A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely. ~Roald Dahl Just a quick thought for [...]
Are you the type who uses digital planners instead of the old fashioned Pen and Paper? I tried to attempt using digital planners since I have my phone with me ALWAYS! But I’m old fashioned and I stick with pen and paper. How about you? Let me know what you prefer and why… If you [...]
Failing to plan is planning to fail. I have always been a believer of being prepared when it comes to school, work, my daily activities, my own health and even with relationships. I have prepared my mind to stay in a very conservative state of mind. I believe that I don’t have the power to [...]
Every since I bought my MacBook Pro as a gift for myself on Valentines, my life has changed – in better ways and frustrating ways. Until now I am not that used to using it as compared to Windows platform which I have been using my entire life. I must say though, it hasn’t failed [...]
Pride ruins relationships. I don’t know why people cling to this. Most of the time, when I argue with someone, I am the first one to swallow my pride. I know better now than before and I know that it’s just pointless to keep it there. I mean pride in a certain amount is ok, [...]
I haven’t been home for a while therefore we cut of our internet connection so I have no internet at home. Sorry if I can’t update Flaircandy for this week, but I am doing some job here teehee Anyway, just letting you guys know. Will be back soon! Taken at Bascon Cafe near my college [...]
Earlier in one of my blog posts I mentioned how I miss reading again. Earlier this year, I also felt the quarter life crisis kicking in and I felt so depressed and confused but at the same time overwhelmed with the things that I need to do and the tasks that I needed to accomplish. [...]
Today is a very wonderful day! A very touching incident just made my day and it reminded me of why I continue to share my experiences on this blog I get emails here and there from readers asking further questions about my blog posts on my travels, food blogs, fashion and beauty thing-a-majigs and many [...]
Hey guys, I know there are not a lot of Laundromats in The Fort. My friend just opened one and do check it out and have your laundry done here if you live in The Fort. Or, for those who work in the Fort, you can have your laundry done here too Bounce Laundry is [...]
Our lifestyles have changed over time. Most of us can’t stand doing nothing at one certain time. We tinker on our iPads, cellphones and laptops when we’re idle and waiting. I hate lines in the bank. Some banks don’t allow the use of cellphone, so I wait in line for 15 minutes doing absolutely nothing. [...]
Eat Pray Love is an inspirational drama based on a best seller book by Elizabeth Gilbert. It is all about the author‘s search for finding her own self again and documented it on this lovely book. I haven’t read the book but I just watched the movie. Julia Roberts plays her character in the movie. [...]
I really don’t follow this Disney girl a lot. Not until I heard on TV that she admitted herself to rehab not because of drugs but physical and emotional issues. Demi Lovato Twitter Photos I was like “She’s doing fine. Everyone thinks she’s doing fine, but she’s struggling with something.” I admired her for being [...]
It’s the time of the year when every journal junkie is in search for the best planner they could ever have for the new year. Choosing the right planner for you is crucial. This, by itself motivates you to write more and to look at your progress more often. It’s based on experience, if the [...]
One of the biggest, most obvious physical change in my body when I was transitioning from being a teeny bopper to a lady is my chest. It changed my life! On fifth grade, I had my first sign of transition – menstruation! I think I was the first among my classmates that had one and [...]
Self-pity is a way of paying attention to oneself, albeit negatively; it is a means self-soothing or self-nurturing. – Just got that description out of Wikipedia. Apparently, it’s attempting to gain something out of yourself, then you fail. It’s like you helped yourself a lot of times to get someone’s attention, to get a job [...]
I had this random thought while making another blog post earlier. It’s all about the evil word Insecurity. To me, a girl gets insecure the moment she starts to feel that she’s no longer special. It’s all subjective though, it’s all about her feelings. To the guy, she might still be his beloved princess with [...]
Wherever I go, I always stumble and fall. In whatever I do, I have super duper *minor* accidents. I believe in Guardian Angels. For if not, I think I would have died because of my clumsiness… Even if I just walk barefoot, I’d still slip-trip-and-fall… Sometimes I just don’t know what to do with myself [...]
There are times when you wake up and you feel relieved that you are living in the *real* world. I seldom have nightmares… and usually, it doesn’t involve ghosts and monsters… My nightmares involve some of my biggest fears, The one that can hurt me most… My nightmares play with my emotions… And so, [...]
I have been through a lot… I rant around my blog before… I complain and nag… I cried… I appear to be the victim all the time… I lose myself… I always wanted to be the best… I hate failures… I’d hate myself if I don’t achieve my goal… I drown myself with emotions… cloud [...]
It is a very dangerous word. With attachment comes dependency. Dependency means addiction. In absence of it, you will do all crazy means just to have it back and most often than not, you will regret making these insane actions. In order to live without it, you must undergo REHAB… Attachment is not an illegal [...]
New car (I got it today… physically!)… new shoes… I just got back from Singapore… with a whole lot of fun… and all other stuff that I can’t tell here… all I can say is… I’m Happy! A whirlwind of Happiness… Thank you for all the greetings and well-wishes… Watch out for: 1. The Nuffnang [...]
Insomnia Nights = Creative Writing
But that’s not what I’m trying to define!
At first I just wanted to tweet this as a one-sentence micro-blog post, but I am just so overwhelmed with emotions that I typed this post in 3 minutes.
I would have wanted to post a video blog for this but my internet’s bandwidth is as slow as a snail sleepwalking because I’m only using my mobile’s GPRS!
Freedom is like water
Only in your deserts you’ll thirst for her
But no riches can buy her wells
I have an issue, I can’t really blog when I know many people are blogging about some certain topic or that someone blogged about something first before me, unless it would make my blog totally different from them. That’s why sometimes I don’t blog-hop even though I want to. I don’t want to find out [...]
Someone told me I need to blog at least once a day! So, i’ll do my best despite the busy times… Which reminds me, I better get rid of my blog’s RSS to my Facebook before my friends there flag me as a “SPAMMER” I just got back from my Let’s Go Sago Surf Trip [...]
It’s raining these days and I can’t help but agree with the writerxcharacter… There’s just something about the rain (Iba talaga pag umuulan)… JJ, my future mandarin teacher also introduced me to the Japanese kiss the rain… I cried… lovely song nia… thanks! What’s the song to listen when it’s raining… 1. Kiss the rain [...]
Sometimes, when you least expect it… It all just happens… Serendipity… Universe Conspiracy… Opportunity just comes in the least you expect it… and it’s up to you to make a choice to accept your Destiny… So how do you know if something’s right… You will never truly know unless you take risks… If you feel [...]
This idea actually came from my blogger friend ah Leang whose blog posts really are entertaining to me! Initially he blogged about not wanting to date a blogger… but a few days after, he blogged about the reasons why you should date a blogger! Well, dating a blogger has its advantages and disadvantages of course. [...]
It’s November 11, and it was the much anticipated date for BDJ’s official launch at Powerbooks Backgrounder on the BDJ Planner It started in 2005 when Darlene (founder of BDJ) thought of having a planner and toured around the entire mall to search for the perfect one that suits her. Sadly, she could not find [...]
It has been a bumpy two weeks for me. I felt weaker than ever and I abhor the fact that I can’t gather myself all along. Then it hit me that I am needing some soul nourishment. I sought for God and he sent instruments of peace.
I have always believed that we are in control of every situation, that one can separate different thought boxes and juggle things and events professionally, thinking “mind over matter” is the ultimate way to deal with a serious heartache.
