Someday he'll come...

It is not the image you would see nor the song you would hear,
But rather an image you see though you close your eyes and a song you hear though you shut your ears.
It is not the sap within the furrowed bark, nor a wing attached to a claw,
But rather a garden for ever in bloom and a flock of angels for ever in flight.  
On Beauty
 Kahlil Gibran

Beauty, they say, is in the eye of the beholder. Xian Lim looks beyond physical beauty and claims he is enamored with Kim  more for her verve and personality .  

Surrounded by a bevy of beautiful women in the modeling and showbiz world Xian moves around in, he has grown to love Kim for the happiness he feels being with and around her. 

Simple, ever-smiling and natural, Kim scintillates and radiates this aura of sweetness and goodness that attracts young and old, big and small, men and women and at times some young man like Alexander Xian Cruz Lim Uy.

Xian Lim at the early stages of his courtship on KrisTV addressing Kim at the urging of show host Kris Aquino 12-08-11)

At the end of the show,  Xian gave Kim a message. "Gusto ko lang malaman mo na ang lahat ng ginagawa ko, it's not because naandito ang show or people are telling me to do it. (I just want you to know that everything I'm doing, I do, not because we're at a show or people are telling me to do it.) It's straight from the heart. Bakayou're having doubts na 'maybe, he is being showbiz.' It's not like that. I'm sincere sa friendship natin. I'm happy and I'm comfortable around you. Masaya kang kasama. Sobra. (You're really a joy to be around.)

Xian has been consistent in saying, "I just want to make her ( Kim) happy; make her feel special" from the start, six months into it, Xian is still at it. 

                          CTO - Xian on being happy seeing Kim happy.

at the presscon for Ina, Kapatid Anak.  

Kim is not entirely impervious to Xian's romantic gestures.  They say the opposite of love is indifference; certainly Kim is not indifferent, has never been such; Kim has always been appreciative of Xian who, true to his nature, showers Kim with expressions of his affection and Kim reveling in the attention has revealed that Xian is now the man closest  to her heart.  

Eight months after his nationwide confession of the nature of his pursuit of Kim, Xian is now making inroads into Kim's heart.  Kim has acknowledged it and open to the press about it; open about defending their relationship as real and not for show to the press; open about liking Xian on his Instagram photos; open at disclosing she goes out with him, chaperoned and at times unchaperoned; open at saying they are not dating anyone else; that they have been introduced to each other's friends and families.  From their action, we can glean that they like each other, like each other's company enough to spend almost all of their waking  hours outside of work together.

CTO - Xian Lim, the man closest to Kim Chiu's heart                      

“It should be a privilege to be able to say "I love you" to someone. It shouldn't be something people say just because they feel like it. A privilege that is earned. They say    you have to earn the right to be loved; no, love is unconditional, if you love someone, they don't have to earn it. But. The right to tell someone that you love them? That has to be earned. You have to earn  the right to be believed.” 

― C. JoyBell C.  

Alexander Xian Cruz Lim Uy comes a-knockin' with a composition, Ako'y Sa Yo Lamang; declarations on TV, dedications on   Radio with the song, God gave me you; life-sized Teddy Bear, flowers that  fill a Van;  Christmas Harana of the song, You by the Carpenters; Salmon from  Alaska straight from Alaska and delivered  to Kim's door from airport; Dinners,  Concerts,  Church Visits;  Instagram photos, Texts, Calls, Home Visits; Horse-back Riding, Oval runs, gifts;  bonding  with and gifts to Chiu family and household; Love Rose Tree; Missing you photos from HK  8-23rd horseback-riding  after an all-night taping, etc. etc....with the EFFORT ...I can safely say, Xian Lim has earned the privilege to say I LOVE YOU to Kim and earned the "right to be believed." 

