Confused

After a year of starting my professional career, I thought I would have a clearer path on what I want to be in the future.  I was wrong, so wrong. I don’t why but lately, I want to do many things. Not that I am not doing anything, but I think they’re not enough. Currently, … Continue reading →

WGAF

Why give a fuck? That was what I told myself when I heard some people made realizations about some things without even asking. I have always been branded as a bitchy person with a very strong personality. But inside the hard exterior, I know for a fact that I am a very sensitive and emotional … Continue reading →

Beaches and Bitches

Last Saturday was the first out-of-town I had with my Elementary/High School friends. It was just a random thought when my best friend came here to Manila and we hang out over a tower of poorly blended cocktail drink. It was really a bit difficult to organize because of our schedules and some people’s notion … Continue reading →

My shoes aren’t meant for running

We all run. It is one of the primal instincts that we have. To run whenever we meet challenges and scary stuff along the way. Sometimes, we are too carried away that we almost forget we’re still on the run. Until we realize, we have ran long enough that we’re already numbed. Just this morning, … Continue reading →

Almost

Exactly a year ago, I lost a brother. We were not really close. There was a point that I actually loathed him. I mean, all brothers, at one point in their lives, fight always. Only in our case, there hadn’t been a reconciliation phase. A point where we could have shaken our hands, hugged each … Continue reading →

Today is my day

Life doesn’t give you a day off. Even if it’s your birthday. You cannot just say “hey, today is my birthday” whenever you encounter inconveniences and stress caused by others. Remember, there are almost 7 Billion people in the world. And 19 million others celebrate their birthday the same as yours. I realized this when … Continue reading →

When I grow up, I want to be…

“What do you want to be when you grow up?” This question had been haunting me since I was in kindergarten. The question kept on resurfacing every year, culminating on my fourth year when I was about to take college entrance exams. But up until now, after barely graduating from college, I still do not … Continue reading →

BGC and ME

Today, I celebrate my first month in BGC. Hurrraaaay! I am really happy because last year, it was only an errand thought. When we had our VC 137 presentation in our professor’s office, me and my two closest buddies in UP Maskom were discussing how BGC is a good place to work in—great atmosphere, visually … Continue reading →

11:16

“Anong oras na sa’yo?” “11:16 po.” That was the only interaction that we’ve had for the past month that I’ve known you. Whenever you were around, either you were sleeping, preparing to sleep or preparing to leave. But that night wasn’t that special. I saw you arrive and go to bed without even changing your … Continue reading →

Less than an Hour

Time Check: 12:10pm I arrived too early at the North Gate of the House of Representatives.  I have an interview at 1:30pm but I was afraid I might get lost or I might be late because I’ve never been to Congress. So I decided to check the location of my interview in the north wing. … Continue reading →
