death...the one that spirals around the lives of everyone, be it the rich and famous or the poor and nothing

--------------

all saints day just came around the corner. i came to realize that some people just go out and visit the dead just to look for some guys dressed in still oversized tshirts, metrosexuals in semi-fit polos, bitches in micro mini-skirts or ladies wrapped in designer clothes.

why don't you all just die?

--------------

this month's theme is about the DEAD. just because it's november...maybe i'll talk about people dying literally or metaphorically...

and speaking of metaphors,

something struck me while i was walking around the cemetary..

i remembered people telling me that, i die in the middle of some beautiful friendship. eh?

they would usually describe the *thing* as I... would go inside some circle of friends and spread the *love* or whatever that i bring to people (mystery,pride,confidence,chaos,wealth,etc.) then things would go very well. And as time passes by, like the aging tree... I would just simply die--leaving the group with no apparent reason.

i never really looked for the reason behind these mysterious deaths...
or maybe just like the *things* that i've said about learning to "feel" for someone again has it's complications because of the *things* that i've experienced

and after walking around scores of caskets and tombstones,
nothing really bothered me much...thinking that i am just like those inside them...DEAD

------------------------

you're a never-ending spiral of hope revolving around my mind that flies around in circles...

ano naman to?

Currently feeling: dead

still feeling the effects of the DEAD creeping up my veins.
this loooong vacation is way to lengthy it's already boring me to death. since people forgot to pay attention to certain things... this vacation shouldn't be this "hectic"

i'm at the verge of finishing FINAL FANTASY X (yeah! ngayon lang ako naglaro) and i'm halfway SHADOW OF THE COLOSSUS.

what's with those colossi? walking around the vastness of their unnamed world..doing nothing but...walking. Even death got bored stalking them, thinking they don't even deserve to die since heaven/hell has more stuff happening in them.

---------------

Boredom...one thing that i can't get rid of; it sicken's me! maybe i'm under ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder)...

maybe this is why IM GOING THROUGH A LOT OF THINGS... and what are those? don't ask...

im so bored im even putting up this entry in english...which i seldom do nowadays. and if im remember correctly, i read it in someone's jounal that pure unadulterated english would make you look smarter (or even pure idiomatic filipino). hahahaha not that i like to look like some highly fluent english writer....im just waaaaaay too bored

and it's also a break-away from my usual script-story like entries before.

im already longing for the weekend to pass by. There's so much work to be done in school, and this vacation is just bursting my bubble.

i can think of things...but they fall in everything that is mundane. maybe im just daring to think of ordinary things to do.
that's why i miss....................ahem!

life's full of shit...
luckily, my septic tank of a life is not really that full. thanks to people who constantly talk and flush some out to the drainage. (hahaha whatta metaphor)

--------

ive been talking to some friends a while ago... from usual green jokes to in-depth philosophical outlooks to psychological incapacities.
and it really amazes me that ive been talking like...not myself. confucius might have possessed me.

it's been a long time since ive seen the sky so clear...and as well as my mind.

to cut the story, the conversation gave me a good story...which in time, have a script. cute plot... although somewhere in EROTICA genre still hehehehe

just had to type something... feeling good never had been this...jubilant (well, not as euphoric as the one that happened to me...long time ago hehehe)

Currently feeling: melancholy

dapat matanggal na si FRANZEN... kahit sabihin mong kailangan ng pamilya nya...kaso bakit pa ginawa ang rules? malamang marami naman magdodonate sa kanyang mga rich people... pero hindi na ako naaawa sa kanya.

eto namang ABSCBN...obvious na, pagkakakitaan pa ang mga pilipino. kailangan pa ba iboto yan?

palibhasa pag natanggal si Franzen, hindi na manonood ang kalahati ng pilipinas... hahaha

pero tama na...oa na ang palabas na big brother...sayang naman

kakagaling ko lang ng Banaue Rice Terraces!

GRABE sa EXPERIENCE!

dun ako umupo sa taas ng jeep kasama nila Red, Val, Karen, Mons, Alvin(?), some chinese guy at Lolo Ed Celestino...panalo! alog alog kami sa taas habang nagpipigil ng ihi. Hindi pa natapos dun; may isang daanan na naghampas sakin ng mga halaman. Tawa kami ng tawa...hindi ko namalayan puro tinik na yung kamay ko...dinudugo na pala ako hahahaha tapos umulan pa. Wetness is next to ugliness!

pagdating dun station na kung saan magsisimula na kaming MAGLAKAD, nagsigawan na ang mga tao dahil 3 kilometrong paikot-ikot ala-harry potter at lord of the rings.

