After reading Facebook statuses of some of my Senior friends about their graduation and college entrance tests, I felt nostalgic.

I remembered how we first met, they were 6th graders, we were 5th. We were brought together by a single passion. The passion for the pen.

At first I felt odd being with them. I mean, who are these people? What do they like and hate?

But after really great shared experiences, I got to know them, get close to them and LOVE them. They are my support group and "unsupport" group(they know the limitations of how good or bad your actions can be). When I am with them, I am at ease. When I am with them, I experience genuine happiness which cannot be derived from any other group of people I know. When I am with them, I can tell/say anything. They tell me whether something is so hideous about you, minus the hurt.
It's almost being in Utopia. A safe yet ever so filled with a happiness that can never be more true.

They deserved a whole blog about them.



Lemme introduce these guys;

(Nagtagalog na ako sa latter part, haha. para mas sincere)

Jayvee-Oh, my first partner in crime. We were both News Writers, I'm, for English and he's for Filipino. Oh hell, how am I to describe him? Well, he's the best singer and lip synch-er. I wish I had your voice. And let's not forget his really dynamic personality. (eww, I used dynamic. haha naalala ko tuloy pag dinedescribe mga key note speakers. laging the dynamic Mr. ganto)
Halos lahat ata ng bagay kaya niyang dalhin sa tawa. Yung tipong naiyak na lahat tapos eeksena yan kasi siya lang hindi maiyak. Tapos mangungulit pa. Hahaha. pero maiiyak din ng konti.
Sobrang kulit niyan na tinatapatan ko din ng kakulitan. Isa yan sa mga taong malakas makapansin ng "ssss" ko. Kaya ang sarap tuunan ng collar bone nyan para mamilipit eh. Haha. Niloloko pa nga ako gawa ng favorite part ko sa kantang She Will Be Loved yung "It's not always rainbows and butterflies, it's compromise, it moves us along". Haha. yeah, full of s's.

Martin-the male version of Winnie Cordero. Alam niyan lahat ng presyo, kung saan mahal, kung saan mura, kung anong brand ang mas maganda at dapat gamitin. Kaya naman idol ko yan eh. sobrang ART-y pati niyan. He pays so much attention to detail and he's probably one of the best leaders I've met. Basta kaklase si Martin, more of less, winning section yan. Ang galing kasi talaga. Hindi ko nga alam kung pano niya yun nagagawa, basta nagagawa na lang niya. Ang galing din nitong magpatawa. Comic din. Ang daming alam na istorya. Ang dami ding naiimbento. KUYA ko toh si Martin, tatay namin si Sir D. :)

Jannah-ito dati tahimik lang toh. Pademure. Pero simula nang mainlove, simula ng nagkaroon ng manliligaw at nalilink sa kanya, nagiging dynamic na rin siya. Haha. My most recent tease about her involves the name of her mom. Pero one thing i love about Jannah is that she seems to have one of the longest patience ever. Kahit sobrang gulo na ng buhok niyan dahil samin, kahit hindi na yan makapagconcentrate dahil sa sobrang kakulitan ko, kahit maiihi na yan kakakiliti ko, hindi pa rin yan magagalit. awan ko nga ba kung anong nandito at napakatibay niya. At salamat nga pala sa kanyang mga pamanang notebook sakin na sobrang useful.

Charise-nako, magmamadre daw tong babaeng to na kamukha ng isang halaman sa Plants Vs. Zombies. Itong si Chai, masarap din pagtripan. Actually, mas favorite ko tong pagtripan kasi sobrang mamamatay ako sa katatawa sa ganda ng mga reaction niya. Hindi ko makakalimutan nang minsang tinaas ko ang kanyang palda habang kami ay nasa bahay nina Yssa.

Hannah-Embrace! Nako, mahilig magpalibre toh. haha. Dati nung elementary pa kami, lagi ko tong kausap tungkol sa love. Katabi ko nga to nung RSPC2005-2006 eh. First timers pa kami non. Ang dami ng pinagdaanan ng babaing ito sa pagibig. Ang sarap na lang tawanan. Hahahaha.

