“I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school. They don't teach you how to love somebody. They don't teach you how to be famous. They don't teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. They don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any longer. They don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind. They don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying. They don't teach you anything worth knowing.”
—Neil Gaiman
Keys
I played piano for the first time in 18 years. It took me a few minutes to remember how to read sheet music but I got it. First I stumbled through some Bach and then some Beethoven. I was a proficient player when I was younger. Yesterday wasn’t proficient but there were actual chords and stuff so hey. One of my saddest realities is the fact that while I love music, I have no talent for it.
Kevin takes drum and piano lessons. He practices faithfully and is excited for his lessons every week. He also plays guitar and bass. He runs sound for local bands, combining his love of music with his love of technology and gadgets. Right now, he is trying to learn how to DJ for my friend’s reception next month. He devours anything musically-related.
There is always musical stuff going on here. There are instruments and cables and picks and amps and stuff I have no idea what it is all over the place. His passion and desire to learn new things at 48 is wonderful to me. I want that for me. I have no earthly clue where to find it, but I want it.
I think this may be the next part of my journey. At some point, life needs to focus on the now instead of the what was.
If Only
i. If only we could control time, I’m sure by now we’re still sitting in this cinema. Your head will still be resting on my shoulder, and this heart of mine will still have those fast-paced beats.
ii. If only we could control time, I’m sure by now we’re walking down the street while talking about you; about us. The busy lights will see the fire crawling on my cheeks.
iii. If only we could control time, I’m sure by now we’re watching how the stars shine for us — how they glimmer for our love. The stars will witness how our love shines brighter than any luminous sphere in this galaxy.
ix. If only we could control time, I’m sure by now we’re making our own galaxy.
I belong to an English Speaking family.
And guess what? I’m proud of it.
Yung iba diyan mag-rereact at ang first impresyon sa akin ay “maarte at sosyal”. Pero hindi naman talaga. Pinalaki lang talaga kami ng mga magulang namin na english speakers. Naniniwala kasi sila na makakatulong ito sa paglaki namin dahil nga universal language ang English. Kaya ayun. Oo aaminin ko dati, hindi talaga ako bihasa sa Tagalog. May pagka-slang at conyo. Minsan nga hindi pa ako makakaintindi ng mga ibang Tagalog eh. Nakiki-oo na lang ako =))))) Pero ngayon? Aba matalas na ang dila at isip ko sa Tagalog :>
RF Wala akong talent.
Pero sabi nga nila lahat ng tao may talent. Minsan naiisip ko tuloy kung tao ba ko talaga? HAHAHAHA korne. Pero kapag naman sa school nagtatanong ng talent sinasabi ko ‘I can dance.’ English talaga XD Kasi kaya ko naman sumayaw pero hindi ako dancer. Nudaw. Hahaha. Kasi nga sa school diba may mga program, contests, ganun, laging may sayaw HEHE
Ang cool nung nilalaro ng kuya ko, ang ganda ng graphics tapos brutal hahahaha. Okay medyo nakakadiri lang po, diko na tuloy pinanuod pa. Haynako ang bagal talaga ng internet pero sakto lang sa Tumblr, sa facebook talaga hindi, ten years pa bago maging okay. Nakakaiyak lang po talaga, waht. Hahahaha joke buti na lang hindi pa ako pinapaalis ni Kuya Rhoan.— Hanggang ngayon ba naman uso parin sa ang fAc3 oPk *sInuOh mAs siCkaT, SinOuh mAs AnGat* Hayahay puro jejelers lang naman, okay napaka pakilamera ko talaga hahaha.
