UTANG NA LOOB
(Debt of Gratitude)

Bakit kaya nauso ang UTANG NA LOOB sa mga Pilipino noh?
Naiinis ako dito..
Dapat nga matuwa pa ako diba (lalo na kasi saakin may utang)..
Pero ndi..!!
Ginagawa ng isang tao ang isang bagay sayo dahil dito?
Nakakatuwa ba yun?
HINDI.

(na-mention nya kasi na may play dati sa CCP tapos di xa pumunta kasi malayo)
Me: Paano kaya kung yung play namin sa CCP kaya ginagawa, eh di ndi ka na pumunta?
Him: Pupunta! May utang na loob ako sayo eh.

Fucker..!!
Diba nakakainis yung ganun?
Shit..!!
Ginagawa mo yung isang bagay not because gusto mo talaga but dahil sa utang na loob?
grrr..

HInatid ko siya sa sakayan..
Him: Hanggang dito na lang. Malayo pa lalakarin mo pabalik. Salamat nalang.
Me: Ano ka ba? Konti lang yan noh? Parang AB to España lang to.
Him: Hindi sige na. Tignan mo may mga nagiinuman pa dito, baka maano ka pa pagbalik mo.
Me: He! Tsaka hayaan mo na, mauubos na naman yung utang diba? Konti na lang.
Him: Hindi naman kasi literal na nauubos yun noh. Hindi yun mauubos. Kaw talaga.
Me: ...

"This Must Be LAAAAB!"

Last night, March 26, 2006, was the night for Artistang Artlet's 25th Anniversary Production.. It was held for the first time outside of UST (where our plays were not allowed to be shown).. PETA Theater Center was the chosen venue for this production.. Though the audience we expected were more than who came, still it was a success.. The almost 2 month preparation of each individual both members and alumi paid off.. I'm proud to be part of Artistang Artlets, I'm proud to have been part of this Anniversary Production.. Though I have experienced a lot of problem regarding this production, I still am proud to say, "I did it!"..

The following are the synopsis of the ORIGINAL PLAYS done by AA:

Brokeback Fever

My girlfriends and I watched Brokeback Mountain last Thursday at Gateway Mall in Cubao..
We were like 2 mins late..
I dunno if the scene I saw was the start of the movie..
Still, I didn't mind it..

Why did I watch Brokeback?
1st because of the publicity of the movie..
2nd because I'm gay..
3rd because I have a crush on Jake..

I was really touched by the movie..
Some scenes really somehow happened to me..
It also made me realize about what has been happening in my life..
But I didn't cry while watching it..

One thing not evident in the movie though is their love for each other..
I don't know if it is implied that they were in love..
All I know is they like to spend time together in the mountains to fuck..
Maybe I'm wrong..

MY FAVORITE SCENE IN THE MOVIE..

Jack Twist: Tell you what, we coulda had a good life together! Fuckin' real good life! Had us a place of our own. But you didn't want it, Ennis! So what we got now is Brokeback Mountain! Everything's built on that! That's all we got, boy, fuckin' all. So I hope you know that, even if you don't never know the rest! You count the damn few times we have been together in nearly twenty years and you measure the short fucking leash you keep me on - and then you ask me about Mexico and tell me you'll kill me for needing somethin' I don't hardly never get. You have no idea how bad it gets! I'm not you... I can't make it on a coupla high-altitude fucks once or twice a year! You are too much for me Ennis, you sonofawhoreson bitch! I wish I knew how to quit you.

Ennis del Mar: [crying] Well, why don't you? Why don't you just let me be? It's because of you that I'm like this! I ain't got nothing... I ain't nowhere... Get the fuck off me! I can't stand being like this no more, Jack.
