stole

when: friday, 30th of dec
where: DIVI
why: gown-hunting slash shopping (well, sort of!)
with whom: mom
what: read on...
how: keep your eyes glued...


hmmm. basic questions you ask in the event of a theft. yup, you read that right, theft.
i wouldn't go around the bush anymore. the unfortunate thing had happened.

why me, of all people!?!

my phone got stolen. my bad. darn it! why oh why??? just when i was able to get a hold on a high-tech, up-to-date mobile phone. a flip phone at that! what makes it worse.. it's a gift from my parents. a grad gift! talk about sentimental value. plus, it didn't last me longer than a year! the thing is only 7 months old. oh gahd. oh well. let's say, im overeacting. but forgive me. i just think that it's a bit surreal. i was able to keep a 3210 nokia model for my entire college life, while this sweet phone. east-asian inspired didn't last me that long.

may i just quote my cousin saying,
"pare, ang ingat mo pa nman sa phone. good as new yun, db?"

exactly! my phone didn't even have major scratches. it barely fell of my hands.
the phone was very well taken care of.
gahd. and it was taken away from me. just like that.
a valuable lesson learned. never go to divi with your most-priced possession. NEVER!

good-bye text life. boohoo.
well, i'm sulking not only for the loss of that gadget.
but also because i'm currently cut off the circuit!
that's what hurts even more. haha. i bet you didn't see that coming.
i lost all my contacts. good grief! thank god i was on a post-paid plan. people could still track me. all i have to do is ask around for their numbers. talk about major h-a-s-s-l-e. haaay.

"naku. baka iniisip NIYA na tinataguan mo na SIYA!"
funny that my cousin even thought of that. but come to think of it. maybe HE thought i'm running away from him. oh gahd. too bad. i don't even know his number by heart.
there's no way for us to keep in touch. cut off.
darn it. would mental telepathy work?!? asa pa!

oh yeah! he knows my number at home.

"miday, tumawag SIYA. sinabi ko umalis kayong family."
great! talk about PERFECT timing. oh well.


great. just great. no phone. cut off the circuit. cut off. cut off.
couldn't get messages from anyone. and that includes HIM. great. wonderful. awesome.
sucks. big time.

********

well, i know that this shiiitt had happened.
but believe it or not, i have learned a valuable lesson from it...

you shouldn't feel too attached to tangible things for they would one day slip your hand.
with or without you knowing.

never. NEVER. bring pricey things to places like DIVI. NE-VER! better safe than sorry.
my dad said that the ratio of thieves to vendors is like one-to-one. or two-to-one.
you do the math! and besides, they've made stealing their way of living. poor them. poor us.

keep a book of contacts. exert some effort writing people's digits down. you'd never know when you'll actually need them. it would be very useful.

don't play (too much) hard-to-get. u'd wind up missing whoever. especially if the only thing that keeps you in touch was taken away. too bad. how would things be now?!?

despite the ugly circumstance, choose to look on the brighter side of things.
weren't you grateful that you didn't get hurt in the process?!? that your phone was the only thing that was taken from you?!? come on. think about.

did i say a valuable lesson... make that valuable lessonS, with an emphasis on S! hehe:D

sweet thang

goodmorningsandgoodnights. soup into my bowl... sweet little things you do.
odd moments. almost fell off the stairs. "oops, manhole!"

constant reminder: "bring out your charm through your smile".

"you're simply beautiful. i commend you to be a star... starapple!"

dining. bonding sessions. walks home. late night foodtrips.
spur-of-the-moment phone calls.
i miss you's. mga palipad hangin. sudden touches*sparks fly.

awkward stares. me looking away. you laughing out of shy-ness (???)

dancin' together. i don't know how! it's okay, i just want to dance with you...

exchanged candles. for loveandsupport. shook hands. soft peck on the cheek.

you held my hand... we both turned red... i didn't want to look...

manito-manita. i got you (technically). revelation came. you were so shocked.

handed you the gift. kissed on the cheek. hugged tightly. onlookers wondered.
we both blushed.

bonding moments. gently caught my hand. gave it a light massage.
couldn't speak. talked through nods and abrupt replies. face docked on a pillow.

thankful for the time spent together. embarrassed by the turn of events.

preciousmoments. people starting to notice.

what's in it for them?

insects. lame jokes. what not.

\insects/

nytnyt
Gudnyt. sleep tyt. don't let the bedbugs byt. ngek! Ang corny.
Ok lang ko kagatin basta ikaw ang bedbug. ngeeeee!
Gawin daw ba akong surot?!? bedbug... surot un noh! haha.
Second na bloodsucking insect ang bedbug. Pero anong insect gusto mo if ever?
Hmm. ayokong maging insect noh! Pero if ever, ayoko ng butterfly kasi common un. praying mantis na lang kasi ngppray. hehe.
Nagppray..?! salbahe rin kaya ang mga mantis. ako butterfly, para makadapo sa mga magagandang bulaklak na gaya mo. hehehehe.
Un nga, exactly. pra hindi halatang salbahe. hehe. ano namang hirit yang sa butterfly ha?
Wala lang, pacute lang yon. hehehehehe...

Gudnyt doesn't rily mean, "cge, antok nako!"
it's one of d ppl's shy way of saying,

"I'm thinking of you before i sleep."

Gudnyt!

