... which is something that I never really knew 'til last night.
Well, well, well...
I guess I'm a natural!
or not!
I was on this bus from Bulacan and I had to alight at Philcoa. One of the reasons why people take buses would be because they are "sometimes" a cheaper and faster way of transportation. I chose it over the jeepney because in comparison, I would be more relaxed riding on a bus.
I did my usual "bus routine", observing other people on the streets, people in the bus, thinking of stuff until there I was at my destination- Philcoa. I was wearing some thing casual with my "booties". I try to "walk away" from the "shirt-jeans-slippers/rubber shoes get up every once in a while. The bus was, as expected, accelerating and I thought there won't be any problems, all that I had to do was make sure my stuff were secured, my right hand was on my chest just to avoid "accidents" and that I was holding on to the rails. I do this all the time, there's nothing to it! I stood up from where I sat which was just 3 rows from the bus door and was taking my time to get just the right balance. I held on to the rails, the ones by the bus ceiling and just when I was about to get it right, it hit me!
Yes, I do this all the time but something felt wrong and I suddenly realized that I missed something.
I DON'T USUALLY ALIGHT ACCELERATING BUSES IN MY 3-INCH BOOTIES!!!
(just for clarification for some men, booties would be small boots, NOTHING ELSE... in this context at least)
The bus, ironically, accelarated more which caused me to lose my balance and move further to the bus door. It was a good thing that my reflexive response caused me to use my right hand and arm hold on to the pole by the bus door.
YET... IT WASN'T ENOUGH!!!
I am not exaggerating this but the other problem was, the brilliant bus driver already openned the freaking bus door while the bus was in acceleration.
WHAT WAS I TO DO?
I had to stretch my left hand to the pole, HOLDING ON TO DEAR LIFE!!!
Hmmm...
Just to share this experience, imagine yourself trying to hold on to the bus pole just beside the bus door with your both hands while making sure that your shoulder bag was safely tuck in, your cleavage doesn't pop out, you don't break your heels on an accelerating bus with an open door with the view of the concrete pavement, the feel of the wind from outside and everything else just flashing around you- not to mention the thought of knowing that everybody in the bus was UNFORTUNATELY a big fan of totoy bato and that everybody was glued to the TV and all of a sudden, they were glued to your "pole dance"!
How does that feel?
As the law goes, everything that moves has to stop one way or another. The sad truth is that this "pole dance" wasn't an exemption. The bus went to a sudden hault therefore tossing me by inertia. I was holding on to the pole and with all the mixed emotions, I kept holding on to it and as you could and would imagine it, I went into a twirl on my way down the bus.
What did I do the whole time?
CLOSED MY EYES AND PRAYED not just because I am holding on to that pole but because I prayed that nobody knew me on that bus and I closed my eyes so hard that I would not see their laughing faces at my "act".
OMG! bwahahahah!!!
I bet if everything was on video, I'd kick Katrina's scandal in the @$$ SO HARD!!!
ROFL!!! (sighs)
Who said my life was boring!?!?!?
kisses!

 Just minutes ago, I was practicing a bit on my violin and Gabby/Utoy, my nephew, was so amazed (I'm not good but being a 3-year old, he appreciated small stuff like that.)
We were teaching him small things before bed time.
Myka said "Utoy, ano'ng tawag mo diyan?" ("Utoy, what do you call that?")
Gabby stares at us with this pockerface.
I looked at him while I was putting my violin back in the case.
"violin..."
Myka looked at Utoy, "sige nga sabihin mo nga violin..." ("go ahead and try saying violin")
Gabby being witty with his glowing eyes repeated, "violin!"
I knew he had a speech issue with s's so I tried making fun of him.
"Sige nga, ano tawag 'pag maraming violin?" ("go ahead, how about when there's more than one?")
(I expected too much from him and thought he'd get the answer right.)
At the top of his lungs, he shouted,
"VIOLIN! VIOLIN! VIOLIN!"
We burst into laughter and I said,
"Pag maraming violin, magdadagdag ng 's' " ("for the plural form of violin, just add 's')
He looked at me, trying to absorb everything.
