happy father's day!!!

let me share to you this... in the movie "PARENT TRAP" where two sisters switch places, with a plan to reconciliate their separated parents. hallie and annie lived apart. hailey with her dad and annie with her mom. see., the point here is.. when they switched places.. annie got the chance na makasama yung dad nya na hindi nya pa nakasama since her baby days dahil nga naghiwalay yung parents nila... picture this: Annie is in the car while her dad drives her off to their house... (remember: its annie's first time to see his dad!)

dad: why do you keep on saying DAD at the end of every sentence?
annie(pretending to be hallie): I'm sorry. I didn't realize I was doing it, Dad.
annie(pretending to be hallie): Sorry, Dad.
annie(pretending to be hallie): Do you want to know why I keep saying "Dad"? the truth?
dad: because you miss your old man so much, right?
annie(pretending to be hallie):exactly! because in my whole life.,, I mean for the past eight weeks... I was never able to say the word "Dad". Never, not once! And if you ask me, I mean... A dad is an irrreplaceable person in a girl's life. Think about it. There's a whole day devoted to celebrating father's. Just imagine someone's life without a father? -- never buying father's day card, never sitting on their father's lap... neverbeing able to say "Hi Dad!" or "What's up Dad?" or "Catch you later, Dad!" I mean baby's first words are always "dada" aren't they?
dad: let me see if i get this -- You miss being able to call me Dad?
annie(pretending to be hallie): yeah! i really have!!

i really cried in that part!!! i guess, i also missed my own father. i am now 17 and i swear maybe half of it was spent without him beside me. (my dad works out of the country and i only see him really once in a while...) i love my PAPA so much!! i always text him and tell him how much i am thankful that he's my father but he'll just say its "DRAMA!!!" (my Papa really is such a funny guy.,, siguro sa kanya ko namana yung pagiging jolly and pagiging joker ko!) he was not able to graduate from college that's why he tries his best to let me in to the university and finish my studies kasi sabi nya "para hindi ka matulad sakin" but hey... wala na kong mas gugustuhin pang tularan kundi si Papa... he works hard for everything. i look up to him... he's just the best for me... ( can't believe i'm crying right now while posting this! darn!! ) i remember, i cried upon blowing the candle during my 7th birthday (reason: cause namimiss ko si papa) and my papa's not there. i also once read this message from papa telling my mom that "Ma, kahit ako'y makalbo pa, kahit ako'y tumanda na at ikaw ay mabungi na kahit wala ka ng ipin.. mahal na mahal kita!" (aaaww.. sweet!!!)

we look like each other... as in... suuuuper!!! darn!!! (nose plang... i kinda hate it at times!!! laki kasi... Love you Pa!!!!

excess: a classmate sent this one,.. its very nice
wherever your dad may be at this moment, i know he was able to influence you to be as strong and determined like HIM!!!! (its so true!!!)
