Aileen or Angel

Banco de memoriam...
To start with, I became a member of Benguet State University-Student Catholic Action, an organization under the umbrella of BSU-Religious Organizations Council on June 2007 thru Ms Aileen Simeon. For the first semester membership, I had just one activity that I ever attended - the dedication and camaraderie night. I do not know if it was because of mismanagement of time. And then I flanked Pharmacology I which is a prerequisite of the 3 subjects that I would be enrolling for the second semester. I was to enrol only 13 units. I wondered what would I do the rest of my free hours. I realized it was a calling. I began dedicating more time to SCA's activities. I found a family. It was where in one of the activities where I met seminarians. Being an SCAn made me revived to optimism. Positive thinking, a healthy mind. Somebody told me that to make a change,it must begin within one's self. I believe I made a good start to bring others close to God.
Today, sister, it's your birthday. Thank you for the chance of being an SCAn! Iloveandmissyou, friend!

WOMAN-ified ME

I was born a woman but ended up acting the opposite. Clumsiness and its cousins in the thesaurus is what I am. Finesse goes unsaid and unheard in my world. I preferred oversized tees over fitting blouses. I refused figure-flaterring dresses for loose pants. I would choose a paintless face even being merged with a bin of all-made-up pretties. But I knew I am a woman inside. So are the secret feelings that have silently died. It was only me who knows everything of what-really-is. It was hard shifting to finer moves. Oh graceful me in sweat! I hate being with someone who I cannot see myself. Because to me, gaudiness is parallel to fun. Not long after, I’ve been to stores of pallets. So the smudged me emerged. Little by little, I’ve added garments I thought I can never wear. These changes of seeing ourselves that can improve us.   

International Friendship Day

July 30. International                F-R-I-E-N-Dship Day. This gift called friendship.      A casual hi and hello tauted to sharing of one's favorite hobby over a cup of coffee and another then another... A bump of elbows in a crowded pizzeria... In a workplace where stiff personality takes its mellow... A mutual liking of a celebrity something as superficial as that... A friend who can be as funny as nasty when mad, who can be garrulous and meek at the same time, who can be your stylist and critic, who can be your kind shoulder and keeper of your darkest secret... Friends spell an array of fruits, colors and season.      Here's a little story of the net-manic me...      Long before Mark Zuckerberg was out with his Facebook was this Friendster that hooked me to staying up long hours (sometimes even longer than doing homework) in an internet shop. Then Friendster was to become...

Monologo ni Aling Atsirka

Sa kanila, … Ako ‘yong batang gusgusin. Nanlilimahid at pinuputakti ng lahat ng klase ng langaw at lamok. ‘Yong amoy ko kasi masahol pa sa – Ano ba ‘yong naamoy mong pinaka sa tanang buhay mo? Kung anuman ‘yon, ‘yon na ‘yon. Gula-gulanit ang kaisa-isa kong dyaket na nakapaimbabaw sa obersays kong dating puting-puting t-shirt e nangingitim na. Bigay lang ‘to ng mamang napadaan dalawang taon na ang nakalipas. At ‘tong pwetan ng bestida kong kaluma-luma’y tagpi-tagpi. Ako’y walang pera ni isang kusing. ‘Alang makain. D’yan lang pagala-gala. Walang tiyak na patutunguhan. A basta, kung anuman ang inabot sa ‘kin ng mga nadadaaanan ko, kinukuha ko. Salamat sa mga panahong nakakatsamba ako sa mga hilera ng basurahan ng pamatid-gutom. Pero para sa kanya, … Prinsesa raw ako. Katunayan e, Prinsesa Juana ang tawag n’ya sa ‘kin. Hihihi… Nakakalanggam naman! Naghihinatay daw sa ‘kin ang napakagarang mansiyon. May malaking kama sa sarili kong kwarto. ‘Tong bestida kong ‘to, sus papalitan Niya...