After a few seconds, I tried him...
"Oh anong tawag 'pag maraming violin?" ("How do you call when there's more than 1 violin?")
"Magdadagdag ng 's'!" ("add 's')
"Sige nga?! PANO?" ("go ahead, how?!)
"S VIOLIN!!!"
"bwahahaha!"
Kids... they never run out of charm!!!
I went to the Meiday gig last Saturday night and while I was enjoying myself to the beat of the music, just standing next to jona, out of nowhere stumbles this guy.
So what? And you ask so what?
Well he just spilled his beer on my right hand and foot!
Well, I thought to myself,
"Zin this is a party, you can't hate him for the accident, you can still wipe it off anyway"
Then, there I was, very nice and all.
He goes, "I'm so sorry!"
"Oh it's ok! it's not a problem!"
"I set it up with my friend just so I can buy you a drink, can I buy you a drink?"
-> The thing is, I don't drink and I was looking for something to say...
"Uuuuuuhhhhh..."
"JUST KIDDING! But yeah, I really wanted to buy you a drink!"
-> and again I was speechless!
"Uuuuuuuhhhh..."
"Can I buy you a drink?"
"Uuuuuuuhhhh..."
"Oh I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! But I really wanted to buy you a drink"
-> I was just staring at him. At the back of my head...
"EH KUNG PINAGSASALITA MO KAYA AKO!!! HELLER!?" ("how about giving me the chance to say some thing?")
I guess a spark of soberness shone on him and then there he goes walking away! He didn't even give me the chance to say something other than just give him a dumbfounded reaction!
I was staring at Jona, all puzzled. It was funny!
It didn't end there...
Jona and I were walking around the expo when a guy suddenly pointed at me and shouted,
"OI!!!"
and I'm like holding on Jona tightly!
popping out of my head was a cloud...
"WHO THE HECK IS HE!?!"
HAHAHA!!!
-> I don't know him, he knows me... or maybe it's the alcohol! HAHAHA
It seems like people had so much beer and I'm just a naive lady who gets mistaken for someone else...
STILL!
I FREAKING HAD FUN!!!
This past week, a lot of realizations have dawned on me. These are factual stuff that make me appreciate life and love more and I know you'll agree with me on these.
1 a full sleep is more than a gift, it's a jewel
2 long-term relationships are usually not successful
3 facebook is addictive, friendster is the thing of the past
4 no matter how dirty a beach is, nature is still nature and it's relaxing
5 swimming is a skill
6 kids are cute no mater how naughty they are
7 beauty is not defined by physical appearance, it's from within
8 most of the time, men think of women as "objects"
9 women are more mature than men
10 long distance relationships don't last "long"
11 if you want to hurt your eyes, swim at the beach without goggles
12 you'll always miss that someone
13 the people who tell you that they'll never leave you will be the ones who'll walk out on you first
14 when your ex sees that you're enjoying life without him, he'll come running back to you only to leave you even more hurt
15 shoes have hypnotic elements
16 no matter how tired a lady is, if she's pretty, she'll stay pretty
17 everybody deserves to be happy
18 the only person who can fool you is yourself
19 pride should only be carried in the office but never through love matters
20 laughter is the best cure
21 real friends are those who stay your friends no matter what and how far they are
22 feel beautiful to look beautiful
23 when a guy says he's busy, he's not interested
24 there will always be "bad" people but even so, they are still "human"
25 if you want to cry, just cry your heart out- you'll eventually get tired of it
26 if he left you, it just means he's not good enough for you
27 women who steal men from other women deserve more and shouldn't settle for less
28 if he doesn't love you anymore, have some dignity and love yourself more
29 life is beautiful so when you feel like taking your own, think of the good times
30 love is overrated
31 failure is normal. cut yourself some slack
32 you can be whoever you want to be and whenever you want to be
33 traveling makes the heart grow fonder
34 eat, live, and love. nobody can stop you
35 insecurities are normal. use them to make yourself better
36 pictures always tell stories
37 pretzels dipped in melted chocolate are grand
38 there are as_ho_es all around, just live with them
39 god will never leave us alone.
