"Dahil sa'yo at sa programa mo pakiramdam ko hindi ako mag-isa."
- said by a blind old woman living alone when we once visited her home
(iniwan na sya ng mga anak nya and she only had her aspin acting as her guide dog and guard at home. mga concerned kapitbahay na lang din ang nagbibigay sakanya ng pagkain every meal)
a little side note: i am an fm radio dj hosting a narrative drama program
“marami pang mananakit sa’yo kaya tumahan ka na” hahahahaha i know ang harsh pero it was what i needed during my first ever heartbreak!! di na ako nasaktan, instead i felt relief hehe
“Mas nakakahiya kung nahihiya ka” sabi sakin ng conductor ko nung mga time na kinakabahan ako palagi kumanta sa harap ng marami.
Nadala ko na to hanggang pag tanda ko. Hindi nako nahihiya pag public speaking o live performance.
Totoo talaga na nakikita ng audience na kinakabahan yung tao and mas entertained sila pag confident yung nagpeperform o nagsasalita.
Truth yan. Took me years to realized na mas nakakahiya pag nahihiya ka. Imagine, dmo binati yung tao dahil lang sa nahihiya ka, pero mas nakakahiya yung dmo sya pinansin dba.
“ang swerte ng mga kaibigan mo sayo”
naalala ko sinabi ‘to sakin nung nakausap ko dati sa omegle, nag-rarant kasi ata siya about something nun or basta may shinare siya. ayun, usap usap advice advice
this one too. sabi ng PE prof ko sakin nung college.
nag absent kasi ako for PE class para makauwi sa province kasi namatay father ng bestfriend ko. it was sudden and tragic.
natakot pa ako nun kasi strict si Ma'am and alam ko naman na di excused yun pero decided to tell the truth nalang at magpaalam.
di sya nagalit at yan ang sinabi nya.
Years after mamatay si papa (4mos pa lang kami nito), my boyfriend confessed to me na kinausap nya si papa noong nasa kabaong.
“Hindi ko po pababayaan si *insert my name*”
😭😭😭
And he still holds to his promise up to this day. Going 12years this year.
*“Mukhang aso kung ngumiti”* sabi ng kaklase ko dati habang nasa flag ceremony kami. Ito talaga naisip ko after kong mabasa 'yan. Until now it affects me when smiling. Mula non hindi na ako ngumiti ng kita ngipin (sa pics). I always overthink kung paano ba ang tamang ngiti sa pictures. Hindi naman malaki ngipin ko for that, I think hindi rin naman oa ngiti ko but I always overthink.
"kung hindi mo kaya gawin linisin ang mga plato, ano pa ang hindi mo kaya gawin?"
I was putting off the plates because I was playing. My dad came home and saw it. I was lazy when I was younger. Hated doing chores. When my dad said that, that changed my perspective. If I can do it now, or needs to be done. I do it. Started hating putting things off because it swims around in my mind that I need to do it. And that can weigh a lot if accumulated.
Aslo,
"the sooner you shut up and do it, the sooner you'll finish"
I also used to complain a lot and whine when there's a lot of workload. Also my dad's saying lol.
“Wala ka naman kwenta eh” sabi ng tatay ko .
After ko sabihin na walang mangyayari sa pamilya naman maganda pag di Nitya tinigil ang pagsusugal nya.
Tapos binanatan na ako ng mga tirada na wala naman ako tinutulong sa bahay .
College pa lang ako nun.
Natahimik ako at Napa self reflect.
Hahaha
Wala nga pala akong kwenta sa pamilya that point of time.😂😂😂
Di ako nasaktan sa nadinig ko pero it’s much more of a wake up call.
Ngayon matanda na ako nabanggit ko yan sa tatay ko nagpapasalamat ako sinabi nya sa akin yun kasi mas naging responsible adult ako.
Si tatay ko naman in denial di nya daw sinabi yun 😂😂😂
hugs 🫂 that's a fcked up thing to say tho.
don't believe them, yung mom ko naitaguyod ako as a single mom, napagraduate ako despite everything. Then 35 yrs old sya when she met my stepdad.
