4am. by KASKADE (my new favorite song)
Sleepless gliding
Over the city lights
Watch us flying
Over the streets tonight
And I say
There's a way, there's a way
I knowThere's a way, there's a way
I knowThere's a way, there's a way
I know that someday we will surely find it
There's a way, there's a way
I knowThere's a way, there's a way I know
Someday, there's a way
Someday, there's a way
I know itSunday morning
Watching the city sleep
Dreams are shining
Finely they're within reach

One Shitty Date
Three weeks ago Brandon and I decided to go out for drinks. "I know what your thinking?" Brandon is this guy who I met at this bar. Yeah yeah yeah we all know that he is not the type of guy I would like to date. because the guys that I like are blue colar looking or should I say Errs! Well he was classified as an Err as in Bartend-Err.Our first date was a disaster. January 14th Wednesday when I went to the bar he asked me to go out this coming friday which was 16th. We will meet at the same place where he works. Okay I admit I was 30 minutes early because "Hello! the busses here are so unpredictable. I don't want to be late and plus I'm not in the Philippines anymore."
When I arrived at the bar of course hugs and kisses... he said "I will be with you in a half hour!" Half an hour passed there he is seated beside me small talks about the weather typical date introductory statements.
Brandon: Hey Charles do you wanna eat?
Charles: I'm not really hungry, but if you are we can grab a bite if you like!
Brandon: Great! I know a place.
We went to Landry's this seafood restaurant. I ordered a salad that was it since I am not that hungry. He ordered lobster bisque soup, he said he does not want to eat anything heavy. The soup itself was heavy with cream. We had a wonderful conversation about life here in Vegas, exchanges of ideas. You know? It's like getting to know each other etc... etc...
After the restaurant thing, Okay so we paid our bill then we went to Spotlight bar. When we got to the bar. I ordered my new favorite Vodka Cranberry and then he ordered his Corona beer. While talking and having out drinks he said he needed to go to the restroom. I was at the bar listening to old school house music. He then just popped out from no where and said:
Brandon: Charles! Something came up?!
Charles: Why what's wrong?
Brandon: I have an emergency?!
Charles: What emergency?
Brandon: I have to go to the house!
Charles: Okay if you like you can just leave me here, and then just come back for me?
Brandon: No, no, no I cant!
Charles: What do you mean you can't? You can just leave me here! I can take care of myself.
Brandon: No I cannot just leave you here! I need to drive you home.
Charles: Huh! it's alright?! I can always take the cab home.
Brandon: Please let me take you home. Please...
The reason why I did not want to go home is that. I mean we all know if we go out to drink, we can never have just one glass of our favorite cocktail. Diba!!!! Bitina Aragon! I took a deep breath and then went out the bar and said:
Charles: Honey! be honest okay what... is... wrong...?
Brandon: Charles alright, alright... I'm going to be very honest with you!
Charles: ?
Brandon: Alright... fine shitted on my pants!
Oh my gosh... I know it's rude to laugh but I could not help myself I was laughing like crazy.
Brandon: Let's go!
Charles: Okay! wait?! let me just get some tissues and something to cover your drivers seat! :)
So I went back inside the bar and got a bunch of napkins and some magazines. When we got to the car I asked him not to sit yet because I needed to put the napkins and opened the magazine and placed it on top off his driver seat so that he wont get anything of his crap on the seatcover. On the way home all the windows of his car was openned. Grabe... It really smelled as in super!
Brandon: Come on stop laughing!
Charles: I'm sorry... I could not stop laughing... You know why?
Brandon: ?
Charles: YOu know what honey? Your the first guy I have ever dated here in Vegas as in 1st time here in Vegas! It's an unforgettable date.
Brandon: I'm sorry I ruined our date.
Charles: No you did not ruin our date in fact I had so much fun with you. But I hope next time when we have our date again, make sure not to eat anything dairy so we wont get emergencies like this! :)
I got home already went down his car and stood there for a while. I wanted to have a cigarette just before I go inside the house.
Brandon: Come on go inside already!
Charles: I want to smoke first before I go inside.
Brandon: Please I cant leave until I am pretty sure you are home safely.
Charles: Take care drive safely.
Awww that's sweet! I went back inside and kissed him on the cheak and went inside the house! Then he drove away
That same evening I texted him and said that I really enjoyed his company. The next day I never heard from him. I guess he was really embarrassed. One thing I can never forget is his honesty as in! "Konte na lang ang mga guys na honest! Aminin mo yan!"
Imagine the same thing happened to you? Sige nga ano gagawin mo? In english: What will you do?

