I know I got a lot of things to do. But surprises stun me to my seat everyday. Different situations arise daily and every time, it just blow my senses away. When I thought I had it all figured out, something would happen. And it would lead me to take another course of action. I'm not sure if it was the best or if it was right, I do it anyway. But while doing it, I get confused along the way. Somewhere I would be lost and I would retrace my steps. And in that somewhere.. Somewhere while I'm figuring where have I gone astray,
I get lost some more!
You get me? I don't get me. Really. Should I bother understand my thoughts? Should you? What one must do if he/she is just that?
Dazed and Confused.

Dae Han Min Guk vs Pinas [Chapter 1]
Quezon City, Manila, Philippines
February 2004
In my room, I busied myself folding clothes while listening to Christian Bautista’s latest album. I really don’t wanna hear my parents argue with our relatives on the wisdom of Mom and Dad’s decision. I don’t want to live in any other country. I’m a Filipina. I should live in the Philippines. Despite of our midget lady President, I believe Philippines is good. I choose to believe that Philippines is good. Well except for the fact that our school needs more rooms. I feel like dying of suffocation in class with my fifty classmates. Additional teachers would be great too. And less traffic! Oh god. Traffic is just a bad way of jumpstarting one’s day. Ohhh how i wish our country could have better leaders too, better political system.. health programs.. housing assistance.. less tax.. swift administration of justice. Ughh. Whatever! I love Philippines.
“Ate!”
I raised my head up and saw Lenna standing beside the door. She is wearing a short shorts and a tangerine spaghetti top.
“What?” I asked.
She grunted and answered, “Even though I don’t really like the idea of living in Korea, hearing those oldies downstairs makes me wanna fly to Korea now. Like now na!”
“Hahaha. Mabuti nga at hindi na naman pinuna iyang suot mo. Bakit kasi para kang kapos lagi sa damit? You’re showing too much skin, all in one time. Reserve some for yourself.”
Lenna made a face and said, “Opo ate. Eh kasi naman po ang init ngayon at sabi mo po, we should save electricity. I’m sorry po. Next time I’ll just wear an overly oversized shirt and undies inside.”
“Gaga!” I exclaimed with a smile.
“Hahaha. Really, Ate, you need to loosen up. You are sooo uptight. You don’t need to act like you’re 20 or something just because you’re the ate. Act and feel young,” retorted Lenna.
I just smiled for a response.
At the age of twelve, Lenna could be mistaken as a high-schooler because of her towering height. Although the curves and the mounds are nowhere to be seen yet, her love for accessories and of dressing up makes her look older. As they say, ‘Nagmamadaling magdalaga’.
“You haven’t started your packing yet?” Lenna inquired. “The D-day is in two days!”
“I know alright. It’s just that I was wishfully thinking that this whole idea of moving to Korea would be called off. I just graduated elementary and the high school life I have in mind is one with my BFFS plus boys, in a new school, here in the Philippines. Not one with chinky-eyed strangers for a classmate in a country with a culture I am not even aware of! God, I only know of Chinese.. and Japanese.”
Lenna made a crooked smile and said, “Well.. Maybe Korea is not our choice but the gods had decided. Say annyeong to Korea, my dear sister!”

Dae Han Min Guk vs Pinas [Prologue]
PROLOGUE
2016 (present time)
Lotte World. South Korea.
I smiled, a wide one on that.
I can see happy faces. Lovers in love. Children at play. Families spending time together. People screaming, giggling and laughing. Everybody’s livin’ the life.
I just smiled once again.
When was the last time I’ve been here? I pondered and sighed. Ahhh. It was almost six years ago.
*Smirks*
Six years ago. When life was way better than it is now. When life was simple.. was free.. and was happy. I smiled once more, this time, a bitter one.
A light pull in my knee-length skirt brought me back to reality.
“What?” I asked.
“Omma, let’s go and see their skating rink,” answered Mel-joon. I looked at him with patronizing eyes and my heart just swelled with joy. Mel-joon is five years old now and grows each day looking similar to his father.
“Aren’t you tired? We’ve been exploring this huge place for more than three hours now. Omma needs to rest. Look at my feet.”
“Okay. I’m permitting you Omma to rest and sit for a while. The pigeons might feast on the worms at your feet,” Mel-joon said pointing at my tired feet.
I looked down and grimaced. I think I really need sclerotherapy.
I held his hand and we sat at the nearest bench. The park is surrounded with beautiful and colourful plants. The field of tulips in front of me is just a wonder. One reason why I’ve decided to stay here in Korea? Everything is a visual delight. Koreans seem to have a sixth sense, the aesthetic sense. And I love it. Everything feels dream-like. Everything seems perfect. A beautiful consolation to someone with a lonely heart.
I sighed and rubbed Mel-joon’s arms as I motioned him to lie down. He rested his head on my leg and stretched his little frame over the bench.
“Omma, can I take a nap? I think I’m tired,” said Mel-joon with half-closed eyes.
“We can go home now if you want.”
“No not yet Omma. Please. We haven’t checked the skating rink yet.” His sleepy eyes are now pleading.
I smiled. “Okay.” Mel-joon smiled back and proceeded to travel to Lalalala-land.
I watch the people as they pass by. And I laughed at the thought that I’m here in Lotte World with a kid, looking silly to everyone’s eye. So what? I’m single and happy. Uhhm. Well, I believe I’m happy. What’s wrong with that? As I quote one of my favourite Filipino movie, “Happiness is not an option. It’s a choice.” Oh diba bongga? Hahahaha. Oh man! I think I’m losing my sanity.
I suppressed a smile and bowed down my head. For one crazy moment, I felt young and carefree again. It’s funny and amazing. I think I should go out more often. Maybe my Vitamin D-deprived skin needs it. Hahaha. Okay. My soul needs it. I have to loosen up a bit. At 27, I look and feel like an old-maid. Whaaat? Oh no! Oh God please nooo! I wanna have a hubby and beautiful kids!
“Hahahahaha.” This time I made an audible and hearty laugh. I don’t care if people think I’ve gone insane. This time, with conviction, I say.. Rommie is happy. A wide smile is plastered on my face. Why I am feeling euphoric all of a sudden? I dunno. Does it really have to have a reason? Hahaha. My smile widened as I slowly lift my head up.
And then our eyes meet. The same eyes. The same look that melts my heart. The same warm feeling that engulfs my whole being. The same man. The only one.

Neverland: U-Kiss 2nd Album is out!
And I'm loving all of the songs in the album.
Especially Someday! In fact, I made a video of it. Check it out below!
Seriously, Neverland is the best album by U-KISS thus far. The balance between the upbeat songs and the ballad ones is simply commendable. The album made me feel a mix of overwhelming emotions. I dance and see Peter Pan every time I play the song "Neverland." Then "Baby Don't Cry" would make me feel solemn, emo and groovy all at the same time. And then "Someday!" I love the song and I just can't get enough of it! "Take Me Away, Love of A Friend and We'll Meet Again" are also my ballad favorites. Not just out of the album, but all-time! And lastly, I looove Top That! It's so upbeat, it would make you dance nonstop. Sit back, turn it up. Blast off, here we go! Awesome, definitely. God, I just love NEVERLAND!
The comeback was also awesome and unlike the others who thought that the costume(feathers) made them cringe, I loved it! I just love it. It reminded me of childhood and of fantasy stories! And the water stage/comeback at Inkigayo was simply the best! Daebak! It was awesome! U-Kiss Rocks! U-Kiss fighting!