7 years after going strong parin sila ❤️
'You're not good enough.' - Sabi saking nung HS student na acting coach nung grade 5 ako nuong nag tryout ako sa volleyball team. I was the tallest kid in the class and those words scarred me as a kid, I lost all of my confidence.
First time ako masabihan ng **BOBO**. Yung unang away namin as mag-asawa.
I’m trying to make him understand saan ako nang gagaling. Pero ayaw niya intindihin.
Iyak talaga ako. I took it personally because it is. Alam niya ayaw ko ng name calling.
**NO ONE** has ever called me that. Not even my family, kahit kami nag-aaway ng kuya ko. Wala sa lugar namin ang ganun.
"Hi! ang cute mo\~"
sabi ng nakalaban kong Korean badminton player noong highschool (friendly competition with local schools)
Default description sakin is mukhang "hoodlum" o "kawatan". First time in my life na may nagsabi sakin ng ganun..
“Hindi mo deserve mag education.” - I took that personally and I’ve been a preschool teacher for 3 years with a license then yung nagsabi sakin, hanggang ngayon di makapasa ng exam.
“Mahal naman…”
“Oo nga, mahal.”
Convo namin ng wife ko noong naglalandian este magkachat pa lang kami. Topic namin ay yung concert ticket yata ng local bands.
"Wag ako, di ako deserve."
Kahit sobrang deserving niya naman. Pang forever haha ayaw nila lang talaga saken.
Nagpaparamdam pa lang ako, basted na agad 🤣
Yes, girl ako lol.
Marami pero ang madalas kong naaalala and naiisip ko right now is from a top notcher na nagturo samin nung college. He said na "malayo mararating neto" to me, who's not really an achiever that time (in terms of grades) and sa daming mas-deserve makarinig nun. I didn't feel that much pressure to me either after hearing this pero nung narinig ko to, it never stopped echoing in my mind every time and ilang beses narin akong na-pump up neto. I can't say na I already lived up to his expectations, (he prolly don't remember me anymore) but so far nakakamit ko naman ung mga life goals ko right now (license, dream job, etc). I have a lot pa to prove to myself but I still often thank him in my mind, thinking it would reach him, for acknowledging someone like me.
"Mas maganda ka pa dun e"
My girlfriends seriously said this to me - comparing me to another girl, lagi ko lang kasi jinojoke na GGS ako. Pero yung seryoso nila sinabi 'yun, DAMN I BLUSHED HARD.
"Yung aura mo ang gaan gaan"
Whenever I feel like self deprecating, inaalala ko tong words ng online friend na nakita ko in person tapos yan sinabi sakin and I feel better na ulit. 🥹💖
"Ang pangit mo", "di ka maganda"
These were said to me by ADULTs. I was 6 years old at that time when I first encountered it, hanggang HS, lagi kong naririnig sa kanila. It deeply affected my self-esteem up until today (Nearing my 30's)
"Ang mahalaga, importante.." parang joke time pero pag inisip mo malalim maybpoint naman nga. Na dapat na ipriority mo ang mga tao at bagay na important sayo kesa sa ibang bagay. Kasi maikli lang buhay so limited ang time and effort mo na maibubuhos sa mga bagay. So ayun. Hahaha. Pero masarap din pang gago na statement sa mga tropa haha.
Sinabihan ako ng engr. tita ko nang “gaya gaya, puto maya” dahil i’m taking up engineering din. Ayon after ilang years nanghihiram sakin 300k pampagawa nya ng bahay🤣 “NO” ka sakin ngayon hahaha
"Sabi ko sa kanila, unang kita ko pa lang sayo alam kong mabuting tao ka." - bungad sa akin ng 83yo lola ni SO. Nakaka-overwhelm coming sa very old school at mataray looking na lola at first time ko lang syang na-meet noon.
