Wacky Weekend

Last Saturday, I made myself a mall trip in SM Dasma. It was 10AM and few shoppers were hopping inside the mall actually. I got to walk around first if there was something new items but unfortunately few were on REAL sale but others are just Valentine sale "flowers, chocolates, red clothes, perfumes, etc". For a start, I went to Quantum Entertainment to have shots at the Videoke: yep, you heard it right! Here's the list of songs:

- Beauty and Madness - Fra Lippo Lippi
- Can You Feel The Love Tonight - Elton John
- Broken Vow - Josh Groban
- Say That You Love Me - Martin Nievera
- Hold On - Side A
- Without You - After Image


Whooo! I was in fire in that Videoke room in getting the high pitch but that stupid mic stuttered a lot: it had random loose connection actually. Argh! Score? Naaaah! The scoring system was strict enough. Can you believe I got 99 (average) in all songs? Hah!

After that, I watched movie "Let The Love Begin" and theatre was full "it was second screen". It was a nice movie but the viewers were screaming a lot during kissing scenes and others were yelling "I love you, Richard!!!!!! AAAAHHH!!!!" while they were waving and jumping hoping that his idol would recognize them. Wow! These girls are totally extreme!" I tend to see their attentaion than to see the film: anyway the film was predictable anyway. As I left the theatre, I saw a very LONG cue waiting to watch this film: totally this film would be a blockbuster I may say.

I can smell the sweet air of Valentines and the people "especially teens" were getting noisy and roaming freely inside the mall in the afternoon. Even in food court and fastfood chains, I saw plenty of couples were dating and also some barkadas were enjoying chatting and teasing each other. Some were busy in buying Valentine gifts for their "special" ones (or might be usual ones). While the rest (including me) were just enjoying themselves and were feeling that this Valentines would be exciting and wonderful it should be. For me, well it is wonderful to feel the love in our lives but what my real love is: it is a long-term commitment rather than a short-term feeling. I couldn't define what love is in technical terms but I can relate it to many things: such as...

  • love is patient, love is kind.... {still common but REALLY it's true!}
  • love and happiness grows stronger through time {deep enough? try this logic: life = time}
  • love yourself before you love others {love is acceptance: to you and to others}
  • you can experience love by letting others go: they would come to you eventually

ok, ok, enough for this part. it is somewhat transcendental and it may be different on other's point of view. But for me, I'm happy to love my friends just as I love my God, my parents and my brother: with that this love could give meaning in my life. hehehehehehehe.... Thank you and I hope you would feel the same way too.
