just an ordinary night at the lantay

from the upper part lantay (L-R): louie, kitty, starley, and vior.
lower part of lantay (L-R): rapi, carla, and kring²
on the street (L-R): me, jomar, and jb

this pic was taken a few months back. we were hanging out in our lovely pimp my lantay when them kids got mallows. so, we pulled out our pimp my grill and started to grill the mallows with you know, stuff like that. hehehe.

being a good girl

"help me jason. i'm falling in love with my boss."
i've known colleen for some time now. "tell me about it." i said solemnly.
"jase, he's gorgeous. he's a cute american and I get red all over whenever i'm in front of him."
i said, "pierce brosnan look-alike?"
she said, "kinda. what should i do?"

i smiled and said, "first of all, congratulations!"
"for what? i feel dirty. sinful. evil to the bone. i don't like feeling this way. i'm a married woman!"
"congratulations because you're human. do you think married women don't get attracted to men other than their husbands?"

so i asked her, "do you see your boss in public places?"
she raised her voice, "of course not! i don't even dare to ride in the same car with him!"
"good girl. now, do you fantasize about him?"
"no"
i then asked my final question to her, the million dollar one. "when you dress up for work, do you find yourself dressing for mr. pierce brosnan?"
she said, "honestly, i get tempted to do that but i won't."

"coll, can i congratulate your husband right now? he's one lucky military!"
and she said the usual thank you. i gave her few recommendations. i told her to enlarge her husband's pic on her office desk. about five meters by nine meters. i also told her to show her boss that she's a happily married woman.

colleen went up for her class and we parted ways. i think she walked away happy that day. and so did i. i'm happy cuz she's going srtaight and all. that's cool.

jamestown choys

chucky, me, and rapi

enjoy who you are

let me tell you one of the greatest mysteries of the world----when a woman puts on blush-on, mascara, eyebrow pencil, eyeliner, eye-shadow, eyelashes, lipstick, lipgloss, toner, powder---- and then turns to her boyfriend/husband and asks, "honey, do i look natural?"

now tell me, how does a boyfriend or a husband answer that without being hit on the head by inanimate flying objects?

hey, i'm not against make-up.

i think it boils down to inner attitude: by putting on make-up, are you covering stuff that you're ashamed off? or expressing the beauty that you believe is you?

now before i give you advice on eyeliner techniques and what various hues of blush-on you can use for your skin color, let me tell you about my aunt's wedding last year.

i remember sitting beside my cousin while the groom was eagerly waiting for his bride. when the bride (my aunt) appeared and started walking down the aisle, i noticed that my cousin suddenly entered into a catatonic state. his eyes had this blank stare, his mouth ajar, his body motionless, until i snapped my fingers in front of his face.

shaking off the shock, he mumbled, "is she our aunt?"
i bit my lip. "i don't know. she has so much paint, uh, i mean, make-up."

you may be wondering who among my aunts i'm referring to since i have lots of 'em. for the sake of my safety, that information will be kept in a secret vault that can only be opened after my death.

i remember helena. everytime i see her on cam, i fell in love with her even more. because her beauty isn't distorted with make-up. i know she is not a make-up fan. if she will put some, it'll be so mild that the make-up will be like an exquisite picture frame that will not distract from its gorgeous painting.

so what if you're too thin, too fat, too stout, too tall, too short, too round, too rectangular, too hexagonical?

maybe helena is teased by some people about how geeky her glasses are. when i bought my computer, i bumped into a girl. i saw her, immediately, i noticed her lovely eyes and steady glasses. i was smitten.

please teach them kids the lay-up

daut has been promoting this blog to my friends. fucking tard!!! hehehe just kidding. he just miss me, that's all. hahahaha! you butt monkey you. anyways, it's been a while since my good buddy slash fan has been away from jamestown. well, he gotta make a living and feed his family you know. i think he will be back for more action this december. i hope so too 'cause rapi, vior and i are sick of our pointguards!!! man, our pointguards only passes the ball every tuesdays! and when they will do the good 'ol fastbreak thingy, they couldn't finish it gracefully. everytime we see them run like their pants are on fire, we cross our fingers, close our eyes and pray that their lay-up will be as good as that of a midget. i know you're reading this you sicko, so get your ass back here in jamestown and let's play the game, jamestown boys style! we need serious basketball clinic for the next generation.

