To be special is to be blessed (REACH FOR THE SKY 2)

Every now and then we cover different events,as a part of the media team we have to get involved in order for us to deliver a more truthful story.But during this event called "Reach for the Sky 2", i didn't get involved. I got ATTACHED! Yes..attached because I was so happy to be with kids. I am fond of kids, I love playing with them,making kulit and all..and during this event I didn't spend my time with ordinary kids.. I spent some time with VERY SPECIAL KIDS...why?because in this event..the participants were children who were visually impaired,those who were not able to walk,some fighting cancer at a very young age and some have autism.

We call them special because we see them differently, some do not treat them normally because to them these kids are not capable of doing normal things..they may be right at some point..but they are totally wrong!These kids may be different..but just like any ordinary kids..they know how to dream..and some of them..they dream of FLYING..

Jayvie and I having an interview with Andi...

Just like Andi..we met him during the event and I had an interview with him..He told us that he got the chance to ride a plane..and he'll ride two more..when asked what he likes about being up there in the air.. I was stunned by his answer because he said he's not afraid to fly and he gets the chance to say hi to his Lola and Papa who are in heaven..and when asked what he wants to be..he immediately said that he wants to be a pilot and he'll only fly with cute girls and his girlfriend..how cute right? :) During the interview,there was a lady who was taking photos and videos, to our surprise she was Andi's mom. We also asked her several questions..and I just can't help but admire her..she told us that it was difficult to have Andi at first..the denial stage was there..but after some time..they have accepted Andi and realized that he was truly special because he was a blessing from GOD.. And according to her... "SPECIAL CHILDREN are for SPECIAL PARENTS".

These kids..they have dreams..and with the help of different organizatons..they were able to reach their dreams of flying..they also got the chance to experience photography!how amazing is that!

Photography with a difference!Now can you imagine how special his works could be?GO JEREMY!take that shot :)

I only spent half of my day with them..and yet they were able to give me so much joy,just seeing those smiles on their faces..those innocent looks,the way they get amused with things,the way they appreciate people..I can't help but fall in love with them..I can't imagine how much joy they bring to their families..

To others they may be different,but for me,just like ordinary kids,they should be accepted and they should be treated well,they should be spared from bullying and any form of abuse..they deserve so much love and respect from the society!To me they are not just special..BUT VERY SPECIAL...

Here are some photos from the event.

Andi and his loving Mom :)

Who said they can't dance the dougie?!ofcourse they can!!! :)

I did my opening spill for my show with them! :)

me talking to my special friends! :)

Snapshots with them :)

How cute can they get? :)

Chit chat with the kids!

Young warriors!

How lovely..very charming girl..

Must be my favorite photo! :)

if it's meant to be,it will be..

It wasn't as easy as one,two,three

The truth is that, you're just a stranger to me

 Still I don't know what you did to me

I guess it started with that snobbish look you gave to me

And now little by little I get to know you

And now I don't know

But I think I'm afraid to lose you

I know for a fact that we don't have anything yet

But one thing's for sure,you're someone I don't want to forget

But what can I do if you need to go

When I know I can't stop you from doing so

Though I understand  why you have to leave

It breaks my heart to finally see you leave

For when you go,my tears will flow

And my smile will start to fade I know

Though it's hard, I'll try to hide

All the hurts that I'm feeling inside

So little time to spend with you

So many things I wanna do

But I guess this is how our story goes

I know at some point I'll have to let you go

As difficult as it can be,you had me,I had you,but not really

I know this time there's nothing but goodbye

And all I can do is to fake a smile

But here in my heart I pray so hard

That one day we don't have to be apart...

You are my angel and my devil too,

But now that you're leaving what can I do?

It feels like hell to be away from you

And if ill be granted, i just want,one last moment with you...

For now my angel,my devil, I'll let you go your way

And I'll be hoping that one day we would still meet halfway..

IF IT'S MEANT TO BE,IT WILL BE.. - dempong

LOVE?seriously?

December 29,2010

Just an ordinary day in my oh so ordinary life..

I'm just wondering what else I can do to kill this boredom I have..

and so..I'm writing a blog..

