LEA

God really loves me that much that He made me closer to you. I found a family in you and you’re one of the reasons why I am enjoying my stay in Manila. He chose you above all people. We both should be grateful for that.

I’ll miss every single moment we finish each other’s sentences with lyrics. Those times when we rack our brains if we forget the title of the song and all that we can think of are the lyrics. I’m so thankful that music’s part of this world. It’s one thing that made our bond strong. Although we share some good deal of choices, it’s one thing that made us enjoy our company. Forever will I not forget the song “Irreplaceable” because that’s the time when we’re starting to like each other. Can I not finish this? I can’t breathe anymore.

Do you still remember how many times we giggled whenever we think of the same thing at the same time or type the same thing at the same time? We have a lot of those and I’ve never experienced that with anyone yet. I guess we’re both of the same level but of course you would want to be the first so go ahead and take the top spot and I’ll be the second.

No one understands me better than you do. No one takes me as I am like you do. I can’t pretend anymore when I’m in front of you because you can see right through me. I don’t want to start looking for someone who’ll do that for me. The real me is when I’m with you. I’ve never opened up to anyone like I always do to you-trash talks, dirty talks, serious talks, whatever talk there is. All the happy moments happened when I was with you and I hope they don’t stop just there. I can’t thank you enough for helping me find me. 

Thanks for everything. Please never let go of me ‘cause I’m not letting go until the last man on earth dies.

Signed, sealed, delivered, I’m yours,
Pepe, Pepito, Philipos, Phelps

The P.A.I.N.

It might be far too long but as days and hours move so quickly, I might suddently find myself facing the end of everything. It's difficult to keep something especially if doesn't bear anything good at all. It's painful and unbearable. The pang of every undesirable emotion crushes every flesh and bones I have. My mind's battling with perfectly arranged indestructible notion.


P.S.
To borrow a line from Pink's Family Portrait, "...pain is painful and it's tearing me down".

El Cambio

There are times that we resist change because we're afraid of what might happen when it arrives. Change is something that I fear but can't avoid. It makes me nervous. It gives me enough reasons to be nervous.

I don't know if I should be excited with the changes that will soon take place - professionally and emotionally. I am not prepared honestly but there's nothing I can do but to just embrace it as it comes. I just wish it's for the better.



P.S. More to come.

Moving On

The Riddle

It’s like a riddle that none of us can answer.
My mouth is scared to utter any word.
I don’t think it’s making me better.
In the dark my thoughts are cold.

We are the enemies of ourselves.
I hold back when you give in.
It’s a fight that we’re both trying to win
Yet you hate the thought of leaving.

Nothing is gained but emptiness.
Thoughts about you are vague.
We can’t assume a single thing
For uncertainty is very clear.

Before I get through this maze,
I might just find my way back.
Roads might be covered with haze,
But I’ll try walking ahead with luck.

In the middle of the road I sit.
Patience has taken its toll on me.
If you’ll ask me the puzzling question,
I’ll just close my eyes and walk away.

My 2010

2010 was indeed my year! It was like all the stars were drawn together to make most of my wishes come true. I was born on the Year of the Tiger and I can say that last year went very well for me.


I found these questions from one of the tumblr users I follow and I answered them as well:


1. What did you do in 2010 that you’d never done before?
I applied for a position at work that I’ve been dying to apply for 3 years ago. It took me 2 years to have the courage to finally apply and luckily, I passed.

2. Did you keep your New Year’s Resolutions, and will you make more for this year? 
Honestly, I forgot about what I promised to keep/not to do for last year but I were to make one for this year, that would be for me to loosen up. I pressure myself too much and I panic a lot. I’m always afraid to try so for this year, I’ll try to always try. 

3. Did anyone close to you give birth? 
None. 

4. Did anyone close to you die? 
My grandfather’s sister. 

5. What country/countries did you visit? 
Singapore! Thanks to my bestfriend! 

6. What would you like to have in 2011 that you lacked in 2010? 
PEACE of mind. 

7. What date from 2010 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
June 5 because that’s when I first visited Boracay and I really enjoyed it. I thought that place was just overrated but the truth is, it’s paradise! I’m planning to go back this year. 

8. What was your biggest achievement of the year? 
I passed for the post that I applied for and got promoted. 

9. What was your biggest failure? 
I always worry and that to me is my greatest failure. I hate it when I worry ‘cause it makes me restless. 

10. Did you suffer illness or injury? 
Thank God I didn’t! 

11. What was the best thing you bought? 
My netbook. 

12. Whose behavior merited celebration? 
Nobody but mine. 

13. Whose behavior made you appalled and depressed? 
Her and his. 

14. Where did most of your money go? 
Clothes, food and clothes again. 

15. What did you get really, really, really excited about? 
I got excited about buying my new netbook. 

16. What song will always remind you of 2010? 
Teenage Dream by Katy Perry! 

17. Compared to this time last year, are you: happier or sadder? thinner or fatter? richer or poorer? 
Happier because almost everything that I asked for was given to me. Maybe because it was the Year of the Tiger, my year. Fatter maybe as I don’t look as emaciated as I was before. I’m 100% richer but I don’t have savings. 

18. What do you wish you’d done more of? 
Spent time with my family or with my close friends ‘cause I was always busy with work. 

19. What do you wish you’d done less of? 
Worrying and thinking of what ifs! 

20. How did you spend your Christmas? 
I was at work during Christmas Eve. During the day itself, I spent the whole day with my housemates. 

21. Did you fall in love in 2010? 
I sure did. 

22. How many one-night stands? 
Plenty! In my dreams! 

23. What was your favourite TV program? 
The Vampire Diaries and a lot of MTV and Channel V. 

24. Do you hate anyone now that you didn’t hate this time last year? 
Yes, sometimes. 

25. What was the best book you read? 
Omeegash! This question just hit me! I’ve not read any good books this year! 

26. What was your greatest musical discovery? 
Robyn and Goldfrapp. I’m trying to explore electropop.

Netbook, broadband and Ipod touch.

30. What one thing would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying? 
Last year’s happenings were really satisfying. I can’t complain at all. 

31. How would you describe your personal fashion concept in 2010? 
I call it whatever because I wear whatever I feel like wearing. It’s a combination of everything.

Friends and music.

My new team-the training team. 

37. Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2010: 
I’d never get anything out of worrying too much and life would suck if I don’t take chances.
