Journey Towards North

“Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.” Life’s really a challenge! A puzzle to finish, a story to foretold, a road to drive in and a sky to reach. Have you ever felt like reminiscing the past thinking those momentous memories you feel like sharing? Well, I do. Today is always the perfect time.

Good and bad memories are always worth remembering. Now, I’m sharing one of my unforgettable experiences as I have traveled to Manila last April 16, 2008 with my family to visit our relatives in Nueva Ecija. I think we would be staying there for a couple of days. My uncles fetch us in the airport. At last! We arrived at exactly 7:00pm. I missed that place so much where I played with my cousins once without thinking what’s happening around us. My lolas, lolos, my tito, tita, and everybody else are there smiling waiting at the Jalova Street upon our arrival. I went out smelling the air that’s different from Ozamiz but sad to say, I’m a sort of tired that night so I missed the fun that had happened. I don’t know what had happened and I’m not interested in knowing because for sure, I’ll just end up regretting. My body is just tired that time so I slept and later on, I woke up early.

Criiing!Criiiing! The clock beside my ears is bugging me so I just woke up and went outside. It’s silent and I’m not used to be in a place that’s quiet so I decided to walk around for some tour around the place. Around 5:00am, I fixed myself because they said, we will be going to Our Lady of Manaoag and it’s actually a church with miraculous Virgin Mary. We stayed there for a while and start going to Vigan after eating our lunch. The trip was quite long but my eyes aren’t dizzy to sleep but instead, I opened my eyes for I guess almost 4 hours watching different views of different landscapes and mountains enjoying my seat at the leftmost side of the van. The place was super cool! They’re preserving the old houses, mansions, and roads. They’re also preserving the Filipino culture. I had the opportunity to visit their mini zoo which is the Baluarte ni Singson. 12:00 in the evening and we still haven’t find a place to sleep in. We continue trying, looking for a place. Successfully, we slept in Ilocos Norte around 1:00.

Around 4:00 early in the morning, we traveled to Baguio. The road is causing me a headache but that doesn’t concerns me at all. As long as I’m happy, I don’t mind. We discover the place and I enjoyed it at all. I’ve seen lots of foreigners, unfamiliar faces and complete strangers. Late at night, I myself together with my tita and mother sneak out to buy some stuffs. I woke up early in the morning hiking around looking on how wonderful God’s creation. People aren’t sleeping and I keep wondering why Baguio is the summer capital of the Philippines, but I guess it’s because of the place, the weather, and maybe because of their treatment towards people.

April 19, we rode back home in Nueva Ecija to rest and the sweet days are really unforgettable. I’m not that tired so I spend some time visiting our neighbors which are my relatives at the same time until such time that I fell asleep. It took us a while to prepare ourselves for tomorrows’ trip. Our next destination is the Manila Ocean Park so we went there from Nueva Ecija to Manila. Many things happened at it was all fun.

April 21, 2008, we went to Tagaytay to visit the place. I’ve ridden a horse, cable car and zip line. I was able to see the smallest volcano in the Philippines which is the Mt. Taal. Everything was very meaningful and consequential. We stayed there for almost a day and then we went to UP Diliman to visit few of my cousins there. I can’t wait to see them and I didn’t sleep that night for some reasons. We traveled like 15 minutes and went to few places. Around 10:00pm, we went to a lap in the Up and started stargazing. Through their improvised telescope, I’ve seen the Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. It’s awesome. I learned lots of information and ideas about the galaxies, solar system and many more. The whole week was very nice. It’s one of the best days of my life!

Everything was fun and amusing. I want to stay there for a long time but I know we’ll go home soon and I will surely miss them. Them means my relatives, friends, the people I’ve met and places I’ve step into. Everything was nice and I’ve appreciated the place. I just end up sleeping the next day…

Durog(2 timer)

-I'm posting this to my blog just to share.I saw this from the internet and I feel like copying this and writing it here.

