The Relation Between Lying and Moving Along

Some of you might be asking as to what the title means, or if it does really mean anything at all. You see, there are happenings in one's life where connections are made from the most unsuspecting of sources. And last night was one such happening. Simply put, just allow me to dwell on that topic later on. :)

Starting off, yesterday was Kabataan Partylist Central Visayas Convention. You can read more about it on the most recent blog before this. To say that it was above average would be an understatement - there were loads of people, and majority of them came from the sector itself. There were grand performances from the different districts of the region, either song or dance numbers. I tell you, if you would have been there, you'd see that they could give You Got Served a run for their money. Seriously ;p. There was also a song number as well as games for the audience. After all the talks were given and performances were applauded, the rest of the time was given to bands. My favorite singer, Yach, performed a Paramore song and two Lady Gaga songs - watch out for them, they say that their next target will be UP Cookout '10.

I actually declined when someone asked me to be the technical director for the event, since I wasn't sure when I would be going home and I didn't want to jeopardize the technical aspects because I could not finish what I said I would be responsible for. But guess what? I still ended up being the technical director simply because the sight of that laptop drew me in so much I couldn't resist. If you opened my laptop flat, it would still be smaller than the keyboard area of that laptop. So yeah, you know what I mean.

Overall, it was a great event. I'm pretty sure the event's goals were reached, and everyone had a good time. Just thinking about, it was a pretty much fun event for me, yet I didn't quite bode well with how it ended. Due to privacy and respect matters, I shall keep the specific issues from being published here. But you could ask any of my close friends about a certain quote that said,"next time we meet, do me a favor and remind me not to trust you anymore," and you might just be given the direct answer.

I got home at around 12:30 AM, and before going to bed I took care of everything I had to take care of. After wishing a good night's sleep to the special people(family) and person of my life, I went to bed thinking of the early time I would be waking up the day after.

Come to think of it, the "event" that happened then wasn't really so bad at all - for all it's worth, I actually had great realizations that I feel would lead me to a better path. With all the b*llsh*t that went along with that happening, I realized that there isn't really anything good with being a gullible, stupid person, and that the best way to live life (as I should have learned a long time ago) is to think always about whats best for all persons concerned. This way, everyone wins. And if everyone wins, it makes up for a better overall outcome.

Before I end this post, allow me to give out special mentions to the following:

• Melanie Montaño - she left for Australia at around 1PM today, and she won't be back for two months. We'll miss you, kasama. Babalik ka pare, meron pa tayong SDT case. ;p

• Kristie Megan Cubero - I learned just yesterday that she'll be migrating over to another country. Which country though, I forgot. I wish you the best in all your journeys and undertakings Kim! I'll see you soon. :)

• Algeanne Paclijan - SHE'S COME BACK! I really missed this girl, most especially because she's one hell of a friend to have (and I mean that in the most positive sense of the phrase).

People! Stop leaving. I'm weird 'coz I hate goodbyes.

A Windy Day

And so this day comes.

For a good number of reasons, I have been quite looking forward for today to come. They're not the usual, I'm-getting-my-pay days, or even the monthly special day couples always look forward to (well, most couples). And yeah, even if they were I wouldn't be sitting in front of this gadget typing down this blog.

For everything that's happened in the past month, and perhaps including the past year, I value this day because it's the first Sunday of the summer season, and I'll be spending it attending the Kabataan Partylist Regional Assembly over at Day-as Gymnasium. It'll be a venue where members of Kabataan will be treated to bands and performances, as well as be informed about the current campaign of Kabataan. FYI, KP Secretary-General Vencer Crisostomo will be on hand, so this event won't lack starpower. I really hope people get to enjoy the event - as much as the effort put in to organize this event, it'll be a pleasant sight to see everyone having a good time.

Aside from that though, another reason for me looking forward to this day is because Algeanne Sun Paclijan will be coming back to Cebu! We last saw each other around December during the Christmas break, and today she'll be back home with us for a time. These people are the reason why I will always look forward to breaks and vacations - time spent with them will more than make up for all the stress accumulated throughout the school year.

Staying at home has never been this relaxing, and personally I can't remember a time similar to this I'm in right now. Perhaps going through one whole school year doing what I did does that to people. I mean, things are either behaving differently, or I'm looking at them in a better way than I used to. First up would be how I handle chores in the household. Back then, they were what they literally said - a chore. But now, oftentimes its me that looks for things to fix or rooms to clean. Secondly, I don't feel too much weighted anxiety whenever something insignificant happens, like a simple text or received e-mail. Right now, there's this sense of security I'm enjoying so much that I have so much confidence that things are and will be alright, and if they aren't then they eventually will. Foremost of these is the fact that there's this girl I feel I've really fallen for, yet due to certain circumstances I am unallowed to be anything more than what we are right now. I enjoy her company a lot, and being with her just eases a lot of the burdens I am carrying. This time it's different, because then I would have actually done something stupid that would result in a "gubot", but now I just feel like happiness doesn't have to go through all the drama that life offers. I've learned that things should be taken one step at a time, and that the best outcomes come from being able to see the obvious. You see, this time there isn't any string attached, and because of that there is no negative sense of insecurity present. Perhaps this is what I got after going through what I did - that as much as life demands things from us, we should also take some time to sit back and be able to look at life, saying "you deserve to be free".
