Breath in. Breathe Out.
The battle is over.
You lost.
You fought hard.
You thought hard.
You did your best.
But, the worst part is...
There was no battle to begin with.
You thought you were in it.
You thought you were fighting for something.

It was all in your head.

Learn From It

it’s been cold summer nights since we drifted apart
cold summer nights since you walked out that door
cold summer nights..oh, here on my own
coz i miss you baby, i need you here

But how come I still keep on doing these same mistakes? Why?
I should at least get tired, but NO, I get all hyped up doing the same things and end up committing the same mistake.

Wake up YOU! Yes me! Wake up! :|

I'm up for some morning chit-chat. :)

Goodmorning. I just had breakfast with a little bit of hangover and nausea-tic feeling.

I found my friend Jio blogging about college so I decided to blog one too 'coz trust me I have a lot of time to spare. *waves hi to jio*

First and foremost let me tell a little background of my school & college life. I graduated elementary and high school in Siena College Taytay. Then, I was ONCE a freshmen student from UST with the course of BS Nursing. Oh and let me brag that I passed the 2nd year quota despite of my happy-go-lucky personality. So anyway, I decided to transfer into another school and shift into another course which specifically is Bachelor in the Arts of Multimedia Arts in De La Salle - College of Saint Benilde Taft Ave. Manila
(Me: Its complete. Yay! :3)

Lately I'm having lots of dilemma regarding this 'being a transferee' thing and to make matters worse, I'm far from my already known friends because I'm on a separate building and I don't have a stable block. So, I don't know if I would be able to adapt well partly because I'm from a different society and upbringing. To make things clearly, I'm not that pa-sosyal, I'm a little boyish and I have some tambay sa kanto-ish ways especially in the way I talk.

But in a way, I'm kind of excited about this new life sort of thing. I'm glad that I would be studying in a field I am very interested in. I'm excited about working on those not-being-able-to-sleep plates. Well, I guess you can already see that I am overly excited. :)

I also wanna share these lines that some of my good friends told me.
Thank you pala for all of these.
It was really touching and it helped me decide.

From Kaye:

If you know that it will truly make you happy, Louie, you shouldn't think twice. You'd like to come home from work, tired, but happy. ;)

From Janine:

yi! aja louie! i'll support you wtvr road you'll take. haha. do what you think would make you happy. hehe. un lang. hugs tyt,

Eto pa from Janine,

OH MY GOD, LOUIE!!! WAAA. PASUKAN NIO NA DI BA!! WAAAA... YOU'RE NOW CLOSER TO WHAT YOU'VE BEEN ASKING FOR!!! WAAAA... GALING! I ENVY YOU ABIT. HAHAHA. :))) PERO IM HAPPIER NAMAN (I THINK) RIGHTNOW. KAYA OKAY LANG.. WAA.. SUSUNOD NALANG AKO SA YAPAK MO 33YRS AFTER THIS. HAHAHAHAHA. :)))) WAAAAA.. WAAA.. BASTA BALITAAN MO AKO LOUIE HA!!!

(Me: Janine! Ikaw talaga! I love you! Miss ko na ikaw ka-seatmate. :3)

Oh and One more thing!
I miss UST!
I miss my nursing friends!
I miss my hatest subjects (Chemistry, RLE & NCM)!
I miss the YFC-UST family!
I miss my Siena Batchmates!
Darn it, well, I guess ONCE A THOMASIAN IS ALWAYS A THOMASIAN. :3

P.S. Wag na kayo kumontra Exz, Trisha at Clare >;>

A mother's day blogpost. :)

I also believe that parents, if they love you, will hold you up safely, above their swirling waters, and sometimes that means you'll never know what they endured, and you may treat them unkindly in a way you otherwise wouldn't. But there's a story behind everything. How a picture got on a wall. How a scar got on your face. Sometimes the stories are simple, and sometimes they are hard and heartbreaking. But, behind all your stories is always your mother's story, because hers is where yours begins...

- For One More Day by Mitch Albom -

I just finished reading the book where I got that very appealing quote, and I might say, I was really captivated, not just by the quote, but the whole story from the book. Oh, and a confession, actually, I'm quite soft in these touchy-feel-y stuff. I can cry when something is real sad, its quite the same with this book but somehow it is different in a way. I found myself being able to relate in the story and the situation the characters was in but, the funny/stupid thing is I was able to cry while reading the book, in front of my mom, and getting my nails done. (ROFL)

I might say I learned quite a bucketful of life and love lessons from the book and the quote above being a piece of those lessons. And ironically, these lessons fit the occasion for today which is Mother's Day.

So here's the drill. Although our moms are not perfect,
they may seem too strict, a big KJs and just plain naggy,
have you ever thought of
what they endured just to have you where you are tonight?
How many sleepless nights they've spent?
How many oceans they tried to cross?
How many tears they shed?
All just for you...

So, say thank you to your mom for just everything and love with with no regrets.

As for my mom, although she may never have a chance to read this. I love her more than anything. Even though there are so much things I've been wronged at, she loved me more than anything else but I didn't love her just for that reason. *chuckles*
So anyway, I am just so thankful that God gave me to her and I would never ever change it for the world.

I LOVE YOU MOM. :)
and a HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL OF YOU GUYS OUT THERE.

In the midst chaos...

I just finished reading 'The Shack by William Paul Young', and I might say I had a hard time trying to find that book. So, in just a matter of days I managed to finished it because of my utter excitement.

These are some of the passages from the book that appealed to me the most and I wanted to share it with you guys. Its just that I was so moved by its story. Its like what others said about it, this book is like a prayer.

I promise to you guys that if ever I would be given the time, I would write the fascinating things I've learned in that book. :)

PS. sorry for being an amateur. :P

Suprisingly weird. :)

Let me share a very trivial thing. :)

When my high school friends and I went to an event, we took a lot of pictures. My camera back then had a terrible error. Several pictures would get replaced by the picture where the error started. I was really pissed back then because those pictures were very important to me.

What's funny with the whole situation is that the picture that replaced several pictures, and also, the picture where the error started was the picture of someone that surprisingly became an important person to me.
Moreover, I was really pissed back then! *chuckles*

Well, God really works in a different ways, but still, I wonder, if all these really meant something. :)
Oh! I have another story related to the same person, but, that's a different thing to blog about. :P
