I've only started working just a month ago but I feel like I've been in this company for a year. Not only the work load has made me feel this way but also the fun people I'm working with. Despite the distance and the long travel time, the sometimes rush hour MRT ride, I'm quite happy with work plus I love what I'm doing.

Come Christmas time, I will die because of all the work load for the seasonal hires we will be getting but I know that I can make it because of my awesome teammates and the occasional stress reliever of all time, FREE CHOCOLATE DRINKS/HOT CHOCO :)

Work has also been my escape from all the over thinking I'm doing during my bum days. It has also been my escape if I don't want to go home yet. I just wish I could feel better about that other thing. I don't want to get used to this, I don't want to always feel like this. A little care would really be appreciated, if you really do.

Be happy

Something to do.
Last March 2012, I went down the hill and unto the real world... Well not really. I have been bumming for a 3 months, exactly as I planned. I enjoyed my vacation with family and friends I love. This one was really a summer to remember and it's ending soon. I'm about to start working and I'm excited & scared at the same time. I'm excited to finally have more independence in my life and gain some learning experience. At the same time, I'm scared to disappoint myself and make mistakes but what's the point of learning without mistakes, right? So this Friday, I will have my first MRT rush hour ride :) Also, I will be working in a field I am really planning to work in, Human Resource. Although I am unsure on what will happen, I know that I will be happy because I have something to do that I like.

Someone to love. 
PS: May contain a lot of cheesy-ness.
As some of you may know (for those who follows me on Tumblr), I am in love and very happy. I swear, last May 9, 2012, we were infinite ♡ Cheesy but pretty much... yeah. Not what I expected but I know that what I have now is something I am very grateful for. He may not be the perfect boyfriend but he is perfect for me. Nothing really matters much if you love the person and I totally accept all the imperfections in our relationship 'coz I swear, I'm also not a perfect girlfriend. The memories and love we share, I will forever cherish. Although the future still awaits for our relationship and a lot will still happen, right now, I am happy :)


Something to hope for.
I have been a volunteer for Gawad Kalinga for quite some time. I started from my Youth for Christ days and my heart never left Gawad Kalinga (GK). GK has a dream that the Filipinos will be out of poverty in 2024. Doubtful? I'm not, together with millions of volunteers all over the world (Filipino or not) Yes, even foreigners believe in this vision and dream and GK does not discriminate anyone as long as you have a heart of a Filipino and for the Filipino people. (Some foreigners are more Filipino than Filipinos, if you know what I mean). I am excited and hopeful for a first world Philippines and together, I know that we can do this.

Mr. Brightside


This is a brilliant ad, especially during this time where all we see are bad and depressing news everywhere in the media. Personally, it made me think about life and how I view it (especially during this time where I make everything a problem bwahahaha). I always feel like "pasan ko ang buong mundo" but in reality, I have a very happy and blessed life. I'm just looking at the wrong side of the world that's why I'm feeling this way. This ad reminded me to look at the brighter side of life, where stolen kisses, crazy people, good people and love exists and it is what's more important than wars, rallies and  disasters. 


It is just so amazing that one simple ad like this can make a huge impact on my life. Ads like this make me believe that the media can still be relied upon for something inspiring. So I would like to congratulate Coca Cola for this wonderful idea :)

Ilocos adventure

After 5 long years, my Ilocos trip with high school friends finally pushed through. The happiness before leaving for Ilocos was priceless. 

I can definitely say that IT IS MORE FUN IN THE PHILIPPINES, especially with friends around. 
After an 8 hour trip :|, we arrived Vigan then had an awesome tour riding a kalesa with a horse name Angel (who is gay and it has a pink braid, super cutie patootie). Learned so much from all the museums we want. I really appreciated the old/ancient vibes the houses have... although it's quite scary. Dinner at Cafe Leona, a nice but old looking restaurant. Food was okay, company with friends were awesome :) THEN IT RAINED :(

Someday is now

Seven long years ago, I thought that my world has come to an end. Stupid mistakes, crazy actions and unreasonable calls were made. Those were the dark days that I would never forget but I would also forever treasure. That's what made me who I am today. When he left, he clearly left me scarred and devastated for life. "Trusting would never ever be easy again.", I thought to myself. On that moment, I really thought that I would rather kill myself than trust another guy again with my heart.

Now, I am seven years stronger and I can finally say that it was worth the wait :) Different guys came but never stayed but this one guy who is making me happy right now is definitely special and amazing. 


It was definitely worth the wait and with this guy, I am sure that he'll be staying for a long time :)
