Bisrock!

Bisrock. The rising phenomenon all over Visayas and Mindanao has recently had another stage of its popularity with the album launching of the now acclaimed indie bisrocker Missing Filemon. The carrier single of the band's second album Sine Sine has caught the Cebuanos by storm.

Sine Sine

Sine-sine wala ta'y laing lingaw
Kandila luyo sa habol
Katawang binayran ug pisong kinawat
Sa gubaong pitakang lola

Anino sa mga artistang papel
Gihinganlan ta'g si Pedro'g Sabel
Silang bida ning atong istorya
Sa gugma nga wa'y katumanan

Sine, sine, sine sa bata pa
Di na unta matapos pa
Bisan paman sa pagdagan sa panahon
Lantawon mga eksena nga molabay
Tanang tawo makasakay
Saksihan ta ang pagdagan sa panahon
Panahon

Sige-sige hala'ng imong paglakaw
Ayaw'g kahadlok may kahayag
Mudan-ag sa dalang mangitngit
Lakip na ang langit daw lapad nga adlaw

Ang kinabuhi sugilanong hiwi
Kalipay, kasakit ug kalami
Silang bida niining salida
Sa gugma nga way katuman

A Prayer in the Desert

We had just finished our pictionary sessions for that day when Manang startled us with a shocking news. Immanuel, or Iman as what we usually call him, the only nephew we have, was rushed to the hospital earlier that day. We were kind of late for the news as my eldest sister, Grace, only left an offline message to my other sister's (Nanette) yahoo account.  It was not really a cause of alarm for me at first as I knew that Ate is some kind of paranoid sometimes. She worries a lot and I thought that she overestimated the gravity of the situation.  Manang decided to call Ate though it was already around 4am Philippine time. I was only listening, something that I usually do as I'm not good in communicating affection to family members, or to anyone if I may say (but it doesn't mean that I don't care. I do, I really do care.) She first told us about the situation, that Iman was suffering from a disease worse than pneumonia, that his lungs were dirty, and that air could...

Discoveries

Imagine this kind of a scenario. There is a group of people that you completely trust with your life. You grew up with them, fellowship with them all of your life, and treated them as the best of your best friends. One of them, is extra special. You have a romantic connection with him and you trusted him completely without hesitation. And then you'll find out that this special person that you loved so dearly betrayed you. Not just once but many times. And his friends, the same group of people that you trusted, tolerated the actions of that special person and even joined him with his activities. All of them appeared to be harmless in front of you but they are totally different people when you turn your back. Huh, it's such a heavy feeling. Everything sank into me last Friday and I couldn't understand why I was able to fit the puzzle pieces together just last Friday. The news was actually not new to me but still I was surprised with everything that I found out. I fel...

Pray for a Partner!

I was surprised by the question that my sister threw at me one time, “Do you now have a boyfriend?” Caught off guard, I honestly said, “None.” It was true anyway. I don’t have a boyfriend now. But by the look of her face I could sense that she didn’t believe me maybe because I am so wasteful when it comes to cellphone credits and because I go out almost every night. It was obvious to her that I am seeing a guy. But I told her that the guy I’m seeing is not my boyfriend. He’s just a summer fling. Hehehe… and I don’t have plans of taking it to the next level with him (or who knows?! Ngek!). My sister continued to talk about my love life and as usual, I just kept quiet. It was always like that, I just listen to everything she says simply because I just don’t want to say anything. She was persuading me to spit out my affairs with the guy that I’m seeing but I told her that there is just nothing to spit out because nothing is going on between us in the first place. We’re just going out...
