where is this sun you speak of?

Crystal, Celest, me and Melanie at JBR Reading - The Filipino News newspaper, horoscope section. Although I do not believe in such but it's kind of entertaining somehow. It says something about Virgos: Virgo as a friend is extremely useful to have (how useful? I dunno!). They are excellent advisers and knows how to solve a problem (hah!) Virgos are there to remind you to care extra care for yourself because they are focused on health and wellness (hah). They are very dedicated to their family and very attentive to elderly and sick people. They are awesome parents (could be!). However, Virgos are not the type of people who will directly show their feelings. they would rather do it through discreet acts. (this one could be true for me!) See how entertaining this is? It's surprising how people can just put random thoughts about your star sign. Writing - recipe for Sipo Eggs and Crispy Tilapia Sticks. I'm cooking this week!

It's three weeks since I came back from vacation and feels like life has been too slow since. It's probably because I was having too much fun (and almost no sleep at all!) during my three-week vacation back home. It was heartbreaking to leave home again but I thought that I needed to be away so I can learn to be independent. There are still so many things yet to accomplish over here. So I'm back in Dubai surrounded by tall buildings and strangers. But I am glad to have a few people to spend time with. My roommates, a few friends, family friends, and family! I'm thankful that they're just around. I could not imagine life without them around in this city.  There's nothing else to write about my life lately although I know I have to write about my vacation back home! More to write soon. x

It has been two weeks since I came back from my three-week long vacation back in the Philippines. It truly was heartbreaking to step into the plane, sit down and see my city become smaller until it's gone. Anyway, I'll try to write about my vacation soon. (I know, right? I'm too busy for my blog now. It's sad.) Boslon Island, one of the Britania Islands, Surigao del Sur, Philippines Listening - to the State of the Nation Address by the new President Rodrigo Duterte. I was not able to watch this live since I was on vacation however the resort I've stayed in played this on my first day in Surigao del Sur. I kind of watched a bit of it though (around the topic about passports~). This should be interesting. Celebrating - life! As always. Thinking - mostly about my future travels and life plans. Hoping - things will work out fine even though some things are not planned very well. However isn't it better if you just let things go and accept what's go...

So, I stumbled upon this questionnaire from lifehack.org that claims will change your life. 1. Are you doing what you truly want to do? Maybe. The thing is I don't exactly know what I truly what to do right now however I try to like the things going on my way. So maybe I'm fine. 2. Do you have a dream to follow? Yes. Generally, my dream is to have my own garden when I am retired. Just like my mother. Life's good when you have your own garden - grow plants and them them flourish. :p 3. Are you proud of what you’re doing or what you’ve done? Yes, absolutely. It's surprising how life unfolds for the better in the long run.  4. How many promises have you made and how many of them have you fulfilled? I don't count promises. As far as I could remember, the time I learned by heart the cliche that promises are meant to be broken, I try to stop myself from making people expect things from me that myself could not even cope up. I know the feeling - I have felt th...

Somewhere in Old Dubai area I was once mistaken for a serious person. Well, not just once but I think most of the time. It's probably because I talk less and (most probably~) I have a  bitchy resting face. Plus include my casual mood swings that has nothing to do with anyone but myself alone. (Sorry not sorry!)  It's funny how people start to think that I am mad when I am not. It mostly occurred during college when my block-mates would just keep quiet and look at me and say sarcastically that everyone should shut up because I am already annoyed when in fact I was just staring blankly at something random and thinking about food. From then on I have been aware of how would people think about me but that did not last long. I never cared what other people think of me by the way I normally look when all my facial muscles are relaxed. It's just how I am - that's what makes me me! :p My close friends would know this better.

It's the weekend and I am kind of trying to kill boredom. So I made a mix and it is just about anything hence the title - None Of Them Make Much Sense - or maybe they do? I don't know. Enjoy. None Of Them Make Much Sense from superdhebz on 8tracks Radio .

You wake up in the wee hours of the morning on a weekend and thinking you deserve more sleep. Most days of your week starts at 6:30 am, dreading the get up to shower so you stay 15 minutes longer in bed, with closed eyes hoping the clocks were wrong. Until your time is over and the alarm seems to slap you in the face and you are ready for the day. It's a routine. So waking up hours before the usual time on a weekend seems to be wrong. Until your mind tries to wander around and you start to contemplate on things in general. Or, overthinking. Are you happy where you are? I guess so. However, when someone asks me that question, I think twice. And it's okay to think twice when you are asked life questions like this... I guess. How are you coping? Are you satisfied with your life right now? How are you? I can never be satisfied at 25. There are things to be experienced and done for the better and upcoming years. There is that thing that always makes you crave for more... it...
