No prayer is unanswered: God bless, Mindanao.

What can be more heart-breaking than seeing what our fellowmen are going in through down South especially this Christmas time? Yes, to most of us we are all excited for the coming Christmas and eager to get our gifts and new set of clothes, etc. But to some Filipinos, this will be the most depressing Christmas perhaps. If you have no idea on what I am talking about, go to Google and search for ''typhoon Sendong''. Filipinos down South (Cagayan de Oro and Iligan City) experienced one of the most devastating moments of this year. What breaks my heart more is that it happened on Christmas time. I can not imagine how my fellowmen will be able to overcome those. I can not imagine how they will still try to be positive and move on. It's sad. I know, we all know, that no matter how much we struggle, everything will be alright because everything happens for a reason. We lost not just one hundred lives but more than 600-700 lives and still many are missing. How heart-breaking it is to some families to lose their loved ones this Christmas. They need help.

Heart-breaking, isnt it? Now tell me, what is your struggle this Christmas? Want me to tell you mine?

My mom will not be coming home for Christmas but  still..she manages to send us what we need, more than what we need. My brother, Kuya Frank who works in Dubai, will not be home aswell, but still manages to give his family what they need. In short, I wont have a complete family this Christmas. I havent had any complete family for  more than 5 years (I'm not sure but its more than that). But.. I know they are in good hands, they have good set of clothes, they have someone abroad to comfort them. Well atleast, that is the most important thing. But those families in Mindanao, mothers and fathers lost their child, some lost their friends, a lot died and many families share the same sorrow of losing the people that they love this time of the year..--- no more complete family. No more days to look forward to as a complete family. 

I dont have the most beautiful clothes this Christmas, and I struggle getting new clothes. BUT, what can be more struggling than losing your home? Yes, its tragic. Our fellowmen down south lost their homes and other possessions brought by this typhoon. By losing their home, they lost their clothes,appliances, etc. some had their cars broken, establishments were affected. 

Now, if you think you have the biggest problem in the world, THINK. You are too blessed. We are too blessed. If we cant send them clothes, food, etc, the least thing we can do is to pray for them. Its a tough time for them. Remember, we've been really blessed this year and a prayer wont hurt us. May our fellowmen see light in the toughest time of their lives. Let us pray for them. No prayer is unanswered. 

.No matter how bad we see life, no matter how we feel devastated, I'm sure God has His own reasons. God Bless, Mindanao. God bless our nation.

Hello, Misa De Gallo!

Time check: 5:45am of Decembe 16.

This has got to be one of my favorite mornings. I woke up early. Yes, early as 2:30 in the morning and did prep up for the first day of Misa de Gallo (Simbang Gabi). I had to take a cold bath to keep me going. As soon as I got nearer at the church, I felt this little excitement. Yes, it's Christmas time!! I love to see families, groups of friends, couples, older people going to church at four o'clock in the morning. The church was full, well it has always been every Misa de Gallo. I am excited to complete the 9-dawn masses not because I wanted to make a wish but because of my heart is into doing it. I grew up attending the Simbang Gabi here in our chapel but it was four years ago when I decided to attend the dawn masses, and I got hooked into it. I got a couple of wishes before, and with those wishes I promised to make it a point (if I can and my schedule will permit me) to attend the 9-dawn masses. I see it as time to give back and ofcourse, sacrifice something. Even if I get to attend it alone, I still get to feel the spirit of Christmas. Same old feeling. 

I've been very blessed this year, my prayers were answered. I graduated on time and got my diploma, I passed the Board Exam (Take One), I got my first job and was paid very well, I quit work to continue my journey as a nurse !Plus, I got my license this year. What else can I ask for? I'm contented with my gadgets, with the way I look..with who I am. I have a beautiful and supportive family, I have a boyfriend for four yeaes who always supports and loves me and his family loves me too, I have my real friends around, I have my nephews, my Lolo is in a good state,&& even if my mom couldnt come for Christmas I know everything will be okay and I know there's a perfect timing. I know I'll be in the hospital soon. What else? 

I dont consider of making a wish this time. I know God works in mysterious ways. I want to spend 9dawns, thanking Him. When I look at families, I picture myself with my future kids and husband attending the 4am mass. I picture my family with Mama, Papa, my siblings, in laws and nephews. I see a beautiful world. 

