UP Tacloban
Magsaysay Blvd
Sa isang sulok ng lamesa, doon kita unang nakita.
Madilim noon. Maingay. Maraming taong nagpapakalasing sa gilid natin. Hindi kita masyadong pinagtuunan ng pansin dahil abala rin ako sa pakikipagkwentuhan at pakikipagtawanan sa mga kasama kong kaibigan. Hindi ka rin tayo nagtagal sa'ming mun mesa. Umalis tayo noon nang ni hindi tayo nakapagkamayan man lamang.
Sa isang sulok ng silid, doon kita muling nakita.
Maliwanag na noon. Ang paligid ay hindi na 'sing ingay noong una kitang nakita. Pinagtuunan na kita ng pansin dahil ikaw ang makakasama ko sa karamihan ng eksenang kagaganapan ko sa isang dula. Naglapit tayo, nag-usap, at nagkilala. Medyo nagtagal tayo sa pagkakatabi dahil kailangan nating maging komportable sa isa't isa. Hanggang sa ating paghihiwalay at pag-uwi, maayos naman ang naging ugnayan natin, sa tingin ko. Naisip kong hindi naman na ako masyadong mahihirapang iraos ang mga eksena kong ikaw ang kasama ko.
Nagpatuloy ang pagkakaibigan. Nagsalo tayo sa mga halik at yakap na hindi na bahagi ng script. Masaya ako pag kasama ka. 'Yung masayang kinakabahan, ba. Dein ko na alam. Ang gulo, ba.
Pero hindi naman na yata pang dapat pabayaang lumalim ang pagtingin. Ang magulo at bwisit na damdamin, di na dapat bigyang pansin. Kung sa aking pag-iisip, ganito ang gagawin, sa iyo kaya, R***i*n. Ano ang babalakin?
Malamang sa oo'y, wala. Hindi iisiping may kung anuman dahil nga wala naman. Gaya ng lagi kong sinasabi sa'yo, kempet lang dapat tayo. Pero sana sa paglipas ng umaga't pagsilip ng gabi, malubos natin ang mga sandaling andito ka pa sa Elbi. Ilang linggo nalang, uuwi ka na'ng Tacloban. At ang pagbabalik mo'y walang kasiguraduhan.
Isa lamang ang hihilingin ko bilang "asawa" mo, Santie. Huwag na natin itong pigilin. Hindi ko na rin itatanggi. Sige lang. Ako'y iyo nang mahalin bago pang ako ay iyong lisanin.

Sa isang sulok ng lamesa, doon kita unang nakita. Sa pag-alis mo'y babalik ako doon. Mag-isa. At alaala ka.
Torn The second semester is about to end. I've been too busy with a lot of school works that I had forgotten to contemplate a very crucial dilemma. You see, I still haven't decided whether to go back to UP Tacloban or stay and shift in UP Diliman. It's a hard decision, one that involves careful planning and consideration of several factors.
I thought about shifting to a different course if I do make it here in Diliman, but that would mean I'll have to spend 3 more years trying to catch up on all the subjects I'll be needing for whatever course I'm gonna take. And it's a problem because I'm supposed to graduate, in 2 years at most.
If I do go back to UP Tac, I'll have to take up several classes alone, without the company of my friends, and I'm very sure it's going to be difficult 'cause I have a hard time concentrating when I'm the only one in class, without anyone to talk to, I'll surely spend a lot of time not attending. I know it's a shallow reason but it's a genuine concern for me. Also, I still have to brace my self because the quality of living in Tacloban right now has worsened. No proper electricity, no stable internet connection and places to stay aren't that good yet.
I'm torn between two things, and what's worse is that I find both options to be something that'll be bad in a sense. So here I am, fearing the end of the semester. Fearing what could be one of the biggest turning point in my entire student life. Sigh.
School thing, psychology class, and and and my first ever *boring* film. :3 it's crappy but believe me HD yan nang pi-nass kay sir. Epic fail. Last minute editing cos our CD's a sht. Haha. Posting this so I never lose a copy cos haiyan took my laptop and my photographs and my cameras and my special memories. I just pretty lost almost all my precious material things and softcopies but whatever I have a whole lifetime to make up for everything. Have a nice day! :)
TO TRANSFER OR NOT TO TRANSFER.
I AM CURRENTLY ON FACEBOOK, browsing through old pictures. Hmm, Whyyyyyy? Facebook just reminds me of Tacloban! I am heartbroken. Am I a weakling for leaving the place where I've found the real me? The place where I found New Life CC, my best friends, my amazing coursemates, batchmates and schoolmates, my favorite snack spots, my college LIFE. Am I? Huhu. It shall come to pass. God will show me, I know. é.è

Sportsfest 2013: The Houses of Lannister, Stark, Barratheon and Targaryen
Okay, no photos yet, but I gotta say, being my first ever Sportsfest event at UP Tacloban, I really did enjoy the first day of this event. Competitive ang mga Lannisters grabe, pati sa cheerdance di nagpatalo, although proud pa rin ako sa House namin, yung Stark. I really am looking forward to participating more if only I had been able to buy the jersey for our Batch. Although I may not seem like the one who's completely supportive of Batch Daraygon, I really am trying my best. It's just that, I don't know, I had to prioritize my exams and papers and DSS Week before anything else. So there I poured down all my money and time. But I guess my presence before our town fiesta would suffice. Go forth! Daraygon is Coming! Onward House of Stark!
