JANUAR ERENO YAP

          JANUAR YAP ERENO, one of the most respected professor here in CEBU NORMAL UNIVERSITY , A Copy Editor of SUNSTAR DAILY  news paper, under the opinion columns. A Fellow of National Writers Workshop in  Dumaguete and  Iligan and also in Cornelio Faigao Memorial Writers' Workshop in Cebu under Cebuano Studies Center.

              As the creativity evolves around him, there is always an honor, with his "Ang Suhito" which won the  Don Carlos Palanca Memorial Awards for Literature last 2002, and his collections of works such as "Ang Aktibistang Gi-syphilis"was published in National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) under  New Authors Series 2005, one of the projects of National Committee on Literary Arts sa mga tuig 2001-2004.

              i have prepared a lot of questions for him and he answered it amazingly.

 what/who are your inspirations in writing?hehe plenty of them. the writers I have read, the experiences i had in life. the people around me. situations of inequality, social problems, etc.

As a writer have you experienced mind block? yes, that happens sometimes.you're probably talking about "writer's block." what i do is let the idea rest for a while. or maybe pursue the writing until i finally figure out clearly what i really want to write. Sometimes, it's better to write despite the lack of direction, because it challenges the subconscious, and you often end up surprising yourself.

why did you choose CNU as your school profession?

it started out as an accident. a friend of mine who was teaching in cnu resigned, and the department was in urgent need of a substitute. so i sort of applied, and i got accepted. at some point, it became interesting. i was anyway free during the day since my sunstar work takes place at night. i had options before since i also taught at the saint theresa's college. but i noticed that, with the kind of students in CNU, i thought i could not see these kind of students anywhere else--motivated, driven, etc.--and it is understandable because students here are mostly not so well off, and i thought it is where i feel most needed.

i think this is where "people empowerment" really takes place.

who are your favorite authors and what are your favorite books?

i love salman rushdie, orhan pamuk, milan kundera, yasunari kawabata, italo calvino, gabriel garcia marquez, jorge luis borges, stephen dobyns, charles simic, JM coetzee, albert camus, umberto eco. my favorite novel is alan lightman's "Einstein's Dreams", i love Borges's "Ficciones", Italo Calvino's "Cosmicomics"there's still a whole lot more, basin mangluod  to sila

i have heard that you were the one who invented the BISROCK title of Missing filemon, so how did it happen?

yeah, when i wrote about the band "missing filemon," i used the word first. i combined bisaya and rock, and i didn't know i was the first one who used it. it was the band's vocalist, Insoy, who said I invented the word. so i said, uh ok, if that's the case, then i coined the word.

can you give us a piece or a line that was created by you?PLACE

(A Short Story Januar Yap)

“I can’t make love to you now. Why do you insist?

I want to make love to you when you’re menstruating. It’s as though a part of me were caught in you and your blood were mine, pulsing out from a vein that belongs to us both. What do you feel then?

I feel the blood staining our bodies as if your hardness made me bleed, as if you had flayed my skin, and had eaten me, and I was drained.“

what can you advice to the students/youths who want to follow your steps? =))

for anyone who wants to grow as an artist or as a writer for that matter is just to open your eyes a bit wider to everything around you, don't be afraid to let your imagination fly. then read as many books as you can, don't discriminate music, listen to everything because each of them approximates a whole range of human emotions. don't be afraid to get hurt, or become lonely because those things sharpen the mind, and earns you wisdom  sometimes, when life get a bit unbearable or when you doubt yourself, a few drinks will do  then write, write, write...as john lennon said, "whatever gets you through the night, it's alright" hehe

SMILE

Send "Smile" Ringtone to your Cell

You´re better then the best
I´m lucky just to linger in your light
Cooler then the flip side of my pillow that´s right
Completely unaware
Nothing can compare to where you send me
Lets me know that it´s ok
Yeah it´s ok
And the moments when my good times start to fade

You make me smile like the sun

Fall outta bed
Sing like a bird
Dizzy in my head
Spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night

You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
Buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Oh, you make me smile

Even when you´re gone
Somehow you come along
Just like a flower poking through the sidewalk crack and just like that
                                                         You steal away the rain and just like that

You make me smile like the sun
Fall outta bed
Sing like a bird
Dizzy in my head
Spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night

You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Oh, you make me smile

Don´t know how I lived without you
'Cuz every time that I get around you
I see the best of me inside your eyes
You make me smile
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
Buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild

You make me smile like the sun
Fall outta bed
Sing like bird
Dizzy in my head
Spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night

the poems i secretely made... the weird? or the estoryahee thingee...=p

KUNG ANG GUGMA MADUGTA

by Janella Cavalida Abangan

Susama sa usa ka prutas, malata
Kung ang gugma sa panahon, madugta
Sa pulong nga gipadayag kansang gilaw
Unta dili na gayud mubalik pagkahilaw


Ang bunga sa panahon nagpabiling bunga
Nga susama sa wala katubo nga sanga
Yawyaw nga wala pa nahanaw
Subling tinuuray nga pagbati,ako napukaw



Gikulit pag-ayo ang perpekto nga hitsura
Daplin sa kahoyng puno sa himaya
ugat nga gitanom mo'ng walay pagpanaw
Sa udlot sa kadlawn nga puno sa kahidlaw

A PARAMOUR

by Janella Cavalida Abangan on Monday, December 27, 2010 at 8:51pm

 

I am a paramour and you are the heart breaker
you stole my heart for a little while here
and leave it harder alone somewhere
smiles and laughs made people think we're l♥ver

you said you are a great lover
but you are a wonderful heart breaker
youve hurt and turn your back from the paramour
and now my heart is fraught to woe under


when rainbows started to form
gray clouds begins to scatter all over
when my guitar plays its string
strings would break and become incomplete
when my hands starts to lay
the rain stops and birds sings lonely songs
when sunshine comes my life is still dark




i am really a paramour
but the destiny plays my heart and
hurts me more than everything in the world
and may be your one of those everything
....a heart breaker..
but still i am a paramour..
  i swear.♥

IKAW RA JUD

by Janella Cavalida Abangan on Thursday, December 16, 2010 at 10:59pm

 

Sa ngitngit nga kagabhion
nakita kong ang maanindut nga bituon
ug sa dihang daplin sa baybayon
nakahinumdom ako sa atung kagahapon

lig-on pa ang kagahapon
sa akong huna-huna ikaw ra gihapon
ambut kanus.a kaha kini mahuman
kay ikaw ra jud ang gipitik ani
sa akong gamayng kasing2

bata pa lang kita karun
pero imo nang gitimbakuwas
ang imong mga saad
ambut naunsa ba..
kalit kalang nausab..
ug hasta ako imo gibiyaan


pero nganong ikaw ra man jud gihapun
sama ka sa usa ka tubig
nag balik balik  lang..
hunong na ondo
kay kung makakita ako kanimo
sagpaon ta gyud tika
sa akong mga nagmingaw nga bukton!!

bee GAIN here..=)) A LIFE

Dream and give yourself permission to envision a You that you choose to be”

All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible.

Head stuck up in the clouds, it's time to come out from under.

Current friends in my life are there because they can stand to be around me, tolerate my weirdness, understand my craziness, and know more or less what to do during ups’n’downs.
They keep me grounded because they embody characteristics & personalities I can appreciate & admire, they keep me going with continued support in whatever ideas or adventures I may come up with.

Even though we may not speak every single day, or see each other every single week, when we get together, we know -it’s like nothing’s changed. And if something has changed, it’ll eventually be milked out one way or another.
    my life is not that perfect but Ive got all I'm living for..=)
