exxy’s spot

overheard at a coffeeshop in the vicinity of loyola:

(gurl1 and gurl2 are sitting beside each other with individual tables, they seem to be studying for some scientific-sounds-like-physics-something exam…uuhh sa lakas ng boses ni gurl1!?! aba’y nanunuuot sa tenga ko, di ko sinasadya,pramiz!)

girl 1(talking in a very LOUD voice): aba! kung sa ateneo law school ka mag-aaral, dapat me kotse ka noh? nakakahiya naman kung wala kang kotse..tapos lahat ng kaklase mo meron, ikaw lang ang wala…(which is the reason why my ears got caught in the exchange…HUWATTTTT??? eh di nakakahiya ako kung ganun BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA sabi na nga bah eh kapalmuks lang ang dahilan kung bakit ako nagtagal dun…oist! di naman lahat, majority lang…)

girl 2 (who unfortunately does not know any better):  oo nga, lahat siguro ng nag aaral dun mayaman noh? nakakahiya naman kung dun ka mag aaral tapos di ka maporma (at which point i’m almost gagging with suppressed laughter..i honestly don’t see the connection– ARAL = YAMAN = PORMA = HUH!?! who needs good clothes to learn!?! and granting that you do, ever heard of divi*!?! wattabout UK* huh!?! but…wait! it gets funnier!)

gurl1: siguro kung dun ka  mag aaral  tinitingnan lagi ng mga kaklase mo kung ano ang suot  mo…sa la salle siguro ganon..siguro nilalait ka ng mga kaklase mo kung di maganda ang suot mo..dapat laging bago noh para di naman nakakahiya sa mga kaklase mo… (BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA ewan ko sa taga-la salle kase dehins naman ako napupunta sa iskul nila at di ko alam kung bakit napunta dun yung train of thought niya siguro dahil mayayaman ang topic…siguro yung ibang mayayaman ugali mo naman ang tinitingnan…siguro di naman ganun ang mga mayayaman mag isip…siguro kung dun siya mag-aaral wala na siyang paanahon para isipin yung sinusuot ng ibang tao..siguro dapat yung pag aaral ang aatupagin niya dun at hindi kung me kotse at kung ano yung suot ng mga tao…siguro di naman lahat ng tao ganito mag-isip sa kapwa niya ke mahirap o mayaman man..)

gurl2: oo nga, ang hirap noh kung dun ka mag aaral..buti na lang wala akong balak mag-law (BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA yun naman pala…buti na lang iha…good for you. pero marami namang law school iha,kung me balak ka man mag-law..pero mahihirapan ka nga dun (pero di dahil sa wala kang kotse at di ka maporma..me mas"profound" na dahilan iha…) pero tama ka,like, you know, the people there? they are all mayaman you know and all so porma, you are not bagay there you know BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA)

*for my "mayaman" friends who do not know: "divi" is the short term for divisoria where you can buy  slacks for P150 and blouses for  less that  P100, suits for P600/pair; "UK" is my favorite clothes shop a.k.a. ukay-ukay or wagwagan =)

**  **  **  **  **  **  **  **  **  **

it’s a pity i was successful at drowning out gurl1’s voice at the start of their conversation, i’m sure it would have been more hilarious! but i had enough dose of laughter to keep me sunny till now…don’t intend to be rude or mean but duh!?! what’s with the stereotype? there are a number of poor but deserving students (like me! poor-mejo-tagilid-lang-sa-deserving-part-pero-trying) who goes to ateneo law school…in the four years that i mingled with the rich there,i never felt like an outcast for not having a car or not wearing "good-in-the-sense-that-they-are-new-or-maporma clothes" …and i never thought that you have to be rich or dress well to get a good education (nyah! at ba’t ako nag-aastang "atenista" with my english and all hehehe) wala lang, sobrang nakakatawa lang na 1) di ako mayaman at 2)wala akong kotse at 3) di ako maporma at 4) di naman ako nahiya EVER sa pagcocommute o sa mga UK clothes ko at ang clincher 5) sa ateneo law school po ako nag aral..opo,natapos ko naman po ng walang kahihiyan, tenk you.   

siguro mababait lang talaga yung mga naging kaklase ko kaya di ko naramdaman na dapat pumorma para di ako mahiya sa kanila o kaya man siguro makapal lang talaga ang mukha ko kasi  ni minsan di  naman ako nagkunwaring mayaman para wag mahiya…ay, sandali lang kailangan ko lang sabihin: salamat inay,itay sa paggapang niyo po para sa aking edukasyon kahit na tayo ay hindi mayaman binigyan niyo po ako ng pagkakataon. mahal na mahal ko po kayo, di bale makakabawi din po ako sa inyo…balik sa aking blog: kung ganun pala sa ateneo, buti na lang di ako tumingin sa porma ng ibang tao sa loskul kung hindi, sana di ako nakapagtapos sa sobrang kahihiyan (w/my P10 or P5 ukayukay jackets from the streets of gingoog public market or P50-80jackets from the wagwagan of baguio…and my jeep, tryc or lakad transpo to school) BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA tsk,tsk,tsk…ang kabataan nga naman kung mag-isip…di naman lahat ng mayayaman,nanlalait pag di bago suot mo o kung ala ka kotse..

