Dyahe

"Dyahe" in Filipino means something that makes a person uncomfortable to reveal.

This word would be apt for this entry.

Right now, I have something that I wanted to share but felt uneasy to do so. I wanted to tell this to my friends, but I'm still itching to write it. What I'm going to disclose in this article was probable appropriate for teenagers. But for people in my age, I don't know.

For the past few weeeks, I caught myself attracted to this guy. The last time I saw him, I told myself, "He looks nice." I secretly glance at him from afar because I don't want to be mistaken as a "psycho" or "stalker".
I've had awkward moments with him and sometimes I wish that he would forget me soon.I've had bad experiences with those guys that I used to like. And this time, I wish that it won't happen again.

What makes me "dyahe" to reveal this is because he's ten years older than me. Feeling
ko nakak-karma ako. Before, I use to make "okray" about guys who were a decade older than me. I kept on telling my friends,"Ayoko yan, atat na yan magpa-kasal".
Shucks! I never thought that I would get attracted to this guy. How I wish that my emotions would change quickly, or sana na lang wala akong pakiramdam.
I admit, I want to get close to him or have the chance to work with him because I want to know this guy without romance. I find it easier to get close to a guy if I'm not attracted.

At this point, I wanted to talk to him. But I can't. "Dyahe" kasi if I'm going to make the first move. The best thing that I could do is blog about him. Mabuti na lang at hindi niya ako masyadong kilala. I'm sure that he won't read this.

About jerks

Indeed, things happen for a reason, probably to make us more mature.

I've had an awkward teenage life. I was the one who got teased a lot for being a wall flower. If my other classmates, would waive for popularity. I, on the other hand would not get bothered. You could see me in the corner, reading a book. That's how geeky I was back then. I was not a big joiner, so my social skills were limited.
Most of the guys, picked me up.(even those that I liked). I know the drill. First, they become friendly or pretended that they were attracted to you. When you got caught in their bait, they will drop you like a hot potato. They will make you feel stupid.
I've had countless experience on this and it took me a long time to figure out how I'm going to protect myself from them.

Last week, I had the chance to prove myself that I would not get trapped with them.
There was this guy. He was attractive, but not actually my type. He was a talent of a major network and making a name for himself. A struggling artist thing, so to speak. From the start, I know that he would not notice me. Apparently, I was wrong.
I was surprised when he texted me. Our conversation was one question, one answer. I was even more surprised when he asked me If I drink. It was awkward for me because we were not that close that he would text me like that. Sure, it was casual for him, but not for me. I told him the truth that I seldom drink because I'm allergic to alcohol. The good thing is that he was cool about it.

After responding to his question, I felt relieved. For the first time, I didn't pretend. I went straight to the point and it was not offensive on his part. Then, I realized that I was no longer alluded to their charms. I can easily sense if a guy is after something from me. Well, too bad for them because, I beg to differ. I'm conservative but not naive. For once, I proved to them that I was not gullible as I used to be.One thing I've learned is that most men are stupid and they want the obvious. I feel sorry for these guys.

I'm sure there were still good guys out there, but I'm afraid that they were rare.

My Cebu Experience

I've attended ICON last Friday at Mandaue, Cebu and it was truly a memorable experience.

It was my first time to step go to that city, so everything was an Adventure. I can say that all of the travels that I've done, this was, so far, the most enjoyable one.

Pictures would be posted soon.

Gossip Girl

I hope that this girl would get a life.

Ten years ago, she has victimized other students by spreading nasty rumors about them. She seemed to be domineering those days. One of the b*****est thing that she could do is to turn your friend against you, or worse, the guy that you like. Yes,she could pull some strings to get what she wanted. I admit, these things happened to me. Needless to say, I was one of her victims.

In this entry, I will not reveal her name or post her real picture because I know that it won't do any good. Or worse, it could be taken against me. Just because she did something to me, that doesn't mean that i'll do the same. Who wants her photo posted in public and become a subject of ridicule? No one, right?

I just wanted to express my thought about her and other gossip mongering people. I know that I need to understand why they behave the way they do. Probably, they yearn to get noticed or they were bored with their lame lives. Whatever the reason is, I won't let them victimize me again. It's not healthy. Really.

I have to let 'you' go

I just wanted to move on from my past

Why I love Ugly Betty

I've been an avid fan of this sitcom since it started..Well, let the video clip speak 4 itself.

As I carry my cross...