Skl to expound pa nang kaunti, my friend (na nagsabi no'n sa'kin) was at that place na halos maramdaman na niya na wala na siyang kakampi from our circle of friends dahil hindi man lang pinakinggan ang side niya sa mga naging issues sa group. Sadly, according to her, ako lang daw ang bukod-tanging lumapit sa kaniya at nakinig; which later on, mas nagstrengthen 'yong friendship namin.
“Ur kind and brave soul deserves the best( makukuha mo din yung sukli sa lahat ng sacrifices mo).”
“Thanks for existing” “Idol kita pagdating sa lakas at tapang ng loob. Proud of u always and will forever be amazed by your strength.”
Hindi na sya one phrase lang. 😅 Actually these words really helped me. As someone na softie naman talaga inside and mabilis maiyak and feeling ko hindi naman talaga ako strong na tao. 😭
Mababaw na kung mababaw but I remember a British boss telling me before he left our department na “In this whole department, (my name) has the best taste in music.” HAHAHAH DI NYA ALAM NAKIKINIG DIN AKO SKUSTA CLEE AT EX BATALLION LOL.
Back when I was in college, in my trigonometry subject, the professor saw me doing some sketches not related to the subject and told me “Mag fine arts ka na lang and not engineering”…. Ended up doing loving software engineering to prove he is wrong.
“Please keep striving because your presence brings peace and tranquility”
“Remember the letter I gave you on your birthday? I told you, you saved me first”
🥹
"Ang ganda mo talaga."
"Ang ganda ganda mo."
"Ikaw lang maganda para sakin."
Lagi sinasabi sakin ni husband yan. Growing up, sobrang baba ng confidence ko kasi wala rin naman nagsasabi saking maganda ako — even my parents. Wala akong naalalang ex na nagsabi nyan, puro "I love you" at "hindi kita iiwan" pero mga tengene nagsipagalisan naman HAHAHAHA! Itong si husband, lagi nya sinasabi yan lalo na pag sinasabi kong ang pangit ng ilong ko, ang pangit ng buhok ko, basta anytime. Ayon. Keleg. 🙈
“Bakit ka ganyan? Nakakalunod ka magmahal, hindi ko alam if totoo ba mga pinapakita mo” nung tumagal nalaman niya na sagot sa tanong niya tapos balik na nang balik.🥴
"Sobrang bait mo. Lahat kayang kaya kang gustuhin pero sana ako lang."
"Ang bango mo. Yung amoy mo ay yung tipong kakagatin na kita."
Anyway, di ko lang din makalimutan dahil these words still manage to boost my confidence 'til now.
"Natutuwa ako sayo kasi ang professional mo kausap." Sabi sa kin ng papa ng tropa ko na first time ko na-meet habang nag-iinuman kami.
As someone na mababa ang self-esteem, palaging anxious, at may anti-social tendencies, this really melt my heart.
"Gusto ko talaga tong si *my name*. (Meant as a compliment lang) Ang liwanag ng paligid kasi lagi syang nakangiti".
- nasa training center kami sa Laguna, on our fourth month ng paghihirap. May mga lalake kami sa battalion, di ko sila close talaga pero lagi kasi akong ngumingiti kahit mag-isa ako oftentimes (lalo na kung nakakain ako ng leeg ng manok lol). Nagulat lang ako na sinabi nun ng isa kong kabattalion. Nickname ko dun sa kanila Ms Sunshine.
TRIGGER WARNING:
"hindot ka."
this was more than 5 years ago. naabutan niya akong wala sa bahay tapos ako namang batang malandi talaga, nakipagkita ako nun nang wala sa oras sa then fubu ko. hahaha.
i could laugh at it now pero may kurot kapag naaalala ko. i have vague recollection of my memories from 2015-2019 pero eto yung hinding-hindi ko makakalimutang sinabi sakin ng tatay ko. yes, sa tatay ko po nanggaling yung mga salitang yan.
we're all in good terms now. hehe
"Dapat pala hindi namin binuhos support namin ng dad mo noong nag aaral ka, useless na anak" -mom 2020..
