Pagadian and Osamiz

Image
April 22, 2008, AT 7.am, Gothong Butuan bay docked at Cebu Port. Kuya arnold and i slept very soundly, while te cathy did not. we transfered from tourist to cabin, where the four bed supposedly occupied by three. it was a great trip, seen a lot of friends from way back then. it was a blast over my experience in Pagadian, the food in a hundred pesos its a meal for three already. the Estores family were such a family too. i had fun in their haus. just like i was in Cebu. i am soo relaxed and yes i am safe with old folks and new one, ANN(Bernies fiancee), Michael(kuya arnolds bro and works for BDO) and Isabel their youngest. with their papa. we had a great lunch, sumptuous one. We were working together to a great party on a Sunday. We roamed around too, and guiltlessly spoke my idea about the place. THE NO NO TRAFFIC SIGN, the undiscplined drivers, the weird trike, the laid back pace and its development. The people i have seen, were some moslems and some catholic.i might not even recogniz...

Photography

the passion for photography is within a person who handles the gadget. at first hand i was given the chance to rediscover little by little my secret passion about photography. My mentor was my papa, lolo and my uncle, who in the long run have been mused , with their SLR. which are nikon. I took my first shoot when i was 7. in my great uncles beach front in Lilo-an back then that was so clean. my first subject were my cousins, lined up for posterity sake. next was when i was in college, photojournalism, and now with my line of work, i was with allan defensor, who is so helpfull about the tips and techniques. thnx to fotoshop but no thanks. these fotos posted were as virgin as me(hahaha, sori to all those who dont get it). they were my short stint but yet im kinda fulfilled with it, after a long day run, camwhoring as these pro peeps infront of me, trying to negate with my clicks and whalllaaaaa, natural smiles under the bamboo, on which its color displayed much of the life and vibrancy...

My MINE, the stranger, the texter

4.15.08 He texted me, we fall in love we call each other MINE, we hang out til' wee hours in the morning, the night wont end without saying i love you, i miss you, word war, petty feud, haggling, kissing, make love, explaining why we do love each other. I'm having a good day ahead, morning texts, telling me his going for a ball game, drinking binge, with his friends or out where jullias located, telling me he was home at 3.45am; missed calls. All this word were the latest buzz about me and MINE. Throughout the day, he was the constant texter i got from day to day. Encompassing yet i was looking forward. i was in constant navigation, inhaling every thin air when it starts to become so crispy at 2am or 4 perhaps. not until saturday! He might bade farewell the last txt i got was "TIPSY" might be an acronym. but then i tried to sway back from getting too deep with what was he texted, i replied to my own thought. till now, i dont really know where he is, why he never texte...

strange text

it was thursday, i was so tired, i havent had a good rest since wednesday night, killing myself for the supplement. i went home early when in the jeepney theres this text from my fone unexpectedly, read it and just found a freaky " CAN I BE YOUR TEXTMATE?" wtf as i murmured, he keeps on txtng until i the last one mentioned my name. how could this guy knew me and num is not registered, i cursed him to death and he said his name is erik, bullfrog i dont know him, but we are sending love messages now, how pathetic and how enchanted(as what jello loves to say). hahaha, wish this would end.

Reminiscing

3.19.08 i was all alone in the cab, i feel i was in oblivion for the silence between me and the driver in the middle of the traffic in San Carlos Talamban going to my office. i was looking at the left corner when i saw this guy in white shirt clinging the shoulder bag of his girlfirend talking in an internet cafe nook. it was a very long stop, i was not paying attention to him not until he looked at me and in my blank stare the registration was so slow, the stares took a while when i remembered the guy from my hi school days. CHESTER PUGOY the guy from my third year high school classmate. he was my first kiss, and probably the best person i can say that i was in love with. hope he is fine and doing well now. he's married and dunno the rest of him till' this moment. That guy from USC Talamban made me miss Chester so much. as i was slowly drifting from the heat of the sun in my silence i said my prayer for the man i learned to love on a 1992 valentines day inside the lonely libra...
