My three sisters
One of the things I love about having 3 sisters is that you get to gossip with them a lot! When we are all okay with each other, and we’re not super tired from the day’s activities, we get to chat for hours. In fact, instead of sleeping, I had a really fun chat with [...]
Ah, yes!
Just what my aching body needs right now…
Water, sun.
Fluffy pillows.
Peace and quiet.
Peach and floral
Whenever I see something peach and floral, I remember my mom. She loved floral dresses and blouses. She loved anything light-colored but was mostly attracted to shades of peach. She felt that light colors attract more positive energy than dark-colored items.
Years later, my sisters and I still feel the same way towards anything light-colored. And [...]
Even for a day
I need some time alone. Away from the family. Away from home. Even for the weekend. Even for a day. I just need to empty my mind and my heart from too many worries related to them.
But ever the paranoid me, I feel like I might worry more when I leave them all behind. Yes, [...]
Matampuhin
Minsan masyado akong matampuhin. May marinig lang akong medyo di ko nagustuhan, parang sasama na agad ang loob ko. Madalas nga inaagapan ko. Kasi ayoko ng negative emotions. Stay positive nga di ba?
Needing a friend right now
How come when you need someone to talk to, there’s no one available to listen. Like right now. I really need someone to talk to. I just get depressed so easily when it comes to worries about my family. I need someone who can listen to me get this off my chest. But there’s no [...]
Ang hirap…
Hirap na hirap talaga akong magsulat these days. Naka-vacation mode ang katawan at isip ko. Parang ang gusto ko lang gawin lagi ay maglakwatsa o mag-relax. Every December, ever since I started working at home, lagi kasi akong naka-vacay mode eh. Kaya eto, nasanay na. Pero I need to earn more for the new year [...]
Full of ideas
My mind is full of ideas that most of it get stuck and don’t come into fruition. Or tamad lang ako talaga I always need to remind myself to stop slacking off and start really stepping up. I have goals to reach and I need to be determined and focused if I want [...]
Time management, lifestyle changes
I seriously need to manage my time better. I need to stop being on Facebook and start to work on scheduling my updates more. Sigh. I am hooked and it’s really strange for someone like me to be hooked on a social networking site. I am not much of a social creature anymore. I think [...]
One time too many
When I was around 6 or 7, my mom had me attend piano lessons at my cousins’ house. We had this really strict teacher who would bring with her a wood ruler to tap our hands with should we commit mistakes. The taps brought with it hurt and shame. Instead of making me want to [...]
Hug my brother
Sometimes, I feel this overwhelming need to hug my brother tightly. He grew up beside me. I took care of him when my mom was not well enough to do so. He grew up in my arms, humming him to sleep, feeding him baby foods, bathing him and making sure that everything’s fine with him. [...]
Open window
When God closes a door, He opens a window.
It proved to be true for me.
Thank you, God!
