THANK YOU FOR GREETING ME ON MY BIRTHDAY!!
GRACIAS!

My birthday!

My 21st birthday!!!

Best gift

At first I am scared to reach the age of above 20.
I’ll be officially 21 years old hours from now but it seems
that I am not even excited at all.
I search the net using this question “Why 21^st birthday is important”
because it is so awkward that I am not even a bit excited,
anticipated nor enthusiastic about it.

I also search for the best gifts to receive, ha-ha.
I know what is the best gift to receive during birthdays that is – the gift of life.
I am so thankful for that to our dearest God and to all the saints in the world.
I can feel God is with me especially during bad times.
I can even appreciate God’s mysterious ways to make us realize Him.
Raining, for me, is God’s way of showing His sadness for the bad things that happened.
There are times when I feel that after having such an awful event, raining occurs.
That way I can feel how God is so sad for the expected or
unexpected turn of event into a bad, dark one.
For that I love Him, not only because I can feel Him but for His existence in my heart.
Even if the shadow of my past sorrows wasn’t totally erased,
I know that deep inside me reside the full-bloomed overflowing love for God.
And I know for the fact that the best gift is Life.

But I asked for more gifts from God because I know that the gift
would help me experience life at its fullest, make me stronger and independent,
gain some wisdom through travel, share my innermost thoughts, love people,
enjoy life outside my comfort zone and the greatest reason of all,
not that I want to be sound so dramatic but I want to complete my life,
a life with my mother.
Psychologically speaking I am an incomplete person because
I desire to experience life with a mother beside me.

But thank God I am not a weak person. I guess I am EQ high and IQ average.
I also have a strong soul to survive every problem that would eventually arise.
I also take the role of Big sister in the family he-he.
Exhausting yet fulfilling.

Today I am looking forward for tomorrow not because I can sense that joy and happiness
would prevail over the scared age-conscious me.

Gracias for reading my post. Bear with me coz I’m turning 21!

Gotta go to school now.. adios!

How to Celebrate Your 21st Birthday

Turning 21 is a monumental event, and should be celebrated accordingly. At 21, you're officially an adult and legal to consume alcohol. The important thing is that you have fun and celebrate safely, among friends. Read on to learn more.

Step1

Go to your local driver's license facility and get rid of that ID that says "under 21." Replace it with your new grown-up license or ID card so there's no question when you legally enter your favorite bar or club. This is your first official celebratory duty on your 21st birthday.

Step2

Purchase your first legal bottle of alcohol. Now that you can buy it legally you can splurge on quality alcohol that won't give you a hangover and prevent you from making it to work on time. As an adult and responsible drinker, you can spend money on quality alcohol because its no longer about quantity. Buy enough to celebrate with your nearest and dearest.

Step3

Call everyone you know and remind them that today is the big day and no excuse will be accepted for failure to appear. Round up the troops for a small celebration at your place with the alcohol you legally purchased.

Step4

Make a wish and engage in a birthday shot with your friends. It is customary that on your 21st birthday you do at least one shot. Don't go overboard, you want to live to see the day after your 21st birthday.

Step5

Hit your favorite watering hole. Take your friends and go to the nearest place in town to get quality cocktails and dinner. Don't make your 21st birthday an all-liquid day. Eat, drink and be merry on your 21st birthday.

hidden rainbow

can you see it?
i took this pic when i went to Oriental Mindoro
inside the tricycle..
it was a fast shot
but still i got it..



can you see it now?

clue: you will find treasure in the end of it

for me, the said "treasure" is happiness.

realization:

There will always be happiness at the end of every problem.
Every journey has its destination, it can end with happiness, fulfillment.
Don’t judge a person by his/her physical aspect; see his/her inner soul.

Devil beside you OST - Ai Mei by Rainie Yang

Ai Me
by Rainie Yang
Devil Beside You OST

Ambiguous let people feel wronged
Could not find the evidence of loving each other
When should go forward, when should give up
Even do not have courage to hug

Ambiguous make people become greedy
Until waiting lost its means
Pity that me and you could not write out an ending
To put the regretful beauty

Only can accompany you till here
Afterall there are some disallow matters
Surpassing friendship still not reaching the love stage
The scenery in the distant location is going to rain

Should or should not cry
Thinking too much I still think of you
I feel very inconvincing
and starting to doubt
Is the person in front of me the same real you

Bambino OST - We can make it by Arashi

We can make it

Bambino OST
>link<

I can't even recall passing days
in my life, everyday
How much longer will I continue
on this path?
The rhythm in your body
Yeah
Will turn into flapping wings
Yeah
Insecure pursuance
Yeah
So precious that it pains me
We can make it true!
Your real dream is always beside you
In the vast endless world,
there was only one that shined
My dream, my dream
We can make it, we can make it

my lucky star OST - Dui Wang by Jimmy Lin

happiness

Happiness is a process.

First, you should learn how to accept happiness.

