You got TaggED

Hay naku. chain mail sa blog world. 8 things about me raw o. Well, at least I’ve got something to write about.  Arnold slap-tagged me dun sa janjajanjantonk which is another one of my notoriously abandoned blogs. At dahil blocked ang friendster sa trabaho, aba, e di dito na lang magsusulat si Ineng.

8 bits of dianne.

1. Una, this is my one-two-three.. FIFTH blog. I’ve created blogs in deadjournal, livejournal, blogger, fwendster, and finally wordpress. Most died a natural death. The longest running was this one. The friendster one is still alive mostly because my friendster account is active and every now and then, I run out of space in About Me. Not really too sure about the number, though. I have some vague memory of opening a blog at blogspot and another one from a website i cannot recall. From this point on, though, five is the official number.

2. Pangalawa, I know I put up a pretty (emphasis!) brave front, but I’m scared shitless of anything supernatural.  Hindeng-hinde mo ako mapapadaan sa stairwell between the 14th and 12th floors of our building. Nor can you leave me in an unfamiliar unlit room by myself for more than 30 seconds. Nakabalukot  sa ilalim ng kumot kapag madilim at natatakot si Dianne. Sa bahay namin, tinatakbuhan ko yung kid brother ko pumatay ng ilaw when we stay up late. I would literally go running to my room even before he can turn the tv off. He was 11 then, I was 24.

3. Closet kikay ako. I’d rather leave the details to your imagination.

4. I took professional driving lessons when I was 18 and bumming around for an entire semester in Cagayan de Oro. I actually know how to drive, “know” being a mental operation. With a cigarette between the fingers of my left hand and the steering wheel under my right hand, I was on my way to becoming dianne-the-almighty-roadwarrior. But no. That story will be left for another day.

5. My mother enrolled me in a ballet class when I was a pudgy little girl of 4.  Yes, there was a ballet recital. And yes, there are pictures of me in morbidly embarassing poses with itchy fufu lace on.  Excited ako sa recital kasi sabi nung instructor namin may awards raw. Aba, aba, aba. Walang award si Dianne.

6. My parents thoroughly convinced me of my dancing prowess when I was in Grade School. Sumayaw ako ng Electric Youth, Ice Ice Baby, and some Smokey Mountain song that I have repressed to the far recesses of my mind.  Di ko maintindihan kung bakit wala nang naniniwala these days na ok ako sumayaw. Umiba na ata yung uso.

7. I dig fantasy fiction. Harry Potter is just soft stuff. Although I’ve never been a big fan of Stephen King’s macabre writing, his DarK Tower series is an absolute favorite. Two years na akong proud owner ng hardbound copy of Book 7 pero hindi ko pa sya binabasa because i still havent read the two books prior to it.

8. Malapit na bertdey ko..

pang-asar..

Well HEllo, Mr. MAn

You didn’t think I’d come back
You didn’t think I’d show up with my army
And this ammunition on my back
Now that I’m Miss Thing
Now that I’m a zillionaire
You scan the credits for your name

And wonder WHY its not there.

 - Alanis M.

still the song I dream of screaming at a thousand different faces.

yehey. spoken like a girl with a million things to prove.

love love love

Cheers to teenage angst. At sa iba pang ka-OA-han ng mundo. If you’re gonna feel bad, might as well be passionate about it.

na-depress ata ako bigla..

ok napilit ako magsulat. ang demanding ni jae.

napaisip lang ako kung bakit nga ba ako naaaliw these days sa kaka-download ng mga emo pic na depressing naman ang mga laman. well, i like looking at them. Kasi SWAK sila sa nararamdaman natin kapag tinatarantado at ginagago tayo.  I enjoy looking at them. Pwede na ba yun?

Because the world is full of assholes, and I have the misfortune of always meeting the biggets assholes of all time. Yung mga nagsasayang ng oras at pasensya mo. Yung mga di mo maiwan-iwan kasi stuck ka. Stuck ka at mag-isa ka.  At nakakatuwa na galing sa super-pangets na emotion na yun ay pwede pala magkaroon pa rin ng magagandang images.

Ang hirap, jae. Di ko masulat eh. Siguro all I’m really trying to say is that its nice to see that there are other people feeling low today. Di pala ako nag-iisa. Naks. And that’s something to be grateful for, in a bizaare kinda way.

So help me Im fascinated.

A friend, a good one at that, and a brilliant one furthermore, once considered staging a suicide attempt to get her guy’s attention. She has no need of his attention these days.

 Why do we crave for attention from people who don’t DESERVE ours?

Hindi na sapat ang sagot na “because I CHOSE HIM..”

Old Camiguin Trips

Stranded on a jetski in shark-infested waters, highschool kids teetering with laughter, a gin-infused bloodstream, a torturous stairway up and around a mountain that was built with penance as its purpose.. Forgotten names in a graveyard hidden under the sea, a summer getaway with three baby siblings grown up too soon and too fast.. 

Adamant

 My last trip as of today would have been summer 2005, home after four months in NY. Crossed the sea to Camiguin with Nico, Chris, Aya and Elaine. Candice ran over a dog on our way to the pier.  

 Sunrise at White Island

Don’t recall ever being drunk while in White Island. Do recall being wasted in the mainland in several of my highschool trips. Earliest memory: staying at Tia’s resort across the airport runway with family minus the three younger kids.

Ardent Hot Springs marks my favoritest spot. The walk up and down Katibawasan falls ruined the katibawasan spot for me.
