Read Each One Carefully and Think About It a Second or Two

1. I love you not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you

2. No man or woman is worth your tears, and the one who is, won't make you cry.

3. Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.

4. A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.

5. The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them knowing you can't have them.

6. Never frown, even when you are sad, because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.

7. To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.

8. Don't waste your time on a man/woman, who isn't willing to waste their time on you.

9. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet theperson, we will know how to be grateful.

10. Don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened.

11. There's always going to be people that hurt you so what you have to do is keep on trusting and just be more careful about who you trust next time around.

12. Make yourself a better person and know who you are before you try and know someone else and expect them to know you.

13. Don't try so hard, the best things come when you least expect them to.

REMEMBER: WHATEVER HAPPENS, HAPPENS FOR A REASON.

braullio

Hit or miss. Narinig ko ang katagang 'yan noong mag-workshop ako sa PHR dalawang taon na ang nakararaan. Ang sabi ng aming facilitator, normal lang daw sa isang romance writer ang magkaroon ng di-kagandahang nobela paminsan-minsan. Hit or miss kumbaga.

Hindi lingid sa inyo na paborito kong writer si Ms. Rose Tan ngunit aaminin kong hindi ako gaanong nagandahan sa ilan sa mga likha niya nitong huli. Hindi ko na babanggitin ang mga pamagat dahil baka maimpluwensiyahan ko pa ang panlasa ninyo. Basta sa aking pananaw ay mga "misses" niya ang mga iyon.

Pero okay lang dahil aliw pa ding basahin kaya sulit naman ang ibinayad kong treinta y cinco pesos. Ang hula ko nagpapa-kondisyon pa siya siguro kaya ganoon. Hindi ba't matagal siyang hindi naglabas ng libro?

Anyway, nabasa ko kanina ang latest niya sa Senorito series, si Braullio. She's back! Galing! Mahirap i-kahon ang kuwento kasi hindi siya tear jerker at hindi din naman siya comedy. Well, in a way, comedy siya pero hindi siya laugh-out-loud funny gaya ng nakasanayan na natin sa panulat ni RT. Kung iyon ang hanap mo, hindi mo iyon makikita sa nobelang ito.

Hindi halata ngunit may lalim ang ilan sa mga nobela ni RT at kabilang si Braullio sa mga iyon. Maliban sa pinagtahi-tahing eksena, may isa pang lebel ang istorya. Isang lebel na sumasalamin sa "human condition" natin. Iyon ang nagustuhan ko sa kanya.

Truth...ito ang elementong nakita ko sa mga bida ng kuwento. Ipinapakita nila na kahit anong tayog ng isang tao, tao pa din siya, may kahinaang taglay. Tulad ko, tulad mo, tulad niya. Hindi natin puwedeng takasan ang bagay na 'yan dahil bahagi 'yan ng pagiging tao natin. Ang kailangan ay yakapin natin ang mga kahinaan natin at huwag gamiting dahilan para huwag nating mahalin ang sarili natin (Rangie) o hadlangan ang sarili nating lumigaya (Bray).

my funny valentine

Since I'm not rooting for anybody in particular, I've been missing a lot of AI episodes recently. It was only this week that I was again able to watch the show and I couldn't believe my ears when I heard Constantine Maroulis sing!! Grabe! His voice was so dang sexy. I didn't know he had it in him. Admittedly, the arrangement of the song (my funny valentine sans the title of this post) helped a lot but still...

care to listen? http://www.idolforever.com/media/mp3/Constantine-040505.mp3

here's what i realized

There's this counter thingy at g-mail's main page. At first I thought nothing of it, that it was just for show but then I realized that it actually does something. What it says in the counter signals the number of gig you get id est the longer the counter stays open in your browser, the higher your g-mail memory.

Aint that sweet?

PS. Those needing invites, just send me your e-mail add. I've still got tons.

note to self:

kung kailangan mong tumawid ng dagat, lumusong ka sa tubig.
kung hindi mo gagawin iyon, hindi ka makakarating sa dapat mong puntahan
wag kang magalala, pasasaan ba't matututo ka ding lumangoy
