Toothpaste Smile

Attended the COLPAL Dep Christmas Party... I won a laptop bag, a colpal necktie, 2 bags of fruits, bag of groceries.

I ate a lot, sang some of the songs in the band.

Received a gift from Jaezel and Jape, from Mama Cita, from Boss Luis and Colpal People.

I love you COLPAL... You will always be the best..

And Christmas is still more of receiving talaga.. hahaha.. :)

Black Holes

I am back with my pen and sketch pad. I'll have to rest my Paint Appli for a while. Need to draw more with real drawing materials.

Script Mo!

This is no big deal I just want to write some of the unforgettable lines that I heard in movies.

Me? Jump? To my death? Ngee Hindi ko pinangarap na magscattered ang brain ko sa buong antipolo - Donna Cruz (Campus Girls) Uso pa ang jumper at nakamahabang dress ang mga girls habang suot ang itim nilang boots. Hahaha ito ang movie na lahat ng girls nagtatakbuhan sa campus habang umuulan. Buti hindi sila nilagnat or nagkasipon hehehe.
Sinaktan ni Mela si Cory, At ininsulto ni Cory si Mela. Hindi masasaktan ni Mela si Cory kung hindi ininsulto ni Cory si Mela - Rico Yan (Dahil Mahal na Mahal Kita) Tongue twister lang Rico yan. Grade six when I saw this movie. Sabihin na lang natin na dito ko unang nakita yung potential ni Rico yan as an actor.Cinema one thank you for free viewing.
Oh land, land is ship that is too big for me. I don’t belong in there, this ship is my mother since from the beginning and when she dies I will die with her – 1900 (Legend of 1900) my top one movie of all time. Story ng isang lalaking pinanganak sa isang barko at ng bestfriend nya na umakayat sa barko. 1900 ang setup ng movie.I only saw the movie in HBO second year college summer vacation. It’s a so so movie sa umpisa pero after 20 minutes hindi nya ako pinatawa. I broke down in tears literally good thing that I’m watching this movie alone. This is the only movie na nagsurpass sa expectation ko. Pinaiyak nya ako ng todo.
Hi I just brought you a pair of heels, amm what’s your size again, sorry it’s 9 – Josh Hartnett (Wicker Park) i will give the credit to the mean girl. I love the romance between Josh and his Girlfriend here. Pero mas approve sakin yung acting nung kontrabidang babae kasi ginawa nya lahat para paghiwalayin sila in the end sila pa din. Huge and Superb acting yung girl na yun. Excuse me producers please bigyan nyo ng lead role yung girl na yun

Let it out in the open

 Being a jolliest guy is tiring. And FYI it’s not really rewarding. People tend to make fun of you just because you like joking around and smile stuffs. No wonder Grinch falls short to his friends.

This is really a bad day for me. Not because I am tired which is not and obviously I slept from 6am to 2am.
These are all my family. But you have to admit sometimes we need more space to breathe and relax and I’m losing my air right now.
I’m disappointed to the nun with the devil’s tail that wasted my hope for the third time. What’s your problem can you just be rational for once? I am giving my all to understand your situation and you’re pushing my boundaries to its limit. You’re older than me ate can you compose yourself, help yourself. This is not about the people around you. This is really about YOU!
And this is for you my dear friend. You’re bothering me for a week now. Asking questions about job interviews, proper attires & right gestures but hey we have the same issue about adjustment. You’re adjusting to a new world and I’m adjusting my circuit to you. Don’t ask for my opinions if you don’t intend to believe to my suggestions or at least have the decency to say thank you. That’s it. I appreciate that you’re here and you’re with us so please try to be considerate.