Janine-My cuzin. Nako, ito, hindi magpapatalo sa asaran. Madalas nga ako pa ang natatalo dito. Haha. At minsan pa nga ay nagkakagalos ako dahil sa walangyang haba ng kuko nito. Haha. Si cuzin, kahit ano pede ko ishare dito. Tutulong ito at magbibigay ng advice hanggat kaya niya. Lalu na syempre dati kung tungkol sa mga malalanding ex's. Hindi ko makakalimutan nung tinulungan nila ako sa nakaaway ko nung Grade 6. Just goes to show how true you are. You're more than a cuzin. You're like my sister. And I will surely miss having a sister like you.

Yssa-Oh how am I going to describe the Goddess of Almost Everything? Ask her anything and you have more or less, an accurate answer. From great debates, to essays, to Hollywood stuff and the latest fashion trends. i cannot think of anything that she is not good at. She's also one of the eye witnesses to my now dead vanity.
She is the girl who has the say for anything that you can cite.

and oh,

KC-Even if I only got to spend little time with you, based on everything I observed, you are a really awesome person. Your photos, man, they're the envy of any photojournalist from Time Magazine. Your sense of style-it looks effortless but still chic. BTW, if you will have the chance to read this, haha, I'll tell you a secret. When I didn't know that much about you and only heard stories from common friends, I was so fascinated that I stalked your multiply account and read all the blogs that I can read. You rock dude!




So, if you guys would have a chance to read this, I would like to say that I love all of you guys. You'll always occupy tons of space in my heart. Thank you for the great experiences that I will cherish forever. i hope you guys keep in touch. And I wish you all good luck in your venture for greener pastures.

I wish you all the best and i hope that God may always bless you.

Your friend whom you touched deeply,
Aldrin

"He was always there for her but she always belonged to someone else."
A really striking phrase for a masochist. In this case, me. Yeah, me. The loser, always the underdog, always not good enough.
For months, I had been thinking about you. Thinking too much about you. Too much that it hurts.
But that doesn't really matter since we always have time for each other. Time, only time, because you heart belongs to someone else.
But what the heck, I'm not bitter. I won't interfere with whatever relationship you guys have. All I want is the right to express it. I just wanna scream, shout mu lungs out, saying I love you.

(forget the emotional nature of my blogs. you chose to read them so forgive the cheeziness)

Yesterday, it was raining cats and dogs but still, I went out, alone. Well, I'm not crazy I'm just a little unwell. Haha. And it felt good, leaving the heat of the house, craving for it when I was already out. It's like sometimes, we get too tired of something and just for a twist, we go away from it. And after its absence, we'll realize how it matters. Okay, parang kumabaga cool off.
And fyi, I went out alone. I fear being alone but I always face it. I don't know why.
Anyways, I'm blogging about nonsense so if you found time to click the link to this blog, well then, don't blame me for wasting your time. Lmao.

I should be happy right now. I made it despite my doubts. But still, in a bowl of mixed sweets and bitterness, the latter's taste would always be the more powerful one. To set things straight, I am sad. Jinno and Co. deserved better. But what can I do right? Nothing. Nothing but to give empathy. And I hate that. I hate that limit. I want to do something but I couldn't change the course of things. Well.

Congratulations The Heartbeat. :) I love you guys! We all did great.

I just realized something. I just realized that THE TRUTH may not always set you free. Sometimes, it builds more fences that bounds you from other people. Some secrets are better kept as. . well, secrets.

The truth is not always innocent and not always for the good of all. The truth is a destroyer of relationships. I don't know about you but that's what's on my mind right now.

Oh my, am I down or what? I just finished munching on a hundred grams of Toblerone. Awe, too bad its chocolate-y goodness it still not enough to cheer me up. I just feel like I'm always not good enough. I feel like I'm always the underdog.

