Crisis

Friday, February 6th, 2009

For the past few days, I thought I could manage things out. I thought that everything will pan out the way I wanted. I thought I’d be able to recover smoothly. I thought I’d be able to forget the feeling.

I tried not to make a big fuss about anything related to us. I tried not to think of it as something I’d expect something of. I really made an effort to make it normal for us. I just wish I could let it just fade away and live life like she never existed.

But unlike this simple essay, I can’t backspace and change things. I cannot erase the fact that I have fallen in love with her. I also cannot erase that I’m getting drowned to the feeling. I also cannot just undo everything. I really don’t get it. How difficult is it to unnotice someone who doesn’t really care.

I really am blind. I really didn’t see the repercussions of what kind of situation I have put myself into. I really didn’t took everything into consideration before doing it. And now that everything’s a mess – my identity, my confidence, my mind. I just don’t know anyone who can help me get through this. All I know is that I self-destructed and I can’t put myself back to what I used to be.

I feel rotten. Though I know how to pretend, there are certain things that I can’t hide. Certain things which I am still not sure of.

I used to be really good at this. I’m actually really good at advising people. I just don’t know how I lost myself.

It’s quite tiring if you keep on looking for something; and you just can’t find anything. Worse is, you’re alone and unhappy.

Now, I’m very afraid of what kind of person I’m ending up. Day by day, I hate myself. I just wish I know how to give up.

After Three Exams

Wednesday, January 28th, 2009

I’m pretty much intact. But yea, three exams in a week. THREE HARDCORE ones. You can really lose your sanity. I could’ve been close to having my insanity taken by the continuous trauma I’ve been getting after each exam I took this past week.

Boredom and Realizations.

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008
Ha. I miss blogging. My blog has been my bestfriend throughout college. He never fails to listen everytime I need to rant about things. He never fails to make me feel better after every sad phase of my life. My blog knows me a lot. There are a few entries I don’t publish that only my blog knows, and he keeps everything safe and secured, private. I just realized that he helped me go through lots of things. My blog has been a witness to my frustrations, realizations and victories for the past three years. Maybe without him, I’d be uber supressed. This blog’s been up for quite a few years already, amazing. Click it here. I did some back reading and look back at some of the memories we shared together. Some entries, I can’t help but laugh, some I can’t help but cry.

Boredom.

Takipsilim.
Apparently, ABS-CBN bought the rights for a teleserye spinoff of Twilight. A lot of Pinoy fans wouldn’t want it to happen. Thus, the reason why a thread full of “ABS CBN will ruin this Twilight shiznit” welcomes me everytime I visit Multiply.

My reaction. I don’t actually care. Even if Twilight was super duper mega hyped since early this year and then to top it off, the movie. I didn’t gain interest into actually reading the book nor watching the movie. I don’t easily go with the flow eh.

Though I feel for these die-hard fans, its like GMA 7 ruining the Survivor franchise, I don’t think we could put a stop on it na. All we have to do is to accept it and hope that ABS-CBN make a splendid job of it. Spirits was actually good. *erm, I think it was good, Maja Salvador LOVE*

Pero please, stop flooding Multiply na ha!?

Celebrity Crushes. I had always been a fan of Angel Locsin. Though I think switching to ABS-CBN did her any good, I still think she’s hot. *erm, his Charley days on Click most specially*

And I was never a fan of Cristine Reyes until Eva Fonda. Gawd. I definitely missed a lot. She was a forgettable face in Starstruck 1. But I always thought she shouldn’t have been eliminated that early. I never knew SHE. COULD. BE. THIS. HOT. Haha.

A Thing For Dancers. I watched some episodes of So You Think You Can Dance in YT and I tell you that show’s full of hot dancers. I never knew I had a thing for dancers until the past month. I was like going gaga over some celebrities and friends who’re like so hot when they dance and like so meh, after dancing. Again, this might just be brought up by the Indakan fever but ’twas actually good that I now appreciate “dancing” more than ever.

I have a little crush on my two dormmates because of them being good at dancing. I love Maja Salvador even more!

