ilove RJA!



What Im Listening to right now:

Red Jumpsuit Apparatus


"Cat and Mouse"
Softly we tremble tonight,
picture perfect fading smiles are all that's left in site,

I said I'd never leave you'll never change
I'm not satisfied with where I'm at in life.

Am I supposed to be happy?
With all I ever wanted, it comes with a price.
Am I supposed to be happy?
With all I ever wanted, it comes with a price.
You said, you said that you would die for me�.

We made plans to grow old,
believe me there was truth in all those stories that I told.
Lost in a simple game cat and mouse are we the same people as before this came to light?

[Cat and Mouse lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]

Am I supposed to be happy?
with all I ever wanted, it comes with a price.
Am I supposed to be happy?
with all I ever wanted, it comes with a price.
You said, you said that you would die for me�

You must live for me too'...
For me too...yeah, yeah�
You said that you would die for me�

Am I supposed to be happy?
with all I ever wanted, it comes with a price.
Am I supposed to be happy?
with all I ever wanted, it comes with a price
You said, you said that you would die for me



"False Pretense"

Oh, it's time to let it go


The world's got a funny way of turning 'round on you
When a friend tries to stab you right in the face
Losing faith in everything I thought I hoped I knew

Don't sweat it, {it was} set on false pretense

Betrayed but not gonna be willing to change
And it doesn't seem likely to fade
Betrayed but not gonna be willing to change
Cu-cu-cu-cuz you know...

It's sacrifice
False pretense you'll hurt again
Stop pretending to deny
False pretense you'll hurt again

All along you know you thought you got the best of me
{But} you were wrong and I'm laughing right in your face
I cannot believe you claimed you were my family
Don't sweat it - it's set on false pretense

Betrayed but not gonna be willing to change
And it doesn't seem likely to fade
Betrayed but not gonna be willing to change

Cu-cu-cu-cuz you know...

It's sacrifice
False pretense you'll hurt again
Stop pretending to deny
False pretense you'll hurt again

[Spoken:] guitar

Oh, it's time to let it go

I can't seem to understand it how you turned out to be so cold
You tried but were caught red handed, are you happy with your role?
It's funny to me how you've turned into such a joke...

It's sacrifice

False pretense you'll hurt again
Stop pretending to deny
False pretense you'll hurt again

So play the game until you run out
And play the game into my hand


"Your Guardian Angel"

When I see your smile,
Tears run down my face.
I can't replace.
And now that I'm strong, I have figured out,
How this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul.
And I know I'll find deep inside me,
I can be the one.

I will never let you fall. (let you fall.)
I'll stand up with you forever.
I'll be there for you through it all. (through it all.)
Even if saving you sends me to heaven.

It's okay.
It's okay.
It's okay-e-ay-e-ay.

Seasons are changing,
And waves are crashing,
And stars are falling all for us.
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter,
I can show you I'll be the one

I will never let you fall. (let you fall.)
I'll stand up with you forever.
I'll be there for you through it all. (through it all.)
Even if saving you sends me to heaven.
[Your Guardian Angel lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]


'Cause you're my, you're my, my-e-y-e-y,
My true love, my whole heart.
Please don't throw that away.
'Cause I'm here... for you!
Please don't walk away and,
Please tell me you'll stay... here!

Whoa-oh!
Stay!
Whoa-oh!

Use me as you will!
Pull my strings just for a thrill!
And I know I'll be okay,
Though my skies are turning gray! (gray! gray!)

I will never let you fall!
I'll stand up with you forever!
I'll be there for you through it all,
Even if saving you sends me to heaven!

I will never let you fall!
I'll stand up with you forever!
I'll be there for you through it all,
Even if saving you sends me to heaven! (fade out)

A Hell of a Project!

"four more eye wrinkles. one humongous pimple. jeopardized friendship. madapakingshet."


grabeh yang business communication project na yan. buti nalang at marami kaming koneksyon ni bene (kagrupo) dahil kung hindi pa baka nawindang na pagkatao namin..
thank you gene galano for the logo of 1delaPop. nice naman diba?





Company profile and concept courtesy of Bene de Ramos.

Heavily influenced by the Western state of mind, the stigma of being aficionados of anything but local is what inspired 1delaPop’s promulgators. Witnessing the potential that local brands are slowly getting, they decided to put up a business that would answer the need for promoting Pinoy culture and the Asian way of life in an avant garde vibe. Since coffee shops are gaining steady popularity, they have decided to bring this idea into a higher notch.

It is dubbed as “The Ultimate Pinoy Pop Cult CafĂ©.” It is a coffee shop that is famous for its signature IcedBarako Coffee Float

The
Kapeng Barako drink became
the vital element of the promulgators’ vision. Since the said drink possesses a distinctive Pinoy character on its own, this has been the perfect brew that 1delaPop mainly serves.