40 when a person hates you, love them. if they hate you more, love them harder. if they hate you more than more, love them even harder.
Just a few days ago, I was so excited to attend my friend's wedding since it will be the first time ever (not including my lola's golden wedding anniv) that I will march down the aisle as a bridesmaid.
I have been so excited weeks before and had planned EVERYTHING!!! as perfect as it would be!
Here was the original plan (the wedding is at 10:30- MALATE church) -and I live in QC :P
* 6am- get up, get ready and get my hair fixed by 7, then my make up
* 7am- done with getting hair fixed proceed to make up
* 8am- get a cab, call dee (my ever trustworthy buddy- she's my date hahaha) for the meetup
* 9:30am- getting ready at the church, helping people out, taking pics waiting for the bride
sounds perfect?
Here's how everything TURNED OUT
* 8:30am- lola went storming in the room asking me what time i should be up cause it's already 8:30 am!
* 8:35am- I was panicking because I was way behind schedule!!! and called dee up, got ready
* 9am- Oh yeah! I got ready too fast!!! my hair was a mess! I told manang to get me a cab
* 9:30am- "walang taxi zindy eh..." ("zindy, there's no taxi around") -> MANANG YOU SHOULD HAVE TOLD ME THAT 30 mins ago!!! (of course I didn't tell her that, I almost did though :P)
* 9:35am- I took a jeep ride IN MY GOWN!!! good thing my blazer was ready! of course I wore it but still, the dress part of the gown (whachamacallthat!) was all swaying and all in the jeep!!! PLUS! I didn't have make up on yet!!!
* 9:37am- it was then I realize that I FORGOT MY PURSE IN MY BACKPACK!!! I know!!! good thing I had my atm card in handy!!!
* 9:40am- I was frantically speaking with dee on my phone. I was telling her that everything was a disaster! I can't find a cab, I got on a jeep in my gown! I forgot my purse! and again I can't get a cab!!! all that she said was... "chill"---> how am i supposed to chill dee?!?!?! I AM GOING TO BLOG ABOUT THIS DEE!!! I AM!!!
* 9:50am- I finally got a cab and picked dee up along conggressional intersection. now... the gruesome part... getting to MALATE before 10:30 at least!!!
* 10:05am- We were putting make up on and I was ranting about how everything I planned was ruined because I slepf and my alarm was bad and all blah blah blah
* 10:28am- We were still in Quiapo and I was hoping that the 10:30 start of the wedding is all a joke and it really would start at 11am (OF COURSE it didn't happen!- I was trying to make myself feel better!) and dee? she was just looking at me, laughing at my tantrum moment! :P
* 10:43am- We were somewhere by Manila city hall and dee was ranting about her hunger. We bought barquillos from the street vendor while stuck in traffic and while we were buying, THE TRAFFIC STARTED MOVING!!! i didn't have 50's in my bag, only hundreds from the atm. the driver got so stressed that he lent us 50 bucks just so we can move on.
* 10:55am- I was telling dee and the driver how dead I was going to be when I get there since I am so late!!!
* 10:58am- We get to the church and guess what? IT STARTED RAINING! good thing we were already inside! I checked and I knew I was too late but a lady from the pews behind whispered that they have just started. We went inside and sneaked in to get to the pews behind. all my fatigue just went away when I saw karen marching to the altar. I just saw her back then but she was so pretty!!! (as always)
I got to my seat and the relatives were smiling at me. I was so ashamed! I still got the courage to smile back though. I sat beside Blanca and I told her how the traffic was really bad and she understood it. Just when I was getting the mood for a wedding and all teary- eyed, I was staring at this cute baby, Jamie, who sat behind us. She looked so cute in her flower girl gown!!! Then all of a sudden...
"VEIL DAW!!! VEIL NA DAW!!!" (it's the veil's turn!!!)
I looked at them with all wondering and said, "huh?!?!"
Blanca gave me a nudge and said, "VEIL NA DAW! IKAW YUN!" (it's the veil's part, that's you!!!)
