MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!

yes, this is me and my fiance when we were kids. i think i was 2 years old here and he, 3. we just want to spread the LOVE kiddy style. coz u know how kids are during christmas.. they're all so happy and excited and we just want it to be that way even if were adults now. 

but its really different. no matter how hard you try to get in touch with that kid in you, there will always be things you'd miss, things that would still make you worry and sad.

but then again, we tried. as you know, we're in a ldr with a 12 hour difference. he was able to spend the christmas night with me through skype and im waiting for him right now to wake up and watch him open his presents.

there will always be a way to spend time with someone you love. there will always be a way to be all happy and thankful even if you feel so alone.

to you reading this, i hope you had a wonderful Christmas!

spreading the MISTLETOE BIEBER LURVE!

okay.. did he just made it on my blog? what just happened? oh well.. MISTLETOE did. im no JB fan. i don't hate him but i don't like him either. no offense to the fans coz he is really talented. im just not a fan. PERIOD. but i actually have one of his songs on my phone (NEXT TO YOU). anyway, i first heard this song from my bestie Ken.

check out his mash up cover of Mistletoe, How To Love, The One That Got Away and Someone Like You:

i dig Mistletoe so i went to youtube and looked for it. Lo and behold, JB was like staring right at my face. oh well..  DEFEATED! anyway, i wanted to do another song while im alone in the apt and no ones hearing and seeing my stupid face so i decided, why not some christmas song? you might be thinking, if you're not a JB fan, why this? well, i said im DEFEATED! ok. i like the song.. its easy to jam with, its fun and there's an available instrumental music on youtube and yesssss....... i like it. happy now? OK.

so there's my version. it's so obvious that i just learned the song this afternoon. messing it all up. im sorry BIEBER fans please don't go hating on me.. i just want to sing his song. that's not a crime, right? and besides, its Christmas! lez all be happy and spread the Bieber LURVE! :)

The Kwarto Sessions - Jared Uy

so yesterday, saw a friend's tweet:

My 'Kwarto Sessions', a 20 track indie release LP will be sent out to all my close friends who believed in my music since day 1. :) email.:)

and i was like, ME ME ME! Jared and i are not close but we got to know each other through twitter and blogging (why'd u kill it???) and we were classmates in a couple of subjects in college. so i got all FC (feeling close) to him when i saw that tweet. eversince i've heard him sing (im not sure where.. could be youtube or some website, i think-- not facebook), i've believed in his talent right then and there. and whenever he sings in school for a program, i make sure i was there. yes! some fan, eh? im like that when i see someone who GOT IT. i don't stop. i bug them. in Jared's case, i invited him to perform during a forum we had in school that my class organized, i asked him to put music on 2 of the nursery songs i need to make for a project and invited him to sing on my brother's wedding (but that didn't happen coz he had to go somewhere).

anyway, when i got this tweet:

@chinobrooke ikaw nga una pumasok sa isip ko na bibigyan ko. :))

imagine me smiling so BIG! we're not close but for some reason, he remembered how i believed in his music since day 1. so just a few hours ago, i got an email from him with a link of his self-released LP. yay! im listening to it now and i just can't help but feel proud. i really wish that this guy would go far. with his talent in music and writing, it's such a shame if it will just go unnoticed.

---------

PS:

if you're reading this Jared, THANK YOU for including me on ur list. i do enjoy music a lot especially when it comes to someone who is struggling and is not yet touched by some music company who ends up being fake and lost. i hope you'll continue doing music and not kill it (like what u did to ur blog). coz, i know im not the only one smiling upon hearing your music.