Motivation ko para bumukod at mag cut off ng connection sa parents. Hindi ko naman ginusto na mag pandemic at mawalan ng career direction kasi fresh grad ako noon lol. It was already depressing tapos sasabihin ka pang walang kwenta
"Wala kang mararating sa buhay" hindi sya nakakakilig pero sinabi to ng teacher ko dati. 18 yrs later, naalala ko pa rin na parang kahapon yung oras na sinabi nya ito saken.
"If may tao man na mapagkakatiwalaan mo sa problema mo, yung tipong makaka share ka ng walang halong judgement, si \[name ko\] yun". My friend said this to our other friend when he was hesitant to share his problem. Hindi man directly to sinabi sa akin pero I was there when she said this. Nakakagaan lang sa puso.
"Ang swerte kong nanay sa inyong mga anak ko."
Nung nagkaron na kami ng work magkakapatid, masaya kami na nasusustentuhan na namin ang parents namin. Out of good will and not out of required responsibility.
We grew up poor, nangutang, kumayod, gumapang sila para samin, so kami naman para sa kanila. :)
"Ang galing mo na magbike"
lately lang ako natuto magbike for some reason. my mom being overthinker and paranoid, lagi niyang sinasabi na wag ako magbike sa natl road or use bikes na malalaki/matataas, "di mo kaya yan" "di ka magaling". Kaya when she complimented me, iyak tawa hahahaha i feel do proud of myself
After ko manganak sa panganay ko ~7 yrs ago, my kumare said “ang cute ng inaanak ko! Buti di mo kamukha no?” Parehong chats and in person. Tumagal ng 2-3 yrs to.
Buntis ako now and I am really tempted to unfriend her. Puro negats na lang. I don’t feel too ugly in both of my pregnanciespero gets ko naman na di ito ung peak ko. Why bruise a preggos ego diba?
"She just does things"
from someone who i imagined my future with decided to go back to his toxic manipulative ex na may anger issues despite me doing my best to be a enough for him :)
"Your energy is so infectious! You're my fucking superhero" a colleague whom I've met the first time that night whilst I was randomly enjoying myself on the dance floor.
Ang babaw but really, noong first time ko magturo sa tutorial center tapos noong tinanong ng isang tutor bakit willing yung bata sa akin magpaturo kahit bago ako (medyo choosy bata), sabi niya kasi pretty raw ako. Iba talaga pag sinabi ng bata eh hahaha!
"Mas importante itong kalendaryo (na may mukha ni Jesus), kaysa sa iyo"
Elem ako nito. Naglilinis ako ng bahay, tapos nilinis ko din yung malaking calendar (yung piniprint sa isang uri ng tela; pinagawa yun ni mama kadalasan religious stuff theme nun), pinunasan ko ng basahan na basa tapos nagkalat yung parang paint ayun nagalit nanay ko. Feeling ko naman nabigla lang siya pero tumatak talaga yun sa isip ko.
"Si (me) unang mag-aasawa sa magpipinsan."
Elem din ito. Sabi ng mga tita ko haha. Nasaktan ako kasi ang dating nito parang ang landi ko sa paningin nila kaya nasabi nila 'to. Never ako nag-jowa kahit bet ko kasi natatakot akong tama sila. Ayoko din i-prove na tama sila kaya ang nakikita kong way is to completely avoid men.
“Masaya ang buhay, mabuhay ka ng masaya”

“Pogi”
Sa palengke ba yan lods?
Sa hilera ng cellphone repair sa greenhills. Mr Universe ako doon.
Sa traysikelan sa ilalim ng LRT Tayuman
Lakas maka-boost ng self-esteem neto kapag ikaw lang tinawag na pogi ng tindera kahit marami kayong bumibili.
SANA ALL
“Out for delivery” Ibang ligaya talaga ang dulot ng mga katagang ito!

"kung hindi mo kaya gawin linisin ang mga plato, ano pa ang hindi mo kaya gawin?" I was putting off the plates because I was playing. My dad came home and saw it. I was lazy when I was younger.

