He Must Have Been Laughing

The man must have been laughing these days.

Surely the tides have turned.  The very "honorable" senators who voted a year ago for his impeachment due to his failure to trutfully disclose his assets and liabilities are now the subject of scrutiny for the alleged misuse of their respective PDAF.

"Araw mo ngayon, sa iba naman bukas".

Dumako naman tayo sa balitang pampalakasan........

Empleyado 1:  Paanong nakapasok dito yan, eh hindi naman pumasa sa written exam?
Empleyado 2:  Pinasok ni Ma'am. Me reklamo ka?
Empleyado 1:  Wala. Ikaw, meron?
Empleyado 2:  Wala din.

In Denial

Siguro pinipilit ko lang din talagang pagtagalin na sumulat.  Baka nga ito yung sinasabing "In Denial" stage; na tipong alam mong nangyari na, pero ayaw sumunod ng isip, puso at katawan mo sa dapat mong gawin dahil ayaw mong tanggaping nangyari na nga.

Pero pangako, susulat ako ng tungkol sa'yo, Dade.

Doon Po Sa Amin

"Pwedeng pwede ka", sabi nila.  "Mamalagi ka lang ng ilang taon dito at magpakilala sa tao, siguradong mananalo ka".

Masarap sanang laruin sa utak na pwedeng pwede kang makatulong para mabago ang imahe ng bayang nasa dulo ng lalawigan, ngunit kung maiisip mong madumi ang takbo ng pulitika sa napakaliit na bayang ito; kung malalaman mong marami ang nabibingit sa hukay dahil nais silang pigilan nang mga taong nais maghari sa pamayanan; gugustuhin mo pa nga bang maglingkod?

How do you make a Summer Camp different from the previous?

Have been attending the yearly summer camp for at least 15 years now, and now it rests upon our shoulders to stir up the crowd and make this a life-changing experience.

Blank for now :(

Coffee and Tea

They sit there, face to face, two friends staring, waiting for each other to probably pop up some questions that could somehow define the next course of their lives.  He takes a sip from his cup of coffee; she glances by the hot steam that billows out of her tea.

She asks, "how do you see it in 20 years time"?  His answer, non-commital, was, "probably just the same as now".  Though expected, it comes as a hint that probably there wouldn't be a future between the two of them.

They stood up, two friends, and started walking side by side as if nothing that they talked about has, or will make a difference in their relationship.

They promised to see each other, being the best of friends that they are.

And then, it was goodbye.

 

Muli

158 noong 2009.
61 noong 2010.
31 noong 2011.
Hanggang naging 8 na lang noong 2012.

Hinangad kong makapagpahayag ng kuru-kuro sa malayang pamamahayag, kung kaya nga naipanganak sa blogsphere ang Siyetehan.  Sa simula ay marahas, aktibo, namumutiktik sa dami ng artikulong gustong lumabas sa utak, gustong isulat; ngunit kagaya rin ng ibang bagay, unti-unting nalalaos, naluluma, at napapag-iwanan ng panahon.

Nauubos nga ba ang hangaring magsulat?  Nawawala nga ba ang pasyon na humabi ng salita at makapagpahayag ng saloobin upang guminhawa ang damdamin?

Wari'y may isang maliit na baga ng apoy na muling nahanginan at nagbabadya ng muling pagkamulat upang muling magsulat.

Susubukan kong muli.
