my main man part two.
sobrang mahal namin ng ate ko ang kuya ko. as in sobra. as in siya ang most important man in both our lives.
with the help of my brother's wonderful girlfriend tracy, ang naging birthday gift naming tatlo sa kuya ko last january for his 30th birthday? two warm bodies in the person of me and my sister.
sobrang personal ng video na ito, but i would like to share it with you. itong moment na ito kasi ang highlight ng buong 2007 ko. :)
bilib ako sa sister ko who managed to take a video of the whole happening pa, samantalang ako, umiiyak lang sa tuwa the whole time. haha!
life lessons of a kuya's girl.
1. he is always there for me.
ever since bata ako, kapag may nagpapalungkot sa akin, kapag may mangyayaring magpapalungkot sa akin, he was never the let's-sit-down-and-talk-and-tell-me-all-about-it type.. he just always made me feel that he is there for me. that though he was not the type to give cheesy, brotherly advice, a simple tight hug would tell me that everything will be alright.
2. he is protective in the right way.
he never stopped people, events, or things from hurting me.. kasi alam niya na hindi niya kayang i-control yun. at alam niya na kailangan kong pagdaanan yun so that i will be stronger as a person. he has this way of making us feel na kaya niyang makipagpatayan para sa amin, and though he will never actually have to do it, knowing that he would be willing, is the best shield of love.
3. he has the classiest taste in all things.
whether it be clothes, music, movies, food, things to do, places to go to, manner of speaking, way of dealing with people.. my kuya has the best taste. he influenced me and my sister a lot in the "taste" department, and for that we are very thankful.
4. he is the reason i am in the work i am in right now.
if it weren't for him, di ko naman malalaman na kaya kong gawin ang trabaho ko ngayon. i am a really, really shy person, (and all my friends can attest to that) kaya it is a big surprise to me na kaya ko pala maging confident enough to do the work that i do. naging "idol" ko ang kuya ko na ang dami niyang kayang gawin, at yun ang naging inspiration ko.
5. he has big dreams and he goes for them.
sobrang cliche ng linyang "go for your dreams". at kahit never ito ginawang advice sa amin ng kuya ko, the way he lived his life showed it. he influenced by example. he works hard, and parties hard. (yeah!) if he knew that what he was fighting for was the right thing, he would protect the people he loves and fight for it until the end. he was never afraid to go out of his comfort zone and test himself kung ano ang kaya niyang gawin at kaya niyang maabot.
on the other side of that, he has always been so proud of me and my sister and our own dreams, and in fact, lagi siyang proud na proud na ipagmalaki kami. and that means the world to us.

awwwww!
so sweet!!!
Hi Bianca!
Awww. Nakaka-touch naman ang post mo. Pati ako, naiyak habang nanonood ng video...and I'm in Starbucks (Chicago). Buti walang masyadong nakapansin, hehe :) Kuya's girl rin ako. Watching your video just made me miss my brother more.
You're so blessed with a loving family. Take care!
Awww!Senti naman ang post mo, teary eyed tuloy ako :(
awww. i cried after reading your entry. (havent watched the video yet. i had to comment agad) super heartfelt. palagi ko talaga sinasabi na sana may kuya na lang ako. kaya siguro naging close ako sa mga pinsan kong lalaki.
keep chasing your dreams bianca. :)
Wow that was very sweet and nice. I have a feeling your kuya will be your "standard" when looking for a life long partner.
May you find him and most of all HIM in all your life.
Regards,
Sam

