" ME and "TAHONG CHIPS"

It was a very lousy afternoon... nasa school ako nun with my friends, we had nowhere to go, just to kill the time, nagpasya kami na pumunta nalang sa DIVISORIA. Ewan ko ba kung bakit naisip nila Taline na pumunta doon. Anyway its just a jeepney ride from UE Recto and at that time i was asking them on where can i buy a turtle... for a moment, I wanted to have a turtle for a pet.. funny me nyahahh.. (maybe because of the korean movie "...Ing") ....
I remember one time Joana told me that theres a petshop at 168 Mall Divisoria where I can possibly buy one(turtle). So pumunta na kami. Marianne and Joana went home early... Lennon didn't came to school that day, so only four of us experienced the "Divi spirit", Me, Justine, and the two lovebirds Taline and Luap. It was my first time in "DIVI" and I was surprised of the volume of the people walking on the streets, nakakagulat din ang mga prices ng mga goods sa paligid... mas mura pa sa mura =P. We went inside the TuTuban Center, nothing special for me, inside, you can see a series of stalls selling bags and clothings... pero kila Justine and Taline kitang-kita ang ningning sa kanilang mga mata! naisip ko tuloy.. "mukhang sila lang nag-eenjoy ah?" haha... ang mga babae talaga basta damit and bags, iba ang mood...=} We tried to contact Lennon, gusto sana namin siya pasunurin sa "Divi" kasi malapit yata house nila dun kaso busy yung phone nila lagi.
Anyways, lumabas na kami and we decided to go to 168 Mall kasi nga sabi ni Joana meron petshop doon... while walking, napansin ko na its impossible to find a petshop there kasi puro clothes (ukay-ukay stuffs ba) and food lang ang makikita mo sa tabi-tabi. We were inside the 168 Mall, first time ko rin dun, mukha naman siyang mall talaga compared to the Tutuban, airconditioned siya kaya nga lang marami din tao. Wala parin humpay ang ningning sa mga mata ng maga kasama naming babae, kada stall gusto pasukin hindi naman bibili (joke) nyahahah... Sa pagod siguro nagutom sila, kaya naghanap kami ng makakainan... We ended up sa may FoodCourt... at aba sosyal ang "fudkort" nila, may mga flat screen! haha... hala order yung dalawang lovebirds sa "Jollibee" , si Justine naman hindi yata gutom nun kaya di siya kumain, well parehas kami di naman ako gutom pero uhaw naman ako, kaya bumili nalang ako ng C2.
Sa pagbili ko ng C2, napansin ko ang isang mahiwagang chichiria na may label na "TAHONG CHIPS" d' Original.... Curious naman ako kung ano lasa ng chips na iyon... lasa kayang potato chips? or banana chips? paborito ko kaya banana chips! baka kasi matalo niya ang lasa ng banana chips ko... So binili ko siya, nagulat ako (teka kanina pa ako nagugulat ah) kasi sa liit ng packaging ang mahal pala niya! Iniisip ko nalang na sa price ng 30 pesos matitikman ko na siya. I went back sa table namin... kumakain na sila Luap ng "Jollibee"... paglapit ko sa kanila I told them na "Look what I found"... "anu yan?" Taline asked... ang sagot ko naman.."TAHONG CHIPS" binili ko dun"... everyone looked at each other and smiled then tumawa ng mahina... until now hindi ko parin ma-gets kung bakit natatawa sila pag nababanggit ang "TAHONG CHIPS" ... nakakatawa ba talaga? I dont know kung bastos ba or whatever... One thing is for sure, everytime na naalala ko yun, napapangiti ako... ewan ko lang ha, subukan niyo sabihin ang "TAHONG CHIPS" matatawa kayo ng walang dahilan... nyahahah... =P PeaceOut

The Rebirth

Yes this is my new Blog account, yung dati kasi na delete ko, Hindi ko alam naisipan kong i-delete yung account na yun, maybe because ayoko nung mga huling posts medyo bitter kasi ung mga contents nyahahahaha... anyway, because this is new, let me start my entry with something about new life... "Rebirth" it is... di ba astig'? aheheheh... Im going to share a story. I cant say na life changing experience for me but definitely it affected my days after the incident, i mean after the "ACCIDENT" nyahahaha...=P

A few knows this story, siguro ako, people involved and some tropapips. Kahit nga mga kapatid and my parents dont know about this... ewan ko ba, hindi ko pala nasabi sa kanila, ngayon ko lang naalala while writing it... kulude yan... So the story happened on the night of my JS Prom, I was a 3rd year student then. The prom night was really amazing and eventually very tiring. Me and my classmates had a great evening and no one of us had the idea that after the fun and laughter, comes a very unexpected situation.

