Ang gusto ko ay sumakay sa pag-ikot ng buhay
At pagtagal maging gabay sa iba pang sasakay
Gusto mo bang sumama
Gusto mo bang sumama

Nais ko lang naman magkasaysay itong buhay
Isang beses lang naman ito
Kung gusto mo di masyadong lalayo
Ng di ka mainip ika’y iaaliw sa aking perry’s will

Pasensya na at kung minsan tayo’y magaantay
Meron pa kasing iba na gusto pang sumakay
Wag kang malulula, ok lang naman kasi
Wag kang malulula

Nais ko lang naman magkasaysay itong buhay
Isang beses lang naman ito
Kung gusto mo di masyadong lalayo
Ng di ka mainip ika’y iaaliw sa aking perry’s will

Pagdating natin don malalaman mo
Kung bakit ka nandirito’t kasama mo ako
Tumingin ka na lang sa pinanggalingan mo

I watched the second season of Pinoy Big Brother and I really hated Wendy Valdez! My apologies to all Wendy fans out there but she really irritates me. And guess what! We came from the same high school and I’m just so ashamed of that fact. Makes me think about what the quality of education they’re now giving to students. Did you see her eating inside the PBB house? She always had her feet up on her chair and I even watched her a couple of times where she put her feet on the table. They weren’t actually eating those times but still… Siya na nga nagsabi na mukhang luya yung paa niya! And that’s the dining table for heaven’s sake! It’s just plain rude to me!

I’m definitely not going to watch her teleserye… not even if you pay me a HUGE amount of money.

I was surfing Nostalgia Manila the other day and food from my childhood suddenly came flashing back to me. Junk food, that is, and I miss it! I don’t know if you guys any of these that I’m going to mention…

Wonder Boy
Comes in white plastic with a cartoon of a boy in a spaceship, i think. These are round chips that is barbecue flavored and about three pieces per pack. I still can buy these in Malabon’s market.

M Egg
These are milk flavored candy tablets. I love these! It comes in white packaging too, three pieces per pack. It’s like Haw Haw (Milk flavored candy blocks in light blue pillow packs) but a little softer.

Milo
I don’t really know if this is the real name for it. They’re little chocolate blocks that’s like clay in texture.

Tira-tira
Now this one’s confusing… I remember in college that I told somebody about these candies and he brought me some but what he brought were red candies that’s like candy canes in texture. What I was referring to were red sticks that were translucent, kinda like Fox’s candy, and was thick as a pencil and about 4 or 5 inches long. And everyone I asked also referred to the candy cane textured ones so I was the one who’s probably wrong about the name.

Cherry Balls
Now this one, I think everyone’s familiar with this. Who could forget those sweet little red gum balls? Which leads me to the next one and also the next one after that.

Big Boy
I love these too! I just keep popping these pink gums into my mouth.

Bazooka Joe
I loved reading the comics that comes with these and sometimes I even get two comics in one gum! But I like Big Boy better than Bazooka Joe because it’s softer. And chewing on these tires my jaw.

There are lots more but I can’t remember all of them right now. I even remember that a bottle of Pop Cola, and I mean one bigger than the solo size, costs only P1.75. And I also remember those red lollipops that’s on a long, thin red sticks and the plastic cover’s colored red and green which, if I’m not mistaken, looked like a strawberry print.

Also, one time my friends and I were on our way to Anilao and we were singing along to Bob Marley’s Guava Jelly. Then I wondered aloud how guava jelly tastes like and they were a little surprised that I haven’t tasted it yet. They said said they’d eaten it when they were kids and it was actually their fave. Then they kept teasing me that I don’t have a childhood because I didn’t eat guava jelly when I was a kid. Haha!

Those were the days…

Duet by Kuh Ledesma and Richard Tann
Lyrics and Music by Louie Gonzalez

One of these days I’ll take you by the hand
And make you understand how much I love you

One of these nights when everything is calm
I’ll hold you in my arms and you’ll just know it

I don’t know what’s come over me
You came into my life too fast
I just know deep within me
This feeling’s gonna last
Forever and ever
We’ll be together
You and I

Maybe it’s time to share your life with mine
I’ll make it worth your while if you just let me

Once in your life just open up your heart
And maybe we can start our forever

———-

Every week I’ll be sharing a song here in my blog. A little warning though, you may find some of them to be mushy or cheesy, especially those OPM classics with really deep Tagalog words (I don’t even know the meaning of some of them). I don’t know but I’m just amazed by the lyrics of Tagalog songs. I really love our language… imagine how one word in english can have a thousand different meanings in our Tagalog or Filipino. I’ll also be posting english songs of course. I’ll also be uploading the songs on my box widget so you can listen to it and maybe sing along too.

This is the first song that I’m going to share with you. The very first time I heard this it was being sung by Monique Wilson, I think it was in the TV show Ryan Ryan Musikahan (I loved that show). I was still in high school then and there was no internet yet that time and it took me awhile to find out the title of the song and that the original version was by Kuh Ledesma and Richard Tann. I really like the melody and the lyrics of this one and hope you’ll like it too.

Of course she is! Mags (Short for Magdalena haha! Just kidding Mags!) is a very good friend of mine way back from college pa. She’s now a fashion photographer and a very good one. Anyway, the other night I was watching TV and was about to go to sleep when I happened to swith the channel to ANC… and there she was being interviewed by Pia Hontiveros about photography. And I was like “OMG! That’s Mags!” And she looked so pretty… very girly! Wala lang, I was just happy to see her and thought I’d share this with you guys. I haven’t seen her for awhile now and I miss her so much! Miss you mahal!

Yep… you read it right. I just opened my own CafePress store and if you want to open one too, just click on the second banner on the right for referral

I only have one design as of the moment and it’s available only on shirts. But if you want it on a certain product then just message me here so I can make it available for you. And please do tell your friends about my store, I’ll really appreciate it. I’m on a really tight financial situation these days and everything little thing counts.
