In November 2006, I sent you an email. You said you were surprised and somehow flattered. You even thanked me. Then in February 14, 2007, you greeted me a happy valentine's day thru IM. It was my turn to be surprised, but not flattered. Tried so hard not to cry, but I did. A friend in the office took notice and asked me why. I said I didn't appreciate your greeting me a happy hearts day. She was confused, but I wasn't. I felt that you were just playing with me, with my emotions. You didn't even bother to greet me on my birthday, prolly 'coz you don't remember when my birthday is. But come on, neither did u greet me on Christmas and New Year! And on Valentine's Day you suddenly remembered? Dude, Christmas and New Year are more 'universal' holidays than Valentine's Day! Even those who are not really close greet each other during these times. Honestly, I would have appreciated it more if you had greeted me on these occasions. It's pretty obvious that you did what you did because of that letter. Maybe you were trying to be nice, thought it might make me feel good. WELL, YOU SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT IT TWICE!
After that incident, pissed-off feeling aside, I can sincerely say that I was able to start letting you go and move on with my life. We stopped whatever little communication we had and it was such a good thing for me.
Present time, February 14, 2008. Today, a year after, you confirmed that what I was feeling exactly the same time last year, with regard to your greeting me, was true. You met my expectation by not greeting me today. Now it's my turn to thank you.

6 months after
September, October, November, December, January, February. Six months have passed. No developments. Nothing at all.
Clueless but still hopeful. Never giving up on you.
Keep in mind that I will always be here.

Novak is King of the Australian Open
You are not mistaken!
It's not Roger Federer nor Rafael Nadal.
Novak Djokovic, the world's number three, became Serbia's first Grand Slam singles champion, when he defeated Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in four sets, 4-6 6-4 6-3 7-6(7-2) at Melbourne Park, Australia.
Good for him.
Novak turned pro in 2003. But if I remember correctly, the first time I saw him play on tv was in 2005. I instantly became a fan. Saw the potential in him (naks, feeling tennis guru naman ako, hehehe) and he was super cute (ayan, mas forte ko
yan :P)! I'm glad that he won his first grand slam, though, a bigger part of me wanted Tsonga to win. The Frenchman was the one who beat Rafa in the semis, while the Serbian won over Federer.
As you probably know by now, next to Andre Agassi, Rafael Nadal is my next favorite tennis player. And you might have guessed that I am no Federer fanatic. I cheered for Novak during his match with Federer and was super happy when he beat the world's number one. But as my karma would have it, Rafa lost to Tsonga.
But I still cheered for Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the Final. Instead of wishing Novak to win so he could avenge the loss of Rafa, I had other twisted things in mind.
* Tsonga needs to win so that Rafa's loss would be easier to accept - at least he lost to the Champion, and
* Novak must not win because I don't want him to get closer and closer to the number 2 spot and take it away from Rafa. He can remain at number 3 all he wants, but he must not overtake Nadal in the rankings.
I am that selfish.
Hmm...did I say that I was glad Novak won? Wachutink?

Gone too soon
I was brushing my teeth this morning when my dad suddenly blurted out "Sweetheart, patay na yung isa sa mga cowboys." No idea as to who he was referring to, I asked "Sinong cowboy?" "Yung dun sa brokeback mountain," my dad replied.
"Huwaaat? Sino dun? Shyet! Si Jake Gyllenhaal?" I specifically said Jake's name because I didn't want for Heath Ledger to die so soon. Then my dad said "Hindi, yung si Ledger." My heart skipped a beat.
Actor Heath Ledger dies at 28.
I know we're not related (well, we should have been if he didn't pass away so early hahaha), but I was really devastated when I heard the sad news. To quote Mel Gibson, his co-star in the movie The Patriot, "He was just taking off and to lose his life at such a young age is a tragic loss."
Gone too soon.
Truth is, I always get scared when someone young or younger than me passes away. Morbid thoughts cross my mind and I always end up thinking "what if it was me?" I'm afraid to die - there I said it! I'm not ready to leave this world yet. I have so many things I want to do, so many experiences for me to take part of. I have to ask forgiveness from a lot of people, and at the same time, I have a lot of love & happiness to share. I can't leave just yet.
Having said that, I also don't want for people I love to leave so soon. I've experienced the pain of losing a loved one when my mom passed away almost 4 months after I turned 7 years old. I didn't really feel the impact of her passing away until I think I was in high school already. Sure, my dad, brothers and sister were there for me, but it was different not having a mom. I can imagine what Heath's daughter, Mathilda, will go through when she grows up.
Life and death - both are difficult to master. Life, you want to experience more, death, you try to avoid. And yet, when you explore life, this may actually lead you to your death. How ironic.

