I was texted by my friend to listen to them and he had this feeling its so "me".
Singing is one of the things that busied me even before i go so deep into what I do.
I use to have a band might be the proper way to call it.
Although we never made it public or had any gig.
Whatever.
But it was one of the exciting part of my life.

Moving on, I did like the song he recommended.
I love the burst of sunshine thing going on.Alhabeat is a Danish Pop Band from Silkeborg in Denmark. Their debut single "Fascination" was a major hit in Denmark during the summer of 2007 and a significant hit in the UK in 2008. A second single, "10,000 nights of Thunder" (or just "10,000 Nights" in the UK) saw equal success, and their eponymous debut album went platinum in Denmark, and in the UK, the album has gone gold. Selling over 100,000 copies and their 3 top 20 singles selling in the region of 400,000 all together.

It was fast and fun. Very upper especially in the morning. LOL
I need this most of the time. hahaha...
Hope you guys would like it too.

Alphabeat is love!

I woke up today by the cold air blowing this morning.
It was not my sweat that got me waking up this time even though summer is in reach.
or it is summer?

Morning rains makes me nostalgic.
As nostalgic as dreaming awake that I still go to school.
It was weird.

I kept on thinking what are the subjects I must attend to,
what must be done?
I was the freaky about my subjects.
Can say I was a great student  2 years ago.(at least I felt like it)

Anyhow, morning walks in the dripping rain made me reminisce I was walking
to school wearing my mid-length boots with red lace and leg warmer inside.
I used to have long walks looking down on my boots as it touches muddy puddles.
My long blonde hair was semi-damp
I remember going in inside the classroom looking for familiar faces,
greeting them and sharing stories of randomness,
Shaking from the cold air brought by the weather as well as the air-conditioner.

I was a student.
Still striving, dreaming, over-enthused, passionate, about what I can
contribute in this world as an artist.
I still am.

P.S.
I know why I got this dream.
Its majorly because the Fine Arts Advertising students are going to have an
exhibit in MOA today starting 5pm and Im going to be there.
and that the UE boys are once again left outside the campus for sporting long locks. lol.

I just love Brit music nowadays.
Seems like along with the tartans/plaids comes Brit music admiration.
As dry as they are, going nostalgic and retro is the way to go.
Whatever.

A friend of mine told me he sense me singing in this song.
I think he's right, I love it!

Busy was the only word that prevailed.
I ate work this week as how my friend state it! Yay!

Anyhow, it was a very awesome week.
I felt the rush I love again.
I got paid for doing something I like.
What joy! LOL

I had cut hair this week like crazy as well as make up sessions.
Wooot!!!!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I accompanied a new friend into shopping hair products, cosmetics,
and as well as body lotions! LOL
I dunno, I totally like these random stuff I do.
And we arranged her wide variety of cosmetics
after she learned that my magestic make up set was cool according to her,

She has tons she doesn't know she has.LOL
What a waste of money
Told her if she doesnt use all of them everyday, might as well give it to friends.
Especially if she wants to usher in new ones.

+++++++++++++++++++++++
Anyhow, God did made my budget for Macbook higher than I expected this week.
But ironically it was sold.
I know He has better plans! He should!

According to a dear friend o' mine, as we take on pill of life everyday
we manage to talk about mature stuff and yes eventually let go of
some things that doesn't work anymore with our system.

I guess that pill worked on us.
Made me ponder greatly and yes appreciate again who I am and what I have,
that never ending adventure of accepting my fate.

Speaking of accepting one fate,

I remember our trip to Baguio where strawberries are served in "taho"
and strawberry shakes are not impossible to have.
Before I get drifted by my enthusiasm on "pasalubong" foods which I glutton much
I'm going back on my topic.

I miss my friend who's been so inspirational and helpful to me also during HS.
He was inconsistent, self absorbed, immature, (enter slightly negative adjective here).
has many friends more than I did back then, has more funds,

He was misguided by beliefs and a prisoner of immaturity very much that time.
(I was too, to be exact)
He was really a good person inside.

