Ice Carvings

though i wanted to attempt writing poetry again, i don't think i'm in the mood to bleed ink. So pulled one from my archives of better known poems by writers better than me. Here is a classic from Lualhati Bautista. I first read this during my college days. 20 f@king plus years ago. --- Dyugdyugan bago ka lumapit, gusto kong malaman mo na sa loob ng maluwang na blusa ko diretsahan ito, wala akong suso. ang sagot niya, wala raw ‘yong kaso. nawi-wish ko rin na sana’y pareho kami ni carmi martin huwag kang tanga, sagot niya pag gano’n na kalaki, mahirap ding dalhin. siguro’y alam mo ring nagdaan na ‘ko sa iba sa kamang ganito, meron nang nakasama. ang sagot niya, basta mahal kita. ang tiyan ko’y marami nang bakat ng nagdaang panganganak. sabi niya, hulog daw iyon ng langit bunga lang ng matamis na pakikipagtalik. pero si sharon cuneta, sa kanyang pelikula may asawa na’y virgin pa. sabi niya, kaya kita mo, hindi siya lumigaya. sinasabi ko lang

All the words that we have to say They don't leave when the moment comes  We know we have to wait As the days go on and the places fade away to dirt and to dust, it all fades away And the waiting is the hardest thing to take In a moment more before we break If you have to let it go And these dreams keep you awake If you have to let it go Walk away And the shapes we want to see Don't leave another piece that this puzzle needs If you have to let it go And these dreams keep you awake If you have to let it go Walk away - Walk Away, Funeral For A Friend (from the album Tales Don't Tell Themselves) ------ 2013 is an excellent time to get out of the dark and start acting like your age.

Sherlock! I love the way this franchise got rebooted.And especially the way they decided to just put 3 90 minutes episodes in the initial season. Considering i have been rereading SH since the first movie went out, it was a blast to see my favorite detective in a new environment. Everything perfect - the script, the treatment, the visuals, the villains. Warning to the unread, you may still enjoy the series, but please do take time to read the books. Most of the stuff is already - copyright free. It'll help you understand the subtle homage attempts. Can't wait for season 2, which is widely available. This weekend then, off we go to DVD land. Before my first public DJ session. :)

Just read online the participants for the 3 pt shootout in the All Star Festivities next week. WTF? No Jimmer in the 3 point contest??? Somebody has to take the blame. I blame his Coach, who utilizes Jimmer like a knife in a shootout. Despite his marked improvement, his exposure and minutes are as consistent as hell. But mainly, FTM. 

You know the feeling you know where you're headed toward somewhere and you know which direction to take yet you fidget with the mirror, consult the travel maps yet again and generally try all to reason yourself out of travelling? I don't either. My life is pointless. What good are maps if you hesitate to step on the gas? Maybe i should take up meditation. Or medication. Or both. Blogs don't have to be long entries all the time so screw it. I'm out.
