“At Seventeen”
Janis Ian

I learned the truth at seventeen
That love was meant for beauty queens
And high school girls with clear skinned smiles
Who married young and then retired
The valentines I never knew
The Friday night charades of youth
Were spent on one more beautiful
At seventeen I learned the truth…

And those of us with ravaged faces
Lacking in the social graces
Desperately remained at home
Inventing lovers on the phone
Who called to say “come dance with me”
And murmured vague obscenities
It isn’t all it seems at seventeen…

A brown eyed girl in hand me downs
Whose name I never could pronounce
Said: “Pity please the ones who serve
They only get what they deserve”
The rich relationed hometown queen
Marries into what she needs
With a guarantee of company
And haven for the elderly…

So remember those who win the game
Lose the love they sought to gain
In debitures of quality and dubious integrity
Their small-town eyes will gape at you
In dull surprise when payment due
Exceeds accounts received at seventeen…

To those of us who knew the pain
Of valentines that never came
And those whose names were never called
When choosing sides for basketball
It was long ago and far away
the world was younger than today
when dreams were all they gave for free
to ugly duckling girls like me…

We all play the game, and when we dare
We cheat ourselves at solitaire
Inventing lovers on the phone
Repenting other lives unknown
That call and say: “Come on, dance with me”
And murmur vague obscenities
At ugly girls like me, at seventeen…

FREAKY!!! SHIYET!! November 29, 2005

Shet, freaky talaga.. di ko alam kung ano dapat maging reaction ko dun.. dapat bang i-consider as a sign of good attitude nung tao o hinde?! osige, kwento ko muna.

after math class it was raining super duper hard.. so nag-toki na lang kami ni joelle and kervin (wala kasi siyang payong).. then biglang nag-decide si kervin na mag-mrt na lang siya and go to megamall instead of his usual katips route.. grabe talaga yung ulan.. para bang pressurized shower yun.. haha! anyway.. yun. nakatayo lang kami sa MRT coz marami nang tao when we got in. siguro it was in the CUBAO station na may pumasok na malaking mama na nakasuot ng black na military outfit.. (complete with the gun on his leg pa..) talaga namang napaka-insensitive.. he grabbed the safety-handle right between mine and kervin’s faces.. (well kasi naman, yung height ko hanggang chest lang nung mamang sundalong yun..) so bumaba na si kervin sa ortigas station.. leaving me ipit sa gitna ni mamang sundalo and some other big fat guy.. pag dating sa ayala station.. TAMA BANG HAWAKAN AKO SA BALIKAT AS IF TO GUIDE ME THROUGH THE CROWD?! SHIT F**K TALAGA!! OMG!! super freaky talaga nun.. kaya tuloy pag baba ko from the mrt, takbo na ko pataas ng stairs (escalator?!) tapos sakay na agad ng bus to sucat.. so yun, mejo relieved na ko nun.. dun ako umupo sa bandang likod coz sucat pa naman ang baba ko.. tapos… my gad, bigla nalang may malaking anino na dumaan.. SI MAMANG SUNDALO NANAMAN!! GAD!! at kahit sobrang DAMING vacant seats around me.. talaga namang dun pa siya sa tabi ko umupo.. with matching “tabi tayo ha..”eh kung sipain ko kaya siya noh?!

mamang sundalo: ikaw yung nakasabay ko kanina sa mrt diba? *smile*

me: *nod*

mamang sundalo: san ka nag-aaral?

me: *points at the “I LOVE UP” button pinned to my bag*

mamang sundalo: talaga? you’re lucky napasa mo yung entrance test ng UP!