Open/Idol
Two things I love about the month of January:
(1) Australian Open - first grand slam event of the year. It kicked off yesterday and will run for two weeks. No doubt i'll be rooting for Rafael Nadal. He's a three-time grand slam champion, but these are all from the French Open. Hope he'll do well in the hardcourt and have a fruitful (read: win his first Australian Open) fortnight.
(2) American Idol - Simon, Randy, Paula & Ryan are back. It's that time of the year when America and I start looking for the new American Idol. Hehehe! The thing I like about this show is, it helps me appreciate different types of music. But the downside is, if I didn't like the performance, I could be worse than Simon. Hahaha, just kidding.
Only the first month and I'm already busy. Busy watching tv.

Happy 24th to me
I celebrated my 24th birthday last December 8. I was a bit sad because Nathan, my nephew was hospitalized. But I know he'd get well soon coz that was one of my birthday wishes. Though I didn't spend my birthday with my friends unlike last year, I still had a blast. Nothing beats spending time with your loved ones. My family never fails to make me laugh my heart out. To make me happy, to laugh out loud. To make me feel loved.
Thanks for being my family. I love you all! =)
Ok, since I'm suppose to start my year right, I confess. It's not my 24th birthday, but that's how I look and feel. Hahaha!
Happy 24th to me! =)
P.S.
Thank you to Aga Muhlach for coming to my pre-bday celebration in the office. Hahaha!
Thank you to the Waasaaak Gang for the wonderful surprise. I'm so touched. =)
And thanks to all who made my day extra special just by texting me. *hugs* mwah! =)
'Til next year. ;-)

I'd rather be blue than be green
Ateneo screwed up last Saturday when they lost to NU and today they paid the price. Big time!
They beat La Salle twice in the elimination round but they lost to the game that really mattered most, the game that would have given them the twice to beat advantage. It sucks! Shyet!
They will face UST and the winner of that game will face La Salle. Half of me is wishing they win so they can get back at La Salle and beat 'em again twice in a row. The other half wants UST to win coz somehow I think they have a better chance of winning over the archers. Any team but La Salle. Can't get over Ateneo's loss. Shyet!
Shyet! Shyet! Shyet!
I wonder how Norman Black is taking all of these. I feel for the guy.
Hope everything will still turn out great for Ateneo this year. Otherwise, any team but La Salle, pare!

ThePope
I've only seen you once.
I've only heard you talk
For about 5 minutes or so.
And yet, I'm into you.
I don't really know you.
In fact, I don't know you at all.
But why can't I stop thinking about you?
Time will tell
If we'll ever see each other again.
And only God knows
If we'll ever going to meet someday.
Oh, how I hope we do!
Am praying so hard
that my wish will come true!

Missing Andre
It's already Day 10 of the US Open 2007 and my baby, este, my favorite Rafael Nadal lost to his fellow Spaniard, David Ferrer, in the fourth round. I didn't want to go to work today so I could watch his game, but I think I made the right choice. Hehehe!
Anyways, I would surely miss Rafa since this is the last Grand Slam for this year. I won't get to watch him until the Australian Open next year. But heck, it's just 4 months away and it's not that long. I can wait. =)
If there's one person that I would definitely miss in the wonderful world of tennis, it's none other than my ultimate idol, Andre Agassi. For those who do not know (hellur! from what rock have you been hinding under?!), Andre retired from tennis last year after losing in the third round of the US Open to Benjamin Becker, who before that game, was a relatively unknown, but for me, would go down in history as the player who beat Andre on the day of his retirement. For me, he made Andre's stay shorter. Andre could still have played in the fourth round had Becker not beaten him. I could have watched him play another match. But then again, I knew that he was already playing hurt at that time. As difficult as it was to accept, it was his time.
I cried and still do whenever I see his final moments in the US Open. The standing ovation, his speech, his tears - who wouldn't cry, right? I just love the guy so much and miss him like the way I miss my brothers. Aawww. =)
I wanted to end this blog by adding the video I got from YouTube, but I don't know how to convert it and the site I bumped into can't seem to do the work. So here's the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jLrqJNdfTG4 - and I bet your ass, you're gonna cry as well. :P

And one more
Picking up from my last post (and because of the weather today), I found out that there's one more weird thing about me...I can actually sleep for more than 12 hours straight. And I mean straight. ;-) There was even this time that I slept for 28 hours. I must have been really, really dead tired at that time. Hehehe!
ZzzZzzZzz... :P

