Baguio Noon
May 9, 2006
Nag-ayos kami ng kabinet noong isang araw it isang album ang biglang nagpabilis ng tibok ng puso ko. Isang album na puno ng aming mga litrato ng pagpunta namin sa Baguio noong bata pa kami.
Naalala ko itong lugar na to. Tinawag ko itong “biggest playground in the whole world”. Kapag pupunta kami ng Baguio noon yung malaking playground lang ang hinahanap ko. Tumatayo pa rin ang balahibo ko kapag naiisip ko kung gaano ko na enjoy maglaro. Buong araw, kahit sobrang init, wala akong tigil. Sabik kung baga. Pakiramdam ko dito lang ako naging malayang maglaro ng maglaro. Kaunti lang ang naglalaro dito, parang aming-amin lang ang lugar (sobrang mahiyain ako noong bata at di mahilig makipaglaro sa ibang bata, kasama na ang hindi ako marunong makipag-agawan ng puwesto - loser ata ang tawag sa mga ganito). Isa pa, may mga laruan sila na di pa makikita sa Manila noon - wala pa kasing McDonald’s playhouse (ang naalala ko lang yung sa Tropical Hut at Shakey’s… nyak). Tama na ang kuwento. (more…)
I love life - its mystery and its complexity. There is much to discover and to understand. I love people with passion. It's always interesting to meet a person overflowing with emotion. I love to play the piano and listen to intersting music. I like working with my hands that proabably explains my affinity with playing, doing crafts, typing (blogging) and even eating when doing nothing but I can't seem to make my whole body coordinated that you can't make me dance or do sports. I also like walking beside the bay, watching people, singing or humming, smiling or greeting strangers, thinking and not thinking of anything at all. || I prefer intimacy. I don't like going into bars or partying where you go on group dates. I like it when I can give 100% attention to whom I'm with because when I'm with a lot of people, I feel I have to accomodate them and I'm not able to share quality time with any of them. Drinking coffee and dining out is always on the top of the list.|| I feel I'm sitll living in my comfort zone. I'm yet to understand what's on the the other side of the wall. I'm yet to understand what others say 'the cruelty of reality' (if there is such). I like to do so may things but remain generally a passive person. I'm still on the path of discovering and adapting to the ideals (irony) of reality .
