what happened?

I had millions of things going on, i just didn't have the time to blog it all, putting aside the crappy internet at work. But here i am, home in Iloilo. i must say, i've never been so glad to be home. :)

WORK
teacher timee is definitely enjoying every second with her kids. :) it's always a new day everyday, and i look forward to seeing my babies and the new things they bring in school. It may be tiring like hell, but how can it be hell when i'm with my angels? :) being a teacher doesn't pay much, but everything else that comes with this calling (yes, it's not a job. it's a vocation. hihi) is worth it. nothing beats the smile on my children's faces when they learn something new and come home to tell their mommies and daddies about it. or when i hear parents say they made the right decision sending their child to your school. or when your 3 y/o kid is able to add and subtract easily, and you didn't expect him/her to get it right the first time. if i indeed choose a different career in the future, i will always go back to teaching kids. :)

FRIENDS
2010 is a crazy year, and i can't believe it's coming to an end in a few months. a lot has happened, and i'm really happy with the way things turned out. :) i gained a new friend, someone i'm so sure i'll be friends with forever and ever. :) :) :) to you my shitty friend, i'm always here for you too. hahahahaha i've been drifting apart with my other friends as well, but it doesn't bother me. i think it's better this way.

this section is not LOVE, it's a malandi section.

and a one.

and a two.

and a three.

and a four.

aaaaaand. twist lick and dunk.
(oy, the last one is a bit complicated. i'll explain it to you once it matters to me again. hahahahahahaha. but now, i don't really care anymore. hahahahaha)


and LOVE.

because i'm really okay with anything. :)

aaaaand!!! back to the show! :)

as promised! haha i've been gone for quite some time now, having no internet in the condo hasn't been much of a help. reason why i don't want internet and cable tv in my condo? i don't want bills (i suck at paying on time, not because i don't have the money, i do, i just don't have the time) and i'm moving anyway, i want a better place. and besides i didn't have the time back then to watch tv or go online.

so voila, here I am, post-production and back to working full time. I must admit that having a prod now that i'm working was much harder back when i was a student. physically harder, but emotionally more fulfilling. :) back in college where my day didn't start at 7:30am everyday, i could afford to sleep 1 onwards, and still manage to cram papers and study for stuff. But this time, working from 7:30 and going straight to rehearsals, with no time to do work in between was a bit tiring. I'm relieved it's over now, I can rest. But i will truly miss Pilandok. :) I hope I get invited to tour with Entablado. I will so say yes. (giveaway much! haha)

Here's my Pilandok life in pictures.

The Diwatas

with Fr. Ben Nebres
Ateneo de Manila president.
another theater highlight.

2 shows in Meralco theater.
another major theater career highlight.

almost highlight of my theater career.
i would've actually died if the president and the vp came to see us.

working with amazing people.

i just love meralco theater.

i've always wanted to do this.

again, working with amazing people.

my costume was hard to work with,
i prayed everytime that it would cooperate with me.
but it was an amaaazing costume.
i love you Gara.

in Pilandok, i learned how to make landi like there's no tom.

to be strong. like that. hahaha

reunite with old friends.
enta seniors 2010.

feel like a super kaduper great diwata.

with all its grandeur and awesomeness.

a very unexpected reunion. :)

and me signing autographs.
i'm a star.

update
I made this post a few months ago when i thought i had all the time in the world after pilandok. well, turns out i had to catch up on work i left hanging when pilandok happened, so i didn't get to blog. but no worries, i'm buck. hahahaha. yes.

AAAAND BACK TO THE SHOW! :)

Dominique Estampador 1989-2010

Unknown assailant murders 20-year-old nursing student

www.thedailyguardian.com

THE stab-riddled body of a 20-year-old nursing student, believed to be a robbery victim, was found in a ditch in LaPaz, Iloilo City early Friday morning.

Dominique Ann Estampador, a resident of Villa Hermosa Subdivision in Brgy. Baldoza, LaPaz succumbed to 12 stab wounds in various parts of her body.

The lifeless Estampador, a 4th year student of the Iloilo Doctors Hospital, was found by residents and trisikad drivers 6am Friday on Villarama Road in Brgy. Lopez Jaena, LaPaz

Woke up, checked my facebook on my phone for new updates, and saw this picture on my wall. I opened it, to see why I was tagged. and the caption was: "Justice for Niq. rest in peace." I had to ask my Iloilo friends what happened. my friends replied "she was stabbed to death, 12 stab wounds. she was robbed too." My heart broke when I heard, and I wanted to cry. I didn't really know her that well, but once we were in the same group of friends, with sina Jet and Lucie. But I know she was a good friend and a strong girl. Whatever's going on with those people who brutally killed her must be all f*cked up right now. they should be. Si Lord nalang ang bahala sa inyo. I swear you are all so f*cked up.

Niq, you're in a better place now. Rest in peace friend. We are praying for your justice.

trust

i know i haven't blogged in ages, let me get back to you on that one. allow me this blog.

if this whole adventure was a movie, i'd say that was the twist. the climax. that was where everything changed. I was relieved, more than happy, and over. and i thought that was all I could feel.

I've realized too that I trust people quickly. I trust everyone I know. and I was so sure that these people were the ones I could totally rely on for everything. reality slapped me in the face. I have learned my lesson.

there are only a few people you can trust with everything. and i can count them with my fingers. these are the people whom you know will be there for you, not laugh at you when you start to cry and get serious, believe you completely without any doubt, and will listen to you without any judgments. Thank God for true friends.

and the people you used to rely on? aren't even part of the list anymore.