I forgot to add pala na sa province pala yung setting ng story ko hehe... and now to continue the story... Its time to go home, it was past midnight na nung natapos ang event . I found out na wala pala ako sundo, kasi kung alam nyo lang na sa place namin pagdating ng 9pm wala nang available transpo sa town... you dont have any choice but to walk your way home or matulog ka nalang sa "Centro" (the center or town proper). So I and my friend decided na makisabay nalang sa classmate namin whose father is a tricycle driver na luckily nandoon para sunduin siya. Isang kakaragkarag na "tricy" (as what we call it sa amin) na may hindi aligned na gulong at may rosary na nakasabit sa harap nito.

The father of my classmate has a reputation sa town namin na "lasinggero", and with just a look masasabi mo na drunkard nga talaga kahit di pa under the influence of alcohol.. ahahaha... =P Unang pumasok ng tricy yung dalawa kong classsmates leaving me a seat sa backride beside of course the driver which is my classmate's dad. I was sitting sa backride while the driver was trying to start the engine, I heard him whispered " ayaw magstart, ukina na"... sorry for the word pero yun talaga narinig ko ahahahah.... anyways, a strange thing happened to me... bigla nalang ako tumayo sa kinauupuan ko at pumasok sa loob ng tricy where my classmates are, they asked me kung bakit ako lumipat... sumagot ako ng "wala lang" sabay tawa, tapos may unusual silence,weird... Ang sumunod na eksena ay mahaba-habang kwentuhan tungkol sa Prom, habang binabaybay namin ang daan pauwi sakay ng tricy, tandang-tanda ko pa ang parusa sa pagkaka-upo ko doon sa maliit na upuan... alam nyo ba yun?? yung extension kapag taken na yung two seats sa loob ng tricycle?? dun ako nakaupo, eh sobrang lubak, kaya pain to the butt talaga ahahahe...

As we were approaching our destination, I noticed that iba na yung dating ng andar ng tricy... tagilid... tagilid... tagilid tapos isang malakas na brraaagggggrrrshhhh!!!!... everyone was shocked for a few seconds!!!

lumabas ako agad ng tricy na nakatagilid sa bangin... actually mini bangin lang naman, describing it, isa siyang mababaw na slope mga 3 and a half feet high na puro bato in front of an elementary school, mababaw nga pero fatal parin kung susuriin... Maswerte kami dahil eksakto may padating owner-type jeepney na alam ko ay owned by my Class Adviser ... then ayun nga yung teacher namin helped us para maitayo ung tricy kasi yung father ng classmate ko ay naipit pala... The morning of the same day, we found out sa hospital na medyo nakainom pala yung father ng classmate namin that dawn... He suffered a broken leg and some bruises, he is alive. Kami naman ng friends ko himala na wala kami natamo kahit anu mang galos... galing di ba?? nyahahaha...

After going to the hospital I dropped by the accident scene ung nasaan nandoon pa yung tricycle, gulat na gulat ako sa nakita ko! sobrang wasak at grabe ung damages na nangyari sa backride part ng tricy... hindi ko siya napansin nung madaling araw kasi nga madilim pero nung may available light na, sobrang nagulat ako.. I cant believe it!I was sitting right there just minutes before the crash... kung hindi pala ako nagtransfer sa loob ng trike, I am good as dead now... no one can survive that seat its a miracle indeed... naalala ko tuloy yung FINAL DESTINATION FILMS nyahahahaha... "Death Skipped Me" ... That was when I realized that God really loves me... He is really good to me... And I thanked Him for that gift, the gift of "New Life" . So whenever I failed on something or Im having a misfortune, I always think of the experience and simply smile... at dahil diyan... AYUS APIR!!!!!