I am in a really bad point where I doubt myself and everything I do. I am too conscious if what I am doing is right or wrong which makes it hard for me to just go for it. It's so hard for me to make the right decisions. Simple things could easily break me.

Darn. Tomorrow is judgment day and I am extremely anxious. I'm not sure if I could still pursue this. :(

I hate the fact that I can't stop loving you, even if I try my best to ignore these feelings.

I hate the fact that everytime we talk, he comprises most parts of our conversations.

I hate the fact that I tease you to him even if it kills me inside.

I hate you because I can't stop loving you.

 

 

Kasi naman, may nagpagawa sakin ng paper tungkol sa governance etc. Ayun. Haha. Dahil mabait akong kapatid, kinarir ko.

 

I can say that the Philippines has stable governance and politicians with good morals. I can say that but then, I would be lying. We do not need a reality check to realize this. We could not deny the fact that many of the people in the political seat are either corrupt or unjust. Politics is always dirty but compared to other countries, we may have one of the dirtiest.

The politics in a country reflects its citizens-its morals and ways of thinking. You could only imagine how bad others may think of us base on it. Corruption and injustices starts with temptations. Nowadays, bribery is at its peak of popularity and money has is the key to overpowering the law. It’s the easy way out and Filipinos choose the immoral shortcut rather than the righteous detour. Justice is for sale in a price that is unreachable for the poor.

But like every situation, it has its cause and effects. I often ask myself what made us reach this despicable status. But the better question is how we could clean this mess that we call “Government” and maintain its cleanliness. How?

Good governance starts with good morals. Actions make character. If one wants to run for a certain position, he must check himself. He should make sure that he deserves that position, has the right principles for it and has the determination to fight for that principle. He should be ready to stand up, speak out and fight when faced with anomalies. He must be a leader that people will respect and idolize. He must be strong with burning passion to serve without wanting to get back. And most importantly, one who loves his people for love will give them the burning passion to protect their rights and priviledges.

Of course, governance is not only dependent on the people who are running, but also on the mass, the voters. Your choice, your government. The people in the seat will not be there if not for the voters so therefore, the voters should choose wisely. They must elect the deserving one who could not only lends them their ears to issues affecting the society but also to act, to move in accordance to the problems. We need people who we could trust, who would use power to make changes for the better and who would not be blinded by the shimmering of money in their eyes.

It is not too late for the Philippines. We could still be the people who shook the world with two People Powers. We could still be the people who made a change without bloodshed. We could, if we believe and act based on that belief. Our country has faced a lot of giants and is now under another one. The past generations overcame this and now it is up to us.

We are what we make of ourselves. The balance of the weighing scale is dependent on our decisions. Do we decide to stick to the present system or do we make ourselves patriots of this country? Now, make your choice.

 

I am in a really bad condition right now. Bad mental condition. I need a therapist but since I do not dream of having to badly need one, I shall blog again. To release it all.

These thoughts might quite be random but they have a central idea. Okay.

WARNING, If you don't care, press Alt+F4 right now. Lol

Here it goes:

 

Other people see you better than how you see yourself in a mirror.

If a dog that terribly barks decides that he doesn't want to bark anymore, people won't believe him because he has been known for that and people would judge that he would fail. Same goes for people who'd wanna make a change.

I am the pathetic loser. I am the superficial airhead. I am. I really am.

Right now, I feel like I'm in a movie set with two people at the top of my head whispering. One's a demon and one's an angel. I am trying my hardest to listen to the angel. The devil has had too much of support from me already.

When asked how I see myself, I answered: I am a messed up person trying to cover myself up with more messed up things.

Iniiwasan ko ng magisip ng mga palusot ko sa sarili ko.. Kasi saan ako pupulutin kung ang lahat ng binabato sakin ay iniilagan ko?This time, kelangan ko ng mabato. I need to wake up. I need to see the damage done and try to fix it.

 

I knwo no one would believe me if I told them that I wanted to be better. It's okay. I'm used to it.

Aldrin.

