as dreamers are won't to do: August 2005

here fishy, fishy...

yesterday, when i got home, here fishy, fishy [(MY FISH)from here on referred to as hff] was swimming weakly. he was floating, more or less, not really swimming. his little tank was clean, ha, clean as a whistle, in fact. my brother, the fish killer [from here on referred to as tfk] well, judging by the nickname that i have given him, well, he washed my fish's tank with DISHWASHING liquid. he always does that, but hff always recovered. last night though, i was there to witness the final attempt at life. ah, i even tried to tap him on the side with the bamboo in a stupid, but really, a v v weak attempt at CPR. sigh. alas, he would move, but in quick bursts of speed, and then a stillness. so goodbye my fish. that is it. no more fishies for me.

thanks.

it is seldom that one finds a good friend. and even more seldom that you get to keep them close. sometimes we find friends who, though far away, we know that like that good old book, we can pick up on any page and know just where we stand, just what is going on, and excited enough knowing what might happen next. in this case, i found a good friend. not too far, and not too near. but just right.

this is joanna's blog

and this is the poem she wrote as posted in her blog.

and i thank her once again for being my friend.

Paru-paro

Ang aking kaibigang paru-paro
Pakpak nya'y marikit
Kulay nya'y kaakit-akit
Sa kanyang taglay na kariktan
Hatid nya'y kasiyahan

Ang aking kaibigan
Lungkot ko'y pinapawi
Katabi sya sa oras na ako'y sawi
Problema ay nalilimutan
Pag sya'y nasilayan...

Salamat kaibigan...
Tulong mo'y hindi tatalikdan
Lumipas man ang panahon
At ikaw ay lumisan...

Kariktan mo'y mananatili
Ningning mo'y di magmamaliw

Salamat kaibigan
Salamat aking paru-paro...

oh yeah, we might have been in college, and oh yeah, we might've been bogged down with a whole lot of term papers, nasty professors, but hey lookit! we enjoyed college, and here's some proof. and oh yeah, about the blinds, well, that wasn't me. =)
