Bad Things Happen~Wag Pasaway~

The car flew and tumbled, while the screams coming from it halted as it stopped.. knocked over.

My cousin met an accident last night around 1 am while driving the colossal fire truck of their station (he’s been a fire volunteer ever since man discovered fire ~that long). Their team was responding to a fire in Cubao QC. The Collision sent the intersecting vehicle whose body is similar to the old Tamaraw FX type (I forgot the name of the exact model), soaring and doing a 360 tumble twice. In it were 5 people, the driver being an old man of around 70 yrs old and the youngest passenger being only 12. The vehicle attempted to race past in between the two fire trucks but actually got smashed by the second truck (the one my cousin was driving). Hearing the story is already enough for me to picture out the brutal scene that took place. It was, as admitted by both sides… an unfortunate accident. The injured parties are still at the hospital and my cousin along with his team hasn’t slept a wink. They were at the hospital all night and just came home to get some things and they are now back at the hospital again.

Anak ng Tinae! (ipot) Please be mindful when you are driving, especially when you have passengers with you. Do not disregard siren alarms (although minsan abuso ang ibang may wang-wang, just check first and judge on the visuals before you opt to disregard if ever) and not be oblivious to a social situation. Do not race with threatening vehicles just to save a few minutes of time, instead save yourself a few more minutes of life. There is no winner in circumstances like this, both parties are burdened except kung halang ang kaluluwa mo and Ulul ka lang talaga. There goes the Ulol again. Sorry.

When I was younger I didn’t care much for accidents. They were only pictures of tragic adventures in my mind, and a predicament that can happen to anybody except to me or to people I know. It was all too unreal to take seriously but as life goes by ,these once unfamiliar misfortunes will come knocking at your fate, and you start realizing that bad things do happen and it can happen to you. And while we can believe that all things are destined and even argue that there is no such thing as an accident in this world, it wouldn’t hurt to take a little caution every now and then, and value the worth you give to your life.

How To Say Ulol When In The Car

Kanta lang ako ng kanta, singer ba ako? Ahahaha. Dati wala akong paki basta gusto ko kumanta, I’ll sing right then and there. Kawawa naman ang mga ears ng aking listeners. ;p ahaha Ngayon shy na ako, I do my concerts only when Im in the car. (Hindi pwede sa banyo, maririning ka ng kapitbahay.) Siguro na-realize ko na, wala naman akong talent. Marunong lang. hehehe :P Kahit pag pinapainit ko lang yung makina, andun lang ako sa loob, Hindi ko na binubuksan yung ilaw, para hindi ako makita sa loob. Nakaupo lang sa loob, kumakanta parang tanga. =p (im not proud of it, you’ll have to thank boredom for making me share it now) Natatangi ang mga simpleng trip ko sa buhay. PS: ah yun lang nga pala ang alam ko, run the engine on. Pero hindi aandar ;p ahahaha. Ignorance is bliss (in some cases). The car’s alarm will go off a few times bago ko ma stable yung key in it and finally after some twists and turns, okay na. I guess driving is a little scary for me just as swimming have always been (subjectively). Pakiramdam ko bawat 5yards may mabubundol ako at mamatay ang malas na taong iyon. Kakanta na lang ako at mambibingi for now. Anu na namang Kaululan toh?

Speaking of Ulol,I still can’t help myself as I watch people na nakikipag-tinikling sa pagtawid sa kalye (which I am also guilty of- kala niyo kayo lang ha), kaya ayan tuloy na e-exagg ang reactions ko “batang ulul NOooooHHHhh”, “Ulul na Nanay talaga toh” “Asong Ulul, ayaw pa talaga tumabi” “Mamang Ulul” I mean everybody’s Ulol. ;p Inulul ko na silang lahat, in my panic. Im sorry. ;p for the things I say to the world. Concerned citizen lang ako. And they don’t really hear me because I don’t pull the windows down in doing so naman, hindi pa naman ako nau-ulol to do that.

(3) Things could happen to me if I do so however:

a.) Sasamaan ako ng tingin at mumurahin

b.) Sasabunutan, Duduraan at who knows baka mag pabundol pa sila

c.) Uululin din (and I could even get killed, panu kung ulul nga talaga)

(3) Reasons why I cant help but do it:

1.) The hormones did it.

2.) O.A ako

3.) Concern lang I don’t know why it comes out like that though (until it does) ;p

So For your safety:

1.) Never pull the windows down and then say ulol. (make sure they don’t hear you) hahaha =p

2.) Only say ulol when the person is really at a very critical position with the car

3.) Always include their status or role in the society for example: asong kalye = asong kalyeng Ulul, Bus = Ulul na Bus, Vendor = Tinderong Ulul. ( we still have to give acknowledgments) ;p may good manners pa rin ha… if you want pwede mo na rin sabihin Mr Ulul, Ms. Ulul. but dont make the mistake of saying it ala Kanto Girl. But always with a little Cherie Gil to your voice. ( Sorry Cherie Gil. I know you have more class than this... ;) )

But If I were you, I won’t listen to me. Obviously because everything I’ve said was nonsense. I probably don’t know what I’m saying, until late when im offline, and it registers in my mind, word per word and pagsisihan ko why why why.

And patience is a virtue. I am not done with that lesson. =p bear with me. ;p

Hidden Thoughts

The years will only seem like days for familiarities that has never learned to forget but only accustomed themselves to the present. The upcoming seems merely the object of the past. The steps are more cautious, the words carefully spoken. No there is no hole to patch because you were ever so careful this time and yet it is there. A missing piece, only it is not missing. It has no place in the puzzle of today. But it sits there, where you can only know it is there but never see for sure. You have kept it aging but timeless. And timeless will end where destiny steps in. Until then the wheel of fate will always be unknown. In good faith, let warm wishes envelope life wherever it is mailed to.
