stranded

Treasure moments

Standing in front of Manila City Hall for almost two hours and walking around Divisoria the whole day and night while my clothes are soaking wet weren’t that bad at all; after all I was with mommy and Ivan.

As a matter of fact, that would be something I would treasure for the rest of my life. Being with them at that moment didn’t make me feel a single worry; instead, it caused me to sing all the songs I know. Yes, I had my concert under the rain while waiting for jeepneys and FX, with Ivan and mommy as my solid and patient listener.

Thank God for that unforgettable experience.


with a smile

Pass your smile

In a crowded place where everybody’s busy and tired of his/her work, I gave Ivan and my self a task. A simple yet challenging job (feeling Big Brother). Out of the blue, we must make people smile at us. It wasn’t that easy since strangers around us seem very serious with their own businesses.

The strategy: smile and wait till the aliens around smile back at you.

The result: One questioned the reason behind our sweet smiles (para kasing nakakaloko). Some didn’t even notice the beam on our seductive lips. Most just ignored our kindness with the who are you? look on their faces. And of course, others returned our smiles. That’s the most rewarding of all!

After the whole day making ourselves look stupid in front of strangers, we both win the game and surpass the challenge successfully.

There may be few who appreciated our smiles. Perhaps, not more than ten. But every smile makes our lives worthwhile coz we know, somehow, we made them see the beauty of life and feel joy even just for a while.

Mission accomplished!

8 waves

Together Everybody Achieves More / Set your priorities

It was a great May ender. We rocked and chilled out at 8waves waterpark. And yeah, the treatment was super high deluxe. For only P15, we enjoyed the good services of one of the most popular resorts in town (including two snacks and lunch) except the transportation coz we rode in a truck (as usual, enjoy!).

Unconfident of my macho body, I’ve got no choice but to wear sleeveless and shorts. Gosh! Daig ko pa ang mga kalalakihan sa kamachohan.

Part of the outing was a team building activity. Fortunately I belong to group 3. But unfortunately, we had to go and leave 8 waves to talk to Ma’am Bondad about the yearbook. Hmp!

While everybody’s challenged in 8waves, Kuya Kheno and I were also challenged facing Ma’am Bondad. Parang monster lang! I was tongue-tied coz I really know nothing about laying-out. Grabe, kakatakut. After our appointment with the vice-president of SMCB (naks, bigatin) I jumped and run for joy. Hahaaay! 8waves here we come again.

At 8waves, they were having an evaluation of the team building activity. Too bad I missed the fun and bonding moments with my teammates. I wasn’t with them the entire activity. Nakakahiya.

We were just given a few hours to swim. I was able to bond with my bk. Especially during shower time. We used 5 showers sa gulo namin! We also ate the leftover spaghetti with our bare hands. Imagine! Am I pig?

In church, we ate sopas care of Mr. and Mrs. Manalili. And of course, the awarding of the winners in the held activity. 5th, 4th and 3rd placers were announced. Our team was not yet called. Winner gets P600. And the 1st place goes to…(drumroll) group 3! Happy? No. OP? Yes.

Though I know I don’t deserve to be shared with the prize, they still gave me P60 for being with them during lunch and dinner. Sobrang kakahiya. Is my face thick?

I was a teammate but for them, I am. Thank you so much SIYAMPU!
