loving bob



This is my current song. It's on repeat on my iPod. I almost died while grooving to this tune. Seriously. I know you all love Bob Sinclair. Admit it. We're his love generation.

lemon grassed









Life is as vibrant as this. Even if you are confined to such a small space, you can still grow gorgeously.

"When you're young, your whole life is about the pursuit of fun, then you grow up and learn to be cautious; you could break a bone, or a heart. You look before you leap and sometimes you don't leap at all because there's not always someone there to catch you. And in life, there is no safety net. When did it stop being fun and start being scary?" - Carrie Bradshaw


when worlds collide





I am in on reminiscing mode again. I suddenly missed Dumaguete. I miss Silliman. Watching sunsets and drinking Oreo milkshake in front of the University Library. Those afternoons spent lazing in the A/S Building just people-watching. Those rainy days when I am stuck inside my apartment doing nothing, just watching the rain fall. God! I miss that life. And while reminiscing, I suddenly remembered my college anthem. Every time I listen to this song, it brings me back to that perfect place in Oriental Negros where the white sands and the corals meet the dark blue southern sea ...



A Fairy Tale (Worlds Collide)
By Plumb


We never talked about it
Cause you never even cared
And what you really wanted
I never even had
Cause what may seem right
And what may be wrong
Seems out of sight
In this place we belong
Giving everything

Giving everything for love
I am finding out that its not enough
Theres nothing left between you and I
I am finding faith but losing us (I am losing us)
When worlds collide

Together we seem perfect
A fairy tale for sure
And looking on the outside
You would never even know
We are just not right
When compromise is wrong
Seems out of sight
In this place we belong
Giving everything

Giving everything for love
I am finding out that its not enough
Theres nothing left between you and I
I am finding faith but losing us (I'm losing us)
When worlds collide

We are just not right
When compromise is wrong
Seems out of sight
In this place we belong
Giving everything

Giving everything for love
I am finding out that its not enough
Theres nothing left between you and I
I am finding faith but losing us (I am losing us)
When worlds collide





How about you? What was your college anthem?

How about you? From the list, what stupid stuff have you done so far?


it is over



The hibernation is over.


I have been building a cocoon around myself these past few weeks. And I have enough of this feeling. I am not functioning properly as a human being anymore. A lot has happened since the last time I blogged (not including the depressing entry before this). I always hated June. It’s such a gloomy month. But June is over and we’re now half way through 2006, which reminds me of all the mid-year sale happening almost everywhere in the world. But nah, I have a lot of issues to deal with for now and thinking about shopping is definitely the least of my worries. So, what has happened to me while I was on hibernate-mode? Well, a lot, actually. The best thing, though, was moving in to a new place. I am now sharing an apartment with some friends. It is liberating, cosmopolitan and domestic all at the same time. I still have to furnish my room, though. I still have no bed, no side tables, and no lamps. Nada. I’m still crashing in my housemate Tin’s room for now. Hahaha. Thanks Tin!



My life has been a blur for these past few weeks. I work, I sleep, I eat and I work again and back to the same cycle, day in, day out for five days a week. On my days off, I’m either sleeping at home, eating at home, or watching movies at home. I was never the homebody nor did I made domesticity as part of my New Year’s resolution. Everything just changes when you’re getting older and more mature. I haven’t gone clubbing in a while. The most I did was drink some blue kamikaze while zoning out to house tunes at Numero Doce in Mango Square (Cebu’s latest hang-out!) or maybe that time when I binged on sinful cakes with Tin at Postrio in Banilad Town Center (Cebu’s Alabang Town Center in a smaller scale). I haven’t even watched a new movie in like ages (well, I did watch Superman but not for the movie itself but because Brandon Routh was just hot with the capital O). Life these days is just routine. Nothing out of the ordinary, nothing worth buying a new outfit for.



But I do am looking forward to something. It’s still in the works but if all goes well, then, you’ll be seeing (reading, I mean) more of me here. Just have to iron out everything and hopefully, just hopefully, everything will work out just fine.



The hibernation is indeed over. It’s July and I need to get a life. I cannot continue on wasting the rest of the year sulking over a lame breakup. Hahaha. I miss you all!