Before, I'm always looking forward to Christmas. But now, I don't because it's just another ordinary day.

It was 2005, I'm a graduating student back then when I found out that my parents are going to separate. I thought I could handle it well, but I can't. As schoolwork piled up, so was my emotions. At first, my thesismates were compassionate and supportive. But just like other human beings, they grew tired of me. I only have myself to count on. Sometimes, I just like to quit. But, God always picked me up during my depressing moments. I consider it a miracle to graduate from college because, my grades were slipping down, and there was even a time when I walked out of the classroom for no apparent reason. One of my professors even told me that my performance was getting worse. Everyday was a struggle. Graduation came, my whole family was with me, but Dad became distant to us. I tried to embrace him, but he resisted. I don't even know why.

That was the time I began to despise christmas. Before, we used to gather for dinner, but now Dad (while he was still in the country) would play cards with his "kumpares", Mom would clean the house, my brothers don't give a damn. I, on the other hand would lock myself inside my room and read a book. I envy those people who have their family together. Sana ako rin.
I felt detached from my family. I maybe blessed with material things and other stuffs that I need. But,they don't even know what I really ask from them. Call me dramatic but, that's how I really feel inside-broken.

Despite of my brokeness, I still hold on to my personal relationship with God.

Dadating din ang araw mo

Just when I thought that I've recovered from the past, a certain encounter would prove me that I'm wrong.

I thought that I've gotten over it, I mean the incident took place two years ago. But when we crossed paths again, I cringed. I suddenly remember how I felt that day when he humiliated me in front of a crowd.

I know that I should not make the first move, but I 'm just being friendly.

As soon as I began to approach him, I tried to strike a conversation. Being disinterested or annoyed by my presence, he flashed his phone in front of my face and texted. A few minutes later, he left me and said "Ghel, iwan muna kita ha, may nakalimutan kasi ako sa bahay eh." I just nodded. Those people at the back, shot me with dagger looks because, pina-singit lang ako dun.

At that moment, I felt that I was a JOKE, a big one. Because I allowed myself to be victimized by a jerk. That's the time when I began to experience the fear of getting emotionally attached with someone. I hate the feeling of being played with someone. I've had similar experiences, but this one hit me big time. Before, I tried to forgave that person and move on. But, this time, I'm really tired.

Sometimes, i just wanted to say things in front of his face. Gusto ko siyang murahin. But I really can't because it's been a long time. He might have forgotten about it already. Besides, most guys are insensitive and he's not an exemption. The best thing that I can do is that I can blog about and let other people know how horrible he was.

Honestly speaking, I find it hard to trust most of the guys that I've met.(I know it's weird). I would often doubt a person's intention towards me( even from someone that I like). One thing I've learned about this experience is that I should never let myself fall for a jerk that could make me blush.


For this person, you know who you are.... Dadating din ang araw mo.

You Know Who You Are

Please, don't pretend that you're 'ALDO' because you will never be.......

Bore someone else....

I'm Only Human

To start with my entry, I would like to remove the persona that I portay in the workplace, in the community, and in my family. For now, I would like to be me with no pretentions at all.

I can say that I'm blessed with people that sees my worth, that I can see the human face of God.

I'm also blessed to have a parent that inspite my stubbornes and my other shortcomings, loves me for who i really am . I'm grateful to be that God continues to give me opportunities to discover myself. Despite of all these things, I still feel that I don't have the gutts to face God, because of those things that I despise about myself. I've been serving for 2 years, It really lifts my spirit whenever someone got inspired from my sharing about my personal relationship with God. But, whenever I utter words or do something that intend to hurt other people, I start to cringe. Then, I asked myself, "Am I worthyt to His child?" Guys, I am a hypocrite.

This is my struggle: I've realized that the more you serve God, the more people would expect from you. Because, you should always set an example for them. This is the bitter reality that I have to face, this is the hurdle that I want to surpass.

I would always make mistakes. More often that not, it took me 2 or 3 stumbling blocks to learn a principle.

