It's awkward when it is valentines

Image
( Forgive me for the photos that do not seem to match the theme, but they are lovely. haha! ) I have been single for a long time now. It does not really bother me at all, actually it is a lot more fun than being in a relationship. No, I am not bitter or still in the process of nursing a heartache--I am just not looking for trouble at the moment. I find it funny to have myself write a valentine's note on the blog but I feel like I need to. For one, I have never seen my Facebook flooded with all kinds of romantic, cheesy stuff. It is somewhat creepy because I feel like: "Am I really the only one who does not make a big deal out of February 14?". Oh, well maybe couples in love would never understand such dilemma. Secondly, I am also wondering if love should only be celebrated on certain days and is manifested through chocolates, flowers and fancy dates. I mean, I believe that in true, genuine and authentic love ( imagine the abuse of synonyms ), it is celebrate...

The art of getting by

Image
Hey you guys! How have you been? I missed this blog, my readers and everything I used to do in here. I missed life, generally. How have I been, you ask? I've been doing fine I guess. I am getting by with my life, school and work. I think. Or maybe not. Actually, my life is on the rocks right now. I feel bad and I feel miserable and sad. I do not really want to dwell on the negative, but if I do not let this out, I might explode one of this days and I might never be sane again. I really cannot pinpoint when this feeling started, but I feel so lost for the past two years of my life. When I was 17 years old, I thought I had figured my life out. I thought I was so straightforward on my goal and firm on my destination. I do not know what happened midway that I took a whole new different foreign direction and I am struggling finding my way out. After March last year, I just realized that I do not know where to go next. All I know was that I want to be rich, travel the world ...

Grown up Christmas

Hola! December has arrived and we all know what that means...it is PARTY TIME!! And I just had the chance to take a break from reading last Sunday when my mom brought me to the Christmas party of the networking company she is part of. So with such short notice, I have not prepared a good outfit fit for the occasion and so I scrambled my closet to find a Christmas-y ensemble.  Max GXL party was held at the BIG Hotel, a new building just near Parkmall. The hotel was quite impressive because they were able to make the place look spacious despite being located in the heart of the city. they even managed to create a small veranda with a view on the second floor. And the food? Really delicious. I mean, I do not know about you but when you are hungry and you have not eaten for a long time (talk about diet), the sight of a lechon, lasagna, chicken shepherd pie and everything on the table is like a feast already. I had two rounds though (which explains why I look bloate...

One and Twenty

                                                                     One and Twenty I was one when I first saw the world It was nothing then but a series of twist and turns I turned seven Everything gets even You play, you fall You get muddy and crawl Life was carefree at ten Sweets where just chocolates  from way back when Problems were only found in math Solutions were pretty easy to catch Then I was fifteen for a moment Hating on the world's torment Everything was rebellious for a teen that is curious You thought you run the world Only to find you are easily fooled Twenty came in a rush Next thing I knew I was graduating in a hush You thought you would taste freedom Adult world here I come Reality then strikes you in the face Hey this is not an easy place...

Someone New

"Love with every stranger, the stranger the better."| hozier It was one Friday afternoon that I decided to cut my long and wavy  hair. It was not a Eureka moment  because I have planned on cutting it since then. If you ask me why? Beyonce did it. Emma Roberts did it. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley did it. And for the love of Hozier, yes I did it. Well not exactly, part of the reason why I did such thing because my idols did it. Yeah, I just did it for the trend. Nah, just kidding Many people believe that when a girl cuts her hair or changes her hairstyle, she is going through something dramatic in her life and wants to forget it. But I am not exactly going through something dramatic or heartbreaking but I am going through a major self reinvention. Okay, so I sound like I am a scientist doing some experiment. But no really, in my pursuit of becoming the best that I can be I reckoned that I should change some old and bad habits.  I badly need this change becau...

Loving, Losing and Moving On

Remember that time when you first had your heart broken? The time when you thought everything was perfect and you found out what a douche he is? The kind of pain that felt right through your heart. Yes, imagine that scenario when you find out that something important to you is gone.  Today, I was so happy because I finally am in the last pages of the book I am currently reading. I was in the brink of excitement knowing that I will be going through my mini bookshelf again and decide what to read next. Only to my surprise that my bookshelf is infested with termites. Yes, TERMITES! They were all over my books and they were feasting on it like it was some kind of a buffet. At first, it was just one book, not until I went through my whole shelf to find out that they have already eaten 1/4 of my collection.  That moment, I knew of the word broken heart. Seeing those books slowly being rotten away by such pests, eating them like they are some kind of grass, I felt my hea...
