GAYA NG DATI
Dati-rati
Laman ng puso mo ay ang pangalan Ko
Lagi Ako sa isip mo
Dati-rati
Inaawitan pa, labi ay may ngiti
Mga mata'y nagniningning
Ngunit ngayon, nagbago ka
Nasa'n na ang init ng pagsinta?
Pangako mo'y hindi magwawakas
Di ba't noon samyo ng bulaklak at ihip ng hangin
Ay kapansin-pansin?
Di ba't noon takbo ng oras ay di mo napapansin?
Laging naglalambing
Ngunit ngayon, naglaho na
Sigla't tamis ng 'yong pagsinta
Pagmamahal Ko ba'y kailangan pa
Dati-rati
Mga pangako Ko'y kandungan mo't lakas
Sa pagsubok ay kay tatag
Di ba't noon sa kaibigan mo'y Ako'ng bukam-bibig
Bakit ngayo'y anong lamig?
Di mo alam Ako'y nasasaktan
Sa 'di pagpansin sa aking pagmamahal
Lumapit ka't Ako'y naghihintay
Naghihintay
Ako'y nasasaktan
Sa di pagpansin sa aking pagmamahal
Lumapit ka't Ako'y naghihintay
Di mo alam Ako'y nasasaktan
Sa di pagpansin sa Aking pagmamahal
Lumapit ka't Ako'y naghihintay
Panginoon,
Ako'y nabulag ng mandarayang mundo
Ako ay patawarin Mo
Mula ngayon,
Ang buhay kong ito'y iaalay sa 'Yo
Gamitin Mo ako
Gaya ng dati
Gaya ng dati
Gaya ng dati
Habang nagk-quiet time ako kanina, nakikinig ako ng Christian songs at naiyak ako. Feeling ko kasi natamaan ako ng song na to. Eversince dumating ako dito sa States, aminado ako, somehow nanghina ako lalo na sa spiritual life ko. Nagsskip ako ng quiet time, nakakalimutan kong magpray minsan bago matulog, naging occupied yung mind ko ng ibang bagay, na-take for granted ko Siya. At napansin ko, kinakausap ko lang Siya kapag kailangan ko, kapag sobrang malungkot ako o sobrang masaya ako. I'm sorry, God. Katulad nga nung last verse ng song, use me again. Bring me back to You.

Gah. I'M BORED.
Since I got nothing to do, I would blog. Hmm. Wala akong maisip. Routine lang naman buhay dito. Kaya boring.
Fine, just for the sake of posting.
It's been 3months since Spring Semester started and time really flies so fast. In almost three weeks, the sem's over. :D And what, I don't feel that I've accomplished a lot. I must admit that for those three months, I didn't give much effort to excel in my subjects. I settled for mediocrity. And until now, I'm not really sure if mediocrity could save me this semester. O God, please spare me from failing. =\
I missed most of my classes this semester and missing classes means missing quizzes as well for my two other subjects. I have three classes for this sem and I am quite sure of passing 2 out of 3. Yung isa, goodluck sa akin. Absent kasi ako palagi sa subject na yun. And the bad thing is, I think my professor knows about my absences. Tsktsk. Tapos, since I always miss that class and 10% is for attendance, goodbye 10% for me diba. Gah. Tapos tapos, his exams are not very easy. Even though I study for them until almost 5am, it was still not enough. I passed my first two exams, but for the last one, I doubt it. Oh well, I still have one final exam left for it, and I need to do well. Or else, patay ako.
Anyway, kamusta nga ba ang first semester ko dito sa sem? Aside from talking about the academics proper and about my grades, I can say that College life here is way more different than that in the Philippines. You see, I have classmates which are older than me. Unlike in UP, you get to mingle with classmates of almost the same age as you are. Here, some are over 25 years old. Most of them, or I must say, most of us juggle work and school every day. Well, I don't work everday but they do. They work 7 or 8 hours in the morning and go straight to class in the evening. Yes, they do that. I'm also quite new about this idea. Amazing diba. Pero that's how it really goes here.
When it comes to having friends, I did make a few acquaintances. I have classmates which I talk to every class. Take note, talk to lang. I don't hang out with them. Coz I think, ganun talaga kapag College dito. You go to class, mingle with your classmates, have fun with them during class. But once the class is over, once you get out of the room, you would all seperate ways and do your own thing. Sad diba? Pero sanay na ako.
They also have organizations here but unlike UP orgs, they are not into activities or building friendships. They are more into academics stuff and career-related activities. At sa aking pagoobserve, sororities lang yung mga group na super bonded. Kaya nga may times na parang gusto ko ng sumali ng soro e. Haha. Kasi it's not like Pinoy sororities wherein there are physical initiations, it's more of like public humiliation. And I think that would help me be more matured and confident. Kasi suuper mahiyain ako dito. I won't talk to you if you don't approach me first. Haha mapride? Ayun.
All in all, I don't like College here. Haha bitter. Well, I'm getting used to it. What can I do, ganito dito e. I just have to adjust to it, and more importantly, I really have to mature now. Eto na ata ang calling ko ng pagpapakamature. Haha. Siguro kasi, I started College in the Philippines kaya ako nanibago. But I think, once I find the right people to call as my "US College friends (haha)", I'll be fine. :) I hope so.
For now, I still have two final exams, two projects and two reports left. After that, I'm done. I would officially be a bum again. Brr. Hmm, but I think I'd take summer classes. Para rin makagraduate na ng mabilis. I'm also planning to work full time for the summer so that I can save money. And either I go to Canada for two weeks or go home to the Philippines. HAHA. If anyone would lend me or better yet, give me money for the plane ticket, I'll surely go home. Haha.
Hay. I miss Philippines. I miss my friends. I miss you. Yes, YOU! (You know who you are.) :D

