BUNINAY

While you're reading this, I'm probably finalizing my luggage, boarding the plane, already there, or still at home reminiscing. I've enumerated these things not to remind myself of the things that I will be missing but to give myself something to look forward to when I get back. Please note that there's no particular order for this list, I'm writing whatever comes into my mind. (This list was supposed to be discontinued and deleted because writing all these things brings me to tears but then I've changed my mind, thanks to blogger's auto-save feat.haha!) candle-lighting at the Redemptorist chapel (which I do every Wednesday or whenever I visit) tricyle-ride to the office (with all the cramming and running because I might be late) adobong Carandang (the best of the best!=9) crossing the two creepy little bridges (no hands!) Mulawin pan de sal every afternoon (c/o Jepoy ) overtime with Kat & Meanne malling with Judee , or with Beybi and Tep...

Ilang araw na lang ang nalalabi at pansamantagal na'kong mawawalay sa'king bayang sinilangan. Hindi ako sanay sa ganitong sitwasyon.

Sa puntong ito, hindi ko alam kung ano ba ang mga dapat kong maramdaman. Wala nang isang linggo at ako'y tuluyang lilipad na patungo sa bayang napakaiba at malayo sa Pinas. Pasalamat na din lang at kahit pano'y nakakapag-Ingles naman ako at hindi na nangangailangang lubusang pag-aralan ang wika nila. Nakakasabik ba? Oo naman! Lalo pa...

What is FAITH ? From thefreedictionary , I've read that faith is a confident belief in the truth, value or trustworthiness of a person, idea, or thing. So, what are fate and faith for me? I have no particular connotation nor definition for these two, but I strongly believe in the reality of these mighty words. -oOo- This day last year, I was at a bookstore. I was probably sort of losing my senses that time because I was at my lowest. But then, through browsing some books, I'd read a few lines from one that made me really have faith in something and someone. And the reading goes , SOULMATES are two separate souls who promised to be together in some pro...
