once in a blue moon
She said I tried to mind my own business.
But that sad look on your face, was a challenge to my faith.
Made me wanna chase the dark out of your room.
So she smiled and said hello
Little did she know, he would take hold of her soul.
And never never never let go.
He was fine before he met her,
Eyes like faded jeans, soft and blue
and he had seen everything
and he had been everywhere
Til he turned his gaze her way
Longed to see her everyday
Heard a voice inside him say
He'll never never never be the same.
Once in a while
Once in a blue moon.
There comes somebody like you
They caught fire and they got fever.
He was more than fun
She was more than young
And the orange setting sun was beautiful
Ever so at ease in the summer evening breeze
They would talk and they would tease
And never never never want to leave.
Once in a while
Once in a blue moon
There comes somebody like you.

my real age
You Act Like You Are 22 Years Old
|

You are a twenty-something at heart. You feel like an adult, and you're optimistic about life.
You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.
You're still figuring out your place in the world and how you want your life to shape up.
The world is full of possibilities, and you can't wait to explore many of them.

a quick hi!
i am super busy these past days. both work and non-work related stuffs. it's tiring, but super fun. i've been travelling a lot, eating a lot, and gaining weight a lot. I promise to play badminton ASAP since weight loss pills are not an option, and of course, to watch carefully what I eat. I am actually in the state of cramming now, so, I'll just leave you some underwater shots from last weekend's escapade.

mga serena! hahaha!

she got the best underwater pic, such a cutee. =)
xoxo!

Latest Mistake
There is part of me that wants an answer
And part of me that doesn't want to know
Part of you that I am in love with
And the part that I am willing to let go
This is a delicate unraveling
Now and then I find pieces on the floor
Tiny little bits that tell me
Maybe I shouldn't do this
Or love you anymore
Someone's gonna have to fess up
Someone's gonna have to clean this mess up
'Cause I wanted you the first time
And I loved you from the second
And I don't know how that ever goes away
As far as I can tell
You're really good at talking
So I think its time you let me know
I'm just your latest mistake
I wonder what will make you happy
I wonder what you'll do with it all
I have a map in my head
Somehow still don't understand
Why I always have to miss you
Why I have to make the call
Someone's gonna have to step up
Someone's gonna have to clean this mess up
Before you drive me away
Take a good look at me, baby
Picture me not lying on your couch
Well, I wish the best for you
Everytime you go thru this
Before you finally figure it out
~MM

monday
today is a very tired Monday. But, I have no choice but to go to work.
Weekend was fun and crazy since Cebu is in festive mood because of Sinulog. Me and my friends went to the street to party with thousands of people, but, never had the chance to take beautiful photos because of the rain shower and because we didn't have a perfect view. We just walked around and careful not to get lost with each other. A GPS would be very helpful that time, because text messages came in late because of the very busy network. Seems like everyone is texting, and calling each other.
have to start working now! Will post pix soon.
xoxo ;)

crazy thoughts
i did mention couple of times the line "if mag sobra-sobra pa lang akong kwarta" in conversations i had with friends. and made me think, if only i have that much money as of the moment, what would i buy?
now, the daydreaming begins.
i want to own a house and lot, and a car. a condo unit would be ok too, for a single woman like me, where i can invite friends over once in awhile for a house party. awww... what a scene. and of course, i am driving a car. a picanto would be nice. a more posh car is better, but, i am already happy with the picanto. hahaha, murag true.
but then, by having a condo unit and a car of my own would mean i'll be having more bills to pay. electric bills, water bills, auto insurance, etc. so, balik nalang ko sa akong small room and mag jeep nalang. hahahah!
ok, back to reality.

what hurts the most
I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let them out
I'm not afraid to cry every once in a while
Even though going on with you gone still upsets me
There are days every now and again I pretend I'm ok
But that's not what gets me
What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was tryin' to do
It's hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I go
But I'm doin' It
It's hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I'm alone
Still Harder
Getting up, getting dressed, livin' with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade give away all the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken
What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
Not seeing that loving you
That's what I was trying to do

batchoy
oh gee, i think i really need to slow down my kamalditahan. well, i am a little in control now i guess, keeping things by myself, and all rude comments are just kept secretly on my mind. (maldita diay gihapon)
--
something's really wrong with my lappy. at a certain hour of the day, it will just disconnect from the internet. and all i can do to reconnect again is restart her. what's going on here? huhu. it's probably doing some updates on a particular time? or probably some hardware problems? (yaw tawn Lord, spare this maldita from expenses..) or the video card? (unsay labot? wakekekek, but who knows?)
--
i know i make some people happy for being such an angel. you really, really should be happy now. i am completely hands-off. i can imagine you with all smiles. (mo smile nalang pod ko.)
--
time for a very hot batchoy. woohoo!