I'm just thinking right now on what particular topic should I dwell on..hmmm..let it be LOVE!

OK..i really don't know if I'm the right person to write about this topic..but I'm going to give it a try...

What is LOVE?

The truth of the matter is..I DON'T KNOW! of course i can define it..but trying to think about it..do i really know what love is?do YOU really know what love is?

Well as for me, LOVE is difficult..it has given me the best and the worst of my life..

Yah right.talk about HEARTACHES,PAINS and HURTS..I've been there..a couple of times if I may say..

and the feeling...oh it SUCKS..

But ofcourse it has also given me "some" good times,i felt the kilig,the happiness,the unexplainable feeling of excitement when you're about to see the person you like..the feeling is just..well..happy..but LOVE so far never gave me a happy ending...aha! yah..and i wonder..why?! I've been so good, I know for sure that I know how to love..but why no happy ending?

well the best answer answer maybe is.. IT'S NOT YET TIME..I seriously want to believe on this..but sometimes I just can't...they say the RIGHT ONE will come..is there such thing as THE RIGHT ONE?because for me..I BELIEVE that you make yourself RIGHT for the person that you choose to love :)

Some issues about LOVE:

1. How will I know if he is " THE ONE"?

I've asked a couple of people about this issue, and all their answers would end up "you just feel it, it's like magic"..well they might be right, you can never question the feelings of a person who is inlove..they are the ONLY persons who can describe what they feel..well for me, I guess I have to agree with them,YOU just FEEL it..for some reasons you just can't explain the feeling right..but of course when we are inlove,we, most of the time get confused..we tend to ask ourselves and sometimes others about what we feel, but i guess ,LOVE is a RISK..if you get to love a person and it ends up that HE is really the one for you, then LUCKY YOU! BUT..if it ends up the other way around maybe he is not yet the one rightfully meant for you..let's just say,he's just a part of the story you have to deal with and forget sooner or later..you just have to continue the search :)

2. Is it TRUE LOVE?

I was searching over the net when I found this quote:

"True love is finding someone who makes you want to be better, and believes you are more wonderful than you yourself believes"

I was amazed by the content of this quote,because for me this is what TRUE love is. Love is supposed to make you feel good about yourself, it's supposed to bring out the best in you,it's not supposed to destroy you..Finding TRUE love I guess will make you want to become a better person, not only for the person you love but most specially for YOURSELF. 


One more thing, I believe that it is true love when the well-being of the loved one comes first before yours..because love is not SELFISH, love is self sacrificing and giving..this is how true love is for me..


3. Is it WORTH THE FIGHT?


Most of us,I assume experienced heartaches,we were all once placed into situations where we have to choose between holding on and letting go..and as easy as we can say it, it's one of the most difficult things to decide on..


i'll have a more personal attack on this one..


 well in my case, i have to say that I am a fighter when it comes to love,I've been into a lot of complicated stuffs when it comes to it,but if I know and feel that the love is worth the fight, then am very willing to fight for it,


do i get hurt? YES! DEFINITELY! 
is it difficult?! ABSOLUTELY!


but why do i do it? it's simple..it's because I don't want to give up without giving it a try and i don't want to give up a battle without giving it a good fight,,it's all about taking risk..LOVE is a risk and it takes a very brave individual to take the love risk..


but it doesn't end there... i know how to fight but i also know WHEN TO STOP FIGHTING...


I STOP when i know that there is no longer a reason to hold on,i stop when i know that I'm the only one fighting,why?because in love..you can never fight alone..if you are fighting for that one person you love and he is not doing the same thing..then..hey!!wake up..and be kind to yourself..it's not worth the effort at all..you take risk,you get hurt and you suffer for NOTHING..it's not supposed to be that way..you are fighting because you know and feel that it's worth the try, but if you are presented with the truth that there is no more reason to fight or to hold on..there's only one thing left to do..and.that is to LET GO and to take one step forward to move on..


As i said, love is a risk, meaning you will never know if you will come up with a good ending or not..if you end up being with the person you love, then it's worth all the pain..but if not..i guess you can just give yourself a pat on the shoulder for being brave enough to take the risk and giving your fight a good fight..Sometimes getting hurt is also good, for it makes you a stronger and a better person in the end..


