Don’t Give Up On Love
Last time I was in Cebu, I had my fortune told. Madam Luz told me that while I’m very lucky with career and finances and that I would get a lot of opportunities, my love life would be virtually nonexistent.
“Sa 2008 o 2009 ka pa ma-iinlove ulit,” predicted the Madam.
Ouch. Well, my eyes began to flash peso signs however as she moved on to say my ambition is well on its way and that I’ll get a lot of breaks this year. I guess dapat lang na swerte ako this year since it’s the year of my breathren, the Pig.
But of course, the fortune teller wasn’t done yet as she added that apparently, I will be hooking up with a foreigner. When I went, “Uwhaaaat???” she hastily ate her words and said, “Pwedeng Fil-Am din pala.”
Now I have no idea what my love life will be three weeks from now much more that far off into the future. My two weeks of dating abstinence was broken when I went out for coffee with Mr. NY yesterday. While I enjoyed the food very much, I felt as though love has eluded me once more. There with me was a perfectly nice guy but I felt nothing. And that absence of feeling is as lonely as hell.
Looks like I’m better off pursuing my no dating advocacy.
My friend Jay who’s been kind enough to listen to my complaints about love ym’d me about a song he heard while attending a concert in their place. He said it’s perfect for me even as he ordered me to download it off Limewire ASAP and get the lyrics. I listened to Sanctus Real’s “Don’t Give Up” song and I loved it. The beat’s perfect, its inspiring and the music is the type that moves you. So yeah, I may be on the verge of pulling the plug out on the whole concept of love but after all this… maybe I can wait. My dating abstinence thing is ongoing anyway. And I did strike a deal with my uber kawaii single and super nice bestfriend (shameless plugging for PLU’s out there) Gus to keep each other from doing stupid single things like 1. Have a kissing friend and 2. settle or contract a pseudo boyfriend. So yeah, I’m not completely giving up on love yet but I am so not going to look for it… if it finds me, well, good for me then. Here’s the lyrics of the song. Read the rest of this entry »