Its also The National Youth Day. To the youths, just in case you get to read this: Please enjoy your life. Boyfriends, Girlfriends, they come in perfect timing. Dont look for it. While you're on school, enjoy being a student. Stop bullying others. Enjoy. Enjoy your gifts, and most of all, love yourself. Extend your hands to those in need. Go to parties but study harder. Respect others. When you get to be with others who dont have the same belief as yours, repect them. Pray and be closer to God. Dont act too much like adults, enjoy it. Dont waste a part of your life that you can never get back. Life is so good. Its beyond beautiful. You have to see it. Again, love yourself, enjoy and share your gifts, and build a relationship with the Lord. Kanya kanya naman tayo ng trip eh, basta sana wag mo lang sayangin isang portion sa buhay mo na di mo na mababalik. 

As for me, as a youth, I do the same. Life is good and we have an awesome God.

I hope we all enjoy this time of the year :)

So I guess I'm done here. Thanks to my hot choco from Mcdo for keeping me company while writing! 

Love,

the little kid

Bon Voyage!

I just got home from NAIA Terminal 1. The Vergara brothers are leaving supposedly by 12am but their flight will be 4hours delayed. Anyway, I just want to share our last photos of this year. I am really excited for him and his family. Bon Voyage, Baby and see you on January 9! 

Enjoy your 3 and a half weeks vacation in London, baby!

I'm sure this will be one of your happiest holidays ever!

I miss you already but I am more excited for you!

May God bless their trip! Yay!

Killing Time!

Hi there! Its December 12 already! Time flies! It is 2:32 in the morning and yes, I'm still up and I just finished our anniversary video. Since Patten and I wouldn't be able to spend our 4th year anniversary together, we thought of making a video of our memories, of reasons why we made it this far. 4th Year anniversary will be on the 29th of this month. Goodnews is, Patten and his brother Kuya Patrick will be spending the holidays in London with their family! Ya-hoo! I am just so glad for them. Family comes first, right? And we really prayed for this. They'll be leaving on Wednesday so hoping for a smooth flight! Anyways, I'll be posted the video soon! (still publishing it though).

How was your week by the way? I had a tiring but fun one! I did a little Christmas shopping, and tried to spend my weekend with Patten and his family because I won't be seeing him for more than three weeks. I'm not really sad because I really want him to spend this favorite season of the year with his family☺

By the way, my Kuya Doods, my nephew Dominic & my sister-in-law Ate Melba with a beautiful baby in her tummy will be coming home for Christmas!! Yehey! Although Mama & my Kuya Frank wouldnt be able to make it, we should still celebrate Christ's birth! There's Skype & everything is possible now ☺

On the other hand, I am dog-ass sleepy but I really want to finish this so I am keeping my fingers crossed. *he-he*. I feel like writing this makes me a high school student. 

So see you on my next post! Have tons to write. See you & Goodmornight (Ha-ha)☺

Thank You & Goodbye.

The rain is pouring hard outside and I just got home. I have a news for you, TLKC! I'm cleared at work. Yes, what you're thinking is right. I decided to quit on working in the Call Center and now I can finally say ''Thank you for the memories, Alorica.'' I've been trying to clear everything up since Friday but there were some miscommunications with the sched, and I also tried it last night. By the way, I was with Merrill who also decided to leave. Anyway, even if we waited from 7:30-11:40pm, we're happy to know that we're done. Really done. 

While waiting, we stayed at the pantry and gave some of the people I met there loads of hugs. Gaah, I missed them. I really did. It was so nice to know that you were loved somehow. Even if I only spent 3 months there, I really felt I was loved. Even up to the point when people knew that we decided to leave, they still showed how happy they are for us.Wow. I must say that it was really a fun and worth learning experience. I guess what really made my stay in the company worth remembering was the people that I got to be with. I know this maybe too personal, but I had my own reasons and I want to share w/ you guys the few lines in my letter to the company.

'' ...............I came up to the point where I can not really go to work because I realized that I can not really do something when my heart is not into. I am thankful for the company for the chance that you have given me from the very beginning. Your company has been really nice to me as well as the people that I got to work with. With that, I want to be always at my best when I'm dealing with the  customers but I realized I can no longer do the job. I want to give my customers the best of customer service but it was hard when your heart is not into it and I never want to bring down the company that has put a lot of trust in me. 


