Introspection


Nahihiya naman ako sa blog ko. Kunmpara sa mga blogs na sinusundan ko - na napaka-profound at deep ng substance, na malalalim ang english, entries na may titillating writing voice, at witty humor - parang gawa ng preschooler yung akin. Wala mang lang distinct voice, walang mystery, walang social relevance, walang universality, ni walang humor.

Pero ayus lang. Sila ang mga manunulat na tinitingala ko di lang dahil sa kakayahan nilang sumulat kung hindi dahil din sa husay nilang ihayag ang kanilang kwento sa pamamaraang naaayon sa nilalaman ng kanilang karanasan. Whew. Naubusan ako dun ng tagalog sa sentence na yun ah. 

Anyway, nakaka-inspire mabasa sa kanilang blogs ang iba't ibang experience nila - mapa-work man yan, love life, sex life, family life, at pati mga hobbies nila. Inspire saan? Inspire mamuhay nang masaya at hindi naghahanap ng approval ng ibang tao. Kasi sa tono ng kanilang sinusulat mukhang they all have life figured out na. Alam na nila kung ano gusto nila sa buhay at ginagawa nila kung ano gusto nila.Yun ang ina-aspire ko, magkaroon ng confidence at assertiveness. Confidence sa sarili kong kakahayan, katayuan, at katawan. At assertiveness sa mga bagay na nais kong gawin.

Hayun, I think I would write about things other than those I write these days.

    Sulat lang ng sulat. :) Kakapublish mo ng entries, marerealize mo, lahat ng hinahangad mo (pati voice at wittiness) ay napasaiyo na.

    I completely agree with Mugen. That's what makes our little corner of the universe so much fun. There's room for all sorts of diversity. :)

    i felt the same way when i started blogging. maraming fears ang naramdaman ko. takot sa criticisms ng iba yaw ko kasi nun lalo na sa gawa ko pero dahil sa blogging na ovecome ko siya and wala na kong pakielam kng anu man gusto nila sabihin sa blog ko basta sulat lang ng sulat. feeling ko nga noon insekto ang blog ko kung itatabi mo kila mugen, corporate closet, mcvie, kane, DB, citybuoy at kung sino sino pa.

    para sayo naman, at least may goal ka sa pagba-blog maganda yan.

    naaliw naman ako sa entry na 'to justin :))

    anyways, just continue the flow of thoughts.
    there's no monopoly in writing unless otherwise may particular theme itong blog mo (ie. cooking, travelling, etc)
    i think that makes our blogs differ from those because we write randomly.
    yun naman talaga ang purpose ng blog diba?
    to serve as your personal on-line notebook/diary?
    so wag na ma'conscious :))

    and too, worry not about the highfalutin words or the construction.
    wala naman purfect eh!
    after all, we have differences in defining what is substantial to our taste.
    aja!

    share ko lang: write to express and not to impress.

The One

Feeling loved and inspired, I ask my friends, who are in long-term, serious relationships, how and when they realized that their partners were the ones. Here are their answers: 1) "You don't know. You feel . Nagkakasundo kami palagi. And we have similar tastes." 2) " I just felt it . Despite everything that happened to us, we still chose each other . I just knew it. Tapos nagising na lang din ako isang araw na nung nakita ko siya pagkagising ko na katabi ko siya eh iba na yung feeling ko." 3) "Pasok siya sa criteria ko na kailangan lagi ako chinachat. Kaya nga until now lagi pa rin kami magkachat kahit nakatira na kami sa iisang bahay. Pinakaimportante dapat damang dama mo na gustong gusto ka niya.: 4) " Hindi niya ako iniwanan in my lowest point . He's one of the people na napaka-pure ng intention. Love personified." 5) " I just knew somehow .Yung di ako mahihiya ipakilala sa mga tao. Yung di na ako kailangan magtago." 6) "Sig...

Before Coming Out

Lately, I've been thinking of coming out. It's like I want to free of myself of the burden of keeping my identity a secret. But before I come out, I just have some personal conditions I need to accomplish first. I won't be doing these things just to earn people's approval on my lifestyle but more for me being comfortable in the path I've chosen to live.

A Walk to Equanimity Spa

I was just feeling really tired that day. There was all sort of stress that came my way that week - coming from deadlines from school and from the chaos in the family. All I want was just to have a relaxing massage since it has been a week since my last one. It was just fitting to reward myself with a good old rub down to ease tension from my body and my mind. So that night, I decided that I would get a massage no matter what. The bus I rode from school dropped me off at Kamuning Road. I decided not to go to my suking massage place because the new attendants there were young and very much inexperienced, as far as massage technique is concerned. That night I wanted quality massage really worth paying money for. In Kamuning, I remember passing-by a number of spa before. So I walked the street from EDSA to scout the area and look for a good massage place. The first spa that I passed-by had a black brand (which name I could not remember). It seemed nice but the feeling I had made me w...