Pasttime. Yes. Ako na ang aliping namamahay. I cook. I wash the dishes. I buy what’s needed. I cleaned the garage. Everything. Pero nagagawa ko pa din mag-internet and mag-text. *even if I have three ME 73 papers due on January 10 (good news: I already finished one!)*

Holiday Fever. I always love this time of the year. As many of my batchmates from highschool and elementary texts me a lot and are very much willing to meet up to roam around this boring city. But what makes my stay here special are the people I grew up with and of course my family. We do things just for the heck of it. Just for the time we can spend with each other.

But I miss my UP dormmates, my friends since Kalai and my newfound friends in Molave.
Most of all, I miss my orgmates, some UPDOSTSA members and my super love na org even if five months pa lang ako since induction PSME-UPSU (Pisme’). I miss a lot of them. The past two months, Pisme ang buhay ko. They were my friends and my family (besides SD – extended family) in UP. I never have to change to be with them. What I love about them is that they’re all genuine people. They lend their hands and ears when they know that there’s a problem. They always try to understand me. With them, I find comfort. Its just amazing how we connect much and probably, know (AS IN KNOW) each other so well in just a short span of time. I love Pisme’ ! And I miss you guys. Especially…

Realize.

I realized that its really not important if the one you love doesn’t reciprocate the feelings you have for him/her. What’s important is that you are loving the person you want to love and that love can take you a long way. You can learn a lot of things. What’s important is that you are loving because you choose to and if its what it takes, then go.

As for me, it pays out that I don’t get easily hurt. I do believe that this is an indication that I am a stronger person now. I always try to figure things out in my own way. I know now that even how many times I fall, it may not be that easy but I know I’ll get through every problem. After all, I know that if I couldn’t carry the burden anymore, I have friends who’ll always be there to back me up.

I have finally decided to just let it be. If my feelings for her expire, then good. We can be friends more than ever. But I won’t pressure myself to unlove her. I just can’t. I hope if it does fade, the sooner, the better. *something’s telling me, I’d be able to move on like after n years* I don’t want to seem like a loser again.

However, I can always pretend that I don’t have anymore feelings for her. That way I can retain the friendship. I can still love, even knowing she can’t love me the way I would have wanted her to.

Lol. Realize. If you just realize, what I just realized. We’ll be perfect for each other. We’ll never find another. Just realize, what I just realized. We’ll never have to wonder what we’ll miss out on each other now.

We’ll definitely miss a lot.

A Letter and Confusion.

Sunday, December 14th, 2008

One friend wrote me a letter. An orgmate. I’d try to tell you what it’s all about. Its something like this.

Dear Rommel,

Recently, I’m trying to convice that I don’t like this person much. But still, I end up trying. Maybe, I just can’t resist a day not seeing her. This Engineering Week can’t get any worse. She’s a born dancer. That’s why she’ll be one of our organization’s representative for Indakan ’08, which by the way, will be held tomorrow at the UP Film Institute. Please support Team PiSME.

I always attend their practice. At times, I’ll make excuses. Lousy ones. Just to be able to see her. Just to be able to be with her.

HA. I’m so sick of the feeling. I don’t even know if I stand a chance. She’s with someone.I don’t know if its really serious. When I asked her, her reactions were very unclear. Its as if she doesn’t care about her boyfriend. Its as if she didn’t miss her.

Everytime, each time I see her stealing a glance at me, I feel the chills. I caught her doing that not only a couple of times. I don’t know if I’m just assuming but she’s just so special and I can’t help it.

She always asks whenever she leaves, if I’m gonna come with her or them, or not. At times when I don’t mind her, she’s gonna ask me something. She’s very thoughtful; she asks me about how my examination turned out and the like.

I don’t wanna give meanings to whatever she’s doing since I don’t wanna break my heart. I don’t wanna lose what a great friendship we have.

And this Engineering Week is killing me; these past few days, I see her pretty often. Well, we’re classmates in most of the subjects. We frequently have study groups too. We always eat our lunch together, with our orgmates. HA. I wish I could confirm if she’s interested too.

