My Morning Muse: The Little Bird 🦜

With each dawn, a humble friend flutters by my window - a tiny, feathered confidante. This unexpected visitor arrived on my first day in the bustling city, setting a rhythm to my mornings that has become my sole comforting consistency.

We share no words, but in its soft chirps and watchful eyes, I find unexpected companionship. Day after day, it seems to check on me - like a guardian painted with the hues of the morning sky.

And now, the tables have turned. I find myself awaiting its arrival at first light. In its steadfast presence, I find the strength to face another day.

Is this a simple happenstance or a serendipitous encounter? I can't say. But this much is clear - it has become my anchor in this city of towering buildings and ceaseless activity, a beacon of hope amidst solitude.

Remarkable, isn't it? How a tiny creature, so blissfully unaware of the solace it provides, has become my lifeline in this daunting city.

Our quiet, unspoken bond serves as a daily testament to the power of connection, companionship, and the extraordinary impact of ordinary moments.

Here's to the little bird by my window, my steadfast friend in a sea of unfamiliar faces, the unwitting hero in my urban tale.

My Dear Love,

In case you are wondering what this whole thing is, it's basically a journal. A little something for you to read about my life here far from you. There might be some things I will miss to tell you in real time but at least with this, you can go back in time to find out.

Some of it are just things I am not ready for you to know yet.

Questions I don't have the courage to ask yet.

And my thoughts behind some of the conversations we have.

By the time you are reading this, I have already proposed to you and hopefully you said yes. Treat this as a mini engagement gift. I know how much you value memories. So, I hope you like it.

It has been a week since I left the Philippines. I miss you so much already. I'm doing fine here in Dubai as you know since I can still talk to you everyday.

Life is still slow right now. I spent this week catching up on sleep and restarting my body clock. The weather here is still somewhat cooler than I expected. Well, at home it really is cooler with the AC on most of the time. But outside temperature is still within my comfort.

I'm starting to live healthy. Good influence si Papa with his healthy lifestyle. I do light workouts in the morning, and go jogging right at twilight. I'm still trying to figure out my diet. Cutting out rice is a start. Cereals and fruits in the morning. Salads and sandwiches for my meals throughout the day. I think my body is adjusting fine as of now. Pero, medyo anxious ako. I feel like any day now or next week, I might feel the withdrawal symptoms from my years of smoking cigarettes start to kick in. Although I'm trying to ease in with quitting by vaping, I hope kayanin ko to. Remember what I told you and everyone back home that i'll quit it for good once I get here. I've been preparing to quit it mentally for months na. Kaya ko to.

We went to Abu Dhabi earlier. Visited some relatives. Then we went to meet up with Papa's oldtime friends and co workers.

I'll tell you about it tomorrow. I'm sleepy na eh.

Anyways... Sa ngayon, yun palang naman ang ganap dito. Next week, i'll start to explore.

Always, Love.

EL NUEBE

Sa kadaghang panahong nilabay, ang mga butang’ gusto wala japon nitubay.

Gapangita ug taong mupuno, sa kulang na akong pagkatao.

Naglisod kung aha magsugod, para mahan-ay samtang dili pa ugod-ugod

Taong gitakna aha na? Para higugmaon ang tawong tambok na , bulokbugo pangit pa!

Dugay na panahon ang gihulat, para ikaw akong mahimamat.

Apan tong ikaw niabot ug nailhan, ikaw adunay laing gikabuangan.

Gakos-gakos pas lain bae, wa ba mo gipang gabae,

Akong kilay ni actio’g taas, kay akong pagtoo ikaw usa sad ka mangtas.

Matud pa sa uban, ayaw pag assume , ayaw pag dahum, Arun dili kasakit imong mabatun.

Apan ang baye, patuyang sa gibati, Sa di sakto ug taong murag wati,

Wa kay choice kung kana iyang pagkatao, unsay pay angay’ng mahimo?

Dawata’g buo, kung ikaw tinuod na nakagusto.

Ngano karon pa ka niabot? Tuig ang nasayang bago paka nakab-ot.

Sukad ikaw akong naila, adlaw-adlaw ikaw na gipangita, Ug kana dili nako ika-ila.

Asa ka? Asa ko? Kinsa ka? Kinsa ko?

Sugdan ta, kay taas ng lubi ug atong edad taas pas kantidad sa Rubi.

Ikaw ug ako kalit lang misuod, sa matag adlaw, utok ikaw ang sulod.

Naglisod akong mulayo, kay karon ikaw kanunay’ng gipangamuyo.

Byernes Sabado, Panahon alang lamang kanimo.

Dughan gabuto-buto, sa gugmaang baye na ang too,imo rang gina’uto.

Mutoo najud kog Love at First Sight,

Andam mu’fight, biskan kulang akong height.

Too many questions but the answers are few.

Kadramahan sa gugmang ginganla’g NEW.

Problema dria,trials didto, Uban biskan asa muadto.

Ayaw’g give up, dikit lang , sama kapilit sa sakit na Ap-Ap.

Kitang duha mag uban ,sa kalisod ug kapit-os,

Ubanan pag, sa kapangit ug kahimos.

Lisod huna-hunaon , na ikaw mubalik sa niaging karelasyon,

Gusto kang hangyuon, nga ako dili talikdan arun dili na urumon.

Apan dili ko na buhaton, kay ako hagbay rang nagmat-ngon.

Kabalo na muhandol,aron di na mausabon ug kapandol.

Sweet kas permiro, sweet pas amoang iro.

Clingy biskan sa publiko, unta ikaw dili na muliko.

Padaun ta satong nasugdan , unta wala satoa ang mapul-an.

Ipabilin ang kahayag, Sama sa kaanyag ni Catriona Gray.

Kapila nangutana’g Assurance, apan ikaw walay deliverance.

Gusto mangayo’g label, apan ikaw dili muhatag biskan man lang papel.

Naglibog aha mulugar, biskan ako walay car.

Unsa manang imoha SOY, bakak o tinud-anay?

Palihog bungat kung unsay akong buhaton ,

Para utok di na maglibog unsay angay himuon.

Kung ikaw gugmaan pa gihapon sa lain, ako na karon ang mulihok,

Aron ikaw dili na maglibog ug mag muk-muk.

Karon ako ang ania, unta ako dili na talikdan.

Ampingan ug panggaon ,kay ako isa ra ug anad ng mag inusara.

Yaw kahadlok maging honest, kay ako nakat-on biskan sa akong ka dumbest.

Gugmang ga uros-uros, unta dili ni mahimong botbot ug loslos.

Selos, away , syagitay , wa lang unta’y dapatay.

Puhon , ang sakal mahimong kasal. Ug ang gugma mao’y mulahutay.

Panggaon ang usag’usa, hangtod kitang duha mahimong usa.

Aron ikaw ug ako, dili mag dinumutay , bagkos padayun’g maghigugmaay.

Sa karon man,ugma ug hangtod sa kahangturan. 😊

Upper Arlington Centennial - Part 1

Tuesday at Northam Park from 3:30 to 6:30PM is the Centennial Celebration of the City of Upper Arlington, which was incorporated as a village on March 20, 1918.  Founded by King and Ben Thompson, Upper Arlington was designed as a country club community, with its curvy streets that defied the traditional grid pattern (case in point - the Near East neighborhood of Eastgate and the East Side neighborhood of Berwick also had curvy streets in their designs around that same time).  The Upper Arlington Historic District (everything SOUTH of Lane Avenue) was placed on the National Register for Historic Places in 1985.