You should be willing to accept the feelings/emotion that constitutes happiness. You are aware of things that will eventually happen for the sake of happiness. Happiness doesn’t mean for your own sake, it may be for the sake of other person in which in the end both of you will benefit the fruit of an action or decision, which is happiness, even if it means sacrifice, acceptance, big decision, unexpected event or darkness.

Second, don’t regret your decision to be happy.

For every action there is an equal reaction. This is the law of inertia. This law explains my point. Don’t be afraid to face every action that you have made for the sake of happiness.

Lastly, feel, enjoy and treasure your happiness.

A person may bring lots of happiness to you so treasure her/him. These can also bring happiness to one’s life; pets, things that you collect, food, internet stuff, friends, relative and most of all God our creator.

There is no one in this planet that can give miracles which may bring greater happiness to you except God. He can turn possible the impossible events.

I realized that greater happiness, the everlasting happiness is within my reach.

He is patiently waiting for my hand to hold.

He is waiting for us to be with him in a place where darkness is impossible.

Wherein there is light, there is a greater everlasting happiness.

There is smile for our soul.

how to be happy

Nobody is happy all the time, but some people are definitely more fulfilled than others, and it doesn't seem to have much to do with material goods or high achievement---things many people spend a lot of their time worrying about. So what do they have that you don't?

Steps:

1. Relax. Lighten up. Don't take yourself too seriously. Try not to over analyze things. Stress can cause many mental, physical, and spiritual problems in your life. One of the major causes of stress is worrying about things that are out of your control. Learn to recognize these things and if you can truly do nothing about them, then just let them go. Take time to laugh at yourself and the situations you find yourself in. Laughter is a powerful, positive medicine and the calmer and more peaceful you can take things, the happier your life will be. It wouldn't be life if some bad things don't happen.
2. Smile. You would be surprised how much of an immediate difference physically smiling has on your mood, if you smile and force a little laugh you will feel your mood lighten and you won't have to force it next time.
3. Take the good with the bad. No one is happy all the time. Everyone has something of sorrow intermingled with the gladness of life. The trick is to make the laughter outweigh the tears. We cannot change the past, but we can enjoy today, and look to the future. If we are prepared to take ownership for the past and accept that everything that's happened in our life, good and bad, has made us the person we are - the battle is half won.
4. Be thankful. A key component of happiness is acceptance - learning to be grateful for what you have. A lot of people know it but don't keep it in their minds. Comparing your life with others' is dangerous. Accept the gifts you have and know that no one is better than or less than anyone else's. Keep a "gratitude journal". Every day, write down a few things that you are thankful for and then review what you have written in past entries. It's a great way to remind yourself to be thankful for what you have and to boost your mood.
5. Be yourself. Much criticism is caused by people who are discontented with themselves, not with you. One way to get in touch with yourself is through journaling, diaries or (lately) blogs. Your goal may be to open up completely to yourself and learn to be your own best friend by being completely honest with yourself. What do you want out of life? What makes you truly happy? Who do you want to be?
6. Pursue goals that make u happy. Strive for long term goals rather than short term satisfaction. It's very easy to gain short term satisfaction--a quick high, a fast relief from your current problems (such as drugs, alcohol, sex). But it is what it is, a "short term" satisfaction, and the effects die out very soon, leaving you with an empty feeling that is sometimes worse than before. Set long term goals, goals which take time, thought, and effort to achieve. This will make you continually work towards improving yourself bit by bit and will give you the satisfaction of bringing a permanent change in your life.
7. Focus on the Objective. If the thoughts you are thinking are not giving you that 'good feeling', then think about something else that will make you feel good in that moment. Observe your thoughts and ideas consistently throughout the day (diary/journal if possible). Sometimes this may not be as easy as you think if you are stuck in a "destructive" train of thought and your brain chemicals are getting fired up and forming "anxiety or anger" thoughts. Anxiety, fear and anger patterns can be interrupted by focusing on something else. This will dissipate the rush of chemicals that are making you feel bad. Immediately then go back to picturing scenes/remembering things/imagining, planning stuff that makes you feel good.
8. Develop healthy relationships.
   
   
   • Family. If you want a stronger relationship with your family, you're going to need to be honest with them. Tell your family about your life and don't insult them - it hurts them just as much as it hurts you to be insulted. If you are in an abusive family, you must find a way to stop the abuse and that may include separation.
   • Have a healthy relationship. If you're dating, get involved with activities that reflect who you are, and get to know people who like the things you do. Get involved with someone who loves life and pursues happiness the way you do. If you're in a relationship, strive to make that relationship healthy.
     
