don’t know when these will happen. For now, all I can do is wait for you. And I’ll wait patiently for you. I know you’ll be worth the wait.
Love,
Your Future Husband

Love letter idea suggested by sareru
An Atheist Professor of Philosophy was speaking to his Class on the problem Science has with God. He asked one of his new Christian students to stand.
Professor: You are a Christian, aren’t you, son?
Student: Yes, sir.
Professor: So, you believe in God?
Student: Absolutely, sir.
Professor: Is God good?
Student: Sure.
Professor: My brother died of cancer, even though he prayed to God to heal him. Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But God didn’t. How is God good, then? Hmm?
(Student was silent)
Professor: You can’t answer, can you? Let’s start again, young fella. Is God good?
Student: Yes.
Professor: Is Satan good?
Student: No.
Professor: Where does Satan come from?
Student: From.. God.
Professor: That’s right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?
Student: Yes.
Professor: Evil is everywhere, isn’t it? And God did make everything. Correct?
Student: Yes.
Professor: So who created evil?
(Student didn’t answer)
Professor: Is there sickness? Immortality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the world, don’t they?
Student: Yes, sir.
Professor: So, who created them?
(Student had no answer)
Professor: Science says you have 5 senses you use to identify and observe the world around you. Tell me, son.. have you ever seen God?
Student: No, sir.
Professor: Tell us if you have ever heard your God.
Student: No, sir.
Professor: Have you ever felt your God, tasted your God, smelt your God? Have you ever had any sensory perception of God, for that matter?
Student: No, sir. I’m afraid I haven’t.
Professor: Yet you still believe in Him?
Student: Yes.
Professor: According to empirical, testable, demonstrable protocol, Science says your God doesn’t exist. What do you say to that, son?
Student: Nothing. I only have my Faith.
Professor: Yes, Faith. And that is the problem Science has.
Student: Professor, is there such a thing as Heat?
Professor: Yes.
Student: And is there such a thing as Cold?
Professor: Yes.
Student: No, sir, there isn’t.
(The Lecture Theatre became very quiet with this turn of events)
Student: Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat. But we don’t have anything called cold. We can hit 458 Degrees below Zero which is no heat, but we can’t go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold. Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of Heat. We cannot measure cold. Heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it.
(There was a pon-drop silence in the Lecture Theatre)
Student: What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?
Professor: Yes. What is night if there isn’t darkness?
Student: You’re wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have Low Light, Normal Light, Bright Light, Flashing Light… But if you have No Light constantly, you have nothing and it’s called Darkness, isn’t it? In reality, darkness isn’t. If it is, You would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn’t you?
Professor: So what is the point you are making, young man?
Student: Sir, my point is, your Philosophical Premise is flawed.
Professor: Flawed? Can you explain how?
Student: Sir, you are working on the Premise of Duality. You argue there is Life and then there is Death, a good God and a bad God. You are viewing the concept of God as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, Science can’t even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one. To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing. Death is not the opposite of life, just the absence of it. Now tell me, Professor, do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?
Professor: If you are referring to the Natural Evolutionary Process, yes of course, I do.
Student: Have you ever observed Evolution with your own eyes, sir?
(The professor shook his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument was going)
Student: Since no one has ever observed the Process of Evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavor, are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a Scientist but a Preacher?
(The class was in uproar)
Student: Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor’s brain?
(The class broke out into laughter)
Student: Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor’s brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? .. No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established Rules of Empirical, Stable and Demonstrable Protocol, Science says that you have no brain, sir. With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures?
(The room was silent. The Professor stared at the student, his face unfathomable)
Professor: I guess you’ll have to take them on Faith, son.
Student: That is it, sir.. exactly! The link between man and God is Faith. That is all that keeps things alive and moving!