From the moment I got here, I have always been grateful to Alorica. In return, with full honesty I want to let you know that I can no longer continue the work that I started. From the time that I left the company, I got the chance to rest and think harder. Now, I am more determined to continue my journey as a Registered Nurse. 


I will be forever grateful of Alorica and its employees for all the things I have learned here that I will never forget. ''


Knowing that everything's okay, I know I have to move on and continue my journey as a Registered Nurse. 


Working in the call center taught me alot of things. You have to learn how to play the game so you'll win. In my case, I realized it was enough for me to play the wrong game and it's time to play the game that I love with passion.


To the people that I met there from my CLIP family to PST and A-Bay,( to my trainers, co-trainees), to the employees who were very nice to me, to the supervisors who have been really nice, qa, my supervisor and the members of our team, to the people in the pantry and security, clinic people, hr people, THANK YOU. Also, to the customers that I had the chance to talk to, thank you! It was my pleasure to serve you. 

PS. I'm grateful and i will always be.

PPS. I've got tons of good news but let's take it slow. 

PPPS. Remember this? God answers in three ways. 

First, He says Yes and gives you what you want. 

Second, He says no and gives you something better.

Third, He says Wait and gives you the best. 

Thank You and Goodbye, Alorica.

Friday with old friends.

Hi. How did you spend your Friday?

I woke up past 10 in the morning and read my friend's text message saying that we'll meet up at 1pm and head out to the office. I immediately wrote and typed in my letter to my previous company. Fast forward to 1pm, I met up with Merrill and I was really really glad to see him again!!! We had our letters printed and headed to the office. The guard was of course, very welcoming. Unfortunately, the HR dept was on a lunch break so Merrill thought of going on the floor and we'll try out our luck if we'll get to see some of the people we know. Fortunately, there were 4-5 people on the floor that I know. I gave them hugggs! I missed them and seeing them smile when they saw us, wow! I was really touched. We went back at HR but it happened that there was a problem with the sched given to us so we decided to go back next week and hope that everything will turn out just fine. What I really love about the work that I had in the call center--the people that I got to be with. It was different. Those people changed my point of view in the call center industry. I may never go back but I will forever cherish what I've learned there and I must say I really had a great time! 

our last shots at the pantry. Ha-ha. The server at the pantry likes us a lot and often mistakenly thinks that Merrill and I are a couple and she took our photos. Ha-ha. I'm sorry Ate but I'm glad to be in a relationship w/ Patten and Merrill is just one of my closest guy friends. 

Fast forward...Merrill and I decided to go and watch a movie, and we were just ontime for Happy Feet Two! I love the lessons that were taught on the film, it was cute and the lessons were just really timely for us. 

After the meet up with Merrill, i bumped into my bestfriend for almost 10 years now, Carlo and his other best friend, Strawberry and chatted. I've never spent so much time with Carlo for the longest time!! Last time that I spent time with him was in College, 2007 I think. Carlo Maglinao is one of the smartest and coolest men I've known!! He's been my best bud since grade school and even if we were in different sections in high school we never failed to take care of the friendship that we built. When we got into college, things became so different but the friendship remains the same. We knew that  we will always be the best of friends and I think that is one of the blessings of having real friends around you. I missed you, bebest! Thanks for the treat! I know you'll be my best friend forever.

Carlo, Me, Strawberry ''marwen''

I loved this day because I got to see my old friends. I know they love me and I love them very much. 

I'm glad I made other people smile today. 

                                                           xxx

G'bye.

In 3 and a half hours, we will be welcoming the last month of our 2011. As you have read on my past blogs, you must really know that I did have a rough November. Sad to say, but yes. I had a rough month. Still, thank God I was able to experience a rough month. I am really sad at the moment but looking forward to what my December has to give, I can't be any happier. 


Haay, L.I.F.E. (SIGH). I cried and messed alot this November but who cares? There are so many beautiful days to look forward to on December. Goodbye, November. Thank you for all the lessons and the little boredom I had with you. It was a rough ride, but I try to think that it was still a fun and worth-learning journey perhaps. 