Surprisingly,
Things has changed now, he's struggling in a good way through life.
He learned many things about its roughness
and lives a very opposite of what he did.
a total flip of fate.

I think he was a brilliant student back then
but when you lack the fund to do what you want, its different. Its really different.
Its a learning and a humbling experience.

Thankfully, he's accepted what his life is now and continues to make the most out of it.

I guess that's what counts.


No ones a victim anymore if we think we're all survivors.

Im still in the process of collecting my sidelines and collabs for my crafts.
Wait for it! ^_^

So far am very pleased with all of my work.
I am my biggest fan!
And I do make sure I do great for my clients.
I must.

Its ok to feel fear for me everytime I face a new gig,
It helps me be grounded and strive to work harder and beat my record.

Am glad they do go back.
From make up sessions to haircut and hair coloring.
I love it! I love that rush.
Its tiring but its something I like a lot.

I have plans on raising my service rates on haircut sometime next month also
and my paraphernalia's volume.
Am saving now for a Macbook.
I hope I do get it this time.
 
I dont have any documentations with me most of the time when I do hair
but I hope I can also purchase
a digicam atleast to record it. DSLR is so not the way to go.
I might kill my arms bringing my make up and all or my hair tools bag all at the same time.
Thank God they do go back and refer me. ^_^

Refferal is love!

Am still very amazed and thankful everytime God brings me closer to my dream.

It always amaze me how we get to meet one person and next thing we knew
they bought a lot and built a house deep in our heart.
Some are effortless and plain lovable, some are a hard nut to crack and read,
some are just angels, some are just influentially ground breaking.

Regardless of how, when, where, what for and why, there will always be the fact that
we are just human beings struggling to find our niche in this world trying to:
cope, help, ask for help, touch, feel, relate,
explain the mysteries we're searching for,
learn, even spell out ones fault for them to learn
or taking a risk.

Its a never ending learning cycle for us who exist.
Thing is, we revolve in one axis of existence.
Your actions affect the place we thrive to live on.
 
As far as affecting people is concerned,
There are many people i want to put up a house and I admit it crossed my mind
and actually went grabbing a shovel for my space.

In my dedication to this form of art,
Some worked with intense hard work, some lasted, some never did.
Its like a game, who puts on the best poker face wins immunity to the hurt.
And sometimes like a monopoly game who spends too many cash buys more lot and houses
the bigger the chance they wont get bankrupt with love.
But that doesn't mean they cant get destroyed or buried through time.

I still think its frickin awesome if id be a landowner of many
But then again, I must learn that as much as I want to stay in other peoples heart,
its not I who decide that.
Its the person who owns that piece of land I want to build on. 

I am very thankful that even though where I own a piece of land in other peoples heart are few,
I never felt completely alone anymore.
All I know is that God never failed to surprise me with sunny blessings.
So, its time to move on for I know I am loved.

You never cease to amaze me with your musings of details on life
how you try to convince me its nothing like a blush
What can I do?

Its your call to do harm on yourself.
To put heartaches on your chest.
Its like i havent told you before.
Stop playing with fire.

Act like a fool defending your ego,
Putting a mini show for the crew,
pull a stunt if you like
I couldnt care anymore.
Goodluck!

For me, its very interesting to know and realize why others don't seem to
correctly spell why in the world its hard to appreciate my act of love

Is it that hard?

Am I that complicated?

Until I bumped into watching 700 club in Qtv11.
They're talking about relationship and mentioned Love Languages.

Since we all have different background and identity,
its not shocking to know we have our own choices of personal expressions.
So think what form of Love Language it is your partner speaks of as well as yours
Anyhow, my research allowed me to learn them somehow.

You see there are 5  Love Languages according to Gary Chapman.

Words of Affirmation

Verbal appreciation speaks powerfully to persons whose primary Love Language is “Words of Affirmation.”  Simple statements, such as, “You look great in that suit,” or “You must be the best baker in the world! are sometimes all a person needs to hear to feel loved.

Aanother way to communicate through “Words of Affirmation” is to offer encouragement.  Here are some examples: reinforcing a difficult decision; calling attention to progress made on a current project; acknowledging a person’s unique perspective on an important topic. If a loved one listens for “Words of Affirmation,” offering encouragement will help him or her to overcome insecurities and develop greater confidence.