I'm only human

Heath Ledger found dead in NYC

Source: omg.yahoo.com

NEW YORK - Heath Ledger was found dead Tuesday at a downtown Manhattan apartment, naked in bed with sleeping pills nearby, police said. The Australian-born actor was 28. It wasn't immediately clear if Ledger had committed suicide.
He had an appointment for a massage at a residence in the tony neighborhood of SoHo, NYPD spokesman Paul Browne said. A housekeeper who went to let him know the massage therapist had arrived found him dead at 3:26 p.m.
A large crowd of paparazzi and gawkers gathered outside the building on an upscale block. Ledger's body was still inside, and several police officers guarded the door.
The medical examiner's office planned an autopsy Wednesday, spokeswoman Ellen Borakove said.
While not a marquee movie star, Ledger was a respected, award-winning actor who chose his roles carefully rather than cashing in on his heartthrob looks. He was nominated for an Oscar for his performance as a gay cowboy in "Brokeback Mountain," where he met Michelle Williams, who played his wife in the film. The two had a daughter, Matilda, and lived together in Brooklyn until they split up last year.
Ledger most recently appeared in "I'm Not There," in which he played one of the many incarnations of Bob Dylan ƒƒ‚‚ as did Cate Blanchett, whose performance in that film earned an Oscar nomination Tuesday for best supporting actress.
Ledger had finished filming his role as the Joker this year in "The Dark Knight," a sequel to 2005's "Batman Begins."
He's had starring roles in "A Knight's Tale" and "The Patriot," and played the suicidal son of Billy Bob Thornton in "Monster's Ball." He also played a heroin addict in the 2006 Australian film "Candy."
Before settling down with Williams, Ledger had relationships with actresses Heather Graham and Naomi Watts. He met Watts while working on "The Lords of Dogtown," a fictionalized version of a cult classic skateboarding documentary, in 2004.
Ledger was born in 1979 in Perth, in western Australia, to a mining engineer and a French teacher, and got his first acting role playing Peter Pan at age 10 at a local theater company. He began acting in independent films as a 16-year-old in Sydney and played a cyclist hoping to land a spot on an Olympic team in a 1996 television show, "Seat."
After several independent films, Ledger moved to Los Angeles at age 19 and co-starred opposite Julia Stiles in "10 Things I Hate About You," a teen comedy reworking of "The Taming of the Shrew."
Offers for other teen flicks soon came his way, but Ledger turned them down, preferring to remain idle than sign on for projects he didn't like.
"It wasn't a hard decision for me," Ledger told the Associated Press in 2001. "It was hard for everyone else around me to understand. Agents were like, 'You're crazy,' my parents were like, 'Come on, you have to eat.'"
His movie career caught on anyway, culminating with his Academy Award nomination opposite Jake Gyllenhaal in "Brokeback."
"Dark Knight" director Christopher Nolan said earlier this month that Ledger's performance as the Joker would be wildly different than Jack Nicholson's memorable turn in 1989's "Batman."
"It was a very great challenge for Heath," Nolan said. "He's extremely original, extremely frightening, tremendously edgy. A very young character, a very anarchic presence that taps into a lot of our basic fears and panic."

Why I came late today

I can't say that this is the worst day of the week, I just got pissed.

I was about to leave when my brother asked me the documents that he needed today.
To make the long story short, we prepare certain files for BIR yearly (for our family business), I wasn't able to update them from October to December last year. So, when I was asked, I told him, "I don't care if we're late". Of course, his temper flared. Honestly, I know i'ts rude to say that, but I'm still angry at him. Basta, something happened recently. Our Mom heard our quarrel.

Consequently, I had no choice but to rush those files. I started at 8 and finished by 12:30, without having my breakfast. Then, I got a call from my officemate, and accidentally yelled at her. Shucks! I should't do that in the first place...

Now, I've clearly seen the repercussions of slacking. I've realized that the more, you leave your work hanging, the more it would pile up, and the more frustrated you'll be.

One of the things that I want to work on is time management. Most people that I know who are successful have a strong sense of discipline. I emulate them, that's why I want to change obliterate my bad habbits, particularly the "petix" mode. Honestly, it's hard for me to admit that I am "tamad". But I have to acknowledge it, so that I could change for the better.

I 'm making an effort so that these things won't happen again. As they say, the bad becomes the better, and the better becomes the best..

my birthday

I turned 23 today, not exactly young, not exactly old... I'm so thankful that God gave me another year to learn, to dream, and to make things happen. My colleagues, together with my boss had pizza and chicken for lunch (my treat!).

I have so many wishes for my birthday, but for now, I want to simplify everything.. i just wanted to be happy.. nothing more!

I just finished the last chapter of the story that I've been writting since I gradudated from college. I got my inspiration from my past experiences, friends, and movies. This video was quite cheesy, but I still got something from it.