Feel free to leave some comments or any violent reactions:]

This is issue once again and evacuate rather blog about love. This time, pag usapan naman natin ang mga two timer... Before anything else, wala akong pinatatamaan dito ha... Eto yung kadalasan lang naman nangyayari. REALITY kung baga! Masarap mag two time diba? Yung tipong dalawa dalawa sila... Tatlo tatlo... Tapos minsan sampu sampu panga eh. Pero minsan, naisip ba natin kung ano ang epekto nito sa nasasaktan natin? Masarap mag two time...

Pagkatapos mo dun sa isa, lilipat ka naman sa isa tapos sa iba naman, hanggang sa magsawa ka tapos iiwan mo lang? kasi may nakita kang mas gwapo o mas maganda sa kanya? Tapos minsan pag nag-aaway kayo ni number 1 mo,damay lahat pati second, third at fourth kawawa naman sila noh? Samantalang wala naman silang ginagawa sa iyo kundi ang intindihin ka at mahalin lang.

Bakit nga kaya masarap ang mag two time? kasi, hindi ka marunong makontento sa kung ano meron ang boyfriend o girlfriend mo? kasi, merong mas better sa present mo? O baka naman kasi selfish ka... At ayaw mong iliko yung present mo If it's for your own safe... Kahit nasasaktan mo na siya... Eh paano kung sa iyo yun? Sa tingin mo makakaya mo? Sa tingin mo okay lang sa iyo? Diba masakit din? at tsaka mo pa lang malalaman...kung mahal mo talaga siya.. pag hindi na ikaw ang mahal niya? Pag may mahal na siyang iba? Guys! masarap magmahal at mahalin... sana lang marunong tayong makuntento sa ibinigay sa atin. Tayo na nga lang ang nagkakaintindihan tapos tayo pa ang magtatalunan?

Guys! Wake up! Mahalin nyo ang boyfriend...girlfriends nyo.. Be loyal! Sorry sa mga natatamaan ko. Ginising ko lang kayo sa matagal nyong pagkatulog. Baka kasi pag gising nyo, wala na yung taong nagmamahal sa inyo ng totoo. so sad... ehem! mag isip na kayo ha. Payong kapatid lang.

Tignan at Pagmasdan

Anong nangyari sa ating kalikasan?

Ganito ba ang ating kinalakihan?

Mga puno'y unti-unting namamatay

Pinuputol hanggang mawalan ng saysay

Marami pa tayong pwedeng gawin dito

Magtanim! Solusyon sa pr0blemang ito

Mga bagay, ating pakahalagahan

Ating kalikasan ay ating ingatan

Ang mga basura'y itapon sa lalagyan

Mga kalat natin ay 'wag nating hayaan

Tayo ay magbago, dapat patunayan

Dahil ang kalikasan ay kayamanan

Ngayon ating tignan at pagmasdan ito

Di ba't maganda ang buhay natin dito

'Wag hayaang masira ang kalikasan

Ito ay alagaan magpakailanman

I don't need no education.

Blah! Blah! Blah! Toooot..criiiiing:]

6:30 in the morning, my phone rang and I quickly stood up running as fast as I could to the comfort room.

“I’m late! I’m sure I will be late today”

I’m getting lazier each day

I’m screwed

I accidentally get bumpped by a door without feeling the pain.

I packed my things and ate for just a short minute.

6:45 am and I’m not yet prepared

My hair is long and I’m afraid I forgot to go to the barber shop

My eyes are drooling with so many uncomplete tasks and yet here I am standing

Wasting my time thinking about what’s happening and how to get rid of these stuffs

“I can do this!”

They laughed so hard that me myself laugh for their funny faces.

It’s Monday, suppose to be a “SCHOOL DAY” but there’s no class for a week and I’m sure they’re enjoying it but I can’t think of a way on how to be happy despite that I like to go to school.

All I can see is that they’re thinking that I’m becoming crazy

“a student like you should be happy because of the short sem break” my sister said.

But I’m missing school

The laughters, the tears and the joys that’s different when I’m in school is different when I’m alone at home

The problems, the teachers voices is different at home

My classmates and schoolmates are different from my parents and people at home

I’m sick because “I'm missing school days. ”I don't need no education.