VALENTINE'S 2009
When we meet the right person to love when we’re at the right place at the right time, that’s chance.
When you meet someone you’re attracted to, that’s not a choice. That’s chance.
Being caught up in a moment (and there’s a lot of couples who get together because of this) is not a choice. That’s also a chance.
The difference is what happens afterwards.
When will you take that infatuation, that crush, that mind-blowing attraction to the next level?
That’s when all sanity goes back, you sit down and contemplate whether you want to make this into a concrete relationship or just a fling. If you decide to love a person, even with his faults, that’s not a chance. That’s choice.
When you choose to be with a person, no matter what, that’s choice.
Even if you know there are many people out there who are more attractive, smarter, and richer than your mate, and yet, you decide to love your mate just the same, that’s choice.
Infatuation, crushes, attraction comes to us by chance. But true love that lasts is truly a choice.
A choice that we make.
Regarding soul mates, there’s a beautiful movie quote that I believe is so true about this: “Fate brings you together, but it’s still up to you to make it happen.”
I do believe that soul mates do exist. That there is truly someone made for you. But it’s still up to you to make the choice if you’re going to do something about it or not.
We may meet our soul mates by chance, but loving and staying with our soul mates is still a choice we have to make.
We came to the world not by finding someone perfect to love… BUT to learn how to love an imperfect person perfectly…
Conclusion: it is not the matter how to find someone perfect to love, but how to love someone imperfect perfectly…..
Love itself is a choice.
Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
I have the happiest yet the lonliest Valentine's day this year. Ironic. Happiest because I already found the perfect person to love. The sad thing is, I can't be with him as much as I want to. :(
Everyday you wait is another day you’ll never get back again.

My HAPPIEST New Year. :)
What a way to start my New Year. I won't ever forget this first month of this year.
Para umpisahan, I planned to surprise my friends in the Philippines na uuwi ako ng December 31. Only a few of them knew about my vacation. Sobrang saya ko sa bakasyong yun. At andami dami kong naranasan, natutunan, naramdaman at ngayon, namimiss. Sobra. :(
Nagtravel ako mag-isa for the first time, internationally. - Dati nagttravel ako going to Los Banos na mag-isa rin minsan. Pero that was my first time to travel across the globe. Experience! :)
Nastranded sa isang foreign country alone on a New Year's Eve. - Happy Chinese New Year to me! Nastranded kami sa China ng New Year's Eve when I planned to celebrate that eve in the Philippines. Badtrip. Pero at least I got to meet new friends and experienced something new.
Nagsurprise ng friends about my trip. - May parang nahypnotize, may naiyak at may mga nagulat talaga.
Nagdrive sa kung saan saan ng solong solo ko yung kotse at nagsayang ng gas.
Mabangga. - Haha. Nakabangga ako sa UP ng Honda Jazz. Buti na lang mabait yung nabangga ko.
Freedom! - Sobrang freedom. SAYA! :)
Nakaattend ng Birthday, Debut, Kasal at Funeral Wake all in one vacation.
Nakanood ng MYMP Gig with someone special. :)
Nakapunta ng Batangas para magbeach with friends. - First time ko magtreat ng ganon. I HAD FUN! SOBRA.
Nakapunta ng UPLB para bumisita sa blocmates. - I missed them. Thank you blocmates. Thanks Jonnel for going with me. :)
Nakaluto ng isang mahirap na dish. - Hindi lang pala isa, dalawa. Adobo and Pasta! Thanks Badeth for helping me out with the Adobo. Thank you Jayson, Lisa, Badeth and Jeff sa pagtulong sa pasta. Haha.
Makatry magsmoke. - Oops. Di talaga ako nagsmoke ha. Nagpuff lang ako twice. And that's it!
Magpainom. - Sa bahay naman. Malasing si Badeth, first time nya! Yay! Haha.
Ma-inlove. ♥ :)
Makasama ulit ang real friends ko. :)
Nakakamiss. SOBRA. :(
Nung pag-alis ko, narealize ko mas nahirapan ako this time. Hindi ko alam kung bakit. Maybe because alam ko na mas matatagalan pa bago ako makabalik ulit since start na ng classes ko. Three days pa lang ako dito sa US pero gusto ko na ulit bumalik. Gustong gusto ko na talaga.
Iniisip ko na lang, mabilis na lang yung araw. Sana nga bumilis na siya. Sana paggising ko one day, uuwi na ulit ako ng Pilipinas. Madrama. Pero sana talaga.