That Xian was able to knock and enter the door to Kim's heart is a feat that rivals the Olympics in accomplishment, at least to Xian. Here is a woman who has sworn off men from the time she was interviewed at PBB in 2006 at age 16 and in fairness, had the courage to love again.  The second try still did not do well.  An unwilling player in the game of love from the start, it took her two years to finally bring the good news to friends, that yes, she is ready and yes, her heart is now ready for  a new love.

The actor was also asked for his reaction on Kim’s admission in a separate interview that she considers Xian as the closest guy to her. “Nakaka-touch.Siyempre di ba masaya kasi siya naman ang palagi kong kasama,” replied Xian sheepishly. “Kilala na siya ng mga mom ko, mga kaibigan ko and same thing on her side din naman. Sana magustuhan nila ako mabuti naman akong tao.” The actor may not be showy about courting Kim but their friends attested to this, including Kim, who also revealed that Xian is also making effort to win the approval of Kim’s family. When asked if he will continue on pursuing Kim, Xian replied, “Ang sasabihin ko lang, basta andito lang ako para sa kanya. If ever meron siyang kailangan, if ever meron siyang problema, andito ako para problemahin ‘yun kasama siya.” http://www.push.com.ph/features/8232/xian-lim-on-kim-chiu-siya-naman-ang-lagi-kong-kasama/ 

Now we are up to speed.  Kim and Xian have become closer today compared  and according to a non-biased source, somebody with fresh eyes who assert that the two  are for real and  are "Far from reel"; going into the KimXis Thread 21 to post:

Lucky Kim Chiu. 


Oh, Kim Chiu, she's so simple yet so beautiful. There's no need to elaborate how beautiful she was that day. She's just so perfect. She's beyond that. 


BAGAY NA BAGAY SILA.


I do have pictures with them. I respect their privacy, so don't expect that i'll post it here, and besides, malalantad din ang mukha ko. hahaha!


Ito lang ang masisigurado ko sa inyo...


"THEY ARE REAL.....FAR FROM REEL..."


At sa lahat ng naniniwalang SILA na, I'm with you guys, take it from me... i've seen "IT" with my own eyes.

in Subic

CTO - Kim, Xian, Lakam in a rare shot granted to El Kabayo management 

 8-23-12 same day Watashi visited the place.

This facility is a replica of an old western town directly out of an American cowboy movie. If you enjoy watching John Wayne and Clint Eastwood in their glory days of Tinsel Town, you will feel as if you are on the set of one of their productions when you visit El Kabayo.

Here you will find mock-up recreations of an old-west general store, saloon/restaurant, post office, trading post, hotel, telegraph office, bank drugstore and more.

                             

There was a time when Xian did not figure in any of Kim's photos in El Kabayo.  Kim has learned to ride to destress.  She finds the place with its wide open space and with the wind in her face, I would think, relaxing.  

Then Xian came into the picture literally and figuratively, albeit, unrecognizable.  He was a phantom rider, not mentioned nor referred to.  That was the time perhaps when Xian was just starting to know the family.  Kim and Xian have  been going out with friends and chaperoned dates to dinners, the movies, concerts, to jogs, to Church , finally meeting each other's family then to Kim's inner sanctum...communing with nature and the horses in Subic along with Kim.  Xian has arrived.

Road Map

Directions to Anvaya Cove: 1. Take the North Luzon Expressway. 2. Then take SCTEX Exit (Subic Clark Tarlac Expressway) 3. Take Subic Exit 4. Enter Subic via Subic-Tipo Toll gate 5. Once inside Subic, follow the Anvaya road signs. If there aren't any, follow the signs to “Morong Gate”. 6. Keep driving until you reach Morong Gate. 7. Just stick to the road until you reach the entrance of Anvaya Cove.

"  - Watashi...8-23-12.

Everyone who has seen or met Xian lim in person is one in saying that his pictures do not do him justice at all.  One KimXi Fan group member Embou enjoined everyone  to throw any picture of Xian away as it is just a poor representation of how he looks at close range and in living color.  Without that fair warning it  would have been hard for me to take  Watashi's effusive remarks at the sight of Xian.  A picture is the next best thing, I don't believe anyone of us ever threw a picture of Xian away.

