Maybe one day;
When you’ve flown enough heights
to reach the skies you never knew existed;
When you’ve grasped the stars
and things you thought you could never comprehend;
When you’ve seen all the colours
that your big brown eyes can capture in your memory;
When you’ve had too many dead end conversations
with yourself in the middle of the night;
When...
Today, I am thankful for
8 hours of sleep and naps after you wake up; sakto-lang-pagdating-mo parking slots; for booties and bikes; for never ending debates and discussions on things I can’t even for the life of me comprehend; for little catch ups on stalls; playing mono deal after ten years; fast paced sign ups; funny campaign videos; things that make me look forward and loathe med school at the same time and...
Today, I am thankful for
Solitary walks in shopping malls, for Chickenjoy and candy; for finding things you thought would never be available again, things that cheer people up; for those heart melting smiles that send me to outer space (eeep); for empty Sec-A classrooms; for Kuya Bart who speaks nothing but the truth while cleaning; for plenty of hugs and zen humming noises; fluffy adorable dogs; the chance to have 8...
On Love and Other Feelings of Getting Us High
I had to read this article, ‘Love’ by Scott Peck for Theo and I must say I have never been so enlightened on the subject. By God, it is amazing.
Apparently, falling in love is different from loving. I can be in love with you and yet not love you and vice versa. Although it is necessary for one to truly love, falling in love is only the beginning of it. For when finally all those...
And when you’re needing your space To do some navigating I’ll be here patiently waiting To see what you find
WatchI’m not sure if I posted something like this already but the first day of school is over and I am in a very singy mood (and a very brave mood for posting this honestly) but anyway I missed George and he says hi. :)

Let’s get rich and give everybody nice sweaters and teach them how to dance.

poeticallystupid:
I want you to look for me when I’m gone.
I want you to remember how the weight of my body felt pressed against yours; I want you to remember and feel everything for me once I’ve forgotten.
When I’m gone, I want you to look for my scent on your sheets. The folds and creases will spell out my name and it will sound familiar to you. But you won’t remember the syllables or the...
Why would men so mismanage their lives? Greed, he thought, was what ruined so many. Greed—the desire to crowd into a moment all the enjoyment it will hold, to squeeze from the hour all the emotion it will yield. Men commit themselves when but half-meaning to do so, sacrificing possible future fullness of ecstasy to the craving for immediate excitement. Greed—mortgaging the...

Today my brother and I made a playdate (trying to use this term now) with our cousins. I woke up late unfortunately and had to rush leaving. Car was coding so we had to take a shuttle all the way to Ayala. It was so traffic but while in transit, I managed to catch the conversation of a man talking to some person about where they wanna spend their holidays. My thoughts? Can I join you?
Got to...

Has sunk to an all time low in virtue and is in desperate need of sensitivity and a lot of prudence. Borrowing a term, I have come to a point where I have an emotional quotient of a teaspoon. I need to be more sensitive. I need it now lest I keep stressing people out.
In other news: I have survived the week. Hello Christmas break; I thought you’d never come.

Favourite moment of the day (yesterday)
Sharing an air hi five with Doc Wong after quoting Yoda. “Do or do not, there is no try.”
We had a star wars moment. I can graduate happily now. :))
I am made of pure sugar and sunshine. I will make it through this. Fuck this I am more than this.

It’s so hard to unlearn skills. Specially when you’ve just acquired new ones and when you’re starting get the hang of things they get stripped off you and you’re forced to unlearn everything.
Learning new things are just as hard as unlearning them. And it’s even more difficult when your brain won’t let you unlearn things. My brain just won’t let me.
Mahirap man ay kakayanin.
Kung may tiyaga ay may nilaga.
Onting tiis para sa malaking ginhawa.
Marami pang oras matulog pag patay ka na, wag ngayon, magtrabaho.
Sabado palang Hell week na. Isang linggo nalang. Isa nalang at malaya na ko. Isa nalang. Lord, Wag mo kong iwan please. Isa nalang. Isa.
Challenge Accepted
According to Aristotle, Happiness is the reaching the full potential of man, happiness is when man is what he ought to be. Therefore I will be who I ought to be. I will strive and I will reach all that I can be. And I will be truly happy.
Sickness stay away. I’m trying to be strong here. Tempted to give in but no. I refuse to. I can do this on my own.

11.26.11: PULSE
Last Saturday was another chance to forget those academic blues for an hour or two (or three, I didn’t really count)
Before all these were taken though, Mea, Ronnah, Steph, Kat and I had a delight at 7-eleven to eat before the party. Poverty and lack of resources at its finest.
Forgive my obviously very giddy (and sabog) self.
Whatta Blast
Shelds, Jan, John, Mea, Ronnah, Me and...
From now on I will take good care of you.

I will always give to you.
All I am, is yours.”

The reason why I’m deathly afraid of death (what an excellent choice of words) is because I don’t know what happens to my thoughts. When I’m asleep, I dream and it seems to me that we all still think while we sleep and every single second of the day, my brain has something to say whether intended or not, solicited or otherwise. And I was thinking, this is what scares me about...
