Kwentong Barbero

Ewan ko kung ano nga ba ang talagang ibig sabihin nito, pero siguro naman nalalapit sa kwento rin ng kaibigan mong di naman totoo. At ang ibig sabihin lang nito ay isa ‘yong kasinungalingan. Sabagay, pwede rin namang mangyari o nangyari, pero gaya nga ng isang kwentong barbero (kung tama ang pagkakaintindi ko) e di naman talaga yon nangyari. Matagal ko na ring alam na apektado masyado ang taong ito sa mga bagay na nasa paligid niya o mga pangyayaring nagaganap sa mundo. Mapa-pelikula man o kanta o ano pa man, nakakagawa at nakakabuo siya ng kwentong barbero o mga serye ng kasinungalingang halata mo namang galing lang sa imahinasyon nya at sa isang nasabing pelikula or pangyayari. Itulad na natin dito ang makailang-ulit niyang pagsakay sa mga tirada kong peke naman at puro imbento lang din na serye ng kwento. Patok sa kanya to. At iniisip niya ring tama siya sa mga hula niya—kung saan oo nalang ako ng oo tungkol sa mga iyon, para magmukhang makatotohanan pa.

Minsan naisip ko sukdulan na rin ang panggagantso ko sa kanya pero wala akong magagawa, para naman maisip niya ring magresearch o manaliksik sa katotohanan ng buhay ko at ng kung sinong imbentong nilalang—na wala talagang ganun. O siguro nang matuto rin siyang umayos at tigilan na ang mga pantasya niya sa buhay. Oo, ako man ay malakas mangarap at mag-imagine gaya niya, pero alam ko ang aking hangganan. Ngayon nga ay sinabi kong ibinaon ko na sila—ang mga hindi totoong 'iniibig’ ko na nakilala ko san mang lupalop ng Pinas. Hindi pa ba niya nahahalata ang mga detalye ay mali at hindi ba siya napag-iisip man lang? Kung mahal ko nga ang taong iyon (na hindi naman totoo) edi sana hindi ko rin minahal ang taong mahal ko ngayon. O kaya’y hindi naman kaya ako ang napaiikot niya at patuloy rin akong nagiimbento ng karagdagang kasinungalingan ayon sa kagustuhan nya? Ano man yon sa mga nabanggit, sigurado akong ninanais din niyang makarinig ng mga katulad ng kasinungalingan niya. Problema nga lang, ako, tumigil na at talagang nakaranas na ng maraming bagay na hindi niya alam—at siya, ewan ko lang.

Nabulabog ako sa huling pahayag niya. Inaasahan ko na rin naman na ganoon nga yon. Nag-umpisa yan sa pagkokonekta nya sa mga bagay sa paligid—mapa-commercial man o TV show. Hanggang sa eto na nga ang isang pelikulang banyaga na umamin siya tungkol sa pagiging bi. Oo, alam ko na yon e. Halata nanamang feel na feel nya yung kwento ng pelikula. Sabagay, sa mga nabanggit naman niya e me katotohanan: yung tungkol sa lalaking kursunada nya. Totoo yon. Pero yung pagiging katulad umano sa pelikulang yon, ay naku. Heto nanaman. Minsan nga rin iniisip ko kung ano talaga ang totoo sa mga nagaganap sa buhay niya. At ngayon ngang gabi makalipas ang mga naobserbahan kong stat message nya at offline messages, nahalata ko nang me paparating nanaman na kasinungalingan. Siyempre, sabayan natin ng bago niyang kinahumalingang pelikulang Koreano. Ayun, nabuo nanaman ang isang maramdaming kwento. Ayoko nang makinig sana, pero siyempre intriga na rin ako sa kahihinatnan ngayon. At iyon nga, baseng-base sa pelikula pero siyempre me reality twist. This time, talagang nalabuan ako lalo na’t me kinalaman sa bata at one night stand ang kwento. Naku po. Siya? Ah basta.

Sa pakiwari ko ganun nga yon. Isa nanamang ala-panaginip na naging realidad. Sawa na nga ako. Makikinig pa ba ako? Hindi na ko naninibago. Matagal na yan e. Sige na nga. Mapagbigyan na lang siya. Nakakaawa naman. Sana, pag tanda pa niya e maisip niyang walang patutunguhan ang lahat ng iyon. At para sakin, di ko na paniniwalaan ang kahit ano pa mang halata namang peke. Anyway, sa huli, siya naman ang talo dahil nagsayang lang siya ng effort sa kung ano mang kwentong di ko naman binili. Hay bahala na nga siya. Ayoko nalang magsalita sa kanya. Pero nakakainis din talaga e. Sobra na…

Windows Live Messenger

Hello screencap!

Okay, so this is the Windows Live Messenger, and I’m going to introduce this to those who do not know it yet. :)

The screen cap cannot be enlarged because of blog layout so sorry if it’s small.

Anyway, it has a nice feature of personalization. It has an easy interface and it’s so user-friendly. That’s why I’m switching to this already.

