1 month, 20 posts

Aba, aba, aba! Isang buwan na pala akong blogger!!! =p Happy monthsary to me! ahihihi

Usually, di ko pinapansin yang mga monthsary-monthsary chuvaness na yan. Kasi ayaw ko ng shortaym. Gusto ko parang Motolite, tested na pangmatagalan, pang longtime kung baga. Parang sa love o sa work. Kaya sa anniversaries ako mas nagtutuon ng pansin!

Pero naman! 1 month na akong blogger! Naman?! hahahaha. (baliw-baliwan?!) Di naman ako masyado masulat, kaya dati iniisip ko kung anong magiging laman ng blog ko, baka wala din ako maisulat, so baka days lang ang itagal, wala din! Ahihihihi. At hindi din ako masyado techie. So malay ko ba kung pano magchuva-chuva ng mga kachienes sa blogelya, davah.

Pero after just a month, adik na ata ako sa katol, este, sa blogging. Kahit nasaan, sa cr, sa office, sa kainan, sa kama, sa sasakyan naiisip ko yung mga topic na pwedeng maisulat. Kahit na sa pagtulog o kahit habang naglaloving-loving nagagawa ko pa ata makaisip ng iboblog. ahihihihi Kung gano ako kaadik sa pagbabasa ng blogs (lahat ng nasa link ko, binibisita ko at least twice a week. Madalas din ako magbloghopping. Anong magagawa ko, natural na chismosa akez!), ganun na din ako kaadik magblog. Although syempre nalilimitahan ako ng aking powers sa pagsulat. So wish ko man magcreate ng plentitious na posts, di naman kinakaya ng jutakers kez. Naku, ayoko namang magpilit baka tumulo na parang uhog ang brain ko noh? ewwness!

I know madami pa akez lalafanging bigas bago ko mareach ang level ng ilan sa mga blogging idols kez. Mahaba-habang lakaran pa iyon, pero sana someday, I'll get there too. Pero ok lang din sa akin kahit di na ako umabot sa puntong yun. Basta ba may isang tao ako na napangiti, solb na akey!

Anyway, (showbiz mode muna) I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you people who visited this blog! :) You inspire me to write more. Maraming salamat sa inyo na bumalik (at sa onting bumabalik-balik), sa inyo na nakiblah,blah, sa inyong lahat! Super mega tenx, tenx!!! ilabsha,olovyou! Mwah, mwah, mwah!

Here's to more posts ahead! Yun na! Bow.

The Alpha of The Story - Theirstory



A long, long time time ago (uhhm, actually it’s just 7 years ago), in a land far, far away (come to think of it, it’s not that far, it’s just around the corner where there’s a naked man with outstretched arms, face looking at the sky), a princhecha named Fiona Wilhelmina Camilla went with her (yes, her talaga?!) friends to watch them practice a dance for the ball (it’s actually a final requirement for a Street Dance class but since this is a fairy tale methinks it’s more appropriate to use "the ball". Hihihi. Anyway, why do I keep on explaining? It just pads the story! Anyhoo, whatever, back to the tale.).

That was when she first laid eyes on him. ‘Hmmm, he’s cute. And a good dancer too! But a bit of a snob.’

Later on she learned that his name is Princhepe Jimboi and that he too is majoring in Arithmancy. ‘Good’, she figured that since only a small number of princhechas and princhepes take Arithmancy, she’s bound to see him around. She even thought of inviting him to join the Circle of Arithmancer, of which she is a member. But thinking that princhechas shouldn’t make the first move, she didn’t.

Luckily, he ended up signing up for CoA anyway - much to the delight of Fiona. ‘At least now we have a chance to get closer. We could even be friends.’

At first, you couldn’t exactly say that they were close, much more friends. He was close to Fiona’s friends but to her he was a little aloof. ‘Heck. Oh well, at least I get to see him. And get to talk to him a few times even if he seems remote.

(Jimboi later told Fiona why he was a little distant. He does not like gregarious folks, and Fiona being vivacious, he was a little uncomfortable with her. ‘It’s just his excuse. I think he likes me, he just doesn’t want to show’.)

A few boring chapters after, they began hitting it off. Soon enough they became close. And this, ladies and gents, is the beginning of theirstory.




(to be continued...)

