HANGGANG NGAYON...

nepparaiso — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 11:43:08 +0300

Isang magandang magandang at tanghaliang araw sa inyong lahat! Narito muli ang isang awit ng pag-ibig na para sa iba ay nababalikan ang alaala ng masaya at romantic na eksena at para sa iba ang awit na ito ay nagpapaalala lamang ng sakit ng damdamin during the time na iniwan ng kanyang mahal...

Anyways, here's the synopsis of the story with Richard Gomez and Regine Velasquez:
Ryan is a bachelor who is not hesitant of commitment. In fact, each time he engages in a relationship, he dreams of settling down. But each time he feels that he has found the perfect partner, he finds someone better. Katherine, meanwhile is a boring post office worker, who feels unloved and unwanted by the people around her. Since her parents are separated with families of their own, the only family she has are the owners of the dormitory. One fateful night, their paths crossed which resulted to a wonderful relationship. But when Katherine learns from her dorm mate that her boyfriend left her in spite of giving everything to him, Katherine feared for herself. Will Ryan be able to prove that his love for Katherine is true and that she will not have the same destiny as her dorm mates'?

o sya at tayo ng kumanta:

HANGGANG NGAYON by Ogie and Regine

Bakit di magawang limutin ka
Bawat sandali'y ika'y naaalala
Tangi kong dasal sa Maykapal
Makapiling kang muli.

Bakit dika maalis sa isip ko
Ikaw ang laging laman nitong puso ko
Kahit pilitin kong damdamin magbago
Ikaw pa rin ang hinahanap ko

Refrain:

Hanggang ngayon,
Ikaw pa rin ang iniibig ko
Ikaw pa rin ang natatanging pangarap ko
Ikaw lamang
Hanggang ngayon

Ikaw lang ang tunay na minamahal
Ikaw lang hinihintay
ko ng kaytagal.

Ikaw ang ligaya,
Ang buhay at pag-asa
Ikaw lang, wala ng iba
kaya't

(Repeat Refrain)

Dapat ba nating pagbigyan
Ang ating mga puso muli pang buksan
At ibibigay lahat ang pag-ibig na tapat.
Sa iyo.
Sa iyo.

Hanggang ngayon,
Ikaw pa rin ang iniibig ko
Ikaw pa rin ang natatanging pangarap ko
Hindi ko na kayang mag-isa
Ikaw lamang,
Ikaw lamang,
Ikaw lamang,
ikaw lamang,
Hanggang ngayon.

Tinawag ni Inay si Boy, ang batang ngo-ngo. "Boy, magpunta ka sa tindahan ni Aling Petra at bumili ka ng isang latang Pork & Beans."

"Omo, inay," ang sagot ni Boy.

Pagdating ni Boy sa tindahan ay binati niya ang tindera,

"Aning Metra,ngamuta na mo ngayo? (Kamusta na po kayo?)"

"Mabuti naman," ang sagot ni Petra, "ano ang kailangan mo Boy?"

"Mangmilan nga mo ng inang lata ng Mo e Meen?" ang tanong ni Boy.

"Ano kamo, Boy? sabi ni Petra.

"Isa mong Mo e Meen," ang ulit ni Boy.

"Paki-ulit nga Boy at hindi kita maintindihan."

"Mo e Meen, Mo e Meen, nyung nata lata."

"Hindi talaga kita maintindihan. Mabuti pa kaya ay i-spell mo na lang sa akin."

"O ninge. Mo e Meen. Netter Mi."

"Letter 'B'?" Ang tanong ng tindera.

"Ine! Netter Mi as in Minimines."

"Ha???"

"Mi!" Kinanta ni Boy ang alphabet, "Ey, Mi, Ni, Ni , E, Em, Nyee..En, Em, En, O, Mi"

"Ahhh, P! Letter P!" ang masiglang sagot ni Petra.

"Oo. Mi! Mo e Meen!"

"Sige ituloy mo Boy. 'P'..."

"Ngo!"

"Ano kamo?"

Kumanta ulit, "Ey, Mi, Ni, Ni , E, Em, Nyee... En, Em, En, O"

"Ahhh, titik O! P-O. Sige ituloy mo pa."

"Netter Arrng!"

"Kantahin mo na lang ulit Boy."

"Ey, Mi, Ni, Ni , E, Em, Nyee... En, Em, En, O, Mi, Ngyu, Arrng."

"Ahhh! Letter R. Malapit na. 'P-O-R'? Hindi ko pa rin makuha, Boy. Anong letter and susunod?"

"Ngey."

"Letter A?"

"Ini ho," sabay buntung-hininga si Boy. "Ngey! A, Ma, Nga (A-Ba-Ka-Da ang kinanta)! Nga!"

"Ka! Letter 'K' 'P-O-R-K' Ahhh Pork!!!"

"Oo. Mo e Meen"

"Pork and?" Ang tanong ni Petra.

"Oo!! Mo e Meen!!!"

"Pork and Meen? Ahhhh!!! Alam ko na!!! Pork and Beans!!!"

"Oo! Oo!! Mo e Meen!! Mo e Meen!!!!" ang masayang sigaw ni Boy.

"Pork and Beans pala ang kailangan mo!!!"

"Oo. Mo e Meen! Menon ngayo? (Meron kayo?)

"Ay, naku wala!"

Ngyeheheheh.

Is MARRIAGE really important at all ?

tatess — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 11:00:17 +0300

Or shall we just stay out of it?

Why do people marry?Is it because of love or companionship ? What difference does it make if we just live together,have children without a piece of paper binding you together.
Let's hear the opinion of married and unmarried people out there regarding the importance and unimportance of marriage..

KUNG MAWAWALA KA...

nepparaiso — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 07:56:07 +0300

Alehoy! alehoy! isang magandang umaga sa inyong lahat at eto na naman tayo sa kinapapanabikan at pinakahihintay na drama ng Awit, Musika at Pag-ibig...

Ano ba kayang magandang portion ang dapat na itawag natin dito? I would suggest na gawing regular ang portion na ito as others can relate and remember those happy? and saddest? times during their relationship and most of them are really in their what we called "...and they lived happily ever after." hihihi

Before going to office, dala ang mp3 and as I listening to it naka relate ako sa awiting ito...

KUNG MAWAWALA KA by Ogie Alcasid
http://www.youtube.c...

kung mawawala ka sa piling ko
hindi ito matatanggap ng puso ko
at bawat pangarap ay biglang maglalaho
mawawalang saysay ang mabuhay sa mundo

kung masamang panaginip lamang to
sana ako ay gisingin mo
at sa aking paggising akoy iyong yakapin
at sabihin mong akoy mahal mo rin

kung mawawala ka
hindi ko makakayang
harapin ang bukas ng nagiisa
kung akoy iiwan mo paano na tayo
sayang ang pangako sa isat isa
kung mawawala ka

O SYA MAG COMMENTS NA ABOUT YOUR PAST YOUR PRESENT AND THE FUTURE HIHIHI....
