Remembering My Father...








"Back when I was a child, before life removed all the innocence
My father would lift me high and dance with my mother and me and then
Spin me around 'til I fell asleep
Then up the stairs he would carry me
And I knew for sure I was loved
If I could get another chance, another walk, another dance with him
I'd play a song that would never, ever end
How I'd love, love, love
To dance with my father again
When I and my mother would disagree
To get my way, I would run from her to him
He'd make me laugh just to comfort me
Then finally make me do just what my mama said
Later that night when I was asleep
He left a dollar under my sheet
Never dreamed that he would be gone from me
If I could steal one final glance, one final step, one final dance with him
I'd play a song that would never, ever end
'Cause I'd love, love, love
To dance with my father again
Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
And I'd hear how my mother cried for him
I pray for her even more than me
I pray for her even more than me
I know I'm praying for much too much
But could you send back the only man she loved
I know you don't do it usually
But dear Lord she's dying
To dance with my father again
Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream"

Have You Seen Me Flirting?


It's been a while since i had written my last blog entry. So how have you all been?

Kita nyu naman, even if i'm kinda swamped with a lot of projects in the office, and even if i am still recovering from a painful experience, I am still here writing this to make you all updated kahit na "installment basis", okay?

To start with, you must have heard right now that i have recently joined back Fitness First. I find it quite challenging kasi to lose weight lalu na't over 30 years old na. Our metabolism slows down kasi and so it often feels that i have to work twice as hard as the next person while i'm working on getting the excess weight off. 

I remember nga yesterday while I was chatting with one of my Facebook friends, I asked him how his day was and he told me na medyu napagud sya kasi he went out with his friend to get and buy some grocery stuff in Geant Supermarket.

In a jokingly manner, I asked him "Sya ba yung latest inspiration mu"? (i read kasi in his FB wall na may latest inspiration sya). 

He then said "No, we're just plain friends", to which i replied "Hmm...At Baket? Is there such a thing as chocolate coated friends or  bavarian friends or New York Cheesecake friends perhaps?", to which he answered in a very plain tone "Merun". 

Then I said, "that is not being friends anymore. flirting na ang tawag dyan", to which he became defensive and said "I don't flirt naman". 

Sabay sabi ko "Neither do I." And asked him "Have you seen me flirting"? 

Sabay sabi nya "Di pa" at mind you, may kalakip pang "hahaha" sa dulo un.

Instead na maningkit ang mga mata ko, dahil feeling ko, iniinsulto nya ako, I kidded him na lang and said "It would be kinda scary kasi for a mataba like me to flirt" Sabi ko pa "Kaya nga ako bumalik ng fitness first para when i become slim, that's the time I can flirt na with anybody". 

Ofcourse, that was just a joke. Flirting is not my forte. Wala akong talent sa pakikipaglandian. Haha.

Anyways, what touched me most about our conversation was when he said "Wala naman sa size ng katawan yan. Di ka papayat nyan kasi iba pala ang purpose mu. Dapat ginagawa ang pagpapapayat para sa sarili at hindi para sa ibang tao".

Right there and then I realized I misjudged this person. I thought he is just one of the many people I know na 'happy go lucky & come what may' lang ang peg. May sense din pala syang kausap. At may lalim.

I just hope na hindi rin nya ako ma 'misjudge' of being something I am not. 

Given a chance, I would want to get to know this person more and hopefully maging mag kaibigan kame. And when he reads this, he knows where and how to contact me naman. (kilig)

I want to write more but I need to make plantsa pa my uniform for this week's work. 

I promise to write again soon. 

Thank you all for always visiting my Facebook, following me on Twitter and for reading my blog.

Mahal ko kayung lahat.
