killing time  

I ate so much today :o and I mean literally ate sooooo much. Ice cream, cake, roasted chicken, crispy pata, rice cakes...I don't even want to think about it. Holy cow! I'm a pig. &^%!)#&@( okay fine whatever.

I was out the whole day and it was fun. I want to go book shopping again! I dropped by the bookstore today and made another list. Yieee! exciting. :D I'm enjoying idleness. All I ever do these past few days is watch TV shows. Right now, I'm waiting for the first two episodes of Desperate Housewives season 2 and the 17th episode of Gossip Girl to load. By the way, I'm thrilled to find out what will happen after the CRAZY revelation in the previous episode. 

Ayt! Enough blabbing for now. 

SURVEY (thanks Gliza!)

Ten Things You Want To Say To Ten Different People:
1. I said "Hi" to you in Shoe Salon earlier this afternoon, I don't know why you just glanced at me. I looked back pa nga eh, to see if it just slipped your mind or what. Sabi mo you want me to say hi to you! I did and you ignored me. Whyyy? :( 
2. Siguro kung hindi ka umalis kaagad, it could've worked out. :)
3. Ang arte mo! ang hirap mo pakisamahan. Hindi kita maintindihan eh. Nakakaasar na kasi hindi ko maintindihan why you act that way. Ewan ko kung forever ka ng ilang or what. I mean c'mon, just let it all out. Be yourself. We don't have anything to keep from each other naman eh. Ang labo mo :( I'm your friend! stop trying too hard! bakit ba nagpapaimpress ka?  I really want to make this work you know. I do care for you and not once did I bullshit you. I hope we're clear. 
4. I never really liked your smile. Mukhang may defect yung jaw mo or something.
5. DATE TAYO!!!! =)) 
6. Honest to goodness, I can't wait to spend time with you again.
7. Sa totoo lang, para kang tanga. Hahahaha! buti nga sayo! that's what you call Karma honey. >:P
8. It'll be better this time, I promise. :)
9. You guys mean the world to me. I wouldn't know what to do without you. 
10. Can we leave now? please please please?

Nine Things About Yourself:
1. My body clock is currently f*cked up. I sleep at around 4-5am and wake up around 3-4pm.
2. I easily get carried away.
3. I'm a very driven young lady. :D
4. I'm in love with my family and friends! and with life too! :)
5. I seldom smile but I'm a friendly person. :)

8. I'm fond of visualizing my future. I don't exactly plan things out but I set lots of goals.

Eight Ways To Win My Heart
1. You have to be capable of stimulating my mind. (i.e interesting and sensible arguments with me :P)
2. Know how to make me feel independent, to let me do my own thing, and at the same time, be aware of the fact that I still do like being babied.
3. Win my trust. Unless you do, we won't get anywhere.
4. Be considerate and sensitive. I'm not saying that you should totally allow me to be selfish, just acknowledge the fact that I'm a girl and you know how girls, LIKE BOYS, can be very weird at times.
5. Show me that you need me. Make me feel that you really want me to be part of your life. :)
6. Surprise me. Do something new once in a while. It keeps the interest going.
7. Be there for me.

Four Songs That Describe Your Life:
1. Learning to breathe - Switchfoot
   I could use a fresh beginning too
   All of my regrets are nothing new 

   That I'm learning to breathe 
    I'm learning to crawl
    I'm finding that You and
    You alone can break my fall
    I'm living again, awake and alive
    I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies


2. Disarray - Lifehouse  
   Someday I'm gonna find it
   Wish I knew what I was looking for
   Inside the disarray (inside the disarray)
   I woke up this morning 
   Don’t know where I’m going
   But it’s alright
   I wouldn't have it any other way

   I’m struggling between the facts and fiction
   I’m alone
   But I'm alive


3. Light years away - MoZella 
   I was stuck in between you and a hard place
   We won't talk about the hard place

   But I don't blame you anymore
   That's too much pain to store
   It left me half dead
   Inside my head
   And boy, looking back I see 
   I'm not the girl I used to be 
   When I lost my mind
   It saved my life

  It's how you wanted it to be 
  It's like you played a joke on me 
  And I lost a friend 
  In the end
  And I think that I cried for days
  But now that seems light years away
  And I'm never going back
  To who I was