The One You Say Goodnight Too (cover)

so, here's my attempt to sing a Kina Grannis song called The One You Say Goodnight To. i don't have THE voice but hey! its a free country, right? and besides, i made this for my fiance. it's his birthday 2 days from now (3 if you're on his timezone), and im doin some lil gifts for him since uh December 16, i think? this is worth 2 days so this makes it 5th and 6th. coz i sang and uploaded it on youtube. i don't normally do this. but I LOVE the guy. what can i say? i just want to surprise him from this side of the world. 

so don't be harsh on me. this cover is not my attempt to take over youtube and be a singing sensation. it's just me, a normal girl, who loves music and wants to put a smile on her fiance's face. 

a smile that turned into tears

so my fiance posted this on my wall... Christmas songs used to make me happy.. but its bringing tears to my eyes more than it makes me smile these days... it feels so different already. don't get me wrong though, i love Christmas and its such a nice time to reflect and share our blessings.. i just wish my parents are still here to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ with us. IM HAPPY.. just being nostalgic? idk. songs like this brings back lotsa memories that i surely miss..

it's more than just a picture

So my pinning ceremony was done. Im happy that finally im closer to that diploma I’ve been trying to get for 7 years. Im happy but a lot is missing. Last semester, for the October graduates, I was tasked to be one of the emcees of the pinning ceremony. Watching the practicumers go up the stage with their parents made me smile and so happy because I know a couple of months from that, I will be the one up there. Now my time has come and all I want to do is cry.

I held back my tears during the whole mass and ceremony. I don’t want anyone to see me cry. I don’t want to look like a stupid emotional fool infront of them. But im in my room and now im free. I am happy but I can’t help and be sad. The excitement I had a few months ago just vanished. I was for my  Papa more than for myself. Finally, he can see me wear my practicum uniform, go up the stage and pin my nameplate. But this morning, all I had was his hanky. The moment Papa passed away, my pinning ceremony and graduation was some of the things that came into my mind. Neither my Mama nor Papa would be there. But I still have my siblings and that made me smile. Then my sister can’t make it. So it’s just my brother and sister-in-law. And im thankful they were there. It’s just not easy to watch the rest of the 103 practicumers go up on stage with their parents and smile to whoever’s taking their picture. It’s hard to watch them hug their parents and see their parents smile back at them. I seriously just want to run to the bathroom and bawl and ask God, WHY?

I graduated in preschool with just Mama and ate with me. From elementary, just Mama. From high school, just Ate. And now, just Kuya. WHY? Papa was never in the picture. And all I wanted was for him to be here with me at this moment but I guess I’m too late.

For some it would be just an ordinary day but for me it’s something big. I have failed twice but believe me or not, I WAS TRYING. But someone told me before that no matter how hard you try, if it’s not meant for you, you will never get it. And that God has a reason for everything. I accepted my failure though at times it hurts me because no matter what achievement I get, it haunts me.

I know they’re both watching from above but it would’ve been great if they were there at the Center. It would’ve been great to see them stood up when the priest asked all the parents to stand up. It would’ve been great to walk between them and go up the stage, have my nameplate pinned by either one of them and smile to whoever’s taking our picture. It would’ve been great to stand beside them, introduce my friends and tell my teachers, they’re my parents! I guess, I’ll just need to pray hard and ask God to have a repeat performance in dcity but this time, with mama and papa.

This is just one of a million moments I wished im sharing with them. But I have to settle to them just watching from heaven.

It's just a picture... But for me, it's more than JUST the click of the camera and posting of helluva number of pictures on facebook.

The "magical" Proposal

this is way overdue but i already mentioned from my earlier post that i am now engaged! yepyep! at 24. though i don't really look like im 24. but that's a different story.. anyway, 4 years ago, i met a guy and i know something about him is special and im gonna wait for the time that i can find that out. 2 years later, we became a couple and 2 years later, engaged to be married.

it's hard especially when you're in a long distance relationship. even harder when you're beating not just the miles but the time. yes.. we have a 12 hour difference. exactly on the other side of the world. but we're doing a pretty good job, i might say. the support of both our families and friends has and continually been overwhelming! we are indeed blessed!

days before this happened, i kept on stumbling upon flash mob wedding proposals (thanks to his friend, Phil --who is an awesome writer btw) and we would watch it together. lil did i know, im gonna have my own surprise. it may not be a crazy flash mob with a million views on youtube but it was something no one has ever done. at least from what i know.

