first tag of the week! tagged # 11

from missyosigirl:

Rules:

Each blogger starts with ten random facts/habits about themselves.

Bloggers that are tagged need to write on their own blog about their ten things and post these rules.

At the end of your blog, you need to choose ten people to get tagged and list their names.

Don't forget to leave them a comment telling them they're tagged, and to read your blog.

10 more facts about me:

1. if i really like the song i can memorize it by ear after hearing it 4 times.
2. same with missyosigirl, we both love purple but we can't stomach eating ube in any form, well except that ube from baguio. yun lang!
3. i'd rather clean the bathroom than wash dishes
4. when i'm online i don't get bored, i always find new things on the net. i heart the internet
5. i don't know how to ride the bike. and i can't be taught.
6. i loved playing in the rain. and i miss those times.
7. the longest time i was able to sleep was more than 12 hours.
8. when i get drunk i talk in straight english
9. i had a thing for writing short love stories when i was in highschool. and i can only write good poetry that time when i was really angry.
10. i'd really want to wear nice heels and last the day without aching calves and feet. oh the vanity!! haha

tagging anyone who wants to answer more facts about themselves. send me a comment if you were able to answer it ok? =)

LP # 4: Hugis ay Pahaba

pahaba ang hugis ng leeg ng isang gitara pati na rin ang mga kwerdas nito. hindi buo ang isang gitara nang wala ang mga kwerdas nito. hamak na gitara lamang ito sa aming tahanan ngunit ang laki ng silbi sa aming pamilya. diyan ako unang natuto ng isang awit na nakita ko lamang sa isang songhits, dyan nabuo ang ang banda ng kapatid ko, sa tulong ng gitarang ito, mas naging malapit kami ng pamilya ko dahil lamang sa iisang hilig. ang musika.

maligayang LP sa dumalaw! =)

pahabol: kaninang umaga ko lang ito ginawa pagkatapos kong ihatid sa paaralan ang aking panganay. nawala sa isip ko na wala pa pala akong lahok para sa linggong ito. buti na lang at habang tulog pa ang mga kapatid eh, nakuha ko ang gitara nila kung hindi hindi ko ito makukunan ng ganito.

all I want right now, at this moment is to escape. Be free from all the negativity, the worry, the sadness, the ill thoughts.

I just want peace

I’m not one who can deal with stress like normal people would. I would detach myself from everything until everything around me gets affected. Which I am not even aware of. Unintentionally of course. For being so detached that I tend to not focus on anything. Just be blank. And wish that things weren’t real. I tend to be zombie like until I get numb. And the things and situations around me become routine that I just go through them day in and day out.

As much as I would love to talk about it and shout it out to those who would listen without being judgmental. I simply can’t because, they will get judgmental. They will think bad thoughts. They will speak behind our backs. They will ruin us.

As much as I would want to sweep things under the rug and forget about it. I can’t. it won’t let me.

I suck at this. I’ve been keeping to myself a lot of issues but in the end it’s still me who loses. It’s still me who gets hurt. It’s still me crying alone when everybody’s sleeping. It’s still me who has to deal with it. It’s still me.

How can I stay positive when these things have been plaguing me the first time I heard it. I was quite grateful that I was able to know about it rather than be left all alone in the dark and oblivious.

It’s so painful. I never imagined that this would happen. As much as I would want to not think about it since there is still no validity in all of this. It’s still hard. People are involved. A lot of relationships will get ruined. A lot of issues will surface. And I can’t handle that.

I always thought that I was one of the lucky ones to lead a semi perfect life. But I guess it will never happen if this thing is proven.

I just can’t deal really. It’s all too new and scary and shocking and depressing all at the same time.

I told myself never to go back being depressed but with the way things are turning out, I can’t seem to do that. I’ve been having a hard time getting the sleep I need and this is not what I need right now. This is adding fuel to the fire. I can’t even tell the people I’m close to. They might understand but they won’t fully understand because even I can’t understand it. How will I get myself across when I haven’t seen the other side?

I just need the strength right now. Getting it from where, I don’t know. I still have to find that. I’ve lost all motivation and I have to retrace my steps and find my way back. But I guess the birds must have eaten the bread crumbs. And I’m lost in the middle of a forest.

Help me get through this.

i am grateful tag from Jeanny

things i am grateful for:

1. waking up to seeing my kids happy
2. we can still provide our kid's needs while on a shoestring budget
3. hubby and i have good jobs
4. having more than enough friends that can last us a lifetime
5. getting the motivation and encouragement that i need to get through the day
6. eating 3 square meals a day or more
7. our kids having the best education they could possibly get
8. worrying about the good problems
9. maintaining the positive attitude that i strive for
10. being able to do what i want and slowly pursuing my dreams


*Start Copy*In order to be able to achieve and maintain happiness we need to, actively, be able to do two things: Complain and then let go (Dump the baggage, the roadblocks to happiness.) Express Gratitude (The open expression of gratitude promotes happiness.) After all, everyone has something to be grateful for and/or something to complain about. If you would like to take the challenge, please follow the appropriate link and do so: “Are You Grateful?“, “Complain Complain Complain.”

more photos can be found in my multiply

not 100% functional

down with the flu and almost using up a pack of tissues in a day, how can i be a hundred percent? along with the erratic temperature here in the office, one minute is hot and sticky, the next is the north pole.

and then there's this unexplainable feeling inside me (jebs? nah.) my body feels like 2x its normal weight. i feel like 140 pound heavy and quite sluggish.

must be the colds and stress?

i want this to be over.

bad drivers should be hanged

like this guy:

to the driver of the grey tamaraw fx with the plate number UAX 752 i have something to say to you:

i hope one day your impatience and arrogance will pay off. that one day we see you again. this time you getting caught for any driving violation. you deserve it big time.

we were simply following traffic regulations and were basically waiting for our turn (the stoplights at rockwell / colpal area are not functioning so we only rely on the good old guards/traffic aides of bel air/rockwell. but you impatiently kept on honking your horn at us for at least 4 times. and please consider that it was traffic. cars can't simply fly mister.

and you trying to cut us when we were finally given the chance to go. tsk. your hot-headedness
will get you no where but into more trouble.

i hope later on the way home we won't "bump" into you again.

be careful with this driver. such arrogance and impatience but really nothing to brag about.

or maybe he was having a bad stomach and was looking for the nearest toilet. ha!

karma will be a bitch to you. i promise.

LP# 3 Apat na Kanto

ang ikalawang lahok para sa litratong pinoy para maging ganap na kasapi ng grupo. ito ay isang pagsubok sa macro shot ng aking hamak na canon ixus.

masamang bisyo.

ngunit itoý hindi maiwasan dahil sa hirap ng trabaho. isip dito isip doon. ito lang ang isa sa mga bagay na nakakatulong sa pag luwag ng isip kahit sa loob lang ng 5 minuto bago bumalik sa trabaho. oo masama nga, wag na rin tularan. balang araw, ititigil ko ito.
