“May nakakatawa ba dun?”

Ilan lang ‘to sa mga salitang nababasa at naririnig ko, pero ang nakakabagabag dito ay ‘yung pagreply ng “HAHA” may masama ba sa pag-reply ng “haha”? sorry kung naparamdam ko sayo yung feeling na umasa ka sa reply ko na akala mo makabuluhan. Hindi ba pwedeng nagkataon lang na ti-nype ang apat na letrang yun, bandang huli nagiisip baka na-misinterpret mo yun dahil na-realized ko na ikaw pala yung tipong tao na ayaw ng tawang HAHA na walang kalatoy-latoy, walang emoticon, walang kwenta, at hindi na capitalize. Pero hayaan mo akong ikwento kung ano ang dapat na matanggap mong reply mula sa’kin.

May natanggap akong message mula sayo, ramdam na ramdam ko at habang binabasa ko ay tila ba naririnig ko ang boses mong binabanggit ang bawat salitang cinompose mo.

Masaya ako sa pag-effort mong nag-type at nagisip ng message na yun,

Nagisip ako kung ano ba dapat ang ibalik kong reply sayo,yung mapapangiti ka ng abot tenga. Sa totoo lang bago mo pa i-send ang mga salitang yun, iba’t ibang emosyon na ang nararamdaman ko nung mga oras na nag-rereply sayo para akong isang lobo na anumang oras pwede nang pumutok. Ang “HAHAng” nareply ko ay may iba pang gustong iparating. Hindi ko man masabi ng personal ang nararamdaman ko sayo pero kahit sa message nalang,

Gusto Kita.

Yan… ang reply ko na dapat matanggap mo, pero kasi pinangunahan ako eh… pinangunahan ako ng kaba, hiya, at lungkot na baka ang dalawang salitang yan ay mauwi sa sagot na…

‘Di ko kayang ibalik yan…

paulit-ulit na binura isa isa ‘yung dalawang salitang yun kaya binago ko nalang sa pagreply ng haha

At dun ko napagtanto na binura mo na pala lahat ng conversation nating dalawa isusunod ko na sanang sabihin na… na GUSTO KITA!..

Ano bang tingin mo sa’kin masamang tao? Ganon nalang ba yun, na sa tingin mo wala akong pakialam sa nararamdaman mo, yun na paniniwalaan mo?…

Napaka BIG DEAL ha!…

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

• Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
• Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

• Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
• What topics do you think you’ll write about?
• Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
• If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