Quality Time
Quality time is more than mere proximity. It’s about focusing all your energy on your mate Unless all of your attention is focused on your mate, even an intimate dinner for two can come and go without a minute of quality time being shared.

Quality conversation is very important in a healthy relationship. It involves sharing experiences, thoughts, feelings and desires in a friendly, uninterrupted context. A good mate will not only listen, but offer advice and respond to assure their mate they are truly listening. Many mates don’t expect you to solve their problems. They need a sympathetic listener.

An important aspect of quality conversation is self-revelation. In order for you to communicate with your mate, you must also be in tune with your inner emotions. It is only when you understand your emotions and inner feelings will you then be able to share quality conversation, and quality time with your mate.

Quality activities are a very important part of quality time. Many mates feel most loved when they spend physical time together, doing activities that they love to do. Spending time together will bring a couple closer, and, in the years to come, will fill up a memory bank that you can reminisce about in the future.
Whether it’s sitting on the couch and having a brief conversation or playing together in a tennis league, quality time is a love language that is shared by many. Setting aside focused time with your mate will ensure a happy marriage.

Receiving Gifts
Some mates respond well to visual symbols of love. If you speak this love language, you are more likely to treasure any gift as an expression of love and devotion. People who speak this love language often feel that a lack of gifts represents a lack of love from their mate. Luckily, this love language is one of the easiest to learn.

If you want to become an effective gift giver, many mates will have to learn to change their attitude about money. If you are naturally a spender, you will have no trouble buying gifts for your mate. However, a person who is used to investing and saving their money may have a tough time adjusting to the concept of spending money as an expression of love. These people must understand that you are investing the money not in gifts, but in deepening your relationship with your mate.

The gift of self is an important symbol of love. Sometimes all your mate desires is for someone to be there for them, going through the same trials and experiencing the same things. Your body can become a very powerful physical symbol of love.

These gifts need not to come every day, or even every week. They don’t even need to cost a lot of money. Free, frequent, expensive, or rare, if your mate relates to the language of receiving gifts, any visible sign of your love will leave them feeling happy and secure in your relationship.

Acts of Service
Sometimes simple chores around the house can be an undeniable expression of love. Even simple things like laundry and taking out the trash require some form of planning, time, effort, and energy. Just as Jesus demonstrated when he washed the feet of his disciples, doing humble chores can be a very powerful expression of love and devotion to your mate.

Very often, both pairs in a couple will speak to the Acts of Service Language. However, it is very important to understand what acts of service your mate most appreciates. Even though couples are helping each other around the house, couples will still fight because the are unknowingly communicating with each other in two different dialects. For example, a wife may spend her day washing the cars and walking the dog, but if her husband feels that laundry and dishes are a superior necessity, he may feel unloved, despite the fact that his wife did many other chores throughout the day. It is important to learn your mate’s dialect and work hard to understand what acts of service will show your love.

It is important to do these acts of service out of love and not obligation. A mate who does chores and helps out around the house out of guilt or fear will inevitably not be speaking a language of love, but a language of resentment. It’s important to perform these acts out of the kindness of your heart.

Demonstrating the acts of service can mean stepping out of the stereotypes. Acts of service require both mates to humble themselves into doing some chores and services that aren’t usually expected from their gender. However, these little sacrifices will mean the world to your mate, and will ensure a happy relationship.

Physical Touch
Many mates feel the most loved when they receive physical contact from their partner. For a mate who speaks this love language loudly, physical touch can make or break the relationship.

Sexual intercourse makes many mates feel secure and loved in a marriage. However, it is only one dialect of physical touch. Many parts of the body are extremely sensitive to stimulation. It is important to discover how your partner not only physically responds but also psychologically responds to these touches.

It is important to learn how your mate speaks the physical touch language. Some touches are irritating and uncomfortable for your mate. Take the time to learn the touches your mate likes. They can be big acts, such as back massages or lovemaking, or little acts such as touches on the cheek or a hand on the shoulder. It’s important to learn how your mate responds to touch. That is how you will make the most of this love language.