walang ano mang material o bagay ang makakapantay sa presence ng love ones. that's really the best gift that you and your ate can give. grabe super sweet ng ginawa ninyo. sana may gumawa niyan sakin kung nababasa lang niya to hehe. great job bianca and ate.
That was a very intimate family moment. Thank you for sharing it with us.
To travel more than 5,000 miles, on the other side of the world, to greet your brother on his birthday.... very sweet of you sisters. Wow!
...And you pulled it off without he ever knowing! Very mission: impossible!
AMEN TO THIS BLOG A HUNDRED TIMES.
When i broke up with my first boyfriend, i was at home. Without saying a word, he looked at me, then left. A minute later he came back with a soupbowl full of vanilla ice cream where he crushed a couple of oreos (actually a LOT of oreos) and sprinkled it on top. He just sat there beside me as i ate my ice cream. He never said anything but to this day, that was for me the best comforting i ever got my entire life. =)
aaawww. nakakatouch ang post mo.
nakakaiyak.
the video was weet. saya yata magkaroon ng kuya - ako kasi kuya sa amin.
i love my kuya too...in fact, i'm gonna visit him in cebu this september..
(zamboanga bomb scare again..)
*applause*
for you, your ate & for your kuya...
Hey Bianca! That was really a neat surprise for your Kuya. Can't blame him for reacting that way. :)
Btw, I host blogs and I'm also a blog designer. If you're interested, I can cook up another personalized blog (with your own hosting) for you. We can maybe get the biancagonzalez.net or something. Free of charge of course. I dunno if that's something that will interest you (or maybe you're already working on something like that) But if it does, do let me know. You can consider it a gift. :)
God bless!
PS: We can also import your posts from blogger to WordPress.
Ah, don't mind me. I'm a supporter of WordPress. :D
That was so sweet.
I can't say lot of words.. ang sweet talaga.
that's sweet..! i wish a also have a brother or a sister.. you're lucky to have both.. :D take care!:D godbless... you're doing great..! keep it up! :D:D:D Ü

GoD bless you both. :)
ever since, i've been wishing for a kuya na... i'm panganay kasi and always wished for an older brother... you are super lucky :)
Nakakatouch. Nakakainspire to love. In fact, it makes one realize how much she loves her brother as well.
wow .. i'm jealous.
now i wish i had younger siblings. =(
i always wish na sana may SISTER na lang ako, (midlle child-only girl here)but with this post you made me appreciate my brothers more...THANKS!
soooo sweet! :)
Girl, I sooooooooo L O V E the video clip !!!
Grabe, nice to watch over and over again! Can I request for a LONGER version of the video and feature it in your next blog: "my main man part 3?" o ayan, bianx, inunahan na kita, ha! he-he
I LOVE IT !! (bianca mode)
awww.. :) You've really grown close to your brother. I'm not really a Kuya's Girl cuz we don't talk a lot(he seems like another person) but through what you showed me with your siblings' closeness, it made me realize how important my siblings are to me, even though sometimes, they annoy me, ignore me, and even, quarel with me. It's natural that siblings fight anyways right? :) Thanx for that lovely post.
hi biancs (wow nman, feelng close din ako.lol) inggit nman ako s closeness nyo. hndi nman ksi kmi gnun ka close. How i wish din mkpgtravel man lng ako. khit s hongkong lng. ahihihi!
Anyways, how i loved reading your blog. so real tlga!
God bless and keep it up!
Hi BiaNca,
Nice post, i love it! Galing tlga!
i dont have a brother, be it elder or younger, what i have ay 3 makukulit na little sisters, and i love the bond that we have, i love it most especially when they come to me to tell me everything about them, anything under the sun, sobrang great talaga ung feeling. Nways, im really happy for u, for having loving and great siblings.
by the way, first time ko manood last saturday ng EL, u look lovely sa green dress mo, so pretty! and sobrang classy ang glamorous mo, also the way u speak at maghost, da best! keep it up! sayang dko napanood lahat, sa field kasi ako, have to work na. pero sobrang hands up tlga ako sa pagtake mo ng mga bagay2. like when toni and mariel emphasize ung comeback of kc, andun pa rin tlga ung pagiging compose mo, i love it!
pagpapalain ka tlga ng Dyos, u really are sobrang nice na tao.
God bless, will always pray for u...ja^__^

"happy birthdayyyyy ... happy birthday brooooo..." ang PANGIT ng boses, sino ba yun? siguro 100 times nya sinabi yun. NAKAKAINIS. parang yero ang boses in fairness.
do you also seek advice about lovelife to your brother? what do you learn about love and relationship from your brother?
may boto at di boto din ba sya sa nanligaw, nanliligaw o naging mga bf mo?
thanx for sharing your thoughts!

Good looking, intelligent and a role model. I remember the time when you guested there (model ka pa nun) and me not knowing that hes your brother. How cool! Sbi ko you guys should have an article, something like "siblings role models", then in my surprise i read an article of you guys in Chalk mag. My crush and WAS my Role model (di ko na alam what hes up to e hehe). Kudos! you guys inspire people. Keep watcha u doin! Belated to ur bro.