fiance is a street magician from South Florida. known as Antino Art he stands out from the rest of the magicians you know because he uses his OWN poetry and incorporate it with his tricks. every trick you'll see from him has a story. and you'll see that with how he proposed. you won't see the whole thing in video since one of the guests only captured the time when my brother started reading the "pamanhikan letter" ( a letter from fiance's parents asking their blessing to allow their son to propose; a filipino tradition).

anyway, it was during my nephew's christening that it happened. my brother asked him and some of his magician friends here in Cebu (shoutout to Thomas Pua) to perform for the guests. fiance took over the last part of the event. he asked who wants some presents and distributed some stuff around along with 9 chapter/letters. i got the 9th chapter. he then asked who is holding the 1st chapter and told them to read it. after that, he would perform a magic trick that is in line with what he wrote in the chapter. everything was connected. everything speaks of how we got together. and then it came to me... at the back of my mind, i knew there was something and i feel like crying from excitement and nervousness but i don't want to assume. my sister-in-laws tita was actually whispering "i think he's going to propose" and that's when i started having a hard time breathing because i wasn't the only person thinking about it.

when i finished my chapter, someone gave me a piece of kisses chocolate. you how they have a white strip on top, well that one was replaced with a yellow strip that says "see the next chapter" .. that's when my brother started reading the letter (watch the video).

you'll see my brother cry here. and that made me cry. i think the guests were startled because most of them are his and his wife's officemates and bosses. no one knew that fiance was going to do that except for his parents.

here are some pictures i already posted in my tumblr acct. to know what the number is about, click HERE.

and yes, there was no ring. just cards with yes and no written at the back. if you noticed in the video, i double looked to see if it really what i think it was. i ran to my brother and hugged him tight because i want him to know that I WANT THIS GUY TO BE MY HUSBAND and im dying for him to say OK. to those who didn't know, we just lost our father a month before the proposal and my brother is like my father. even before our dad passed away. so what he would say means a lot to me. and im sure damn glad he nodded and told me to go. and as a pure Filipina that i am, i pointed with my "nguso" ( like how you pout your lips). i directed it to YES.

YES even without a ring. yes, a ring is a symbol and is a must-have when you propose but he defied it and chose his way and i admire him for that. it just made me sure that he is the guy i want to spend my life with. he knows sincerity matters most and his effort of doing that in front of a lot of strangers won my heart over again.<3

Antino's thing at d' Downtown Art Festival

the fiance doing his thing at the Downtown Art Festival at Gainesville, Florida last November 12..

with one of his fellow magician who im excited to meet, Datta

i don't post much of work related stuff of my fiance here but i think i should start doing that and let more people know about his passion/work because its been helping us A LOT! so, if you're from Florida (or anywhere around US & abroad actually-- you just kinda need to shoulder the expenses cept if he's there on your country and you got lucky), and need some cool entertainment that would blow your mind, my fiance, Antino Art and his troupe, House of Flying Cards will be so grateful to perform at your event (lol! this is me trying hard to promote).

check out Antino Art's website and get in touch with him HERE.

Just For A Moment

yay for the new song i stumbled upon!

Jason Chen – Just For A Moment (First/New Single Music Video)

1st verse reminds me a lot of me and boyfie.

Another state, another city got me tired out
Flashing lights of cameras flickerin as people shout
It’s not enough to hear my baby’s voice on the phone
Cause the only fan I care about is back home alone
They tellin me that I got plenty o’ time for a relationship
Told me to wait on it (no no)
Cause ever since the day you came in my life
You were my favorite, dont know what to make of it (whoa whoa)
Lookin through photos of us in my hotel room
After a couple shows you know I’ll be back soon
So many sleepless nights,
tossing, turning alone aint right
Girl you know im impatiently yearnin that

Dear Anonymous

Dear Anonymous,

if you happen to stumble on my blog again, i hope you'll get to read this. THANK YOU SO MUCH! that simple comment made me smile. i hope next time, you won't go anonymous anymore.

lotsa duck love,
A <3

“No offense but it’s easier to change the model than the prototype.”