6 Weird Things About Moi
I was thinking of updating my blog but didn't really know what to write. Good thing, I checked out Abril's blog first and found out that she tagged me to blog about the 6 weird things about myself.
So here it goes.
1. A human birthday calendar - Tell me when your birthday is and i'll remember it as long as I live. Okay, I maybe exaggerating a lil bit, but I do remember my gradeschool classmates' birthdays until now. And I mean classmates who were not even my close friends.
2. I can't keep my mouth shut - I'm the type of person who says what she feels. This can be from the harmless "I'm hungry" or "I'm sleepy" or "nawiwiwi ako" to the trouble-seeking comments like "ang ingay" or "miss yung hair mo!". Even if I know that it'll get me into fights sometimes, I just can't help it. I say what I want to say at that instance.
3. I am a stalker - I even get amazed at myself whenever I get hold of some juicy info about my "stalkee". Hehehe! Para hindi mabuko kung paano ako mag-stalk, I'd rather not elaborate. =)
4. A Fanatic - I've been a fan of basketball and tennis for a long time now. As much as possible, I watch all the games of my favorite basketball team and tennis player. But as the saying goes "you can't win 'em all." So everytime my favorite loses, I CRY. Yep, it's kinda embarrassing to admit, but I do get affected. Sometimes, my dad or my siblings would warn me and say "wag ka ng manood, maiiyak ka lang" or when my fave is not winning, they'd say "may maiiyak mamaya." And true enough, my tears just start falling as I see my favorite basketball team or tennis player goes out of the court with disappointment written all over their faces.
5. I wipe tables and sinks - I don't like the feeling of getting wet. Ok, don't think about dirty stuff here.=P I've noticed that whenever my friends and I go out and eat, and some piece of food slips out of my plate, I start wiping off my part of the table clean. Or when the drink I'm having starts to "sweat" and leaves "perspiration" on the table, I go crazy wiping it dry. I just hate the feeling of my elbows or my arms being wet. Same thing happens when I go to the washroom and the sinks are wet. I even go to the extent of wiping the other sinks even if I didn't really use them.
6. I'm always hungry - I love to eat. =) Who doesn't, right?!? But the thing is, even if I eat a lot or feel so full after a big meal, I see myself getting hungry after an hour or two. I don't know why, really. And I don't think I'm sick or something. I hope not. I'm just a lil weird and so is my tummy. ;-)
Weird enough? Wachutink? Hehehe! I can't tag 6 people to do this since I don't have enough blogmates. So whoever gets to read this, you might wanna give it a try. ;-)

Friday the 13th
Most people say that if a Friday falls on the 13th of the month, you should be more careful because something bad might happen. Some also say that Friday the 13th is an "unlucky" day. Not for me.
You see, after 4 months of not "chatting", he was the first one to send me an IM. That is probably because what he was asking me for was really urgent. Oh well, whatever! I just want to let him know that I was glad he did. Even if he'll just ask me if I can lend him a Vista or Office 2007 CD installer, or if I know someone who's selling his/her laptop, or what does he need to do if his pc is not working, I will surely appreciate it. Heck, maybe even if he says he's getting married, I'd still appreciate it.
I'm pretty resigned to the fact that we will NEVER be a couple. I certainly know that. All I want now is for us to have a "normal" relationship, a "normal" friendship. Hope you're ok with that.

Goodbye Elliott
Sob. Sob. Sob.
Elliott Yamin was voted off American Idol, leaving Taylor Hicks and Katharine McPhee to battle it out next week. Taylor Hicks is fun to watch and Kat McPhee is a pretty sight, but for me Elliott is the best singer and should be the next American Idol.
Obviously, America thinks otherwise. But it was not that easy for the Americans. Elliott lost by an extremely narrow margin. He received 33.06 percent of the final tally, a record 50 million votes. The other singers got 33.26 and 33.68 percent of the votes. It was that close. Aargh...
Elliott Yamin might not have won the title, but surely, great things are just about to come his way. The end of a good thing is the start of something better.
Goodbye for now, Elliott.