How was your November my friend?

PS. December, see you tomorrow. 

There's a perfect timing.

This is just another blog post from being upset and moving on. 

Yes, you're right. I'm upset. I was really upset two hours ago, yes really upset. But after some sort of crying and talking to my God, I can say that I'm now a little upset. Two hours ago, I received a not-really-good news, and that made me upset. I was really excited for that, and I just heard that I will not be able to get that thing done by next week. Sad. I felt really sad. I must admit, I got a little mad that's why I had to cry it out. I tried my best to ask God. But I also tried my best not to question him. I just expressed how bad I felt, I told my God how upset I was. I let it all out and cried. Of course I'm not going to write down here what I told him, its just between the two of us. I really felt bad. Seriously, and I must always admit, I hate that sometimes things don't go the way I want it, (Just proves that i am truly a Libran): BUT. That doesn't mean that I'll be mad, sad and upset all the way. I'm sure that is not the Little Kiddo that you know. I know I have so many blog posts about being upset, and moving on and this is just one of those and I'm sure there's still alot to come. 

I know how much I wanted that thing that made me upset. (Not a material, okay? Something really important to me). Unfortunately, I'm not gonna be able to get that thing done. But, I know God has His own reasons. That's what I've always told myself when I get to experience some mishap. I'll never get tired of praying for Him to help me understand His plans for me. It's not that easy to end up trying to understand the things He wants in your life but you always have to trust no matter how difficult it is. Still, we have to realize that He is God. I am really sad, I'm not going to be a hypocrite, I am upset, yes I am. But I dont want to lose myself too much. No matter how bad I am feeling, I know I have to focus on myself and on the things that I can get done. 

As they say, God answers in three ways. 

First, He says Yes and gives you what you want. 

Second, He says no and gives you something better.

Third, He says Wait and gives you the best. 

For the record, I experienced the first and second this year. And maybe, its time I experience the third. No matter how sad I am, I'm sure everything will be alright and worth the wait. 


Thank you for reading and sorry for the little drama.

47.

45 minutes from now and we're turning 3 years and 11 months. Whoa. Today, I sorted some of our photos from the past and I really had a good time browsing over our old photos. 4 years ago, we were just so *kilig* about our blooming love story, we were just so excited getting back in each other's arms after 5 years, i think. Ha-ha. Browsing over our photos from late 2007-2011, I found myself smiling. And then I found Patten's note for me before he left for London last 2010 which made me cry this afternoon. Anyways, since we are turning 47 months in a bit, I tried to actually run down some list of my thank-yous to him and reasons why i admire him but I chose to delete those and it wasnt easy because i really can't put the right words, so it was harder than I thought. 

Happy 47 months, Patrick Allen Vergara! 

I.JUST.MISS.YOU.

12:25 am November 27. 

What's up? Ever had a feeling where you want to tell the person who is just right beside you ''I miss you. and I missed you terribly''. Ever showed some gestures with the person you missed but unfortunately, there's no gesture of any-i-miss-you-too. Sad, isnt it? If you can only shake that person for him/her to realize how much you missed him/her. If only.

It's sad when you miss someone or some people. But what I love about when I miss the people I got to be with, I get certain responses that they miss me too. A text message, an e-mail, a tweet being mentioned on you, any post on any of your social networking sites, when you see people telling you ''I miss you'' or ''I miss you too'', you'd know if its sincere.  But sincere or not, I love the feeling when I get to hear that from other people. I feel touched. I feel happy. And sometimes, when the most important people in my world don't show me enough that they really do miss me or something, I really feel sad. Too much efforts are not really needed. Just a tiny bit of act that you'd know you're really missed will mean the world to you. 

And yes, let's go back. While there's time and a place for you to show how much you miss the person, show it. It's not a good feeling when you're missing a person terribly. Really not. Sometimes, all you just need is an ''I miss you, too.'' coming from whoever that person's heart. Maybe, just as simple as that. 

Three words. To have heard those words, i bet will be one of the best feelings in this world. Knowing that you are being missed. Don't let the people who care for you the most and love you the most long too much for your attention. It is never a good idea. You might end up in a world where you'll start asking yourself out why did you let the people who love you miss you too much and long for your attention? And..then what?