Venting!!!!!

weird dream

T_T

Christmas Season the longest month of celebration. This is more of the giving and not much of the receiving. Again and again... hahaha parang I can’t accept the fact of giving and receiving.
Grade one was the loneliest class Christmas I attended. I’m not friendly and I’m scared of people except my nanay and tatay. So I don’t know how to write the word friends in my notebook. So this is the most exciting part. Nay prepared 16 gifts and after the party I got none. Because grade school has this golden rule wherein you have to inform the person that you will give him a gift so that she can wraps something in return. Nay asked me, O bakit wala kang dalang regalo? And then I cried.
Grade two first to time received Sourballs and Pretzels and as first timer I’m really excited to open it though I knew what’s inside of the shiny Christmas wraps. Because I learned my lesson.
Note: From grade two to six my dear classmates never fail to give sourballs and pretzels.

water flowers

Got this Old Watercolor from 2002 and nagwowork pa sya.
Again another flowers.. I'm better for flowers and Mother should
award me for being a flower lover in arts.. But i'm not nto real flowers..

Top Plates


I will list the things that I really love to eat. Eh di rin ako sure if food sila in the first place.
Fishballs and Squidballs. Yummy street foods, I stopped eating them the day my cousin got the amoeba from fishballs she ate at the street. I have nothing against street food... love them also, if you’re fond of eating them just make sure you don’t bring some extra friendly microscopic bacteria in your home or inside your tummy. Okay!
Crepes. Raise your hand if you’re a big fan. Because I am! Present!! First time I tried it the day I begun to love it. One Hawaiian crepes please! The exemptions I don’t like fruit mix stuffed crepes. Especially the mangoes, It’s healthy but not my choice.
Contis Mango Bravo. Hail to Tin for introducing me to CMB and I fall in love with same cake over and over again. Literally the icing melts in your mouth and you will love the frozen sliced mangoes. At least once a month I get to see Contis and meet CMB for a while.
Sizzling Pepper’s Kani Salad. So the meat plate foods are fine. But one thing that keeps me from coming back is the Kani Salad. Uu na Pipino lang yun. It gives me a pleasant feeling while eating the crunchy Kani with dressing. So far this is the only kani salad in my list. I can accept any suggestion from someone and try the other kani salad to other restau.
Tomato’s Tomato Chunk Pasta. Big fan of tomato and Tomato restaurant hahaha. Tomato is good for guys. FYI especially for guys, why? I don’t have to give the answer google it. So again I love fresh tomato in pasta. That’s all.
Buddy’s Pansit Habhab. By the way pancit habhab is also called Pansit Lucban. Syempre it’s their signature finest pansit from Lucban,Quezon. It’s hard to describe the taste you have to see it for yourself. And don’t forget to ask for suka. Pansit Lucban alone is boring and lifeless. Not being  bias but it’s one of the best pancit in the entire Country.

SSSS

I found out that I don’t go with the flow down to falls paradise like typical guys. Because I don’t watch NFL, I’m not interested in every Pacman’s fight, I don’t collect black shirts, I am stick with passion, I stand with my music genre, I don’t stay damn quiet and serious just to be mysterious.

2am






I had a blast at this point. I went to Spicy Finger Greenbelt 3 with my band m8s. And we saw this band with the spicy performance. A lot of songs in our list are really included in their line up. And they have three great vocalists. One guy and two chicks are really enough.


And I have to give the credit also to their keyboardist. He can rapped every bit of songs. Specially the “Shot shot shot shot shot shot shot shot shot shot shot everybody ”.


So that’s it just sharing, call me music fool but I’m really into it. I’ll sleep now for tomorrow’s adventure with my siblings. Thanks God for this day.


By the way, Rach bought a new pair of heels.


Ninang is appreciating the photography.


Pach finally learned to ride a bike.


Erol got his salary increase.


Marvin (college friend) will get married in early 2010 and I’m one of the wedding singers.

Love is like studying in school. You need to get your grades before you enroll into another subject. Same with... that you need to learn your lessons before you end and start a new relationship. -ARDEL


