A Fabulous 2012 Ya'll!
The saying, “Time flies fast” is an understatement! It feels surreal that we only have two more hours and it will be 2012 already! In this part of the world, that is. XD
2011 for me was emotionally eventful. Honestly, I feel like so far, 2011 has been the most eventful phase in my 22 years of existence.
2011 was definitely a year of losing and gaining; falling and standing;...

So this afternoon, I took the bus home.
A Filipina lady, who looked like she could be on her late 60’s sat beside me.
I was brooding about what I will order from Subway while staring out the window when I heard the lady’s phone ring. She picked it up and began talking about work then suddenly she said…
“… nasabi ko na sayo yung boyfriend kong taga Santa Monica diba? Hinatid niya ko kanina...

Last night's heart break...
… turned into this morning’s strength; and also resulted to my official list of next year’s resolution.
To start the honest explanation of how this irony came about; I just have to let it out there that I’m not a toughie, and yes I’m only trying to act like one— but I’d like to believe that it’s better to fake it until I wing it than dwell on it and...
You.
You came into that part of my life when and where I thought I needed someone the most; someone to take all the pain away; to save me from them and to save me from myself.
Looking back, you turned everything around for me without you knowing it. I saw you as my great escape, the light at the end of the day, the only enchanting difference to my then sleep-deprived nights. Being with you felt so...
I have no excuse for this.
Just one of those days… when you’re with your laptop. It happens. :)) Seriously though, I think my face is getting chubbier and chubbier… Hmm. I admit that my eating habits have gone from healthy to… heavy. Haha! Holidays pa naman!
Two Parts of Me.
The overworrier part of my brain: Is there a work day when and where I won’t mess up? This was absolutely a horrid shift. What will happen tomorrow? Will I mess up again? I’m so… lagot. Gosh… my heart’s pounding, I can’t stop thinking about the mess I made this afternoon. Oh God. Oh no.
The optimistic part of my brain: Hun, overworrying won’t get you...

Few Happy Pills and a Lip Product Review.
For the past weeks, I feel like I’m a candle burning out my wick to its last… I’ve been struggling to keep my flame alive against the strong winds… and choose to only accept the lessons and the positive things.
Inspired by blog entries similar to this (a recap of the things that made you happy in that week) I decided to do an entry about the five things that I’m...
Last Night
I can’t believe that we only have a week left before Christmas! I didn’t realize it until a couple of hours ago, while I was writing down my schedule for next week’s work. I’ve been too preoccupied with work that it was so much of a surprise for me realizing Christmas is coming near.
I also really believe that being away from Manila adds to the “it doesn’t feel...
This shall be deleted tonight.
I’ve been working since Friday, no offs, closing shit and the rudest customers. Yesterday, one old witch bought in 173y4703wu number of items to try on in neutral colors and ordered me to get the “fun” colors too and slammed the door on my face. BITCH I have the freakin key to the fitting rooms, if I was as evil as you I would’ve locked you in until the store closes. AND...
Some Thoughts
This lovely Friday morning, Papa drove me to work so I wouldn’t have to ride the bus… But this means that I’ll be way too early for my shift, and an obligatory Starbucks breakfast shall commence. Now here I am, after an hour and one breakfast wrap, still leeching off Starbucks’ wifi with Empress; my iTouch. Times like these make me think of so many things— the battle...

K-Palette 1 Day Tattoo Eyeliner
K-Palette One Day Tattoo Liquid Eyeliner - I went to the Japanese store this morning, and bought this. I was supposed to buy the Dolly Wink pencil liner since I thought it was $9.00 BUT to my heartbreaking dismay, it’s $14.99! I thought that it was pricey for such a thin tiny thing (it wasn’t even liquid). Then again, Japanese cosmetics are always pricey.
This one costs $16.99...
♥ Pink Baby Vanity!
We’re moving apartments tomorrow! It all happened too fast ~ we were planning to move by next year; but last week, one of Mama’s friend said that there’s an available place at their neighborhood. So last weekend, we went to check the apartment. Honestly, it’s not as nice as this place we’re staying in; but the environment here isn’t very healthy anymore...
I can't even think of a title.
I was contemplating whether or not I should even let these heavy feelings out… but my chest really feels tight right now… pero pag minamaliit na pamilya ko, nawawalan na ko ng respeto.
I just have to let it out— but you know what? I even believe that I’m still being respectful.
If I wasn’t trying to be respectful, nasabihan na kita ng putang ina mo.
In your face.