Who are the people that immediately popped into your beautiful minds? Do you miss that person? Why? Did you let the person feel that you miss him/her? How was it?

PS.  Tell the people you miss that you miss them. Start now.

PPS. I miss you.

Touched by...

I am the type of person who enjoys and appreciates the little things around me. (Believe me!)This may be one of the corniest little kiddo's confessions here but have i told you how much I love the kids? I think I did. Blog roll please. Anyway, just recently, I think last week, I heard that a new drama series will be shown on TV and the characters will be portrayed by kids. Kids I admire. *sabaw*. I knew from the moment I saw the trailer, I'd spent nights crying over the scenes. And this week, I did. This primetime drama series is entitled 'Ikaw Ay Pag-Ibig'.  Check it out HERE (click here).

                                 

                                                                      Mutya, Zaijan, Xyriel, Louise.

Louise. When he acts, he speaks, he smiles---he makes me happy in ways I do not know. He is such a simple kid in real life and knowing what his family has been through made me admire him most.

Mutya. Alot told me that I really looked like this kid waaaay back. I couldnt agree more. Our foreheads are undeniably huge. Ha-ha. and she is just so freaaaaakin cute, young and playful!

Zaijan. Loved him eversince. He has a brighter future ahead. 

Xyriel, no wonder.. she's really good!

7 Things you should know about me:

1. I have my favorite childstars. There are few kids who make me cry in just a snaaaap! 

2. I cry over happy scenes. Seeing kids smile, feeling that the world is chaos-free.. Expect me to cry.

3. I hate seeing kids suffer. Too much for them. They should enjoy life.

4. When I see kids suffer, and when I see how they take the obstacles around them with a positive mindset, expect me to cry because that means I admire them to the highest level even if that's just a drama. 

5. When kids act like they are the cutest creatures in the world, expect to see a smile on my face or just a tear-drop. I'm not kidding.

6. Shows such as that/Kids I see on the streets/The kids I handled before/my nephews: They just make my world and I don't know why. 

7. I don't know what's inside of me. I've always thought that I have this heart for them. A heart for the little ones.(Don't get me wrong, I had a beautiful childhood. My parents raised me very well. )If you have any scientfic or theoritical explanation about this, please tell me. I guess I have the right to know. Ha-ha. 

PS: If you can't understand my little exaggeration, I think I'd understand. :')

Period.

I’m not really sure if I should talk about this here. Ha-ha. Anyway, I do think I want to share `my thoughts’ so lets move on.

Its Sunday, and for your information, today the same old person made me proud of being a Filipino again. He is none other than, Manny ‘PACMAN’ Pacquiao. A Filipino boxer. An all-time favourite boxer. Yes, The People’s Champ!

Moving on, unfortunately I wasn’t able to watch it via PPV, so I had to wait for the delayed and annoying telecast at GMA7. But, thanks to Twitter. There were a lot of spoilers. And yes, I’m glad to be updated although I wanted it to be a surprise. I don’t want to wait, period so I kept on checking my Twitter timeline. Simple as that. Upon checking on it, I’ve seen tweets of those I follow that Pacman looked like he’s about to lose..that it was Marquez fighting well, Yadah-Yadah-Yadah. Reading tweets, I felt like I was also watching it. Everyone on Twitter thought that Marquez will win. Every single Pinoy who watched the game on time, expressed this little sadness because our People’s Champ might not have a chance to win the title but they all knew Pacman fought well. Very well. Shortly, tweets were coming up. Pacquiao won, but Marquez deserves it. A lot of tweets about that. Celebrities, Professionals, Friends, yes. They all thought Pacquiao didn’t deserve it.

I don’t know anything about boxing but since I saw Manny Pacman years ago got on the boxing ring,I enjoyed watching it. I mean, I enjoy watching it when its him on the ring. So yes, I don’t know how its being scored, etc. Still reading tweets and status updates on facebook. Filipinos have gone wild, protesting and judging the game. Okay fine, I wasn’t able to watch it on time and I was still waiting for the delayed telecast but… let me share my point! Okay, Im done watching…..