Aslo, "the sooner you shut up and do it, the sooner you'll finish" I also used to complain a lot and whine when there's a lot of workload. Also my dad's saying lol.
"Ang galing mong kumain"
Pokpok ka sabi ng tambay kong ex. 🙄🙄 hence he is ex.
THE AUDACITY OF THAT EX?!?!?!??
True. Im glad i left him. Baka forever purita na ko at losyang kakatrabaho para samong dalawa.

You're a single mom, no one will take you seriously.

"Sobrang bait mo. Lahat kayang kaya kang gustuhin pero sana ako lang." "Ang bango mo. Yung amoy mo ay yung tipong kakagatin na kita." Anyway, di ko lang din makalimutan dahil these words still manage to boost my confidence 'til now.
"Natutuwa ako sayo kasi ang professional mo kausap." Sabi sa kin ng papa ng tropa ko na first time ko na-meet habang nag-iinuman kami. As someone na mababa ang self-esteem, palaging anxious, at may anti-social tendencies, this really melt my heart.
"Gusto ko talaga tong si *my name*. (Meant as a compliment lang) Ang liwanag ng paligid kasi lagi syang nakangiti". - nasa training center kami sa Laguna, on our fourth month ng paghihirap. May mga lalake kami sa battalion, di ko sila close talaga pero lagi kasi akong ngumingiti kahit mag-isa ako oftentimes (lalo na kung nakakain ako ng leeg ng manok lol). Nagulat lang ako na sinabi nun ng isa kong kabattalion. Nickname ko dun sa kanila Ms Sunshine.
"Masyadong matagal ang isang taon. Isa ka sa pinaka-solid na taong kilala ko."
“may attitude ka” salamat po na appreciate nyo ang attitude ko HAHAHAHHAAHHAHAAHHAHAHA
SLAAAAAY
"di ko naman sinabing gawin mo yan" nagkusa na nga e haha :/
"I love you, and that means everything about you." 🥺
"you're the most understanding person i've met" HUYYYYY NAMAN
"nag aaral ka pero Tanga tanga mo"
TRIGGER WARNING: "hindot ka." this was more than 5 years ago. naabutan niya akong wala sa bahay tapos ako namang batang malandi talaga, nakipagkita ako nun nang wala sa oras sa then fubu ko. hahaha. i could laugh at it now pero may kurot kapag naaalala ko. i have vague recollection of my memories from 2015-2019 pero eto yung hinding-hindi ko makakalimutang sinabi sakin ng tatay ko. yes, sa tatay ko po nanggaling yung mga salitang yan. we're all in good terms now. hehe
“ Ang galing mo “ djk
"Dapat pala hindi namin binuhos support namin ng dad mo noong nag aaral ka, useless na anak" -mom 2020.. Motivation ko para bumukod at mag cut off ng connection sa parents. Hindi ko naman ginusto na mag pandemic at mawalan ng career direction kasi fresh grad ako noon lol. It was already depressing tapos sasabihin ka pang walang kwenta
"Ganyan talaga pag option lang"
"kumain kana ba?"
"Sayawan kita lods"
"Di nakakailang mag kwento sayo kahit lalaki ka" while talking about women stuff
"Wala kang mararating sa buhay" hindi sya nakakakilig pero sinabi to ng teacher ko dati. 18 yrs later, naalala ko pa rin na parang kahapon yung oras na sinabi nya ito saken.
“I can’t think of anything wrong with you or anything I don’t like about you. You’re so chill. You’re a walking green flag” ~ from a friend 💛💛
Santa santita
"If may tao man na mapagkakatiwalaan mo sa problema mo, yung tipong makaka share ka ng walang halong judgement, si \[name ko\] yun". My friend said this to our other friend when he was hesitant to share his problem. Hindi man directly to sinabi sa akin pero I was there when she said this. Nakakagaan lang sa puso.
"Pati nga nanay nya ayaw sa kanya" recently lang yan tapos nagpplay sa utak ko.
