Random: On old and new friends.
I haven't done a real blog in quite a while, so while our supposed
make-up class doesn't seem to be happening right now, I might as well
use the spare time here in the computer lab.
As usual, because I don't blog often, I still have my trusty notebook
with me for random thoughts on the go, so this entry will be another
potpourri of randomness.
Last week, while I was online on Facebook, Nicco messaged me out of the
blue during the wee hours of morning, saying that he saw the video of Our Town (our Beginning Acting workshop recital) again. He said that when he saw
that video, it reminded him of how things were for him
before--optimistic and passionate in the craft. After a little chat, I
also wished that there were some things, thoughts and emotions in our
life that we could also bring back as easy as sense memory.
For some funny reason, my chat with Nicco that night reminded me of that last episode of 'Kada Kwento.
Hahaha, malamang, because he's part of the series. Anyway, I had told
him that I liked the "Session" episode because it talked of having new
friends while keeping your oldest and closest friends.
Quoting the voice-over of the lead character: Kahit
gaano ka pa kilala ng mga pinakamatalik mong kaibigan, minsan may mga
darating pa na ibang tao na magpapakita sa iyo na ang bago tungkol sa
sarili mo. Maaaring sila ang magpapakita sa iyo kung saan ka magaling,
at kung gaano ka kagaling. Pero sila din ang magsasabi sa iyo na may
mga bagay ka pa na pwede mong ayusin. Dahil hindi pa sila nakakahon sa
mga inaakala mong limitasyon mo. Dahil sa totoo lang, yan ang rason
kung bakit tayo nakikipagkaibigan. At kahit matatalik mong kaibigan ang
mga nakakakilala kung sino ka ngayon, minsan ang bago mong kaibigan ang
magpapakita sa iyo kung anong kaya mong maging.
Something like that.
Tama nga naman. You always learn a lot of different stuff from the opinions of both old and new friends.
I still have a bunch more to blog about but the thoughts suddenly flew
out the window because of a long talk I had with MA here in the lab
just now, hahaha. I'll blog again later tonight.