(syempre galing lang sa net yang image!)

hayyy.. napakaswerto ko sa mga kaibigan ko.... as in.. salamat kay nika layson sa napakalupit niang flyers na ginawa.... try ko lang na ma-upload dito dahil mga 2MB ung size nung dalawa.. kahit si ehzel nagoffer ng kanyang skills for me...

Ice Cream Mended our Broken Hearts


my cousin kye called up sunday afternoon. gala daw kami. without hesitation, of course sugod na sa mall. its very seldom that we go out, since im too busy with my life and so is she.

broken hearted ang loka. ewan ko ba dun. since last week pa, problematic na sila ng ka-on niya. and i cant give any advice, because what her girlfriend has done to her is very similar to what i have done to my boyfriend of 4 years...

pero as always, there was no dull moments... tawa parin kami ng tawa.. reminisce kami ng mga sad events sa buhay namin, at pinapasaya namin sarili namin... like when our uber cool tita melds passed away, pinagkwentuhan namin yung different kinds of pag-iyak naming magpipinsan...

may themesong pa nga kami kay tita, Biglaan by 6 cycle mind!


ayon.. tawanan lang... tipong biglang kakanta ng "What you know bawt me, watcha watcha knoe bawt me?!" alam mo yung song na un? saka soulja boy, "Crank Dat Song" with matching dance mubs pa ah...

haaay... tawanan to the max...

pero ayon... watch movie (national treasure, at feel na feel ko na belong ako sa intellectual crowd) tas may soulmate pa ko dun.. kasabay ko pumasok ng mall, hottie talaga, mag-isa lang siya! tas kasabay bumili ng ticket for the same flick, kasabay pumasok at ahoy! close to where we sat din siya! we also left the cinema at the same time....... nauna siya konti, tas ayon, bumalik para mag-cr... sabi ko nga paglabas ko, pagandun parin siya, siguro soulmate ko un.. kaso wala eh... joke time lang pala... actually mukha din siyang bading.. hehehehehe

hayy.. we ate ice cream to at least treat ourselves and make us forget about our bleeding hearts...

kye still went with me sa bahay, grabe, nagka-accident pa nga yung jeep na sinakyan namin.... as in nagblast yung gulong, pati ream sira! grabeh...

dat night, kye and her gf talked.. at ako din.. i spoke with "him". G. hayy.. i missed him. he broke up with me 2 weeks ago, january 2. usap kami, kamustahan at nung mapuputol na yung call, "iloveu, iloveu, iloveu, iloveu....................END CALL"

badtrip.

"Am i, supposed to be happy, when all i ever wanted, comes with a price?" -Cat and Mouse, Red Jumpsuit Apparatus

naguguluhan ako. Do i want him back? kasi he came back to me na. and i did not feel anything. partly happy, kasi he's been a part of my life na for almost 5months... pero wala eh.... kung ganon nga, eh puro kalkohan lang naman..... anong bearing non?

ahh..kelan kaya ulit kami mag-ice cream ni te kye?

How to Get a Passport


1. Wake up very, very. very. very early.

I alarmed my phone at around 5am and as expected I forgot to enable the alarm! stupid! Buti nalang tumawag si ate madel at tinanong kung nakabihis naraw ako? Argh! With husky and bedroom voice sabi ko, “shet, ate, kagigising ko palang! Di na ko makakasabay sa DFA!”

Dali-dali akong naligo at nagbihis, at inantay si Mami Ely, tita ko na sasama sakin sa Department of Foreign Affairs.

2. Kung magpapahatid sa sasakyan, magpasabi beforehand.

Ang ibig sabihin ng beforehand, ilang araw bago ang pag-alis, hindi ilang minuto bago umalis. Ayan tuloy, wala ang driver at kahit insan kong si Kuya Henry, tulog na tulog pa. Haller, alas-6 ng umaga kaya yon…

Ayan, back to commuters na ulit! Argh! At as usual, alas-6 ng umaga, tayuan na sa bus. Naknamputs….at diyos ko, daming aksidente, me sumabit sa railings ng tulay, may nasagasaang bata! Ano ba yan! Alas-6 ng umaga?!!!

