A Lot like Love

(I love that movie. But it isn't the topic.)

Friday night gave me my much-desired rest. It was afternoon when our Team Captain Angel broke to us a splendid news. Wlang pasok ngaun. wow. such great news. really.

I was enthralled when I headed for home at 6:30pm. Ang aga aga. And more so when I rode the bus all the way to alabang. Wow. Gaano na nga ba katagal? 5 months? Nonetheless, it seemed yet another first for me. Grabe, namiss ko ang rutang skyway southbound! Pati ung buhay na buhay na Alabang Market sa early night. And the traffic. I never thought those petty things are worth missing din pala.

But the most "missed" of them all was that boob-tube all set for the primetime viewing. I've been wanting (so much, it hurts) to see again Maging Sino Ka Man. The last time I saw it was I think 2 weeks ago, and I have seen it 5 times pa lang. Nakakapanghinayang tlga. The story is almost perfect, and it isn't your usual, ordinary telenovela.
It is quite amazing and un-amazing perhaps, that people are all looking for love at all directions, all looking at the wrong persons, pleading and begging, when someone out there is very much willing to give it to them. How funny. And how unfortunate too. This is what happens to these 4 characters. All somewhat oblivious to their surrounding. It is troublesome to note that people could be sensitive to their own feelings, yet insensitive to others'. Diba? Bakit kaya ganun? But we are not only talking of love in here, because love in itself is quite boring, and not that much interesting. You have in here too issues, and opposites such as cowardice and bravery, uncertainty, oblivion, selfishness, freedom, judgement to name a few. And of course, I nearly forgot. Impulse.
The story I liked in here is the one between JB and Celine. I don't know why, but theirs is a story more closely knit in to the reality. and theirs is the more kakaawa one. They have inner demons,and inner conflicts that are big hindrances to them. And un ang nakakaawa. It is most difficult to fight those u can't figure out right away. How can you solve a problem like yourself, anyway?

(Cheezy me. )
