i've just realized

Whenever I google my name, this blog is one of the top searches. FTW! Ergo, I shall mention my name here more and refer to myself in the third person for more erm, net visibilty.

Eg: Nicai is so pretty and so cute and oh she's a twisted bitch but only when you don't feed her well.

Haha! Anyway, I just came back from UP's lantern parade and it's my first time watching the entire thing. When I was a freshie, the parade was cancelled due to the whole TOFI issue and BOR meet. Last year, I was able to watch and take some pictures but I wasn't able to finish the whole thing. This year, we were at Engg then at Quezon Hall and we were seated in front of the hosts, which was one of the best seats in the house - er, university.

So many friends and acquiantances participated in the parade.

Nicai (haha)

Some of them were displaying their works and mini-lanterns, some of them were in floats, some of them were waving banners and some were shouting their hearts out to profess their beliefs. At that moment, I felt genuinely jealous of them. I guess I realized how much they've achived and grown. And where does that leave me? I'm still sitting in the sidelines, idly watching.

I swear I'll join the lantern parade next year. I just wish my college wins again. Haha

A normal guy would... Edward Cullen would... Gelo would...

There's this thing going around the net where Edward is being compared to "normal guys", your average Joes or your boyfriends and - well, the whole point of the post is to bash "normal guys" and exalt Edward as if he's manna from the heavens to the desert called lovelessdom.

See copy of this meme here.

I felt so insulted. Not all boyfriends or guys are what this writer said. My Gelo certainly isn't. And, as a tribute to my Gelo, I revised the meme.

I entitle this, Gelo would:

A normal guy would say: “I love you, baby!”
Edward Cullen would say: “You are my life now”

Gelo would say “I love you” and wouldn’t say you were his life and you agree because you would want him to have a life besides being with you… but every time you do meet up, regardless of whether he says I love you or not, you would feel that he does.

A normal guy would say: “I think I'm falling for you”
Edward Cullen would say: “The Lion fell in Love with the Lamb”

Gelo would say “I know I’m not supposed to but can’t help it,” and you would be left wondering what that means and after months of adventures and misadventures together, stories waay better than films or telenovelas, he would say that he loves you and he is sure of it and you fight for your love together.

A normal guy would say: “You hair looks like a haystack ….go brush it!”
Edward Cullen would say: "Your hair looks like haystack…but I like it”

Gelo wouldn’t say your hair looks like a haystack. He would say it looks like a haystack run over by a tractor but he loves you anyway and he loves every bit of you. Then again, he won’t say this often because most of the time, he would say your hair looks amazing.

A normal guy would pick a random song from a random artist and dedicate it to you.

Edward Cullen would sing you a song he wrote for you while playing the piano.

Gelo would buy a guitar even if he’s almost out of money, learn the songs you like and sing them to you. Though yes, he does dedicate a song for you every now and then on his multiply.

If you died, a normal guy would find another.
If you died, Edward would kill himself cause life without you isn’t worth living.

If you died -- well, you wouldn’t. Gelo would prevent it from happening. He would say his life has never been the same again when he met you and that you two still have to take over the world so you have to live.

As you leave their house a normal guy would say: “Bye. See ya!”
As you leave their house, Edward Cullen would say: “Come back to me love”
As you leave their house, Gelo would accompany you home. You would talk on the way back, you would lean on his shoulder, he would kiss you just because, hold your hand and squeeze it tight, kiss you again, say he loves you, take care and text him if you get home when you part as you board on the last jeep home. And when you get home, you still talk on ym as if you didn’t spend the day together and tell each other you miss the other already.

As you come back to their house, a normal guy would be watching TV and wouldn’t even notice.
As you come back to their house, Edward Cullen would be welcoming you by playing the piano with a song just for you.

As you come back to their house, Gelo would be sleeping and you would… >:)

A normal guy would wait for you to make him breakfast.
Edward Cullen would make you breakfast everyday.

You and Gelo don’t have breakfast. You wake up at noon or past noon, you’d say and insist you won’t eat because you’re getting fat, Gelo would tease you that you are, you would pretend to be hurt and mad for a while and he would take back what he said and tell you that you just need toning that’s all, something regular exercise can do, then make peace, hug you, kiss you and tell you you’re beautiful and that he likes your figure anyway.

While you were both out for dinner, a normal guy wouldn’t keep his eyes off the sexy waitress.
Edward Cullen wouldn’t even notice the waitress was a female.

You and Gelo would be cussing at the service and the meager food the waitress would bring you. You would discuss later on the social realities that is connected to the fast food business.

A normal guy while driving would keep one hand on the wheel and one hand on the radio.
Edward Cullen while driving would keep one hand on the wheel and the other attached to yours.

Gelo learned how to drive overnight! You both would be talents for a friend’s film and there would be a driving scene and Gelo doesn’t really know how to drive and your friend would teach him how and give him a few instructions and being the fast learner that he is, he managed to pull it off , drive around your friend’s village while acting his part and not even scratch the car! GELO FTW!

While far apart in different places, a normal guy would say: “I miss you”
While far apart in different places, Edward Cullen would say: “It’s like you've taken half myself with you”

While far apart in different places, you would tell Gelo how much you miss him. Gelo would immediately go to where you are, even if it’s midnight.

A normal guy wouldn’t care or notice if you had nightmares.
Edward Cullen would sing until your nightmares went away.

Gelo would hug you, kiss you, assure it’s just a nightmare and later on you would analyze what your dream means and you both would plunge into another philosophical discussion.

A normal guy does it with everyone.
Edward Cullen only does it with one.

Gelo wouldn’t pressure you to do it. He would say there’s so much more to a relationship than that.

A normal guy buys you flowers and chocolates.
Edward Cullen buys you a car.

With Gelo, you wouldn’t ask for flowers, chocolates or cars. You are simply contented that he is who he is and he do what he does for you. You love him. Just because.
