Paglalayag Pag Gabi

Paglalayag Pag Gabi

kakaiba ang mukha ng syudad pag gabi
ang liwanag ng poste ang nagsisilbing gabay
sa bawat mamang drayber na pumapasada
at taong naglalakad sa tabi ng kalsada

mas malamig ang hangin sa byahe pag gabi,
maraming ilaw, mula sa mga jeep at kotse na bumabaybay

sa jeep ang mukha ng mga tao ay kakaiba
naaaninagan mo dahil sa dilaw na ilaw
ng jeep ni manong drayber na kanina pa nakasalang sa syudad
maihatid ka lamang sa iyong paroroonan

ang mga tao ay nagsisiuwian na sa kani-kanilang tahanan
gabi na kasi sa syudad na iba ang itsura
pero ako paalis pa lamang

everyone has to lose their naivete at one point in time or another...

i lost mine when i was in grade 4.

but it doesnt mean that when you lose it, you grow up.

me... im still getting used to it.

oOo

something strange happened to me earlier this evening...

Carlo picked me up from work and then we went to Mt. Carmel Parish to visit my angkong (paternal grandfather) on his 1st death anniversary. After that, he dropped me off at school so that i could go to class. At 6pm he picked me up and we had dinner with his family.

After dinner while Carlo and I were preparing to leave, his tai-mah (maternal great grandmother, who for some weird reason is still alive and strong at 98 :lol: ) came up to me and said "Siobe, di kwi he lo? Di ye bak chiu si ya lao lo..." (literal translation: Little sister, how old are you? You seem to have old eyes...)(Carlo's translation: Little One, how old are you? You seem to have an old soul...) Being the tired twit that I was the only thing that i was able to say was "Gwa e bak chiu si ya lao, kasi gwa ya ay khun lo. Gwa bo le siya khun e." (translation: My eyes look old because Im already very sleepy. Coz I dont sleep that much) Then she goes... "Um si la.. di ye bak chiu yaw lao la. Di bo hwa hi ba kina? Di ye sing kim ya tya... Mang ane la. Di bo kwa si lo..." (No, its not... You really have an old soul. It isn't happy now, dont worry everything is going to be alright.)

That actually freaked me out. In the car, i asked Carlo if his tai-mah was always like that. He said, "Yeah, most of the time we just chalk it up to senility, but there are times that she has these "predictions" that are true... But don't mind it that much.. maybe its just one of those days."

oOo

The other night, I was at Starbucks with my bessy. He was feeling a lil blue partly because of things that are happening in the office and partly because of his run with luck or its lack thereof...

I was also in a funk because I'm disappointed with some things. So I pulled up the drawbridge once more.

Im amazed at how my bessy could get past my guard and pull me out of the castle effortlessly. In the span of a few minutes he had me laughing out loud. ^_^

I also said something to him that he liked and I've been thinking about what i told him and it made me realize another thing... that I should stop running away from my problems. No matter how far and how fast I run away, its going to catch up with me. Even if I go to another country, my problems would still be waiting for me when I come back.

Now, I'm done running. I'm done fighting the wind.

For that I am thankful.

oOo

Work has been a breeze lately... since we weren't doing much I have the chance to surf the net, post in my blog and post in my forums...

I found this hilarious thread in Pinoyexchange.com its "The most unique answer to an I LOVE YOU declaration..." This is the post that made me laugh out loud...

Guy (sending an SMS to his GF) : I LOVE YOU
response: "Check Operator Service"

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

oOo

a song for my bessy... ^_^

BREATHING
by: Lifehouse

I’m finding my way back to sanity again
Though I don’t really know what I’m gonna do
When I get there...
Take a breath and hold on tight
And spin around one more time
And gracefully fall back to the arms of grace

’cause I’m hanging on every word you say
And even if you don’t wanna speak tonight
That’s alright,
alright with me’cause I want nothing more
Than to sit outside heaven’s door
And listen to you breathing
It’s where I wanna be, yeah
Where I wanna be...

I’m looking past the shadows in my mind
Into the truth and i’m
Trying to identify the voices in my head
God, I wish it were you
Let me feel one more time what it
Feels like to feel alive
And break these callouses off of me one more time

’cause I’m hanging on every word you say
And even if you don’t wanna speak tonight
That’s alright, alright with me’cause I want nothing more
Than to sit outside your door
And listen to you breathing
It’s where I wanna be, yeah-ah...

I don’t want a thing from you
I bet you’re tired of me
Waiting for the scraps to fall off
Of your table to the ground...

’cause I just wanna be here now...
’cause I’m hanging on every word you say
And even if you don’t wanna speak tonight
That’s alright, alright with me’cause I want nothing more
Than to sit outside heaven’s door
And listen to you breathing
It’s where I wanna be, yeah...

’cause I’m hanging on every word you say
And even if you don’t wanna speak tonight
That’s alright, alright with me’cause I want nothing more
Than to sit outside heaven’s door
And listen to you breathing
It’s where I wanna be, yeah
Where I wanna be...
Where I wanna be...