so you know how much i LOVE being pinoy... ok. that could be a lil hypocrital since i listen to a bunch of foreign music and adore foreign films and read books written by yes, non-Filipino people. STILL, i love being Pinoy. the food, the culture, the traditions, i know will forever stick with me. i may not post blogs in Filipino much but that's because most of my readers well, 2nd most are English speakers. so i have a job to uphold. ;)

anyway, lets cut the chase. i just wanna to share this 2 videos i saw of Georgina Wilson. yes, she's half pinoy, half Brit model reppin Philippines. she recently appeared on America's Next Top Model Cycle 17 (All Stars) as the wardrobe stylist (BENCH). hoohah!!! i just want to share because pure blooded, half or a quarter PINOY is STILL PINOY.

the 2 vids are practically the same but this is my blog so lemme post whatever...

1. clearer vid

2. just some other version from youtube

so there... aside from Georgina Wilson, fashion designer Michael Cinco is back on ANTM's 9th ep! was looking for a video but apparently, everything was removed on youtube OR i wasn't looking right.

life in 2 months time

it's been over 2 months since my last post. and it was about me rambling bout how i miss my bf and how he is in a cruise to Russia. just 2 months but a lot has happened. its not just some ordinary happening. its something i consider life changing.

August 18, my dad passed away. up until now, i haven't really cried. up until now, i don't really feel like he's gone. though there are nights when i look for his text messages and sundays where i long for his calls. i still feel like he's just around. i miss him. SO MUCH!

August 19, my late mom's birthday. i guess papa went on so she can greet mama a happy birthday up there.

August 28, my sister in law gave birth to a very healthy baby boy... Seth N.R.P. my 4th nephew... he's my dear tiny wings/angry bird.

*** went back home for a week for my dad's burial. saw some of my relatives again and spent time with my high school friends. coz of them it wasn't all tears. they have brought laughter and life when i thought all i can ever do was cry and cry and miss my dad.

when i came back to Cebu, bf was here. he made my days easier. and made me fall in love with life even more and be thankful to God no matter what.

September... crazy month! was so busy with school because finals was fast approaching. endless projects and requirements to be passed. i can't fail and mess it all up. im about to graduate!

* spent time with kids from Balay Samaritano and tutored a kid named Keven. such a great experience!
* did my SPED research with 3 other people and we did good. from what i know, we have the best output. was able to answer the questions though i may have stumbled a couple times, i was able to pull a 91/100 score for the oral exams.
* organized a Send Off party for the SPED october graduates at Outpost Restbar. turned out pretty good amidst the heavy rain and a lil flood.

October 8, my nephew was welcomed to the Christian world... and later my bf of 2 years became my fiance. yes. he proposed in front of all the people. my family, relatives and my brother and sister in laws officemates.

so in a year, im gonna be Mrs. and im really excited about it. been planning who will we hire and so far, we're doing good.

1st sem just ended and all my accredited subjects are in! that means 2 more subjects and im done with my degree. it feels so good to be able to finish something where my heart belongs to.

there's more but this are just the things for now. i miss it here like crazy mucho. and if you're wondering what up with me, you can follow me on tumblr. its nothing much on updates bout me but you can see some random posts that you may find interesting.

till my next post!

12 more days!

as you walk the streets of Stockholm, Sweden, im here sitting my sick butt in my living room’s apartment counting the days when i can wrap my arms around you again…

things you can't ask

so i've been in a long distance relationship for 2 years now. i've known my boyf 2 years before we even got together and ever since we became a couple he visits every 3-6 months. he lives in Florida and I, here in the Philippines. you might know that by now if you've been reading my blog though.

anyway, he's in Russia now doing a cruise with his family and communication is scarce. we just email each other not knowing when the other one is gona be online. we can't set a time because well i have school and he doesn't know his schedule especially when the ship docks. besides the wifi is so expensive that we decided to just leave each other emails each day. if you ask how about giving each other a call? his roaming isn't working so there. nevertheless, with the emails we send each other, it makes us feel closer..

ok. now the whole point of this blog is to inform EVERYONE of things YOU CAN'T ASK to someone who is in a long distance relationship. im very open with what me and my boyfriend have. others call it a fairy tale. others would say the spark wouldn't last, others are inspired..

