Durian Vendor

Trust me when I say this: It looks like a c*ck. Hahaha

It's now 10:10 PM here in Davao City, Philippines and I can't sleep. I've been reading a novel the whole day and now I'm spending time updating my social accounts on the web... This is insomnia.. I'm just worried my pimples wouldn't show up again. (My pimples usually show when I sleep late).

When I was scrolling my twitter homepage, I saw an image of a Durian which made me remember a story that I should have posted a week ago during my stroll at San Pedro.

I was at a Jollibee branch near the city hall and it was past 12:00 noon time. I was so hungry so I ended up eating at the cheapest restaurant my mind could imagine and that was at Jollibee. I ordered the usual: burger steak with three lumpias and a pineapple juice. It was unusual for me to see the store crowded with too many people but then I remembered it was lunch time. After about 10 minutes of lining up in front of the cashier for my food, I walked up the stairs and saw a sweet spot for me to sit, next to a couple which was also my age range, and both were so attractive. I usually take snapshots on these situations, but my hunger told my brain that it's not the priority right now. Right now, I should eat. So there I was, happily chewing on my meal and aborted the mission..

I was almost halfway on my meal when the couple decided to leave the store. As I was watching them, the guy stared at me intently while holding the girl's hand, his eyes told me: "get off creep, she's my girl". If only he knew I wasn't looking at her. Hahaha... Shortly after a few minutes, I too was also finished eating and decided to go home as well. Seeing that I was on San Pedro St, and since that road led straight to bangkerohan, I took the time to just walk on the straight path to ride a jeepney home (another giveaway to where I live). That way I can spend time exercising and save money (which by the way was 8 pesos only) for not riding the jeepney.

I saw nothing special on my initial treck down the familiar road. The street was still the same as it was when I was a kid. Still the same pawnshops. Still the same pirated DVD stalls. I even saw the same scenario of men playing chess at the sidewalk, with other men encircling them like it was some type of religious ceremony.

I was nearing the end of my journey, drenched with sweat, when I saw a guy that instantaneously quenched my thirst. It was in front of the Bombo Radyo office and the D'Morvie Suites. It was a push cart stall with the typical rainbow colored umbrella above. It displayed durians. There were two guys who sell this but one stood out the most.. He was the one cutting the durian. He wore a white sando that matched his sun kissed skin, and a pale blue shorts in knee length. He had a frame of an athletic Urggh, I think I just j*zzed my pants! He also looked like he had spanish ancestry, with his pronounced nose and thick eyebrows. At a rough estimate of 40 years old, this guy looked hot as hell..

By now I was still subconsciously walking, and by the time I grabbed my phone, I already walked past them. I tried to take a picture but there were many people, and some were looking at me. It was again an abort mission scenario, so instead I just looked back at him and remembered his face.

"I will come back" I told myself. "When the time is right."

If anyone is reading this that lives near the area, kindly do me a favor and take a picture of him for me so I can share this to our little community. Many thanks in advance!!

Davao City is so true with its words when it said "Life is here". Well, it's time to sleep. Goodnight guys. Keep safe. This is davaokiddo, signing out.

CND: Mike Espino

Hi guys. From now on I will be starting a series of posts about my crushes, and it's called CND or Crush Ni Davaokiddo for short. Haha. It's hard for me to share with someone that I have 'guy' crushes considering I am discreet so therefore, sharing it here will be a great solution for that problem. I may even get to know more about these guys from you, if you personally know them. You can always message me on my email: davaokiddo@gmail.com

So here it is. My first entry on this series of blog posts.

Mike Cedrick Gutierrez Espino

Currently, my facebook shows me that we have 47 mutual friends. I tried adding him the moment I saw his account on fb but failed because I think he has too many friend requests to begin with, so now I just follow him. Anyway, I first saw him on my facebook home 2 years ago. An fb friend posted a picture of him, and being so curious I clicked and discovered this handsome guy. (If you're reading this Mike, you're so handsome!!!) See that nose? Taas masyado ang ilong niya. And the eyes! *drools*. He's still studying at Ateneo de Davao University, taking up MassCom (i think) which makes his face and course so compatible. Pwede na siya mag artista! lols.

The Luckiest Day

When I was still studying, I always ride a jeepney at Ateneo to go home. (Oh, clue na yan ha kung saan ako nakatira). During those times I still stalk his facebook account so I know what he would look like when I see him personally. So there I was, waiting for a jeepney, tired from a haggard day of doing so many things in school, when two guys rode the same jeepney I rode in. These two guys were directly in front of me. Despite the very dim environment (because it was night time) I can clearly see that both were wearing Ateneo uniforms. One was a really huge, chubby guy talking with the guy on his side. As I looked at the guy he was talking to, my eyes went huge.. It was him! Mike in the flesh!! Shet! I wasn't really staring, more like making plenty of glances at him. I think he noticed because at one point, he stared at me, along with his friend. I was so nervous that time so I stopped my glancing.

