Uno, Dos, Tres, SINGKO

People's favorite number back in college days is 1 while the least is 5. Simply because 1 or uno stands for a perfect grade and 5 or singko means you failed the subject. But you know what, I don't believe in these numbers nor in grades. Yes, I DON'T BELIEVE IN GRADES.

Our parents were the ones who pressured us that everytime we present them our classcard, they expect high grades that falls either on 1, 1.5, 2, 2.25 and so on. But giving them tres, kwatro or singko will surely followed by endless sermon. Why? Because parents believe that these grades reflects how you fair in your subject... how much you have learned from your university... how good or excellent you are in your comprehension. But I beg to disagree. These numbers do not reflect who am I as a student.

Review: My Sassy Girl

My Sassy Girl is my all time favorite Korean film. This is the only movie I watched twice in just one sitting. There is something on this movie that made this really exceptional. (Let's not talk about the remake of hollywood 'coz it really pisses me off! :)

Simple and funny movie plus a very pretty girl made this movie a truly one of a kind. I wonder if there really are Sassy girls out there just like "the girl" on this movie. For this movie, I would like to share only one... the letter of "the sassy girl" to Gyun-woo. On this letter, revelations kicks in.

This is the letter they buried under the time capsule. The letter speak of what the girl truly feels and the ultimate confessions that explains why she acted like that

This is the letter written by "the girl" to Gyun-woo: (Warning: DO NOT READ!! If you plan to watch the movie. This letter will spoil everything!)

Gyeon-woo! How are you? I was so happy while being with you. I'm not sure if you knew, but the person I loved passed away. The day when I first met you was the day he died a year ago. Actually, I tried to look for him in you. I know it was wrong. I'm sorry. I also met him on the subway like you. I was really sick at that time. He did everything I wanted, like you did to me. Under this tree, we planned our future together. But he suddenly passed away. While I was dating you, I met his mother often. She wanted to introduce a nice man to me, but I couldn't. The day I first met you, I came under this tree, and I prayed to him. To let me free. When I met you, this occurred to me. That maybe... he introduced you to me. But the more I met you, he seemed to grow jealous of you in me. The more I liked you, I felt guilty inside. While the two of us are apart, I want to forget him alone.

This would be one of the best part of the movie. Sadness comes in after an hour of laughter throughout the movie.

Hayskul Layp

Advertisement: Naisip ko lang magpost ng ganitong topic dahil sa sobrang haggard at toxic ngaun sa trabaho ko. Nakakapagod tlga at talaga namang naubos ang energy ko ngaun. Mag SL kaya ako bukas? joke. Kaya isip ako ng isip ng masasayang nangyari sa buhay ko. At naisip ko, ano bang parte ng buhay ko ang pinakapetiks at pinakasimple pero pinakamasaya din... hayskul layf.

Sana balik hayskul na lang ako. Napakasimple ng buhay. Mag-aaral ka lang, hingi baon, puro laro, puro crush! :). Ang saya ng buhay, walang kapressure-pressure 'di tulad ng pagtatrabaho. Lahat ng kalokohan ay una kong natutunan nung sumampa ako ng hayskul, second year hayskul to be specific. Nung first year hayskul kasi matino pa ko hanggang mapasama ako sa barkadang abnormal (pero proud ako sa barkada na 'to na hanggang ngaun ay makakasama pa rin kami).

Sa hayskul ako natutong mag cutting class. Rewarding din 'to eh lalo na pag first time mo ginawa.. todo kaba.. sa titser at sa parents. May mga over d bakod moments pa kami nun. O di kaya naman after lunch eh hindi na bumabalik sa skul.

Experience: Reef Walk

Going back to Boracay... My bestfriends and I had the chance to experience what they call "Helmet Diving" or popularly known as the "Reef Walk." Using a 30 kilo helmet (yes, i am not joking, its a 30... thirty... trenta... tatlumpu) that will be put on top of your head covering your entire head & neck. But don't worry as explained and experienced, the 30 kilo helmet will loose weight when under the sea. The 30 kilos will become a whopping 2 Kilos only! Amazing! Hehe!