...and others just love throwing you questions that are sometimes totally insensitive already. couples who are in LDR is having a hard time already. everyday they wake, they try to motivate themselves to be happy and extend their patience in waiting for the day when they can hold their partners again. so if you want to ask them questions about their love life, please PLEASE be careful.

some questions were thrown to me by my friends lately. and most of them i chose not to answer. because i don't want to think about it. i know my friends were innocent in asking those questions and im glad that they understood when i told them that it's a lil rude and even said sorry..

so what are those questions?

1. what will you do if you guys would break up?
2. what will you do if something bad happens to him?
3. are you sure he's being faithful to you?
4. what if your just a chapter in his life?
5. are you sure he's not flirting with another girl on that cruise?
6. how would you feel if he decides to cancel his trip?
7. can you handle being away from him more than 6 months?
8. are you sure he's not dating someone else in his place?
9. he's surrounded with pretty, beach, (blonde) girls, how can he control himself? ---> this is far most the stupidest question i've heard!
10. what if you guys are just NOT meant to be?

there. i don't know if you feel me but im sure other girls who are in a LDR would be pissed off or would feel indifferent. so again, when you wana know things, refrain yourself from askin those questions. even people who are not in a LDR would find it rude if you ask them this, i think..

August 1

24 more days to go til i can wrap my arms around the guy i LOVE

FOREVER

this past 2 months is whirlwind kind of crazy with me and Arthur. We've been fighting a lot and sometimes we don't know why. i think its because we miss each other so much. my computer broke down, i can't text often coz of the rates and the phone which is supposed to help us battle the missing waves has a totally choppy line. so the little time we get to spend with each other sometimes fall into fights. i know what you're thinking. how can it be like that when we're supposed to savor the limited times we have. idk either. maybe there are just a lot of things that we haven't said and we're both stressed and frustrated with out situation that we finally blew up.

a couple of days ago we had another fight. that was the scariest of all fights. because i really thought he wanted to end it. im glad i cleared it coz i have the tendency to just breakdown right away and believe what i think is what he's trying to say. but that night, he made it all clear that he won't leave me. that it'll never happen. he'll stay even if we gonna go through hell just to fight what we have.

last july 9, we celebrated our 22nd month of being together. everyday we're both amazed at our journey. when we committed ourselves into each other, we never really thought of the distance and of how long we won't see each other. all we knew that time was that, we're in love and that we don't want to let it slip from our grip. we fell into each others arms without any hesitation. and i guess its just now that everything is sinking in.

it hurts. its frustrating. very stressful. it makes us both crazy. we get mad, we fight. we cry and get all sad. we get tired and sometimes even question if we're really made for each other...

but you know what? we're still here. standing and holding each other. we're still here, whispering iloveyou's and forever. because no matter how hellish of a moment we get in a week or a month, we stand in what we believe in. LOVE. we have the same beliefs and wants and needs. we both want to be together and in the future build a family. we want our love to last. we know what we have has an extra special toppings on top. we know God brought us together to show people that no time and distance can separate two people who are madly and crazy in love...

so to you my dear reader, if you love someone, and you know in your mind and heart that person is the one, don't ever let anyone tell you otherwise. jump in and trust your gut feeling. PRAY. ask God for guidance and don't ever lose the faith. LOVE is all around us. but if you're too cautious, you might lose in a blink of an eye...