First, ITS BEEN DECIDED. We aren’t the judge. We may see things but that’s the reason why there are judges. By judges, I hope we all know what they do. They know it all about the scoring, etc. So why question Pacman? It wasn’t his fault that he won.

Second. I believe that Pacman worked his ass off to bring pride to our country AGAIN. At the end of the day, its not us fighting there. Its not us sacrificing there. Makes sense? At the end of the day, its still the Philippine Flag being raised. Cant you just be so proud.

Third. I am 100% Proud of being Pinoy. Pinoy at heart. And yes, I’m glad that Filipinos now are different. They go for what’s fair and right. Something to be really proud of. But at some point, we just have to look at it this way: We’ve been used to seeing Pacman knocking his opponent down. We got used to Pacman tearing his opponent’s poor face. Yes, we got used to it. But the thing in his fight with Marquez, it was really good. They were really good. Marquez was really good. That’s the reason why there are so many people that thought that it should be for Marquez. But whats the fuss all about? Results were shown. They both studied how one moves so its pretty easy for them to attack and not to. They knew each other very well. So no more 4^th match. We’ll just witness the same fight. So stop.

Fourth. The fight clearly showed the difference between a fighter who prays and a fighter who praises himself. 

Fifth. Just stop hating. Stop complaining. Let’s just be happy and appreciate it. Results were shown. Just look within, we’re not the judge.

Cant keep your mouth shut? Watch it again. Analyze. Look clearly. Don’t be too judgmental. Study boxing and study how scoring is being done then make your judgment, that’ll be better.

I got your point folks, and I’m proud. Pacquiao won. End of Story.

PS. I admire Marquez a lot. Kudos to him. 

Peace, Love & Happiness.

Lesson learned.

First of all, I want this to be as private as it can be but I really can’t help but share this little conversation that Patten and I had awhile ago.

I asked him this: What is that one thing that you really learned from our relationship?

He said “..That everyday there’s a lesson to be learned. About your partner, your relationship and love itself.. Na mistakes are part of it ; it will work if we are willing to learn’’.

Yes, its nice to hear those words from Pat. ♥

and when it was my turn to be asked the same question:

here’s what I said.. “Mmm. Admit when you’re wrong. Move on and make things right. Grow together. 

Don’t outshine the other cause’ you’re a team. ''

How about you? What is that 'one thing' that you learned from your relationship? Or..that one thing that you learned from loving someone?

Whatever that is, I wish that God continues to bless your heart and your relationship. In a relationship or not, I wish you happiness and contentment. ☺

Magic within.

Everybody is talking about this day. November 11, 2011.

As soon as i got up from bed, I made a wish. They say that whatever you wish today will be granted. Nothing to lose if you still give it a try, right?

My 11 stories this 11-11-11.

1.I knew as soon as i got up that there's a beautiful day ahead of me. I headed out to PRC Manila by 7am and arrived there at nearly 10. And yes, finally got my license! It felt great to finally hold that one little thing that you worked hard for. Two words: worth it.

2.Fast forward after PRC, i met up with Patten. To cut the story short, all i can say is: No dull moment with him. Yes, we face problems. All couple experience the same. Anyway, he just made me laugh the whole time we were together. Of course, aside from those kick ass times, he never fails to show much he cares for me alot. Two words: better half

3. Im not a huge fan of depriving myself on what to eat. At 3pm today, we went to McDonalds! Just like a kid who sees something new, i tried the new Cadburry Mcflurry! Eating at Mcdo will never be complete with my Cheeseburger meal. Two words: happy kid

4. Eating at Mcdo, i saw these students reviewing for their board exam, yes! With books, etc. I loved how all of them looked like while discussing, chatting, writing and studying. Most of them are Thomasians! I hope they pass their licensure exam, whatever it is. Two words: Fly high!

5. Patten had to go back to class til 6pm so i just waited for him from 4:30. While waiting, i kept myself busy by playing Sims3. All time favourite game! Sad to say, i lost one sim because it has reached its maximum age. Haha. Gah, couldnt believe i got a little affected by that loss. Haha. RIP Lady Royalty, Leader of The Free World. Two words: move on

6. Walking down to Buendia, it was the first time i saw a family looking for some leftovers in the trash bins along Buendia. At one point, i couldnt speak. Didnt really realize that people do it in real life. I wish the government can do something about that however i pray that those doing the same thing strive so they can live a better life. Lets just say: they just need to have all the guts in the world. Two words for that: strive HARDER.