lazy night
just me, my bed and my cable tv for couple of hours, changing from one channel to another, and just practically got lazy last night. haven't done that for quite awhile now, i realized. i've been working so hard for the past months, that as what a friend would put it, "daig ko pa daw ang may anak". so i have my weak body to thank for the laziness last night, that i was able to drop everything that i am doing.
so, i was also in my "thinking mode" last night, that made me question a lot of things. made me question if the things that i am doing are really worth my time, my efforts and even my heart and soul . so, the word QUIT did cross my mind. but i know it's not yet the right time. i have to wait for the perfect time til i cut the sole string that attached between one pole to another. patience is a virtue, so they say.
so, this is an unsual entry of mine. blame it to the gloomy weather.

false hopes
i tried not to be disappointed over something/someone anymore.
and i wish i am more in control of my emotions than i am right now.
i can hide. i can suppressed the feeling.
but, i can't deny that i am feeling it.
i can play nice.
i can divert my attention and feeling,
just not to turn this thing into anger.
but you see, this feeling is something that money can't appease.

mawnin thoughts
some people....
- are just naturally annoying. i don't know what's with these people. they join into conversations, making jokes that are just irritating to my ears. next time, if you are not really sure on what to say, just shut up, listen, and laugh if you want to laugh.
- are just naturally uber-friendly. nothing wrong with being friendly actually. but, hey, you should go through a certain stages of friendship, you know. so, you should know when to just plainly say HI and SMILE, and when to share your life story.
- are just naturally "maldita". ok, that's me. and I am learning to slow it down a bit. Hehehe.

all cleaned-up!
part of starting the new year right is cleaning up everything. From cleaning up my soul, my room and even cleaning up my phonebook. Delete and mga dapat e.delete! Joke! Seriously, the best time to start all cleaned-up is NOW. And having this positive attitude with me gives me a positive perspective and slowly, things fall into its place.
and slowly, I am back on my being OC. I was super OC before that I literally want everything to be in perfect place, until it just vanished. But I am glad, it's back! Hehehe.
so, now I am thinking of using air tools to make some fixes in my room. joke!

new year thoughts
(edited)
i may not able to get everything that I wanted for Christmas (probably Santa knew I wasn't good last year) and it's ok. What matters most is I made a lot of people happy. I was overjoyed to see how happy my relatives are! I really miss my Auntie. I can still remember her last Christmas. She was so happy to see me together with some of my friends.
---
i hope I am starting my year right. I made some new friends at the start of the year, and it's amazing! it's nice knowing people and having some discoveries about things you never even thought about.
ok, i was determined to start the year right, except that a negative feeling infected for a short while. I just can't believe why people do such unexpected thing to you, when you are not even doing anything bad to them (not even a hi or hello that can disturb a second of their time). and this person did not know that I knew this. And you see, I am a changed person. I did not bother to confront this person. So, no worries dear.
good thing, i have these new friends that distracted me of wallowing the nega feeling. and of course, the determination to stay positive.
---
ok, back to reality again. back to working hard. back to checking my cc bills. I want to pay it ASAP so that I can buy one of these Oakley watches that I am eyeing... no, that can wait... my priority is an Oakley shades. :)

1st Entry of the Year
So, I think I'll start my year with hopes, wishes and resolutions.
I am a work in progress, and I hope this year, I hope to be a better person than I was before. I think I need to work more with my patience, understanding and yeah, anger management!
I also want to be very careful this time to whom to trust. Sometimes, I am too trusting I guess. If I trusted you, I will put my heart into it, and at the end, it's me who will get hurt.
I also hope to provide and support my family's plans. Like my Mom have so many plans for our house improvements ( from renovation to having those Price Pfister faucets) and I wish to contribute some financially.
And of course, good health, to be physically fit, more opportunities, to stay beautiful always and have a happy heart.
Happy 2009!
