Shine like a Star*

Anxious. Worried. Confused.

But there is suffering in life, and there are defeats. No one can avoid them. But it's better to lose some of the battles in the struggles for your dreams than to be defeated without ever knowing what you're fighting for.

I know I could've done better. Nonetheless, I still believe that I've always done my best. :)

Of the 'what if's' and the 'what might have beens'

"It's been said that the saddest thing a man will ever face is what might have been. But what of a man whose faced with what was? Or what may never be? Or what can no longer be? Choosing the right path is never easy. It's a decision we make with only our hearts to guide us. But sometimes we find our way to something better. Sometimes we fight through the regret and remorse of our mistakes, our malice and our jealousy and the shame we feel for not being the people we were meant to be. And that's when we find our way to something better. Or when something better finds its way to us."

"At this moment there are 6,470,818,671 people in the world. Some are
running scared. Some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day. Others are just now facing the truth. Some are evil men, at war with good. And some are good, struggling with evil. Six billion people in the world. Six billion souls. And sometimes -- all you need is ONE."

October Fever.

Yay! It's the first day of October today! Two months to go before Christmas. Can't help but be excited. It's my favorite time of the year, ya know. :) Expect me to post my Christmas wish list here next time. Hahaha. Cheers for all the surprises this month may bring! :)

By the way, here's a quote from someone I considered as an inspiration. Truly, Hellen Keller had three good excuses to be a failure: she was deaf, blind, and she was a woman. But this extraordinary person proved that there is no excuse to fail or to be unhappy. Indeed, WE all deserve to be happy and to achieve our dreams in spite of everything. Let's keep that in mind. (Oh yes, I really will especially now that I have to start reviewing again for my exams. HAHAHA. :p) Toodles. :)

"Be of good cheer. Do not think of today's failures, but of the success that may come tomorrow. You have set yourself a difficult task, but you will succeed if you persevere; and you will find a joy in overcoming obstacles."

Geez, this storm's terrible. Several properties were damaged and worse, lives lost. I really felt sad hearing about families on their roofs with nowhere to go. Wala siyang pinili, mahirap man o mayaman. Even celebrities were severely affected and badly in need of help. It broke my heart watching the news and seeing dead bodies being recovered. WE weren't ready for this. Indeed, it is such a tragic tale.

Today I realized how blessed I am and my family. We weren't that affected. On a positive side, I can't deny how Ondoy gathered the Filipino people and keep that Bayanihan spirit alive. God, I thank you. I understand, You consider this as a wake up call for all of us. With strong faith I believe WE can surpass this.

Let us pray for each other. In times like this, it wouldn't hurt to help. In our own little way, we can effect change. :)

Sometimes, I just can't understand myself. I tend to be too sensitive and my mood swings are getting terrible these days. Geez, what's happening to me? I'm sorry. Thank you for understanding me when sometimes I know that you really don't.

I got my eyeglasses this afternoon. Yes, finally. After all the complaints I made to my parents about my poor eyesight and the pangungulit I got from him to have my check up done, I will wear this from now on. Oh, it feels weird. It's actually a consequence of spending loooong hours in front of the computer and washing my face after. Boo. Nonetheless, I can't deny that I can see things clearer now. Yay. Cheers to a nerdy looking me! :D

Suddenly I miss my friends. :/

It's been like years since our last gimik. Let's hang out soon, pleaaaase? Acads and other school stuffs, please be cooperative. I just want to be with these lovable kiddoes again. Be ready with your stories and I will be ready with mine. :)

Haircut :|

I am sick and tired with my long hair. Really.
I want to cut it short but I don't know if it will suits me.
May binabagayan lang daw kasi yun, said my roomie.
But, I waaaaaaant! Oh well, for a change. :)

Suddenly it's magic.

One morning I woke up and found myself in cloud 9. Geez, I'm inlove.

YUCK. You read that right. Hahaha. I have NEVER been this mushy. :p Apparently, I am inspired to write and update this blog again. But this time, not with some emo, full of drama stuffs. God has been so good in making surprises just when I thought I would never smile this way again. Yes, I didn't see it coming. WE didn't see it coming.

I didn't expect to fall for someone like him. He seemed to have so many girls and a typical chickboy to me before. Haha. We weren't even close and we rarely talk. If we did, it's just about the application process, the org and stuffs. Who would have thought that one day could bring us closer? Indeed, our lives took a 180-degree turn since then. And then we started texting and updating each other about something cool that has happened in our lives. We see each other more often than before and talk about anything under the sun. I really find him funny and madaldal. Yeah, so like me. Maraming random trivias. Turn on talaga. Haha. He has this innate ability to make me laugh when I'm not even in the slightest mood to smile. Wala siyang ere, pero mukhang maangas. Haha. We may not be in the same boat sometimes but we really complement each other. We're both cool (yes, conceited much? haha :p) and simple. I shared with him my dreams, my passions and he always have the ears to listen. I remember when I got sick and when I lost my phone, he was there and that made me feel so touched. We watched several movies together (which I think he researched about it beforehand. :p), we ate and became mayabang. Hahaha. He buys me stuffs and spoils me to the core. Lagi niyang sinasabi na ang laki ng tinaba niya since the day we started going out. Haha. Days went by and I enjoy his company. And suddenly, he has became a part of me.

The rest is history as they may say. Despite all of the complications, he didn't gave up on me. When I have mood swings, he takes my hands, pulls me through and understands, kahit walang paliwanag. I did doubt him and his intentions. I became affected by what others are saying about him. However, he has proven me otherwise. His love outweighed those negative vibes. I became so cautious, afraid of having the same treatment as before yet I didn't find it hard to trust him. Magic lang talaga! :p After all, hindi naman pala siya bad boy. Hahaha. He has taught me a lot of things. I learned how to trust. I learned how to believe in myself and appreciate my worth. He made me realize that i'm not always the second best. Haha. He brought back the happiness I once lost and put that smile back unto my face. He brought me out of my comfort zone. He taught me how to take risks, take chances. Above all, he has taught me how to love again. :)

Thank you for everything. Thank you for your patience and understanding. I know sometimes I am so insensitive especially when we fought over simple things. I don't know how far our love could take us. Now is all I know, now is all I have. But this one thing I am sure of. I love him today, tomorrow..and everyday of my life.

Happy 1st Monthsary, Love! Stay cool! :)
