Salty Coffee

its a love story. a friend has sent it in my friendster inbox and i would like to share it to you. :)

He met her on a party. She was so outstanding, many guys chasing after her, while he so normal, nobody paid attention to him. At the end of the party, he invited her to have coffee with him, she was surprised, but due to being polite, she promised. They sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything, she felt uncomfortable, she thought, please, let me go home.... suddenly he asked the waiter. "would you please give me some salt? I'd like to put it in my coffee." Everybody stared at him, so strange! His face turned red, but still, he put the salt in his coffee and drank it. She asked him curiously; why you have this hobby? He replied: "whenI was a little boy, I was living near the sea, I like playing in the sea, I could feel the taste of the sea, just like the taste of the salty coffee. Now every time I have the salty coffee, I always think of my childhood, think of my hometown, I miss my hometown so much, I miss my parents who are still living there". While saying that tears filled his eyes. She was deeply touched. That's his true feeling, from the bottom of his heart. A man who can tell out his
homesickness, he must be a man who loves home, cares about home, has responsibility of home. Then she also started to speak, spoke about her faraway hometown, her childhood, her
family. That was a really nice talk, also a beautiful beginning of their story. They continued to date. She found that actually he was a man who meets all her demands; he had tolerance, was kind hearted, warm, careful. He was such a good person but she almost missed him! Thanks to his salty coffee! Then the story was just like every beautiful love story , the princess married to the prince, then they were living the happy life... And, every time she made coffee for him, she put some salt in the coffee e, as she knew that's the way he liked it. After 40 years, he passed away, left her a letter which said: "My dearest, please forgive me,
forgive my whole life lie. This was the only lie I said to you--- the salty coffee. Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous at that time, actually I wanted some sugar, but I said salt. It was hard for me to change so I just went ahead.I never thought that could be the start of our communication! I tried to tell you the truth many times in my life, but I was
too afraid to do that, as I have promised not to lie to you for anything.. Now I'm dying, I afraid of nothing so I tell you the truth: I don't like the salty coffee, what a strange bad taste.. But I have had the salty coffee for my whole life! Since I knew you, I never feel sorry for anything I do for you. " Having you with me is my biggest happiness for my whole life. If I can live for the
second time, still want to know you and have you for my whole life,even though I have to drink the salty coffee again". Her tears made the letter totally wet.Someday, someone asked her: what's the taste of salty coffee? It's sweet. She replied. Love is not 2 forget but 2 forgive, not 2 c but 2 understand, not 2 hear but 2 listen, not 2 let go but 2 HOLD ON !!!! Don't ever leave the one you love for the one you like, because the one you like will leave you for the one they love. Tonight your true love will realize how much they love you between 1 and 4 in the morning.

Job Hunting

since its summer, ive decided to look for a part time job. something productive. hmmm. una kong naisip ang...JOLLIBEE. ahahahaha

last monday, april 9 ako nag-apply. ang aga nga eh. 8am. pero since nasa Pilipinas tayo, it started late. mga 8:30 na ata un. ang dami naming nag-apply. kinabahan tuloy ako. to make the long story short, i passed the first screening and written exam. pero nung interview na, dun na ata ako nadali. kasi summer job nga lang ang kailangan ko. meaning, hanggang first week lang ako ng june pwedeng magtrabaho. and jollibee needs crew for 6 months. hindi na ko pwede nun kasi vet med student ako at mahirap na ang schedule ko next sem. hay. sayang! pero ok lang.

another thing, yung mga nakasabay kong mag-apply...lahat ata sila kailangan ung trabaho. samantalang ako, wala lang. para lang sa mga kapricho ko. para may pera ako pambili ng mga luho ko. nagulat pa nga ata yung manager nung nakita nila yung mga eskwelahan at course ko. haaaaaY! overqualified ata ako. ahahahahaha. JOKE!

kahapon naman, nag-apply ako sa alpo. eto related na sa course ko. tapos, may ad din kasi sa school na naghahanap sila ng mga vet students na pwedeng mag-apply. go naman kaming magkakaibigan. natanggap na yung iba naming kaibigan. tapos kami ni albino nag-apply kahapon, at ininterview kami ngayon. SANA MATANGGAP KAMI. pang-summer lang talaga siya. hehehehe. bukas ko pa malalaman kung tanggap ako. :) hay.

nakakapagod talaga. bagsak nga ako sa kama. hahaha..

Sana talaga matanggap kami.:)

Holy Week

yay. my dad called last tuesday, and was asking me to go to laguna...because our dog, inkee, is sick. i should be spending my holy week here in qc. but because our dog was sick, i had to go. so wednesday noon, i went there.

inkee was really sick. it was dehydrated and thin. sabi ng dad ko, hindi daw siya kumakain. i even brought dog food para lang sa kanya. kumain naman siya, pero sobrang konti. wala pa ngang one tsp. hindi ko alam ang gagawin ko. vet med student ako, pero wala akong magawa. sinabi ko sa dad ko dapat bigyan ng apetite stimulant si inkee. so, i read my notes sa pharma. b vitamins ang isa sa mga nakalagay. naisip ko yung tiki-tiki for kids at clusivol.

thursday noon, nung magdecide si dad na bilhin ung tiki-tiki. at nung nabili na, binigyan ko siya ng 2.5cc muna. after ilang minutes, kumain din siya. tapos uminom ng tubig. yehey!!! pero matagal pa, bago siya tumaba ulit. skin and bones na talaga siya eh. naiyak pa nga ako, kasi wala nga akong magawa. ngayon, malakas na siyang kumain ulit. THANKS TO UNITED HOME TIKI-TIKI. hehe;p

sana, tuloy-tuloy na ang paggaling ni inkee. umuwi na kasi ako ngayon sa qc eh. matagal ulit, bago ako bumalik ng laguna. isa pang hinala ko kung bakit hindi siya kumakain, is namimiss niya ang buong family. :(

----------
ano ba ang ginawa ko buong semana santa? actually wala. kumain, matulog..magtext, tumawag. at syempre minsan nagrereflect ako. sa mga nangyayari ngayon at dati. pero sa akin na lang yun. sa next entry ko na lang ishe-share sa inyo.

pinaglilinis na kasi ako ng mum ko ng kotse eh. hehehe;p

CIAO!!!

sana maging ok na si inkee.:)
