My Favorite Place in South Korea

“Don't you think it's better to be extremely happy for a short while, even if you lose it, than to be just okay for your whole life?”

― Audrey Niffenegger, The Time Traveler's Wife

Aside from Girls Generation, there was nothing about South Korea that I liked. I am not fond of watching Korean dramas and I think Koreans in the Philippines are rude, loud, and annoying. I actually can't remember the reason why I agreed to book a flight to Incheon last June, probably just out of pure fandom of Chyng Reyes. 

Then a month after, a fateful day came and I met the most amazing guy in El Nido who happened to be Korean. I fell in love with him but he eventually broke my heart so it just made things worst between me and the land of BB creams.

Six Degrees of Separation

"It's scary how accurate this song is."

You've read the books,

You've watched the shows,

What's the best way no one knows, yeah,

Meditate, get hypnotized.

Anything to take from your mind.

But it won't go, ohhhh ohhh

You're doing all these things out of desperation,

Ohhh ohhh,

You're going through six degrees of separation.

You hit the drink, you take a toke

Watch the past go up in smoke.

Fake a smile, yeah, lie and say that,

You're better now than ever, and your life's okay

When it's not. No.

You're doing all these things out of desperation,

Ohhh ohhh,

You're going through six degrees of separation.

First, you think the worst is a broken heart

What's gonna kill you is the second part

And the third, Is when your world splits down the middle

And fourth, you're gonna think that you fixed yourself

Fifth, you see them out with someone else

And the sixth, is when you admit that you may have fucked up a little

(Oh no there ain't no help, it's every man for himself)

(No no there ain't no help, it's every man for himself)

You tell your friends, yeah, strangers too,

Anyone who'll throw an arm around you, yeah

Tarot cards

Gems and stones,

Believing all that shit is gonna heal your soul.

Well it's not, no, wohhhh

You're only doing things out of desperation,

Ohhh ohhh,

You're goin' through six degrees of separation.

First, you think the worst is a broken heart

What's gonna kill you is the second part

And the third, Is when your world splits down the middle

And fourth, you're gonna think that you fixed yourself

Fifth, you see them out with someone else

And the sixth, is when you admit that you may have fucked up a little

No there's no starting over,

Without finding closure, you'd take them back,

No hesitation,

That's when you know you've reached the sixth degree of separation

No there's no starting over,

Without finding closure, you'd take them back,

No hesitation,

That's when you know you've reached the sixth degree of separation

First, you think the worst is a broken heart

What's gonna kill you is the second part

And the third, Is when your world splits down the middle

And fourth, you're gonna think that you fixed yourself

Fifth, you see them out with someone else

And the sixth, is when you admit that you may have fucked up a little

Masilungan

Ano pa ba ang silbi ng bawat umaga
Kung sa bawat paggising ay wala ka
Kahit sulyap lang sa iyo ay hindi natatamasa
Siguro ito na nga, tapos na.

Hindi ko na ipipilit kung ito talaga ang nakatakda
Kahit hindi naman talaga ako naniniwala sa tadhana
Kung ito ang makabubuti, hahayaan ko na nga
Na magwakas itong ating pagiibigan na akala nati'y di magsasawa

Pagkat iba na ako, iba ka na, iba na ang tayo
Mga pagkakaibang pareho nating hindi gusto
Marahil hindi natin alam kung paano tayo humantong sa ganito
Ngunit kailangan nating tanggapin ang pareho nating alam, kailangan na nating wakasan ito.      

WASAK na WASAK

Wasak talaga..