Sari-Saring Blah, Blah

Biyernes santo. Pauwi ako sa boondock ngunit nataon naman na may prusisyon sa may amin. At swerte! Dalawa pa- isang pangkatoliko, isang pang-aglipay. At dahil dun, sarado ang daan. At syempre pa, walang jeep. Ang ending, naglakad ang princhecha mula balaychina hanggang munisipyo. Inabot din ng 45 minutes ang alay lakad kong yun bago ako nakakita ng jeep papuntang Edsa. Inisip ko na lang penitensya ko yun (dagdag sa abstinence from you-know-what, hihihihi), papayat pa ko ng konti.

Sa boondock, patabaing baboy ang drama ng princhecha (bale wala ang alay lakad!). Dahil puro isda at gulay ang ulam (na tila di masyadong nakakabusog), eh ginawa ko na lang ang madalas na pagkain. hihihihi Walang tigil ang bibig, as in. Tutal wala din namang ibang pwedeng gawin, maliban sa pakikipagchismaxan kay mudrax! hihihi

Anyway, ilang blah,blah fresh from the boondocks (as if may care kayo noh? la lang bakit ba! hahaha):

Pinsan1, buntis, ang boyfriend, may asawa.

Pinsan2, buntis din, ang boyfriend, may asawa din. (what is it with cousins, pregnancy and married men?! Magboboyfriend na lang, sa may mga sabit pa. Gagawa na lang din ng churvah, di pa mag-ingat. Anuvah!)

Pinsan3 and 4 (magkapatid), nagrecord ng kanta. Grabe, nabilib ako! Ang galeng! I'm so proud! hihihi (bat di kya sila sumali sa Pinoy Idol?! Anyway, iniisip ko ilagay dito yung song nila. Medyo Gospel nga lang sya, kaya parang di masyado bagay. hihi)

Tita1 inaway si Lola1 at Lola2. Di ko na inalam ang dahilan. Kebs na, matatanda na sila. hihihihi

Pari1 pinalitan na ni Pari2. Inferness, mas magaling magbigay ng sermon si Pari2. Very engaging. Di nakakainip at di mo mapapansing ang haba na pala ng natalak nya. Kaya cguro mas madaming nagsisimba ngayon.

Caroo nila Princhecha, ginawang drawing board. Suspek: ang binasted ng gf ng broderaka nya. Wtf! Nde nakuntento sa isang maliit na linya lang. Nagdoodle talaga ang lolo nyo sa buong right side nung sasakyan. Goodluck! (Kasalanan ba ni broderaka na gwapo't simpatiko sya at sya ang sinagot ng bilat, heller? At ba't kelangan pagtripan ang caroo?!)


Sa sobrang bihira ko umuwi, pagdating ko, tyak sobrang dami lagi ng bago. Di na nga ako halos kilala ng mga tao eh. At di ko na din sila kilala.

Honey Di Ba May Pasok Ka Pa?

Mabilis mong isubo,
Dilaan mo pa.
Konting higop lang, tapos.


Untitled

chains.
my heart is chained, enslaved by emptiness
abyss.
my soul is trapped in a vast bottomless crevasse
darkness.
my eyes somber, murky and can't see no sun
no picturesque world, no vivid imagery, no variegated visage
no moons nor stars, no nothing
just bleak dreary dusk
gagged.
my mouth is shunned, hushed, silenced
i'm choked, nauseated, i'm full, about to surge but can't
wings.
would i be able to break away, and fly, and be free
(i'm gay) i should be
gasp.
air. struggling for breath. must muster enough strength
to shatter these bonds that hold me back
must kindle enough courage
to stand up and say i'm me, i'm free
i can rest now and be happy...

Blogroll Debut

Oh. My. Gosh! Call me shallow but I really, really am soooooo happy right now!!!! (Lukring ka na ba Fiona? Yung previous entry mo eh super galit ka, ngayon naman masaya daw!? Anuveh?)


Hello, sino ba naman ang hindi matutuwa kung makakita ka ng ganito:

Virgin pa kasi ako sa mga blogroll-blogroll na itey. Perstaym!! (Ohh my god!!! I'm sorry guyz, this is my first pageant ever because I'm only 21 days old. Hahaha). Kaya super excited at happy aketch nung makita ko to! Woohooo!

At nde lang sa kung saan ko 'to nakita. Sa blog pa ng idol/crushness ko! Nakalimutan ko na ang galet ko, nakalimutan ko na din na nde na long ang hair ko! Basta feeling ko ang haaaaaaba pa den ng hair ko. (Isa ang blog ko sa Mga Minamahal na Gay Blog Ni Agent? Wohohooo!) Gawing big deal?! OA na kung OA, walang pakialamanan! Happy ako, ba't ba?! Wihihihi.