Before we tried the helmet diving, we were still half-hearted. The mere fact that it's really scary below and plus the devil's advocate of loosing oxygen supply under. But since its a once in a lifetime experience in Bora, tapang-tapangan kami. 

Once you are under the sea and walking (literally), it was really a wow! You'll get to see fishes surrounding you. And of course, this can't be complete without these things - picture taking and video! 

Here's one of the pictures I wanted to share with you. We were playing "habulang gahasa." Guess who's the loser! :)

And of course I can't end this post without sharing the rate. We were 5 and we got this for P400/head. We were in Boracay last September of this year (off-peak).

Puro Landi

Sadya nga namang naparaming malanding tao sa mundo. Mapababae, mapalalaki. Ito na daw ang "in" ngaun. Kaya nga pati sa social networking tulad ng facebook eh sumikat ang status na "It's complicated" na minsan nauuwi sa "In a relationship" o "In a relationship with ___" kung proud ka. Minsan naman bumabalik sa "single." Naisip ko lang, magsuggest kaya ako sa facebook team ng isa pang status, "Single and complicated," in short puro landi lang ginagawa.

Masama bang lumandi? Eh pano kung ikaw na ang nilalandi, papalandi ka ba o magpapakasuplado ka? hehe!

Eto na nga ata ang bagong trend ng "New Generation" at minsan pinaglaan ni Rizal ng mga katagang "Nasa Kabataan ang pag-asa ng bayan." Ano pa? hindi ba't uso na rin ang baby muna bago kasal? Na kung salitang kalye lang eh ang tawag natin jan eh "disgrasya" o di nakapagingat o "natyambahan." Araykupo!

Maswerte din naman ung iba na pinapanagutan ng lalaki ang sarap na pinagsaluhan nila na sunod naman ay hirap sa maagang pagaasawa, lalo na ang maagang parenthood. Masakit isipin na pababa ng pababa ang age bracket ng mga taong nagiging magulang na... isama mo pa ang pataas ding trend ng "single parents." Hindi bat narevise na din ang batas patungkol sa pagpapangalan sa anak ng mga single parents? Maaari ng isunod sa apelyido ng babae ang anak na hindi na pinagutan ng abnormal na lalaki.

Eto, eto na ang salamin ng kabataan ngaun. Ikaw makikiuso ka ba?

Ayeeee! :)

Kung iyong mamarapatin

Ringgin ang puso kong isa lang ang hiling

Iyong ipadama sa akin ang lambing

Sure ako, sa tuwa ako'y mapapatumbling! :)

Tinamaan ang puso kong talaga namang

Iyong iyo, binihag mo pa!

Nariyan at nakalimbag, pangalan mo ata

Ewan ko ba anong taglay mong hiwaga?

Alam ko na kung bakit ba ganyan

Nahihilo at nalilito na naman

Oras ay lumilipas at hindi namamalayan

Relo ko'y tumitigil pag ika'y kakwentuhan

Ay ewan! san ba ito patungo?

Buhayin mo sana ang natutulog kong mundo

Eh kung ikaw na lang kaya ang mundo ko?

Nanaisin mo bang umikot ang buhay ko sayo?

Bow.

Pigil-pigil

Naranasan mo na bang sumakay sa elevator? 

Naranasan mo na bang sumakay sa elevator at may nakasabay ka na chick?

Naranasan mo ba bang sumakay sa elevator, makasabay ang isang chick at mawalan ng power supply?...

Pwes ako hindi pa. Hehe!

Pero ninais ko na ding mangyari sakin yan. Para bang sa mga pelikula ko lang napapanood yan. Napakaswerte ko siguro na kahit na matrap ka sa loob ng elevator eh chicks naman ang kasama mo.. malay mo may mangyari! Haha! Magkadevelopaaannn.. eto.

Pero naisip mo na ba na ang pinakamakasalanang parte ng tao ay ang pagiisip? Oo. Isang salita para maniwala ka... Pantasya.

Sino ba namang kalalakihan jan ang hindi nagpantasya kung kanino... at derechuhin na natin.. malaswang pantasya! Haha! O db db? umagree ka! lahat naman ata nagdaan sa ganyan.. May crush ka pero may pinapantasya ka din...

