Boo!

Happy Halloween! :)

The Big Surprise

My bestfriend, Margaret, surprised me on the day after my birthday. She came all the way from Taft to be with me here in Laguna. She spent two nights and three days here so the both of us could have enough time to bond and catch up. It's been quite a while since the last time we saw each other, after all.

Margaret, you definitely made me the happiest girl in the world. I had a great time! Thank you so much for this big surprise. You are the best! See you soon. :)

Highschool Never Ends

(Vix Verum: October 22, 2010)

My highschool friends and I attended the annual Halloween party at our alma mater, St. Scholastica's College-Westgrove. It was good to see the sisters (the Benedictine nuns who can still remember us), our former teachers like our beloved adviser, Ms. Whenn, our fellow alumni and our younger friends whom we left when we graduated. Now, most of them are in high school, and they are taller than us! And the night wouldn't be complete without our kwentos and jokes. Just like the old times.

Goodness, I miss high school. :)

Twenteen

(The Butterfly: October 17, 2010)

I am no longer a teenager. Most of the people I meet get surprised when they learn that I'm already twenty years old. And I can't believe it either. But I’m thankful because God has given me another year to achieve and fulfill my dreams, and to become a better and wiser person. I wonder what life has in store for me. Let’s wait and see. ;)

*By the way, I would like to thank the people who greeted me on my special day. You made it extra special. God bless you all! :)*

It's Okay to Get Kilig Sometimes

Upon reading this Psychological Fact on Tumblr, I suddenly got kilig for some reason. ;)

John Mayer

You might get surprised if I tell you that I don’t listen to the music of John Mayer. I wondered why a lot of people were so thrilled when he came to the Philippines on the first day of October. Yes, I’ve heard some of this songs before, particularly when I was in high school, but none of them made an impact on me. Wow, I feel like a contravida in a soap opera.

Until I decided to download some of his songs a while ago.

Upon listening to Heartbreak Warfare, Slow Dancing in a Burning Room, Bigger Than My Body, Why Georgia, Neon and Your Body is a Wonderland, now I know why a lot of Filipino love John Mayer. I realized that his songs are so wonderful and relaxing. His albums could be the perfect playlist to play while drinking a cup of hot chocolate on a lazy, rainy afternoon, while doing paperwork at the workplace, while driving your car or while studying for a really big test. And it could also be the playlist of those who are in-love or nursing a broken heart.

I hope you don’t get mad at me, John Mayer fans. I’m one of you now. :)

Buttercup

(Buttercup: August 2010)

Meet our lovely dog, Buttercup. She’s been with us since May this year. We gave her the name Buttercup because we had dogs named Bubbles and Blossom. :)