Thanks Agent for making my day! Walang halong showbiz, salamat talaga! hihihihi Touched ako! (touch me, touch me! Ang landi ng potah!) Seryoso, thanks talaga, I appreciate it! Mwah!


Addendum:
At syempre super salamat din po sa lahat ng naglink sa akin! :) I am so grateful! Labs ko kayong lahat! Mwah!



_________________________
Sidestory:
Kagabi lang, nadiscover ng ilang teammates ko itong blog na ito via Agent's blog. How? Eh kasi, lagi ko na nababanggit si Agent Boytoy. Tas kanina sa dinner, may cute. Sabi ko sa kanila: "Feeling ko yun si Agent Boytoy!" (take note: nde ko pa nakikita si Agent not even sa picture, feeling ko lang naman yun ah, ba't ba?). Umandar na naman ang kaweirduhan ko.

Anyway, may nagtanong kung nagcocomment daw ba ko dun sa blog na yun? Sabi ko Oo (too late to realize na dapat pala sinabi ko na hinde, me and my big mouth!) Tapos may isang tao dyan na nagtyagang hanapin kung sino ba ako among those who have posted comments. Eh di ayun, naexpose ang identity ni bakla! Kebs na.

Moral lessons: Walang sikreto ang nde nabubunyag- unless you learn how to keep your mouth shut and you know how to cover your tracks. Kyembot! (Anyway, happy pa den ako, wiiiiiiii!)

Spreading Love One Post at a Time

(This entry was supposed to be posted Sunday morning and is for someone I realy, really, really detest!)

Oh yes, I still very much hate you! Bigtime!

Don't you get it? Haven't you noticed he is avoiding you? I bet you already have noticed that he does not reply to your text messages anymore (sabi mo nga na suplado na sya!)? Why don't you just stop? He just doesn't know how to tell you directly.

Well then let me.

Back off bitch! Let me spell that again for you - B-A-C-K O-F-F! Just dissolve in the background will you? Go to the desert for all I care. Find someone else to drink coffee with, look for someone else to do work out routines with (ever heard of personal trainers?). Drink coffee by yourself. Do your workout alone. (I thought you said you are a loner? Why then not be a loner that you claim to be?) Why don't you just ask your own boyfriend to accompany you? Oh, I forgot he has little time for you right? That's why you decided that you want to share mine?

Why don't you just stop trying? Stop bugging us already.

I've said my piece, you two-faced A-hole. Don't let me say it again.

New look

Two days after a post about changes and being afraid of taking a step, I am now not at all clueless as to why I wrote the entry - maybe my subconcious was readying me of a change.

You see yesterday I accompanied Princhepe Jimboi in a salon. He'd be having his regular trim and I decided to tag along. Tag along I did and more - I decided to have an impromptu hair cut as well. And oh - I didn't just have a trim. I decided to cut my long (six-or-so-inches-below-the-shoulder-length) hair short. I don't know what went into me when I decided that.

When the stylist first asked me what she'd do, I told her to just shave 3 inches off. But after I was shampooed, I saw a girl and I liked her cut I asked if I can have my hair styled that way too (inggitera si bakla!).

Ending- I walked out of the salon sporting a too-short-for-comfort-emoish mane telling myself it's-just-hair-it-would-grow-back-soon-at-least-it-looks-thicker-now repeating the same over and over again until I have convinced myself to stop fussing over my new cut.



p.s. I've asked Princhepe Jimboi what he thought of my new look, he said it looks great on me "Maganda nga ba't ayaw mo maniwala? Bagay sayo, lalo ka nga naging cute eh!" (kilig aku. hihi- but of course he'd say that, hubby ko yun eh! warla na pag sinabinya panget aku! hihi). I've asked Chulip (my housemate) and said it looks good (Ang GANDA!!! Babaeng-babae ka lola!). I've asked Lorenzo (my friend's boyfriend) and he said "Ok naman ah"! Also, no one in the office said "Buhay pa ba?" so I guess I look ok. Oh sige na nga, I know maganda ako kahit na ano pa gupit ko! hihihi

Clueless

We are oblivious to the events that would transpire tomorrow. We often have dreams and visions, but these could all just pop and vanish in thin air much like bubbles. We oftentimes make wishes but then again, when they do come true we suddenly have a change of heart and we feel the emptiness all over again.

