operada
August 1, 2004
last wednesday, completely out of the blue, a little pus-like mass of i-don't-know-what suddenly appeared by the side of my neck. within two days it grew redder and enlarged to the size of a very large pimple.
it was not a pretty sight. and o can tell you it feels as uncomfortable as it looks.
so, in as much as i hate coming to the doctor, i had to. no other choice. i had prelims coming up, and the uncontrollable stinging sensation it gives me was beginning to affect my work. (because i couldn't concentrate i got only 7 out of 10 questions in our quiz in EP. damn!) herher. arte shit.
anyway, my mom and i went to Healthway clinic in Rob Ermita, and there the doctor removed the mini-mass. he had to give me anesthesia, and it was wierd because i was more scared of the injection than the actual operation. i couldn't look while he was pushing the needle in my neck, but after that i couldn't feel any pain anymore.
i wanted to see the thing they took out but, given my position, i couldn't. *sigh* it was BLOODY. arghh.
and now i have this big gauze at the side of my neck. huhuhu..

bakit abusado ang mga drayber?
hindi naman lahat.. kaso may iba, talagang malupit eh.
diba, ang fare ng estudyante ay 4.50 lang dapat? pero dahil sa mabait ako at ayoko ng confrontation nagbabayad ako ng 5.50. pero ang malupit nun, minsan pag nagbigay ako ng 6.00, aba hindi na sinusuklian. kalechehan.
pero ang talagang malupit ay yung nasakyan kong FX nung isang araw. tyempo pa naman na badtrip ako dahil hindi kame magkikita ni Coco ng isang gabi at ang init init. ayoko kasi ng mainit pag papasok sa school. bukod sa sumasakit ang ulo ko eh pag dating ko ng classroom ay para akong nagmarathon. kaya nga ako nag-e-FX.
eh nung araw na yun sabay kaming pumasok ni Coco. nagmamadali na siya dahil 2:30 na nun at 1:00 palang dapat nadun na siya, kaya hindi na ako nakapili ng FX na nasa harap ako.
edi sumakay na kame. sa gitnang parte kame ng FX. nampucha! para akong nag-sauna bath. ang init sa FX. edi medyo nababadtrip na ako nun.
nagbayad na si Coco. 20 ang binayad niya dahil sa Pedro Gil naman kami sumakay at sa Adamson lang siya bababa at ako naman sa UST. samakatuwid, nauna siyang bumaba.
edi ayus lang. tahimik nalang ako dun sa gilid. nagsisimangot na ako dahil yung epal na katabi ko eh inagaw yung aircon na nakatapat sakin. matindi siya. nauna naman ako dun sa aircon, nangaagaw siya.
tapos may bumaba sa Morayta. bigla ba namang sinabi nung driver, "ikaw iha san ka bababa?"
"sa UST pa po ako" sabi ko naman.
"kulang ng lima bente lang yung binigay kanina ng kasama mo."
aba edi tuluyan ng nawala ang nalalabi kong pasensya at sinabi ko sa kanya "manong sampu lang ho ang bayad dun, sa Pedro Gil lang kiami sumakay."
natahimik nalang siya.
alam kong gusto lang nilang kumita. pero hindi naman tama yung mangabuso sila ng ganun.
kainis.

ang ligawan

i don't believe in courtship.
i just don't. and it's hard when you have opinions that deviate most of society's conservative, self-imposed values, as most of mine are: i get judged and condemned by everyone else.
i don't believe that a girl's worth lies on her virginity. i don't believe that women are born to serve the needs of men. i don't believe that all women who got pregnant early are flirts and "pakawala". i don't believe in that kabullshitan we know as courtship, or ligaw.
i believe in the natural flow of things, you know, friendship first and no formality and all that. i don't get how some people can believe that when you make a guy suffer all kinds of difficulties while he is courting you, that would guarantee his love and respect. i don't understand what's the point of it.
afterall, when in the "ligaw" phase, both of you are on your best foot. especially with the guy. i just don't see the whole point of being on your best foot if when you finally became boyfriends of girlfriends it would stop.
i've always smirked at guys who asked me "pwede bang mangligaw" while i cook up excuses like "ah, eh.. ayoko pa kasing magkaboyfriend eh." it's just that i want the whole process to be real. no bull. no pambobola. nothing whatsover.
i've always been very firm in this belief. that is, until a few weeks earlier, while my boyfriend and i were teasing each othe rabout our past relationships, when it suddenly came into my mind to ask my him "eh beh bakit si Graziell love mo, kahit hindi ka niya love?" and he told me "eh beh, bago ko napasagot yun, ang dami kong pinaghirapan.." and i just kept quiet because i suddenly felt like an idiot.
oh well. i guess i should explain. Graziell is the only serious relationship he had before me. his first "great love". *sigh* i think it may be my fate to always come after my boyfreind's "great love". when i was with Brian (1), it was Gemma. when i was with Joyber, it was Donna. when i was with Mark, it was Sheree. with Bryan (2), it was April. and now it's Graziell.
but unlike in my previous relationships, i've never felt even the teensiest bit of insecurity with Coco. how could i, when he's always there for me, proving each and everyday that he's better that all my ex's put together.
and yeah.. that's when i realized that why the hell should i care if he never formally courted me?
when from the very first day he became my boyfriend until this very moment, he has been courting me..
Currently feeling: *sigh*

kasi mas madaling magkwento!
* i have regretfully neglected my blog for this past week because i got hospitalized last sunday
* i really dont understand why, i was too groggy to eavesdrop on my doctor's and my mom's conversation
* but it was probably because i saw a halimau
* harhar
*but i don't wanna talk about it anymore coz i spent too much time in that freak place without me dwelling on it here too
* oh, and someone put a nasty, attention-seeking comment in my tagboard
* and i just bet it was one of them halimaus
* double ha.
* i'm getting tired of my layout
* and i can't wait to change it
* hospital food tastes like.. nothing. no taste at all.
* i missed everyone in tabulas!
hay, talaga nga naman. may mga taong kulang sa pansin.
Currently feeling: loads better

| I am the Natural Childhood is the golden paradise we are always consciously or unconsciously trying to re-create. The Natural embodies the longed-for qualities of childhood - spontaneity, sincerity, unpretentiousness. In the presence of Naturals, we feel at ease, caught up in their playful spirit, transported back to that golden age. Adopt the pose of the Natural to neutralize people's defensiveness and infect them with helpless delight. Symbol: The Lamb. So soft and endearing. At two days old the lamb can gambol gracefully; within a week it is playing "Follow the Leader." Its weakness is part of its charm. The Lamb is pure innocence, so innocent we want to possess it, even devour it. |

finally, after weeks of constant begging and cajoling my friend B.A. has lent me his copy of Dan Brown's Da Vinci code. it was great, very well researched and very thought provoking. a hundred pages into the book and i was already filled with a burning desire to study cryptology and symbolism too.
and now i know why everyone is so fascinated about the mona lisa. i'm fascinated now too. herher.

The Philippines is an archipelago with over 7,000 islands located about 805 km off the southeast coast of Asia. The Philippines has several wonderful vacation spots: Boracay, Baguio, Palawan, and lots of other
paradise-like haunts. Join us as we take you to the wonders of
Paradise Philippines.
The Philippine flag was first conceptualized by Emilio Aguinaldo. The first flag was sewn in Hong Kong by Marcela de Agoncillo, her daughter Lorenza, and Dona Delfina Herbosa de Natividad, a niece of Jose Rizal, the Philippines' national hero. The flag is displayed with the blue field on top in times of peace, and with the red field on top in times of war. (Source: Wikipedia)
