the stuff i'm made of

every time i get visitors on this site, my eyes grow big in disbelief how people (strangers most of them) care to read my mind, and how i simply don’t care to think aloud.. makes me wonder if my guests have any idea who/how i am beyond what my revealed ponderings say about me..
like, do they know ..
1. my first “suitor” pursued me starting in my kindergarten days 🥰

(i heard he’s now a pilot.. we would have been a handsome team?)
2. i started driving at age 15; stick shift / manual 🙄
3. not a car, but a jeep.
4. i have watched "little mermaid" more than 20x to date
5. and i don't mind watching it another 20x.
6. my fantasy is to play "ariel"; and joell is prince erik (no chance for this at all coz joell, too, wants to play ariel!? 😩)
7. my first love was a famous basketeer, a living legend in manila they call him.

15. one is to be a flight attendant
16. that has seen the light, alright

17. the other is to be a newscaster

wow, i am very, very, very impressed. to put one's thoughts in 'writing', ang hirap nyan. composing an essay on any topic, be it something that i am very knowledgable of or sonething i really detest, is hard enough. but putting your thought and your emotions into words... wow, my hat's off to you dear lady.
i 'know' you from high school but i'm sure you don't know me. i was going to e-mail kaso baka matakot ka na baka isa ako sa stalkers mo back in high school.
i read all of them, and it feels like you're 'singing'. hmm... why singing. i like to sing, and i sing well, if i may say so myself. and that's how i feel while reading your thoughts.
i chose to post my comment here kasi we have a lot in common. green is also my favorite color. mint green was our motif when my wife and i got married.
oops, sorry... mahaba na yata. i should have e-mailed na lang siguro.
looking forward for your next entry