“She gets me”
"i feel so relaxed when you're around"
"Ang swerte kong nanay sa inyong mga anak ko." Nung nagkaron na kami ng work magkakapatid, masaya kami na nasusustentuhan na namin ang parents namin. Out of good will and not out of required responsibility. We grew up poor, nangutang, kumayod, gumapang sila para samin, so kami naman para sa kanila. :)
“Pwede ka maging teacher” “You look happier when you dance”
“Ang saya ko daw kasama kase genuine daw lagi yung happiness ko at smile ko.”
Para kang ulan, ang hirap mong pigilan. Bubuhos ka kung kelan mo gusto.
"Ang galing mo na magbike" lately lang ako natuto magbike for some reason. my mom being overthinker and paranoid, lagi niyang sinasabi na wag ako magbike sa natl road or use bikes na malalaki/matataas, "di mo kaya yan" "di ka magaling". Kaya when she complimented me, iyak tawa hahahaha i feel do proud of myself
"mahal kita" simple word pero ang lakas ng impact hahahha i'm used to hearing i love you instead. it sounds so genuine
I like how you drive. Safe. (that’s what she said)
"Bagay sayo yang itsura mo ngayon" HAHAHAHA Di ko alam kung insulto o ano eh. Pero alam ko naman na sinusubukan niya akong i-compliment 😂
may sahod na, charot
After ko manganak sa panganay ko ~7 yrs ago, my kumare said “ang cute ng inaanak ko! Buti di mo kamukha no?” Parehong chats and in person. Tumagal ng 2-3 yrs to. Buntis ako now and I am really tempted to unfriend her. Puro negats na lang. I don’t feel too ugly in both of my pregnanciespero gets ko naman na di ito ung peak ko. Why bruise a preggos ego diba?
“ang galing mong sumayaw” sabi ng isang dancer. super kilig ko at na boost confidence ko
"Ayokong makipag kaibigan sayo" from a person that I didn't notice existed.
“Nam@t@y ka nalang sana” Ny ex gf said this after we broke up, and I still have a screenshot of our convo when she said that
you are already on life's lowest point, please don't go anywhere lower;
"She just does things" from someone who i imagined my future with decided to go back to his toxic manipulative ex na may anger issues despite me doing my best to be a enough for him :)
“sayo na nga lang umiikot ang mundo ko” ayun lumipat na sya sa kabilang mundo
"Your energy is so infectious! You're my fucking superhero" a colleague whom I've met the first time that night whilst I was randomly enjoying myself on the dance floor.
“Ikaw lang nakapagpalabas ng kulit side ko”
“Kahit mabuhay ako ng ilang beses at mamatay ng ilang beses, gusto pa rin kitang maging anak sa bawat buhay ko.” My mom said to me:’)
Ang babaw but really, noong first time ko magturo sa tutorial center tapos noong tinanong ng isang tutor bakit willing yung bata sa akin magpaturo kahit bago ako (medyo choosy bata), sabi niya kasi pretty raw ako. Iba talaga pag sinabi ng bata eh hahaha!
“Ang thoughtful mo naman” -someone I just met “Actually maam lahat kami gusto ka kaduty” -my juniors
"ang ganda ng music taste mo" HAHAHAHAHAHA kilig much
"Mas importante itong kalendaryo (na may mukha ni Jesus), kaysa sa iyo" Elem ako nito. Naglilinis ako ng bahay, tapos nilinis ko din yung malaking calendar (yung piniprint sa isang uri ng tela; pinagawa yun ni mama kadalasan religious stuff theme nun), pinunasan ko ng basahan na basa tapos nagkalat yung parang paint ayun nagalit nanay ko. Feeling ko naman nabigla lang siya pero tumatak talaga yun sa isip ko. "Si (me) unang mag-aasawa sa magpipinsan." Elem din ito. Sabi ng mga tita ko haha. Nasaktan ako kasi ang dating nito parang ang landi ko sa paningin nila kaya nasabi nila 'to. Never ako nag-jowa kahit bet ko kasi natatakot akong tama sila. Ayoko din i-prove na tama sila kaya ang nakikita kong way is to completely avoid men.
