Writing and Laundry

I have never imagined my “talent” for writing can be used to wash clothes! This is a breakthrough!

Here is how it happened: My sister must do a welcome speech for their seminar but is doubtful as to her capacity to make a good one. So, she asked for my helping hands.

You guessed it right. I traded the laundry for the speech. Brilliant isn’t it? To make things interesting, I asked her to wash my bed sheets! I have no problem washing my white uniforms, you know.

It’s a give and take relationship. 😀

Oh well, I was supposed to post the speech but since my sister won’t allow me, I’ll end it up here.

I hope she needs more paper works to write. My jeans and shorts has been in the hamper for quite some time now. 😉

Bakit Single ka?

Malapit na naman ang pasko (97 days nalang!). Miyembro ka pa rin ng SMP (Samahan ng Malalamig ang Pasko). Wala kang kayakap kundi ang unan mong nangangamoy laway.

Base sa aking survey [gm sa text na mabibilang lang ang nagreply], narito ang iilan sa common reasons kung bakit nananatiling single ang isang tao.

1. TRIP LANG

Being single is a choice daw. Trip trip lang. Ayaw lang nya talaga magkarelasyon. May angal?

2. TORPE (for boys)

Single ka dahil may minamahal ka na hindi alam ang nararamdaman mo. Paalala:  “paano kayo magiging TOGETHER, kung hindi ka gagawa ng paraan TO-GET-HER.” [napulot ko lang din to kung saan]

3. WALANG NANLILIGAW (for girls)

Maganda. Sexy. May trabaho. Mabait. Nasa kanya na lahat. hmmm She couldn’t have it all: zero ang lovelife.

Siguro intimidated lang ang mga lalaki. Baka may ibang reason. [may BO or anything]. Advice ko: ikaw na ang manligaw! haha On a serious note, true love waits. Hintay hintay din. Tiwala lang. On the meantime, make yourself lovable. Show your lovable side.

 

4. STRICT ANG PARENTS

 

Weh? Ay sus! Wala yan sa kung gaano ka strikto ang parents! Kadalasan pa nga kung sino yung strikto masyado ang parents, siyang nagrerebelde. Nasa sa’yo lang talaga yan. Ikaw mismo ang ayaw ng karelasyon. Mabuti yan, mabait na bata. Ipagpatuloy ang pag-aaral.

 

5. PLAYER

 

Isa sa mga reasons kung bakit single ka ay dahil you don’t like commitments. Fling lang lahat. Be careful though. You play with fire. Chances are, you’ll get burned. [ang lalim!]

 

6. CHOOSY

Ang daming criteria. Maraming requirements. Ang ending: walang pumapasa. Tandaan: don’t look for the PERFECT person, time, place, or whatsoever; instead, love someone that would make you feel PERFECT.

7. STUCK IN THE PAST

From a relationship which ended badly. You fell in love, fell really bad that you got hurt so much. MOVE ON! You know you deserve better than that.

8. CHAKA

uhm, Belo you like? hehehe joke lang.

Sa totoo, magpakabait ka. Kung hindi ka talaga gaano kaganda/gwapo, bumawi ka nalang sa ibang aspeto. Magsipag. Magpakabait. Be caring. Hindi yung hindi na nga maganda ang mukha, pangit pa ang ugali. Darating din yung taong makakakita sa “the beauty in you”. [ipatanggal mo yung eyeglasses nila. :p]

9. HOPELESS ROMANTIC

Palagi kang nasa teleserye. Yung karakter na “inlab sa tao na inlab sa iba”, o di kaya “inlab sa taong kaibigan lang ang turing sa’yo”, or kapag part ka sa love triangle, at hindi ikaw ang pinili. Mga sawi sa pag-ibig. Mapait. tsk.tsk.tsk. Gayunpaman, life goes on.

_____________________

May kanya-kanya tayong mga reasons kung bakit single pa tayo. Hindi minamadali ang pag-ibig. Pwedeng hintayin, pwedeng hanapin. Ang totoo, nasa paligid natin ito. Nasa mga simpleng bagay. Matagal man itong dumating, pwede mo namang salubungin kung atat ka. 🙂

lakas maka emo!

Ikaw, bakit single ka?

Rebound

When things got shaky

When the ball game has gone crazy

When the fun is now agony

When all you need is empathy

 

Here I am by your side

Still a friend to confide

All the worries you hide

Until all the bitterness subsides

 

Keeping you safe and sound

Offering you a stable ground

I’ll be here until you found

Yourself again, ready for new bounds

 

I’ll be happy as a bee

Tasting sweet honey

From a flower on a tree

All my days will be glee

 

Though this might be short-lived

For the time being, I’ll be pleased

For the chance, the situation offered

I’m with you, that’s all that mattered
