larawan para kay birthday cake

now that is weird, kelan pa naging living thing ang birthday cake. 29 yrs...29 yrs na akong buhay sa mundo. i laughed, i cried, i fell, i rose up to the occasion. all the mishaps, the good, the bad and the ugly. what's more to come... i always tell myself 'smite me'


things that is so like me:



#Aquarius dislike a lot of things. Just ask them. They will happily tell you
#Aquarians will keep smiling, and nobody knows that deep inside, they feel very lonely
When #Aquarius make up their mind about ending a relationship it will be permanent, so be sure it's what you want
#Aquarians hate people who break promises
#Aquarians would rather make someone cry with the truth instead of making them smile with a lie
#Aquarians have a habit of dozing off and day dreaming
#Aquarians are flirty but picky so consider yourself lucky if they choose you
Behind an #Aquarius smile is everything people will never understand

for another life yet to fulfill. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

more travels! long life! disposable income! and more more to come!

long overdue...

A blast from the past, last year i was practically all around the Philippines. From North to South I've been there; whether it was a travel w/ my mom or w/ friends. everything went so fast, met new people along the way and sever old ties from those i thought were my friends. nevertheless, it was a wonderful year to me!

here's a quick look of my fantastic 2011!

a time line of my travel from January to December:

From Ilocos Norte to Ilocos Sur to Ilocos Norte, Batangas Outing w/ my CITI friends, Batanes my first Love, Tanay hay.... , Bohol yeah Bohol , Surigao/Siargao and lastly my Baguio Trip.

Batanes, my first love. It has been a long time dream and i could never fathom the idea that i was able to go there. Despite the tsunami alert back in March, it didn't stop me from putting a halt to my jumping heart who fell in love with the place and people. I'll be back...

Last but not the least my last getaway for the year 2011...went to Baguio, i prefer to stay in camp john hay. The main city looked like Manila the only difference was the cool climate.

the view from mines view no more...

seriously?

someone lost her cam...

I already know what to expect this year. Coron is already booked as well as my Vietnam short stint.... oh well, let's see...

i'm thinking of the right time...in a matter of weeks, i'll be seeing you soon. i hope we can sort things out or we can just stay perfectly still in the relationship that we are in. indeed we will have lots of time to talk...  somehow, i'm excited and at the same time doubtful of what the outcome would be. i think you wouldn't blame me if i decide to see people, crazy as you might think. but i think i'm learning the ropes of the game. i don't want to get caught up in the travesty of our complicated situation....

Operator connect me to MARS

i gather all my guts, i finally messaged her after a week of just browsing her FB profile (shit i sound like an effin stalker) but that wasn't my intention. i was just browsing through it. i never thought that i would eventually, ask her random questions without sounding like a dork. so here how the conversation went:

================

again, i have this nostalgic feeling. it's like deja vu... i am now in the middle of different by ways. the never ending question of should i stay or should i go. mediocrity has now evolved to a come- what- may -attitude. I've done a lot during my stay, my travels and my food escapade. my alter ego taking too much of my life, this is not me. i haven't put priorities into perspective. i wish i was somebody else, but i can't do that. i have to live as it is. why do i stay? is it my way of thinking that " i may not fit for the job but i have the capacity to be in it" maybe i shouldn't stick to this way of thinking. 


this is affecting my health, i'm so exhausted mentally and physically. i'm dragging my feet (literally this time!) going to my routine life style. i commune more with nature, with my travels. meeting new people. finding new adventure all the time. that is who i really i am. i cannot keep up with the changing times. i am no longer the poster girl of flexibility. my constant paranoia, my pathological lying. can i just be honest with myself, just this once. but alas, the only thing that keeps me coming back is the monetary reward. I have drowned myself in the corporate whirlpool, having myself in the mercy of the capitalist pigs. 


help me now or i may never get out alive.

2011

what is new with 2011 except for the fact that my life long dream of going to Batanes finally is pushing through. I never expected that in the span of 3 years, i have sensed the fulfillment of traveling the country. I hope to visit more then after maybe south east asia. i'll take one day at a time, save up and all. Backpacking or for leisure travel, let my feet take me to places i've never been.


WOOOHOOO 2011!!! i have a lot of plans hopefully at least 3 things can be accomplished.

In the waiting line

Watch as the ground turns as dark as the shadows cast on them and I disappear…when will i stop using "i". where will i start? where will i go? things can never be the same as it is. i stare and watch you burn. you shouldn't have tried and you could have just moved on. but you stayed, i try to hold you and be at my side. but i am tired of running. tired of shedding tears for something that isn't worth it. 


When the time comes, i will catch the small glimmer of light and i would start writing again.