With all shock and a thumping heart, I suddenly stood up, looked to the right to check on my partner (who was all so relaxed by the way), and breathed in to gather all my pieces. I did good anyway and just to note, my partner was cute---> too bad I didn't get the chance to march alongside him, TSK! what a waste zin! the bride was talking to me as I was pinning the veil.
I thought it was all over.
Again, while my head was wandering and all, Blanca gave me a nudge, "zindy! tatangalin na yung veil!!!" (zindy, it's time to remove the veil!!!) again, with all my pupils dilating, I gathered pieces of me and went to the altar, this time, Mike (my partner) was smiling at me.
Thanks for that Mike, I really needed that.
I got the pin and when I got back to my seat, pinned it to my pouch bag (which went along with the gown, it was so cute!) and just after a few mins, we had to go in front for the picture taking session. I took my bouquet and pouch bag and
"OUCH!" yes, I got pinned!!!
(sighs)
When does the hurting ever end!!!
Oh well, we got to the reception and everything was fine. EVERYTHING WAS FUN!!! We then approached the newly wed and gave them our blessings.
We got a cab on our way home. We got an AHOLE DRIVER who was asking additional payment blah blah since it was traffic!!! I hate him!!! BIG TIME!!! blah blah... Manila was flooded above the ankle level!!! When you are wearing stilletoes and a pink balloon gown, THAT'S NOT RIGHT!!!
We asked the AHOLE DRIVER to drop us off at SM Manila to buy flip flops and guess what, I almost fell into the flood! Well, I didn't (something I am grateful for).
We bought the flip flops and the flood subsided and we thought it was happily ever after when we realized we had to go and climb through bars before we can get a ride (THERE WERE NO AVAILABLE CABS, BUSES, etc...)
You see, dee and I are the boyish type, it won't hurt for us to go climb bars but in our gown/dress?! You gotta be kidding me!!!
WELL YOU GUESSED RIGHT! We did! We were busting in laughter while doing so!!!
We got on a bus and again, STANDING!!! we travelled from Manila to Quezon Avenue for about more than an hour I guess with all the flood and traffic happening.
We got to our destination, took a cab, I went t the office in my gown and changed up.
WHAT A DAY IT HAS BEEN!!!
Well if I'd have to do it all over again for another friend's wedding, EXCEPT FOR BEING LATE, I will! :)
(sighs)
Weddings... they never get boring..
Weeks ago, I was so tired from work and so stressed with school deadlines. I just wanted to sleep and never wake up!
I got home at about past 7am one day and as I was embracing the silence in the room, my 3 year old super kulit nephew comes in.
I figured that since he wasn't really disturbing me, it's ok that he was in the room. He had his picture books with him and had spread them on my bed. My temper almost got to me but I thought,
"come on, he's not such a pain anyway..."
When I was about to start my REM, he sat beside me- browsing through one of his picture books. I wanted to make sure that he won't bother me so I told him straight,
"Gabby bawal ang makulit hah, matutulog ang tita, ok?" (Gabby, don't disturb tita, she's going to sleep, ok?)
"Opo" (Yes)
I closed my eyes and was almost THERE until he caught my attention.
"Tita Zindy, anong tawag dito?" (Tita Zindy, how do you call this?)
I dropped from the almost heavenly REM feeling then sighed thinking to myself "THIS BETTER BE DANG GOOD!!!"- and to tell you the truth I'm really bitchy most of the time ;)
He was pointing at an animal in the middle of the page- Orangutan
In my "most sweet tita tone" I told him,
"Ah yan? Orangutan yan. Sabihin mo nga... O-rang-gu-tan, O-rang-gu-tan... ulitin mo nga?" (Oh that? That's an Orangutan. Try to say it, O-rang-gu-tan, O-rang-gu-tan... try to repeat it?)
He gave me that child stare and after 5 seconds, he stared at the picture and said...
"Monkey..."
I tried not to show him how cute I found him! But as soon as I got to work, I was telling my officemates about him, sending me laughing my ass off.
(sighs)
Kids and their innocence.
How can you ever hate them?
kisses!