HAUNTED PASSAGE

If the past is still haunting you when you wake up in the morning. Or visits you while reading a book, watching a love story movies, or dinner to your favourite place. Hmmm wake up!!!
You’re creating your own ghost, well at least it’s a proof that you’re imaginative... but for your own sake limit the usage.
In my case....
Talk to X ask Y to find  Z.
 I find time to talk to my ex, asking her the possible questions that I don’t know the answers. You’ll get bitter like ampalaya plus if you’re unaware of reasons why you end with separate ways. I don’t leave and I don’t end the relationship without the closure. There is no law in asking for a final talk so that every failed relationship can settled everything before they cut the love letters, donate the teddy bears and throw the love rings.. on the other hand keep the rings that will be useful in the future.
 180 degree
Cut the lines and start a new you. Did anyone tell you that when you stay in a relationship you adapt to the person? Some of your hobbies came from your ex. Or maybe some clothes are gifts from that past. Then it’s time for you to change... not so drastic but the stronger version of you. Try something different than the usual. We only get scared for the first time simply because we set our minds that the past is the comfort zone. But then again if that is our comfort zone why are we alone?! And why we did he/she hurt us.
Moving Out
Love is like finding new home, so when you plan to transfer to a new home you have to buy a new set of furniture and dispose the old ones... same with relationship...
Open yourself to others. Dating should be number one on your list. You’re young and single so it’s your privilege. An effective way of treating a broken heart is to find new love. This is not compulsory you can also take your time and then move to dating if you’re ready.

CUT to breakthrough

One in my hundreds of weird dreams... or nightmares..
It's a head of a girl with a rabbit's ears. I don't remember the story its
really bizarre and long. But i remembered that she was talking to me and
then suddenly someone from the back cut her head and it fell on top of
a glass table. and still nakatingin pa rn sya sakin despite of that.

old page

I’m missing the old days...
Where I can sit and watch the pigs eat their food. I used to run and hide under the shades of daranghita while my nanay is calling me out for lunch. I’m doing that every single day of my vacation. I’m missing the old days where I am obsessed with stationary. I am happy to receive one peso from tatay just to buy a rinbee cheese curls.

Mini-Monsters

Do you still remember the comic-stripped cartoon show in RPN 9. The mini-monsters. I made my own version hehehehe. Out of all my drawings this one is my favorite. so far... it reminds me of a coloring book in grade school. which my tatay can't afford to buy one for me because it's expensive that time. rice is much important than coloring book. FYI I used 6pcs crayons from grade one to three. Lucky Me! gusto ko lang sabihin na ginamit ko yung crayons na yun for three years and i never complain. kasi alam ko kung para saan ang crayons at para saan ang bigas. Kahit gustong gusto ko sya. :)

Too Late To Be Early

Despite of thousand of words in dictionary, you don’t stand a chance of letting it out. This is not about playing safe but being cautious of what will be the result. You hide and no one can seek you.
You are afraid yet no one is scarring you. We all share the same sentiments that awkward feeling of being near but yet so far. Just imagine a thin layer of wall is there to stop you. Time goes by and just slipped away. The person will walk into a different path. You will run forward and the person will run sideward.
No goodbyes and no farewells. The person will take the first step away from you. Your time runs out. It’s too late to be early.

Spoon and Fork

I was waiting for the go signal last night to crack a joke about him and her. And ended up being a loser because I’m drunk and to think I’m in the middle. Rachelle this is your fault. Haist! Too many words left unspoken and too many emotions are hidden, let it out girl! soon. Happy Birthday Patch!

MOUSE CAT

PAWS on the floor

 
 

 
 

Wandering around the planet earth and wahlahhh!!! My feet took me to PAWS (Philippine Animal Welfare Society) where they’re taking care of abandoned cats and dogs.
Note that all the people inside this group are all volunteers and they don’t receive salary or incentives of taking care of the homeless pets. Tour inside the society, we spotted the official veterinarian of the cats and kittens.
Sadly some of the cats are sick so they have to be separated from the others. Hatching!!!! I smell cats!  Ngeyowwww!!!!!
They don’t have snakes, lizards and dragons but the cats and dogs here are ready for adoption.
Have a heart for these feline and K9. They does well at home if you treated them nicely. We heard they rescued a 3 legged bloody cat from the street.
I’ll be back PAWS.

Don't fall SHORT

Just copied something from Garage Magazine.
My weakness is to make a pictures or drawing of a man, their clothes, lifestyle and games.
There is no variety when it comes to men. Even the clothes we are wearing are all the same.
Just don’t pay attention with the colours but nevertheless we wear the same thing
again and again.. okay over and over .. and out and over... whatever...
I’ll try to be more balance from now on... I am back from my sketching.

