LOOKS can be DECEIVING.

Bakit kaya lahat ng naturingang gwapo eh masasama ang ugali? Well, not naman lahat, most of lang. Actually hindi naman talaga ako after the looks of someone pero di mo rin maiiwasan na yun yung makita kase yun talaga ang unang-unang mong makikita at unang-una mong mapapansin. Nakakapanghinayang lang talaga kung malalaman mo na may tinatago palang "yabang" sa katawan ang taong yun. At ang tanging masasabi mo na lang ay " sayang, gwapo pa naman" Di ba? Mabibilang na lang talaga sa mundo ang mga gwapong may magandang ugali at bihira na talaga ang ganun sa ngayon. Nakakalungkot isipin pero totoo. Yun lang naman po ay opinyon ko. At tulad ng sabi nila lahat ng opinyon ay tama, at walang makaka-question sa opinyon mo dahil opinyon mo yun. Wala lang. Yun lang.

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

teardrops on my guitar

Teardrops on my Guitar

Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see

That I want and I'm needing everything that we should be

I'll bet she's beautiful, that girl he talks about

And she's got everything that I have to live without

Drew talks to me, I laugh cause it's just so funny

That I can't even see anyone when he's with me

He says he's so in love, he's finally got it right,

I wonder if he knows he's all I think about at night

[Chorus:]

He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar

The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star

He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do

Drew walks by me, can he tell that I can't breathe?

And there he goes, so perfectly,

The kind of flawless I wish I could be

She'd better hold him tight, give him all her love

Look in those beautiful eyes and know she's lucky cause

[Repeat Chorus]

So I drive home alone, as I turn out the light

I'll put his picture down and maybe

Get some sleep tonight

He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar

The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart

He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do

He's the time taken up, but there's never enough

And he's all that I need to fall into..

Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see

Guys! Guys!

February 7,2008. I was waiting for this day to come – I’ve been counting the days in fact. This is the day that Callalily would be playing for our student’s night.

The day started with me thinking what would be the color of the shirt that I’ll be wearing for that day – either black or red. After a long time of thinking I’ve decided to wear red after all. But for fun of it I still brought my black shirt with me. In case I changed my mind in the future.

The day started with me watching the basketball game of the TIP Engineers against those ex-varsities called TIP Rangers. I became really fond of them starting the day that I’ve watched their first game against EAC Generals. Since then, I just can’t get them out of my head. Gosh! They’re driving me crazy! Well not all of the basketball members really just some of them. It was not really disappointing that they lost because it was just an exhibition game and it was not against another school after all.

The game finished and still I feel like it was years before 7:00 p.m. (the time that the concert would start)

The varsities started to practice for their game after that day. I was able to see some of those guys that really got me going crazy and somehow waiting there seems worth it after all.

I don’t know why but I should have gone watching their practice but somehow I really felt nervous that I felt like I would fall into pieces if I did go and watch.

I was really bored, waiting, waiting and still waiting.

3 hours….
2 hours….
1 hour….
30 minutes….

The venue started to open for the audiences and people started to fill the place.

3 minutes…
But still no sign of Callalily.
No sign of Kian.

The school’s band started to play. I’m not saying that they are not playing well. It’s just that I was looking for something else. Waiting for someone else.

Songs were sung.
Instruments were played.
Vocalists have gone wild.

Finally, they came.

The people started to scream especially the girls (proud to say I’m one of them). Then Kian reached the stage and started to sing. His voice was really music to my ear. All I can say was “Grabe, ang cute mo!”, “Ang puti-puti mo!”, “Ang chubby mo but still you’re so cute!”.

The best part there was when he started to sing, “Right here waiting” with no background music! How I wish he were singing it for me. (But nah, that’s for Danita!) The crowd started to sing with him and I started to sing with him. Obviously it was for Danita because it was later that he started to sing Danita’s “Lunod”. That was when the crowd shouted and teased him!

Actually I was supposed to be at the very front of the stage but unfortunately for some reason so many people started to go in front and all we can do was to go to the back so we can breath freely. The concert was not that crowded but still if you put too much people so close to each other you started to get suffocated! Haha.

Somehow I was glad I didn’t go there in front of the stage. After they played their last song all I thought was that it was over- the concert’s over. Kian is going home. But never in my dreams have I thought that I would have the chance to hold Kian’s hand! It was like nobody else was seeing him as he exited. He was leaving the place when I reached my hand to him and he grab it and said, “Salamat!” Gosh! I could die there and then! I even have the thought to never wash my hand but that would really be impossible. All I know is that “nakadaupang-palad” ko si Kian ng Callalily. Thanks to God!
