NOT A BAD THING
Before, hindi ko alam kung pa'no ko ii-interpret ang kanta. But this afternoon, I realized, it's as if you're singing it for me, with the idea of me doubting someone like you could appreciate someone like me. Chos! Hahaha Assuming it that way made me say, pwede naman pala yun wini-wish kong "I deserve better."

KAKAIBABE

Kung pwede ko lang itranslate yung kanta para bumagay sayo. Remember my status na, "Pag natagpuan, 'Wag pakawalan..." I don't want to lose you. Kahit maraming fears at the back of my mind, my heart always tell me, to give us a try. Malay natin, maging totoo nga yung 8th as infinity. Kanta mo rin ba yan sa'kin? Am I a kakaibabe? Hahaha Feelingera lang ang ambisyosang froglet mo hahaha

LOVING YOU

Parang nakakalungkot ang kanta based sa lyrics and sa official music video. But I will only focus sa chorus.
Loving you,
every moment, every day of my life,
you know I'll be loving you
Loving you,
cause the way that we feel is so right,
you know I'll be loving you...

hashtag struggle

Yes. I'm in great struggle.

I sometimes forget about this.
But most of the time, it gives me more pain.

I'm tired. I'm getting worse.
I know I'm not for this anymore.

I want to leave, and go somewhere.
I want to forget, escape perhaps.
And, wish not to go back.

I badly need time to be alone,
to rest, and to discern.

Cheers to 2014!

Happy New Year everyone, especially to those who are part of my 2013 journey. Hope to have another wonderful year with you this 2014.

Sa lungga, you'll always be my family.

Sa single-and-slash-or-taken ladies, you know I love you girls!

Sa Athletics Office na nagpasaya sa akin ng mahigit dalawang taon.

Sa mga taong mahalaga sa akin, at ipinaramdam sa akin kung gaano kasarap mabuhay,

kay ate Rinah at Kuya Don

kay Kuya Ruffy at Jaycee

and, kay Ate Co at Coach Jec

thank you po sa lahat-lahat na ginawa nyo for me,

Forever po akong magiging thankful sa inyo :)

Kay Felix na sakit sa ulo noon hanggang ngayon, thank you for our 2013 memories. More to share. Sabi mo nga, "looking forward to a better us in 2014 and forever."

Little by little, our dreams will come true. Kaya ta yan!

Bro, Papa, and Mama, I love you so much! You'll always be the best!

Have a blessed 2014 everyone!

ika-3 ng Disyembre

Parang 'yang nasa litrato...

maaaring lantang bulaklak, maaari ring ang namumukadkad tangi.

Ano nga ba ang mas makakabuti?

Kailangan na bang tuluyang bumitaw sa isa't-isa? At tahakin ang kanya-kanyang landas bilang magkaibigan o magkakilala.

O hayaang hilomin ng panahon ang mga puso? At bigyan ang bawat isa ng panahong maging buo at maging handang muli.

Ang ating kwento...

siya sa umaga

It was November 1 morning...

... when I woke up early but chose to stay in bed 'cause he's just about to sleep. When he lie down and fallen asleep already, I stared at his face (That was the time I took a photo of him. By the way, he was not snoring that time, wondering if he's really asleep hahahaha).

I asked myself,
"Siya na ba talaga gusto kong makasama for the rest of my life?",
"Hindi ba ko magsasawang siya ang makkita ko sa bawat paggising sa umaga?".

For these questions, I thought of kuya don's term, partner in life.

Then I slept again.

minsan sa buhay ng tao

May mga desisyong kailangang panindigan,
hindi dahil sa hindi na masaya,
hindi dahil sa napapagod na,
ngunit kailangan na.

May mga magiging desisiyong kailangang magtaya,
hindi dahil sa hindi na mahalaga,
hindi dahil sa wala nang nadarama,
ngunit kailangan na.

