interview

subjected myself to be interviewed by my carlo. here's a rundown of the questions as well as my answers:

What is the sweetest thing your significant other's done for you?
Tough question, but out of the many things my baby has done for me, the sweetest thing (by far) would be the fact that he loves me for me - the good, the bad and the ugly. And it doesn't get any better than that.

If you were to recommend to me a book, what would it be?
There's this book written by a Jesuit priest (can't remember the title) but it's about leadership and how to make the most of it. i know how you love reading those kinds of books. :)

If you had a chance to meet a historical figure for coffee, who would it be?
My great grandfather, Manuel A. Roxas. I want to know him (other than what the textbooks publish and relatives fondly remember)

What makes the relationship you're in special?
What makes us special is knowing how we can't get enough of each other, how we make each other laugh, how we constantly support each other, and how we take on different roles, other than being each other's significant other. walang iwanan diba?

What's the last song you can't get off your mind?
HYP's Torpe - it brings back the good old pseudo-ligaw days :p

edit: 11:40 am
for you:
1. how do you see life now?
2. what's the greatest advice you've ever gotten/given?
3. if you were to be reincarnated as an animal, what would you be? why?
4. name one best memory (be it childhood, high school, present, etc.)
5. what's the one thing you most want to do/ want right now?

queso

Like the ticking of the clock
Two hearts beat as one
But I'll never understand the way it's done
(Love Moves) in Mysterious Ways - Julia Fordham


Truth be told, I used to find this song very mushy and highly unlikely to happen to anyone.

Me, around 2000, upon hearing the song: Queso overdrive - help me not to gag.

Then again, I used to be bitter and unusually negative. :)

I remember how the priest stressed during his homily that in order to change someone, you have to love them wholly and unconditionally. He further elaborated: Love is not a fleeting emotion, it is a decision that one makes with an open mind and heart. Society just perceives it as something temporary and fickle. It's amazing how one simple thing, or a person can change you just like that.

I couldn't figure that one out, so, naturally I scoffed at such concept. But somehow, some way, I became a believer (and also a queso person in the process!).

I believe that I'm a better person. Thank you for loving me.
