The paper holds their folded faces to the floor

Posted on May 12, 2007 by batjay

weird things about myself:

tatlong beses ako kung maligo araw-araw kahit malamig
minsan, pag ako lang mag-isa ang nakasakay sa elevator, umuutot ako.
may dilaw na manok na nakasabit sa ding-ding ng opisina ko na umiiyak pag pinipisil
parati akong may dalang spiderman doll sa mga business trip
pag nag-iisa lang ako, tinatanong ko sa sarili ko kung may ilokano sa tower of babel
pag nag concentrate ako, kaya kong pagalawin ang tenga ko
nung bata pa ako, gusto kong magkaroon ng buhok sa kili-kili
pag talagang nag concentrate ako, kaya kong pagalawin ang kanang suso ko
pag nangungulangot ako, minsan hinlalaki ang ginagamit ko
hindi ko kayang pagalawin ng magkasabay ang tenga ko at kanang suso

halos pareho tayo ng tnatakbo ng buhay…isang OFW…hmmm parang konti lang ang OFW na taga Notre…specially nung nasa Saudi ako…2 taga Notre lang ang alam ko na nandun…yung isa kasama ko sa work pero takbo kaagad at nag TNT dyan sa amerika nung nagkaroon ng chance bigyan ng traning ng company…i forgot the name pero he’s much on later batch than me…(batch 77 me…)…and the second one was guess who…si Mr. Frank Uy…the music and science? nga ba teacher….he called me while I was on cue sa isang padalahan ng pera duon..he is in-charge or somewhat the manager duon ng SSS…SSS employee sya…I believe nandun pa sya taking care of OFWs SSS requirements….

umepekto talaga ang ating natutunan sa notre hehehee…i was laughing at your post to see it polo natin naka butones kundi ii-stapler ni de luna ang polo kapag nakabukas….

si Tibo…malaking bagay din ahhhh….

yun bro mo si Howlin’ Dave…once na meet ko yan during the Folk Rock Country Revival sa Rizal Memorial…sya ang inaawitan namin mag emcee para sa concert…..pero we dont know meron syang utol na taga notre that time…karamihan ng coordinator ng concert na yon is from Notre Dame batch 77 kaso nga lang it was a sad experience nagka stampede….:( tanda ko pa yosi ng utol mo (howlin’ dave) that time…Camel…filter kings…hehehehe….

just sharing some thoughts sayo….and memories…tagal ko na basa ang mga blog mo…i emailed you once…then you replied pero matagal na yon….

“animo notre dame beat marist” ang sinisigaw nung panahon namin at PRADA na yung pangalan ng league. salamat sa dalaw at ingat diyan sa shanghai.

i remember mr. uy – he was a music teacher. i didn’t have the privilege of being under him because he left when we were in high school. but our batch did invite him to judge our music extravaganza.

oo nga pala, nagkita kami nina tibo nung december sa manila. it was a good thing he showed up – i’ve been wanting to meet him for the longest time to say thank you for being part of my life. i’ve even included mr and mrs chaves in the acknowledgement of my book.

ingat.

batjay and chinaman,

Kuya BatJay,

hindi naman kailangan magkaroon ng dahilan kung bakit mayroong dilaw na manok sa opisina ang isang tao.

why am i interested kung bakit may ilokano sa tower of babel? wala lang. naisip ko kasi, kung tutuo yung kwento sa bible, dapat may mga ilokano doon sa itaas ng tower.

#2 – ay grabe lol. tapos pag biglang may pumasok sa elevator, kunyari dedma?

# 3 n 4 – self-explanatory

#5 – is there a tinge of acerbity here? 😉

#6 – when not concentrating, anong pinagagalaw mo? lol…

#7 – weird is when you finally grew some hair there and now enjoys shaving your kili-kili

#4 – yung spidey doll is your answer to mr. bean’s teddy bear

#9 – reminds me of the joke- ” why do gorillas have big nostrils? because they have big fingers!” hehheh