At the end of it all i guess no one can really define what LOVE is..for love is PERSONAL and SUBJECTIVE because we all want different things, nothing can provide what we're looking for in life. So love and life is a thing full of frustration on some unconscious level..

Someday,someone will come into your life,someone who will hold your hand and will NEVER LET IT GO - rye :)

"ANG BIGLAAN"

NASTYS + JM

It started with a plan of when and how we will celebrate the Christmas season together..the group decided to meet up and talk about the so called CHRISTMAS PARTY..we had a discussion over dinner (at tokyo tokyo on December IDK..aha) and there we decided to have the party at Jam's house located in Mabalacat on the 12th of December,the food and all..oh well potluck! (kuno). (it was not really easy deciding about the date, given the fact that some of us are not sure if it's their off or whatsoever..but as for me I am totally free..aha

December 10,some text messages are being received..asking if we will push through with the Christmas party, Jam even asked if we want to swim because she'll get passes for us..

December 11, a day before the so - called party..SILENCE!!!! in short.walang nagpaparamdam...as in in short may mga nagpaparamdam na hindi makakarating at hindi matutuloy ang Christmas party!! eto na..kumukulo na ang aking dugo..hindi na nga ako pinayagan sa lakad ko para sa December 18 eh mukhang hindi pa ata matutuloy ang lakad namin! JUSKO PATAWARIN!! NALINTIKAN NA!!

Umakyat kami sa taas,nilibot ang bahay kahit walang pahintulot..at biglang sabi ni mean:

RIGHT AFTER SAYING A PRAYER

ANG PAGBABA
(TODO NERBYOS SA TAKOT NA MAHULOG)

Right after going to the groto, we decided to go back at Xevera..ramdam na ramdam namin ang pangangatog ng paa sa pag akyat at pagbaba sa Groto, pero for walang pagsisi :)

Bago makabalik sa Xevera, namili muna ang mga bata..ICECREAM,CHIPS..pagkain nanaman..dahil according to jen ay MERYENDA TIME na!Pero bago makabalik sa mismong bahay...ang daming stop overs!!bawat daanan na yata namin eh pumopose kami...

Picture dito, picture don..akala na yata ng mga tao eh talagang turista kami na nabana sa Xevera! excuse me lang ah..masaya lang talaga magpicturan! :)

2. Ang simbahan ng Xevera.

3. Ang school na kung maka orange eh parang hindi na kukulayan ng orange ulit!

4. Ewan,basta ang alam ko dinaanan namin yan.

5.Pero siyempre ito ang pinaka the best sa lahat,ang bahay ni Jameelah! :)

Pagkatapos ng mahabang lakaran at matinding picturan,nakarating din ulit sa bahay nila jam..KAINAN NA ULIT!!!at ang pinaka surprising sa lahat!! EXCHANGE GIFTS NA!!!

Habang kumakain,nagbunutan narin kung kanino ibibigay ang gift..

Ang saya ko dahil mukhang matutupad ang pangarap ko na si MEAN ang mabubunot ko..wahaha..pero sa bawat pagbunot ay laging may salot!!isang beses,dalawa,tatlo!!!parang di na yata matatapos!!

"oh ok na siguro noh?"

Sa wakas OK na nga...at nagbigayan na ng regalo...

Excited sa gifts eh halos alam naman kung ano makukuha!at infairness sa amin ni JEN, ni hindi namin ibinalot man lang o tinanggal ang presyo ng regalo!!whaha

OK winner ako dito!!may little cap pa ako! ;)

 OK..lakad na papuntang pool..exciting...TEKA..mukhang naliligaw yata kami...may fellowship na nagaganap...(laughtrip)

Doon pala sa may side ang daan..sorry naman tao lang..

Pagdating sa may pool area..


(sabay bigay ni jam ng pass kay manong guard)


manong guard nagbilang..1,2,3,4,5...five..anim ang pass..ok sobra..so what..(lahat excited ng magswimming,sabay nakatingin na sa swimming pool)

Biglang..

