as for my personal life, ill keep it personal..hehe.. US pics to come…

[leaving or left out?]

i know the feeling of the one who leaves and the one who is being left out…i can’t say which one hurts more but definitely both of them hurts – big time… but have you ever thought of the feeling when you’re in between the two? you are leaving but someone left you because you are leaving. amf! masakit na nga yung isa e. doble pa?! 

the next day, it feels like as if you have been slapped by infinite times. you’re numb. you barely differentiate the feeling of being happy and sad. you have been left with so many questions. questions that i don’t think no one can answer but time.

why is there such a thing as leaving? is it possible that if you love someone, be with her forever?

i hope that someday i would understand the true meaning of leaving. the true meaning of being left out. the true meaning of emptiness…

[movin.on]

at long last there’s a new feelin comin over
i dunno what this is
but its a bit lighter than before,
a bit joyful than yesterday
 
am not missin her anymore
am not longing for her voice
am not longing for her touch
am not missin her!
 
but is this really what i feel?
or am i just making it all up
i dont know
all i know is that this feels great!
 
i really wanted to be on my feet again
i really wanted to start new
i really wanted to start fresh
free from all pain
free from all sorrows
free from grudges
so that when a new one comes in,
i’ll welcome it with open arms…

[undying.love]

 

I dont know what to do

Every time I close my eyes all I see is you

Every time I try to dictate my heart that I need to move on,

It responds that I should go back

 

Im so tired

But still, I wanted to continue

Im so hurt

But still, wanted to fight

 

I dont know why I feel this way for you

Maybe coz you showed me the world?

Maybe coz you showed me how to love?

I really dont know…

All I know is that I love you so much

 

But I need to get back to my feet

And continue my journey in life by myself

Coz I dont want to see you in pain

And I dont want to see you in tears

 

But, is this really the right thing to do?

I dont know

This is so fuckin hard!!!

 

[a.silver.life:initial.chapter]

ahhhhh….got a first taste of a dawned year of my life – quite bitter and unexpected but what the hell, its a part of life, part of maturity that i needed to embrace.

i dont know what to expect further on this chapter of my life but i bet whatever comes, may it be negative or positive or neutral event, always treat it as a learning experience. experience that will give a whole new different perspective in life.

to be honest, i dont know if am just saying these words to ease all the pain thats in me at the moment. i wanna mask all the sad faces coming out of my head and pretend that everything is ok and SHOULD be ok.

at the moment, i am still searching for the light…. light that can show me the path on where to go and what road to choose…. light that can clear my clouded head so that i can have restfull nights after ages of turmoil….

[pepper.lunch:spicing.up]

 

while my friend and myself look for some place to eat after we bought the LMF for Indiana Jones at powerplant, we saw alot of people lining up on one place and a bunch of flowers all over the place – aha! bagong bukas…

the place is called pepper lunch – they cater japanese sizzling DIY cuisines that gives a bit of a spiced up experience since you get to mix your own meal and put the sauces or spices that u want to achieve what your tastebuds require…personally, i love their beef curry pepper rice with honey brown sauce..

 

BON APPETIT!

[price-off.experience]

excuse me, do I know you? are you a celebrity? — LOL! a running joke that my friends and I are cracking everytime we feel like laughing at each other…these very words were in my head when I went out and shop at price-off, an RTW store situated in Makati…in this store it feels like am a total celebrity when it comes to customer service…

lets drill down to the details – first, when i arrived the store, the guard made an effort to open both doors instead of only one…it seems that a celebrity-like person will pass through the store and he greeted me gleefully as i enter…next, as i rove around the store, all the sales staff courteously greeted me and ask if i needed assistance…after i picked my 2 or 3 shirts, i went to the fitting room and thats when the real experience happened…minute by minute, the sales staff asks me if i wanted more clothes to choose from, she gives me a bunch of shirts for me to try on and it seems limitless…they wanted me to try all of their brands and colors…as a result, i bought quite a number of shirts and take note, the price of each shirt is very affordable considering that the labels were top brands…i think those shirts were overruns thats why the cost is much lower..

overall, i would love to shop again to that store to experience being somebody even if youre just someone… 😀

[bora:the.aftermath]

its been 3 days after i arrived from my most sought after vacation and i can still feel the fresh sea breeze blowing my face and the sun kissing my skin… *sigh* – sarap bumalik ng bora…it’s a complete package as what most of us say – relaxing ambience, good food, nice shoreline and of course nightlife! inuman na! ehehe… lots of new bars pala opened around station 1 – can’t remember the names coz i havent tried going in (dahil umuulan na 😦 ) … pero what i can’t forget is the mongolian resto/bar around d’mall area  – though staffs were not as friendly as what you expect (parang di nila gusto ang trabaho nila.. :)) ) but they do have a good food…

also, bora shows a collection of people from different classes – A to D… celebrity and non-celebrity people get together in that area (di ba pam n rye? 😉 ) its a mix of character from different walks of life which gives a good experience to anyone who encounters it… it simply tells us that whoever or wherever you came from, you’re welcome to enjoy and relax and simply have a good time…

right now, i dont care if my back hurts coz of sun burn or if i seem like an astringent user (lol),  what matters to me is that i’ve enjoyed the tranquility and the liberty of not thinking anything but relaxation… balik na ko bora!

 

[banner.pic]

this is one of the best shots that my friend took when we were in bora last weekend..

this pic shows another side of bora which is far from the stereotyped boracay shore – white sands and clean shoreline.. this shows the rocky formations that was hidden on the other part of the island..

thanks Pam and Rye for the pics! 😉