Sometimes, we are afraid to leave, afraid of taking one more step. More often than not, it is because we are afraid of the uncertainty that lies ahead. We wouldn't want to abandon our comfortable abode to move towards unfamiliar turfs. We hate the feeling of departing and the feeling of leaving someone behind. The only thing that we could hold on to is the fact that we would have someone to come home to. That there is someone waiting for us to return. And that we have gathered enough memories that would last us through...


...until we're home again. Certain.




I am so clueless as to why am I writing this.

Makuha ka sa tingin!

Dahil pelikula at sine na din naman ang naging topic ko sa dalawang posts nagyong linggo, why not itodo na naten noh?

Ito ay para sa kanilang mga pasaway na manonood ng sine. Kung nakamamatay lang ang matalim na tingin, andami ko ng naligwak!

Sinetch nga ba sila?

a. Mga nde nagsisilent ng phone. At nakalevel 5 pa ang call/message alert tone. Anuveh, ilang beses ba kayo dapat paalalahanan na pakisilent ang mga phone nyo. May mga nakapaskil pa sa entrance ng parehong pakiusap. Di naman ganun kahirap magsilent ng nyelpon noh! Kung nagwoworry ka makamiss ng text mssg (as if ganun kaimportante yun na di makapag-iintay), may vibrating alert naman noh! Palibhasa ibang vibrator ang alam mo. hihi.

b. Mga nagta-take ng calls. Isa ka pa. Nakasilent nga ang phone mo, pero hello naman, sagutin daw ba ang tawag? Pwede naman lumabas ka saglit. O kaya kahit sa cr mo yan sagutin. O basta bumulong ka na lang. Keri na yun. Basta wag naman: "HELLO! HELLO? WAIT LANG NASA SINE AKO. DI KITA MARINIG! ANO YUN? HELLO? HELLO. TEKA ANO KAMO." Naman. Nakatingin na sayo lahat ng tao.

c. Mga nagkukuwentuhan ng kung anik-anik. In full volume, sound effect and all. Wala akong pakialam kung may boylet na si Mercy o kung san man sa abroad si Lucio. Heller, pwede naman kayo sa bahay magchismisan noh? Or sa coffeeshop. Pwede rin sa library, basta wag dito. Hindi ako nagbayad ng tiket para sa inyong istorya, kya please lang, syatap!

d. Mga naninipa ng upuan ng may upuan. Ano bang problema? Bat kelangan manipa? Di ako makaconcentrate sa panonood ko noh. Eh kung ikaw kaya sipain ko, like mo?

e. Mga lovebirds na daig pa ang mga manok panabong kung magtukaan. Nakakadistract kayo! Mamaya na yan, pagtapos ng pelikula. Di ko kayang pagsabayin ang panonood ng dalawang eksena. hihihi.

f. Mga narrators. Ayan na, naku, bilis takbo, hahabulin ka na! Naku nasa likod mo! Nakita mo yun, sinampal nya si Carmen, naku Carmen sampalin mo din! Parepareho tayong nanonood ateng. Di mo na kelangan ulitin yung scenes, nakikita ko. Gusto mo mag-apply as radio talent? Kikita ka pa.

g. Mga spoilers. "Sabi nung frend ko mamamatay din daw yan eh. Ayan na. Dyan daw sya mamamatay." Fiona: tatayo, tatabihan yung spoiler, sasaksakin nya sa puso, sabay sasabihin, "Uhm! Ayan, ikaw ang mamatay, Leche". (violent si bakla pasensya na. hihihi)


Simple lang naman ang dapat gawin eh. Respeto lang sa mga kasabay nyong nanonood. Sit back, Relax and Enjoy the movie! =p

Dedmatology 101 - Jeepney Edition

Dahil poorita mirasol na aketch, at wala na akey pang-shoxibelle kagabi eh nagbus ako and then nagjeep.

Pagpasok ko sa jeep, may nahagip ang aking peripheral vision. Uy, Cute. So may-I-sit ako sa tapat ni Cutie. Syet! Pak! Cutie turns out to be a classmate (and friend) from highschool sa boondocks (na dito na din ata nagwowork at nakatira). Cguro mga 6-7 years ko na sya nde nakikita.

His face registered the I-think-I-know-you-but-I'm-not-so-sure-let-me-wait-till-you-say-hi-so-I'd-be-sure expression. Buti na lang uno ang grade kez sa Dedmatology 101. Feigning lethargy, wit ko xa pinansin. For the whole 15 minutes of the trip, nagkukunyari talaga ako na di ko xa kilala. Natural, di din nya ko pinansin.