i thought lena's the only one who's been reading this little hole of mine. i thought daut had quit reading my ramblings and all. but anyways, they say it's a waste of time but i love to write things, i felt like an Inquirer journalist for the lifestyle section. i must warn you though that my posts require invincible perspicacity and sophistication. hehe, not really. vior and i are working on with the jamestown website. to those who are reading this, please don't spill the beans yet, ok? we are planning to sruprise everyone that jamestown have a badass webpage. vior will be the one to construct the webpage, the color combination and the contents will be taken care of us both. vior said i will have the privilege to write the events and the latest happenings of the jamestown community. from the squabble of our eccentric neighbors to the overwrought households who have loads of credit with regards to their water consumption. but hold your horses folks, the webpage is still on it's 20% of development. just check your friendster accounts because we will announce it when it's already good for viewing.

tere will be back any minute from now. oh, she's on! YES! later!

good clean fun

i just got inside the house. vior, rapi, oca, chucky and i were talking shit and shizzos. we talked about what we will do in Bantayan this coming Holy Week. i told vior that we should bring a video cam. and he said he would, chucky too will try to convince his mom that we are not up to no good. the plan is that we will be performing stunts when we get there. we've been laughing the whole time, that is what happens when vior and i starts the funny engine. i have been going to Bantayan for like, 3 years already. every holy week, i get to go on an island with my friends, drink, eat, and do funny shit. we are happy campers you know. yeah, we've been going to the same beach ever since the tradition started but the experience and the fun is always unique. we will document the trip from the assembly until the end. the title of the trip is Mangyan Marines: The Call Of The Lawin '05. yeah, we are the mangyan marines and anyone who wants to join, he/she should go with us on this trip. we only get to recruit once a year and that will be the trip to Bantayan. we had undergone furious, exhausting trainings before. i am so excited with this trip because we will bring a video cam to seal the memories that we will have on this trip.

when we grow old, it will be fun to watch our Bantayan trip and say, "my salad days was served really really good." while i am in my youth, i grab every chance to be happy. i dont want to live in a normal life. it seems that life starts when you go to school, then after graduating, you go get a job, start a family, retire and wait to die. that seems to be the cycle in life. while we are in the cycle, try to spice things a lil bit. do what other people think it's not normal. do something different, don't let your youth dry out like the water during the great famine in Egypt.

whatever your cup of tea is, always make the right decision. life is never fun when you always commit the same stupid things. always have good, clean fun. don't let things go out of your head and stay as focus as a ninja.

never test the water with both feet.

Along Came Helena

after playing basketball, i then went straight home. since jb did not txt if the acoustic gig will push through, i did not get to go down town. that's ok, i'm not that excited about it anyway. so i had a hot cocoa, sat on our lantay, staring at the stars and thinking about my helena. i was alone, enjoying my hot cocoa and enjoying lena's images flash right in my eyes. it was heaven i could say. after finishing my hot cocoa, i then went back inside the house and watched tv. while channel surfing, i bumped into ABC 21. it was a kung fu film titled The Sword Stained By Royal Blood. it is an early 90's kung fu film. i can tell it from the fight scenes and from the wardrobe and all. it kinda sucked cuz it was in chinese. there's a subtitle yeah, but the you can hardly read it because it's white and it blends with the costumes of the actors. then kring² came and asked if i was watching the movie because she wants to watch a VCD. i said it's ok and so she put on 50 First Dates. it's a good movie, saw it before. Drew Barrymore's character is really nice but still, Jennifer Aniston's character in the movie Along Came Polly is still #1 for me.

i'm listening to Dashboard Confessional right now, one of my favorite bands. no, they're not a punk band. hehe. i listen to emo too you know.

ok, here's my rambling. i sent a birthday/valentines card for helena through LBC. they told me it will be delivered in 7 days. but no, lena have not recieved it yet. i want to choke LBC's president or whatever they call their big boss. i'm going FedEx next time. as of now, imma go run amok!

a special soul

the whole day, i kept on thinking about tere. she's as special as a mouth watering halo² in Ice Castle. sometimes, i could not help but miss her and i get emotional. hehehe. missing her is like im in a rollercoaster ride. i like missing her so much cuz i get the urge to graduate as soon as possible, i get to write songs, and it boost up the urge within me to go to the states. she's everything that i got, helena is my heart.

i will start jogging from now on. exercise and diet go together like fries and ketchup. tomorrow is a friday so, i will wake up at 9 in the morning, jog around the plaza for an hour or until my knees apologizes for being painful in my basketball games. i don't want tere to have second thoughts of me because of my weight. i really hope not. hehehe. my smoking days is almost over too!!!