"mam, hindi po pwede ang cotton"

Nagtitigan, nagkunutan ang noo..nagtataka.. ANO DAW?!

"kuya anong cotton?"

"mam,yung suot niyo po..hindi pwede kasi po cotton"

"ano kuya?bakit bawal?!anong pwede?"

"mam dapat po yung madulas, silk, jersey..ganun po mam"

"huh?kuya sandali lang kami!(sabay nagmamakaawa effect)"

"mam pasensya na po trabaho lang,hindi po talaga pwede"

"kuya sige na, hindi naman to cotton eh"

biglang tinawag ang lifeguard kuno na mukhang mamamatay tao para icheck kuno ang tela ng suot..(ano sila MGA TELA EXPERT para alam ang cotton sa hindi?!)

 "hindi talaga pwede yan mam,cotton yan,tignan mo may himulmol"

"kuya sige na,sandali lang"

MEAN : naglalakad sabay padyak ng paa habang sinasabing...

"gusto kong magswimming!!!!!!" (sabay nakasimangot ang mukha,habang ang iba ay gulong gulo sa pag iisip kung saan hahanap jersey o silk)

Ako?!wala easy lang ako..this time.. IT'S MY TIME TO SHINE!!! tama ang outfit ko teh!! bwahaha
(oops,ang problema lang cotton ang t-shirt ko)

Ang ibig sabihin,hindi kami pwedeng magswimming dahil wrong outfit! Ibig sabihin, purnada ang swimming.. 

But wait there's more!!!!..NEVER SAY DIE ANG DRAMA NG BARKADA!!


Tama!hindi sumuko ang mga friends ko..malakas ang fighting spirit!!may solusyon sila!!

IT's TIANGGE TIME BABY!!! (akalain niyong sa hangarin nilang makapagswimming eh talagang pumunta pa ng tiangge para humanap ng jersey o silk)


UMUWI muna kami para kumuha ng pera,sabay halukay ng iba sa gamit para makakita ng konting pag asa na baka may nadala silang silk!aha..Ngunit wala,,pero may mga desperada talaga..tulad ni MEAN at JAM na talagang handang MAGLEGGINGS sa ngalan ng swimming!!hanep!! (ako,walang ginawa kung hindi tumawa dahil hindi ko maimagne na nka leggings ang barkada ko sa pool na parang mag gygym lang..whaha)


Ang lakbay patungong tiangge..


Natural lang na may dala kaming twalya dahil una sa lahat pagkatapos namin sa tiangge ay deretso pool na kami..energy saving nga naman..

NGUNIT!! hindi kami nakaligtas sa mata ng mapanghusgang publiko...


habang naglalakad...

"magdala la pamong tuwalya!"

sabay hagalpak ang mga pangit at sinabi ng pasigaw ang...

"hindi diyan ang pool" (sabay tawa ulit)

Sa isip ko lang: Mga pangit kayo,alam namin na hindi dun ang pool... tiangge yung pupuntahan namin!!tiangge!!!bobo...(mahirap sabihin ito,dahil una salahat,marami sila,at higit sa lahat mukha talagang naligaw kami dahil sa twalyang bitbit namin!)


pagdating sa tiangge..nakakita agad ng jersey! (swerte nga naman)

"magkano po tong jersey" (hawak sa tela)

"300 po" 

"magjersey kang mag isa mo!!!" (sabay bitaw sa jersey na muntik maibalibag sa mukha ng nagtitinda!ahahaha)

Hanap dito,hanap doon..sakit na ng paa ko...sa wakas..natapos din.. 


Sabay nagmamadali na pumunta sa restroom para magbihis..OK na ..for sure makakapagswimming narin kami!!!


bigay uli ng pass kay manong guard..

"ayan kuya ha,bumili pa kami"

"naku mam hindi pa rin po pwede"

"bakit?!silk na to ah!!!!"

"hindi mam cotton yan,yung tatlo pwede na..(ako,jen and aivy)

Jam:" kuya hindi to cotton,silk toh,tignan mo man".

