This is my LSS for today.

I don't know why but I feel so light and uninhibited. Just about to break free . . .

Watta GV tune!

BECOMING VEGAN?

It felt odd but familiar.

There was an instant connection after we were introduced. I don't usually warm up to strangers nor comfortable with first meetings but our small talk was natural and effortless. It was as if we had known each other for long.

Sort of kindred spirits.

She was with an old buddy I hadn't seen for 15 years. We had a quick dinner since my friend was here for a short layover en route to Paris. Conversation was light, mostly reminiscing on our trouble-making yet geeky years.

While my friend was all agog recalling all my juvenile bloopers, I couldn't help but get distracted by her.

The way she listened to our anecdotes. The way she looked at me while I desperately defended myself from my friend's assaults. Her cute chuckle at every funny story. Her charming shock at every bombshell. Even the way she sipped her green tea captivated me.

My friend noticed my divided attention that he was no longer mocking me about my sloppy past. He was already playing cupid. From being my attacker to being my matchmaker.

I enjoyed the teasing part. I relished the idea of future dates. And kinda looking forward to some arrows flying.

Needless to say, we exchanged numbers.

She's going to start a new job here in a couple of months.

RELASYON

Ang pakikipag-relasyon ay di pinaplano.

Kusa lamang itong darating at hindi kailangan hagilapin. Kung OA ka sa paghahanap, mas lalo itong maging mailap.

Hindi uubra ang pagiging SMART. Dapat keri lang at go with the flow.

Sa dami-dami ng mga bumabaluktot ngayon at nagkukulay rainbow, malamang kahit isa man lang, may matatalisod ka. Kung tingin mo, type mo, e di gow! Kapit, wag matakot! Kung tingin mo, type ka rin, mas lalong gow! Then you both start from there. Dapat same page, para sabay ang basa. Build it from there 'baga. Expectations kept at a minimum. Kung pupuwede, none at all.

Kung malas ang pangalan mo at one-way street lang pala, gow pa rin. But this time, gow the OTHER way. Sa madaling sabi, teh let gow. Sabi ko nga sa old post ko (at mantra ko na rin), the way to grow is to let go! Wag pilitin ang ayaw. Kasi didikit lang.

Ngayon kung medyo hirap ka sa lecheng letting go na yan, e di i-baby mo muna yang emo feeling na yan. Malay mo matrip-an mo pala. Maging santa santita ka pa ng mga sawi at bigo. Titulo yun. At least!

Kung ika'y sinwerte naman at konting antayan lang, dumating agad si Godot, naku be happy and gay! Magpasalamat ka bonggaciously! Pahalagahan ang dumating. Wag na maraming issues. Concentrate at palaguin ang pagsasama.

Warning though!

Hindi lahat po, puro saya, kilig at libog. Meron ding pagkabagot, pagkainis at pagkadismaya. Minsan nga pagkamuhi pa. Pero kung na decide mo na worth keeping sya, kever lang di ba? Lahat naman may katapusan. Kung lilipas ang kilig at libog. Malamang lilipas din ang pagkamuhi at pagkabagot.

Ang mahalaga ma appreciate mo kahit may konting kulang (o minsan, sobra) sa kanya. Isipin mo rin, baka ikaw may kulang (o sobra) din sa pananaw nya.

Basta ganun lang.

Kung nagkaka migraine ka na sa kakaisip ng mga bagay-bagay, e di STOP! Pag bored ka na sa STOP, mag yellow ka lang sandali. Tapos GO na ulit.

Ang relasyon ay parang isang traffic light lamang.

Touch & Go. Stop & Go.

DIVERGENCE

Two disparate systems joined by chance.

Fundamentally distinct but moving in unison. Essentially different yet going in one direction.

Apply shock. Get the probable point of divergence.

Two parallel lines intersecting.

Two discrete worlds colliding.

UNO

I didn't notice until I went to Luis' batchoyan.

A year of decelerating.
