EUNICE'S ALMOST PARADISE BLOG ~ LOL.

I'm Back in Cyber World!

Yep yeps! That's right. You read what's on the banner right. I'm back after 2 weeks. Exactly after 2 weeks. I missed my blog so much. Thanks for all of you who tagged and linked me! And voted in my poll. Thanks. Really

I must admit- I'm not satisfied with my vacation.. in tagalog, i'm "bitin". Haha, I wished I stayed there longer. I miss them so much already.. I miss the happiness, the laughter, the sadness, the crying times.. so much has happened. And I'm really missing all of those. Yeah, I went to the province but I'm not telling the exact name of this province.. sorry, need privacy ^^ Uhm this post is going to be a long one.. I will be staying up for a little longer just for this post. Haha. I spent my two weeks in my second home. Yup, second home. You know what I'm talking about, right? I had so much fun with my second family.. my brother-in-law, sister-in-laws, etcetera etcetera! Haha, and of course! I was with HIM .

My Brother-in-law's Wife
I met her months back already, but the day I arrived in the province, that was only when I got the chance to know her better- Much better. Let's call her Jenny since it's her nickname. I realized she's not that bad. In fact, she's a fun to be with person. She's funny, no- she's hilarious! Super hilarious. I like her already ^^

But deep within her fun personality lies a problem that she finds really hard to face. I pity her.. It's because of my brother-in-law. Let's call him "Palos" since it's his nickname. They're already living under one roof, but.. she's got a problem with him. You know what it is? It's because her husband is LAZY. I hate to admit it but he's really very lazy... He doesn't want to make a living for his family. He doesn't want to look for a job! All he wants to do is lay down with Jenny and talk about tons of things. He goes to work ONCE A WEEK-- which irritates Jenny so much. They quarrel almost all of the time just because of that matter. Despite Jenny's irritation for him, he still doesn't change.. and will not ever change...

I pity Jenny. She's industrious.. very. She's got everything a man's looking for in a woman. Well, she may not be that pretty but she's got the personality. I feel for her...

The Rice Field
During my so-called vacation, I got the chance to come with them to the rice field. The place is called "Iligan". 15 to 20 minutes walk from my second home. The boys head there first-- namely Onofre (my bf), Tiban (my sis-in-law's hubby), B-Yong (my bf's cousin). They always head there for work 'cos the rice field is my bf's cousin's property.

We girls will automatically follow them to Iligan after 2-3 hours have passed. Namely Eunice (me), Marissa and Maricel (the twins, my sis-in-laws) and Jenny. We always made sure we were well-prepared! Haha. We took these things with us:

water/hot water/ice

coffee/milo

plates, mugs

viands, rice

extra clothes, towels

spoons, knife

PSP, cellphones

playing cards (baraha)

and of course, money.

Pretty much, huh? Hehe! "Kulang na lang eh buong bahay na ang dalhin natin" says ate Marissa. I lol'ed hard when she said that.

I experienced working in that rice field, too. What I did was "manghimalay". I don't know the english term for that but it is done by picking up unhusked rice grains. (palay in tagalog). We had so much fun doing that. Too bad Ate Marissa couldn't join. It's because she's pregnant with her second boy :) Hweel!

My Very Cute Godchild
Well, at least in the future! I will be calling him my godchild since he'll be calling me "ninang" (godmother) soon! Tee hee :)

His name is Richard but we call him "Tutoy". He's the clan's favorite kid! And I agree. because he's really adorable! (If only I have a picture of him. Next time!) He has a nice set of white teeth. He's only 2 and a half years old. I love that kid sooooo.... much! Just looking at him makes me want to have a baby soon.. haha! But of course that's not possible at this time of my life xD Harhar ^^

He has a huge respect for Onofre. He follows everything he says. He's got fear for him but not really that much. It just shows that Onofre disciplined Tutoy well.

Tutoy loves to kiss me! Haha, at a very young age... he already knew those stuffs. "Smart kid", that's what we always say. He loves to kiss me lips-to-lips.. haha! Everytime Ate Marissa (Tutoy's mother) sees him kissing me, she would always shout "Dayo ohhhh!! Si Tutoy hinahalikan si Uy!". (Dayo look! Tutoy is kissing Uy!) Tutoy automatically stayed away from me upon hearing that :) haha, Smart Kid!