And a happy new year
Let`s hope it`s a good one
Without any fear and so this is chrïstmas
And what have we done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
I love this song. Nadiscover ko lang sya nung may sinend na email sa akin tatay ko about the song. Natouch lang ako. And it made me feel senti. Haha. Try listening to it, it'll make you feel thankful for the whole year. :)
While listening to it, a lot of things came to my mind. Parang lahat ng bagay na nangyari this year, nagrewind sa utak ko. Some things made me smile, a few made me somehow sad. But one thing I'm sure, I have no regrets this year. Although I know there were really some days that made me feel sooo sad. Like what I'm always telling myself, everything happens for a reason. And I know whatever that reason is, it's always for the best. Syempre, si God pa. :)
Christmas day is already over. I really did enjoy my first Christmas day here in the States. We celebrated it different from the way we usually celebrate it when we were still in the Philippines but for the whole day, though it was tiring, I had fun. Sobra. We started the day with a family party. Everybody was there except for three of my Titos. One had this personal problem that's why he can't join us. And the two went home for the Philippines to celebrate Christmas with their families. Anyway, we started the party at exactly 12am. We ate noche buena, had our Christmas gift giving headed by Santa Tom Clause. Haha. Nagbidyoke at kumain ulit. The party ended at almost 4am. At around 12nn, I had to get up to attend our Christmas party in KFC. We ate..again, gave our gifts and had fun. 2hrs lang ata yung party. Tapos after that, I had to go home and had to go with my cousins and Titos to Ate Kaye's bridal shower party. It was my first time to attend a bridal shower. Nakakatuwa. We had games for the 'big girls'. At nanalo pa ako sa Pin the Man's Weewee game. Hahaha. Natarget ko dun sa 'ano' nya e. Galing ko! Haha. After the games, Ate Kaye opened her gifts. We ate..again. Haha. And went home. That was how my Christmas day went. It was tiring, but I had reaaaal fun. Thanks to the people I've been with for the whole day. And thank you Lord.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Papa Jesus! :)

Hm. This is just for the sake of posting an entry. Pero I'll keep this short. Late na rin kasi. Kelangan ko pang bumangon bukas ng 6am. Pupunta ko sa other school ko. Oo, other school. Well, magulo pa. Maski ako nababaliw na rin kakaisip. Haha. I'lll try to post the whole story about it some other day. Pero kapag tinamad na ako, well, sowri. Haha.
I love this day. One, because it snowed for the whole day again. Last Saturday was my first day to experience snow. But today was different. Malalaki yung snow flakes tapos hindi masyadong malamig. Tapos makikita mo, color white all over the place. Ang saya tignan, kumikinang pa kapag naiilawan. Haha. Okaay, nagmumukha na akong ignorante. Haha sorry first timer. Second reason I'm happy today is because my dad went back here from California already. He still doesn't know if he's gonna come back there. Nahihirapan daw kasi siya magisa. Ayun. Third is because I had fuuuun working today. I always have fun working in KFC ever since nasanay na ako. Pero this day is just better than the other fun days. Haha labo. Masaya kasi talaga lalo na yung PM shift. PM people are easier to work with than those in the morning shift. At mga ka-age ko pa yung sa PM shift so okay talaga. I'll really miss working and being with them when I get out of this job. :( Nakakalungkot silang iwanan. Tsk. I've already made myself comfortable being with them. Hay. Maybe I will come back there. Siguro. Haha.
Ayun, that's it for my day today. And oh nga pala. This morning, I had this customer. Suki. Haha. Every time he goes to our place, he always tells me not to work in KFC but to try my luck in the modelling world. Naks. Syempre, natouch naman ako. Haha feelingera. He always tellls me that. Tapos kanina nung dumating siya, pinakita niya sa akin yung picture nung anak niya. Sabi niya last Saturday daw pumunta daw yun sa store namin. Tapos kinwento daw sa kanya ng anak niya na nahiya daw siya sa akin nung ako yung kumuha ng order niya. Di daw siya makatingin ng maayos. Wth. Haha. Hindi ko nga napansin yun e. Syempre nagfifeeling ako. Bwaha. Minsan lang naman e. :P Natuwa lang ako nung nalaman ko. And at the same time, naweirdo-han din. Haha.
Anyway, sabi ko I'll keep this short. Wow short na short lang e. =/ Haha.

