Almost to an end…

Summer is almost coming to an end so we should enjoy whatever is left of the season. Maybe go to the beach… do that hiking or mountain climbing you’ve been planning since summer began… Or just go out of the house and walk on dry land. Whatever it is you are planning for the weekend, [...]

Hold on to hope

We may think that we are holding on to a very thin thread of hope so it’s better to give up now. But I say hold on! Hold on to that thin thread because it will coil and thicken as days go by. Hold on and see how that thin thread will eventually bring you [...]

Welcome to reality!

I rant almost all the time. It’s one of the reasons why I created a blog, to vent out my frustration with life. I need it as an outlet and I am using it to the fullest. But I know that the truth is nobody cares what happens in my life. Nobody cares if I [...]

Welcome 2012!!!

I am done with 2011. I felt so unlucky this year to tell you the truth. There were just so many negative stuff that went around in my life that I felt this year was truly tough on me. Work became scarce. Yes, there were really good ones that came but more of the good [...]

Leave everything behind

I saw this and I immediately shook my head. I couldn’t even if I would want to. Leave everything behind? Leave my family and the life I have now? I don’t think so. I may be ranting from time to time about how my life is now. How I could have done everything I wanted [...]

I love sleeping!

Yes, I do. In fact, I love being cocooned in a place to sleep there like a baby. Too bad that I don’t get as much sleep as I used to these days. It’s due to work so it’s okay with me. On weekends, I just make sure that I get to sleep longer, eight [...]

Today…

I feel like doing nothing but stare into space. Not to think but to empty my mind. I feel like my mind is full to the brim and if I don’t stop using it even for a minute, everything will spill over. I worry a lot. I think about so many things all the time. [...]

Be of help

It feels good to be of help to someone in need. I may not be able to lend the person the money she needs, I was able to lend a shoulder to cry on and ears to listen to her woes. She said it’s more than enough help and I am happy to hear it. [...]

Swearing

I don’t like anybody swearing at home. My dad grew up in a household where everyone swears a lot. It’s so hard to make him stop but we remind him when we hear him curse. Cursing or swearing at home can bring in the negative vibes, you know. Aside from the fact that it can [...]

Hurt or heal?

Words have a way of hurting if you don’t watch it. Even a simple NO can mean a broken heart. We should always try to make our words spread love and kindness. It won’t be easy, especially to those people who are used to hurting others with what they say. But we can try to [...]

Happy over productivity ☺

I feel happy over my productivity today. I am aware that I am not yet functioning at a 100% level like I used to do but at least today is very productive for me. Sure, I was slow during the morning and early afternoon but I think I made up for it in the past [...]

Enough!

So I have decided that feeling sleepy is enough! ENOUGH! I am now inspired to write again and feeling the energy surge that I need. Why? How? Well, I’ve decided that I will and I can. It’s all a matter of deciding to do it. I just lack the determination to decide but now I [...]

An outlet

I love life! I may sound so whiny and negative in this blog but the truth is I love life and I believe in being positive, being hopeful. I created this blog because I want to have an outlet, a place where I can dump the negative energy creeping in me. I’d rather dump it [...]

Cute things

I have a thing for journals, wallets/purses, notebooks/pads, sling bags and pouches. I think it was brought on by the fact that when I was a little girl and I wanted to own those cute things, we couldn’t afford it. So now that I can, I grab the cute ones whenever I see one. Right [...]

An uphill battle

‘Cause there’s always gonna be another mountain I’m always gonna wanna make it move Always gonna be a uphill battle Sometimes I’m gonna have to lose Ain’t about how fast I get there Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side It’s the climb! There are so many problems that we face in every single [...]

What makes me happy these days…

I don’t know if I should call it pathetic but hoarding books is what makes me happy these days. Call it pathetic! Go ahead and do it. But it’s really making me happy. Now if only I can find a way to create a bigger corner for me, I can already display all the books [...]

An old woman

When I grow old, I pray that I have enough resources I can tap into so that I won’t be asking for help from others. There is this old woman who kept on asking for money and other things from a family. Sure, they’re related but sometimes, the family just feels like she’s just asking [...]

Not really a negative person

How to you spell pathetic? It’s looking forward to Monday morning so you can find out what’s new in the Pet Society store. That’s how you spell P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C! If you’ve been reading this blog, you’d be thinking that I am very much a negative person. Sorry about the rants. This blog was built with the [...]

Hard at work again

I feel guilty. I’ve been coasting for a few weeks now, not really exerting that much effort. It’s bad of me, I know. I am actually making an effort now to correct those weeks. I will do every thing to go back to that state where every waking hour is spent hard at work. That [...]

Hot in the city!

You wouldn’t believe how hot it is in the Philippines right now. Unbelievably hot! It feels like you are living inside an oven. The electric fans are blowing hot wind. Even staying put or lying still, you will be drenched in sweat. It is that hot! Believe me, when you attempt to walk without an [...]

We need to fail.

I read from my favorite preacher Bro. Bo Sanchez that we need to fail. I do think so, too. We need to fail to be able to determine our own strengths. I failed several times in the past. In my career. I stumbled and fell and stood up again and again. And you know what? [...]

My family

Name three words you would use to describe your family. Large. Loud. Simple. We are a large family. Large pertaining to number and body size. 6 brothers and sisters, and my parents. 2 died, my brother and my mom. We are overweight people. I know, it’s bad. It’s in our genes. Loud. We are literally [...]

Jaded on friendship

My friends and I were saddened when we heard first-hand how bitter about life a former teacher is. He narrated how he used to go out with so many friends. The number slowly dwindled when one by one his friends got married, migrated to another country, worked abroad, etc. He was bitter about it. He [...]

A simple message to all…

Happy Valentine’s Day to all! Happy Sunday as well

Spinster

We have quite a few spinsters in the family. On both sides, paternal and maternal. I don’t see anything wrong with growing old alone and without a husband and kids. But I do acknowledge the fact that it can be lonely. A cat or any pet can keep them company but up to when? Pets [...]