All marriages will experience crisis. In these cases, physical touch is very important. In a crisis situation, a hug can communicate an immense amount of love for that person. A person whose primary love language is physical touch would much rather have you hold them and be silent than offer any advice.

It is important to remember that this love language is different for everyone. What type of touch makes you feel secure is not necessarily what will make your partner happy. It is important to learn each other’s dialects. That way you can make the most of your hugging, kissing, and other physical contacts.


So, what is your Love Language?

It feels great to win an argument, a discussion,
that unfaltering smile and confidence,
Having someone feel completely dumbfounded when they ask you a question
and without batting an eyelash you got a terrific answer to say.

You know you smell and feel good.

It may give you the feeling you did not falter,
You're unbeatable
Almost infallible...
You made them feel their attack is futile.
Too petty for a great person.

This is where being great sucks.
being a smart-ass doesn't always help.
Having all the answers kills it.
It kills the excitement, it deadens everything.

They don't have the chance to feel great about themselves they look up to you highly
suddenly you'll feel alone even when they're there.

So, sometimes, its ok to lose.
Its ok to lose for the sake of your sanity,
its ok to lose to not be selfish,
Its ok to lose for your sake
Its ok to lose to realize that you're disconnected,
Its ok to lose to learn,
Its ok to lose especially if you know there's a lot of shot for you thats left,
Its ok to lose for many reasons.

I am an Artist, I prefer make things beyond normal, colorful, pretty, sometimes even surreal.
I just cant stand reading and deluding myself in medical jargon
that will spill like the wine i don't like to drink any moment.
At some point I like it though.

I'm fascinated by the way my siblings nuke their way into Medical courses.
Thick books to read, pages to memorize in a day after school, numbers and symbols that doesn't speak my tongue.

Personally, I find it great, something to be proud of,
A License for your Clan to brag about you.
Like a V.I.P. pass at an event,
Like a son/daughter who never had a fault in life.
Like a legacy but you're still above 6 feet from the ground

Its nothing I envy of, but great to have.
Nothing beats making the most of your life as you want it,
as God wants it.
Breathing, waking up knowing you're gonna do great, feel great,
Knowing that you are still complete.
No time wasted when you do your job.
Contributing to the world your way.

Its nice to rebuild a life.
Its great to save a life.
Its wonderful to give a life.
Its splendid to heal a soul.

Many play the part of healing one's soul,
touching us, spreading in our veins and rekindles our will to live.
I tell myself most of the time even at times I had an epic proportion of failure,
"It doesnt really matter most of the time if they dont understand you now
at least you changed a course of someone's life before I think its too late."
Art is good for the soul.

We all can never be licensed doctors in this life,
We all can never a great Artist like the other,
but we can contribute to make other peoples life better and colorful.
You know what to do.

The title is big enough for my entry.
Most of the time I dont know what I want so I try to rationalize with myself
most of the time.
It takes me many rounds in the mall to scout for what I like ending sometimes not buying it.
Ahhh the pain of wanting it after I went home the ending up buying it the next possible time.

My "id" most of the time gets in the way so I'd rather not purchase anything.
Most of the time I look penniless to friends since I keep saving up for many stuff
I want/need in my life.
Being a self-confessed Jack of all trades doesn't really make things simpler for me.
It makes deciding harder but the work easier.
I can do most of the stuff but getting to that point sometimes takes a long road.
I hope you guys are getting me.

Anyhow, I found myself stumbled upon a something i want since I'm also narcissistic,
I cant help but to want it.
The thing is, its a want. Not a need.
It makes a lot of difference.

I want a BJD to make a mini me.
But the fund wont allow it that much since its expensive enough to buy me
studio lights which I need, a lens, a laptop...
Crap, Im not really sure if I can benefit from it after wards.
All I know is that I can make it my subject in photo shoots, I can do the make up, the clotes I can design them and the doll I can sell it.

But, what is it that I really need?
Ofcourse its my photograhy infused materials. not a doll.