   • Choose your friends carefully. Nearly everyone needs someone who cares for them and treats them well. If you have friends who are treating you badly, or are not supportive of you and your goals to improve your life, then ditch them and find friends that do care about you. If you can't find any friends like that in your current circumstances, then look elsewhere. If you're feeling sad, there's nothing like going out with your friends to make you feel better. Surround yourself with friends who are beneficial, encouraging, and helpful. We all need this continuing, nurturing encouragement to make solid desired progress in life.
9. Make someone else happy.When you're feeling powerless to create happiness in your life, do something to make someone else--anyone--happy, and you'll remember how easy it really can be. Isn't it true the happiest people we know are typically the ones who for some foolish reason are always ready to give you the clothes off their back? And frequently it is true that the most discontented people are the ones who are selfish, demanding, and inconsiderate of others. The happiest days of our lives, when we really dig down deep, is when we see the smile on the face of a person who we care about. Even helping a stranger can remind you of how much you really have, because of how much you can give. Serve at a rescue mission and you will learn the meaning of "I cried because I had no shoes and then I met a man who had no feet."

WARNING:

• Happiness requires balance. Don't become so caught up in your own happiness that you forget about everyone else's. And don't base your own happiness on making others feel good; people-pleasers are usually very unhappy on the whole.
• Even in the most terrible times, do not turn to alcohol, drugs, or anything else that is addictive, abusive to the health of you or others. Bad habits grow like weeds - they are easy to get, but hard to get rid of. Many addictive "solutions" can make your problems much worse.

National Grandparents Day

September 7 is the National Grandparents Day
For my beloved Lolo Delfin and Lola Tasing..
happy lolo/lola's day!!!
I love you and thank you for everything..

Lolo & Lola

I can’t repay the lessons That you taught when I was small.

Or give you gift for gift The daily treasures I recall...

I can’t return encouragement And loving words of praise.

In quite the way you did for me Through all my childhood days.

But there is one gift that I can give, It’s all the love you’ve earned.

For love is what you always taught... And love is what I learned.

GIFTS

The best gift that I asked from God since 2005 is a visa, so that I could finally live with my mom in London. But since I wasn’t able to pass the interview last November 2005, here I am dreaming about this place for so long, that I almost give up. The alternative plan is to stay here in the Philippines and pursue a law career, to be a successful lawyer. But lately I find it too dull; to study for the straight 13 years of my life then another 4 years for law proper. I need to have a break, to experience life, to fail, to succeed, to know the essence of life.

Today is September 4, 2008. I am turning 21 on September 26, 2008. For the previous years of my life I am excited when the month of September comes because it means party, celebration, cake, ice cream, spaghetti and gifts. But right now I am not excited because I am in my 20’s already and that means 9 more years left for me to be 30 years old.

2005 was a memorable year for me because that year I cried a thousand times. That year I lost my faith. I can’t accept the decision of the embassy. I was so down. I felt so sorry for my mom because she sacrificed a lot and even expected me to pass the interview. She dreamed of having one of her child to accompany her during those hard times of living alone in London. That year my parents’ marriage was divorced.

I didn’t want this post to be so dramatic. I just want to post a photo of some of the fabulous places that I want to see if ever given a chance.

22 days from now and I will be 21 years old. Now, I am also asking God for these gifts.

This is my main destination. London.

London Bridge
I'll cross this bridge when I get there. hehe ofcourse(",)

London Eye

The top of the world (",)

Trench Coat
The bonus gift. I would wear this in London.

The Sagrada de Familiar
This is the first place that I want to see in Barcelona, Spain. Spain will be my first destination.

how to love

Love is a strange thing. It can be the most amazing feeling in the world, or it can really hurt, but in the end love is something most, if not all of us, will face. While there are many different ways to define love and there are many different ways to love someone (even yourself), here is a general guide to loving.

Steps:

1. Say it. When you say the words "I Love You," do they carry it with them the desire to show someone you love them or do they carry it with them is it what you want to feel? And when you say it make sure you really mean it and are willing to do anything for that special person.
2. Empathize. Put yourself in someone else's shoes. Rather than impose your own expectations or attempt to control them, try to understand how they feel, where they come from, and who they are; and realize how they could also love you back just as well.
3. Love unconditionally. If you cannot love another person without attaching stipulations, then it is not love at all, but deep-seated opportunism (one who makes the most of an advantage, often unmindful of others). If your interest is not in the other person as such, but rather in how that person can enhance your experience of life, then it is not unconditional. If you have no intention of improving that person’s life, or allowing that person to be themselves and accepting them as they are, and not who you want them to be, then you are not striving to love them unconditionally.
4. Expect nothing in return. That doesn't mean you should allow someone to mistreat or undervalue you. It means that giving love does not guarantee receiving love. Try loving just for loving's sake. Realize that someone may have a different way of showing his or her love for you; do not expect to be loved back in exactly the same way.
5. Realize it can be lost. If you realize that you can lose the one you love, then you have a greater appreciation of what you have. Think how lucky you are to have someone to love.

I’m back to blogging.

Before I sleep (its 4:38am) I would like to share these 3 things that currently stuck in my mind:

1. 1.Never stop walking. Never be contented in your dull life. Enjoy life. Understand the essence of life. TRAVEL.

2. 2.Learn to understand things. Know your neighbor. Listen to others. Be open. Socialize. Communicate. LEARN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE.

3. 3.Don’t give up. Stand straight. Focus. Let God help you. There is always a way, a solution. Time can help solve your problem. BE STRONG.