ay, ako lang bah? yaiks! baka naman ako ang sablay? hyuk! hyuk! hyuk! hyuk! mga atenista talaga…kasalanan niyo to,anyaman niyo kase eh…lahat kase kayo me kotse..lahat kayo tumitingin sa suot ng tao…nanlalait pag di bago…nakakahiya tuloy makihalubilo sa inyo…
[ balimbing! =) just in case ako pala ang sablay hehe]

where did that saying "time flies when you’re having a good time" come from?
i dunno.but it certainly is true.

i met an old friend yesterday…we spent a couple of hours just yakking about anything and everything that came up our minds..yeah, we have not seen each other for a long time but there is something about friendship that makes time dissolve when you are together. i mean, okay we had a lot of catching up to do but still, the hours seem only like a couple of seconds.another friend told me once, friendship is not about how often you see each other but it is how you take off from where you left.. in our case, i love the way the lost years seem to have vanished.

haven’t seen this friend for more than three years and wuz kinda scared before she got to our meeting place(another friend was supposed to be with her but she got sick). i mean, for a few minutes i mulled over how to greet her ( kiss or just smile? it’s been so long, how would she take it if i act like we were lost sisters?)..also thought about how to begin to rekindle the friendship that we had (uuuhhh, dunno how to gauge the extent of our closeness before)..will she  feel as  happy as  i am–seeing her again?  and many other silly thoughts came over my mind…

but when my friend arrived it was like we were together just last weekend…i felt no hesitation at all. when i saw her, all the lost years evaporated and i just thought "darn!i miss this gurl!" and we started talking and laughing out loud about the mundane and anything that crossed our minds.i remember how much i love hearing her laughter.it is one distinct gift a friend can give another. and her eyes that laugh with her soul is another thing that i miss about her.i was so happy i did not notice the time until she had to leave to meet her sister..

seeing her again made me feel really lucky (inspite of my karmic disaster at present) because at one point in my life i met such a great person and i thank my stars for this chance to see her again.can’t wait to share more coffee and stories with her…

we had fun but kanna and the kid’s (carla and zen) boracay getaway was definitely an all-in-one budget trip! fun, fear, frustration, laughter, excitement,sadness, tired hapiness…for full details of our misadventure, look up zen’s account of what happened hehehe

but i’d relive it anytime..the thrill that we had is definitely worth the trouble! =)  the kids were the greatest persons one could get stranded with..ultimate project: backpack through europe, let’s go kids!

p.s. my "pen" is from batangas…a.k.a. balisong  he hehehe

nuggets from "the little prince", my all-time favorite read =)

Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome
for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.
***
They are like that. One must not hold it against them. Children should always
show great forbearance toward grown-up people.
But certainly, for us who understand life, figures are
a matter of indifference.
***
To forget a friend is sad. Not everyone has had a friend. And if I forget him,
I may become like the grown-ups who are no longer interested in anything but
figures…
***
It is such a secret place, the land of tears.
***
If you succeed in judging yourself rightly, then you are indeed
a man of true wisdom.
***
Nevertheless, he is the only one of them who does not seem to me ridiculous.
Perhaps that is because he is thinking of something else besides himself.
***
But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique
in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world…
***
"One only understands the things that one tames," said the fox.
"Men have no more time to understand anything."
***
Words are the source of misunderstandings.
***
"But in herself alone she is more important than all the hundreds of you
other roses: because it is she that I have watered; XXXXXXXX; because it is she
that I have listened to, when she grumbled, or boasted, or even sometimes
when she said nothing. Because she is my rose."
***
It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential
is invisible to the eye.
***
"It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so
important."
***
One runs the risk of weeping a little, if one lets himself be tamed…(ouch, my theme exactly!-k)
***
My star will be just one of the stars, for you. And so you will love to watch
the stars in the heavens…They will all be your friends.
***
"In one of those stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be
laughing. And so it will be as if all the stars are laughing, when you look at
the sky at night…You–only you–will have stars that can laugh!"

***

And when your sorrow is comforted (time soothes all
sorrows) you will be content that you have known me.

***

You will always be my friend. You will want to laugh with
me.

***

And you will sometimes open your window, so, for that
pleasure…And your friends will be properly astonished to see you laughing as
you look up the sky! Then you will say to them, “ Yes, the stars always
make me laugh!” And they will think you are crazy.

It will be a shabby trick that I
shall have played on you…”

***

to the little prince,who continues to be my source of wisdom…
to laughing at the stars…and things that make a difference in our lives…
to eternal childhood =)