And if she’s interested too, what shall I do? I’m so confused. And this is not only how complicated it can get. There are a lot of things that I can’t say to you. A lot of things I can’t say to her too.

I couldn’t wait for the Holiday Break to come. I seriously need one week away from her.

Lovelots,
Dumb Ass


He’s probably confused. I hope I could help him.

Another note, its quite weird that these past few days,I’ve been reading my Friendster horoscope and it seems so timely or rather, incidental that they do apply about the current happenings in my life.

And for today:
“Look at a stressful situation again — is it really that bad? Chances are it’s not.”

Maybe I’m just trying to overanalyze things.

As of now, I’m too much pre-occupied with the Engineering Week. And my first strike of hell week’s just finished with six straight exams! Whew. I know right!? HELL.

I guess I have to enjoy my last three academic days of the year and spend the last week of the year resting. Then, I’d have to embrace the year 2009 with a big bang, and hope that it’d be a better year for me.

And finally, my friend and I can figure out the answers to our questions and the solutions to our problems.

Ciao.

Friends

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008
When they leave us, it sucks big time.
When all of a sudden they act as if you never existed in their lives, its suicidal.

I once thought I can live by myself, my family and no one else. I’m very keen with who I befriend, I don’t trust much. I’ve one of those who likes reading people and from that, I know who to get acquainted with and those who won’t be there all along. Well, I can say, I’ve been mostly right.

Some “friends” go, but when they go and leave us, then that means they’re not the “friends” we thought they would be. Or, they would probably be the ones you’ve expected most to be the ones, there, to care for you when you’re down, but then, they’re not the ones by your side.

I’ve been thinking. I kept a set of friends, some elementary friends, some high school friends (most of them I consider as “real friends” come from this bunch). Some from college. Most are my dormmates and orgmates. One thing I’m uncertain with my college friends and those whom I consider as “friends” in this moment in time, is if they would be willing to stay in the race with me until the finish line. I mean, there’s still a lot to conquer. Some, for sure, I’ll lose along the way. Some, I’ve already lost along the way.

Sometimes, I ask myself if I’ve been a really good friend to others. I am, I think. I might not be at par but I do care for my friends. I do worry where and what’s happening to them every passing second. I do want to make sure that they’re okay all the time. I do my best to be a “friend” to them.

Friends are really important. You share bundles of joy and heartaches together. May it be virtual or personal, its hard to lose someone who knows you very well. Someone, who carries you when you’re down or shares you their life and most-kept secrets. They always know when you’re in a good or in a bullcr*p mood. I’ve lived the recent parts of my life dependent of my friends, for they’re love for me, is enough to satisfy my cravings for romantic partner. In fact, I don’t need one now.

And that’s probably the most painful part. Since you’ve gotta be reminiscing the days it has been. Those memories you shared. Those text messages and YM conversations you enjoyed. It sucks to let go of someone who has been a part of your lifestyle, an extension of your soul, when before’s just much to let go.

What bothers me is the irony when you were once “friends” and possibly the best buddies you’ve had since like ever, and then, it comes to a point that you wouldn’t even mind each other because of such egoistical things caused by petty stuffs. Then it’s not friendship we built, we can’t let any “petty” thing get in out way if we’re “friends” . When pride’s at stake, when image and name’s at stake, I guess, it’s an issue. But, isn’t it exaggerated if a lot of “sorries”, “peace offerings” plus “what can i do to make it right?’s” ends up getting unnoticed when for a fact, that you’re friend have done the same thing to you before?

Well, I’ve committed mistakes. A bunch of them. I said my sorry. It’s all up to you to accept it. I’ve carried the burden so much and I’ve tolerated much of your so-called tantrums. But, isn’t it unfair, that it’s always about you? Isn’t it taking advantage of my feelings? Remember when I asked you if you’re conceited. I do feel conceited when we talk about us you. you. you. And now, that it was me who has made a significant mistake, I’m worthy of being extinct in your life? Is that the lowest I can get from being such a fool friend to you throughout these months?

