Nahuhulog (Grazilda OST)

Twing titigan mo, Parang natutunaw ako
Hindi mapakali, Nanlalamig pag na sa yong tabi
Ngunit twing kausap ka, wala naming nasasabi
Nauutal parang sinasakal biglang napipi

Hindi normal sa akin ang gan’to, Ngunit ang nadarama’y gusto
Hindi ko alam ano ba’to, Tila nahuhulog sa yo
Bakit lumulukso ang puso ko kapag nar’yan ka na
Hindi ko alam kung bakit ba lagi na lang mayrong kaba
Sa twing kausap kay nanginginig ang tawag nga ba rito’y pag-ibig

Twing nakikita ka, ang mundo koy umiiba
Gumagaan, gumaganda, biglang sumasaya
Ngunit twing kausap ka, wala namang nasasabi
Nauutal parang sinasakal biglang napipi

Hindi normal sa akin ang gan’to, Ngunit ang nadarama’y gusto
Hindi ko alam ano ba’to, Tila nahuhulog sa yo
Bakit lumulukso ang puso ko kapag nar’yan ka na
Hindi ko alam kung bakit ba lagi na lang mayrong kaba
Sa twing kausap ka’y nanginginig ang tawag nga ba rito’y pag-ibig

Hindi ko alam kung bakit ba lagi na lang mayrong kaba
Sa twing kausap ka’y nanginginig ang tawag nga ba rito ay pag-ibig

Below is my personal audio-video mix for Grazilda....for her famous line:
"Kay Laking Tasa"

Kape

(Inspired by a coffee commercial)

Minsan nakakatamad imulat ang aking mga mata.
Minsan nakakawalang ganang kumilos ang ihip ng hangin sa umaga.
Minsan nakakapanghina ang bukangliwayway-
na tagahatid ng mensahe ng araw na matalinghaga.

Ngunit sa tuwing naalala ko ang mga matang naghihintay ng aking ngiti;
Mga tenga nilang umaasang may bago na naming marinig;
Mga puso nilang muli’t muli’y may pananabik;
At mga isip nilang naglalakbay at nawiwili –

Sa maaari nilang matutunan sa bawat araw;
Sa mga aral ng buhay na kelangan ng tanglaw;
Sa mga malilikha nilang mundong balisawsaw;
At mga bagay na tunog bago at umaalingawngaw.

Kaya pilit kong nililisan ang aking higaan;
Inaayos ang aking sarili at katawan;
Ibinabalik ko sa aking katinuan ang aking kamalayan;
At inihahanda sa isang na namang pakikipaglaban.

Dahil alam kong may naghihintay sa akin;
Alam kong may umaasang mapansin;
Mga estudyante kong bagamat madalas ay pasaway;
Ngunit inspirasyon ang sa aki’y kanilang bigay.

Sila ang dahilan kung bakit ang araw koy masaya;
Kung bakit ang puso ko’y may sigla;
Kung bakit ang isip ko’y may halina;
At ang araw ko’y isang biyaya.

Para sa isang tulad kong guro, kaligayahan na ang makita ko-
Mga estudyante kong unti-unting natuto;
Sa mga araling itinakda sa araw na ito;
At sa mga aral ng buhay na magulo.

Ako, sa araw-araw na ginawa ng Diyos;
Ninanais kong bumangon at kumilos;
Ikaw, bumabangon ka ba para kanino?
Oh ano, ikaw naman ang magkwento…

THE WORLD’S GREATEST JINX

Today, I have a very wonderful day; a day full of challenges, full of life, full of colors and full of sweats too. Let me start it with the text message that I received from my sister while I was taking a jeepney going to my workplace. It says that I need to drop by a medical laboratory clinic to get the receipt my mother had for the x-ray film to retrieve after 1 o’clock in the afternoon. It was yet quarter to ten and my mother doesn’t want to wait that long hours. In other words, I have to fetch the film later that day before I go home.
The day was good for me that time. And everything seemed to be fine. When I reached my workplace after thirty minutes from that laboratory clinic, I went straight to the school library to look for the statistics book that I’ll be using as reference in interpreting the exercises that my friend needs in her masters studies. I’ve been working on this for almost a week now. It was not that hard but it wasn’t easy too. Then it was also complicates with another exercises my other was trying to ask help from me on her field study subject. So, I am mixing two tasks at a time and they want to get over with this on the same due date.
Good for them because they have me to help with their assigned tasks. (Nagreklamo ba?, hehehe) But another complication that spoils my work is the fact that I am there at school on duty for the enrollment. So when twelve noon came, I have to take over the enrollment table for the one assigned needs to take her lunch. I have to keep my other chores and do my job. Things went easy and time flies fast that it made me forget to fetch my mother’s x-ray film supposed to be taken at one thirty in the afternoon. It was four-thirty in the afternoon already and I was in apprehension to fail to get it. Optimistic enough, I left my post and rushed to the lab clinic that will take me a thirty minute ride. Lucky I am to get there almost twenty five minutes only but unfortunate enough to know that the lab closes at four.
After a shrug of shoulders from the janitor’s statement to get back the next day, I went back to the city proper to pay my credit card bills. When I arrived at a department store’s payment section, the line of people to pay is more than my bill. So I decided to change my payment venue. It will be on a late afternoon bank. When I get there, I look for the payment form, but I couldn’t find one. So, I approached the security personnel and gladly he told me that the bank is running out of payment forms for that day.
So I just give another shrug of shoulders and went my way out. Unlucky, but I was happy. I was happy to know that despite those series of unfortunate events, I proved that I am the world’s greatest JINX.