4. Suddenly I see - KT Tunstall
     It doesn’t get better than this 
     I’ve waited all my life
    To just be like this
    There is nothing that I wanna miss
    Cuz it doesn’t get- 
    No it doesn’t get better than this.

just like the old love song goes  
This weekend is definitely going to the list of my most memorable ones. I was out with the whole family during the whole weekend. Mom and Dad went shopping yesterday, lalo na si mommy! it felt great to see her splurge for herself every now and then 'cause she hardly does. I also feel that my brother and I are becoming closer and closer. He doesn't shove me off immediately when I hug him anymore, he waits for a few seconds. Progress! haha...and a whole lot more stuff.  

We woke up early today, bought flowers, ate lunch and dinner out, spoiled my mom by giving her everything she wants, hung out in Starbucks, watched what happens in Vegas which by the way is a nice movie, attended mass while it was raining and etcetera.  

I know this won't make sense to most of you because I don't really have "specific" reasons for being THIS happy, but I am, I really am. I sang during mass tonight. It has been ages since I last did, fourth year HS if I'm not mistaken? God has been blessing me with so much lately and I felt like it's the least I could do. He has bestowed upon me contentment, genuine happiness and peace of mind. If you ask me, those three don't come cheap at all. I actually consider them as one of the most expensive blessings you could ever ask for. Not everyone has them, or if they do, not altogether. Thank you, thank you so much for everything. :)
Since we're talking about this, I wish that people would quit the common habit of automatically linking happiness to a romantic relationship or anything material for that matter. I mean c'mon, you can't be seriously telling me that you can only be happy when you have those? HELL NO.

Anyhow, I did not really plan on making any Mother's day tribute entry thingamajig but seeing all of my friend's posts, I just felt like I had to. I'm still waiting for Grey's to load anyway so might as well.   

Everyone in our family knows how much my mom and I bicker ALL THE TIME. My dad said it's because we're so alike. I agree, but mom and I are also different in a lot ways.  Simply put, we look out for one another. I scold her, she scolds me. What I love most about our relationship is that she accepts me for me and I can tell her anything (believe me, you'll be shocked when you find out the stuff she knows about me). I love the fact that you don't give me the "anak ka lang treatment" and that you actually listen to what I have to say because you acknowledge that I'm right sometimes. See, my mom is my bestfriend. It's hard to explain, all I know is that not every mother and daughter share the same relationship we do. 

Okay, this is harder than I thought...I don't want to get all emotional now.
We didn't take any pictures today, no surprises too. She was never into those things to begin with. A woman of few words and shows her affection through little gestures. Mommy just want things as they are, nothing too complicated. That's actually one of the things I admire most about her. I just think about how my mom lives life whenever I can no longer take things.  I didn't even greet her, well not directly. But I know for a fact that mom knows we love her so much. The smiles we were able to put in her face say it all. 

You know I'll do ANYTHING for you.
You've been there for me throughout everything [and believe me they weren't just "things"]. 
You are one of the reasons why I continue to live life the best way I could.
Thanks for everything Ma! you know I love you ;)

Photobucket 

Since you're the reason why I can sing almost all of the Carpenters' songs, this goes out to you. It basically says everything.

You are the one who makes me happy 
When everything else turns to grey 
Yours is the voice that wakes me mornings
 And sends me out into the day 
You are the crowd that sits quiet Listening to me 
And all the mad sense that I make 

You are one of the few things worth remembering 
And since it's all true 
How could anyone mean more to me Than you 
Sorry if sometimes I look past you 
There's no one beyond your eyes 
Inside my head wheels are turning 
Hey, sometimes I'm not so wise 
You are my heart and my soul My inspiration 
Just like the old love song goes 

You are one of the few things worth remembering 
And since it's all true 
How could anyone mean more to me Than you

It has never been the question of who forgets, sometimes -- there's a definite pain on being the only one who remembers everything.

It never feels good to be left alone. When it finally dawns on you that you're no longer in the same ground with the other, that's the time it all begins to crumble. No worries, it ends. :)

***
I found my official travel buddy!
I know you're a lot more serious than I am and it might not be as fun, but I still look forward to it. 
Thanks G! and I love you. :)