Hi bianca.
It's very inspiring to see how close and how loving your family is. And its so great to discover how you value your family that much.
It's cool.
Keep it up.
***
I'm a guy but I'm pretty much attached to my elder brother because he is sacrificing a lot for us and protect us whatever way he can.
Thanks for sharing the video.
I hope brothers would be inspired by your post.
Take care of yourself.
i've never posted any comment on anyone's blog. pero when i read this post, and watched the video, seeing your face and your brother's face while hugging, so warm, so sincere. i so miss my bro too, i really cried...
^_^
that was heart-warming.
hello. i would want to ask if i could borrow the pic with mark twain's quote. the one with,"twenty years...." i would want to put it on my blog. i'd be waiting for your reply.
gud thing ur close to ur brother. and family. i wish our family is as tight as yours.
awww that's so sweet! i wish i had an older brother :)
your kuya is the hottest person in the world..haha, i think i had major crush on him when i was 14(?) or somethin, actually until now!!! =)
loved your kuya's SURPRISED look! priceless!
and yes, i think your kuya can be the president of the "taste" department! =) lahat kaung magkakapatid, you seem like your really nice people..
hi, biankee! zb here! just wonder, is that tracy (jc's gf) i heard saying something in the background, or is it you who's talking? cuz all the while, (while your ate & kuya are embracing) eh, ang naririnig ko lang sayo (sa background) ay.. "aha ha ha ha"...tapos a little later "aha ha ha ha" ulit ? yan ang trademark laugh mo, db?
shooooot! you made me cryyyy!
last bday ko, ang kuya ko naman ang umuwi here sa pinas, yun nga lang, alam ko. hehe. but nonetheless, pinaka masaya kong bday yun. :)
and the reaction on your bro's face, awesoooome. super surprised talaga siya. galing magtago. hehe.
ang sweeet. ramdam mo talaga yung love between you siblings. thanks for sharing this video to us. :)
aaahhhh! you made me miss my kuya even more. grrrrr!! umiiyak ako ngayon.. :'(

I just hope that my ate, my younger sister and I will grow up the way you, your ate and kuya grew up together ─ a strong bond among the three.
And sana ganyan din towards... someone.
Ang cute ng video and the post of yours now and I admire you more than ever! Good Luck to you, Ms. Bianca... Your blogs has helped too many people in such a way you didn't know you had already done, at isa na ako sa mga yon. Eversince I've read the December 2004 ish (not sure!) of Pink Mag and saw your collection of Chucks, I becane your insatant fan... Although I'm really a certified KAPUSO, still it doesn't stop me from admiring you. You are really a great and brilliant person I will always cherish. Just keep the fire burning for your deep love for Christ...
God Bless always... 'Love yah and take care always.

Dear Binca,
Good morning. First I want to introduce myself, I'm Jerome. Well, I was touched by the video that I saw with your brother JC, when I think to his surprise you got yourself pretty surprise too, surprising him. I saw the emotions in his eyes on how he cant explain at that very moment, like many of us might had that feeling some part in our lives, thats the true meaning of happiness. Like in one instant you cant describe the feeling all you feel is your heart pumping and your face muscle starting to smile but wanting to stay confused, staring, smiling, and crying all at the same time. Its just how life is we cant seem to stay in one place, all of us, meaning staying together as a family, talking, smiling, breakfast, lunch, dinner, all those free time that we used to miss and those that we didnt mind.... now missing it completely. Im presently living independently now, if you can call it that, with my younger brother, at our parents place, that is even if we wanted to move out which I did, no body else would stay at our home. My parents are both in the states, and my older brother is in UK. I sure miss him a lot, I the middle of 3 siblings of which were all boys. My parents had their months vacation, and he was not here, my parents and my brothers havent seen each other going 2 years now, so I know how missing someone be.
Anyways, I saw and read your blog that you had bought a CANON EOS 400D SLR, that a good piece of DSLR. How is it handling months after having it? I will be starting in Digital photography as well with my 40D. Hope you find time giving me so helpfull tips.
Good luck!!!! As the Doctor would say... An Apple A Day. Makes 7 Apples A Week...
Regard,
Jerome Castro M.D.