FALL IN LOVE!






i did. i am. and i will.
to the same person for the rest of my life...

at 24 years...

a very late post.
this was during my birthday last week. it was a quiet, very emotional one for me. i miss my family, my sister who always have something to make my day extra special and my boyfriend who always finds a way to make me smile whenever i feel like crying.

im grateful to have reached 24 years in this world. and im looking forward for more years to come. during my birthday i had a lot of time to think of what's going on in my life, what i want to do and how i badly want some things.

i was never a person who loves material stuff. yes, i long for having a decent computer (not for myself but for the reason that i badly need it for school stuff), i love dresses (and it feels good to see my dad happy that i'm finally being a girl), and other things girls my age want. i want them but i don't go on a tantrum just to have them (hi Arthur!). ok, well not all the time, i throw a mini tantrum to my boyfriend but just when i know its ok. anyway, my point is that day just proved how much i wanted to be just with the people i hold close to my heart. how i don't care if i have new stuff, how all i want was a hug from my family. how i badly wanted one.

it made me think of where i'll be next year. of how i'll spend my next birthday.. it made me realize of the more important things. even though my 24th was full of tears and longing, i woke up and ended it with a smile. waking up and seeing the early morning skies transition of colors is a blessing. a blessing that i'm alive and breathing again. a blessing that im able to see such a beautiful thing. a blessing to be happy in such a simple thing. and i ended my day with an amount full of thank you's. for the people who greeted me, for my family and for having a boyfriend who will always do whatever he can to make me happy and make me realize that LIFE IS A WONDERFUL THING. but what i loved the most was the fact that i was reminded to stay grounded.

HELLO 24 year old ME!

Project Runway 8

im more of an America's Next Top Model girl then Project Runway. i don't anything about designs and sketches. or garments and cloths. i just enjoy more how models portray a certain emotion and how its being captured in photos. i love how photgraphers translate what they see on film and convey it in their photos. and i LOVE LOVE TYRA BANKS! she's the ultimate!

but, this is not about ANTM. its about how i discovered and learned to love PR. im watching season 8 on dvd and i have to say i got hooked. im excited to see their designs and amazed at how fast they can come up with such amazing stuff!

i don't have any like stick to one favorite atm but i adore Casanova's design in their collection challenge of military and lace look. here's a pic:



like im sooo gonna wear something like this.. its sexy and stylish but has an edgy side. i like how its not too girly coz of the lace. im like crazy for this outfit.

i also like Peach Carr but the last ep i watched she was ousted. i like Ivy Higa, and Valerie, too. here's a mini collage though of Michael Drummond, April Johnston and Casanova.




*** individual pictures are not mine. TOP: fr google images BOTTOM: fr their facebook accts ...though i did the collage and some edits on bottom pics of Michael D. and Casanova

tumbling freak!

so yea... i've been gone for a long time and im sorry.. got so busy with school and was just overwhelmed by the 3 month stay of boyfie here. i know i should be like inspired to write. trust me, i am. too inspired that my fingers can't keep up. anyway, im not totally awol. i was actually tumbling in tumblr! yep! i discovered the wonderrs of reblogging pics. not very original but i kinda found my home when it comes to dealing with ldr. that's where i found people like me who are in a ldr. so i was stuck there for over a month. plus the fact that my computer broke down on me.

well, im back and i hope you'll still continue reading my posts! if again you'll notice how i don't have any updates, you can check and follow me in twitter and tumblr.

my tumblr though is more about me and my boyfriend so you might get a lil over in the love area. so yea, i'll try to post more here since i've invested a lot of things on this one. im not gonna let this blog of mine die..

so im inviting you all over again for my idk-how-many-times-comeback in blogspot!

HAPPY READING!

Whats up Audience!

It's been a long intermission, but we're back. I recently just completed a three month performance tour of the Philippines, and am excited to get back on the performance grind with the rest of the House in and around South Florida. Here's where you can see us in the coming weeks:

---

On Tuesday April 12, we'll be kicking off our return to the South Florida entertainment scene with a special close-up magic segment on the Fernando Show. Tune in April 12 at 7 p.m. on Channel 15 America Teve!

We'll be back on our homecourt venue the Hollywood Artspark on Sunday April 17 from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. If you still haven't been, come out and watch our signature multi-magician street performances in the venue we've been killing it at since we formed.

Also, I will be launching my own website later this spring called Antino Art: Sorcerer of Say. It'll be an online showcase of my work in magical poetry, so stay tuned for updates!

