LP: Feeling Blue

By reflexes January 15, 2009  

Isn’t it always difficult to go back from the height of the holidays and back to the normal routine? I am not fully back on routine yet as the kids are still on their school holidays. Though it is almost sure that that strange feeling will come. Perhaps its the fact that being on holidays for a long period creates a much desired routine. Anyway, I guess we just all be thankful for the chance to enjoy the blue fireworks and not think about being blue.

Tagalog Translation:
Hindi ba’t napakahirap bumalik mula sa kasagsagan ng bakasyon tungo sa dating nakagawiang gawain? Pero hindi pa naman ako balik sa dati dahil nga nakabakasyon pa ang mga bata. Kya lang, halos sigurado na yung kakaibang pakiramdam na yun ay darating. Marahil ito na rin ay dahil ang pagbabakasyon ay lumilikha ng mas kinagigiliwang ‘routine’. Ano pa man, dapat lamang na tayo ay magpasalamat na makaranas ng asul na fireworks at hindi ang pagiisip tungkol sa pagiging malungkot (being blue).

I can totally relate…
Huling linggo ko ng summer holiday vacation at kahit ang bata ay bakasyon pa, next Monday ay back to work na ako uli…

Ang hirap talagang bumalik sa routine after the holidays. Adjusting pa rin ako hanggang ngayon eh 2nd week back na namin.

Magandang araw!

Napaka-magical ng fireworks. At agree din ako, hirap bumangon kapag back to normal na after vacation.

Ang aking bunsong kapatid ay lumayag na sa kanyang OJT, kaya ako na lang ang iikot para sa kanya. Ang aking LP ay nakapost dito at ang kanyang lahok dito. Hapi Huwebes!

I totally agree - really so hard to get back to “reality” after a very pleasant “holiday mode” - hehehe :D

Buti na lang the fab fireworks helped in lifting your spirits up a bit, right? ;)

I know! I’m back in my dorm and I’m starting to feel the blues, probably its just because of the Ray Charles I’m listening to or by the sheer emotional landslide I’m feeling after my Holiday high subsided… Tita, I have a new Blog, hopefully I can maintain it this time! Miss you all!

What a beautiful shot! But what I love most here is the Tagalog translation of what you have written. Ang hirap kaya magsulat ng pure Tagalog hihihi…. I like your site! Nice to meet you. Hugs kababayan, from Sydney, Australia.
