Photography 101 sa bundok...
pictures below were some of the photos i took using my first attempt to use a manual single-lens- reflex camera....a friend gave me some photography lesons and allowed me to play with his camera giving me the 36-shot film to shoot whatever...
these photos are digital-free..hehehehe untouched by adobe photoshop...the only digital thing about them was when i scanned it for upload...
and my favorites were the picture of a liitle girl(one of the locals that i met along the trail) and the photo of the leaves showing the streaks of the sun
should i buy a second hand manual SLR or save up for a digital SLR worth more than half a hundred thousand pesos...whoa!!!!!
the trek was fun, but there's this empty and hollowed feeling, probably because this was the first time i conquered a mountain without his company...
i miss him...

it's always fun remembering old times, the fun and the not so fun events in our lives, but together with the memoirs of the past lies the pain and countless lesions. wounds that left scars. scars that takes time to heal. scars that left permanent marks. but the worst is thinking that the scars have completely healed, yet beneath the impostor lies the repulsive sight of a fresh and immaculate wound.
it takes time...

the rainy days would make you want to extend your hours in bed, wrapped in your comfortable blanket, but then the dedication to earning money would make you jump ot of the bed, like a cat on a hot tin roof, and the love for the job grows from disgust to a mere lethargic practice and later on to a high-tolerance of the everyday routine. it grows in you. it eats you up. but it would make you a better person someday.
some people needs a lifetime to know what they want, yet a few would always wake up in the morning determined to seek their purpose.

wala na kong kasamang umakyat ng bundok..
wala nang mag-aaya sa kin ng alas-tres ng madaling araw para mag-whistlestop
wala na ang road trip all the way north
wala na ang burger machine escapades after every road trip
wala na ang mga spur-of-the-moment road trips sa quezon, laguna at tagaytay
wala nang kakatok sa bahay ng ala-una ng madaling araw
wala nang motorcycle diaries
wala na ang nagpakilala sakin ng 70's grunge at 80's rock at ultimate blues
wala nang moon watching at star gazing on top of an unfinished building
wala na din ang kauna-unahan kong 256 flsh drive
wala na kong kasama mag-pansol
wala na kong kakalbuhin
wala na kong beer buddy
wala nang mag-kikidnap sa kin during office hours
wala na kong kasama mag-food-trip at kung anu-ano pang jologs trip
wala na kong kasama bisitahin ang iba't-ibang branch ng 7-eleven para sa brain freeze ng Slurpee
wala na ang planong "backpacking" trip sa south luzon
wala na sya..
i lost him because i am a coward.....

i miss my friends (carol, karol, charity, mates, meldi, epper, deejane)....
i was trying to do my usual monday routine, and i just felt sooo lonely and i want to cry, probably because i need a shoulder to cry on, i need a listening ear, i need someone to assure me that tomorrow's gonna be a better day, i need someone to substantiate that i deserve a better man than him, i need the assurance that i can finish my project, and that i am not a bad programmer.
i need my friends... i need my support group...

after three days in the bacman plant in bicol, and another 3 days of vacation because of the long weekend, my office desk and office PC are unknown entities in my life.
now, the day's almost over with 2 hours before 5,accomplishing nothing and trying to look busy...for now, deadlines seem to be so faaar away and i don't care...
i am bored.
the only consolation for this day was the "sulit" lunch with friends satisfying my two-month-craving for chef d'angelo's paella pasta and spicy chicken wings with waffles for dessert.

I want to see the World
Spend my millions staring into seas,
conquering mountains,
and walking on dirty and posh lands.
I want to conquer people.
Stare into their foreign eyes.
Be lost in the sea of faces.
Find my way,
then be lost again.
