Emceerious Living

October 21, 2006

This entry was supposed to be posted in my Friendster blog account but because I’m using a proxy site. It failed to upload..

 

I haven’t been blogging in my friendster account because: a) I have limited access to Friendster during weekdays and I’d rather sleep on weekends; b) My updating is limited to accepting friends and testimonials, reading e-mails; b) Friendster isn’t “friends”-ter anymore but “met-this-person-once”-ter yet I don’t want these met-this-people-once’s deleted because who knows what will happen tomorrow but I don’t want them to know updates I’d only disclose to close friends; c) I have a boring life -  there’s nothing bloggable in the dailiness of it; d) I keep another blog account but neither do I  disclose the access because it’s for purposes of storage of my random ramblings and emceerisms.

 

Well, Anyway, so you’re asking what made me blog now?

 

I felt so down this week. My self-esteem is at its lowest and I want to go ego-shopping! (I’d rather not talk about the reason) I want to cry. Ayoko nung tulo lang ng luha effect! Gusto ko hagulhol galore! I asked my friend Marilyn to schedule that in one of our sessions, a lungangian sa pag-iyak session. She found the idea ridiculous! Who wouldn’t want to cry like a toddler lost in a mall. WAAAAH! Ang ganda kaya ng idea… so self-liberating! hihi

 

Then, I browsed through the Friendster testimonial I received through the years. Ended up counting my blessings: hilarious friends, unspeakable memories, contagious laughters, mauulit-pa-kayang mischiefs. In the end I thought of giving back to these people the ecstasy they brought. The original plan was supposed to be an individual testimonial for friends and how thankful I am for having them but the access is veeeerrrrry sloooow because I am just using a proxy site. >:) hihi  Eureka! The blog! The blahg! The people I’m really thankful for may not actually read this but I hope the angels will tell them that someone out here is thankful for them. I also want the blogging community to know how not-so-great Emcee can have too many great friends. Talking about ironic life!

 

 

 

To all my friends: EconSoc, Lamdans, Rhoans, high school barkada, CSC, manongs, manangs, housemates, pseudo-housemates, taga-SMB itaas mo!, ka-RA, taga-Sykes, et cetera et cetera, I miss you all. It’s been more that a couple of years since I graduated but as I always say, “ you can take me out of UPLB but you cannot take UPLB out of me.” Dugong LB to ‘tol!  Now that I am working, when insanity creeps me, it is among my UPLB friends I regained my sanity from, as always. In the end, the unbearable becomes… still unbearable yet fashionably unbearable.

 

To my housemates, Maui, Mica, Ghia, Xyza, for the company I am so enjoying, for the things housemates share, for the things sisters share, Tenchu! Thanks most especially making our place my comfort zone . A hash bar in disguise because of natural high I get in your company! Yeaaah! No matter how serious or how grim life gets, thanks for adding a comic strip to it! Looking forward to our themed parties!

 

To the EconSoc whose text and emails never fail to make me smile and wish I could time travel. Special mention to the following—

Tin: for the daily dose of prayers, thanks so much! For the constant sweet nothings… nakakagaan ng loob sobra!

Joyce: Drama queen whom I lost to law school. I miss you so much! Thanks for never failing to remember us kahit iba na ang set of friends mo… bigatin na eh! hikhik!

Byn: for the art of chismisan and update-an we have! (Actually, this week Byn and I were exchanging emails. She wants me to update her of the latest chismax. I barely know anything and though she is in the great US of A, she must have known more. We exchanged updates of common friends but there weren’t anything juicy. In the end, I just updated her with the latest SHOWBIZ chismax… I promised to save more and send her issues of Star Studio, Tiktik, Bosero, atbp. haha.)

Bart: Freeeend! Sa constant Gnyt message kahit na alam mong nagsisimula pa lang ang araw ko by the time I receive that. Gnyt!

Gabe: Thanks for the being the one-text-away gimik buddy!

Jacque: Salamat sa time-to-time chika kumara. Kumareng kumara na ang level natin! hehe

Plong: Cousin! Miss you!.. la lang

Mikmik: Misha partner!

 

To the resident Lambdan, special mention to our lineage (*inaanak CHE),-ang kinaiinggitang bloodline ng soro haha, thanks for always making us feel welcome and important! Looking forward to our golden glittering year!

 

To Corly, Cesar, Rey, Adan, BJ, Bon D., Bon Q., Con, Daisy, Gabe I MISS YOU GUYS! Looking forward to another siraan-ng-buhay-wala-ng-bukas-masakit-maghiwalay trip! We need another UBE!

 

To Marilyn, Martha, Jo-ann, Lette, Germs, Jansen. Thanks for making OSMA still a tolerable place for me. Thanks for being there during my ego-shopping moments!

 

To all the kids I see everyday, thanks for reminding me to listen to the child in me: the impractical, unrealistic, and very vulnerable to joy child in me!

 

 

In books, the acknowledgment page begins the writings. In movies, it is at the end. Since I’m no writer nor movie-maker, I say my thank you’s anytime I want. As to what part of my life’s chapter I am, I don’t know too. Let’s ask Ma’am Bello!