Lucky or blessed?   More blessed than lucky.  Kim was only wanting her new soap My Binondo Girl to fly high in the ratings game and for her  to survive the year in the first series without her perennial love team.  

Kim got more than what she asked and prayed for.  She found a friend; someone who made it easy to survive the day, the year; who made her smile again as smiles should be; to enable her to say yes, indeed, there is life after Gerald Anderson!  God is good!  

       

          CTO - Kim and Xian...all's right with our world...life is good, smile.

     IKA taping break and sporting identical jackets given by fans (8-31-12). Night before the Star Magic Ball.  Red Carpet here we come!

CTO - Put your head on my shoulder - Paul Anka.

How amazing  that Kim who receives all this adulation from a "Super Guapo" Xian Lim is keeping her cool and in her interviews prefer to take things slow and  intent in knowing Xian more beneath  his   gorgeous exterior.  She says things like "may hitsura naman sya", seemingly downplaying Xian's good looks, keeping him grounded.  

Xian, too, has always contended that what attracted him to Kim is her personality;  Kim whose effervescent charm stretches  till wee  hours in the  morning of work; whose good nature persists even if the taping goes all the way from early evening to midmorning of the  following day.  

According to Xian, Kim is friendly to everyone, nice, sweet--in fact according to Xian, Kim is the "definition of sweet".   Kim Chiu    never   acted like   Kim Chiu, the young superstar who could lose her cool and  temper   from       lack of rest and sleep. Xian never saw that in her in the long months they were together taping My Binondo Girl, making him wonder what she's made of and making him  fall like a ton of bricks; he who never expected or wanted to.

Xian has added he finds Kim's "very pretty smile" and "very beautiful body" sexy; where Kim also mentioned Xian's "eyes" and "chest" were the parts of Xian's body, she found sexy in a questionnaire at Vice Ganda's Ganda Gabi Vice - Season 2 Opening KimXi guesting.  "Caring, thoughtful, napakabait, hopeless romantic", says Kim of Xian. Para kay Kim Chiu, ang pagiging consistent ang isang ugaling nagpapalapit sa puso niya sa kaparehang si Xian Lim.http://www.pep.ph/news/35109/kim-chiu-reveals-courtship-strategy-of-xian-lim-ldquoyung-family-ko-sinusuyo-niya-so-nakakatuwa-lang-yung-ganung-feelingrdquo They belong to a Mutual Admiration Society of two members - Kim and Xian.

Non-fan Watashi has a good eye, unbiased and with no preconceptions, she just declared to everyone interested that Kim and Xian are suited to each other in their physical aspects.  I will just give each a name  based on Watashi's superlative description of Kim and Xian...Aphrodite (Greek goddess of love and beauty) and Adonis (Greek god of manly good looks). 

    CTO  - It's in the genes!  Matching smiles and good looks 

Teenage Kim and Xian.  Blue is the color of the hour.

CTO - even in their teleserye still pics...Kim and Xian are looking
Bagay na Bagay   - AT WORK.

CTO -  Kim and Xian - Matching good looks.   AT PLAY.

To us KimXis who have come from the stardust of My Binondo Girl, clinging to the Mr. and Mrs. Wu characters of the two; our eyes  looking at Kim and Xian with rose-tinted, love-tinted lenses  at times question ourselves, are we like wannabe fairy godmothers  extending our magic wands outside My Binondo Girl to  make our dreams and hopes for the  two real; being sensitive to the subtle nuances of their every move?

That Kim and Xian or Xian and Kim  had their own Angels waving the Wand of Love over them  to free them from their years of emptiness; rewarding their hopes for happiness borne by  hearts that beat in unison with each other; lifting each  from his/her   own sad, mournful past to  meet in some blissful place where True Love dwells.  This  is a grace of God, we could only hope and pray for and by God's grace, has been granted!  God is  good!  Thanks be to God!   

