One of those nights

Went to Megamall yesterday with Jon. watched a movie, ate at Greenwich, beat his ass at Tekken 3 & 4, usual stuffs huh?

here's something new:

** paid a premier ticket at the movie house but Jon rushed me and ran away from the security guard so we can sit at the balcony. I was scared but then, the guard didnt bother to look for us or ask for our tickets. Haha.

** one token got jammed in the Tekken 3 slot so Jon asked help to get it and move to another so we can play Tekken 4. Jon lost, as always. But then, he actually got credits still after he lost in our match, without putting in new tokens. I think we had 4 rounds of free game. Hehe.

** Bumped into Vanessa and Bong. Didnt recognized Bong at first. Late reaction na naman ako. Hehe. I told Vane right then and there. Miss ko yun bruhang yun. Kakaiba pa ngumiti.

Yun lang.

Camela texted me asking if tuloy ba daw gimik ngaun. Si Jon namiss uminom hehe kaya ayun nagpunta kami Villalon. And of course, what would be Villalon if Jon wont sing? Buti isa lang kinanta niya. hehe. The most famous Bring Me to Life.

Mark and Camela arrived by 12 na ata. We were supposed to go to Anthology but it was raining so hard. Bakit ba pag friday ng gabi lagi na lang umuulan?

Mga 230am ata kami lumipat sa Anthology, nakailang wapak.
Masaya na naman ang gabi.
Went home 5am.

Got a ring from Jon.
Wala man lang surprise.
Anyway, ganda siya.

Masaya kaya birthday ko sa tuesday?

sadness.

what is sadness?

going home alone.
worried sick.
lack of sleep.
no one at home.
no payslip.
hungry.
its a secret.
death.

Go ahead

Some things never change.
Some do.
Not just things.
But feelings.

If you dont believe me,
Fine.

Regrets.
All have one.
You did too.
But its over.

I threw it away.
Why?
I dont need it.
Not now.
Not again.

Why did you see it?
I dont know.

But its gone.
I wont go back.
Never.
Not again.

Im here now.
Past is past.
Here is now.
Nowness.

Time is precious.
Mine is yours.
Now.
Cant you see?
Cant you feel?

There's doubt.
I know.
I told you.

If you dont believe me,
Fine.

It was sad.
It was stupid.
It was all gone.

No intention.
Going back.
Never again.

Words are words.
It destroys.
It kills.

Words are precious.
I dont say it.
But I do.

Dont ask anyone.
No one knows.
No one but you.
And me.

But if you dont believe me,
Fine.

It hurts.
Like hell.

Now I can feel.
I do.
I want to.
Ill get over it.
I promise.

Believe me.
Give me time.
I will.

Anthology

I was at Anthology, Malate with Avy last night.
was supposed to go to QC but it pours like hell so we decided not to. Avy arrived by 9pm. Sheez. was about to fall asleep 'cause I havent got any at all. Anyway, we were there t the most famous Anthology, where dreams come true and hearts are broken.. Hehe.

At the bar we had 2 Wapax and squid which sizzles to the bone, hehe. Then we took our drinks to a nearby available table (wow, it rhymes!). Suddenly Mark texted me and said that hes at Marlon's asking where is this so-called Anthology. (I just like to repeat the name over and over..)

And then there he was. The one who's been texting and calling me at home which my mother thought was 'Marge'. Avy's bestfriend. He's okay. At least, we met up. So ayun.

Then we, again took our drinks to an available couch at the side of the bar where it was cozy and had good lighting, like youre up for an investigation in the dark quarters of the Manila City Jail. May kalbo naman kami kasama eh. hehe.

By 4am, we saw Cooky Chua (as always), waiting for her ride together with her bandmates (I think). Senglot na ang lola mo.

Getting ready to go home.. Then the rain suddenly pours like hell. Again. Huwaaaahhhh!

Took a cab. First destination, of course, my house.
I texted him. No reply. Waited all night. Hope he's fine.

Anyway, it was a nice night to have.
Met someone new.
Saw Cooky again.
Had to transfer tables twice.
Was hit by the rain.
Headache.
More headache.

The color of my life

Some people are always grumbling because roses have thorns.
I am thankful that thorns have roses.. -Alphonse Kerr

You're a thorn in everyone's life.
No one wants to touch you.
You bring pain.

Me? I'd be glad to grasp tightly until blood squeezes out from my hand than never to feel that thorn which makes the rose strong.

Red.

wala akong kwarto..

alaala ng lumuluhang kahapon..
pinipilit ko na ring kinakahon.

natagpuan ko na ang tunay kong ligaya..
lumabas ako ng kwarto't naroon siya.

Rockestra

When Two Musical Worlds Collide
by Kristine Lim

When an immovable object like classical music meets an irresistible force like indie rock the results are nothing short of explosive.

ROCKESTRA brings together six of the Manila's finest rock bands and the prestigious Manila Symphony Orchestra.

Forget what you think you know about classical music. ROCKESTRA will coax it out of its dusty old box, polish it shiny and new and make it ready for the future, with a little help from our local rock scene.

Imago, Cambio, Sandwich, Silent Sanctuary, Sugarfree, and TwistedHalo will share the stage with the MSO in a mind-blowing collaboration that will happen on August 19, Friday at the Tanghalang Francisco Balagtas (formerly Folk Arts Theater) at 7:30 p.m.

And while you're imagining that: Imagine buying yourself a ticket to ROCKESTRA, telling all your friends about it, showing up at Folk Arts Theater and having the best night you will ever have in your entire life. Now quit imagining and go buy the ticket. Leave your top hat and tails at home. The dress code is strictly smartly caustic.

Tickets priced at Php 975/ 630/ 350/ 175/ 75.
Tickets are available at the CCP Ticket Booth, major National Bookstore branches, robinson's Department Store (Malate, Galleria, Cavite & Pampanga), Tower Records (Makati and Alabang), Music Museum (Virra Mall, Greenhills), Ayala Center Inc.

Unplugged

at long last.
after 4 weeks of sleepin off those friday nights, i had a nice one last night.
went to malate with mark & jon.

we picked up Mark at Makati.

T'was was a beautiful night!

I wasnt expecting to see anyone that I know of except the ones I'm with.

1. He who juggles everyone's mind, blabbing about her babies who cant even get their complete nourishment. What do you expect from a mother who would rattle her children's minds and expect a perfect job well done.

2. He who is the source of power of everyone in my present unmotivated world that I kept on living in for the sake of existence whom I am not sure if he has the mind to carry that power.

3. He who has been so truly, madly, crazily in desperate measures to capture back the knight in shining armor waiting for that day that he will be taken to that castle far away.

Gosh. Markdown on choice of words. Too much.

Of course, would my dear companion let the night pass by without him holding the microphone and crying his voice out? Not!

Mark & Jon did a videoke ensemble at Villalon.
Went to unplugged. Cooky Chua was there. Close na ata sila ni Jon eh. Hehe.

Jon sang Santeria. Whatever that means. It was good. Di kasi namin marinig.
But it was good. Just within his range.

Si Mark ang kulit. Hay naku. Pero ok kasama.

Masaya ang gabi.
Nagkainuman.
Kwentuhan.
Tawanan.

Gabi ng Parangal.
Kailan kaya mauulit?

Oh btw, I received a white rose. Cool huh.