Normally by this time I usually sleep inside the jeepney but NO I didn't. I took this opportunity to observe him, until he stopped at Shrine Hills and bid goodbye to his friend. (At least now I know where he lives). I never saw him again ever since. :(

On a plus side, he was also a boyscout during his high school years, like me! He was by the way an alumni of DRANHS.

There! Haha. Now you know. That's it for now guys. This is davaokiddo, signing out. Keep safe!

Going Downtown

Today I was from Victoria Plaza to buy something and appreciating the cold temperature in contrast to the hot atmosphere outside. After my 'shopping' I walked around to stay inside the arctic like state of the mall and, while I was walking on the upper floor, I came across a pet shop near Rocky's Barbershop area. My world suddenly transformed into the realm of Game of Thrones.

For the new information of everyone, I am an avid fan of GoT. Arya, Daenerys, Jon Snow, Cersei. I can give you a brief autobiography of this characters in a blink of an eye. You name it! I was suddenly reminded of GoT because of the HUSKY I saw inside a cage. He was so cute! If I had the money, I would probably bring him home with me and let him stay 24/7 on my air conditioned room. He was so playful especially when the girl employee let him go outside to eat and drink water.

 Here are his snapshots. :)

There was also a cute Shih Tzu (i think), and a cat which I can't identify the breed. I was actually enjoying myself watching these cute creatures play around when my peripheral vision caught another cute creature. Hahaha. He's not so GWAPO, but he has some sex appeal. Which I liked. Haha. Here he is, feeding the fish. Sorry if it's only the back, I get to conscious if I attempt to take a picture with them facing the camera. I get too scared or panic a lot. Hahaha. But I'll try to do better next time.

For the guys near Victoria, I suggest you go to the pet shop and do me a favor: kindly ask his name, instagram, facebook, and twitter account. For research purposes. lol.


Heading Home

Being tired for the day, I rode the jeepney going home. I was seated at the middle portion when I saw a cute sight. Almost comedic actually. Here.

What can you see in the picture? Yes! You guessed it. I rode a "bukot-bukot" jeepney. lol. I don't understand why other people prefer to ride an "uso-uso jeepney" full of passengers compared to an old looking jeep with a few passengers. Where's the logic in that? Haha. But the main point is not on the jeepney, it's on these two passengers here. It reminded me of my younger self. I'm like the guy on the left when a cute guy rides a jeep and sits face to face with me. Haha. I can't keep a straight face, so to avoid blowing my cover, I usually look outside. Hahaha..

That's it. My day at a glance. Keep safe guys. For all the closets there, never worry. You're not alone. This is davaokiddo saying goodnight. If you wanna talk to me, or want to share something, email me at: davaokiddo@gmail.com

When Two Discreets Meet

This day is officially added on my list as one of the "worst days on record"! Urgh! I'm still shaking because of the anger that I feel right now. The story goes like this.

I'm completely doing my daily routine, doing household chores, watching movies on TV or my laptop (if you know what I mean), and of course, socializing on my gay app. As I was browsing the "guys near you" list, someone messaged me like this: (Sa ____ ka talaga nakatira?). Thinking that he would go to my area, I quickly responded: (Oo. Dito ako sa _________. Bakit magpunta ka??). I was so excited because I thought he was heading to our place when suddenly he responded like this: (Ah, magkita nalang tayo sa ______). I was like, huh? What if he was a POSER!? And I would risk my safety if I go to an unfamiliar place. This certain guy chatted me long before and I can feel that he was also like me, a SUPER DISCREET GUY. So I told him: (Oh, akala ko kasi papunta ka dito.. lol.) The conversation continued doubting each other's profile pictures and formulating methods on how to prove each other's face. Then I told him what I learned when I was in Manila recently.

"You can prove someone's identity on a social app by making him take a picture of himself holding a piece of paper and writing on it your username. "
So I told him to do that, but he declined, worrying that his picture might be seen by many users on the gay app. He suggested instead that we both exchange our instagram accounts with our privacy turned on, so that when I try to follow him, he can immediately identify and see my account. His plan was pure genius because in that way, he will know that someone is legit or not by viewing the number of POSTS, FOLLOWERS, and FOLLOWING list on the account. It was a dead end. I would not risk giving my account on him.  For a split second I imagined the amount of damage it would do to my future career.My social status would be shattered if someone knew I was gay. And so was he. What interests me of him is that we are both alike. We are so cautious when it comes to revealing identities. And we are both aware of the consequences that would follow when doing the wrong move.

