First the good news, I get to stay home today after all and celebrate New Years Eve with Jenny and Ethan. Now the bad news, the reason is because I have flu and my joints are aching and I feel cold. O sige pwede na rin, basta ba andito ako sa house pag dating ng 2007.

Happy New Year World!

My New Year’s message I borrowed from Manong. Habang ako ay nag ka kape during my luncbreak at hilong hilo dahil nga meron akong flu (oo na ma arte ka!)

Why celebrate Christmas and New Year just once a year when we can celebrate them everyday, start a new life any day, help someone in need anyday, send someone something special any day.

Dare To Be Different WXB

I haven’t been blogging lately because I was too busy looking for rare New Wave songs but now the search is over!!!!!! Bhah hah hah hah!

Ilang oras ko lang naman pinag chagaan I download ang mga ito kaya enjoy na ako sa fruits of my labor.

A Taste of Love – Den Harrow
I first heard of this song when I was in grade four, Imagine hah, grade four pa ako nun tapos sa amin matititining na boses, sabay sabay namin itong kinakanta ng mga barkada ko habang naglalaro ng He-man.

The Bridge – Cactus World News
Ive searched for this album in every record store here in Auckland kaso wala talaga finally lumabas din sha sa bago kong pirate machine, he he he

Total Recall – The Sound
We used to cover this song nung ako ay may band pa,galng melody ng song na ito at pati na rin ang message.

From Across the Kitchen Table – Pale Fountains
One of the two songs I liked from Pale Fountains. The other one is “Thank You” which is included in their best of cd but this song is not.Thanks again to my new pirate machince

Ink and Paper – Modern English
Like P.Fountains this song is not included in their best of cd but the song “Melt with You” is.

So there, these are the last songs that I was looking for. Maybe I can take a break from being a pirate for a while and just enjoy and reminisce the days when I was in black.

Christmas Tales 2



Sa Christmas party nila Ethan,...

Chikiting 1: So whos gonna play Santa?

Chikiting 2: I think it's my Dad.



Iba na talaga ang kabataan ngayon, tila hindi na sila nuuto tungkol sa mga Santa Santa na yan, mashado na atang maaga sila mag mature. Tulad na lang nung umuwi kami at nakita ko ang curiculum ng aking pamangkin. WTF! meron silang geometry at human evolution! Wow! nung kasing edad ko sha ni hindi ko man lang mapronounce at ma spell ang isosceles (di ko nga sure ang spelling ko) mesozoic, jurasic at kung ano ano pang ic ic period na yan. Sana kahit papano ay naniniwala parin sila sa magic ng Christmas at ang tutuong meaning nito at hindi lang puro material na bagay at regalo ang nasa isip nila.

Miss ko tuloy nung ako ay bata pa at nangangoling kami at tuwa na kami sa nakakuwa namin na isang daan buong gabi, miss ko rin ang nagsisimbang gabi kahit na papasok pa ako sa skwela nung elementaty pa. Paniwalang paniwala pa ako nun sa Santa at sa mga Reindeers. Anyway, Merry Christmas kids!

Christmas Tales

Hah?! Christmas na pala…

Finally we decided to put up a Christmas tree. Ewan ko bah, nabangit ko naman na Christmas here in NZ is soooooooooooo sooooooooo boooooorrrrriiiiing., three years have past and Christmas 06 is really shooting up the charts. I don’t know, maybe because we already had Christmas last October. Buti na lang October palang eh nagpapatugtog na ng Christmas songs sa mall sa Pinas at ang bahay namin dun ay meron nang Christmas décor.

But we have to.

We have to have a Christmas tree for Ethan to see, we have to give Ethan the Christmas spirit he deserves kahit na konti, kahit na hindi katulad ng Christmas spirit sa Pinas ang Christmas spirit dito (kung meron man) spirit ng alak meron….

Simbang gabi na naman jan sa mga tiga Pinas! Ikain nyo na lang ako ng bibingka at puto bumbong.

Another time, another time
Oh there must be a hole in your memory
But I can see
I can see a distant victory
A time when you will be with me...

It's all such a blur when time goes so quickly
Trying to hang on to
The way that you'd like things to stay

You trace back the seconds
Recall the details
From someone will, to someone does
To someone did, you know I did

Oh there must be a hole in your memory
But I can see
I can see a distant victory
A time when you will be with me

You cut me off just as I was starting to speak
The language you keep hidden away
It's just like the question on everyone's lips

But it's not on mine
Where all you'll find is a twisted smile
From another time

Another time, another time
Oh there must be a hole in your memory
But I can see
I can see a distant victory
A time when you will be with me...

Another time, another time
Oh there must be a hole in your memory
But I can see
I can see a distant victory
A time when you will be with me

There'd be another time, another time
Oh there must be a hole in your memory
But I can see
I can see a distant victory
A time when you will be with me

I can see but there's got to be another time
It's got to be...

Chamber of Hellos

And of course hellos are always followed by goodbyes.

Nung pumunta si Mom sa heaven shempre malungkot ang pag alis namin yet nung huling uwi namin sabi ko kay Jeng, “This time hindi malungkot ang pag alis natin.”

Well, I was wrong. Tulad parin nung dati hindi naiwasan ang malungkot na pag hihiwalayan. Bakit? Dahil siguro first time ulit namin silang nakasama since nawala si Mom, si Ethan ma mi-miss nila, sa side naman nila Jeng minsan lang ulit sila nakumpletong magkakapatid.

Yan ang hirap sa hellos ano po?, palaging may karugtong na goodbyes.

I’m looking forward to our next bakashon, hindi na siguro maiiwasan ang ganung ending unless sabi ko nga kay Jeng at kay Dad, once nanaginip ako, in my dreams ang mga tao na sa Pinas ang nagsasabing wag daw kami uwi nang uwi at sila na ang nanghihinayang sa pamasahe, how funny but of course I wish it will come true.

Ngayon pa lang nag iimagine na kami sa next namin uwi. Iniwan ko nga ang iba kong clothes and things gagamitin ko sa next uwi namin.