(oh diba may pa-english-english pang nalalaman itong si mamang sundalo..)

me: *nod*

mamang sundalo: saan ka bababa?

me: *mutters* sucat..

mamang sundalo: yung kapit bahay namin valedictorian pero hindi siya nakapasa sa entrance ng UP.. ang galing mo siguro..

me: *nod*

mamang sundalo: ang layo naman ng biyahe mo araw araw..

me: *nod*

GRAAAABE!!! buti di ako nahimatay sa kaba nun.. tapos, to make matters worse, may tumabi pa sakin na isa pang super laking pulis.. in blue naman.. gad, muka na akong may mga bodyguard.. shet talaga. edi yun, pag dating sa bicutan, sabi ni sundalo: “tayo ka muna ha, bababa na ako..” (kasi ako yung nakaupo sa side ng aisle..) gad, pag tayo ko banaman hinawakan uli ako sa balikat (both hands ha..) para bang di ako marunong tumayo eh noh?! SCARY!! grabe, i felt more scared than i did watching the exorcism of emily rose.=P hai.

yun lang naman yung exciting na nangyari.. and if you want to know, right now i am eating chocolate.. hershey’s milk chocolate nuggets to be exact.=P

anyway.. walang pasok bukas!! yay! saya. but actually okay lang naman sakin pumasok coz yun nga, i feel productive.. haha! (abno eh noh.?) gusto ka mag-lakwa ulit.. kaso la na ko money.. aww broke. haha! well siguro it’s a sign.. kelangan ko na daw buklatin ang aking calculus at philo book.. for the first time.. hahaha! sige, i shall try. or maybe not.. ewan, bahala na.. diba? why plan? be spontaneous! spontaneity is the key to an exciting life diba? sana.. hehe.. sige, yun na lang muna.. gudbye!

okay lang.. mejo pasado naman sa aking expectations ang week ko.. though not as eventful as i had hoped. gusto ko na talaga manuod ng “the exorcism of emily rose”.. hai.. pero since la ako kasama and mejo walang time this week, yun.. ewan. wala pa rin ako masyadong schoolwork after this week.. just a group report for Kasaysayan which would probably happen next year na. ganito ba talaga buhay sa UP? oh well, not that i’m complaining. I just finished doing laundry a while ago. apparently, i am NOT a helpless little git who doesn’t know how to do anything but watch TV, eat, text, and sleep. *not a very comforting thought, eh?* so anyway.. i got to thinking. *well, no not really, more like deeply pondering..* what i ought (pronounced \oth\ by my philo prof.. wahahaha!) to busy myself with this sem.. may gusto akong gawin eh.. di ko lang talaga alam kung ano.. weird. bahala na nga. i wil just continue to busy myself with thinking about what to busy myself with.. (whut??) sounds like something from a philo book.. haha!

speaking of books.. like i said, hanggang first few pages lang ako dun sa PET SEMATARY.. i have yet to progress from that one single page.. kasi if i leave it for a while, i’d have to read it all over again to get back into the story’s mood.. then i’d abandon it again.. then i’d have to read it again. wala na kasi akong reading time eh.. i used to have a lot of that. bakit kaya ngayon wala na? what’s wrong with the world!? haha! i hope something is.. i’d hate to think i’d outgrown my love for reading.. =P hai. ohwell.. anyone ctc? *blech*

naaaliw na naman ako. ewan. basta. labo ba? haha.. ganun na yun.. (quote, mr.wee) yun.. basta yun.. ganun. haha! comment na nga lang kayo. =)

“monayan” moments November 22, 2005

ganun na ba katagal since i last blogged? well after that entry you wouldn’t believe how sharp a turn my world took. (?) super badtrip ako in the days that followed.. ngayon mejo hindi na coz of school and everything. (i saw that begging dog nga pala ulit.. ^_^) anyway..

basta kasi so many things kept popping up of nowhere as if intentionally piling up and ruining my day. theres this… and that…. (never mind.. baka mabasa eh..=P) hay naku. well buti na lang yun.. (i said earlier that i was excited to see what was in store for me this week?! damn! haha!) today CS lang at math53 classes ko. i got to school an hour early for my first class so i went to the eng’g cafe muna para tumambay.. but i saw Red there all alone, singing (i think..) and studying? well anyway, i joined him.. ate baked mac (mmm..) then we saw paolo.. he joined us.. then jen, then joelle.. yay the futakada is complete! haha! then we had an m.e. in CS.. okay lang naman, sa kabutihang palad naman nakuha ko rin.. that’s 10 points up the grade ladder.. =) haha! .. then yun, nagquiz naman kami sa math.. hay ewan! i hate math!! yun na lang masasabi ko..=P grrr.