Oh, and by the way, the "Dayo" Ate Marissa was talking about is my bf. Dayo is his nickname.
Life is really fun when kids like Tutoy is around you. I

that kid so much!

His Last Secret
This one entry here's about love. This entry belongs to the Romance category, haha. (As if there's a category section around here xD)

Well, enough of that. Here goes. It's about a girl.. a picture.
Last year, he showed me a picture. A picture of a woman. He told me "That's Judith, my cousin. She's white in this picture, right? Haha!" I took a closer look at the picture. After a while, I lol'ed. Hard because it's true! She's so white-skinned in the pic .. haha but in the present, she's really dark-skinned. (Hehe, sorry Dith! ^^)

So there.. I believed him that the girl in the pic was Judith-- his cousin.
But two days ago, Ate Anie and I went to Curva (kurba) to but bbq's for her business. On our way back, we passed by a woman.. we just passed by her but in my heart, something was telling me that I've seen that woman before.. I just don't know where.. and when. Suddenly, Ate Anie broke the silence. She said "Dayo courted that girl once". I was like, "what the ..?!".. because I know Dayo only had two not-serious relationships before me.. So I said to myself, "So that means... 3 girls before me?".. I was so confused that I asked Ate Anie for more information. She said "her name's Dewdith". That was when a bomb exploded in my mind. Dewdith... Judith.. same pronouncation.. That's right! She's the girl in the picture! Upon learning that, I felt like losing my energy.. Yeah I know, I shouldn't just believe rumors that easily but the girl we passed by and the the one in the picture looked alike so much.. No mistake about it... I was so hurt... "How could he do this to me? He lied..." I said to myself...

When he got home from the rice field, I showed him the pic and asked him "Is this really Judith? Your cousin?", He said "yes" without even bothering to look me in the eye. When I heard his yes, I just kept the pain all to myself. I went to look for Ate Anie.. and said, "confirmed. he lied.."..

The clock striked 6pm. We were lying down when I said, "All I want to know is the truth.. Please tell me.. I know she's not Judith your cousin.." He remained silent. Because of his silence, I got so impatient I started to get irritated and shouted "Tell me now!!". After approximately 15 seconds, he broke the ice. "She's my ex." I didn't expect that answer.. all I expected for was "yes it's true that I courted her" but what the hell... no! They had something! He lied to me.. he made me believe that the girl in the pic was only his cousin.. I hated him so much after that..

So many questions were left hanging and lingering in my mind. Like why did you break up? , when?, why did you lie? But I only got the chance to ask him about those the next day.. They went for almost 9 months.. He courted her just because of his cousin's dare. He lied to me because he didn't want to hurt me anymore... We were in the rice field that time. We were laying down inside the mini hut, talking about those things..

I was hurt. So much 'cos he lied to me..
Me: "please take my heart out of my chest now..."
Him: "Why?..."
Me: "So that I won't feel any pain anymore.."
Him: "..."
Me: "Take it out of me and throw it away.. nevermind whoever picks it up.."
Him: "NO."
Me: "...?"
Him: "Your heart is mine. I will never give your heart away to anyone. That's mine. Only mine".

enveloped my heart that very moment but I didn't show it.. I dunno why! Haha kilig factor.. But the truth was, I didn't expect him to say those words.

When it was time to go home,we talked while walking. He told me, "I dedicate this song to you.." and then the song Sabihin Mo Na by Yeng Constantino played in the air..

Gusto kong magpaliwanag sa'yo..
Ngunit di kinakausap..
Di ko inaasahang diringgin mo..
Nakatingala sa ulap..

(Dayo singing)
Alam kong nasaktan na naman kita..
Ngunit 'di ko naman sinasadya..
Hinding-hindi na mauulit sinta..
Sana'y.. Maniwala ka...

After singing.. he said:

"Those girls just passed by me. They mean nothing to me.
What's important to me is you.. Only you."
(Dumaan lang sila sa akin.. Wala silang halaga sa akin. Ang mahalaga sa akin ay ikaw.")