 

It is true. It’s true that I created a fracas, an enigma of such kind that cannot be put to words. It’s true I had been ruining lives. It’s true that I had been making things more difficult for others. It’s true. It’s all true. I’m eating myself alive. You’re right, more people would benefit if I’d just leave.

All these happened right before my eyes.

They are all true. They all happened. I was too insensitive and busy with inflicting pain that I have ignored this. I am becoming a monster. My own monster.

And now, I have come to a realization. Upon hearing the aforementioned things, I was tempted to defend myself again. I stumbled at that. But, I tried my hardest to control even if my ears were literally going to release smoke. I tried to control myself. To listen. What would happen to me if I would continually do what I do best?(being evil) I am wrong. I should listen, I should’ve listened. They are better people than me. They know better. I was too knocked up defending my side. My side, which isn’t the right one. I feel like an awful person right now, only because I am really awful. And the title of this post is the best metaphor for what I am feeling. I am hurting because what he said is right.

 

 

And you, Mr., thank you for telling me these. I respect you and though I may not sure what your purpose was to tell me, it doesn’t matter anyway. You have helped me be enlightened. I think you have done your purpose. Goodbye.

 

Aldrin.

You dig deeper and deeper. Before you know it, you're falling into your own pit of doom. You search and search only to get more lost than before you started. You climb and climb until you reach near the top, only to see yourself falling down again. You swim into the deep blue only to get drowned and lose breath. You search for the light, you gave your deepest efforts, only to find out that that light would never be yours to find. Everything is deceiving. Once you get a clear understanding of it all, next thing you know, those things have changed.

(unconsciously blogging)

Adlrin/"Adong"

I am possessed today. Possessed and consumed by evilness. I don't know. There's just so much negativity again and I tend to overthink stuff, put deeper meanings to shallow occurences. I know my problem, I had been judging myself. The only person who should be exclusive from my judgment is myself. But no, I do not stop. I cannot. I know my problem, I am aware. But what I am not aware of is its solution. How am I gonna stop being preoccupied with my own issues and blame it on others? How? Tell me. Pls.

end.

I really do not know how to start this off, which is synonymous when Jess and I were making the script of the Talent Exposition. I think beginnings are always rough but in the end, it makes way for success. We got the third place. But according to people who saw the sheet of the judges, we could've been first if we didn't go over time for 3 minutes. But, that doesn't matter. We know we did great compared to our scenario a week ago. We were losing hope, we even thought of quitting. Thanks to Ate Lea, she kept us together and never gave up. And also thanks to all the Talent Expo participants, you people are so cool and I'll miss hanging around with you.

end.

Wow. It's been the longest time since I haven't blogged here in multiply. I don't know why. There are lots of events that are worthy of a blog post but I refuse to post them. I just got really hooked up with facebook. Oh well.

So, to update. What shall I type? By the way, I'm still awake because I cannot sleep and I've tried everything. I'm ditching the morning class since we aren't doing anything and we're gonna have approximately 7 hours of practice from 1pm-8pm for the Talent Exposition. I actually am very excited since I can see our script come to life. It's the first time for our batch to be independent in these stuff but we still need an authority figure to help us out. Just a week before, we couldn't finish anything. We were considering the action of quitting. But luckily, we are getting somewhere now.

Hmm. And about my lovelife, two words: sudden decisions. Aldrin wouldn't be Aldrin if it weren't for his consistency in being inconsistent. I just thought that I was in love with my classmate but then, suddenly, after having an instant messaging session with a summer fling(I guess), I realized that she still loved me. And I also felt the love for her. Things just didn't work out for the two of us since we were caught off guard and situations got out of hand the last time. And so, I decided to ask her if she would still consider a second chance. And she said YES. And my heart is satisfied.

 

And some of you might ask, what happened after the event in my last blog, about our vehicle. Well, the Everest has been fixed, thank goodness. And I have realized that I am the one who's tormenting myself, thinking that I am always deprived of my needs. Whereas, I am the one who;s depriving them of the equality. They work hard and we relentlessly spend our money. Oh well, so much for that.