The coolest thing here so far is the “Create your own emoticons” thing. I created Sasuke .gifs to emoticons, and here’s a sample:

If you can notice, there’s a Sasuke-kun there in the text box. :D

I made that. And I can send it to my contact and he can download it and use it for himself. :)

 

That would be all for now. Haha. Bummed. =)

Happy Birthday… Birthday.

Right. Today is his birthday, and it’s pertaining to: boyfriend, YKW, YKH, Honey, Hani, ANPM, Chorva, Garci, Jose, JS, ****** (haha concealed!), and so on… whatever me and my friends call him or me alone. Anyway, that’s too trivial, so let me just dedicate this post to him—since, yea, it’s his birthday. 20th birthday to be exact.

I know this is a bit awkward to post since I haven’t mentioned him regularly on common all-about-life posts yet I’m always with him for the longest time—breaking records on YMs, telephone conversations and of course the grand “Longest stay in our house award” (I grant this to visitors who exceed the records- previous winner was JM, or was it Roy?).

So what about him now?

Hmn. Let me just talk about some things I know about him right now:

1. He studies Japanese Language- scary. I never thought he’d do that. I was always the one interested in that stuff… until now. He’s somewhat the next-level freak that I am when it comes to Japan.

2. He’s 20- no longer a teen, haha. I wonder what else can he do because he’s older. Dang, I wish I am 21 already. *chuckles*

3. He’s into PC games- not that this fact has changed for three years?

4. Recently, he had this “wisdom tooth”- ooh, sounds interesting, but it appears that he’s soo in pain because of that. Yeah right, I even saw it. Haha.

5. He’s an alien- did he just admit that some time ago? He lives in Habitopia—somewhere in another galaxy, in an island called Habilandia (am I right?). Sure thing, that’s make-believe.

6. He is weirder than me- that’s in some special cases. These include: food choices and mixes and other stuff.

7. He’s watching Discovery Channel and National Geographic- that’s most of the time, since he takes the remote control from me and switches to that when I should be watching Rukawa on Slam Dunk! (gah!)

8. He imposes- there have been lots of his requests or should I say rules about some things. Hmn, I won’t mention them.

9. …and so on.

(Actually, I’m planning to make these 20, but I couldn’t remember a lot today. :D)

Haha, great. Just great. ;)

Confessions of a gg-holic

While it may be true that my interest for Western dramas and guys is quite questionable, this time, it’s true. I’m interested in The CW’s teen drama series Gossip Girl, based on the book with the same title.

I don’t know if it’s really my College classmates and friends or C-chan (now called “C”) or myself that really got me into reading and watching it at the same time. It was just like one summer ago that I heard some UP people’s addiction to it. I often even wondered what got them into watching it. Oh well, so much for that.

Right now, I avidly download every single episode of its Season 2, and admittedly, it got me hooked. It was such an intriguing series, although so much difference could be noted when it comes to the book itself. Anyway, I think it’s better in the series since it’s more lighter and the fact that watching is so much easier than reading. Besides, you get to see their on-screen equivalents pretty and that.

I wonder whether I’ll drop this enthusiasm for gg someday. Who actually knows that?

Dramatic

I really have no intention of creating a post today with this title. I just loved the song Dramatic by Yuki. To begin this post, I would like to say that I don’t really mind now how many of my posts will be posted. Whatever.

There are approximately 7 days and something hours before my downloads will be complete. Unfortunately, I’m leaving the house tomorrow for the whole aka entire day. How then could I finish this download and start the next one?

I don’t care about My Girl Pinoy Version since I have a LQ copy of it. What matters is SMM, since I haven’t watched its first eps and also it’s got an international franchise. It’s quite a worthwhile download.

So then, I better stop wasting bandwidth on something else.

Shall I quit YM and Windows Messenger? I don’t know.

I don’t know has been my overused favorite phrase.

Thinking

Can’t seem to place another good title for this post. I’ve been writing nonstop today here (well, there are stops). I have a goal of completing at least 200 posts till the New Year’s but then I didn’t quite make it. Anyway, I might fail on tomorrows 131 exam. I have no idea why I don’t seem to be interested in studying right now. Was I thinking of something else that I want to do so it hindered my studying mode? Or did I really lack the motivation to pursue my studies?

Honestly up to now I don’t know yet if I wanted Public Administration as my final course in life. I always wanted to pursue a writing career or something in the broadcast communication, or maybe the best I could think that I madly like is about computers. But unfortunately for me I wasn’t accepted because of the sad marks and red ones I had in my first two years. It’s my entire fault anyway.

I know that I want to be someone proficient in the Japanese language because of my anime fanaticism. I became an otaku at an early age, and from the time I wanted to sing anime songs all day and the time that I wanna read and understand its lyrics, I have built the interest within me.

Too bad I can’t pursue some studies of it since it doesn’t seem important to my incoming career as a public servant of the Philippine people. Haha.

Some Screen Caps

While it’s true that I’ve finished the entire Sakura Taisen video releases in anime, I really still can’t get over the missing links on the Sakura Taisen pairings—especially my favorite and the most obvious one: SakuraXOhgami.

Let me share some of the scenes of their first meeting:
