Yesterday, i arrived at my friend’s place to start the presentation slides we’re about to use for today’s report. I’m not a fan of movies, nor tv shows. Duh! Hate all the showbiz stuff! But I changed my perspective later that day. They’re watching the movie Windstruck. And I just went on with my business. Until finally, i heard the police character screaming the name Myungwoo. Quite intrigued by such display of drama, i stopped my work and stared at the faces of the people inside the room. They seemed so oblivious with my stares until finally someone started telling me the plot of the story. Hmmmm! I thought the movie’s worth watching.
And so, I paused my busy world, started to stare at the tv and tried to be tough enough not to cry because of this tearjerking movie.. The story was all about the love between the ladycop Kyungjin and a man named Myungwoo. Kyungjin thought she was the one who accidentally shot dead her love. With desperation and sorrow, she attempted to kill herself many times. She tried to jump off from a building only to be saved by a balloon. She wasn’t even scared of being shot or killed in her operations but there’s something in the wind that protected her. Towards the end of the story, Myungwoo came back on the 49th day since his death to finally say his goodbyes to Kyungjin and to tell her "Someday, you’ll meet someone with a soul like mine"… And Kyungjin said "Come back even as the wind"
This is a story that tells us that love can exist between two people from separate worlds, from two separate realms. Love can co-exist with two people whose hearts belong to one. Love can make things possible, despite the gap, despite circumstances.. We just have to love, not ask.
I only have half an hour to finish this. And I really have a lot to say… Tomorrow will be the inevitable Valentine’s Day. I stil don’t have any date yet! Duh! Who cares? hahaha… Yesterday was the culmination of the ITE Festival in our department. For the past few days, I’ve been busy preparing for it, not to mention the other activities I have for this month (HELL MONTH!!!!! DARN!!!) Kudos to those who made the event possible. The ITE Program Officers, under the tutelage of Ms. April Rose Kwong, did a good job. Everyone was in their energy’s height to make it all worth it. Even I, myself, was quite nervous about it. Again, my kudos to all of you ..
Enough of all those serious business. I just had a funny incident yesterday. I was already on my way out of the Cubepixels Studio at noon when the strings on my sandal snapped off. Gahd! I have to endure walking to GS Ilustre just to buy a cheap pair of shoes which cost P70. Hahaha,,, Everytime i remember that incident, I wonder what I looked like while struggling to walk with a broken sandal along Ilustre. Hahahaha.. Ma’am Nelia can’t help but to laugh aT me when I told her of what happened.
Hmm! I want to take note that yesterday, I received my first Valentine and birthday gift this year from a dear friend. We were quite surprised to know that we have a common favorite song. It’s my fave way back highschool, and he himself told me that it’s the piece he’s most proud of. Finding ourselves both ecstatic about it, he promised to play it for me personally. And so, during that day, I was so excited to hear him play until finally we’ve got the chance to have the piano all to ourselves. I was also very happy to know that the event was something special to the both of us because it’s like a dream come true. First, after many years of longing, I finally was able to hear someone play the piece on the piano, for me to hear it personally. Second, he was also dreaming to feel the pride that comes with playing a grand piano, the wish he has as a young musician. It’s the first Valentine gift we had to ourselves. Thanks a million!!! My Valentine is not that freaky after all.
I just finished my feature for the valentine’s day for the paper. And I just hate the very thought that I’m writing someone else’s love story, not mine. Gahd! Valentine craze! hmm!!! I’m thanking myself because I’ll be busy these following days. I have to work for the school elections and I have some important matters to attend to. And guess what, this fifteenth will be my birthday, but still, I’ll be so damn busy. At least, I will have lesser time to think about my sad valentine. I think I’ll be spending the lovers’ holiday doing work. Of course, I’ll also spending more time with my barkada. Well, they are the only budz I got for that day. i hate hearing love songs; they’ll only remind me of something i don’t want to remember for that day. I’ll just be crying my heart out again. ‘cause i’ll remember someone who’ll never even have a thought of me. Someone who only exist in my dreams as the person i want him to be. This will be the second valentine he’ll be away from me. The second valentine I have to spend looking at him from a distance, wishing in silence that I’ll be the person he’ll first turn to and wish me a happy valentine as he did two years ago. Today is also the second birthday of the ring he gave me for my 18th birthday. I’m still wearing it today because it’s the reminder that at some time of my life, I called him MINE! It is the portal to my fantasy land where i imagine that both our hearts are engaged to one another. February 14 will be my second freaking sad valentine. Wish me luck.