no, i am not trying to impress helena with that. i want to give her credit for everything good that has happened to me cuz she plays a big impact on me. yes, my head is as hard as a a concrete. but i really don't know how she is able to make me do BETTER things. like before, she told me she wants me to quit smoking because of my health. never ever did somebody asked me that that way.

i'm happy she came into my life. i can't ask for anybody. just her, her, and more her.

i want to fly in my own sky, sit on a cloud, look at her doing her to-do list. she's special to me. very very special.

acoustic saturday

im as tired as a running cheetah in the wild. yeah, school's been busy lately, with all the quizes and stuff. i am only worried with one subject, and that's NatSci 2. why do we have to study elements? why do we have to know how fast a cookie thrown from the hill will fall? we are not studying to be scientists, we are studying on how to manage people. yeah, it's a cultural subject, i know, but does it have the right to be a pain in the ass? do we really have to study science that hard to become good managers? i'd prolly study accounting and business subjects than focus so much on a stupid minor subject.

so after school, i went straight home, took a shower (2nd time for this day...ha!). after shower, i saw my mom talking on the phone, she was talking to joi's mom. yeah, they're tight as hell. anyhow, i went out for the lantay, chuck came, rapi too. we talked about stuff then jb arrived. jb asked me if i could play this saturday with him and along with lumo. it will be an acoustic gig. we don't have to practice cuz we had been jamming together since high school. we don't have an official band, but when it comes to fiestas and invitations, we get to play on the spot, no practice needed. that's how good we are, that's how close we are. the venue for the gig is at Mango Square (former ding qua qua). it is a bar for all ages. so there will be an audience. poor them.

i have not played acoustic stuffs so i think it'll be good. when we get together and drown ourselves with alcohol, we jam, so we have our own playlist. songs from bands like weezer, radiohead, yano, our lady peace, dashboard confessional, and lots more. what bothers me is my voice. it is acoustic so the vocalist must be at least average or above average. as far as i know, my voice isn't that good. it is good for rock stuff but this time, yeah, we're gonna play rock songs, but it is mellowed down cuz it's acoustic.

tere is online already. so imma go end this now and cuddle up to her. hehehe.

firing squad

ok, so i was at my cousin's birthday. the place was so packed up it looked like a colony of busy ants. the food was great, i only had salad and a piece of lechon. my uncles were like, what the hell are you doing? hehehe. i was at the drunkards' table so it was noisy and all. we talked about almost everyting, from the chastening of christians to the glorious courts of the NBA.

kring² was with us, it was nice to see her. as you have known, she does not live here in our humble house anymore. well, not for a month. she'll be back next week. the four of us sat down and talked. i told them i want to go to the states as a young man and not as an old fart. i don't want to talk about it cuz it's just a plan. if this will push through, then, i will get to see tere in her world. i'll love it there, that's for sure. i want to go where she always go. i want to eat what she always eat. i want to go to OSH too!

my bei's birthday is fast approaching. i wish i could spend that special day with her. but as useless, i'm miles away. good thing there are bridges made out of phonecards. that'll keep us breathing for now. someday, we'll breathe the same air, we'll see the same things, we'll experince lots of things together. i can't wait.

she is my happiness.

i want to ask bei out on valentine's day. ask her out for chat on yahoo messenger that is. =)

i wish i could call her on that day. but knowing me, i will definitely call her. hehehe.

love and destruction

at last! i get to talk to tere again! haven't talked to her for ages already. im so happy. but i couldn't see her on her webcam, that sucked donkey balls. but she's on, we're in a conference room so it's all good. yeah, that's us, the muffins. :)

how i missed tere. im happy she's got a new connection and it's a cable modem! damn! that's the shiznit! mine is a lousy dial-up. but as long as i can talk to tere, i can settle with it. i can't trade her for DSL or cable modems. i treasure her like how a pirate does. i hold her heart calmly in my hands.

it's my cousin's birthday today. i want to take tere with me tonight. i want her to meet my family and relatives, i want her to be part of the family. that day will come. right now, i am trying to figure out how to maintain my diet when i get there tonight.

i'm listening to The Used right now. some kind of emo band from california. they have nice lyrics but kinda rough. but that's ok cuz the melody is candy to the ears. ok, i need to talk to joi.

pimpin' the lantay

this picture was taken by our good neighbor carla. she saw me one afternoon in my pimp my lantay. as you can see, i am busy with papers. yeap, i was copying one of my classmate's answers for my Accounting 1 subject last sem. hehehe. the she just yelled at me and i was like, "ayaw carla!" then there's the flash. as you can see, there's an extension below. how pimp is that? hehehe. behind me are the banners of the Jamestown Basketball Team and my humble house. it's small, i know, i can live with that. :)

i love her so much, i'd shake heaven and earth for her

i miss helena so much. i miss her. i wanted to call her, but as usual, she said no.

