I want longer hair!

I want longer hair!
I haven't experienced having such long hair. The longest hair I've had was probably armpit level. That's all! I know it's my fault for cutting it and not letting it grow and stuff but it's just that I can't afford growing damaged hair either. It's not nice to grow damaged hair anyways. LOL.

Thinking about it, since it's helpless for me to grow perfect hair, I would just let it grow anyways and who knows? Might be able to resolve its damages when it's long already and not cutting it on its way to becoming long. LOL.

I really want to have a very long hair. I don't know why but there's really something right about long hairs. Makes someone pretty, eh. Like, whatever. I don't know. But really though. Also, it's kind of easier to style it and do all sort of things to it. Can do all DIY Pinterest stuff. And it makes any outfit a little nicer.

I have a co-intern with a very long hair and she said it's hard to maintain and all that. But I just want to try having one. I can always cut it off whenever I don't feel like it, yeah? Growing it is the problem. I actually don't know if it fits me or not but whatever. LOL. So yeah.


Call me ambitious or whatever but I really want my hair to be this long or probably a little more over it. I'm probably nuts LOL. But I'm seriously serious.

Star City, Philippines. A Look Back.

Star City, Philippines. A Look Back.
We usually go here during Christmas or just about any HOLIDAYS that we feel like going. We had quite a history with this place. I noticed how it changed over time and it's just so nice. This place is in the center of Manila. Anyone in Manila would know where this is located. Or at least would have an idea.



Can I just share this post with you? Because I'm pretty proud of myself when I was reviewing pictures when I got home. LOL. Pretty good right? Can I just also share that I haven't had a chance to ride this. I don't know but because of all the attractions inside the park, it seems unconventional to ride this. Also, queue line is so long. Or not really. I don't know. Maybe they should make this ride a little higher to attract me. It's really quite low. Pretty normal. Ugh. Moving on...



Recently, they kind of changed the LION KING ride with this YE OLE PIRATE SHIP. LOL totally made that up but yeah, basically the same concept. Only they kind of narrate the story Lion King on the previous ride so as much as I like PIRATES and all that CARRIBEANY stuff, I still prefer the Lion King ride. Too bad. Should have consulted me first. Haha joke.

     

The ride itself is a circular thingy that can lift 4 persons at most. I don't know if I'm just so obsessed with pirate stuff but definitely good stuff inside. Kind of reminds me of the Pirates ride in Disneyland so yeah. But that's another comparison. It's just that...I'm just saying.


My sisters and I. That pool thingy behind us is still the same though. They probably changed something about it but maybe it's just so irrelevant that I haven't noticed. Oh wells. Oh can I just share that it was my sister's birthday when I last went here.



The park itself is kind of divided into two. Not that there's an official division. There's like an outdoor park and an indoor park. Not that it's more fun outdoor but yeah, the rides there are just more daring. But the rides indoors', not bad. The thing is it's actually air conditioned inside. Star City isn't really a huge park so it's kind of always crowded so I say small spaces for walk like that of the picture above is very much appreciated. 



I believe this one above is the biggest ride there. The ride is quite good! I like it. But not my favourite. This thing is what they so call, an inverted roller coaster and all that. The concept is really nice. It's just that the ride is so short that it doesn't make up for the very long line and the very long time that you have to wait to ride this thing. Not very worth it. But yeah. Whatever. 



My favourite ride is actually this thingy. Ugh. Love!  

Mika and I queuing for SURF DANCE. Oh and Mari too!


Some more rides...Oops! When riding this thing above, ready a comb. You know what to do after taking off. LOL.

So... let's go inside, shall we? LOLJK. Not much inside. 

 

This is from the Peter Pan thingy. 



And just because they have this, ME LIKEY the attraction! LOL. They also have the Eiffel Tower, The Coliseum, and all that stuff. Nice, aye? Well...I don't know much about Peter Pan to be honest with you. LOL. So yeah. :) That must be all about this.

We change.

August 02, 2012 0
We change.

