one more chance

A lot of people my age will agree that "One More Chance" was the best Pinoy film they ever saw. It's in my Itunes and I've seen the flick a million times haha. I saw the movie while going through a bad break up more than 2 years ago and it was really swak na swak. At times you'll relate to Popoy or Basha. You'll even relate to side characters of the movie like Popoy and Basha's friends in the movie because one way or another, you'll be a friend to people going through heartaches. I was reminded of this movie when a colleague was going through a break-up months ago. Here are my favorite lines in this flick.

"what if one day I want to know what is?"

"i wanna stop wondering what if.. i want to know what is..."

"i want my heart to stop breaking!"

"mahal na mahal kita at ang sakit sakit na!"

"she loved me at my worst, you had me at my best, and you chose to break my heart...."

"it's better for two people to breakup for them to grow up"

"p$%^ina naman! bakit ganyan ka katigas!"

"kung nakaya ko, kaya mo rin. naalala mo noong ako ang nandiyan? o, eh hindi ba't ikaw pa nagsabi sa akin na baka kaya tayo iniiwan ng mga taong mahal natin, kasi baka merong bagong darating na mas okay. na mas mamahalin tayo, yung taong hindi tayo sasaktan at paaasahin. yung nag-iisang tao na magtatama ng mali sa buhay natin, ng lahat ng mali sa buhay mo..."

"ako,
ako ung problema...
kasi nasasaktan ako kahit hindi naman ako dapat masaktan...
sana kaya kong tiisin ung sakit na nararamdaman ko...
kasi ako naman ung humiling nito 'di ba?
ako ung may gusto...
sana kaya kong sabihin sayo na...
masaya ko para sa'yo...
para sa inyo...
sana kaya ko...
pero hindi eh...
ang sama sama kong tao...
kasi ang totoo...
umaasa pa din akong sabihin mo...
na sana...
ako pa rin...
ako na lang...
ako nalang ulit..."

"i will love you and tell you everyday
everyday until you forget the things that hurt you...
i hate the things that make you hurt
and how i wish i could take them away
if only could be done
i do it for sure"

quoted cameron diaz

"People who put labels on themselves limit themselves. If you are a woman who's been labeled as a sex symbol, for instance -- I mean, I am not saying that's the label people would apply to me. But if you see yourself that way, inevitably you get to a point when you are no longer a sex symbol. And if you can't move past that, you're putting a limit on yourself; you're arresting your development. And that's where I think a lot of women get in trouble. I mean, I'm not 25 years old anymore, nor do I want to be. I wouldn't even want to go back to being 30. You know what I mean? That journey -- I've done it already. I don't want to do it again. It's a lot of work to get through it, and I am excited about moving forward. I think that people get caught up in getting back to some place that they already passed. Or to a place where you cannot stay."

-- Cameron Diaz, to the June issue of Vogue, on evolving as an actress and as a woman.

I really like what she said here. I can relate to it because weeks ago, I'm sort of contemplating about aging another year with all the health crisis I'm going through plus career issues etc. It made me think of a lot of "what ifs", what if I did this when I was younger, what if I pursued that.. etc. Reading this made me realize that who I am today, is because of how my past molded me. Come to think of it, I don't want to go back to my past. Struggles before were different and I am glad that all of those struggles are over. When I think of what's ahead of me, it excites me. It also makes me realize of the blessings I have now. This quote is an eye opener. I don't want to limit myself anymore of what I can and cannot do. Age is just a number. It doesn't go hand in hand with achievements. I just need to face ahead and make things happen again. I can still be a risk taker at 25:) I am happy to be 25! I am now a "silver girl":) Quarter life crisis, boo-hoo! Adios!:)

what i learned last night

What I learned last night: I am not who I am today because of my past. I am who I am because of how I feel about my future. If I keep on filing every past experiences in my view of who I am today, it will block my view of my future. So leave the past behind and clear all things that's blocking your way to see a view of infinite possibilities in the future. ~ Candice Aquino

I'm starting to jot down random realizations that keep on popping in my head. My inner voice won't stop talking. Hehe! At least she is making sense!

I The Script!:) and the lyrics...

Got some words on cardboard got your picture in my hand,
Saying if you see this girl can you tell her where I am,
Some try to hand me money they don't understand,
I'm not...broke I'm just a broken hearted man,
I know it makes no sense, but what else can I do,
How can I move on when I'm still in love with you.....

Cos if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me,
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I can be,
Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet,
And you'd see me waiting for you on the corner of the street.....

Gotta stand my ground even if it rains or snows,
If she changes her mind this is the first place she will go......

Just awwww...