The reason I got convinced on saving up for a Vaio or Mac is the color and the style.
The price? also that, but that came after wards.
Im such a sucker for mediocre functions most of the time for a better Aesthetics.
Good thing I research and look for a better deal most of the time.

So, the moral would be: Do Your Research.
Know yourself better, take survey quizzes on personality and take time to buy.
Being an impulse buyer doesnt make you look wise.
Youll get the tingling sensation when you know its the right time to buy it.
If you find yourself too hyped over something, take time and pause and ask yourself whether if its something you need or want.

Last night, I had an LSS na matindi at corny.
Its was Trouble by Shampoo.LOL
"uh-oh we're in trouble, nanananna....burst our bubble yeah yeah...uh-oh.LOL
Then I stumbled upon this sa page ni Marien.
• Masaya ka kapag naglalaro ka ng Tex at Pog. Kadalasan ang design dito ay yung mga palabas sa TV, mga drama o kaya anime, may dialogue pa. lol. (I collect them. LOL and even personlize some of the pogs. LOL I buy a whole carton of it sa palengke to get the free poster on top of it.)

• May comics pa ang bazooka. Kahit di mo maintindihan yung Fortune Cookie sa huli ay collection mo pa rin yun. ever did understood it pero i enjoyed that gum and even sticked it sa ulo ng kapatid ko, ofcourse he fought back and sticked some on my head too.)

• Uso pa yung tirador, yung gawa talaga sa sanga ng puno.
(Then came along ang mga plastic na gun na hollow na babalahan mo ng sandamukal na goma. I never did played it with my other friends. Alam ko papanget ako at pikon ako masyado to play those games before. LOL)

• Ang mga babae naglalaro ng paper dolls na tigpipiso bawat isang set sa sari-sari store. (Isama mo na dyan ang ulo ng mga artista na sina sheryl cruz, manylyn reynes, carmina villaruel, Ana Roces at sama mo na si Thalia at sampu ng iba pang artista, di rin mawawala ang nakapack)

• Kung lalake ka, siguradong may pellet gun ka.
(Wala, mga kapatid ko meron, alam ko tlga masakit yon. Nakikipag habulan sila sa mga kalaro nila uuwi ng may pasa.LOL)

• Humihingi ka ng dalawang piso sa magulang mo para maglaro ng video arcade sa sari-sari store. Favorite mo yung Sonic, Mario at Street Fighter at Tetris.
(Korek. Manghihingi ako sa mga tito at tita ko para maraming pera panlaro.LOL Fan ako ng maraming korni na games noon sama mo na jan ang astig na kung fu game at ninja na natalon sa mga puno at nambabato ng shuriken sa enemies nya.)

• Nagwa-watusi ka kapag New Year kahit pinapagalitan ka ng nanay mo. (Kung kelan merong panahon. Good thing I know you can die from them.)

• Meron kang sapatos na umiilaw yung swelas kapag iniaapak mo. Mas sikat kung iba-iba yung kulay. (Bakit looser ako, I was aroung when this thing was a hit pero wla ako. Alam ko lang akin madalas ang pula sa kapatid kong ka-age ko ang blue kontrata yan.)

• Merong at least isang Chicago Bulls na shirt sa bahay nyo. Madalas number 23 pa yung nakalagay. (Yes, si kuya ay mahilig sa basket ball at thing nya yun. Artsy lang tlga ako.)

• Pinapatulog ka ng yaya/nanay mo tuwing tanghali o hapon para raw lumaki. Hindi na kasi pinapatulog ang mga bata ngayon tuwing tanghali di tulad nung panahon natin.
(Amen. Ilang iyak din ang ginawa ko para di maktulog sa hapon ah.)

• Sinasabihan ka ng matatanda na may lalabas na pari o bigas sa sugat mo kapag hindi nilagyan ng alcohol pero in the end, betadine lang ang magpapatahimik sa inyo.
(Sama mo na ang tren!)

• Kung babae ka, nagkaroon ka ng butterfly hairclips/rings. (si Jolina ang nagpauso nito.) haha. (I remember my sister wearing a few!)

