just because there are 14,000,000 people in manila

doesn't mean i will not hear the skeetons rattling in your closet.
i'm very audient :p

besides, i can't help who i know, and who they know
so there is a big chance i will know of you.
especially if you talk shit about me even if we don't know each other.

Double-Duty

Visita Iglesia+Lomocrawl

Finished a roll and a half of 120s and a few shots on the oktomat. The lomos are yet to be processed. Hit a roadblock with the oktomat when the advance crank got stuck. Had to rewind the film so good luck ... hope double exposures work with the oktomat also.
In the meantime, some phone cam pics :p

pia and alfred, my favourite couple in the universe (haha i'm biased, sorry)

i held court.
took my crown out of the chest, and put it on.

my high counsel
i wanted them to tell me that i made the wrong choice, that i should fight to the death.
to claim and own what i believe to be mine
to hold on and to stand fast

but they didn't

because they saw that it was futile
that it was not worth it
that it was false

they made me realize that armed with brutal honesty, i was capable of making sound judgement
i needed no validation
i knew
i knew all along.

aww,man. again?!

fork in the road

so where do i go and what do i do when i get there?
i'd like to be all quixotic and choose the road not taken but the road not taken was not taken for a reason, and at this point in my life, kamot-ulo moments might as well be laslas-pulso ones.

*uy run-on sentence haha*

I think i'll go buy na that hammock and guitar and live.

random post of an insomniac

i shy away from covers lalo na if i heart the original artist but sometimes, i change my mind.

smashing pumpkin's rendition was kadiri but ari hest did a wonderful job on fleetwood mac's landlside. seven million hearts. i want to marry him :p
cassandra wilson owned neil young's harvest moon.
and dilana (of rockstar supernova) who is nakakatakot, was nakakakilabot in a good way when she did the tapang cover of johnny cash's ring of fire.

my pinaka hate? pizzicato 5's version of girl from ipanema.
buwiset.

Cleansed

He asked if I was okay and I didn't realize that I badly needed to be asked.
Words and tears flowed.
He didn't say he understood, or that he could relate, or that he knew where I was coming from.
He just listened and he listened well.

I tasted the sea on my face and it was cleansing.

I can stop writing now.
