Would it be too much if I blog everyday for 2020? Yup. It’ll be too much. Anyways, we lit up some firecrackers and blow torotots to cast away bad spirits as the elders would say. It changed, you know. This way of celebration greatly differs from how we used to celebrate the new years. Most of our doings became illegal to start of but yeah we used to light up really dangerous fireworks and stuff which I was never a fan of to be honest. I just like the soft lights and stuff. Mass at Sto. Domingo church We attended Mass just like we used to but we didn’t watch a movie or something. We used to watch another movie during New Year but yeah I’m kinda okay we didn’t because there’s actually no more movie that I want to watch from the MMFF entries. Well Miracle in Cell No. 7 but we probably won’t because my mom doesn’t want to watch stuff like that. Would just want to watch comedy all the time.  After the mass, we ate at Peri-Peri. We had chicken and ribs. It was okay but not really extra o...

2020. End of another decade. I mean, I know it’s all going too fast but man, this year passed by like a breeze. I have stayed in the Philippines for like 11 months now. I have been working for 6 months now and yeah, time just went by like that. I have so many things to be thankful for. I have been in 4 countries in one year. I mean, that’s the life, right? I can’t wait to be in 5 next year! I’m just kidding. Wait, am I? LOL. You know what though, I think I want to visit all the provinces in the Philippines because, I’m already here, right? Might as well! I’m gonna be 28 this year. Like, 28, ladies and gentlemen. OMG. Can I just share that it’s my first time tasting this and yeah not a fan. It’s too spongy for me. I feel like I can have something better at a cheaper price, you know what I mean? That’s all! I won’t be having resolutions because I always fail. One thing I would like to do is to drink lotsa water I think. My SGOT and SGPT levels are on the roof! Also my triglycerides! I ca...

Sheraton Hotel  We went here to visit/guide my dad’s friends when they visited not so long ago. They had a very festive display like the Christmas tree above.  Robinson’s Place Manila Robinson’s Place Manila They also went to a nearby mall to buy souvenirs to bring back home. There was also a very nice display going on there and we took some pictures with it.  Sheraton Hotel Sheraton Hotel They also had/have something going on outside the hotel which is very nice. Festive. Christmas is kind of different nowadays don’t you think? We’ve been talking about it at work and yeah, everything is different now, for sure. I liked the old times better so to speak. My lolo and I would go to my ninongs and ask for AGUINALDO. Bless my lolo. I wouldn’t know right away if they’re home or like hiding somewhere. LOL. Thank you for always accompanying me when I was younger. Now people would just PM/send messages to their godparents. Where’s the thrill? I remember being so happy receiving ne...

I knew that one day, I would have to face this scenario but come on, how could one ever prepare for this kind of loss. My dad passed on the midnight of the 12th. It was very shocking. I actually won’t go into details on that and what happened that day but yeah it happened. I’ve been with my dad for almost 21 years and it’s just sad to say goodbye. My dad is actually hospitalized the same day as we went to Korea. Not for like emergency thing though just for IV antibiotic therapy. But on the third day, I think dad had some kind of trouble breathing and everyone thought he’d be gone but he miraculously recovered. My dad was released the same day as we arrived back to the Philippines. He was weak at first but he kind of recovered. And then all of that came to an end two to three weeks later. My dad then refused to eat anything and was only drinking orange juice up until he passed.  My dad died of COPD. He smoked a lot when he was younger and I can’t help but warn people about what coul...

Already December 3 today! Can you believe it? What's up guys? It's already the last month of 2013 and I only have roughly 4 months left to spend in this country. So I thought I'd share my December plans with you. Not that I have a lot though LOL.  Christmas is just around the corner so I'm looking forward to our Christmas Party. It would be around mid December and since it's the first work-related Christmas Party that I would be attending to, I'm really happy. Although I have been told that we're just gonna eat outside and not really celebrate as in celebrate, I think it would still be something something.  I want to see UST at night. I don't know but there's really something about seeing it at night on Christmas season. It kind of removes the stress from my system and I love it.  UST Annual Paskuhan is also coming up and I wouldn't dare miss that! It would be my last time for a long time so I'm quite excited for th...

And most of the time, we kind of feel hurt about it. I have talked so much about this kind of stuff, I know. But if you would stick to me all through out this, I would be very thankful. It would be very beneficial for me to actually share everything. Well not really share. And not actually everything. It's just that..Oh wells. Well let's just think about this blog as my PENSIEVE okay? Pensieve is actually a certain something in Harry Potter that you use to put your thoughts, and everything you have to into and yeah it just make things easier. You'll have a clearer mind, lighter, and probably better thinking because of the Pensieve that can help you unload all the stuff that you think are too much to handle. Just like what Dumbledore did. And Snape too. So moving on... Don't you just really really hate it when people don't stay the way you want them to become in your life? Not even their attitude. Like, your relationship with them. It's kind of fr...
