Say Mo Cow? -el?

Piolo Pascual’s story when he was just starting out in Showbiz: (Im not one of Papa-P’s-fans by the way). He said he went to Boy Abunda and asked to be managed. Piolo said Boy sort of just blankly stared at him, studied him briefly with little interest and said something like “Pag siguro pinaayos mo ng konti yang mukha mo, yang balat mo, and yung hitsura mo, siguro then…tsaka mo ko balikan’. In short Boy denied him - he failed to recognize Piolo’s potentials.
Anyways…yes, while the world is a social pool of critics, where you are always being measured and pschyo-analyzed somehow, some way -
Today I realized that the people whose opinions really count dont have to be the-Simon-Cowells (or Boy-Abundas) in this world, they are actually simply those who we thought would at least appreciate us.
Its like a little kid holding up a picture of a stick-person she drew of you. She’s not asking you to tell her ‘Wow you can be the next Van Gogh’. Geez. Sometimes maybe she just simply wanted to make you happy, if you could appreciate that… unfortunately you were too busy playing Simon Cowell.

Deadly Blow

Music pasok: "tugsh ♪ tugsh ♫ tugsh ♪"

I dont normally buy tabloid newspapers. But the other morning, I bought a copy. The headline in all caps and bold red font made me do it. (- or maybe the Cornetto did.)

It said "BAKLA NAUTAS SA P20 NA ORAL SEX".

Immediately, the Cornetto Ice Cream TV Ads-Commercial played in my head where this party guy was trying to get in a bar...so he hands the bouncer 20 Pesos and the bouncer starts to beat box 'tugsh tugsh tugsh' and then flickers his flashlight on the guy while telling him to dance. The ad comes with the line "Saan Aabot ang BENTE PESOS mo?"

I guess... apparently, aside from a Cornetto Ice Cream...one can also avail a blow job, earn a bullet in your face and a death certificate. :/

~From the tabloid paper: 'Buhay ang naging kapalit nang paniningil ng P20 ng isang baklang pipi sa ginawa nitong oral sex sa isang sekyu matapos na bayaran siya ng bala sa ulo, naganap kahapon ng madaling araw sa Tondo, Maynila'

You blew the guy for 20 pesos. He took your life for 20 pesos. :(

Justice is not served at:

'Naaresto agad ang suspek, na si ----- , may asawa, security guard ....etc'

Justice is served, maybe... when finally, poverty is alleviated.

Sa Panig ng Kontrabida

Sumasakit ang ulo ko.

Ito na ang isa sa mga alam kong ikagagalit ng opinyon ng marami. Well kung di kayo agree sa akin, okay lang ganito talaga ang buhay, may kontra may kampi.


Ganun talaga sa love. Minsan ikaw ang bida, minsan ikaw ang kontrabida, minsan ikaw ang api.

Be ready to take on all roles.

AT MALALAMAN NIYONG WALA NI ISA SA KANILA ANG MADALING GAMPANAN-WALA.

Hindi niyo man magampanan lahat ng ito in your lifetime, lets say hindi mo na try maging kontrabida, good for you, but you still have to consider the possibility, you have to consider na may ganyan, it doesnt mean na dahil hindi directly nangyari sa iyo that its not real or that it doesnt happen in a normal world and na may karapatan ka, na may alam ka para makealam. CONSIDER.

Simula pa noong unang panahon hindi naman nabago ang mga kwento ng hiwalayan.
Its just not working anymore. There's someone else. Im sorry. Hindi na kita mahal. Things changed. Your bf is a dog. Your gf is whore. LAHAT NG NANG IWAN GUSTO NIYO PAPUNTAHIN SA HELL. OO na ikaw na kawawa, ikaw na bida, ikaw na mabuting tao. Ikaw na ang tama. Sana makarma sila. Sana mapunta sila sa panget or kung panget ka rin sa mas panget. Sana mag hirap sila. Sana maputulan sila ng kuryente. etc.

Hindi ko sinasabing bawal mong ipaalam na masakit, na ang hirap at na galit ka.
Wala namang pumapasok sa pag ibig ang nagplano na o nag se set ng expiry date or time kung kelan sila maghihiwalay, lahat naman tayo akala natin 'this is it'.

When they leave you after you tried everything to make them stay, let them go. You cannot make them stay just to keep yourself happy, to keep your dream protected, because then you're probably no better than them, they just want to be where they could be happy as well, they go sometimes because yes they dont deserve you, you dont deserve them, its for the best oo punyeta pati yang its for the best totoo yan.

Im sorry. The truth is you dont have to deserve pain in order to get hurt, in fact it hurts also because you didnt really deserve it. But this is life.

Ipagdadamot mo ba yon.
OO na ikaw na dakila sa pagibig.

Black Holes

Like forceful Black Holes in the beauty of space,

And fireflies, suicidal in pursuit of bliss,

Each kiss condemn me fearful and helpless,

And all passion replaces the blood in my veins,

They run me, secretly they run me.

But then I do not care at all,

When we are so close,

To being black holes and suicidal fireflies.

You haunt me just as I haunt you,

But we are perfect for it,

No secret was ever more clandestinely mutual,

No touch had ever been so warm

yet cold at the same time

Than that which we do not share.

Than that which should not exist.

I wrote this last June 3, 2009 and included this in this semester's school paper. =)
