In My Own World

It's kinda bit late but I'm posting this anyway. Better late than never, right?  This is about how I spent my last 22 days of being a 22-year-old. Some days were just like the other days but there were also some unusual happenings. Far from my ordinary kind of day.  So here's how it went:  Day 1: Today I got to eat one of my favorite viands, pork caldereta cooked by my mother.  Day2: Happy tummy early this morning because I had my favorite breakfast, pancit canton with sunny side up egg.  Day 3: I packed lots of peanut adobo today. And it was so tiring. LOL. It's for our sari-sari store, by the way.  Day 4: Yey. Pizza. Two slices of pizza for today and an ice cream. And for the first time in the history, I went downtown wearing my "pambahay" outfit. Shocks!!! Can you even imagine that? And take note, we ran at the mall. Thank God I didn't see anyone who recognized me.  Day 5: Today the thing that made me happy was our snack. Together with mother and ...

Since in just a few hours I'm going to bid my goodbye to a 22-year-old me and will be welcoming my 23rd, allow me to have my farewell words. LOL.  Few days after I turned 22, I got a call for a job interview. I thought that, that would be my birthday gift. I thought God will answer my prayer but I was wrong. It's still not my time to shine, at least not just yet. Another rejection it is. But I take it as a redirection of God for me.  Then the days went by and I can already feel the spirit of Christmas. Last Christmas was different for us. Because we had our exchange gifts together with my family. It's our first time actually to do that. And thanks for the little kiddo, Elijah, who suggested that. He's my nephew and my godson, by the way. Though we're not complete, still we pushed it through just for fun. So we had our exchange gifts and during our Noche Buena, I really had a good time. That was the time that I laughed so hard that my stomach hurts from too much ...

April 30-May 1,2014 This "short summer getaway" was supposed to be last April 11,2014 but due to the conflict of schedules it was moved and moved and moved to indefinite dates. Because we're just only four in the group and we don't want someone to be left behind we find the right date where we can all be complete. And last April 30-May 1, 2014 it pushed through.  Night before this, akala ko hindi ako makakasama due to some personal reason na ayoko nang banggitin pa. Hanggang sa mga huling oras bago ako umalis undecided pa din. Akala ko talaga hindi na naman matutuloy. Ang tagal na kasing plano ito. Palipat-lipat ng date kasi nga hindi magkatugma-tugma ang schedule. Tapos heto na naman mauudlot na naman at ako pa ang magiging dahilan. Kaya naman hindi ako pumayag na hindi matuloy at ipinaglaban ko ang dapat ipaglaban. Chos.  So ayon....natuloy din sa wakas. A short getaway from reality. Sandaling nalimutan ang mga bagay-bagay. Sandaling nagpakasaya at nagpakalayo sa re...

Nakaka-miss yong ganitong season. Month of May. Alay o Flores de Mayo naman sa iba. Nong bata pa ako, siguro mga Grade-V hanggang sa mag High School ako, ang saya lang kapag bakasyon at sumasapit ang ganitong buwan. Laro-laro lang. Nong Grade-V kasi ako nag transfer na ako ng school at lumipat na kami dito sa Batangas. So ayon. Naiwan ang mga nakasanayan. Pero tuwing bakasyon naman, umuuwi kami ng Tingloy at don nagbabakasyon. Ang saya lang kapag ganitong season. Uuwi kami don. Tapos maglalaro lang maghapon. Maliligo sa dagat. Hindi baleng walang internet, basta may mga kalaro. Buhay na buhay na ako. Kasi nong mga panahong yon andon pa mga pinsan ko tapos mga ibang kalaro. So ayon. Tamang laro lang. Tumbang preso, prisoner, badang, habulan at kung anu-ano pa. Tapos maliligo sa dagat, masaya kapag me bangka na andon sa dagat kasi nakakasakay kami don sa katig at don nakatambay. O di kaya naman nong me balsa pa, pumupunta kami don at don kami tumatambay habang naliligo sa dagat. Me dala ...

Crush, puppy love, soulmate o isang malaking KABALIWAN??? Hanggang sa mga oras na ito ay isang malaking katanungan pa rin sa akin kung ano ka nga ba talaga sa buhay ko. Puppy love, soulmate, friend(???), dating classmate o ano? Basta sure ako don sa "dating classmate." LOL We've been classmates for only four years. Elementary days......so let's consider the fact that we're still young then,  walang kamalayan pa masyado sa mundo. Hindi pa tayo aware sa nga nangyayari, maaaring iniisip natin noon na oo, alam na natin at naiintindihan na natin ang mga bagay-bagay, akala natin alam na natin lahat at iniisip natin na aware na talaga tayo at may sapat na tayong kaalaman sa mga nararamdaman at ginagawa natin. Pero let's stick to the fact na we were just kids way back then.  Pero diba, sa mga bata usong-uso ang salitang "crush". "Crush is paghanga", "DAW". Pero ano namang kahanga-hanga sa'yo??? Pero nong mga panahong yon, kahit bata p...

After your graduation and still you cannot find a job, many thoughts will come to your mind. Mga naiisip mo na di naman dapat isipin. Mga bagay na nakaka-frustrate. Mga ayaw mong isipin and yet you can't help but think kasi kusa syang pumapasok sa isip mo kahit ayaw mo.