A day with Momma

September 25, 2010 Jala Jala Rizal c/o Ninang

Welcome to Vista Concorsia Resort arriving at 5pm in the afternoon. We had the plan to buy fresh fish and meat in Tanay’s market but unsure of the way we ended up with no choice but to buy in small talipapa near the resort. I’m glad ninang can improvise It’s her forte actually.
As we arrived at the resort ninang introduced as to John Lloyd, Hello John Lloyd where is Bea? J JL is Ate’s son one of the caretakers of the resort. We met Tito Vic and the rest of the Adam’s Family we actually pretend that the place was haunted like in the horror movies, and we are going to be the dinner like Portia in Shake,Rattle & Roll V played by Manilyn Reynes.
Our first activity was the picture taking since everyone is a certified cam whore. We saw a lot of flowers, we bullied a goat, talked to dogs and visited the small church of Tita Cora. I love the Nipa Cogon Hut. It’s bringing back the memories.
Early dinner my favourite part we had fried toasted tilapia, salted egg, toyo mansi chilli sauce and pop cola. “bundat si Jic jic” Since our plans are ruined by potatoes ( a bunch of guys), oh nothing personal they took over the swimming pool and sang their 101 list of songs in the video karaoke till two in the morning.
So we decided to play 123 pass the loser will be punished by being a blank canvass the winner will paint his/her face using ninang’s lipstick. And everyone got messy hahaha. Wasted and tired of waiting the potatoes we fell asleep.
Afternoon karaoke and Pancit with kalabaw for lunch and spent few minutes sa pool we’re so done. Going to back to manila we are helplessly lured to MMDA’s trap so they took Erol’s license and advised as to get it to their office (bad MMDA). Before we went home, we stopped and ate dinner at Chowking. Busog Again!

Closed-Box Jack

If you belong to the group of people consisting of 10 to 30 people barkadahan I bet you can submit a lot of entries in MKK and Love Stories Unlimited. Prepare your hankys for girls and cases of beer for guys and start to ask her/him why it’s still hurting though they separated a couple of months. So much drama right? But you see one of them will just be quiet, speechless about his/her personal life. Even if you tried to ask, the person will just smile and say “okay lang, kaya pa naman” then you will realize na you have to put your hands down and stop rubbing his/her back. Since he or she can manage the problems. And perfect!!

Metamorphosis

Adapt,Mimic and Combine to survive

HOPE HARD, PRAY HARDER

Count the times you cross your fingers? Or waited a shooting star...  don’t want to fall down to grant your wish...

“I wish you good health and more birthdays to come.” Is this good enough at all? But at least someone is really wishing that for us.


My friend’s nanay is really a lola. Last time we talked about her and how she wants to be in her few days here on earth.


I personally see her every time I come home to Lopez. She is a part of my friend so I consider her as one extension. I am writing this because I am unsure of what will be next.


It melts my heart to see my friend’s eyes while giving us the updates about her. It’s not easy. He can’t do anything but to watch her every day.


I don’t want to see her in that way. I only want the image of her back to those days when she prepares dinner for us. How she moves her eyebrows when she is irritated.


It’s still ingrained in my brain. And I will keep it forever. We’ll pray for you Nanay T. Stay there and give him more time pa.

OKA TOKAT

Late for Halloween:
In Gumaca, Quezon Brgy, Rosario June 1990, a group of kids were playing hide and seek in Maharlika Highway eight in the evening. Nanay would always tell me to never ever cross the road without anyone assisting me since I’m only six that time. Our house is near the railroad and only a few steps near the Highway. My playmate named kuninay crossed the highway to show us how brave she was and then she was hit by a car and died within just a few minutes. That was the first time I witnessed an accident, Thank God I’ve never seen another one and hopefully never again in my life.
We attended the wake and the first thing I’ve noticed.... the coffin. Then I saw her face “ mukha syang manikang namamaga sa loob ng kabaong."  :)

It looks like a chico tree that bears papaya but it’s not.
absolutely  a Chesa Tree from Ed’s backyard.
Hahaha.. one of the weird fruits in Quezon.
Don’t ask me about the taste... I ate a small one couple of years ago.
Taste like a sweet boiled pumpkin. Flesh is colour yellow so brush your teeth after you devour that. Hahaha.
Just fascinated to see the big Chesa fruits!!!! Laki laki..
And thanks to the hanger..

