After College, I Promise You.




     When we were kids, mothers always teach us what to do and what not to do, the difference between right and wrong, but they also have to mull all over that happiness doesn’t only dwell with where they think such can be found, that our happiness doesn’t end by their mere hypothesis, really. They will never know where for they were not able to fit in our shoes, mom’s 8 and I’m 7. What is happy for us might not be for them and vice versa. That well-mannered kid who used to do anything as she was told by her mom may eventually turn out to be surprisingly uncontrollable. Moms are naturally the ones who take the duty of putting their children under their guidance. The more we act not according to our supposed maturity, the higher the chance our parents’ armalite-like sermon is conjured.

     So, I think you’re all getting bored now as much as I do and it’s fairly predictable this doesn’t even interest you at all. And since you do not want me to take this any longer, I wouldn’t. But in all due respect, this blog necessitates me to get a hold a bit of your time, bear with me, puh-lease?

     Especially to daughters, parents are getting strict whenever suspicion to their kids about secretly entering into a relationship or worse, having a boyfriend, get in the way. Not that I’m purifying myself in saying that I’ve never done that, but that’s outspokenly beyond doubt.


Meeting People is Automatic

     Life is, indeed, full of surprises. We unpredictably meet people every day. Our friends already passed the test of being once strangers. I must ask, why brand them as such when it is safer to just say that strangers are only friends we haven’t met? Touché.




Why did they call it “FALLING” anyway?

    In viewing the full history of humankind, all of us experience to fall in love, to love, and be loved. To prove:  When Delilah falls for Samson after she betrayed him. When Jack hangs himself onto the wall panel leaving half of his body soaked in the freezing ocean, letting Rose to stay alive, there Jack follows his demise. When, upon knowing Juliet's death, Romeo drinks poison and died for her. When, by reason of friendship, Ron and Hermione progressively fall for each other. When Narcissus sees his own reflection in the waters and falls for himself, and countless others. The thing is, no matter how trying hard you are or become to turn over the idea in its farthest angle, the gist remains still. Well, in my case, I am not the kind of person who falls in love easily, hindi ako pa-hard to get or ready to get. It just comes naturally. Anyways, it is just too ironic because in reality, when you fall, it hurts. In love, when you fall, almost perfection. Unless you are under the influence of zero gravity, you wouldn’t be legally responsible to struggle for pain. However, happy are those who do not experience pain, but strong are those who dare fight pain right where it hurts, right where it hurts, right where it hurts. :)



Mothers Know Best, ALWAYS

     It is no surprise every time parents rebuke repeatedly, just as the statement goes: “Anak, wag ka munang mag boboyfriend, magtapos ka muna ng kolehiyo at magtrabaho. Dahil kung mahal ka talaga ng isang tao, kahit gaano pa katagal, hihintayin ka nya.” Today’s generation may get the idea wrong, or may be having a hard time to unravel the essence behind the statement all by themselves. I must also admit that I used to complicate what that really meant. But moms are the greatest interpreters because they have already set foot on such fairytale-gone-bad story, or more likely learned from others’ mistakes. Believe.

     She always reminds me, “After college”, every time she’s having an inkling about guys pursuing me. I promise her I’m going to fulfill the promise I made. I won’t ever fail my mom especially 2 years nalang tapos nako ng college.

     Mothers always know best. Good thing, unlike some other guys, moms do not have expiration dates.