Pop quiz, hotshots. Essay writing.

1. Bat di xa sure na aketch nga yung friendship nya from hs?
Kasi siguro I look totally different from what I used to look during high school. Gwapo ako dati, slight. Ngayon maganda na (at long hair pa, fabulous!). hihihi. (Minsang umuwi nga aketch sa province, may lolo akey na akala nya, kapatid aketch ng mudrax kez. Na dalaga. Winner da vah?)

2. Bat di ko xa pinansin?
Ewan ko. Cguro nahihiya aketch (nope, nde ko kinakahiya ang sarili ko, nahihiya lang ako.). At ayaw ko naman ma-put on the spot kami pareho. Sa jeep. (Hey klasmeyt, oo, ako nga to, si *****, pero Fiona na ko ngayon eh. Anyway, ang cute mo na ha? Kahit mukha ka ng daddy. Slightly. hihi. Nagbayad ka na? Libre mo naman akey!)Awkwardness naman di ba!?

Dahil nga bihira lang aketch umuwi sa bundok at sobrang tagal ko ng walang balita sa mga dati kong kaibigan, di pa din akey "out" sa kanila. Sa mga kakilala ko naman nung college, madami nang nakakita ulit sa akin (karami sa kanila nagugulat at tinatanong kung akez ba talaga si *****. haha.) Pero di ko naman sila dinededma. In fact, nag-iikmayl pa nga akey ng sweet eh. At binibigyan kez pa sila ng authograph noh. Pero ba't sa mga klasmeyts/friendships ko nung hs parang ang hirap?

Ah ewan. Dedma na lang muna. Tsaka ko na lang to babalikan pag nakahanap na aketch ng sagot.

Filmus Adictus

There are people addicted to drugs, there are those addicted to sex. Some are alchoholics, some shopaholic, and others workaholic. As for me, I am Princhecha Fiona and I am a cineholic.

Yes, I admit, I am addicted to watching films in a cinema. Watching movies at home does not appeal much to me (unless I have my own home theater system, I wouldn't mind, but until then...). For me, watching a movie is not complete without the whole "cinematic" experience: queueing for my ticket, buying one large soda (Coke preferably), making a beeline to the restroom so that I don't need to go at the middle of the movie (and miss anything important), and then watching the trailers while waiting for the movie to begin (and getting excited on the next movie that I should watch). Then of course there's the comfy seats, the bigger-than-life screen and the surround-sound system.

Kung may maituturing akong isang kaartehan sa katawan, ito na yun. Ang panonood ng pelikula sa magandang sine (dapat talaga magandang sine?! hihihihi). Isa syang luho, isa syang adiksyon. Kaya kong manood ng sine mag-isa. Kaya kong manood ng dalawang beses magkasunod, tas manonood ulit ng isa pa kinabukasan. Kapag nde ako nakanood, parang nde kumpleto ang linggo ko.

There's something in cinemas that I really find relaxing, comforting even. Natutuwa ako kasi malamig (mas masarap manood! lalo na pag kasama ko si Princhepe hihi), tas madilim (mas konting distraction, so mas madaling tumutok sa malaking telon). Behaved ako sa sine ha?, I swear!!! Syempre kelangan magconsentrate kasi nde pwedeng may I rewind pag may nde ka nagets! (And si Princhepe medjo short ang attention span sa mga dialogue-dialogue, kaya dapat ever ready ako magexplain/magrecap ng mga linya. hihi)

Nde ako masyado nagpapadala sa mga reviews/comments ng iba tungkol sa isang pelikula. Mas mahalaga sa akin yung experience na nakukuha ko buhat sa panonood ko ng pelikula. Para sa akin, ako lang ang makapagsasabi kung nagustuhan ko ba o nde yung pinanood ko (kung nde ko papanoorin, pano ko malalaman di ba? hihihi).

Nde rin naman ako maalam sa teknikal at artistik na aspekto ng pelikula. Kaya syempre, bilang isang manonood, ang mas nagiging batayan ko kung nagustuhan ko ang isang pelikula o nde ay kung nakarelate ba ako o kung napag-isip ba ako. Ganun lang.

Masaya na ako kapag paglabas ko ng sine napaisip ako o kaya natuwa/natawa/naiyak/natakot/kinilig. Kahit nde ko nagustuhan yung napanood ko, kahit nainis ako sa palabas/sa pagarte ng bida/kababawan ng kwento, ok pa din. Nde naman lahat ng pelikula magugustuhan ko talaga.