We never really get to know if we’ve found our one true love, if there even is such a thing. It’s like faith — we believe it to be true, we KNOW it’s true, but empirically, we just don’t know. You’re one so sure, until you’re not. But for the sake of argument that it exists, then here are your signs.
July 11, 2008 → The Top Ten Signs That You’ve Found Your One True Love - Princess Alex
Jill - When you find romance in the routine.
Grace - Despite all the new technology, he still sends me snail mail; he’s been doing that for the past 4 years.
Mockbuster - He leaves skid marks in his undies all the time, but you wash them anyway.
Scuderia - When you’d rather not sleep because reality is far better than your dreams.
No name - I’m married. Met another woman. Fell madly in love and had a 2-1/2 yr affair. My wife told me to do what I needed to, to be happy. Ended affair. My wife, my one true love.
GeLengZan - I married the man who is the exact opposite of everything I thought I wanted in a man.
Doorknob - When you hear the word, “home”, what comes to mind is not a place, but that person.
Mockbuster - After 8 years of being together, I still find myself smiling just by looking at him.
No name - If he’s your strength AND your weakness.
Maynman - When you buy Chickenjoy and your first instinct is to give her the crispy skin. When that happened to me and I gave it to her, I was shocked myself!
Hapihenri - When you found someone you never thought you always wanted.
Kobe Kong - The moment I saw her, I instantly knew that I won’t be spending my life alone and unhappy.
Estranged - If you find yourself compromising your dreams just so he could achieve his.
Dongster - If she still loves you even if you used to work as a “reflexologist”.
TReiz - When you’ve met someone who infuriates you, yet you can’t stop thinking about them.
SPY Shadow - If, when you showed him your picture when you were still a man, and he nonchalantly answered, “So?”
Mr. Perk - Pag sinabi na niyang, “Pare, iiwan ko na si Mare.”
Dru - If a certain female DJ outs you on national radio, but you really don’t mind because having him in your life was so worth all the embarrassment.
Estrellita - If he makes you feel like you’re the most beautiful woman in the world, even if you’re not.
Jose de vengenge/Geyp - Love sucks. True love swallows.
**I got this from Chico Garcia's blog. In case you don't know him, he's a DJ from RX 93.1 I used to listen to his show with Del every morning when I was in the Philippines. Gusto ko yung top ten nila. This is just one of them. :)

NANALO SI PACQUIAO! Woohoo! :)
I went to my school this morning with my tito coz I had an appointment with my admission adviser. He told me about everything I needed to know for my enrollment on Dec. 11. They evaluated my records I had in UP. And out of 99 credits I took from the Philippines, 57 yung nacredit. Which is not bad. Kasi in my course now, I need 122 credits all in all to graduate so I still need to take 65 more credits. Bachelor of Science in Technical Management pala course ko. At DeVry University yung school ko. Ako na ang maraming course at maraming school. : I'm dreading to graduate and to get my degree. O please. Pagod nako sa kakalipat ng course at school at bahay at tinitirhan. Maygad. Haha. Anywaaay, pagkagaling sa school, I went home to have a nap and went to work again. My workmate Douglas is not okay today, he went to work late because someone died in his family. I felt sad for him. Also, just the other day, Javaid's sister also died of cancer. Tapos kanina lang nalaman ko, namatay na din daw si Marky Cielo, yung artista sa GMA. Grabe. Natakot naman ako bigla. It just made me think that we really have to live each day to the fullest. Haha. Pero totoo naman kasii. Ayun. After work, my cousin fetched me and we went straight to the other house to watch Pacquiao-Dela Hoya match. Payperview kasi yun. And like what I've said, nanalo si Pacquiao. Wooohooo. Go Philippines! Yek labo. Ayun lang. Nothing happened much for this day. At oo nga pala, I experienced my first snow today! WEE. :) I loved it. Ang sayaa. Nasa work pa ako nung nalaman kong nagssnow na. Kahit malamig, natuwa pa rin talaga ako. :)