pagdating sa INN...iniwan lang ang gamit...tapos pinadirecho agad kami sa waterfalls! another 2 hour walk. ulit na naman sa paikot-ikot na paglalakad habang inaadmire ang gandah ng nature. dun kami mismo dumaan sa terraces. SI Ms Cha gusto nang umiyak...yung iba nakatingin na lang sa kawalan.

astig yung waterfalls! pero grabe parin sa pagbaba, para kaming mga spiderman na umaakyat-baba sa mga jagged rocks na minsan ay umaalog para dagdag thrill sa paglaglag. tapos nung nasa waterfalls na kami, nagtanggalan ng damit ang mga tao, lumusong sa tubig na parang hindi pagod...ayon! nauso ang pulikat. Si Ivan muntik na malunod... hindi pa namin pinapansin ni alex kasi akala namin joke time; pero nung sumigaw na sya, tinawag na namin ang mga iba pang guys sa waterfalls..(hindi ako hero, ang payat ko eh hahaha) gusto kaming kainin ng talon... walang nakalapit kay Ivan, iniisip ko tapos na ang pelikula...tapos pagtingin namin sa gilid nagsilitawan ang mga SUPELOCALS, tumakbo sa tubig na parang akala mo aspalto ang nilalakaran. JESUS CHRIST walks on water kumbaga...ayun yung mga Bioman ang nagligtas kay Ivan habang nagyoyosi yung ibang tao dahil walang mgawa hahaha

ALAM KO NA KUNG ANO NARAMDAMAN NI FRODO sa pagakyat sa Cirith Ungol kasama ang walang kwentang guide na si GOllum. Dahil mula sa waterfalls ay bumalik kami sa Inn...peroyung inutil na guide namin ay dumaan sa shortcut...shortcut to hell! inabot kami ng dilim tapos nawala si "koya" guide...kaya kaming pito (Mutley,Emerson, Jeff, Karen, Mon, etc etc, ako) ay parang Survivor Vanuatu at hinanap pabalik sa Inn. Kung saan saan kami napadpad...ikot dito ikot doon... tapos nagugulat na lang kami pag walang daan at may biglang susulpot na local at sasabihin "not that way" English speaking ang mga igorot! talo pa ako... muntik kami malaglag sa mga bangin pero dahil mahusay kaming tribo, nakabalik kami ng In ng kumpleto.

(habang naglalakd sa shortcut to death, lumilingon kami sa likod para kung sakaling may kasunod kaming ibang group. makkikita sila mula sa malayo na parang mga fireflies na gumagalaw. yung ibang group nag blink blink ng lights na parang morse code...sumasagot na ako sa blinking ng blink din...tapos napaisip ako... HINDI NAMAN AKO MARUNONG MAG MORSE CODE! HAHAHHA)

other memorable stuff:
- ang inuman session kasama ng mga prof habang nanonood ng video ng mga babaeng naka bathing suit sa gitna ng gubat
- ang pag gatecrash namin dun sa kabilang section para maki-inom kasama ni Sir Dave
- ang pagtawa ko hanggang sa makatulog dahil lasing
- ang Inn...walang ilaw! Kandila to the max! parang aalayan ang mga patay.
- ang pagbabayo ni manong...ng palay sa labas ng Inn.
- dinapuan ako ng fireflies...astig! kinda romantic at cinematic kaso katabi ko lalake kaya bigla kaming tumawa
- ang pagtakbo sa gitna ng ulanan habang pabalik sa taas nung pauwi na
- ang pakikipagtawaran sa mga tindera na muntik na kaming isumpa dahil binabarat talaga ni Sir Ed hehehe
- ang paglaglag ni Alex sa bangin at sinalo sya ng mga halaman
- ang pag-usok ng katawan ni Sir Daniel...astig kaya, parang spontaneous combustion...sana hahaha
- ang pagdagan sakin ni Alex dahil hindi nakayang maglakad habang ako'y natutulog sa sahig
- ang pakikipagtawanan sa mga new found friends...yet again
- bumalik na ang boses ko! sa wakas...iniisip nila sobrang tanda ko na at parang hinahalukay at galing sa kaldero ang boses ko
- ang pagkain namin sa hotel...aba nga naman! may hotel pala dun bago sa inn...pahirapan ng buhay to
- ang paglalakad ko na parang sobrang tanda na...pinagtawanan na tuloy ako nila Ms.Dolly at Sir Ed...(kung sino pa talaga ang matatanda)
- AND LAST... ang mismong trip na ito...kahit kasumpa-sumpa ang hirap na dinanas ko, enjoy ako dito at sabi nga ni cookie "something to tell the kids" and i had short time to admire the beauty of nature and feel proud that at least i saw the Banaue Rice Terraces up-close and not just from the books