 

Lately, I had been noticing a lot of changes from people. Some of which are too easy to ignore while some affect me in different ways. I just don't like seeing people change. But, what the heck, I'll get over it. Maybe I have changed too, I just don't notice it. As they say, we are now in a transitional period, a constant search for who we are and what we're worth.

 

About my studies, I am extremely negative. I have low quizzes and haven't participated that much in the discussions except for Geometry. By the way, Geometry and Trigonometry are my two new favorite subjects-which is really unexpected since I though I was gonna have lots of truoble with me. Or maybe, I will have trouble with 'em, maybe not just now.

 

And for the last topic, here's a random thought. I had been really hooked up to the song, Wind of Change by the Scorpions. I heard it from a radio while on a jeepney. I just love it.

 

Just ran out of things to say,

Bye for now.

-Aldrin

it was crazy. It was wild. It was outrageous. Okay. Today, I did one of the craziest things that I have done in my life. Magtatagalog ako para mas madaling iexplain. Kasi ganito, since wala akong magawa, inakit ko friends ko na dadaanan ko sila sa sasakyan, magdadrive ako. Eh ayun, gagamitin pala ni Pa yung revo kaya di ako pinayagan. Eh ang wild ng isipan ko nun. Naisip kong itakas yung Everest sa bahay. Ayun. Una, ang bigat ng garahe. Pero nakaya ko. Tapos nung dinadrive ko na, napasabit sa gilid ng garahe. Nagkagasgas. PATAY AKO. Pero tinuloy ko parin, nandun na'ko eh anu pang magagawa ko kundi iGO ko na. Haha. Ayun, sinundo ko si Ian at Nelson. Dumaan kami kina Jemih at pumunta kami kina Ivy. Ay dumaan din pala muna kami kina Lyka gawa ni Ian. Tas ayun, edi padrive-drive ako. Tapos papunta na kami sa bahay eh dun kami dumaan sa may Mt. Carmel. Tapos since nasa Zaballero na naman kami ay naisipan kong ipakita sa kanila yung house ni Shali. Ayun, which was a bad idea kasi sumabit nanaman yung Everest dun sa may semento. Ayun. Haha. Buti na lang mababait ang mga tao dun at tinulungan kami. Tapos nakauwi na, tapos ginarahe ko yung Everest at nagtanggal ako ng ebidensya pero wala din kasi nahalata din naman pagkatapos. Ayun. Nagmovietrip kaming apat. Then natapos ang oras, umuwi na sila at naghanda na ako sa sermon.

Since alam ko na I deserve the semon kasi masama naman talaga yung ginawa ko, nanahimik na lang ako, nagpaawa at nagsorry. Haha.

Ito mga sinabe sakin kanina:

Ah ah nagtatrabaho kami para sa inyo tapos yan ang isusukli ninyo?

Kasi ikaw, masyado kang tahimik. (oo tamihik ako sa bahay) kaya hindi namin alam kung anu ang gusto mo.

Bakit mo ginawa yun? May pera ka ba? May pangpaayos ka ba?

Kung magaan lang ang kamay ko eh nabugbod na sana kita. (Hay nako, kung alam mo lang gusto ko bugbugin mo ako. yung tipong mababagok ang ulo ko at magiging gulay na lang ako)

----

Ako lang talaga ay naiinis kasi ang mga magulang kung makapagsermon ay akala mo ba mga santo na hindi nagkakamali. Ano ba, hindi ba sila dumaan sa kabataan at nagkaron din ng mga kalokohan? Sabi nga nila sakin, "magiging magulang ka din". Pero pag naging magulang naman ako siguro ay mas mamahalin ko ang anak ko. Hindi kasi ako close sa kanila. Sa bahay, patahi-tahimik lang ako sa kanila. Para ngang wala pa akong nasheshare sa mga magulang ko na iba kong problema eh. Hindi ko talaga maopen ang sarili ko sa kanila. Hindi ko alam kung paano.

