i thought that...
October 22, 2007 - It was supposed to be a very good day for me. Everything was good. I won in the "translate this song" contest. The rule is to translate a song from english to tagalog. The contest piece was the chorus of the song Umbrella by Rihanna. This is the chorus of the original version:
When the sun shine we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend
Took an oath, I'mma stick it out 'til the end
Now that it's raining more than ever know that we'll still have eachother
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella (ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella (ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella (ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella (ella ella eh eh eh eh eh-eh)
My Version:
Sumikat man o hindi ang araw
Samahan kita sa araw-araw
Sabi ko nandito lang ako
Naghihintay, nagbabantay sa iyo
Lumakas man o hindi ang ulan
Samahan kita hanggang katapusan
Andito lang ako magpakailanman
'Di kita iiwan kahit kelan (kelan, kelan, yeah, yeah, yeah)
'Di kita iiwan kahit kelan (kelan, kelan, yeah, yeah, yeah)
'Di kita iiwan kahit kelan (kelan, kelan, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Then, my parents just arrived from Manila that day. We met up at church. As we were on our way home, my mom told me that they have a surprise. When we arrived home, they showed me a black back. I recognized it as a bag for a laptop and it was really a laptop! I was really happy because it has been almost a year when I asked my parents to buy me a laptop for the reason that I kinda need it for my schoolwork. I really got excited. I was overwhelmed. As you can see in this pic.
So excited!
On that day, my group mates were having an overnight at our house for our Research. When 2 of them arrived, we waited for the others. While waiting, we watched High School Musical 2. Moments later, my mini pincher pup - Bam-Bam, went near us. I got bored watching HSM2 since I have watched it for several times. Because of boredom, I decided to play with Bam-Bam who approached us. I put him on the arm of the chair where I was sitting. We were playing happily. Then, he slipped from the arm of the chair and fell. I quickly picked him up. Because he was moving so much, he fell again and this time it was harder than the fall he had earlier. This time, he did not move much. As I picked him up, I started to worry. I went to my yaya as fast as I can. We tried to revive him. Then, I began to cry. After a few minutes, we noticed that he doesn't move anymore. I cried harder. We just realized that he is already dead. I can't believe that he died. He was just four months old. I really felt guilty that day. I know it was just an accident but the thought that he died with me. When I was alone at school this day, the happening last night kept repeating on my head. I could still hear the loud thud when he fell. I kept on crying last night and early this morning. Also, when I arrived, I cried because I saw his mom and I felt sorry for her. I thought that was a good day for me. All that I have received that day had was immediately exchanged with my very precious pup's life. *sigh* I'm still depressed right now. ='( I guess, that would be all for now.
In the loving memory of Bam-Bam...