Guy now Gay later

Ever heard a guy singing Mariah songs or dancing to the tune of Britney Spear’s toxic. Not a chance to sense anything, but smiling with lots of overflowing pink ideas in your mind.
Fix your Gay-dar you need to sense deeper that you can imagine. Read the ff.
A sweet tall guy with a soft voice, love to wears fitted shirts. He can dance and sing, though he is fond of teasing girls he is still the average sensitive guy who can make girls LOL. He snores like a tiger while sleeping. Sorry he’s not gay he is straight.
The next candidate is internally geek. Yes he is the cum laude slash lola’s boy. His feelings  depends on the place, mood, colours and occasions. This is the diva male version of all diva since he is not taking a bow if you are wrong. He is meticulous in details but he is straight. Free spirited to act like gay but definitely he is not.
Mid thirty’s guy who was the perfect candidate for being the best dad and a husband. He is meticulous also judging by the way he moves and the way he talks. Sport minded and a gym buff who works his ass by weekdays while spending the weekends drinking and rest by Sunday for his family. Perfect! But he is gay because of his indecent proposal to his sub ordinate to be his lover. He shocked me!
The campus crush, heartthrob and girl’s apple of the eye. Certified Eye candy! I can make money with his face all I to do is to send him in Go-see for commercials. He is extremely cute and lovable. Somewhat naughty  I guess! He also shocked me with his confession that he is gay and I have to admit I didn’t see it coming. Because I’m looking forward to learn from him. That’s all.
Gays are acting like guys while guys act like gays. Confusing, but the real deal is to be who you are and not what they want you to be. Kanya kanya lang so back off na lang for those judgemental people. You don’t stand a chance of changing every weird one you see in the streets by your opinions. You can only watch but you don’t need to speak at all. J


Cheers Pach thank you for reading my entries every day. :)

MOM. where are the keys?

Hey Mom why didn't you warn me, because about them is something I should have known.

Marry Maid

In real life there is no such thing “duh”. And I bet if they exist they will never attend the open season. They don’t fit in cans and dinner plates. And they are too big to be your lunch.
I see some every now and then, it should be counted though they are not real.
Coming home from manila to Lopez, Quezon. On the way to Gumaca, Quezon you can a see a mermaid made of stone sitting on top of two rocks called Mag-asawang Bato. I don’t know what exactly the story behind those rocks. Try to ask some of the old hags there, maybe you can hear a great story. All I know is a couple was taken away by a big wave and then wave left a big two rocks. I should know the story I was born in Gumaca.

Happy Endings?


Peter Pan can fly but the airplanes do fall down and crash. Lucky can survive but most of the passengers died. People don’t need magic pan they just need safety in travelling.
Wendy and little John can fly using tinker bell’s pixie dust. They can travel anywhere in Neverland, compared to a kid who walks miles from their house to school just to attend his/her class every day. Sipag diba! Kamote for dinner.
Imagine how many fats can Jack and Jill can consume in eating too much chocolates, candies and breads. Good thing that they escaped from the witch and avoided from being the dinner. Are they aware of how many children are hungry in the street? A kid that has one meal in a day sometimes never eats anything at all.
Cinderella got the fairy god mother while homeless people, street children have DSWD for human trafficking and child labor. It’s a tie though Cinderella is much older than these kids.
Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall, fell down and broke into pieces. Then one day a man came and fixed him. I just wish that method can apply to heart breaks and broken families. But it’s not that easy, In real life we don’t have magic glues for relationship and magic band-aids for broken marriage.
Frog prince can play the golden ball with the princess but cats and dogs in the street are being killed and eaten by people. Trip lang nila ang asusena at siopao.

I used to be a big fan of fairy tale books because I’m inspired of the happy endings. Eventually growing up is more of endings than happiness. Now that I’m old enough I can only see the jokes in every fairy tale books. If only I knew that from the start, I will cut the pages and make a boat or plane made of paper instead. But I’m not that rude to ruin someone’s happy ending.
Let's be child once in a while.
Then if its happy then its not the end, Its only begun.