Kim and Xian, you have arrived in that blissful place; looking for love in a hopeful place, you  found each other, in God's grace and will!

Kim Chiu peeved by accusation that her relationship with Xian Lim is just for show

Kim and Xian caution the KimXis.  "Huag pangunahan".  Do not put the cart before the horse.  Since they are fond of horses, might as well use this analogy.  They are asking us KimXis to contain our giddiness, not to label what we see, not to say anything before they do.  Okay, fair enough,  but can we allow the KimXis to document their thoughts on twitter and twitpics and share with   everyone who does not have the privilege to be on close encounters with Aphrodite and Adonis?

@IssaCurious @annalynm28 yes! hindi talaga mapaghiwalay~ always looking for each other~ hehehehe <333

I put quite an emphasis on Watashi's post since she is a non-fan.  This was the first time she had seen Kim and Xian and based on what she saw she drew some conclusions which matched mine/ours (KimXis).

We, KimXis,  are wishing for  Kim and Xian  to end up together for real.

For a guest pexer to disclose to us   what we have been hoping and wishing for since the two evolved from their My Binondo Girl characters  into plain Xian and Kim, our dream just turned into reality in some huge fashion that day.  This  despite the elusiveness of the principals, Kim and Xian, and their caution, which we KimXis have  heeded, that "Huag silang pangunahan", not to rush them and for us to just "enjoy the moment (s) with them.

We are now enjoying the moment(s) as Kim and Xian asked us to with some glint in our eyes, sharing in the sparkle of their own eyes, their glow.

Thank you, Watashi.  I can say, Watashi must have fallen in love before and just recognized the signs in our Kim and Xian.  It takes one to know one. Ah, love!

    Blue Moon shines around the world. 8-31-12 (U.S. time)

NASA photographer Bill Ingalls, who was in Cincinnati to take pictures during Apollo 11 moonwalker Neil Armstrong's family memorial ceremony on Aug. 31, snapped this picture of the "blue moon" hanging over the Queen City's skyline. 

Blue moon is the appearance of the third full moon in a season with four full moons. It is never really blue. The term has also been used to refer to the second full moon in a month.^[1] The average lunar cycle is 29.530589 days, there are 365 days in a solar year, 365 divided by 29.530589 days equals about 12.36 lunar cycles in a solar year. In the gregorian calendric cycle, there are 12 months (the word month is derived from moon). In addition to those twelve months representing full lunar cycles, each solar calendar year contains roughly eleven days more than the lunar year of 12 lunations. The extra days accumulate, so every two or three years (7 times in the 19-year Metonic cycle), there is an extra full moon. Lunisolar calendars have rules about when to insert such anintercalary or embolismic ("leap") month, and what name it is given; e.g. in the Hebrew calendar the month Adar is duplicated. The term "blue moon" comes from folklore. Different traditions and conventions place the extra "blue" full moon at different times in the year.

Tonight, a  Blue Moon shines in the night sky.   Tonight also is the night of the 2012 Star Magic Ball at the Rizal Ballroom at Shangrila Makati.  The same  moon might weave its magic and two people will finally say to the world, yes, our love has come.

                                 CTO - The Man I love -

The Man I Love

When the mellow moon begins to beam,
Ev'ry night I dream a little dream,
And of course Prince Charming is the theme,
The he for me.
Although I realize as well as you
It is seldom that a dream comes true,
For/To me it's clear
That he'll appear.

Some day he'll come along,
The man I love
And he'll be big and strong,
The man I love
And when he comes my way
I'll do my best to make him stay.

He'll look at me and smile
I'll understand ;
And in a little while,
He'll take my hand ;
And though it seems absurd,
I know we both won't say a word

Maybe I shall meet him Sunday
Maybe Monday, maybe not ;
Still I'm sure to meet him one day
Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day

He'll build a little home
Just meant for two,
From which I'll never roam,
Who would - would you ?
And so all else above
I'm waiting for the man I love.
