Birthday Recap 2012

My birthday fell on a Thursday, but that did not stop me to have a series of celebrations that started in the middle of the week. Ten years from now, I will be re-reading this post on how I celebrated my 22nd birthday and say "I live a fruitful life 30 years of my life.."

Here is a "series" of celebrations I made on the week of my birthday.

Aug. 22 - The traditional birthday "salubong" with my HS bff Kim at Central Sheridan.

I was opting for a "Smurfs" look here but somebody's finger blocked the view of the lens. But I'm posting this anyway. 

Aug. 23 - Being in the Marketing field requires a lot of sacrifices, which includes: going to the office with a bad hangover, 2 hours of sleep and your Brand Review presentations.

But it also has its perks. :)

Mud Pie from my officemates. :)

 Mango Bravo from the first supplier I hired as a "professional". If you can consider me as such. Hihi! :)

And of course, nothing beats a simple house dinner with my other HS bff, Fae. Too bad, Kim and Fae's schedule are conflicting, the exact reason for the separate celebration with them. :)

Aug. 24 - Just when I thought that my birthday celebration was over, I got surprised by the morning greeting I got from my then-officemate.

My officemates, once again, treat me out at lunch here at Mad Mark's.

 "THE" Man Sandwich is really the perfect meal for the birthday girl.

 Came dinner, we had to say goodbye to on of our teammate, Ms. Erika.

 I will surely miss her. :(

 I wasn't able to finish Ms. Erika's despedida party for a late dinner at Causeway, Banawe with Jeric Fortuna and Tata Bautista.

A supposedly house party became a party of three with Ryan and Jennika. <3 Well I guess you know what that heart means already. :)

Aug. 25 - Reunited with my 1st year and 2nd year college gfs at Danna's birthday celebration in Oasis, Timog.

Oh wait, meet my new friends, Bojo and Mads. :)

 I have always, always been the friend without the partner but I really don't mind about me going out with them without a date because there will always, always be new friends I'm willing to meet.

 Happy Birthday, Danna babes! :)

 Too bad, Nie and Jer missed the fun after they left. :(

And of course, we missed Rae Siao too! :((

Aug. 26 - An eat-all-you-can lunch buffet, gifted by my soon to be bunkmate, my soulmate, the twin sister I wish I had (TENDENCIES!!!) Sam the Great. I love her to bits. :))

Sambokojin, West Ave's birthday present to me. Yay! Thank you to the warm staff of Sambokojin. Your service is the best ever, so far! I will definitely come back! :)

The come-from-behind win of UST against NU is the best week-ender ever!  I am so so proud of Jeric Fortuna for that 3-pointer buzzer beater!

ADDENDUM

Can you guess, what I did, who I was with and where did I go on Wednesday night. :)

Random Thought 038

Brooke Davis wasn't lying when she said that "The bad guys lie to get into your bed. The good guys lie to get into your heart.."

Random Thought 037

This is one of the countless times that I wish I know better.

I'm not in the verge of giving up just yet. But I'm in the point where I start questioning my ability to get things done.

I don't even know if this is still what I want. If this is where I belong.

Sorry.

To my past that I didn't do good.

To the present, for disappointing myself.

To my future, for whatever stupid things I might do.

And as the rain falls down, my tears followed. 

Not from the eyes, but endlessly falling from my heart. 

Random Thought 036

Why do I feel alone, fat and ugly? Must be the rain.

Sympathy is the last thing I need now. I feel so pathetic writing this now.

And I officially joined the bandwagon of the /wrist type of girls.

What's wrong? Really?

SMASHED POTATO

I skipped work today for reasons that I cannot express here. But for one, the bad weather kept me in bed all day and the flooded areas along the metro contributed to my absence.

Due to boredom and my newly adjusted braces,

I made myself a mashed potato :)

Since my braces just got its adjustment,(thanks to Dra. Almond for the sky blue and baby pink rubber by the way) I knew that I will not be able to eat any solid food so I decided to make this. I know it doesn't look pleasing but I assure you that it tastes so gooood! :)

And my cousin could testify to this. :)

Shotgun

These people will agree with me for sure!

 Eto yung mga posts na di pinag-iisipan.


In case you're just interested of what's happening for the past 2 months. I've been busy with my work lately that's why I can't keep up with this blog.

I will try to get back on track!

Bye for now! :)

Let's put an end to this

This never ending cycle of breaking up and making up is not healthy anymore, you know? The endless fights. The petty quarrels. The negativity. Trust issues. Jealousy. Paranoia.

IT. GETS. TIRING.

I could not take the screaming and the yelling anymore. It was crazy and stupid but I had to do it. I need to get out of the car in the middle of the chaotic Highway 54. On a rainy Wednesday night. It was the only way out.

In that moment, I felt freedom but I was lost.

Walking in the middle of an unfamiliar place, crying is something people don't see everyday. I did not want people to draw their attention at me but I could not help if they find entertainment in my sorrow.

What's funny was that, I was laughing in between sobs, thinking "Is this even worth all the drama?" Not caring if people thought I was retarded or something.

Ayoko na. Ayoko na talaga.


Then you showed up. You wanted me to go back inside the car. I was to tired to ignore you, so I did what you say.

We tried. We cried. We talked. Ayoko na talaga. 


Pero hindi ko kaya. 




And eventually, after all the fights, the drama, the arguments, the misunderstandings and what nots, sumuko na tayo. 






Sumuko na tayo sa idea na maghihiwalay pa tayo.






Dahil hindi man lahat ng pagod nadadaan sa pahinga at pagtulog, naniniwala akong hindi din sagot ang pagsuko. :)