These might be all blurry and probably not the most coherent entry but it really sucks to lose a friend. Especially, if you’re really eager to try it all out once again and then, just because of my careless generalization, it would’ve caused the friendship I’ve cherished, to end.

Sometimes, friends are our secret lovers. They don’t fail to love us even if we’re in our lowest. But sometimes too, they’re our secret enemies, ’cause when they leave us, when we lose them and when they turn their backs against us, its more than memories and time that’s lost. Its a part of our entirety that seems to be missing, that we might not even be able to regain.

All I can hope is I don’t lose any more of my friends. I hope I haven’t lost you yet. Friend.
Maybe I’m ranting now and that defies that you’re an important part of me I have and am wanting to regain.

You Oughta Know

Saturday, June 28th, 2008

This is kind of a post-turned-meme. Basically, Daniel Jr got this from Jod and then, I liked the idea so I’m posting this on both my Multiply blog and main blog located at Inghinyero.

To the Blogger:
1. Write 15 statements for fifteen different people.
2. Post this with no names of whom you dedicated your fifteen statements too.
3. If someone asks them if it is them who you’re referring to, don’t answer them.

So here are my fifteen anonymous “short dedications”…

1. Hey there. Yes, you. The one with the guitar. Ambait mo. Sobrang I appreciate it when you “try” to listen sa mga “problems” ko which I always confide to you. Hindi mo ba napapansin na palagi kong sinasabi sa iyo mga problema ko, its because I know that you’re matured enough to handle the situations and I know that you won’t forsake me sa mga alam-mo-na, katangahan ko lalo na sa lovelife.

2. Alam mo nami-miss ko ‘yung closeness natin. Lately kasi, maangas ka na at ‘di maabot. Dati, buddy-buddies pa naman tayo at magkaklase. Ngayon, medyo naiirita ako kasi parang ibang-iba ka na.

3. Alam ko namang ‘di ako ang pinangarap mong makasama nang isang semestre pero mabait naman ako. Masyado ka lang mapili at maselan. Sana naman ngayon, maging magkaibigan na tayo ng lubusan.

4. Hey. Alam mo na-aappreciate ko kung pa’no mo ako ipagtanggol kay ano. Kasi naman gags talaga ‘yun. Iba kasi kapag dati ‘di naman talaga tayo ganun ka-close. Imagine 4 years na away-bati tayo. Tapos ngayon, parang na-develop bigla friendship natin. Thanks dahil na-appreciate mo at na-understand mo ako.

5. Alam mo ‘nung nakilala kita dun sa laro, hindi kita nagustuhan masyado pero you’re more than that pala. Mabait at ate-atehan. Thanks for making me feel good kapag may love problems at pagbibigay sa’kin ng kung anu-ano para matulungan ako. You’re my online big sister, even if di mo alam :-)

6. Pare, salamat sa pagtitiwala. Alam mo na ‘yun. At ‘di ako ganun.

7. Nako, antaray mo naman. Akala ko pa naman dahil nga ngayong magkakilala tayo ay magiging “in good terms” tayo pero mukhang ayaw mo akong kaibigan.

8. Mahal kita, hanggang ngayon. Taenangshit, 6 years na. Tapos, si ano pa, nasa ano. Hindi ako nagpapakaplastik sa kanya pero tinatanggap ko na lang na mahal mo sya at ako ay wala lang sa’yo.

9. Mag-usap na tayo. Na-mimiss na kasi kita at ‘yung texts mo. Hindi ko alam kung anong gagawin ko para lang maitama ang nasabi ko sa’yo. Again, sorry na. I don’t want not to talk to the person I once …

10. Alam mo, hindi lang ikaw ang na-mimiss ko pero buong Bogeez. Miss ko na si Gee Ann at si Bodie dude.

11. I love you. Please always take care. God Bless! Ingat kayo parati diyan.

12. Alam mo dati may crush ako sa’yo kasi ang galing-galing mo sa Photoshop. But, sabi nga ng kaibigan kong magaling, hinding-hindi ka magkakagusto sa’kin kasi siya nga di nagkagusto sa’kin so ayun, dumidistansiya ako kasi baka magustuhan pa kita lalo. Shorttime lang naman ‘to. Sana ‘di mo ako makalimutan kapag sikat ka na. :-)

13. Dati, idol ko ang blog mo. Wala lang. Ang astig mo kasi. Pero ‘nung nikakausap kita ay medyo tinatamad ka atang kausap ako. Sorry ah. Ayun lang naman.

