Phenomenal Woman by Maya Angelou
Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman

Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need of my care,
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Bukas na Liham

Ginugunita ko pa din hanggang ngayon kung paanu tayo nagsimula. Tipong natapos ng hindi sinimulan. Ikaw ang dahil kugn bakit ko ito itatala sa Blogsite na ito at ipagpalit ang konting minuto ng pagttrabaho para lamang sa pagbubulalas ng damdamin.

Sa pagkakatanda ko...lumipas ang siyam na taon bago ko ulit naramdaman ang ganitong sentimiyento. Nakakaburyong!

Kung hindi ko ito issulat. iiyak ako. Malamang...

Nangyayare na naman, paulit ulit na din lng! Pag lumayo ako. Lalapit ka. Lalayo ka...hahabulin kita! Walang patutunguhan! Tumatagal at lumilipas ang panahon na ganuon na lang nag nangayayari at hinahayaan ko naman. ..

Tandang tanda ko pa ang paghahabol mo at pagtatanggol na ipaglaban ang nararamdaman mo..ang sarap balikbalikan! Napakapuro. Walang humaharang sa isip mo. Ako lng.Pero ako ang pilit na lumayo.Inaamin ko naman.....

Kaya nakakabiglang malaman na sa loob ng apatnapu't walong oras, magbabago ang lahat...ayoko ng idetalye dahil namumuhi ako! Poot ang nangingibabaw. Di man kita matanaw na kasama ang iba,kaulayaw mo nmn sa sariling isipan ang iba!Na kung kailan,dko na ginapos ang nararamdaman at hinayaang sumabay sa agos, ikaw nmn ag pilit lumayo. Hwag mong isumbat, dahil pinili kong ibalik ang lahat, na hindi naman nangyare. At yun ang ikinamumuhi ko.

Pero yun ang nakaraan..at patuloy pa din namang paminsan minsan ay ako pa din ang nakakaulayaw ng hungkag at walang saysay mong isipan. Patawad kong matatawag kung gayon ang pag iisip mo, dahil puno ako ng inis, pero maari mo ding sabihing ito ay isang kabalintunaan! At igagalang ko yon...


Eh.. bakit ba hindi ko itinuloy?
Naiisip ko pa lang na subukang panindigan ang damdaming kinubli, alam ko , walang kahihinatnan. Tatagos pa din ang pagkatakot.Siguro nga ay natatakot lamang ako sa maaring kahihinatnan ng desisyon at mga pagsisisi. Takot akong magsisi sa huli, dahil malayo yan sa mga paniniwala ko. Pero hindi ba ako nagsisisi ngyn? wala bang pumapasok kahit kaunti mang pagsisisi? panghihinayang? Anumang salita ang gamitin,di ko maissuot sa sako o sa iskaparate ang resulta ng patuloy na pagkkubli. Ako ang nahihirapan,at nagpapakitang ang nararamdaman ko ngayon ang nagddugtong sa realidad, sa nakkikita ko sa sarili ko. Wala ng sariling pagkkunwari at pagtatanggol. WAla. Ako pa den ang talunan!

At napagdesisyunang, hahayaan ko na lamang maging ganito. Dahil ako ay maihahalintulad lamang sa isang kagutuman na minsanan lng kung dumating sayo. Sa kadalasan ay kung kailangan mo. Ayoko din namang ikaw ang lumisan, o ako man! Gusto kong tapusin pero Di ko mabigyan ng dahilan sa sarili upang tuldukan ang lahat. Gusto ko ay may katapusan. Para madaling tangayin ng hangin at kalimutan. Mas mainam kung hindi maganda, dahil hindi ako naniniwala sa kagandahan ng katapusan sa pag-ibig. Lahat may Paghihirap. Pasakit.

Kaya ko namang iwaglit ang nakahulma mong pagkatao sa isip ko..ang totoo, kaya ko! Nahihirapan lgn ako.. ang nais ko ay aminin mong hindi mo rin kaya at pilit mo ring ikinukubli. Ang gusto ko ay ipahiwatig mo ito sa salita. Ayoko ng magbasa ng kilos mo...

Mananalangin na lamang ako, at kakapit sa isang himala na daratign ang panahon na ang ulo ko mismo ang iuuntog sa matigas bagay at patuloy na tatawanan ang lahat.
Harinawa!

*pahabol*
Ang lakas ng loob ko pero anu ba ang ikinababalisa ko, hindi mo naman paglalaaanan ng oras ang magbasa ng ganito at alm kong hindi masasagi ng iyong mga mata ang ganitong klase ng kabaliwan! Pero hindi naman ito para sayo..para sa ken ito! At gaya ng nabanggit ko iyo.,ang lahat ng ito ay paulit-ulit kong ihihingi ng tawad,,sa sarili ko at sayo!

