After three years, Rizal recorded his first, sad romance...
"Ended, at an early hour, my first love! My virgin heart will always mourn the reckless step it took on the flower-decked abyss. My illusions will return, yes, but indifferent, uncertain, ready for the first betrayal on the path of love." - Rizal
Katuwa naman. Tumutugtog ang Torpedo sa paligid.

Nabasa ko rin kung bakit tinanggal ang kabanata ni Elias at Salome. May financial crisis daw at mahal ang pagpapa-print. Lack of funds, Rizal had to shorten the manuscript and he removed the chapter without destroying the flow of the story. Pero buti hindi totally nawala yung supposedly Chapter XXV na naging missing chapter ng Noli. Sa tingin ko kasi hindi mabubuo ang Kabanata LI na tungkol sa kasaysayan ni Elias kung walang istorya tungkol sa lovelife niya. Hehe.

Hemingway, prom na bukas. Eww. Haha. Sana ma-enjoy namin.

Geh. Sa susunod nalang ulit.
'Yan na 'yon. Yung sinasabi kong quotable quote. Tsaka sa Ateneo pala muna si Rizal bago nag-UST. At sixteen years old nga siya nang mangyari ang pagkikita nila ni Segunda Katigbak.
His grandmother's guests, who were mostly college students, knew of his skill in painting, so that they urged him to draw Segunda's portrait. He complied reluctantly and made a pencil sketch of her. "From time to time," he reminisced later, "she looked at me, and I blushed."

After disengaging himself from her tender embrace, he left with a heavy heart, following the lonely path lined with the shadows of somber trees in the twilight. She followed him with her gaze, listening sadly to the fading footsteps in the gathering darkness.