----

Ang galing mo Ivy. Kasi tinext ko siya sabi ko "kasi naman mga magulang ko binuo-buo pa ako kaya tuloy namomroblema sila ngayon". Tas ang nakakaWOW niyang reply ay "Ui ano ka ba? Ang dami mong dapat ipagpasalamat kasi nabuhay ka. Kami din masaya kasi may Aldrin kami. Siguro hindi mo lang maramdaman ang kahalagahan mo sa ngayon kasi walang nagpaparamdam sayo.

 

Grabe IVY, ang galing mo. You really cheered me up. Sobrang nainspire ako sa sinabi mo. But I still think that I am worthless. Kumbaga, panambak lang sa mundong ito. Ganun pakiramdam ko eh.

 

depressed and has no knowledge of where to go from here,

Aldrin.

You're different.

While many girls run and scream for their crushes, you are sitting in a corner being discreet.

You're different. While many girls worry about maintaining a high loevel of vanity, you don't. And that makes you shine.

You're different. While many girls fuss to be all-matured and avoid being childish, you don't. You are simply you.

You're different. While many others do not follow their parents, you do, with tremendous effort.

You're different. And that makes you shine. That makes you special. That makes you special to me.

 

if only I didn't hate awkwards moments, I could've told you. I'll keep on discreetly loving you. And that's all I could ever ask for. i am contented. Contented with the time that we spend together as close friends. I won't ask for anything from you. i won't ask you to love me back. I won't even tell you that I'm in love. I just want to be with you for as long as God will allow.

Aldrin

I feel damned. I feel that I don't deserve what is going on with my life at present. I feel that God doesn't love me. God doesn't listen to me. I just want to suddenly disappear without a trace, like a bubble. My life has hit a dead end and it looks like I wouldn't/couldn't surpass it. I am in rock-bottom. I am tired of thinking positive-it only brings irony to the real thing. I do not want to continue living.

 

 

 I AM READY TO GO TO HELL. .

 

 

I had been noticing my classmate messing with my other classmates because of jealousy. Yeah, jealousy. He is exerting a lot of effort just to maybe, take down these two prominent girls in the class. I am pretty much involved in this issue since the three of them are my friends. Well, I know the boy and I know that he doesn't like people who are better than him. I think he hated me too but when he realized he couldn't be better than me anyway, he stopped. Kidding. :) And of course, the two girls reacted violently with his actions. They often made "parinig" ( I don't know the English term of that). Who wouldn't? SABOTAGE. He was doing sabotage. And he was being unfair and he was not practicing what he preachers.

But in these situations, I am neutral. I understand both sides but I couldn't say that they are right.

First, I know the burning jealousy within him. We really couldn't avoid jealousy/insecurity. It's natural and it's hard to avoid. It's a strong emotion that makes us do a lot of crazy and wrong things. But that doesn't mean that jealousy/insecurity could be used as an excuse.

 

Sabotage is not the answer. Improvement is. I've read that success was the best revenge. And I know that it is true.

 

Second, again, practice what you preach. How could a kid follow his parents about not smoking when they, themselves, are heavy smokers?

Third, when you know people are jealous of you, just let them be. Feel proud. Feel proud that you have achieved a level of supremity to deserve jealousy. Just make sure that you are worth being jealous of. Jealousy is somewhat related to admiration.

Well, maybe, jealousy is admiration expressed in the wrong way.

Lastly, mga PEACERS tayo. Haha. I know that this issue hasn't been relieved even after Ma'am Parafina talked to the three. But, time will come. These people would come to their senses. I hope it would be soon.

 

And I'll finish this blog post with my little realization:

 

Hate is like a plant. At first, you are eager to take care of it and make it grow. It might bear fruits and worsen situations. But in time, this eagerness will subside, and hate, just like a plant will just wither.

 

 

Time is one great medicine.

 

Inspired,

Aldrin.