If there's one thing in this world that's permanent. That's change. WOW. I've heard of this so many times that there's no way I can be able to forget it. Thinking about it though, it's kind of hard to accept this fact. That fact that one day, we'll change. It's seriously hard to imagine stuff. I mean, it's extremely alright to imagine yourself change for the better but at the end of the day, there will always be questions.

"Don't change." That's the usual words I hear when there's like some birthday dedications, graduation ceremonies, and all that stuff. But really? Why should we not? We're human beings and we're all subject to change. Subject to improve ourselves. Subject to a better life. Subject to aim for a better change even. So why that words? 

Even if we don't permit some changes, it happens all the time. Our hair grows and so our nails. Day always turns into night.      And all sort of other things. Like, the person that's in front of us lining to McDonald's won't be the same person who'll be in front of us tomorrow. We might be the first in line. That person might line up behind us. Or maybe still the same person. But maybe not the day after that. See? There would always be that sort of changes. 

We might get a perfect mark on a certain test, and fail on another. Thing is we are not perfect. We cannot always be right. We cannot always get what we want. But if we work hard for it, then we might get close.

But how? How can we make things right? How can we change things to the right direction? To the right direction again? 

I mean, is it even acceptable to accept change when there's no reason to change it? Something like, a plastic surgery to a very beautiful person? But that's another thing. I don't want to talk about it now. 

One thing I want to talk about now. Or probably to talk again. Well, not entirely the same though. So yeah. There are just some things I want to share. I had quite some friends when I was still in elementary and for some reason, I only managed to talk to one of them or at least constantly. That one person happened to be my best friend by the way. In high school though, I probably have more. But what happened? Maybe because of different schedules now that we're all in college and  probably some are already working and stuff. See, even that status changed. We cannot always be elementary or high school students. 

Let's talk about relationships. Not that I am an expert or whatever to this. I just want to talk about it. Relationships seem to be so perfect at first. Then there will be some fights after that few days (or months) then there will be forgiveness. Then there would be other things to fight to. Then there will be forgiveness. And after some more repetition, there wouldn't be forgiveness anymore. There wouldn't be anything to fight to, no more to fight for. Why so? Maybe because the level of tolerance of the other party changed. Or maybe because the level of offense changed as well. Or maybe it's just their feelings that changes. And then they part.

That kind of change though is very sad. Because for all I know, two people have to promise to always be there for each other and all that stuff. 

I will get a  little bit personal here though. Or maybe no. Click here to read. I failed that time. I promised myself not to talk to that person ever again but I just can't. I wasn't able to imagine life without talking to that person. Like, we used to talk at night and talk about the random-est stuff in this world and just laugh at anything. I used to feel butterflies in my stomach, how cheesy that may sound. But I don't know what happened. I actually talked about him that and he said that it's not me. It's him and all that rubbish. Just a little bit of history though, read it here. Like, for reals.

Like, I can't remember doing anything. So I have been wondering why our conversations end. Like, out of the blue, it's as if we don't know each other at all. That bothers me a lot. And to my surprise, it's as if he don't care. Oh well. I'd be lying if I say that I am not hoping that every thing will be the same way as it used to be. But I am not lying to tell you that my hopes aren't that high anymore. And it's definitely okay if we wouldn't be the same way as we were before. Time probably helped me. So I changed. And I am happy because it made me feel lighter about this. But unlike before, I don't feel angry and all that anymore. Like what I've assumed awhile ago, maybe my feelings changed. And I'm assuming his too. And for some reason, I think it's okay.  

So yeah, of course change wouldn't be always POSITIVE. Like that personal experiences I've mentioned above.There would always be negative changes and that sort we should avoid. How exactly? I don't know. Maybe we should always remind ourselves to walk on the right path and stuff like that. 

One thing is for sure though. Change is something permanent. Maybe we're just too busy to notice that everyday, there's a change. How little may them be. May it be the position of the sun when we look at it, or something else. Change will always be there. On what kind of change will it be, we may have full control of it. If not, we can always change it and revert it afterwards. Or not.