Pero ayun nga, required na dapat sa magandang sine ako manood. hihihihi. (Pag sa dvd lang, nde ko talaga maappreciate ang panonood.) Tsaka pala dapat syempre maumpisahan ko yung pelikula from the start. (Coming in at the middle of the film does not work for me.)

Kung nde to ka-adikan sa sine, di ko na alam kung ano tawag dito. hehe

Differential Calculus

(Note: This post has NOTHING to do with mathematics. So people suffering from innumeracy, you have nothing to worry about. It's just a silly title that's all.)

When I was a kid, I didn't really think I was gay. Maybe I was gay, but I did not think I was. Heck- back then I did not even know what gay was. But one thing is for sure, I certainly knew I was different.

Unlike my boy playmates, I was never keen with "manly" games such as diablo, sumpit-sumpitan, basketball, etc. And unlike my girl playmates, I did not enjoy playing house (I'd rather play school so I could be teacher) nor rag dolls. But I enjoyed very much the usual games kids my age played during those times: patintero, tumbang preso, moro-moro, saker, taguan, teks to name a few. I was also quite good with piko and jackstone. And of course, I shared their love of watching Bioman, Shaider, Maskman and all.

Unlike most of my cousins, I loved going to school. I asked a lot. I read a lot. I was very curious and I loved learning new things. Making homeworks and projects did not bother me. I was even looking forward to doing them, in fact. I was such a nerd, gee.

Unlike my brothers (we are four in the family, all boys I have three), I never bothered with things called crushes and girl(?)friends. To be honest I never have had a crush since later in highschool. I was busy doing things, busy with school, busy with other "important" stuff. I was busy trying to live up to being the achiever(?) that I was perceived to be.

Unlike most teener boys, I adored watching my mom putting make up, I'd go to their room with a book on the pretense that I was studying, but all I really was studying is her every stroke applying eyeshadow or lipstick. haha. But like teener boys, I too have had shares of daily, you know, raging hormone episodes. Hey, I wasn't that alien!

Unlike most of the youngsters in the clan (typical province, relatives living within an arm's length from each other), I knew most of the family's secrets. I was my mom's confidante. (maybe that's why I grew up being nosy and loving chismis. haha.) Yes, I knew who was the ampon, knew why our kid neighbor looks very much like an uncle, basically knew too much for my age. Maybe my mom probably thought I was wise beyond my years, or that I did not care, would not remember anyway. But look ma, I remembered and I do not care if I was not ready for such revelations- afterall, it's always great knowing something not everyone knew! :)

Looking back, ok, fine, I probably was gay already (would a straight kiddo actually watch his mom put on some rouge in her pucker, probably not!)! So what's my point in this post? I was different (and felt different) because I was me - not because I was gay. And yes, I enjoyed my childhood even if I felt different.

Pardon Mon Francais

Di ako mapirmi kung anong lenguahe ang gagamitin ko dito. Maybe sometimes I'd post in English. Cguro most of the time, magta-taglish ako. Bihasa din ako sa isa pang dialect, pero nde ko na cguro yun gagamitin, nde naman lahat makakaintindi nun. Hmmm... cguro winner din if minsan iisplukachina aketch ng sward anech? Pero di naman aketch masyado sanay. Pero keri pa din.

Para at least reflective yung blog ko sa kung ano man aketch offline. Minsan inglisero ako- lalo na kapag nakikipag-argue kay Princhepe (more of him in future posts). Pero mas madalas Tagalog/Taglish. Minsan German (that's how my Tagalog cousins refer to us speaking in the vernacular). Sometimes gibberish. Minsan seryoso, madalas fun fun lang, pero mas madalas maganda lang. Labo. haha.

Anyway, floodway, happy aketch. Kasi kahit dalawa lang kayo (ok fine, mangarap ka Fiona) nagiisa ka lang na reader ng blog ko eh nageeffort ka pa din basahin ito so far. Sana di ka magsawa, suki hihi. Hope you'll be back for more. (kahit walang kwenta yung mga posts ko, at nde naman ako kadalasan magpost. hihihihi)

Basta bisita lang lagi sa Princhecha para sa kanyang mga blah, blah ha? :) Promise? (Ang hindi bumalik magkakapigsa ng madami sa mukha! ewww...hihihi)