Minsan sa buhay ng tao,
kahit ga'no tayo kasaya o kalungkot
sa kung saan man tayo ngayon,
may mga desisyong kailangang gawin
dahil sa kailangan, ito ang dapat,
panahon na para isipin naman muna ang sarili,
at dahil dito mas mabubuo ang pagkatao.

kumakatok muli

May mga bagay-bagay na iniisip kong sana dumating sa darating na panahon.
Pero heto "siya" ngayon sa harap ko, abot kamay, at napaaga ang dating.

Hahayaan ko bang makawala muli ito sa pangalawa o pangatlong pagkakataon?
Eto na ba ang signos?
Kaya ko naman eh.
Sana lang maintindihan nila.

Help me Bro.

oneBIRTHDAYgreeting

Hi Myangligaw! oooppppsss.... ligaw pa ba? hehehe

Hi oneLOVELYsoul :)

found some old pictures in the laptop i used,
just my way of saying...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ATE NIKKI!

at dahil birthday mo...

isang simpleng regalo para sa'yo ~.~

tumaya't tumalubo

isang desisyon ang kailangang panindigan
hindi lang para sa mga taong mahalaga sa'yo,
kun'di para na rin sa sarili mo.

desisyong maaaring dalhin ka kung saan ka sasaya, mas matututo,
at tatayo sa sarili mong mga paa;
o maaaring iparamdam sa'yo kung sa'n ka mas nararapat.

may mga bagay na kailangang gawin
dahil ito ang nararapat,
dahil ito ang makakatulong,
at dahil ito ang tanging paraan.

isang desisyong siguradong babago sa maraming plano.
isang desisyong kailangang paghandaan.
isang desisyong sana maintindihan ng karamihan.

masaya sa kung nasaan man ngayon,
ngunit kailangang lumisan.

maraming rason upang manatili,
ngunit mas matimbang ang dahilan para lumisan.

minsan kailangang tumaya para matuto,
at para masabi mong...
"at least sinubukan ko."

heart thinks

you may not be the one i had in mind,
you may not be what or who i expected,
but, you may just be the one i need.

i'm not in love with you that much.
but everyone thinks otherwise.
and every time i'm asked about it,
about how i feel for you.
i can't answer something certain.
i can easily say there's nothing,
but i can't.
because i know there's something.
but the thing is,
it's still uncertain.

the student-athletes and the girlfriends

sa mga pelikulang napanood ko
madalas, ang girlfriend ng mga lalaking varsity player
eh kung hindi miyembro ng cheerleading group,
pwedeng isa sa mga sikat o magagandang babae sa campus.

pwedeng sa pelikula ang yan.
pwede ring sa totoong buhay.
ewan ko. ang akin lang...
base sa mga nakikita ko kung ano'ng meron sa paligid ko
maswerte ang mga player na 'to sa mga girlfrined nila.
These ladies love these men so much.

hindi madali para sa kanila ang maging girlfriend ng mga varsity player.
hindi sila dapat maging sobrang selosa,
dahil siguradong hindi lang sila ang humahanga sa mga boyfriend nila.
nandyan ang mga babaeng supporters o fans na kinikilig
o sobra kung sumigaw kapag nakakapuntos ang player.
grabeng pag-iintindi at pasensya ang binibigay nila para sa mga boyfriend nila.
nandyan ang praktis, team meetings, extra work, klase, make-up classes,
requirements sa mga subject...at kung anu-ano pa.
hindi ko sinasabing hindi totoo ang mga yan,
pero naiintindihan yan ng mga girlfriend.
they have to.
pero sana lang hindi naaabuso ng mga boyfriend.
laging nandyan ang mga girlfriend kapag may mga laro,
syempre para sumuporta, para magcheer, at para iparamdam sa mga boyfriend nila
na manalo man o matalo, "andito pa rin ako para sa'yo".

para sa mga girlfriend ng mga varsity player:
sana wag kayong magsawang suportahan, intindihin, at
mahalin ang mga boyfriend nyo
hindi man sila perfect pagdating sa time management
pero sinisikap nilang mabigyan kayo ng oras
mahal kayo ng mga 'yon.