I had to say no. So I told him "No. Baka next time nalang siguro." And just like that, we bid each other goodbye, not knowing when our next conversation will be.

I hate being like this. I hate hiding. I want to reveal myself, but if I do, my world would be torn to pieces. Why can't the world accept us for what we are? Why, of all the places, was I born here? On a country where homosexuality and bisexuality is treated as a disease?! How many years should I wait for the country to accept PLU's? When?

Char. Nagdrama ako. LOL. Alisin na ang negativity! I'd have to live like this until kaya ko pa. Well, that's it for now guys. If you have something to share with me, you can email me at davaokiddo@gmail.com. Stay safe everyone. Lovelots.

Pare Mahal Mo Raw Ako - Official Music Video

Yes! I've been waiting for this music video to come out since the lyric video was posted on facebook. The video truly captured the essence of the song. It shows every closet gay guy's dilemma of having a really cool friend that later on, you developed feelings for!! Urrgh! The one doing the lip syncing is really cute. You know who he is? Michael Pangilinan himself!! Such a cutiee. <3

For those of you who does not understand Filipino, the song is about two boys who are closest best friends. It turns out though, that one of them isn't straight and he fell in love with his friend.

I hope this will win in this year's competition. We should show our big support for this very well created piece of work by voting for this song guys! LSS mode activated.

Presenting, the official music video



For PLUs out there, please help spread this video. :) Again, many thanks to Michael Pangilinan for his wonderful voice that helped give depth to the song.

Keep safe guys,

Skype Dilemma

You know when you chat someone really good and you gave him your skype username, only to figure out that you cannot see the guy anymore?! Why? Because of what I did.

I uninstalled my skype application on my phone because I was having problems downloading another app. When I was in Manila, I tried to install skype again but I can no longer log in on my account! If only I knew that I cannot log in anymore, I wouldn't uninstall that app. I've met and saved all of the legit and good guys on that app, and now, I can no longer have contact with them. Forever! Oh the agony. :(

Back to zero. Starting a new foundation again. I'm currently creating a new account again and hopefully, they will find me. Like a princess in the story Cinderella, or the fish named Nemo in the film Finding Nemo. By the way, for the information of everyone, I'm now back in Davao City, but hopefully I'll be back next week to have some 'sight-seeing' because I haven't experienced it during the recent trip.

To end this, I give a tip to my co-closet guy readers: Do not attempt to delete your skype account if you cannot memorize your username and password! Just don't let anyone touch your phone for your safety or, you can buy the LG smartphone wherein it has a different password for the guest called: "Guest Mode", for hiding the good stuff from your friends who wish to use your phone for a quick text or call.

Keep safe guys. It's a sad day indeed.
Lovelots,

Kilig the time

Killing the time. Urrgh. I'm here in Manila, yet I spent the whole day staying in the condo of my cousin! :( Sure there's air conditioning, WiFi access, and a great view of the city, but all I want is to explore the city and not stay inside a box like a lab rat. My cousin wouldn't accompany me, and even If I wanted to go, I don't know the streets and shortcuts of this city. So I'm left with no choice but to stay here also.

The gloomy feeling of this place just depresses me. I wanna see people. Meet people. Want to know their culture and activities. For once I wanna feel I am a different person here. Someone who I can be without any worries because no one knows who I am. Carefree and happy as I can be. :(

Nevertheless, the loneliness paid off because as I was watching movies on YouTube, I came across a Filipino Gay themed movie that is so beautiful and I must say, a piece of art! It's different from the usual indie gay films which by the way are 'cheap', with all the sex and flashing of their private parts. This movie combines politics, gender equality, religion, filipino culture, and essence of family altogether. The title of the movie?

MULI.

It's a 2010 film starring Sid Lucero and Cogie Domingo! Shet. Both of them are so hot in this film. You can clearly see character development when you watch this movie and the events just keeps getting better and better, keeping your eyes sticking at the monitor. "Tamang timpla kumbaga." And because of that, I decided to download it and deserved a spot on a "secret folder" on my laptop.

I swear if I have the money and I see this on DVD inside a CD Shop, I wouldn't hesitate to buy it. I don't care what other people think. This movie is AWESOME! It's like the older version of My Husband's Lover. You'll know what I'm talking about when you actually see the film for yourself. (Don't forget to erase the history though, if you're not using your own pc/laptop).

Enjoy watching this guys. Watch till the end. It's worth it. Hence the title of this post: Kilig the time. <3