RITZ KID

In the office: a lady said “this is wrong, this is so so wrong” after receiving a letter from the front desk.
Girl bought a seven thou bag in Aldo
She wants a pair of slippers Christmas gift from Havaianas.
Year hectic with out of towns and out of the country shopping schedules.
Some of them love branded clothes and some of them appreciate so so clothes also. Good Thing
Braices are needed for teeth and they go to salon every once in a while.
Guy said: “dude you have to buy that shirt it fits you good”. “Are we good?” “Don’t you just hate traffic” “I’m staying here till seven coding ako Gosh!”.
She doesn’t recognize Jollibee, Mcdonalds and my favourite KFC.

My mind is blank

Don't ask me about the drawing, this is just one of those days that i'm blank and playing in front the laptop. It's a like microscopic blood eaten amoebas. I'm just damn blank for now.

Heart Cushion

God only knows when a heart can survive and the failures can be fatal when one can’t get out of the loneliness. Do you see the logic why the guy in “somewhere in time” movie decides to die when he no longer can bears the pain of losing the girl from another time. It will take a lifetime to understand someone’s situation when all you can do is to watch that person die every morning. It’s all about loving, losing and moving on. No one can skip the pain stage in every break-up and in every heart aches.

NO TO GRAY AREAS

sabi ko nga... Is no to gray areas..
Again just go to paint application. Open a new file and click the button "brush" chose the lines and select the  black color. Since black is more visible in white background. Obvious! and draw.. if your mind is drained of creative juice. Hahaha.. Don't hesitate to ask google for some pictures. Happy drawing day!

ZIG Bee in the pencil

December 11, 1982.  It was my birthday.  Lopez, Quezon.  It was my birthplace and Ziegfred Cervantes Noscal is my name.
Remembering how I grew up could be painstaking but I can walk you through and I can walk you around my life up to how you can see me writing this autobiography.

I am a man of many definitions but mine and Mr. Webster might differ.
Being a kid is typical but living in a box made me different. I thought Lopez is a box, a rounded box.
I thought I will stay there all my life.  It was my comfort zone.

I still see the back pages of our calendar, written with musical compositions that I need to memorize because I have a bandurria performance the next month after.  It still resounds in me the voice of Soeur Surilla, as she repeatedly made us recite and pronounce words in certain accents.  I can remember tiresome days and nights preparing for competitions and bagging the bacon right after.  I can no longer count how many legs I had broken every time everyone wishes me luck but I will definitely not forget the time when ‘Nanay’ will make me a lipstick bronzer because I need to get up on a stage to deliver my valedictory address.

‘Nanay’ had high hopes that I will become a priest and I even thought so.  Dare me to recite a mass and you will definitely lose your bet.  So I started as a knight of the altar. But girls from the choir are singing too strong that right after grade school, I decided to start quitting the celibacy call.

PUP had been my teen and collegiate home and I am now starting to define my place, myself and my family.  My ‘Nanay’ is an Escobar, but my middle name is Cervantes.  So I had my share of walking out.

I know I sing but I didn’t know that I will be paid to sing.  It paid my studies well.  At this age, I already know how to strategize.
In my world, I think I’m okay.  I wake up in the morning, walk to church, be an hour early in school, beat my butt out during the day, walk to church, then go home.  Sounds right, right?

Everyone say high school years are your best years in life.  But I don’t remember any of those years as best, but rather usual.  I had my teenage heartbreaks, yes, and I had my time to even make a heart break, mind you.

College, for me, is purely academic.  Mess up on your grade school, mess up on your high school, but never mess up on your college because this your Grade 1 to your life.  Just like high school, every day is usual and getting a Latin honour is just usual.  I’m a top-notch, remember?

Then the world began to open up.  This is the world that I am not sure of.  All I wanted to do is to graduate, and I am now a graduate.  What’s next?

My credentials say I’m a top-notch but the world says I’m a toddler and I don’t even know how to walk yet.  So I started my steps.   I tried to unlearn and relearn everything.  My box is gone.  I thought life is straightforward but it is reading between the lines instead.

