Tanang Buhay Ko

Ngayon lang nakwestiyon ang pagtingin ko sa kapwa ko dahil sa pinanggalingan ko'ng institusyon. Dati-rati, kahit may mga problema, di naman ako nalalait dahil sa pagiging sosyal ng pinaggalingan ko. Pinanggalingan ko lang yun. Kaya ako nandun dahil nagbakasakali akong baka mas maging maayos ang kinabukasan ko pagdating ng panahon. Only to realize, na talagang mahirap ang buhay kahit ano pang gawin mo. Kaya dapat, sampung beses ang pagsisikap.

Nakakalungkot pero di ko na kahit kelan mababago pa ang kanilang pagtingin sakin. Siguro, bahala na sila. Makakabawi din ako, hindi para sa kanila kung 'di para sa sarili ko.

Merry Christmas!

Shouldn't Have - A Song About Unrequited Love

Song inspired by my college crush and a former co-worker whom I thought I fell in love with. Both of them were false alarms. 

But I had to admit they made me disappointed then not because of the unrequited love. They made me disappointed because my experiences with them made me less a woman. In short, they made me feel ugly. So this song inspired me to write this sometime 2005. But for some reasons, I couldn't finish this song properly so I decided not to continue it. 

During the process, I learned to accept easily not to fall for guys who can’t seem to love me back. But some time 2008, I was inspired to redeem this song because of some experience that I could consider harassment. Good thing I have a quite good memory when it comes to lyrics and melodies that was why I was able to finish this song. It may not be radio-friendly though. But at least I’m proud of this. 

Trivia: The video would actually show how terrible traffic in EDSA is. Here, I’m also showing you a part of me as a Basilica Taal and Virgin of Caysasay devotee.

Happy 2013!