i want to be with her
i want to talk to her 24/7
i want to take her out for dinner some time
i want to cuddle up to her
i want to hold her
i want to see her sleep
i want to do things with her
i want to see her everyday
i want to hold her hand
i want to see her laugh always
i want to see her smile
i want to go shopping with her
i want to carry the grocery for her
i want to see her in school
i want to see her work
i want to wipe her dizzy eyes
i want to see myself with her
i want to spend my whole life with her

never felt this way
never made concrete plans involving a girl
never in my life i've strived to be a good man to meet a girl's parents
never did i know i'll meet this special someone in a conference room
never did i know that i will fell head over heels for her
never did i make plans to go to states
never will i let her go... never.

I LOVE HELENA SO MUCH. things are always better with her around... online or not.

a new hole

blogger.com got stupid. i was publishing something on my blog but it didn't went through! now, i have to write it all over again. but shit, i won't do it. anyways, so i went to school today, it was good. during my break, i usually go to this place. an isolated one without students hanging out. only I, jason karl buhia gets to sit there all alone. yeah, i have friends in school, lots of 'em. but i dont hang out with them. if partlex is around, he'll join me there, talking about shizzos and gizmos. then this afternoon, there's this building, a new one which is i've been longing to go 'cause my place is not that isolated and stuff. the frat members of AKP usually hang out a few meters away and they're loud and all. so i went up there and at the 3rd floor, i saw a couple of high school students writing stuff and inside the new auditorium, some high school kids are practicing on something. i think it's a play. there's a lil bit of noise but at least they don't yell at each other. and since the hall of the new building is open, i sat down the floor, with my bag beside me, and my cellphone in my hand. i love it there, it was not that noisy, and it was not that isolated at all. there's a drinking fountain a few steps back and there's a comfort room nearby. i exchanged messages with my text warrior girlfriend named helena. i wanted to call her but i guess she fell asleep or something. she had a rashes breakout. poor baby. but anyways, i grabbed my pen and a piece of paper, i started to write a song. yeah, i made a song in my 1 hour break. how's that for a break? hehehe. so, i found this new hole of mine.

then i went back to the main building for my next class. then after 2 straight classes, it was break time again for me. i went back to my new hole, there were still high school kids around. i sat at the floor again, looking at the city's billboards and enjoying the wind caressing my cheeks. then 3 high schoolers went up to me and asked, "naa kay banda nuh? murag kita man gud mi nimu nitukar." i replied, "nitukar? nitukar ang patol?" and they laughed and asked again the same quesetion, they said i am in a band called Lasagna Surfers. so i said yes and they were like, "naa kay cd sa inyung kanta? tagpila?" i told them that we have not released it in the market and all. then this other girl said, "jason man imung name di ba? ikaw man tong gitudlo sa akong ate gahapon gud." i told them kids that my name is not jason and that my name is errol. hahahaha!

tere doesn't want me to call her but i will still call her cuz she's sick. and i want to tell her that i got my midterm grades today. i passed all my subjects!!! so, i'm gonna call and thank her for the inspiration. she plays a big part in my studies and mostly in my life. i have built my world around her because i want to spend my whole life with her, seriously speaking. i love her. i love her so much. :,)

to my helena, thank you for the amazing things that you've done to me. thank you for your confidence, patience, understanding, faith, loyalty, and most of all, for the love you've given me. i love you i love you i love you!

text soldier

ok, so i am listening to destiny's child. yeap, execute me my noble punks. anyways, it's their new song called Soldier. tere's been listening to it, joi too. i was like, that song isn't really that good. but then, they kept on talking about it, then i saw the video, and i was like, it's kinda good. so i download the shiznit yesterday. now, i've been playing it so many times like listening to some mozart classic.

my txtmate is getting her fingers working again. hehehe. she's got no internet connection, stupid server of hers. anyways, she's missing out a lot on my blog. hahahahahhahaahah! my day is ok. bei sent a message during my vacant hour, it always bring a smile on my face everytime she txt me. she does not want me to be alone sitting in one corner in school, so she txted me, it's the least that she could do for now, but it meant a lot to me. at that time, i felt like she was sitting beside me. staring at me like i have something on my nose.

i just want to say... my girlfriend is a text warrior!!! woooooo! fast fingers! very fast ones! and she's txting lying down! how can you beat that?! hehe. love you bei... :)

my sassy girl