And if you're bored, follow us on Twitter @hofcmagicians, read our blog THE HOUSE OF FLYING CARDS/, watch us on youtube THE HOFC, or book us for your next event!

That's all for this week. Enjoy the show!


Peacefully,

airport sickness

loud noise as engines growl
stop please i cant look at u now
tears well up my face
i don't want to go through this another phase
but im amazed!
on how we are
we've come this far
so lets just go and do this
for i don't know what i'm gonna do if i'll lose u tomorrow
checked in ur bags
everything's ready
you went back out for me
sat in a corner & watch the clocks
tick tock
here comes the tears that would be hard to stop
last call
give your kisses and goodbyes
hugs tight and make sure it'll last till morning light
fall in line,
show ur ticket,
then look back
im standing here waiting for another glance,
another touch,
another kiss,
come back home to me soon please
im sick of saying goodbyes
packing bags and standing in lines
FLY
i just wanna go with you
and not be here all alone anymore
travel the air with you
and experience everyday
without worries of being away
from each others arms
i miss you baby
i love you..
take away this sickness,
this blues
i wanna feel better and just
BE
WITH
YOU..

3 days to go

coz the guy i love is leaving soon.
and im not yet ready.
3 months they say was enough.
but when you're this in love, nothing is enough.
you just want to spend each waking moment with him.
im lucky. blessed. and for that i'm grateful!

like what my teacher said..
i should not count the days left.
but i should count the days when i'll see him again.
thing is i don't know when exactly.
FALL, i hope.





i miss him already.
i miss him sooo bad!
its crazy!

I LOVE YOU, Baby!

not ready

im not ready. i don't think i'll ever be ready. he's leavin in 4 days and im not sure when will i see him again. i started my year with him. everyday of the past 3 months, i was always with him. im so used to waking up knowing i'll see him and im used to seeing him before i go to sleep. we eat together --breakfast, lunch dinner and all those in betweens. scout a new place to eat and just devour their food. go and just do everything together.. no matter how tired i am in school, the thought of seeing him after makes me all ok.

i've been here before and i always commit the same mistake. it is to forget about how i cope up with him being away. as soon as im back in his arms, i just forget about how i missed him so much while he was gone. or how freakin hard it was. now i have to relearn it again. try to remember the things i've been doing and how im doing it. *sigh*

i seriously don't want to go back to chatting with him online, and texting and calls.. i don't want it. i just want to stay beside him. i want to be near him.

i try not to cry whenever he is around. i don't want him to see me sad. because i know it's hard for him, too. i just want him to be happy. and im gonna do that. im gonna make his last 4 days here an amazing one. how? im not quite sure bout that yet.


PS: Squeep, come back as soon as u can, please....

The GUHREAT American Circus + JARED

so, this morning my sister-in-law won't stop buggin me about the whole The Great American Circus show here in Cebu. she so wanna watch and i do too except that i'm tryin to save up for the Bruno Mars concert on April. yea, its still 3 months from now but i just want to be really ready for the price. :)

but you know how The Secret works? think about it, want it, have faith.. you'll attract the forces and whatever it is that you like will come to you. i guess i did that unknowingly. hella blessed coz while having dinner i read a tweet of a friend of mine Jared, that he's giving away at least 6 tickets for the show. so i tweeted back right away and asked for it. he said yes right away for me and my boyfriend. but i wanted to get 2 more for my brother and his wife who wants to see the show. but then he wanted me to answer a question first. i didn't get it right but he still gave me additional 2 just coz ..well here's his tweet: "im giving the tickets to you because ulirang gf ka din.ü and minsan lang andito c bf.ü btw, its july 11 2009. Sent u a dm."

im like so happy!!! its not jus because im gona see the show but because al spend it with the people i love-- my family & boyfriend (well, my bf is part of my fam too so yea.. family!) ..the first time i saw a circus was with my siblings and mom when i was a kid. this would be the 2nd time & im glad i get to watch it with my brother..

so, for you who wants to catch The Great American Circus check the photo for details:



again, thanks mucho Jared U. for being so generous! i owe you big time!
