Superhero ba 'ka mo?

Sana ako nalang si Batman...

Para ako na bahala sa lahat at paniguradong pulido ang gawa ko. Ikaw ba naman ang bigyan ng mahiwagang utility belt na naglalaman na yata ng lahat ng solusyon sa lahat ng klase ng problema sa mundo. Sikat pa ako sa chicks.

Sana ako si Spider-man...

Para may spider-sense ako upang makaiwas ako sa matitinding gulo. Pwede pa akong tumambay sa mga dingding ng mga gusali. Sikat pa ako sa chicks.

Sana ako si Shaider...

Para pag nagkakainitan na tatawagin ko na si Vavilos at pasasabugin lahat ng maaangas na gustong humassle sa akin. Sikat pa ako sa chicks, lalo na kay Ani.

Sana ako si Gokou...

Para pag gipit na ako, magsu-super saiyan ako at ikakame hame wave lahat ng gustong yumurak sa mga pangarap ko, at kaya kong iligtas ang mundo.  Sikat pa ako sa mga chikiting.

Sana ako si Darna...

Para kahit nakikipagrambulan mukhang diyosa at seksi pa din ako. Sikat pa ako sa mga chi-- ay di na pala. Charing.

Pero paano ba yan hindi ako superhero, kasi si Red lang ako.

Ay wala palang "lang" dapat yon. Si Red ako, at di ko na pala kailangan maging superhero dahil kahit karaniwang tao ako - wag ka! - si Lord naman ang backer ko. Walang makakahadlang na problema sa patuloy na pagyabong ng aking sarili, kasi nga si Lord ang backer ko. Taob lahat!

At aanhin ko pa ba ang maging superhero? Sa dami ng mga kaibigan at nagmamahal sa akin na binigay ni Lord, kahit ano pang trobol o gusot yan, kayang lagpasan.

Kaya kahit tulad ngayon na mejo nakakadown ang mga pangyayari sa aking mundo, kaya ko pang ngumiti, mag joke at tumawa. Konting malas lang naman yan. Lilipas din 'ika nga. Kayang daanin sa kape at usapan. Kayang ilakad lang.

Kaya nagpapasalamat pa din ako. Dahil punong-puno pa din ng biyaya ang buhay ko. Kaya ko pang mag "Relaaaaksss, watch a movie," at ngumisi-ngisi lang. Tenk yu, Lord!

Ayoko na din palang maging superhero. Dahil ang mga superhero tila laging pasan ang buong mundo. Buti ako pasong may lupa lang buhat ko, pwede ko pa bitawan. Sisiw lang.

Naisip ko tuloy, kawawa nga naman si Batman. Siya nalang lagi ang bahala.

Sa puno't dulo din pala, sapat na na tao ako na backer si Lord. Sapat na ako maging si Red. I am good enough, kumbaga.

Kaya itong pagod na nararamdaman ko, ilalakad ko nalang muna. Maghahanap na din ako ng kainuman ng kape at kausap. I'm sure, may hinanda ng tulong ang backer ko.

Salamat po, Lord. Dahil po sa Inyo, all is swabe sa buhay ko.

    I remember someone telling me. "Hindi ikaw si superman na hindi nasasaktan. At kung ikaw nga, siya na nga ang kryptonite mo. SOMEBODY SAVE YOU."

    Tapos naisip ko, oo nga malungkot maging Superman (na takbuhan ng mga malulungkot na chicks. hahaha). Mas masaya na ikaw ang sinesave. SAVE ME! SAVE ME! Hehehe

    (Siyempre ibang context ako. Pero superhero thing pa rin naman)

    Carms: Salamat. Astig ng Boss natin 'no?

    Jeco: Di na natin kailangan maging Superman o Batman. We're already superheroes in our own right, I believe. hehe.

    Frank: Salamat, tsong. Alam ko din naman na okay lang eh. Gusto ko lang magreklamo ng konti sa blog dahil walang malapit na pasong pwedeng basagin. hehe. Gusto ko na maglaro sa Sabado. Pantagal din ng stress yon. hehe. At Banahaw next week siyempre. :)

    ngayon ko lang nabasa ito ah, anong petsa na? hehe.. but mabuti na rin na ngayon ko ito nabasa, because with my current state of mind, this entry made me feel good. for a while it made me forget all the problems crowding my mind. and yeah, it also reminded me that lahat ng pinu-problema ko ngayon ay magkakaroon rin ng solusyon,kaya wag masyado dibdibin. everything will be okay dahil ang backer mo ay backer ko rin, hehe!

I'm half gay. That makes me 1/4 female.

(Inspired by a conversation with Angge last Sunday and Jeco's Guilty Pleasures.) That's what I told people back in college when they asked me why I was the way I was. Now, I conveniently tell people, "Mass Comm ako eh," to explain why I can appreciate the clothes worn by the characters in Sex and the City The Movie. But those are just excuses. They say it's being in touch with my feminine side. Well, whatever. I read Sweet Valley Twins and Sweet Valley High back in elementary school along with my Marvel and DC comics. I never got into that Hardy Boys bit though. I played and still play basketball, tatsing, habulan, luksong baka, soccer and other physical sports. But I also played and would probably still play 10-20 and Chinese garter. I've cried and will probably still cry in some movies (Patch Adams immediately comes to mind) and have voluntarily watched my fair share of chick flicks. But I didn't flinch during the battle scenes of Braveheart and haven

Adventure update

After a week it seems that, aside from me and Frank, no one else could commit to a November 30 trip. We kinda forgot that most of our media practitioner friends do not have holidays and often have work on Saturdays. Therefore, we have decided to reschedule the trip. However, kami naman ang di pwede ng December 2, which is when most of you can go. Hehe. In any case, paguuntugin muna namin ulit ni Frank ang ulo namin to come up with a schedule and itinerary that will benefit the most people (note: most, hindi lahat, as we have agreed that it's impossible to please everybody). we will inform you ASAP what we come up with. Oks ba yon? Maraming salamat. :) Meanwhile, Tarra has an outstanding invitation to watch Enchanted. Anyone want to watch a movie? Moreover, I heard through the grapevine that Tarra is going to organize an Enchanted Kingdom trip. Di ba Tarra? Hehe.

Inanities

You told me to sit still. And I tried and did for a while. But then a twitch and an itch happened. And stillness eluded me. So go back to being still, you said. But running and jumping seemed so fun. I thought you'd get angry but you just watched. Aren't you going to stop me? I asked. A simple no you uttered. You're free to do what you want, you said. So I ran and I jumped and turned cartwheels and all. And I felt free. I felt light. I felt right. Then I got tired and my jump became a skip. My run became a walk. And I turned to you and asked, May I sit once more? You smiled and pointed beside you. My child, your spot has been waiting for you Until you have chosen to sit once more. That's what you said. And I walked towards you, With your hand you reached out. Sit here with me, you said. Sit and be still. And I tried and I did. And rest came to soothe my weariness. And balance asked if it may sit with me. And you smiled. And I felt free. I felt light. I felt right.
