random thoughts

-i wonder why things don't always go exactly the way we want them to be.

-i wonder why people always need conditions before things can be how they want them to be, even if it is for their own happiness.

-try to be happy with what you actually have.

-look back on yesterday's memories and smile.

-i hate to see people regret the one chance they had to be really happy.

-it's sad to know that you are the only reason that that one person can be truly happy and yet, you don't want to be with that person anymore.

-i pity those people who are loved but don't actually know that they are.

-have mercy on those people who think of themselves and hurt other people.

-someone's doing the laundry and I love him.

-i shared a plate with someone last night and i love him more.

-i'll miss another week, not spending time with him. Til our next rest days. =D

From Regina

Just want to share with you a poem (with her permission, of course) that my cousin wrote. I just find it making such a strong statement while showing one's vulnerability. I believe all of us who knows how to love have been vulnerable to love and its consequences.

isang umaga, bigla ko minulat ang aking mga mata
at ako'y ngulat sa aking nkta
limang taon na pala
limang taon na pala akong tanga

lumipas na ang sariwang simoy ng hangin
lumipas na ang makulay na nkaraan
Ito ang katotohanan
lahat ay panaginip ko lang

ganun pa man,di ko mapigilan ang mapaluha
kay rami ring binitawang biyaya
para sa isang kaluluwang mapaanyaya

subalit pagdating sa dulo ng daan
wla pala akong pinagkatandaan
dahil ang kaluluwang tinangi
ay parte ng imahinasyon lamang

at sa aking pagtangis
di ko mapigil ang paghihinagpis
ng puso at damdamin
na di humiling ng kapalit

sana nanatili na lang sya na ndi humihingi ng kapalit
dahil ang puso ko ngaun
di mapigil ang pagngitngit

ilang tanong pang walang kasagutan?
ilang taon pang walang katinuan
balewala din naman
Ito na ang katapusan

katapusan ng kuwentong di naman dapat sinimulan

maraming tinuro ang kuwentong ito
at yon ay ang mga maling simula
kailanman ay di maitatama

wala na ring saysay
kahit p man umabot pa sa libo ang mga pahina
wla rin namang magandang wakas
sayang lang ang plumang ginamit ko..

bagamat walang katuturan ang aking naisulat
sa mga pahina nitoy mbbakas
natuto ako mgmahal

ndi man ito kagandahan
ito'y kinapulutan ko ng aral..
At kahit di maganda..
Ang kuwento ay kailangan ng wakasan..


To you, cuz, may you find your way back... wink**

Happy Mothers' Day!

Happy Mothers' Day to all the mothers out there and to everyone's moms.

This will be our first Mothers' Day without Mama, but I still want remember how she is as a person and of course, as a mom.


Josine, Joshua, Mom and me, last year @ Josine's high school graduation


Mama and me

Sobrang strikto si Mama. Ako lang yata ang dalaga nun sa high school na ang curfew eh, 530pm pag school days. After that, siguradong nasa listahan na ako ng mga pinaghahanap ng barangay. hehehe. Thanks, mom!

May pagka-OC din siya. She has this certain way of doing things - the PERFECT WAY! She hates seeing things not in their places - from the curtains (yep, tru, no kidding!), to the pillows, to the magazines, figurines and place mats -- kelangan maayos at symmetrical, aligned, parallel, basta maayos!

She is selfless. Ibibili na niya muna ang lahat bago ang sarili niya kahit birthday niya. She makes sure that we always look neat and good. Matipid siya pero hindi siya yung matipid na magmumukha kaming mahirap. Sabi nga niya sa akin dati, "mahirap na nga tayo, magmumukha pa bang ganon?!". Kaya madalas akala sa school, mga anak kami ng OFW. (we always take it as a compliment), yun nga lang pagdating sa gastusan na, we usually are the first one to back out. Minsan, di na pwedeng sumama sa mga field trips at programs na nangangailangan ng gastos. Pero hangga't kaya ni Mama, gagawin niya ng lahat para makasama kami.

Bonggang-bongga si Mama. Magaling talaga siyang magbudget kaya kahit maliit ang budget, laging special ang pagkain kahit walang okasyon. Hindi pwdeng mawala ang meryenda sa umaga at sa hapon, kelangan parating may RC na kasama. =D

Sayang, wala na si Mama. I think mas maraming babies ang mas nangangailangan ng pag-aalaga ni Mama dun sa heaven, siguro mas makulit ang mga bata dun kesa sa amin, kaya tinawag na agad ni God si Mama to help Him.

I have so many plans for her, plans that I'm sure will make her happy and proud that I am her daughter. I made her cry out of disappointments but in the end, I'd always know that she was always there no matter what happened. She really loved me despite my failures and faults.

I'm sad that she'll not be around to see me get married, see and play with my kids, travel with me and Ceasar, to shop for stuff she will put in her dream house that I will buy for her, to feel my love and gratitude for all the things that she has given me without conditions.

Mom, I just want you to know that I love you so much and Happy Mothers' Day!

peace!

I feel that I just need to make a conscious decision to not be easily annoyed by people, things and events that make me frustrated, upset or annoyed.

I just think that will make me happier, coz bigla ko lang napansin, mas madalas akong inis o iritable lalo na sa mga tao. I dunno if it's because of the summer heat or what, basta unexplainable siya. Siguro, ang hindi ko na lang talaga nasusungitan yung mga teammates ko dito sa office.

So before it gets out of hand, I knew I had to make this conscious decision na I'll do my best to not be that "mataray" anymore.

Lots of prayers and patience... I'll keep you posted!

Wu Chun!Wu Chun!Wu Chun!Wu Chun!

"I think I'm in love!", well at least, with Wu Chun's character in Hana Kimi, "Brian"... he is so cute!! I don't get to watch the series everyday since most of the time, I go straight to my room, change clothes, take a shower then sleep.

BUt whenever I have the time and the strength, I dare not miss that cute face and hot bod.. hehehe. Don't worry, Ceasar knows this. As if naman may magagawa siya. Ha!


Mejo corny ang look niya dito. =( pero cute talaga siya! promise!!

Heto, cute na siya talaga.
