The Five Fast Facts Tag... Love, Live, Laugh, Let Go and Learn.

Ten Years Ago: My Sweet (or should I say Not-So-Sweet) Sixteen. It was the first time I found out my heart's capacity to love. And the trigger, called Vincent. We met at Giraffe. A popular hang-out that catered to both sexuality (gay and straight). Then situated in 6750 Ayala, it had a variety of people, from the young club goer to the oldies that needed a quick lay. It was here dancing to the tune of "I'm Honry all night long..." and "If you could read my mind..." when I fell madly in-love. Next thing I knew, we were holding hands, slow-dancing to the the club beat. It was also this year that I found out that the wonders of love and being in a relationship, no matter how grand, SUCKED big time when it was time to break up. Not to mention, it caused me temporary insanity. I vowed never again. Or at least not until the next virus comes along. Exactly a month later, TA-DA!


Five Years Ago: 21. The guys' official debut. This was when a boy turned into a 'man.' Or in my case, HURRAAHH to the gay guy within. This was the year I got into a life-changing accident. I was robbed and stabbed along the streets of P. Tuazon in Cubao. Long-story. For more than a month, I could not even go out of the house. I was too scared to even see other people apart from my own family. And even with them, I was shaky. It was a tough year and it took me months to recover from this ordeal. This was also the year my 2 year partner and I broke up when I caught him cheating. In a nutshell, a year I'm willing to forget.


One Year Ago: Wiley. 'Truly-madly-deeply', insanely involved. Love-life, turned kaput in a month. Career on the other hand was going pretty well. Traveling a whole lot and was promised a promotion. And with this I learned a lot. I learned to accept things as they are and not try and change things or people. As they say, only seasons change NOT people. You simply close your eyes and hope that tomorrow the sun will shine a little brighter.


One month ago: I was in Malaysia. I met 43 and 23. I'm still single now, so I'll let you do the math. :) Also bought a new toy: my Nikon d60. 1000 over pictures in a week. A good buy for me. It sparked my long-sleeping passion for photography.