I started struggling, but meeting different people, who are just as struggling as you are, makes you a better person and a wiser individual.

The key to success is meeting the right people, being in the right place and surrounding yourself with the bests.   Prerequisite though, is that, you must already knew yourself and what you want.  That is the difficult part and that is step 1.

In my case, it has to be always scientific.  Observe->make questions->draw your hypothesis->do your experiment->then conclude.
This is my guide.  This can be your guide.

Step 2, define what success is to you.  If you think success is money, find a high paying job, invest in cash flows, there are a lot of options.  If success for you is happiness and peace, invest in your love ones, your partner, your friends, your family.

Step 3 then, is to open up your options.  Often times you will fail, but consistently work on it and you will get it in His timing.  The game is long.  Being fast is just short time but being consistent, usually, makes the clincher.

Step 4.  Continuously improve.  Learn new tricks.

Step 5 is the easiest.  Pray.   Ask for guidance and that you will always be blessed. Share what you have and share it entirely.  Without you knowing, it is all coming back to you, in ways you can never imagine.

Sharing you the Bio-Rhythm of a friend. :)

SUGAR & SPICE

Parang can't seem to come up with any idea but flowers. I'm stranded with flowers, flowers flowers. Here's another flowers.
Use your paint application. Draw something for a change.

TAGAY.TAY! (I snatched the name from Tots)


Jologz pips combined for a trip to TGTY. No more kwentos i don’t want the drama detailed stories for now. I’ll just count the 11 things I remembered that day. I’ll post some of the pictures later.
Sour Tuna Kimchi
Nhamay’s very own version of kimchi. Which is sour and spicy but I like the tuna honestly. Note that we never complained with taste of kimchi but it has a very strong aroma. It smells like 5 Indians in one room and not to mention it sticks with our clothes,bedsheets and skins.
Zara’s Couple Sucks. (it’s original name form zen forgive him for the words)
Socks are fine what strikes me about the gifts is about an old saying whenever you received a pair of socks as a gift from someone you have to pay the person who gave the gift with any amount to avoid future conflict with that person.
Zen’s miniature pumpkins
Zen said it’s a trick or treat gifts. It’s a mini jack-o-lantern that kids used to carry with a candle inside while walking in the street. Of course there is an exemption if you want to know that you have to ask Misel with the odd one.
Tapa King’s Unsweetened Champorado
We requested Hawaiian or Pepperoni from Totz but the pizza turned into a champorado which is the odd one because champorado suppose to be sweet but its bitter so I requested sugar from the counter. I don’t get it if really the champorado is bitter or the conversation while eating.
Jaja’s Friendship Bracelet from BORA
Dapat kasi we’re wearing party hats but it’s too obvious so why not wear the bracelet from jaja. So far I received three gifts that day.
TGTY Place of worships near the heavens
Zen’s famous remark “very liberating.” Just so you know we need to pray when we are inside the church but it’s the other way around for him. Doesn’t sound so bitchy but quite naughty lang i guess. The catch is you need to climb the mini mountain to get there. Muscle pain come on!

Fart Choir’s Members @ Caleruega.
I didn’t count the times I heard myself and them farting at least some of them especially Misel and Ninang had the decencies to say “uutot ako ha”. But I did the record breaking six-second fart.
ShortCUT to Manila
Erol is a good driver. Safety is not the problem but don’t give him the navigation since he can’t do two things at the same time. We all fell asleep for a moment going back to manila and after few minutes we’re lost. I’m pointing my finger to my face I shouldn’t sleep while he was driving since I know he could experiment and mix up the word Short Cut.
Misel’s Exam
The only reason why I don’t want the long short cut ways it’s because our resident psychologist is inside the car and reviewing for her final exam. We have the deadline for 11:30 we need the chopper or the teleportation panels.
Ninang’s Surprise Video
“You are the only exception and you are the only exception” “ may nagtext hindi lang isa kundi dalawa” inspired with music video made by ninang under supervision of someone. I’m allotting my few hours studying the movie maker this coming November.
GODBless the Jologz.
Thanks
