(01:19:58) neko: bat pati jerusalem? eh di ba neutral kayo?!!

(01:22:09) nene: ndi, hati ang Jerusalem… the West belongs to the palentinian Arabs while the East belongs to the Jews.. and gusto ng mga Arabs sakupin lahat pero ayaw syempre ng mga Jews..

(01:25:23) neko: no one is safe-safe. :( war is expensive and capricious! think: 9/11. did anybody expect that? NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(01:29:04) neko: GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip – Israel obliterated symbols of Hamas power on the third day of what the defense minister described Monday as a “war to the bitter end,” striking next to the Hamas premier’s home, and devastating a security compound and a university building.

(01:31:47) nene: owkie, uwi nko.. gutom na din ako..hehe!

(01:31:51) neko: sagot ng white house: “We are encouraging all the nations in the region to take an active part in rebuilding the ceasefire so that we can return to the relative calm that was enjoyed in the region over the past six months,” he told reporters. “We are working for a cease-fire now where Hamas must stop its rocket attacks on Israel. All sides then need to respect the ceasefire.”

(01:31:54) neko: uwi na!!!

:( :( :( see? huhuhu. please keep her safe…

there’s a war in gaza – okay, war is the norm there. but it seemed a zillion miles away (before) for me to really take an active stance thus sympathies would have to suffice. fast track to today: heller, andun yung kapatid ko! ano ako hilo?!!! everything’s so personal now for me, i mean, everything gaza, palestine, israel. the whole conflict! and if i weren’t nervous enought, define staging an airstrike. AN AIRSTIKE! i.am.gonna.faint.

hay nene, all my 25 years – o sige, at least all the years in my sad, little, life when i realized i love you to pluto and back and that i will give anything and everything just to keep you safe, i TRIED to cover you… even to the point of me meddling. i did with good intentions.

grrr… i’m just worried. yes, you told me that you’re relatively far from gaza. even yehuda, through his letter, mentioned that they are prepared and that there is no need to worry – but try telling that to a heart that knows nothing but to protect. haha. isama mo pa si mama sa akin…

i can still remember how you smiled last night when i told you to bring all your money and your important docs with you everywhere you go. sabi mo paranoid talaga ako. ganun din yun sinabi mo nung nag wee-wee break ka at iniwan mo ang laptop mo sa student center habang asa kabilang linya ako ng webcam na talaga namang eagle-eyed sa pagmamatyag kung may kukuha… di ba tumawa ka kasi sabi mo walang nangingialam ng gamit diyan dahil akala nila bomb?!! guess what? – sabi ni mama, tama ako. HAHAHA! kaya nene, dalhin mo ang passport at pera mo lagi.

and come home safe. text me always.

i am too young to die thinking about you. :D

labshu!

nakatikim din naman ako ng paglayo sa aking “bahay”. nyahahah! in college, i was shipped off - and eventually fell in love – with the quaint town of los baños, laguna. oo nag-aral ako sa paanan ng makiling kung saan akala ng mga tao walang ibang tinda kundi buko pie na “original”.

- at walang  kagatol-gatol kong sasabihing it was the best X years of my life. hahaha. (i got extended, buti wala na noong mrr sa up.)

to live alone and independently can either make you or break you. it is also a good test of your measure as a person not to mention your budgeting skills. :) seriously, the initial “shock” fades away and out of it comes a zillion stories and lessons that you will fondly look back at.

i am definitely sure that this 1 year away will be one of the best if not the bestest year that nene will have in her life. :) aba! scholar ka na nakapagtrip ka pa!Ü tunay na kakaiba at nakakatakot sa una pero sa dulo – kering keri na.

at dahil napapagusapan din lang, eto ang mga pictures niya:

where nene lives and her housemates

ABOVE PIC SHOWS: nene with her housemates [yazmin = latin american; norah, m.d. (with red streaks) = kenyan; mieraf, m.d. (braids) = ethiopian], her apartment door and pathway towards it. the view from her veranda at night and in the morning plus her new room. 

first dinner with prof.eppstein

… eto namang asa taas nito ay ang kanilang first dinner in one of their prof’s house. apparently, it has become a tradition that IMPH students spend their shabbath dinners in one of their prof’s house. lilibutin nila ang bahay ng faculty hanggang matapos ang taon.

ayan, yan ang mga kasama nya dun. talk about learning to the highest degree -at shempre, mas nanapag palawak ng perspektibo sa buhay.

naiingit ka na ba? :) ako, oo. nyahahah.

sharing with you picture of nene’s firsts as she conquers the promised land. :)

 

 

 

will share more – soon!