 

 

para sa mga boyfriend ng mga babaeng tinutukoy ko:
sana patuloy nyong intindihin din ang mga girlfriend nyo, wag nyong hayaang maubos ang pasensya nila sa inyo, dahil mahal nila kayo. 
respect them.
show them that you are worthy of their trust.
 
i am not a love expert, 'cause i'm really not.
pero alam kong alam nyo kung ano'ng kailangan nyo sa relationship nyo.
baka kasi nakakalimutan nyo,
pinapaalala ko lang.

i hope 2012 had been nice to you couples.
i wish you better relationships this coming 2013.

high hopes

heard that coach carter movie is a good one.

my brother has actually a copy of it.
yesterday morning before my classes, i decided to watch it.
too bad i wasn't able to finish it before 10am.
thank God i have enough time after lunch.
i can't help crying while watching the movie.
i was able to relate the movie to what is happening
in our own basketball team, in my family, and in the society.

it motivated me to do something to create change in my own little way.
i hope i can make it into reality.
i believe i can help the youth in our barangay.
it may be simple, but the values they would get is more important.

i saw coach noli in the character of coach carter.
i salute him for his passion and love for the sport and the team.
i just hope that our student-athletes realize the privilege of playing the sport
and being in the program, and of course the importance of being a student.

i am thankful for the opportunity.
i am very thankful that i see the significance of sports in a person's life.
i am blessed being part of this group who believes that
sports can create change, can instill values, and can make a person better.

earthlings #2

katrabaho.kaibigan.ate.

yan ang mga role nila sa buhay ko.

i consider ate thea and ate trish as my sisters for life.

iba-iba man kaming tatlo, pagdating sa kalokohan nagkakasundo kami. para kaming mga highschool student. i enjoy every dinner, coffee kwentuhan, and lamyerda we had. kahit anong gawin namin ok lang, kasi for sure we'll enjoy.

si ate thea, parang ate ko talaga yan, she guides me kapag may problema ako or any concerns. she advises me when it comes to decision making. she even fills my heart with so much love - love for God, family, others, and self. sa mga ka-SF-an ko, nagkakasundo kaming dalawa, kasi kahit ako suportado siya sa pagiging certified SF niya.

si ate trish naman ang isa sa mga taong kilala ko na thoughtful, creative, and expressive. akala nyo simple at seryoso yan, hindi ah, may kalokohan side din yan. hehehe. peace ate! i admire her for her fashion statement. she has her own style. pak na pak! maasahan mo siya kapag kailangan mo siya, kahit ano pa yan. PCng-PC yan si manay mo.

to my two ates, thank you sa lahat-lahat (many to mention kasi eh. hehehe).

isang mahigpit na yakap para sa inyo.

earthlings #1

mas nauna kong nakilala si kuya don than ate rinah. pero ngayon, pareho kong mahal na mahal ang dalawang 'to. kuya don has been my kuya talaga, coffee buddy (nung adik na adik pa ako sa kape), mentor, and counselor. ate rinah has been a good ate all the time. because of her, i have rio. kapag kasama ko siya, kahit tahimik lang ako at nakikinig sa mga kwento niya, kontento na ako.

simple acts and words of these two people make me happy so much. minsan sa simpleng text lang kan duwa, may problema man ako o mayo, napaphibi ako kasi aram kong blessed ako for having them. i always enjoy their company lalo na kapag food trip kami dawa sain. when i'm with them, dae ko lang naeenjoy ang istoryahan, nakakanuod pa ako.

both of them inspire me. dahil saindang duwa, mas naappreciae ko an mga simpleng bagay sa buhay - itong mas importante pa sa materyal na bagay.

thank you kuya don and gurlpren sa friendship and pagpapadangat sako. i love you both so much.

the introduction

sa buong buhay ko, hindi ata ako magsasawang magpasalamat at magkwento tungkol sa mga taong mahalaga sa buhay ko.

