#kuya's

Namiss ko dito yung sarili kong kwarto. Mas masaya ako nung pinalipat ako dito (para makapag review for boards) compared nung binigay sa akin yung isang unit ng apartment namin (na binawi din. haha. lahat binabawi sa akin. hindi naman ako badgirl. haha.) Mas homey kapag nasa tunay na kwarto. Ang masaya lang naman sa unit eh sariling CR at ref. 

Ako yung nakikikwarto lang pero akin yung pinakamalaki. Haha. Andun padin sa room ibang stuffs ko. Balak ko mag request bumalik dito kapag need ko na magreview ng compre for gradschool.

Dami nagtataka pano ako nakatagal sa bahay na to bago ksi mabili nila kuya eh merong mga creepy na kwento tungkol dito. 

Sabi ni daddy, matapang daw talaga ako. ang di nila alam, hahaha. Sobrang tapang ko. kasi talagang meron akong nadidinig at napapanaginipan, pero keri naman di naman nila ako inistorbo sa pag aaral ko. hahaha. :DDD

Kuya's Special Lumpiang Sariwa

"Maari mo namang ipagdasal ang taong gusto mo at ibibigay siya sa'yo ng Diyos kahit hindi naman siya ang talagang inilaan para sa'yo. Ito ay para ikaw na rin mismo ang makatuklas kung bakit hindi talaga kayo ang para sa isa't isa." - Jonathan Dabu (not verbatim)

Yesterday, my 'malanding' wish of singing together with a guy who endlessly plays the piano for me came true. :)) (It was with my kuyas in church, though, so there's no malice involved)

I spent the first hour with kuya Jon who really is my idol for his great passion in music and genuine devotion to God. Kuya willingly played the piano for me while we were waiting for the despedida and bienvenida party for our pastors to start. (It actually started with me pestering him to teach me how to play but after learning the C to B plus Em on the piano, I gave up and just promised that I'll surprise him someday within the next 20 years with my piano skills.) There was never a time, though, that he finished a song because every time a question popped out of my mind, I'll immediately ask it to him and even though it broke his momentum, he still happily answered me with all that he could. (The one above was one of the things he shared to me.)

The next 3 hours, on the other hand, were spent with kuya Lester who is like the next kuya Jon of our church. The time with him was just pure singing. I think we only stopped a little to joke about random stuff. He was asking me since time immemorial to join the Praise and Worship team of our church but I was too shy and was not confident enough with my voice nor with my guitar skills (blame me for not taking my Rondalla classes seriously back in high school and leaving my dear guitar untouched and dusty for years now. Uggh). Last Saturday, however, he was able to convince me to be his back-up singer and I couldn't argue anymore.

After some time, he got tired of playing the piano so we shifted to the guitar. He taught me the chords for some PAW songs. I think I wasn't a good student since I kept on forgetting the chords but he patiently taught me until I got them all right (I still have doubts with this, though). That moment, I promised myself to bring out my guitar from wherever it was put in, buy a new set of strings (problem is I'm not good at tuning it) and practice, practice, practice so as to get better.

I really had fun yesterday and I hope it can happen every weekend, especially now that classes are going to start. You see, for me singing without ceasing is really detoxifying.
