ang tsinelas


by: http://lencabas.blogspot.com/

Tawagin mo na'kong corny, pero nung napanood
ko yung pelikula nina
Regine at Richard, eto lang
ang nasabi ko: "WISH KO LANG".

Sabi sa pelikula, ang taong para talaga sa'yo
(yung ryt one ika nga) ay
para raw TSINELAS. Di naman sinasabing
mukhang goma o balat ang hanapin
mo. Ganito kasi yan.

Maraming uri ng sapatos ang nagkalat sa
paligid - may school shoes,
rubber shoes, boots, stilettos, sandals at kung
anu-ano pa. Iba't ibang
style, iba-ibang dekorasyon. At syempre, iba-iba
din ang presyo. May
mura, may mahal. Ikaw, pag pumasok ka sa
opisina, di ba isinusuot mo ang
mamahalin mong black leather shoes (kung lalaki
ka) o yung high-heeled
sandals mo (kung babae ka)? Yun ang isinusuot
mo dahil yun ang gusto mong
ipambalandra at ipakita sa iba buong araw.

Pero at the end o f the day, kapag pagod ka na sa
maghapong trabaho.habang nasa biyahe ka na pauwi ng
bahay.ano ba'ng tatlong bagay ang
ini-imagine mo'ng gawin? 1.) Magpahinga 2.)
Kumain ng hapunan at 3.) Magbihis
ng damit-pambahay at magsuot ng tsinelas.
Tama, tsinelas!

Naisuot at naipagyabang mo na ang lahat ng
magaganda at mamahalin mong
sapatos. At maaaring marami ka na ring
napahanga dahil dito. Pero sa
bandang huli, kapag hindi mo na kailangang
magbihis ng maganda,
mag-pretend ng kahit na ano, nasa bahay na lang,
walang make-up at ikaw ay ikaw
na lang talaga, di ba't ang simpleng tsinelas pa
rin ang
hahanap-hanapin mo? At wala ka nang pakialam
kung may tatak man ito, mamahalin o may
kung anu-anong burloloy.basta ang alam mo,
tsinelas ang gusto mo.


Sa buhay mo, marami kang makikilalang babae
at lalake. Maganda, Gwapo,
Sexy (pang-FHM), Mayaman, Malakas ang dating,
Hanep ang porma, lahat
na. Pero sa bandang huli, pareho nating alam na
hindi yun ang
pinakamahalagang ingredient ng tunay na
pagmamahal. Kumportable ka ba sa taong
'to? Does he/she make you feel good about
yourself? May kakaiba bang
'warmth' na ibinibigay ang taong 'to, na parang
nagsasabi sa'yong 'you're
home and safe at last'? Does this person make
you happy? Tinatanggap ka
ba niya kahit 'pambahay' na lang ang hitsura mo?
Siya ba ang tipo ng
taong alam mong makikinig kapag nire-report at
ikinukwento mo na ang mga
nangyari sa'yo buong araw? Think about it.

I'd be a lying asshole kapag sinabi kong

aesthetics do not count. Pero
ang puso, tumitibok yan sa mga di inaasahang
pagkakataon. And sometimes
you wonder about it, and most of the time, you
even deny it. But deep
down, you just know, and feel, that it's right.

Ito ay para sa mga taong nakahanap na, at
naghahanap pa rin ng tsinelas
nila. Congratulations at Good Luck! Nawa'y
nakatulong ang obserbasyon
kong ito, salamat sa pagbabasa. Happy hunting!

" People may be unkind, just be kind. They may CHEAT just be HONEST. They may forget your good deeds, just do GOOD. In the end, its between YOU and GOD, NOT YOU AND THEM. God Bless.

my favorite books

Thursday, March 1, 2007

Back in highschool, I had this particular... uhm... fondness(?) with the works of Christopher Pike, which real name is Kevin Christopher McFadden. Up to now, I still don't know anything about this writer.
Well, it was my cousin Ging who introduced me to the world of reading gory, mystery, supernatural, thriller, spine-chilling and the likes literatures - thanks to you cuz for the sleepless nights and wild imagination I now have, nevertheless - I love you! Anyway, I just want her to know that - and one more! I miss her, I always do kahit we're not that super connect now. Hehehe... we'll work on that someday. We should.
Back to my topic. I have surfed the net about him just recently but still nothing come out of him Well, I really haven't made an effort to reach or even write him a letter anyway so maybe that's why I never had an inkling about him - yeah, right! Maybe I should! asus, nano man ko man?! Question is, will he write back? The man's a millionaire with lots of grammars, punctuations, subjects, predicates, verbs, nouns, adverbs, adjectives, etc. going about in his head for another book. He might be busy. Hehehe... here I am talking to myself - because no one would talk to me - not even my beh because he don't know a thing about him or even interested in reading one.
If anyone can read this and know something about this writer, could you please prove his existence?! hehehe... joke!
Books I've read that of C. Pike's: bury me deep, die softly, eternal enemy, fall into darkness, gimme a kiss, the immortal, last act, the lost mind, monster, road to nowhere, scavenger's hunt, sati, see you later, spellbound, the star group, the starlight crystal, whisper of death, the wicked heart, witch, the final friends trilogy (courtesy of ewa, my busmate and classmate for a while) and finally, remember me and the midnight club as my favorites.
Actually, I've read these all so long ago and would like to read it all again to see if my preferences or what I think about his books change. I am now for Dean Koontz, Patricia Cornwell, Harlan Coben, uhm... I also read romantic novel like that of Danielle Steele and the likes.
Lastly, the book that everyone should read is the book of the Bible. Oh no, I don't want to sound so goody goody here or anything 'coz I'm not. Honestly, I've read the whole book the first time and just remember things like that of the stories of Moses, Joseph, David, Solomon, when Jesus was born and risen, and some important points I apply in my life. It really has interesting stories to tell and teach to all of us. God is the greatest author of all, anyway. He is the author of the whole wide universe. The author of our faith.