3. Pag karating sa DFA, siguraduhing pipila sa tamang linya.

Alas-siyete ng umaga, mula sa gate ng DFA hanggang sa gate ng AIMS.. isaw ang pila! Literal.. alas-7 na iyon at sa Courtesy lane kami pumila. Yun nga, yung mula sa main gate hanggang gate ng AIMS. Yung individual passport lane, sa gate 2, gilid ng DFA, ganoon din, mula sa gilid, isaw din ang pila na nagpang-abot sa AIMS…

Mga 8:00 na ng nagpapasok ang DFA, kapkap dito, check ng bag at haripas na ng takbo sa second floor para magpalista at kumuha ng number. Swak! Number ko, 168
(hala parang mall.. diba swerte daw yun sa mga Chinese?) may quota kasi sa courtesy lane, hanggang 300 persons lang.

Nakalagay sa papel ko, due to heavy influx, we will be able to accommodate you around 11 to 12 nn. Nyerrr.. 8am na yon, tas 11am pa ko maacomodate. Hay buhay!

Sumapit ang alas-10.. ayos.. number, 159 na.. malapit na ako.. at ayun!

“Diane Gervacio! Diane Gervacio!”

Dali-dali akong lumapit, excited na ko mag-thumb mark at matatakan ang aking application form nang tanungin ako….

“Sino sa inyo ang government employee?”

“Tita ko po.”

“Ha? Hindi pwede ang tita! Sa immediate family nga nagkakaproblema, sa mga pamangkin pa kaya. Naku.. dapat dun ka pumila sa individual Passport”

Ha? Ganoon. Eh pota bakit ngayon niyo lang sinabi, after 3 hours ng paghihintay!!! Saka yung mga tita ko last time, nakakuha eh kasama yung magiging manugang palang niya (si ate iya) tas ako?! Tas susmaryosep, andami nga ding nakatayo sa gilid nag-aantay ng apelyido, kumbaga mga walang number tas processed agad.. tas ako?!!!!! Waaaa… di niya ba ko nakikilala?! Argh!

Parang nagdilim paningin ko. Walang kain, walang tulog (1am na ko nakatulog) haba pila, wala pang pogi, tas ganon?! Dun daw ako pumila sa labas, ulit!!!!

Para walang gulo, pila ulit sa labas. At Pakshet, halfway na ko. Saka sinabi, may dapat pa raw daanan, yun nga, pathumb mark at pa-verify muna. Argh!!!

Ayoko na!!!! nung pumila kami ulit sa TAMA nang pila, ayos… quota na!

3000 ang quota sa individual passports at 11.15am palang non, naka-3000 katao na.

4. Di ka pa kuntento sa katangahan ko dahil sa pagpila sa maling lane, Siguraduhin mong dala mo lahat ng requiremets.

Passport size picture, blue background, attire: with collar blouse/blazer (check!) mga six pieces para sure…

Glue

Stapler

Black Ballpen

2 Valid IDs with address (photocopied back to back)

PERA! 750Php!!!

Maganda narin kung mag-pack lunch na kasi walang alisan sa pila to, chong!

5. Matutong gumamit ng charm.

Ang byuti ko yata, pang-guardia lang.. huhuhu.. kasi nabola-bola ko guards para maglabas masok… pero nung kinausap ko na yung director dun sa mga passports nga, shet.. wa epek ang pagpapacute.. di daw talaga pwede. Kung gusto ko nalang daw, magpaskedule ako…

Ehh sa ibang tao nga, hindi sila charming eh. Ang ginagamit nilang charm, yung charm ni Roxas or dalawang Sergio Osmena. Shet.

Ang kinahantungan

Haha! May pera naman akong konti, nakanamputs, makapag-pagawa na nga lang sa agency.. ganoon pala dun sa DFA.. patayan, literal.

Blunders

Habang nakapila ako, me naririnig akong nag-uusap, sabi..

“Ayon oh, nako, ang laki ng eyebag ba! Nakakuha na ng passport! Siguro mga ala-1 pa ng madaling araw yon!”

Haha,,, ganon?! Ala-1?! Comedy.. ako nga laki eyebag wala paring passport. Akala ko nagbibiro yun. Yun pala, may mga nakausap ako, mga alas-3 sila ng madaling araw nakapila don?! Grabeh!

Eto naman, sus, lahat ng nakikita ko dun, kundi mukhang mag-jaJAPAN na bebot, puro kulay marinong lalake, walang mukhang matino. At finally, nung may nakapila sa likod ko na cutie.. at kinakausap ako, tanong-tanong kung san ako pupunta blah blah blah.. sabay sabi naman niya! Ahh.. inaayos ko kasi papel ng asawa at anak ko! Toink!

Me-asawa na pala kumag!

Andon yung me mga kasabay akong na-hold dahil may mga kapangalan, tipong wanted for murder.. nyahehe pero sa Mindanao naman daw.

Hayyy…

Hirap kumuha ng passport! At nabalita pa pala sa news na sandamukal talaga ang taong kumuha nung araw na yon!