i know this will take time, but i'll be glad na ipost sa blog ko ang magandang nangyari sa buhay ko dahil sa mga taong 'to.

every entry may be referring to an individual, a couple, or a group of people.

i may not tell it all, but i'll write from the heart.

nakarandom order po ang post ko. hehehe

happy reading sa earthlings posts ko.

blessings in disguise

just want to thank two people for starting to make my wishes come true.

they have no idea of my plan to collect mugs and key chains this year,
but their gifts are blessings.

thank you ihmz (CAO's student manager)
for this cute key chain! already have two adopted dolls
from blue magic - little lyka and kathee.

thank you kuya don for this mug!
lalo akong malululong sa kape nito.
more coffee break kwentuhan with you.
kapartner nito ang cellphone ko -
cappuccino din kasi yun.

muli, salamat!

myMap part 1

after we prepared the foods for our noche buena, i did the washing of dishes, naalala ko lang bigla ang sabi ng isang kaibigan. he said that i'm still young and all my plans could change. i told him that i'm sure of the things i want to do. then he asked me "ano baya mga plano mo?" sabi ko, "athletics office, JVP, volunteer work elsewhere, masters degree (he reminded me this), and travel.

by 2012, there are opportunities to travel. comes march, i'll be in a retreat at baguio. i may not be sure whom i'll be with, there's the excitement of the new journey. if ever, it will be my first 5-day silent/directed retreat. by April, FSSO goes to Ilocos for its GGA. Aside from this, i hope for more travels - less cost, more fun. (hahahaha!)

because of superman's advice to grab air fare promos, i wish to visit my two cousins in Cebu in february or march, and explore the wonders of puerto galera even for a short time by june or july. i'm still thinking where to spend my october and december long break.

starting 2012, i'll start my travel experience. along with these, i shall start collecting mugs and keychains from places i'll be going.

school year 2012-2013 will welcome me as a student again - a gradschool student. even i really want to take my second bachelor's degree, it would be difficult on my part as an employee. if ever the morning classes will affect my office works. i guess i'll just have my masteral (MBA) first and think about of a better plan for my CE course in the future. 

since nasa accounting naman ang field ko, i'm planning to take the Certified Bookkeeper Examination. after two and a half years or before i reach the age of 25, I already have two titles after my name (Engr. can be added in the future. hehehe) - 

Ms. Sheryl I. Nacario, CB, MBA

beyond basketball

Last night, I had a gulp session with sir don razon, kuya felix, kuya chok, and audrei (na hindi naman uminom). At first, puro kalokohan lang pinaggagagawa nila, pinagtitripan ako, tapos kwentuhan about the adnu games against different teams. Maraming napagkwentuhan, kung pa'no naging team A si Prila, strengths and weaknesses ng mga team noon and ngayon, decision ni Tanoy to stay in AdNU, at marami pang iba. But big daddy's story made mark in my heart. Like sir don, the passion to help big daddy came into my senses. Gusto kong tabangan si big daddy. As I recall the stories from Soler, Bugoy, and BJ, the more I am motivated to give my time and effort para sa academics niya. I may not be an excellent student but I know I can help him. I must. Sabi nga nila, Big daddy's one of the strongest and biggest recruit of the team. He can do a lot inside the court while he play. Sabi nga ni sir don, favorite niya si big daddy di lang sa gusto niya, but because he wanted this player to have a great life with his grandmother. I want to help big D become a better person. Walang masama sa pagiging Security Guard (ang pangarap ni big D). Tama si coach Noli, big D is more than that. He can be more, and basketball will help him. The team will help him. I will help him.

for you

...i will never get tired of saying thank you.
 
sa pagvolunteer nindo to take part sa intrams, not as players but as volunteers,

sa pag-intindi sa mga kapalpakan ko (sorry!),
sa respeto na tinatao nindo sa kada saro, asin
sa barkadahan na igwa kita ngonian.