"Madalas kayong magtagpo sa iyong isip sa tuwing nagiisa ka't nalulumbay o di kaya naman ay wala kang magawa.. brownout at madilim ang paligid. Madalas mo din ciang kamustahin bago ka maligo. Sinisilip mo ang mapula niang labi at hinahawakan sa iyong isip ang bundok ng pagnanasa... Hindi ka pa nakuntento at pilit ding pinasok ang kagubatan na halos ikaligaw mo na... Ikawala ng iyong ulirat... feel na feel mo at halos ayaw mo na matapos sapagkat sa muka niay bakas ang kaligayahan na animo'y gustong-gusto din niya. Hayan na, malapit... ang climax ng inyong pagkikita.. hanggang sa muli aking pantasya."

Kung bitay lang ang katapat ng maduming pagiisip ay malamang konti na lang ang populasyon sa mundo. Kung nababasa lang natin ang isip ng bawat isa malamang ay isa din ako sa kahiya-hiyang haharap sa'yo. Ayoko magmalinis at gusto kong magpakatotoo. Galing na ko jan at di ko din masabi kung tapos na ko sa ganyang istilo ng pagiisip. 

Sadya nga namang makasalanan ang tao..

Sa isip, sa salita, ngunit wag naman sana sa gawa! :D

Would you kill someone just to prove you're right?

What do you think? Would you?..

Mizundaztood

People always argue with different things. Be it academic, politics, showbiz, economics, relationships or any topic under the sun. But have you think why we did so? I know for years that you lived your life in this cruel world of us, you encountered people you have conflicts with. There's your sister, your brother, your parents, your friends, your girlfriend/boyfriend, ex-gf/bf's, your teacher, the mean girls, the mean boys?:), a stranger, etc. Soon, they'll become your enemies, which I hope not.

I believe that the root of people's continuous conflicts and arguments is due to misunderstanding. If people learns to communicate and empathize, there would be no fights and misunderstanding. I know that each of us have their own set of thinking and views in life... but its not about who wins and who concedes, it's about learning to accept the fact that you cannot persuade everybody. Learn to respect and I am sure, respect will be offered back to you.

Think about it, why do relationships never last? Isn't because of miscommunications? If they just sit for awhile and talk about their problems emphatically, will they broke up? I guess the answer would be not. Think about breakthroughs, email and text messaging increases the chance of misunderstanding and misinterpretations. With just an incorrect choose of words, it creates a perception, which in turn becomes a conclusions. It really happens.

I know that misunderstanding is already part of human life cycle and something that we cannot avoid. But it would be best if we try to understand the people we have conflicts with... think where they are coming and why do they think that way. Do not persuade them, instead understand them.

Do want to live an entire life without peace of mind?

I don't want to.

Am I really?

A big "sigh.." to start this post!

No, you are wrong! It is a sigh not of disappointment or frustration but of happy thoughts.. that I wanted to share to anyone who's willing to devote a couple of their time reading this nonsense work of mine. :)

How can you know if you are inspired? It's a pretty simple question that you may think anyone can answer including myself. I would assume it really is coz I know all the answer that will come out of your mouth sincerely came from your heart... plus a big smiling face! Haha!

I have once wondered why suddenly I wanted to come to work on time, do my daily task without complaining (which we usually do.. hehe!) and thinks positive all the time despite the hassle things surrounding me. I searched for the answer and this word pop out in my head just like an invisible bubble - INSPIRED.

I think, therefore I am.

She may have the bitter smile among them but why do I see it as the sweetest... I wonder. I think I have a crush on you. Don't get me wrong, at my age, crushes still exist. Don't argue with me.. haha!

It is your...

...shiny long black hair that I keep staring with.

...eyes that I always dream to look at me.

...hands and fingers that I wish to get lock with mine.

...smile that I adore with.

...text messages that I kept on my inbox.

...emails that I always wait crashing on my mailbox.

...get-up that was so fashionably in.

...moody attitude that keeps me going crazy. lols.

I know this is not my normal self. So am I really inspired?

"God damn stop asking that, you idiot!" ~my evil conscience >:)
