up cmc: 100 for 100 grand bingo... sosyal!

ey boys and gels,

the up college of mass communication is holding a fund raising activity for the... ahem... infrastructure development fun and the faculty and staff development fund, entitled:

100 for 100 grand bingo social
(title pa lang ibang level na, 'di ba? so... unique)
it will be on november 24 / saturday
2 - 5pm
at the up cmc parking lot

p100 / ticket which is equivalent to not just one... not just two... but ten (10) games! a total of p100,000 worth of cash prizes and exciting raffle prizes will be given away to lucky winners. (take note: "exciting")

email me through my personal addy or my up account for your tickets. i can meet you anywhere in u.p. (diliman ha?!), philcoa, and abs-cbn (quezon city).go na para makatulong sa faculty at staff ng u1p cmc. at para makatulong na rin sa akin sa pagdidispatsa ng mga tickets na naka-assign sa akin :D

have you ever felt like you are in a particular place but you don't know exactly where it is?

And you know that 99.9% of the things around you have been there for as long as you can remember, yet you feel they're unfamiliar?

It's like you're seeing things for the first time. It's like you're a virgin in this place.

And that confuses you all the more because you know that what you're feeling is wrong. That it is against all logic that your environment is different when you have memories of yourself being in it the day before.

And it's worse than deja vu. At least with deja vu, you feel like you've been there and done that before.

The discomfort is the same, but the fear of the unknown is greater.

elehiya sa isang kandila

kandilang kumukuti-kutitap
umaandap-andap
sa makapal na karimlam
lumalaban, nakikipagtagisan
sa malakas na bagyong umiihip
bumubuga sa mumunti niyang apoy

hinihigop, sinisinghot
ang lahat ng hanging kayang hingahin

sinisimot ng timawang
mitsa ang kahuli-hulihang
patak ng lusaw na esperma

at bago pa muling sumikat ang araw
wala nang matitira

kundi tumagas na kaluluwa
at marka ng natuyong patak ng luha
kasama ng mga buhok
at kalansay na 'di na makikilala
sa loob ng nitso

mamayang hapon, isang kandila
ang muling sisindihan
sa harap ng aking lapida

i can't think of anything to say

but i feel i need to update this blog somehow.

(come on. i know you love looking at my pix. kidding.)


pulilan river - july 2007 - around 5am.
this is the river that divides the towns of pulilan and plaridel. i passed across it a few weeks ago on my way to quezon city for my 8:30am class. although it's really low-res, i like it. somehow it looks magical. whatever.

nlex - same morning.

hidef orientation - 25 july 2007. some people from the postprod department were giving us a walkthrough on hidef cams. yup, i was listening in between pic-takings.

ccp / baywalk - 22 july 2007 / screening of ned trespeces' trabaho. sunset at the manila bay is still as mesmerizing as ever. just hold your breath.

same afternoon. beautiful.
