Pesteng Pag-ibig

Masakit talaga ang magmahal. Ewan ko ba kung bakit ganu’n. Magmahal para masaktan lang. Mahirap na masakit. Hindi mo alam kung hanggang kailan mo titiisin ang sakit.Basta masakit. Kung may magagawa lang sana para mapawi ang sakit nararamdaman ,kaya lang wala eh. Suntok sa buwan ang mahalin ka ng taong mahal mo.Umaasa ka sa wala. Umiibig ka para sa wala. Magmamahal ka para balewalain lang. Grabe ang sakit ng magmahal na alam mong ang mundo man ay magugunaw ay wala pa ring mangyayari.

Bakit ba kasi may pag-ibig pa? Kung matuturuan lang sana ang puso. Kung may kapangyarian ka lang sanang gawing posible ang mga imposible. Pero imposible talaga eh. ‘Yon yong masakit. Alam mong imposible maging kayo eh nagmamahal ka pa rin at umaasa na maging kayo sa bandang huli. Mahirap ‘yong mag-invest ng emotion tapos sa bandang huli ay mapupunta lang sa wala. Walang patutunguhan ang magmahal ka ng taong may mahal na iba. Sana matuturuan ang puso, pero hindi eh.

Hindi kayang diktahan ng isip ng puso dahil ang puso ay may sariling isip. Hindi mo mapipilit na mahalin ka rin ng taong mahal mo. Bakit ganu’n? Hindi mo naman ginusto na mahalin siya. Bigla na lang. Bakit ka ba iibig sa taong alam mong walang pag-ibig sa’yo di ba? Walang pinipili kasi ang pag-ibig. Pwede kang main-love kahit kanino. Mahal mo siya. Pero hindi ka naman niya mahal, hindi kayang mahalin,hindi matutunang mahalin at hindi kailanman mamahalin. Ang sakit, di ba? Maraming nasasaktan dahil sa pag-ibig.

Pesteng pag-ibig na ‘yan!

I lost my CP

Kawawa talaga 'yong cellphone ko.

Bakit? Kasi nawalay siya sa akin. Nawala siya eh. Hindi ko man lang alam kung paano nawala, basta nawala na lang ng biglaan. Wala na!On way to Makati, gabi 'yon, sa jeep, pagkababa ko sa may Ayala avenue, magta-time check sana ako kaya lang wala na CP ko sa bulsa ko.I was pretty sure then na sa bulsa ko lang 'yon inilagay. Pero wala eh. Wala talaga. Nalungkot ako siyempre. Pero owkie lang. Bili na lang ako ng new.Kahit Nokia 7650 lang 'yon pero may sentimental value 'yon. Binili ko pa 'yon gamit ang 13th month pay ko when I was a teacher. 9 months ko lang nagamit 'yon. Kaya, naawa talaga ako sa CP ko.

Sana napunta siya sa mabait na tao like me.

One More Chance

One boring afternoon,after I woke up from a deep good sleep, I received a text message from my housemate, Andrea informing me that they’ll be going to SM to watch a movie. I didn’t give even a damn care so, I headed my way to Nepa st. to buy some food and drinks.After I ate, to freshen myself, I took a bath to be ready for work. Andrea sent me a text message confirming if I could join them. Well, at first, I wasn’t interested to come for no reasonable reason at all. But with a sudden twist, I decided to go to SM San Lazaro.

At SM San Lazaro Cinema 5, we watched the movie entitled:”One More Chance” starred by Bea Alonzo and John Lloyd Cruz.

I like the story. It’s a love story, of course. Nakakakilig! Nakakaiyak! Nakakainis!

Here is the synopsis of One More Chance taken from the Philippine Entertainment Portal:

Popoy (John Lloyd Cruz) and Basha (Bea Alonzo) have been together forever.Their love story started when they met as students in a university.Popoy was taking up Engineering while Basha was a freshman in Architecture. They have been inseparable ever since-they did everything together: eating,studying and/or attending parties. Their families loved them,they shared friends,they eventually worked in the same firm and their life plans revolved around each other.There is no Popoy without Bashaa and vice versa. In short, they are certain that they would get married someday and build a home together-literally and figuratively. Architect Basha will design and plan their dream house while Engineer Popoy will be the one to build it.

Everything is perfect.At least that is what Popoy thinks.But all the planning and dreaming eventually take toll on Basha. tired of trying to carve her own mark in the firm where they are both working,she suddenly tells him that she wants to resign and move to a smaller firm where she can be given a bigger chance to design on her own. Popoy is alarmed by Basha’s sudden decision. Basha tells him the problem that has beeb brewing inside her for the past year, the real reason why she wants to leave their company-she is tired of Popoy and their relationship. She feels that Popoy is all over her and that she hasn’t been given the opportunity to decide and plan for herself because Popoy already did everything.Popoy is speechless. Inside, he is devastated. That same night, Basha asks for a breakup.She tells him she needs the space to grow-on her own.Not knowing how to pick himself up after the love of his life leaves him, Popoy stuggles to live his new life alone. Meanwhile, Basha resigns and transfers to a smaller firm where she begins to feel the freedom she’s been longing for.

Popoy and Basha try to live without each other but the ties that bind them make it harder for both to move on. Their families and friends became constant reminders of the promises and dreams they had during their happier days.Slowly, Popoy learns to pick up the pieces and discovers a life that he can call his own. But Basha’s journey proves to be more difficult, especially when she sees Popoy starting to date other girls. A part of her wants to get him back but a part also knows that she was the one who asked for this.Opportunity knocks when Popoy’s aunt commissions them to buid her house together. After feeling awkward around each other,Popoy and Basha eventually warm up.

After all, five years of being together is hard to erase. Slowly and unconciously, they fall into their old routines and find themselves enjoying each other’s company once again. Both realize how much they’ve missed each other yet both also recognize how much they’ve changed.But Popoy knows too well that giving in would mean going back to how they were before. And he’s way too scared to get in the way of Basha’s growth once again, especially now that he has seen that she can do it alone.