14. Alam mo palagi kong sinusubaybayan ang blog mo, ang cool mo kasi mag-write. Pero may nakapagsabi sa akin na may pagka-berde daw dugo mo, totoo ba ‘yun? Hanggang ngayon ay di ako makapaniwala.

15. Ikaw naman, minsan ka lang mabiro. Alam mo kaya ako ganyan sa’yo at tinutukso kita parati kahit patpatin ka’t lahat ay may gusto ako sa’yo. Hindi mo mahalata kasi manhid ka at gusto mo ang gusto mo na ayaw sa’yo at nagpapakatanga ka para di ‘yun makita. Argh.

About Not Being Able To Move On

Tuesday, January 29th, 2008

You have probably heard this thing before, same old… same old. I am still listening to my favorite Typecast tracks and those soundtracks that might have had pushed me to think of her again. I thought I’d already forgotten her. But in reality, she’ll always be there. And everytime I remember an ounce of something I’d recognize or something I can identify with her, there I go again.

She’s my ecstasy. The more I want to get rid her out of my system, the more I’m drowning into it. I adore her and nothing’s gonna change that. Absolutely nothing. For four years, I still can’t recover from the thoughts of she, and I, forever. When even the conclusion of this dream will always be that I can only have her as much as my dreams would allow me to.

A lot of people say I’m not that falling-in-love guy type. I don’t care. They can judge me and tell me everything they want but who cares. And the truth is that from the moment I’d realize I love her, until now, that’s the same feeling. I know its hard to believe me, but this girl knocks me off my feet. This girl is love.

You don’t know how much reading your messages mean to me and its the only thing I’ve got and you don’t even do it anymore. Its not obligatory but I want them back. Those times that we can only talk about anything and everything about our daily lives.

I got addicted with your existence and now that you’re completely gone, I’m lost. Even my friends tell me that, I have lost myself for not doing everything I can. I have lost myself from you. I felt numb that you would not even caring to know how I feel. So I stay numb and dumb and stupid.

I just feel suicidal, but I know I can survive. [Hey, I still have to take three more years of math and physics :) All those engineering thingy] I’m strong and I know that this love might have to take ages to shoo away. Maybe a whole lifetime won’t even be enough to hide this feelings, and set them aside.

I’d try to focus on attaining success first now, so that when I’m all wealthy and rich. I can do all I want and give her all that she deserves.

I just love you. I know. I just do.
And it hurts not to know if you’re okay or not.

I hope he takes care of you.

I was born to tell you I love you, I was torn to do what I have to.
To make you mine, be with me tonight.



P.S. And that’s me being stupid again. And that’s me not being able to escape from her shadows. And that’s me who’s willing to live his life alone just to hold my promise that you’re the only girl I truly love. Until my dying day. And even if you wouldn’t care, at least I held on long to my promise enough to make my life worth living. :(

The Blood-waiting Heart.

Monday, June 25th, 2007

I am like a heart pumping, waiting for the blood to flow through me.

Why does it have to be this way? Why can’t we even look at each other’s eyes? Why can’t we talk the same way as I can talk with others? Why won’t you talk to me?

Really, I am tired of waiting. But I am still here. Still waiting for you.
I am tired hoping. But I am still here. Hoping.

But it seems like even friendship won’t buy your trust. It feels like I have to give up.
But I don’t wanna do that same mistake again, to give up.

Because whatever happens, I’ll wait. And even if you’re 59 and I’m 60, I’ll still be here.

It doesn’t really matter if you feel the same way I feel. All I ask is that we talk.
And we communicate.

Its been three weeks since I hear from you. I know I shall not demand.
But what it really boils down to is that I miss you.

I really really miss you.

Ironic, you’re nearer but I still can’t reach you.