• Kung medyo may pera ang pamilya nyo, nagpabili ka ng Polly Pocket. (la, kasi si kapatid kong babe ay barbie and kinalakihan.)

• Naglalagay ka ng Kisses (yung mabango) sa pencil case mo, o kaya sa isang lalagyan na may bulak, alcohol at tinutusok ng karayom para mabilis manganak.
(na wala namang scientific explanation kung totoo nga ba sya at alam natin na marami sya kulay iba iba ang amoy nya. Astig ka kung binubudburan mo ang pencil case mo ng ganito.)

• May free stickers ng Disney movies sa loob ng Maggi noodles. (Hihihi...those were the golden times na masaya ang maggi masyado at panalo, bee it disney characters, lion king, Alladin basta marami silang pakana na da best tlga!)

• Pinapatunog mo yung takip ng Gatorade.
(Up to now.)

• Ang mga stationeries na uso: Papemelroti, Tsukuba, Sashikibuta. Pwedeng ibenta, pwedeng trade lang. (Lahat ng klase, kolektahan yan. Paramihan na parang di mo naman susulatan. Naalala ko ang kaklase ko sa bag nya puros yun ang laman. LOL Anak sya ng teacher.hahaha...)

• Pampalipas oras mo dati ang paglalaro ng Brick Game, at swerte yung mga may advanced version na may tumatagos na blocks para mapuno na yung gap sa loob. Mas advanced ka kung Tamagotchi ang nilalaro mo. Pinapakain mo, pinapatulog mo, at inililibing mo kung namatay na. At kung talagang kaya nyong bumili, Game Boy ang sayo. Pero kung wala ka talaga, yung laruan na lang na may tubig sa loob tapos dapat ma-shoot mo yung mga bilog sa stick na maliit.
(Lahat yan kasi gamer kami masyado noon. Sama mo na ang atari, at game and watch kahit 80's pa yun. Basta astig sa bayan ang "fami-com" aka family computer. Ang sad di binaggit ang snake.

• Bago magsimula ang klase, nakikilaro ka muna sa 10-20, jackstone, langit lupa, ice water, taguan, dr. quack quack, tumbang preso, pepsi seven up at agawan base. Di bale nang madumi na ang uniform mo pagpasok ng classroom. (AMEN. Pati uwian at break.)

• Sinasabi mo sa kaklase mo na "Liars go to hell" kapag tingin mo nagsisinungaling sya. "Cross my heart, hope to die" kapag nangangako ka. "Period no erase" kapag gusto mo walang kumontra sayo. Kaya lang wala kang lusot kapag sinabi ng kaklase mo na "Akin yung factory ng pambura". (Ahehehe...up to now pag trip lang. Meron pa yang hand gestures para dama ng lahat ang sinasabi mo. Sama mo ang pagsasabi ng "shield" pag ayaw mong mapunta ang sinasabi nyang masama sayo. At wag ka narin papahakbang sa tao kasi di ka na lalaki.)

• Sikat ka pag ang pencil case mo nabubuksan sa dalawang side tapos maraming attachments like magnifying lens, book stand, compartments na maliliit tapos push button pa. Minsan sa ibabaw ng pencil case meron pang maze, may maliit na silver na bola tapos itatagilid mo yung pencil case para gumulong yun, hanggang sa matapos yung maze. (Meron ako nyan. DI ako nagpahuli.hehehe pink yung aken. LOL But i still prefer the steel pencil case na merong design ng Yu Yu Hakusho. LOL)

• Di ka baduy kung ang notebook mo nung elementary ay may mukha ng artista.
(Wala kang magawa nabili ka nun then iniwasan mo na kasi wala lang tlgang mabili that time. LOL Swerte ng mga bagong artisa ngayon.) 

• Sa coolman mo inilalagay ang tubig na baon mo sa school. (Uu.)

• Nagpabili ka ng Baby-G sa magulang mo. (Di kami mayaman ng ganun lang at di ako mahilig pa sa watch nun.)

• Elementary ka nung nauso ang pager. Yun pa ang pinapangarap ng mga bata, hindi pa cell phone. (I like the color though, but I dont like the hassle of calling the phone to send your message.)