An open letter to my mommy
My dearest mommy,
Hey mommy! Belated happy mother’s day! I’m sorry if I wasn’t able to visit you last Sunday. You know naman that it’s only daddy who knows how to drive (well, Candy knows how but she doesn’t have her license yet and I don’t trust her, hehe) and since it was raining in the morning, daddy decided not to push through with the plan anymore. He’s not getting any younger and with the bad weather and all, it would be hard for him to drive all the way from Paranaque to Marikina. Hehe, isisi ba sa daddy? :-) Anyhow, Angelo, his wife Vina, and the kids, Inna & Luigi were able to make it and they went straight to Paranaque after. And oh yeah, I think you were able to see Galo too coz Angelo said Bwana also dropped by your place. :-)
Well, today is another special day coz it’s your birthday. Happy, happy birthday mommy! :-) So how does it feel to be 66? :-) I'm pretty sure you're missing us up there but then again I know that you're always looking after us down here. I also know that you're always with us, as if you didn't leave at all. It feels great to have our own guardian angel. Hehe!
So what's up? What's summer like in heaven? :D Down here, to say that it's hot is an understatement. It's super duper crazy hot!!! But you know how pinoys are. Sunny/Hot weather=Summer=Beach=FUN,FUN,FUN. Not too many people complaining, which is a good thing. We'll also go to the beach end of the month. It's my first time with a new set of friends, new co-workers, and I'm positive we'll have a good time. :) Oh yeah, don't worry about me, I won't go swimming (since I don't know how hehe) or skinny-dipping (hahaha!), but I'll try to get my feet and my hair wet somehow. Hehehe!
Hey mommy, I need to go now. People here in the office might notice I'm not really working :P Just remember that I love you so much. Please continue to look after us. 'Will talk to you soon.
Love,
Colette

It's my first time with a new set of friends, new co-workers, and I'm positive we'll have a good time. :) Oh yeah, don't worry about me, I won't go swimming (since I don't know how hehe) or skinny-dipping (hahaha!), but I'll try to get my feet and my hair wet somehow. Hehehe!
Hey mommy, I need to go now. People here in the office might notice I'm not really working :P Just remember that I love you so much. Please continue to look after us. 'Will talk to you soon.
Love,
Colette

Don't let Elliott go home yet, pls...
I'm a big fan of American Idol and this year I'm hoping Elliott Yamin will end up the winner. He's the short guy with weird-looking ears, hehe, but definitely has a great singing voice. Last night, for his second performance, he sang the song "Home." As usual, I was impressed but I also had the same reaction as Simon's. I was worried that America might send him home because of the lyrics of the song. But Elliott made it clear that he didn't want to go home yet --- I hope the whole America will let him stay --- and eventually win this year's AI. :-)
I reminded my brother last night to not text me the results especially if it's bad news. Well, he texted me alright and he said that I'd be happy with the results. Hmm...

No more ym - that's what they think!
When I got back from lunch today, our IT guy told me that he needed to uninstall the yahoo messenger from my computer. I was like "Ha? Bakeeettt?!?" which was then followed by another question. "As in now na?" He didn't really need to answer my second question coz he was already infront of my helpless pc and was doing his thing (it sounds dirty, but you know what I mean :P). While he was robbing me off my "life," our IT guy told me the reason behind the "robbery." I didn't absorb it though. When he was done, I told him "hindi ako magte-thank you!" and he laughed. I usually say thanks whenever he does something on my pc and that was one thing I didn't appreciate. But hey, life goes on. :-)
Actually, I can still log on to my ym even if it was already deleted from my pc. Ako pa! Hehe! I'm not going to re-install it, there's another way. Hehe! And besides, bawal lang naman pag nahuli eh. Haha!

Bitterly
Bitterly watching a breaking heart
Funny how we never learn
From the very start
Bitterly once, bitterly twice
Over and over again, we roll the dice.
These are the lines that have been playing constantly in my mind. It's been months since I last played that cd and yet, I can still hear Chikoy Pura singing softly in my ears. Talk about LSS.
So am I bitter?
Yes.
I was.
Happy and sad.
Sorry and thankful.
Longing.
Indifferent.
Mixed emotions, baby.
It's all good.

Bitterly
chikoy pura (the jerks)
Separately living alone in misery
Blindly coping with the pain in my heart
Desperately sitting
In a corner hurting silently
Trying to make a change
But don't know where to start
Together, you and I will be together
But nothing last forever
For hearts made of clay
September, time for me to know
You've got another
Doesn't really matter
I just wished you could have stayed
But I know it's rather late
Bitterly watching a breaking heart
Funny how we never learn
From the very start
Bitterly once, bitterly twice
Over and over again, we roll the dice
Destiny tomorrow is uncertain
It hides inside secretly
Who knows while we're walking
In the streets one day
Constantly living for the day
Although it's empty
Waiting in the dark for the light of day
And dry my tears away
Funny how we never learn
From the very start

You're at it again
I must say you are doing a great job ignoring me. Not sure if you know me that well, but, you sure know how to ruin my day. Inspite of this, I can't bring myself to hate you. I'm pissed-off but like what one of my friends told me, I'm also a martyr when it comes to you. So sige lang, keep on ignoring me. Who knows, it might help me realize that you're really not TheOne for me.
