iba na pala ako ngayon

As we aged, that is of course with time, we wouldn’t notice certain changes in our desires for our life. We tend to be meticulous in choosing the things we wanted and even in how we want to live our life. We have savings and we spend it on important things. Unlike before, we save for the purpose of splurging it in shopping malls, fancy restaurants and restobars as if there’s no tomorrow to expect. We live like “one-day millionaires”.

I made some reassessment of myself and I was astonished by what I have become. Here I am thinking on saving and have many ideas on how to have good investment. Here I am who thinks of working hard to establish a rock-solid foundation for my future. Here I am who doesn’t think of girls but thought of a would-be future wife. GRABEeeeeeehhhhhh na to……!

I could remember that in the ‘90s it is so easy to stay for months without a girlfriend and hook up with a girl any time you want some company or some girlfriend thing. This is how my mind worked that time being influenced by my “babaero” circle of friends. Reasons that until now some people still coin me as “chickboy” or “babaero’. Anyway, I wouldn’t feel guilty of playing with ladies’ feelings because I had truly loved them.

I could remember that it was at the start of the 2000 that a great change in my perspective about life and girls had changed. Even the circle of friends I have had agreed that it’s to tiring to just look for a girlfriend. Time had already fashioned and conditioned us to look for wifey-material than a girlfriend-material around town. We become obsessed on the idea of preparing and starting to build the foundation of our future. There comes now the drive to earn a living and even plans of marrying. Unfortunately/fortunately, only two of us from our circle of friends have remained single at present.

I could not believe the change I had undergone yet I could not still believe that people still see me as the “chickboy” of the past despite these changes that transpired in my life.

Why should I worry about them? It’s there problem. Anyway, I wasn’t doing any harm do them. What is important is I’m not guilty of something and I am RENEWED and better than before.