So, what are you trying to say? Is that what i do or you're telling me that?
I sent it to you kasi lagi kang nag-ggudnyt. (patama daw b?!?)

some parts are missing...

Cge na nga. Gudnyt. whatever it means.
thankful nga ako sayo e... for the smyl... nytnyt. im thinking of you...hehehe.

were you seriously asking what smooth talker meant?

yup.

smooth talker: refers to someone who often uses flowery and sugar-coated words in speaking or expressing own self. bluffer? pde. in short, bolero!

\fin/

MOODra. why not?!?

hmm. im not supposed to do what im doing right now.
(Read: you have to finish drafting your budget report due monday. tsk tsk. bad, middy!)

oh well. walang pakialaman. hehe. i do have priorities... let's say, im NOT YET in the mood for that. attention-shifting? perhaps...


MOOD. speaking of mood. there are some things i've noticed in myself since i left home.
promise. and it weirds me out.

I seem like i'm not my "normal" self anymore.
hindi ko naman sinabi na abnormal ako pero basta. People who truly know me are VERY MUCH AWARE of my attitude.
Si Miday: mataray. masungit. suplada. antipatika. prangka...
i've heard it all. and i have somehow become numb to those derogatory words. well, they may seem true.. only if I don't consider you a friend. haha. well. impressions lang yan na meron minsang manifestations.
Pwede kaya na meron ring kasawaan ang taray phase ko?!? lately, I've noticed that that side of me no longer surfaces anymore. Could it be that my being in the province changed me?!? Totoo kaya ang sinabi ng parents ko na bumait na ako?!? Well, only God knows.

Feeling ng mga tao (read: my colleagues) na nasa loob ang kulo ko.
well. let's just say that i'm still testing the water. kung alam lang nila. *laughs scornfully*
i think it's a disadvantage that i do not entirely understand their dialect. my bad.
in fairness, nakakasakay nako kahit papano. oh well, mababaw akong tao. at cowgirl rin ako. di nga lang halata!
they think i'm such a goody-goody. which is NOT good, by the way. well, not entirely.
i see myself as a good girl.. but i'm not all that good! haha:D

kung alam lang nila. hahahaha.


POINTS TO CONSIDER...

**hindi ka umiinom?
umiinom ako.
water. soda. iced tea. fruit juice. shake. coffee. (come on! don't you dare whack me on the face. haha!)
well, i do drink. pero minimal lang. mga ilang shots lang. i stop whenever i feel whoooozy already.
hindi ko ata pinangarap malasing! AND I DON'T DRINK BEER. well, until two days ago. tsk tsk.
get this. i usually just have a few swigs of it coz i don't like its bitter taste. pero yun nga, i was able to finish a whole bottle of it... realizing that it's not that bitter at all.
nako. right now, im thinking of the song, laklak..
"nagsimula sa patikim-tikim. pinilit kong gustuhin. bisyo'y nagsimulang lumalim. kaya't ngayon, kay hirap tangalin..."
naku. this is bad. i know. i should stop before i get soo stuck in this sinking sand. one bottle.
becomes two...AND then i realized, hanggang dalawa lang ang kaya ko.
so there. i learned my lesson. hehe. hindi ko talaga pinangarap malasing.
i never wanted to have that wasted feeling. yiiikes. sabog-ness.

i do drink. but in moderation.. and depends on the people im with.


**never kang nagka-boyfriend?!?
oh well. the perennial question to a thing that is my life. haay.
oo. wala nga akong boyfriend. i never got into a serious relationship.
i never got into any relationship at that.
but i had my fair share at love. or at least, i consider it as one. (or two?)
i admit... i miss the feeling. oh well. love life.
lovelife. crushlife. pathetic!
right now. i may say that there IS something. or someone?
could it be that my non-existent lovelife.. was awaken from a long slumber?

i patiently await for my white knight. one day our paths would cross.
i know. it's too idealistic of me. but i do believe that God's best man for me is very well on his way.. haay.


**virgin ka pa?!?
i seriously cracked up when asked this question.
it's not that i already got laid. come on!
oo. virgin pa ako! never been kissed. never been touched. and i choose to be!
but don't think that i am all that ignorant...
fine. i do not know the nitty-gritty details.. but i do have a clue, okay?
sa UP ako nag-aral. napaka-liberal ng kaisipan sa pamantasan na yon. at pati ang mga tao ay liberal.
kanya-kanya lang yan. i can openly converse about such things but that's it.

well, i choose to save that precious part of me for THE man i would share my forever with.
i know. idealistic me. two points.


**magalit ka naman!!!
kung alam lang nila. how hot-headed i truly am.
actually, i couldn't seem to reconcile that known fact to what is actually happening right now.
ewan ko! ambot! baka nga totoo na bumabait na ako? kukunin na ba ako ni Lord?
well, maybe God is teaching me to be patient. Lord, thank you:*

wag kayong mag-alala. magagalit ako. kung nasa lugar at kagalit-galit talaga ang sitwasyon.
ayoko ng heart attack at cancer noh! i would voice out my emotions in the right place at the right time.



social drinker.
no boyfriend since birth. virgin and i choose to be.
hot-headed no more.

do i know who i truly am?
maybe i'm just a hard nut to crack.
i do not easily warm up to the people around me.


MOOD. changes. plays a factor. to this thing we call LIFE.
aack. cheesyness... drama ever!