*i’m so loving smart wi-fi right now.. ang saya mag-download!! haha!=)) (uy hinde.. masama mag-download.. STOP PIRACY! oh diba?!) haha!*

oh yeah, i started reading a book now.. Stephen King’s Pet Sematary.. as in started lang talaga.. first page.. haha! that’s the usual thing.. then after 10 pages magsasawa ako.. then onto a new book!! haha! well i hope not.. i really like Stephen King’s stuff.. weird and freaky.. especially when i’m reading them late into the night under a lamp..=) yay.. hehe..=) ochige, i shall read na.. goobay!

Ang Saya November 20, 2005

just got home. gad it’s been a really great weekend for me. prolly coz i didn’t have as much boredom moments as others. so that’s pretty much where i can infer that boredom constitutes a bad day. diba nga kahapon i was out with friends.. tapos ngayon naman wala uli ako sa bahay.. (di ko na ikkwento ang araw ko.. it’s forever in my head na..) haha =) kaya masaya. yun lang masasabi ko.

wee i just feel like singing right now.. para bang my life is great. who knew that a few events could change your outlook on life? *whew* that’s such a relief. i thought i would be eternally damned with a negative outlook on life. but i guess that can change sometimes. school na naman tomorrow.. some people would complain.. me? YAY!!! i love school! i love my classmates, i love my friends.. i love my profs.. i love about anything right now.. =) *sharing my happiness with the whole entire world* para bang “spread the good news” eh noh..? haha!

(sarap ng hershey’s…)

naaastigan ako ngayon sa aking playlist.. new songs in my library:

  1. don’t love you no more - craig david
  2. hey now, hey now (don’t dream it’s over) - crowded house
  3. kung wala ka - hale
  4. believe - josh groban
  5. high - lighthouse family
  6. gitara - parokya ni edgar

pagbigyan nyo na ang aking temporarily different taste in music as of the moment.. hehe. suggestion: revisit some older music. di yung super luma na like 70s or whatever.. yung mga songs that you used to listen to but not anymore.. it’s a nice way of reliving some old memories.. it’s like older memories and experiences come back to you. well, for me ganun yun. i have a way of associating events with song kasi eh.. (call me sentimental..) so it’s just like looking at a photo album, but better.. kasi pati yung mood naaalala ko. =) *saya talaga ng buhay noh?!*

plus, it didn’t rain this weekend.=) always a good sign. i’m so excited to know what’s in store for me this week.. *smilez*

one well spent saturday November 19, 2005

finally, napanood ko na rin ang harry potter.. okay lang siya.. yun lang masasabi ko. but anyway, it was still a nice experience coz kasama ko uli friends ko, and that’s always a GOOD thing. kasama ko si cheka, si paolo (friend ni cheka), si mikey at si philip.. :) the usual crew.=P hehe. we met up sa town at around 12 past or something.. then ate lunch tapos nag-timezone at kung anu ano pa to pass time before the 3:00 showing of harry potter. we went to the cinemas at around 2:00 so we could get good seats.. but LO AND BEHOLD!! grabe nang haba ng pila!! as in haba talaga! but anyway, we were able to get good-enough seats at the back of the cinema.. after the movie, nag pizza hut kami, naglakad-lakad.. nag timezone ulit.. grabe, nag-dance rev kami ni philip dun… wahahaha! super matatawa kayo if you saw us.. (well ako lang actually yung super bano..) haha! nakakahiya pa coz there were some people watching us dun sa likod namin.. haha! hai.. then sumabay ako kila philip pauwi.. ;) masayang araw. a nice capping to an already so-so week.:)

napansin ko lang, mas dumaldal na ako ever since pumasok ako sa UP. (joelle kasi? haha joke..) de, ewan ko ba kung bakit.. kanina tuloy while i was with my friends, babble ako ng babble.. bigla ko na lang mapapansin in the middle of a very long sentence na super daldal ko na.. haha! but i like that better than being a quiet sue.=P i think.. hehe. (wee.. katext ko siya…..) haha.. :) la lang.. hai.. i think that’s enough to describe my short but eventful day. looking forward to another one tomorrow. =) till next blog.. (blagag?!*sound effects?*) haha.. okai.. dito na lang.