(sabay lapit ng mukhang kriminal na lifesaver kuno)

" cotton yan mam,may glitters lang!"

naloko na..hindi lusot si jam... at isa pa tong si mean na hindi na maipinta ang mukha sa pagkadismaya na hindi talaga siya makakapagswimming!!! nakakalungkot talaga pero sobrang nakakatawa yung itsura niya...

Jam: "sige na, kayo nalang,ako hindi na..."

Mean: "ako hindi, gusto ko magswimming!!!!!!!!!!" (may kasamang kunot sa noo at pagdabog!)

At ganoon na nga ang nangyari..hindi nakapagswimming ang dalawa..dahil ang suot nila ahy hindi pwede,,sayang naman ang binili nilang cycling shorts..nagastos na nga..hindi parin umubra...(evil laugh!)

Swim galore naman kami nila jen at aivy...walang tao sa pool..kami kami nalang..cotton nga pala ang pampatong namin..kaya pagdive sa pool sabay tanggal ang shirt..ang lamig!!ni minsan hindi ako nagswimming ng walang patong na shirt!!di bale sana kung nasa bora pero haler!!! XEVERA lang yun teh!!!XEVERA!!

Floating...sisid...langoy...sarap inggitin ni mean at jam...nasa may gilid lang sila..pero siyempre dahil mahal namin sila,winisikan namin sila para naman maramdaman nila na kahait papano nabasa sila! ahaha

Mean: sa susunod na pumunta ako dito,maggogown ako!!silk yun di ba?!" 

"OO nga bok,tama yun,dapat pagpasok mo palang sa Xevera nakasilk kana!"

FIRST ATTEMPT para makapagswim!FAILED!

ANG PAGBALIK SA BAHAY PARA KUMUHA NG PERA PAGTIANGGE

KAWAWA NAMAN SILA..NASA GILID LANG! :)

ANG MGA PINAGPALA!!

OBSERVE PROPER SWIMMING ATTIRE!!!

Hindi rin nagtagal umahon na kami..picture picture...GABI NA..ahon na..balik na sa bahay..


Pagbalik sa bahay..as usual kumain muna ang mga matatakaw..habang ako ay iniinda ko na ang sakit ng katawan...dala narin siguro ng pagod at mali mali na ang mga nasasabi namin..tulad nalang ni Aivy na bumanat ng:

Aivy: " inaantok ang mata ko"

Rye: "natural, ala nga namang antukin yang ilong mo"

laughtrip talaga.. pero ang pinaka laughtrip sa lahat ay ng biglang makakita si Mean ng damit sa kanyang bag...tinignan,hinaplos,ininspeksyon...sabay tanong sa amin...

"SILK BA TOH???!!!"

OO bok..walang duda,madulas,makinis at makinang..SILK NGA YAN!!!bwahahaha... 


Akalain mong kung nakita sana niya yun ng mas maaga ahy malamang nakapagswimming siya at hindi na niya kelanagan makipag away kay manong guard...ahaha


After ng lahat ng tawanan at kulitan..kelangan ng umuwi..haaay.grabeeeng araw..kapagod at kaloka...


One memorable day with my nastys + jm, a day that was full of  laughters and more laughters..We may not be together as often as we want to, we have different works (housework included) and sometimes our schedules won't even permit us to be together..but for one day (though we're not complete) I felt so good to be with them again..The kulitans, the tawanans and the punch lines..I will never trade for anything..They will always be my friends,more than that, i believe that we treat each other like sisters..


WE may not be the typical barkada who would go out at night,the type who would dress to impress,who would drink till we drop,who would party all night..it's NOT us..(not that I have anything against those types) it's just that we're different..YES we spend time going to NOVENAS, GOING TO CHURCHES,GOING TO GROTOS and EVEN GOING TO CONVENTS..(we're not super religious ok?)others might have a hard time to believe it,but YES! it's true..and we're proud of it..I'm not saying that we're the super goody goody type..we also have our own shares of pagmamaldita, panlalait,panunumpa(na suuper effective lalo na pag galing sa yours truly!) at pangaaway...but most of the time they're done in the right place and time..


Some may not understand us,some people might even question how we came up to be together..different persona,different ways of thinking..oh well, i just have to say that THIS IS US..and no matter what happens..we will never change the way we are...


i simply love you guys!