After...
Saturday November 15, 4:55pm I left the Philippines and went to Las Vegas via Philippine Airlines. We Arrived Mc Carran International Airport Las Vegas Saturday November 15, 5:55pm. Tita Luz was there to pick us up. Tita Luz was clueless that my Mom was with me.
After the airport Tita Luz is going to drop me off at Summerlin which was sooooo fucking far from the strip. Then on the way to the summerlin place I told Tita Luz that we made reservations at the Marriott Suites. We will stay there for 2 weeks until I get a room of my own somewhere near the strip. ("The Tita Luz Experience" will be the next blog)
After going to North Las Vegas to meet my housemate to be. Tita Luz decided to have dinner at Asia Buffet. right after dinner. I told her that Mom and I will be staying at the Marriott then we'll think about, if were going to stay at Summerlin at North Las Vegas or whatever. Finally she dropped us at Marriott. That same night I went down stairs to use their wifi I checked my friendster and Queenie my high school classmate messaged me giving me her cell number because she and her family lives in Vegas. I replied to her the hotels number and the room. The next day she called. and hanged with us.
My Mom and I got a room here at South West Las Vegas very close to the strip. Fabulous location after a week my Mom left. She went back to the Philippines. I've never felt so alone in my entire life. I came across a friend at YM and eventually I was already speaking with a very close friend of mine using Skype. I remember I was babbling about how sad and hard it was to get a job here in the U.S. well guess what I still don't have a job hehehe.
After that week another friend of mine called and said they are planning to spend new years eve here and asking me to look for a hotel accommodation for 3 days. I went out of my room to ask "Moriel" my land lord. She gave me a card from Palms Las Vegas 5 blocks away from where we live $89.00 for 2 days. I then called Dave to let him know. So he did and that was done.
After 2 days another super dooper close friend of mine called me early in the morning, I was still asleep dreaming about fantasy world. It was Red, telling me good news that he won tickets for 2 to USA! "Aba ate let me know para makapag handa ako ng banda at mga banderitas para sa inyong pagdating!"
After a week another friend of mine called, Brian my college kaberks! He said he is coming December 12 and will be staying at the Circus Circus. That was good news atleast I can leave the house and go to bars.
After 2 days I decided to come with my housemate Gerry. He's a "Really old school type." We had dinner at the Palms then he decided to go to Planet Hollywood to show me around. I asked him questions about gay places here in Vegas he said he doesn't know where but then he knows where "Krave" is located. hehehe
After Planet Hollywood, I asked him that I wanted to go to Charlie's this gay place at Tropicana and Arville. So we took the bus going there. Surprisingly packed on a Sunday because of NGRA Nevada Gay Rodeo Association. Never knew gays like to rodeo how butch hahaha. I've never been to a bar that plays ballroom and people dancing the electric slide the whole night. hahaha That same night I sms Brian and told him about the bar he said he'll just go there with me on Wednesday.
After 3 days Brian and I went to Charlie's. The door was closed and on the opposite side of the door it says press to enter. I pushed the button and I heard a long beep signaling me to open the door. Well when I opened the door there was only one person drinking at the bar with the bartender.
After a few drinks we left and just went to the Riviera for Slots and free booze. Then we parted and went to our own way home.
I woke up at 12nn wondering what to do. I've decided to just go solo. Meaning to discover gay places by myself. I got up went to the shower decided to wear something butch and checked the map and went to find the Escape lounge located at West Sahara and Arville Rd. While at the bus Brian sms me saying that he is leaving tomorrow at 10am to Dallas and he wants to meet and come with me where ever Im going. I sms messaged him back saying to meet me at West Sahara and Arville.
After 15 minutes I reached my destination. Escape lounge when I was about to open the door my cell rang it was Brian. "Ate! sunduin moko dito hindi ko alam papunta jan!" So I said fine went back to the bus stop and told him to meet me at Las Vegas Blvd. Another 15minutes has passed and I was already at Las Vegas Blvd. called him and met him and rushed to the bus stop.
After 20 minutes due to the traffic on the way back to where I was. There are 2 separate doors leading to the lounge the 1st was the main door going to the foyer then another closed door with a door bell then its the lounge. There was a big over sized bar with a lot of people sitting by it. We ordered our drink and it was two for one. The Bartender Brandon, what a sweetheart was very entertaining. Well we ended up drunk and we did not even know how we came home.
Brian went home today, he sms me saying that he had a wonderful time last night and could not even remember how he got home. I stayed home the whole day. Didn't even feel like going out.
After dinner a strange number appeared to my cell. Hello? "Can I speak with Charles please?" This is Charles I repied. "Ateee pupunta ako jan sa December 28 and 29 labas tayo?!" Sino to? "Si Ruel College. You posted your number sa Harooj Society Remember?"

Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow and So on
Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow and So on
exasperation, your breath being sucked out of you
cold air stiffening your every step
running home fighting every second
adrenaline, your only friend
voice cracking hands shaking lips clenched tight
words rattling your brain, memories of conversations
eternally embedded into your subconscious mind
ugly things your mother said when you were young
words you could never shake
words that you became, just because you hate them so much
passion swarming in your blood
a house for your love
an outlet for creativity
your feeling yellow but so much that even the air feels wary of its existence
the stains on your fingers from smoking become more evident
the sanctuary you used to know now just a dream
the beauty you used to see now just a picture
a smile on your face somehow brings me down
shouldn't this work the other way around?
chatterbox laughing at a joke i used to know
i listen but am blank, just watch the moment go
they are good friends yes they warm my thoughts
swarming around, why is my stomach in a knot?
i choke out a half hearted laugh
maybe even smirk
inside i feel such wrath
i feel like such a jerk
witty and smug they are cozy and loved
never would touch a drug
i'm standing here right next to them
thoughts troubled with sin
they are laughing, smiling when
i feel i'm outside looking in.