TAYTAY FaLLs (Majayjay Falls)

Initialy, this Laboy supposed to be a visit in PagsanjanFalls, pero it ended in Majayjay. (kase that time ayoko sumakay sa bangka..medyo napapaisip pa at natatakot=)). Am not sure and i dont know if my memory serves me well, but as i remember, this was my first nature trip with a buddy, tas nagtuloy tuloy na..it happened Feb 0f 2008. Nun lang kase ngkaron ng sapat na pera at trabaho para matupad ang pangarap! (NAKS!hehe)
So there,we've ran out of time to visit other falls since going to another falls would really take few hours of trekking. Di nmen alm ang pagpunta, but asking people around that area helped us..hehehe=) Eto na nawawala na kame.. hahaha

Ive heard Majayjay had 7Falls around the mountains. We only had a chance to get to the nearest falls w/c is TayTay Falls, where it would only take you 10-15 minutes of walks. Lapit lng! Mas malayo pa yung travel pababa ng bundok sa jeep=)

SO TAKE A LOOK BELOW COLLECTED PICS. WALA PKONG MAAYOS NA DIGI CAM. NANG ERAM LNG and SOME SHOTS THRU ULYDEL's MOBILEPHONE.

SUNSET VIEW FROM PUNDAQUIT BEACH RESORT
another OutOf Town with MyHighschoolFriends, still in Zambales and this i highly recommend..where you could spend not much money and enjoy the nature at the same time.

*just Message me if you wanna know some how-to-get-there infos, my pleasure to give details!*

You can visit 3 islands on this Town, Capones,Kamara and Anawangin, found in San Antonio, Pundaquit , Zambales. There are resort around on that area so a place to stay is not a problem before doing the Island hopping .



KAMARA ISLAND
Storm passed before we went there,and we're lucky 'tho.On that day...the sky was clear and weather was really great!The good thing about Kamara is that , it has a Sandbar on the middle and you wont see the whitesand during hightide.
Trivia: if you've seen the Dingdong Dantes and marian Rivera's advertisement of SAnMarinoCornbeef, You'll see the ISland on the Background.=)









CAPONES ISLAND
Very relaxing place too..we did rounds on this island but we've never been to Lighthouse. We're told na its delikado daw. Hmmm..i doubted kase,pinupuntahan tlg un eh. Ewan ko ba dun sa bangkero na yun! We just had our lunch there and ended our day in Kamara island, then went back to the resort.















PUNDAQUIT FALLS
yun o! me falls din..few minutes trekking along mountain of pundaquit.
Akala ko beack lang..hweeeeeeeeeee!!!=)

ANAWANGIN COVE

Ive been to this place last November of 2008. This was after me and my Highschool friends had a vacation last Sept2008,and visited only CApones and Kamara island. After a month, ive decided to get back on that place we've missed, and Explored Anawangin...

I went back there with a friend....

HERE ARE THE SHOTS WE'VE GOT FROM THAT ISLAND and wOULD TELL THE TALE ITSELF :
Got a chance to explore the FOrest side..that was noon and so serene, only birds and rustling of leaves resonates on that area. Ive tried to look for the river's end, anticipating i might see the Falls, but i failed and went back, got feared that i might lost and never have my way out of the forest.

AKO ANG DIWATA NG MGA PINETREES! TADAAAA!!! =)

yipeee..puno!!!!=)











SA ILOG...











SA DAGAT...








BeLow is The Other side of Anawangin...

...I forgot the name of the Cove but it's a private island owned by someone who also had a resort in zambales. According to Marvin, there are still wild animals found on that place. Its quite few , but there is and not devirginized during that time. No camping site yet on that area. Only the company of trees, animals ,the blue sky and sea will entertain your sight. Very reLaxing..actually isa to sa gusto kong babain from mababang bundok at iexplore.=)

Marvin (the ever reliabLe bangkero, he's been with us the whole day, tell stories of anawangin, cooked our lunch, and assisted us in every way he couLd...mabaeT pa..his monicker : Marvin AKA 'dingdong danTis')
**just in case you have plans on visiting the islands of ZAMBALES, recemmended bangkero would be Marvin. =)


I FELL IN LOVE ON THAT ISLAND and I AM STILL FALLING...I REALLY AM LOOKING FORWARD ON GOING BACK even IF IT WOULD TAKE ME ALONE TO GO THERE , I WILL..sigh!
