Reminisce

Ten years ago, on this same day...

          I cried the hardest in my entire life.

          I was so devastated.

          I questioned HIS love for me.

          I felt that life was so unfair.

          I realized how short life was.

But because also of HIM,

               

          I realized how lucky I am to be given 13 years to share life with Papa.It may seem so short for me at first, but I think this was enough. Enough for a father 

                            to inspire a child 

                            to inculcate good values 

                            to be of good influence

                            to teach a child to have positive outlook in life

Today, I remember the 16th of November ten years ago, still in tears but with a grateful heart. There are a lot in life to be thankful for.

For all those who truly loves and supports me, THANK YOU. Life would be so much different and maybe so much harder without people who cares.

From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU.

ber-ber MOMENTS

Whoah! 

Time passes by so fast I didn't realize how long it has been since I last blogged. 

October 18. Flight back home.

I am so excited that I took the earliest flight to General Santos City. A 5:30am flight! I won't do this again anymore. Stressful! I need to  be at the airport super early. Argh. I was with some friends though... Dora's older sister and Miss Tokyo Tokyo.

The EXPLORERS of the world. Where's Diego guys?

 

Little Miss Tokyo Tokyo.

Last Luzon dinner before home. I shared some of these to kuya Apol. 

 

I also found these on the department store of Rob.

Oh my. My heart goes tumbling down. I love these.

I makes me feel sexy and beautiful. I mean it.

It is just weird for the feeling to be induced by a pair of shoes.

Oh well, we must have our own makes-me-feel-good inducing agents. It just happen that these shoes are for thyself.

Thank you for making me feel beautiful. Really.

What else is best-est when at home?!

Family. I miss these guys over here.

I am so glad to spend my self-imposed 1 week semestral break with you! Also, I had the chance to watch a movie with my Mama and some "thunder" titas and a cousin. Praybeyt Benjamin it is! It's only 65 pesos at Marbel!

According to these boys, they felt being in an airport. Ano nakain nyo?

 

Then comes the All Saints and Souls Day. 

We still had the annual get together in the coolest cemetery in the whole wild world! Matutum Holy Garden provides entertainment! Really. I had the chance to spend time with relatives. I had fun.

DUQUEs.

November is not the same if we do not celebrate Halloween.

The best way would be spending it with the most beautiful people. 

I am really excited for this monthly Ladies Night Gathering. This is my second attendance out of the 9! I need to do some attending, real hard. I hope to see the rest of the team soon.

THE ANGEL WEARS PRADA. whops!

 

My Coffee Dream.

And oh, one more thing.
I still had this blue nail polish on my feet-nails.
They came a long time ago. But they are still intact though.

Better change the color asap.

Another one more thing.
I am kinda busy with lab works now.
I'll update whenever I have the chance.
I just came from a 3-day straight overnight work back in the lab with no satisfying data, YET.

Ciao.

tonight I'M IN LOVE.

Yes! Tonight, I fell in love with music.

Thank you TED. 
I learned to appreciate the underdog of all musical instruments, ukulele. I am speechless. Thank you Jake Shimabukuro! I am a fan.

Check this one out!
Jake playing the Bohemian Rhapsody...

BRAVO.
This made my night. :)

Master Motivator of THYSELF

Classes end yesterday.

Today is a Thursday. I don't know what happened to me but I don't feel like moving. I had breakfast at around 7:30 am, went back to bed until about 9am. Then decided to open my laptop. Then goes net surfing until 12nn! I haven't done anything yet for the day.. Argh! I hate myself for this.

And so, I told myself that my "day" will start at 1pm.

And indeed, I started moving at 1pm.

I needed to go to the book binding station to get some stuff.

On my way to out of the campus, an BRILLIANT IDEA came!

I wanted to reward myself for meeting the deadline in submitting an approved thesis outline... And so I will indulge myself to Nutella! WOHOO. But then again, past is past. Yesterday's victory is for yesterday... I need to face my today. 

I need to have a super energy booster to motivate myself to do some work today. Thus, I challenge myself to finish one of my requirements today. A laboratory exercise for a Thermal Processing class. SUCH A GOOD IDEA.

However, Mr. Nutella plays hard to get. I went Robinson's Town Place and failed. I haven't found Mr. Nuts there! Mr. Robinson's, you failed me. I am very disappointed. :( 

But life must continue, persist until you succeed! lol.

So, I went to Walter Mart and my efforts paid off!

Good thing they have Mr. Nuts. :)

Thank you Walter Mart! You made my day.

On my way back to the dorm, approximately 50 meter from our door step, my cute little LILIW sandals gave up! :(

Farewell, my comrade! you have served me well.

Andaming nangyari! Whatever happened to my little sandals there, I am not saddened because of Mr. Nuts! Excited much!

Finally, I got you Mr. Nuts!

 And here's the challenge:

Are you up for the challenge?

Oh, by the way... this is what I had to carry back home from the book binding station:

These were heavy!

I hope to finish my lab report today.

I just realized how good I am in motivating myself to finish my tasks.. HAHAHA. Good job myself! Rock on.

Starter for 10 & some BSB

 

I'm kinda not that "busy" today... and so I decided to chill.
I found this movie on my Videos Folder.
It's STARTER FOR 10.

It's simple.

It's witty.

It's smart talk. Nerd talk maybe.

It made sense.

It's DEEP.

I would recommend this movie to friends. 

I would like to share to you some of the brightest thoughts (for me) of Brian Jackson:

 

  I admit it. I’d made some mistakes. Okay, some big mistakes. Loads of them. But you can’t hide in your room forever feeling sorry for yourself. It’s not practical. At some point, you've got to get back out there, face up to things, and confront your demons. 

Ever since I can remember, I'd wanted to be clever.

Some people are born clever, same way some people are born beautiful. I'm not one of those people. I'm going to have to work at it, put in the effort, and if I mess it up, I’ll learn from it.

  Besides, sometimes it’s not about knowing the right answer.Sometimes it’s about asking the right questions.

-------

Also, it's not just movie day trip.. I also got some rockin'. :)

Oh yeah. You heard it right... But not with the typical rockin' coz I got my BSB back. Yes, THE Backstreet Boys. My childhood, or my teenage-hood. I downloaded the GREATEST HITS: Chapter 1. Thank you coda.fm!

And suddenly, I miss being 15. 

Chao!