7. Bus ride. Here's a funny thing, everytime i travel with Patten, he makes sure that ill be able to sleep well during the trip. And it always feel like i just had been charged. Despite my leg cramps that by that time has goin on for   4hrs, i still managed to get a good catnap. Two words: sleepy head.

8. Lipa Bound by 9:30. We had dinner @ Mother's. & i had my favorite daingsilog! (dried fish + fried rice + egg). Two words: Another fave!

9. I arrived at home almost 10pm. While browsing with my twitter timeline, i saw my friend Ate Mhye tweeted me this:

Haha! Sweet Ate Mhye! Two words: flattered kid

10. I have a photographic memory. It was November11 of last year since I threw a surprise for my friend Lindsay. One of the sweetest things i've done for a friend. Check it out: 11.11.10

Two words: sweet surprise

11. I put an alarm on my phone at 11:11 pm. I thought maybe i could make another wish. But!! Instead of just wishing, I prayed! I smiled and talked to the Big boss. It was a wonderful day that we should all be thankful for. Why not set aside whatever you want to wish, it will be more magical if you spend that magical time with the Big Boss! Right? :') two words: magical time

There you go. Yes, it was just like an ordinary day. But the thing is: what you do and what you decide to do the whole day makes it extraordinary. There's nothing wrong if we believe in some superstitions etc. At the end of the day, the most important thing is: You make the most out of it not because of any magical reason but because you decide to be happy and enjoy that day. I hope that makes sense.

PS. Decide to be happy.

Pps: little kid's lucky number for 21 years: 11

             

BEST GIFT THIS 2011. ♥

the little kid

Spilled Milk.

                     

Lately, with the decisions that I've been making I feel like the risks that I am taking make moving on and letting go a little harder for me. 


An hour ago, Patten told me this saying ''Don't cry over spilled milk'' and then he added ''You already drank the half of it''. And I guess he's totally right. Just can't help being sad and upset with myself. However, I'm still glad that I know in time everything will be alright, Yes?

Plus, my ''God wants you to know'' has always been perfect. =)

Fingers Crossed

You are too sweet, Father.

Hi there, TLKC!

I’m making a big decision and I hope everything goes out very well. I am deciding for my future, something that I really want and I am more excited than ever. I hope and pray that everything goes out really well. Really really well. So please do pray with me again, yes?

I am actually deciding to go for something that I really love. Once I get the outcome of the decisions that I’m gonna be making, I’ll let you know. For now, just please do pray with me. I want it so bad and I cant wait to finally make my dreams come true.

Love, the little kiddo

Something fishy and fun.

Since work has been a little hard on me (WEH) HAHA. I joined the gang on their little Ocean Park experience. After the 11am Holy Mass at Carmel that Patten and I attended, we joined the gang and headed out to Manila. The weather was really Bipolar that Sunday. It was raining and sunny. Too bipolar.  

We arrived lunch time @ Buendia, ate at this little Chicken resto which I forgot the name. Sorry for that. Haha.

I loved their chicken anyways. ☺

Ocean Park Photos:

 We got to see different kinds of fish. 

Just a little glimpse of what we've seen there. 

Took few good shots.

RAWR. 

This FASH SPA was really a cute experience! You just have to endure being tickled. 

Glad to have taken few good shots!

 Black and White

& the most memorable thing that happened that day was, I was one of the few participants who volunteered on the face to face experience with the Sea Lion. HA-HA.

I got to meet Aira, sea lion's name. Well, she stinks and smells really fishy (Yes, as in fishy) But I had a good time feeding her.  And here's the catch, I got to let her kiss me on my lips (&cheek) HAHA.

My SEA LION experience:

Meet the gang:

L-R: Me, Patten, Ate Aiz, Kuya Kirby, Jaix & Kuya Patrick

(finally there's a group shot)

MUSHY-NESS with the Mushrooms.

After our little Ocean Park experience, we headed straight to MOA (Mall of Asia) and had dinner at Lamesa Grill and the foods that were served were lip-smacking.

and so the little kiddo enjoyed her Sunday.