• Meron ka pa rin ng pinakamalaking cell phone na nakatago na ngayon sa mga kahon.
(Yup, si Ama meron. LOL Green ang kanyang letters are "liners" ang payabangan sa cellphone. Mas maraming line sa cell mo na pwedeng type-an sikat!LOL)

• Wala pang PS/PS2, XBox, Wii, atbp. noon. Family Computer pa lang, yung cartridge yung bala. Usong laro ang Mario Bros., Battle City at Rambo.
(Alam ko yan!)

• Meron ka ng isa sa mga ito: Family Computer, Nintendo, Sega, roller blades, brick game, Tamagochi, Swatch Watch w/ matching guard, Troll collection. (Uu, meron kami ng mga yan!)

• Alam mo ang mga linyang ito sa mga kanta: "Natatawa ako, hi hi hi hi", "Anong paki mo sa long hair ko", "Dahil sa bawal na gamot", "Mga kababayan ko, bilib ako sa kulay ko". (Conquered namin yan kaso I dont sing them.)

• Isa dito ay theme song mo: "I Swear" by All 4 One, "What's Up" by 4 Non Blondes (And I say, Hey ey ey ey ey ey. I said hey, What's goin on!), "Zombie" by Cranberries.
(Naman!!!!!)

(Yessss!!!! Alam ko yan!)

• Tape pa ang uso, di CD or MP3 players. Pag gusto mo yung kanta kailangan tantyahin mo kung ilang seconds i-rewind yun para mabilis paulit-ulitin. (At mahilig din akong makinig sa radyo sabay rerecord ko sya over sa tape na may record ko ng iba.)

Kami inyong ipaglaban! Sugod, sugod laban maskuman, ipaglaban nyo ang katarungan.. Sige, sige laban maskuman.." (Oo.

After months of not being employed in an office based company,
Am still living my life like a geeky rockstar! Even better~

Aside from sleeping till you have bed sores to staying late like a kid,
And earning money the same as before sometimes a tid higher.
I had some sort of dramatic evolution of jobs.
I'm surprised with what I can do, and since I have the chance to do it now.
I try to give my best every opportune time~ It's one of the breaks I like!

But I would be lying if I'm gonna say am not scared at all if
I wont be having any gig for a week.
So, I immerse myself in many random stuff I chew on.

Like:
I re-sell Ellana Mineral Make-up which I love and use myself,
Photography on events, portfolio, personal stuff, etc.,
Graphics on collaterals,
Hosting for school tours on the movie Dayo
Voice Over gig (Yes I did that!)
Make-up for fashion shows and special occassions
And my usual Hair cutting and Coloring

I guess the cons for my way of life would be not having a stable income.
and not having normal weekends and holidays since those were the time
were we do have gigs.
Meaning, less time to spend with friends who are office based.
It's sad, but I must deal with it and somehow, make some
mends whenever possible.

It was fun, and I thank God for being generous to me,
For not having me fall face flat and penniless.
And for narrowing the people I can trust and spend my life with.
Thank God, for being there for me and sending me
A great set of family and true friends.
 
Im still happy for everything.
Sweet Misery it is!

After 50 Aeons i decided to do one of my reflective posts. Sayang naman kung utak ko nlng  makikinabang tapos makakalimutan ko lang.


There would be nothing more humbling than realizing that
you don't have any perfect aspect in your life.

You can't have a perfect family, relatives, friends, office-mates, neighbors, job
and whatever possible things that might come our way.

Everything has imperfections.
Everything can falter one way or another, anytime and anywhere.
We can have a better aspect compared to other people
We cant always be happy, for some reason we just cant and we know it.

But we can always try to accept who we are
along with what and who our life are tangled with.

..besides, its never fun having a perfect life.
   Its our imperfections that makes us sensitive of other people's feelings
   Its our imperfections that makes us wiser
   Its our imperfections that makes us all closer to each other
   Its our imperfections that makes us heed to Him
   Its our imperfections that makes us Human.

So yeah, I realized that our imperfections can be a gift if we only learn to love them.
