BLAME IMPLUSE IM A SKINHEAD NOW!!!! hahahah PLUS MY TIBETAN OBSESSIONS. happy new year.

I would probably have continued staring at nothingness if my dad's much-awaited adobo's aroma

did not reach my senses.  Last day of 2005.

I knew it from the moment my eyes fluttered open and caught the ceiling that our house, at 2 in

the afternoon, had been bustling in a festive mood for quite some time already.  I also had the

somehow sad realization that that was the last waking up for 2005.

Mom has kept herself busy preparing dishes that would accompany us in welcoming 2006. 

Ridiculous amount of food to be partaken by only the three or four of us. Hahaha.  Mind you, later,

I know it perfectly and I can already picture it quite vividly as early as now, Mom will fret upon

seeing everything she prepared has been barely eaten.  Moms are always like that.

New Year.

My 20th New Year's Eve.

I am always fascinated with the thought that the earth has sucessfully completed another

revolution.  I also find it wonderful that this is a world-wide event (Christmas only applies to

Christians) and that countries basically are united even by the sole word "celebration".

Some, when they 'New Year', would more or less imagine firecrackers and noise pollution.  These

only come second to my list.  When I hear 'New Year', I can almost see Europe and Asia and the

rest of the continents, how the Earth looks like if you're in outer space just looking at it, and a

poster of all the flags of all the nations.  Resolutions would come third.  I guess I really love

Geography.

Always the day of recalling as well.

Let me enumerate some of my well-remembered encounters this 2005.

1)  Sister and niece went migrating to US (sad)
2)  Have had many pimples like never before (sad)
3)  OJT days (happy)
4)  Ended up a relationship (sad)
5)  Have had my 20th bday (sad)
6)  Appreciated my friends' existence more (happy)
7)  Witnessed my sister's wedding (happy)
8)  Finally made it to Puerto Galera (happy)

kakatamad na mag-isip.

This attitude, I want to change.

Happy New Year World.

I unearthed this picture from Emili’s friendster profile.

So brave of me to post this.  Hindi ako nagpapacute putang ina.

I was just overwhelmed with the alarmingly unmerciful fact that this was taken just barely a year ago, and I seem so young here.  My hair?  My skinnier frame?  Aging manifests shockingly rapidly.

We all look really younger here!  All of us in this photo!  Taxation?  Thesis?  Time?  Hahaha.  What is there to blame?  Cracks me big time.

I miss this look of mine.  And this look of mine alone. 

No, really, I miss her company.

No, really, I am not considering continuing typing this entry for lame fun.

Defensive?  Fuck you.

As I was listening to, again, one of Gregorian Chant's songs, I suddenly felt, again, an unwanted tugging on my shirt.  Figuritively.  The very same thing that has been happening to me for the past two years.

She is the one.

For the love of God, it's been two years and still, I keep on catching myself inhaling the bitter-sweet air of impossible desire, mouth half-open, staring in utter nothingness (like the stereotypical angsts we normally read), everytime she comes sweeping my mind off this seemingly sane zone my personality has been tolerating on and off.  She's so beautiful.  She's the most beautiful girl I have set my eyes upon, I swear by the orangest robe in Tibet.

I'm smiling right now.  Oh, the mere thought of her. (-:  And the memory of the amazing fact that, when we were still both 18, she wore nothing more than flats for school shoes but still managed to shed her magical aura on me with her towering posture.  Oh help me God.  I was just in the next classroom!  And the second she almost lost her balance as we were ascending the stairs of AB.  How I saw her blushed! 

When will I get over her? 

When?

Names can make us crazy.  Her name makes me the craziest.
