[Random Thought]...

Hello good morning, how are you? I hope you're doing fine. Do you still remember me? Ako kasi oo. Mala-"I remember the boy, but I don't remember the feeling anymore" ang peg ng stage of life ko ngayon. Yeah, I'm still moving on from the heartbreak. Mahigit apat na taon na din mulang nagsimulang iyakan kita sa kagagahan ko. Eto ako ngayon, sinusubukan, lumalaban mag-isa para sa mga pangarap nating ginawa nung nasa "magulong unawaan"stage pa tayo. What we had was childish, but cute. Natutuwa akong malaman  through our common friends that you also liked me, but not the way that I do, and it was also too late. Two years after the first heartache saka ko lang nalaman na gusto mo ako. At naiinis akong di mo man lang pinanindigan yung pangako mong after two years, ikaw ang magiging boss ko. Hindi na ako umaasang tutuparin mo pa ang pangakong yun pero nasa isip ko pa rin palagi ang pangakong yun. Promises are meant to be broken di ba? At mas pinili mong sirain ang pangako mo't iwan akong broken. Dati, gusto kitang sugurin sa probinsiya mo sabay sampal sa yo. Pero what's the point? May mga bagay na dpat i-let go, and I'm choosing now to let you go and move on without you. Hindi na kita kaaawaan, di na kita hahayaan abusuhin mo pa ako ng mga favors mo. Matuto ka nang magkaroon ng sariling bayag at tumayo sa sarili mo. Nagpapaganda na ako, inaayos ang buhay. Para pag nagkita tayo kasama ang true love ko, pagsisihan mong sinaktan mo ako't sinira ang buhay ko. Ay oo nga pala, hindi mo pa alam kung gaano nasira ang buhay ko dahil sa ginawa mo. Oh well papel, malaman mo man o hindi, it won't matter anymore. masaya na ako sa buhay ko, kasi ngayon ko lang na-realize na kaya ko palang maging ganto kalakas, kahit wala ka na sa buhay ko.

[Random Thought]Almost

Almost by Jessica Jung

"can you tell me
how can one miss 
what she never had
how could i reminisce 
when there is no past
how could i have memories 
of being happy with you boy
can someone tell me how can this be

how could my mind 
pull up incidents
recall dates and times 
that never happened
how could we celebrate 
a love that's too late and 
how could i really mean 
the words i'm bout to say i yeah

i missed the times 
that we almost shared
i miss the love 
that was almost there
i miss the times 
that we use to kiss
at least in my dreams
just let me take my time 
and remin..
i miss the times 
that we never had
what happened to us 
we were almost there
whoever said 
it's impossible to miss 
when you never had
never almost had you..

i can not believe i've let you go
or what i should have said is 
i shoulda grabbed you up 
and never let you go
i shoulda went out with you
i shoulda made you 
my boo boy
yes that's one time 
i shoulda broke the rules

i shoulda went on a date
shoulda found a way to escape
shoulda turned it almost into 
if it happens now its to late
how could i celebrate 
a love that wasn't real
and if it didn't happen 
why does my heart feel

i missed the times 
that we almost shared
i miss the love 
that was almost there
i miss the times 
that we use to kiss
at least in my dreams
just let me take my time 
and reminisce

i miss the times 
that we never had
what happened to us 
we were almost there
whoever said 
it's impossible to miss 
when you never had
never almost had you"

I just feel sharing this song. Nakaka-relate kasi ako... dati, hahaha Pero parang ngayon din, ^^ Grabe nakakahiya na talaga ako. Ba't nga ba kasi lagi na lang akong waiting in vain? 'Yung totoo, kelan ba kasi siya ibibgay sa kin ni Lord? Well, keri lang, 23 pa lang naman ako. Di naman masyadong nagmamadali.

Random thoughts #1

Ewan ko ba... The last time that I felt this way was 3 years ago pa. I was looking forward to this day to come but all of a sudden I'm regretting it, somehow. Not totally. History repeats it's self ika nga, ba't ganun? Ganun ba talaga ako ka-gaga sa larangan ng pag-ibig? Bullshit! Eh di ko nga mahal yung taong yun eh, crush lang. CRUSH lang. Pero ba't ganto? Parang yung first or second stages ng mga sakit na naranasan ko noon kay Hatsukoi parang nararanasan ko ulit ngayon? 'Yung totoo, kelan ba kasi ako pagbibigyan ni Kupido na masuklian din itong nararamdaman ko? Nakakatakot ba akong tao para maging undeserving sa ganung klase ng relasyon? Hindi ba ako karapat-dapat makaramdam ng ganun? Nasusuka ako sa mga sinasabi ko ngayon, kasi wala pang Pebrero pero pumapag-ibig na naman ako, at ang gulo-gulo na naman ng nararamdaman ko. Pakisampal nga ako pag nakita niyo ako sa tabi-tabi. -_-

Happiness is a Skill: Save the best for last!!!!!



This one made me re-think. But with my mind that is a bit rigid, digesting this blog's message will definitely hard for me.

I Had A Dream...or should I say NIGHTMARE, O.O

            I woke up from a dream this morning that made me ask myself, “What was that for?” As a dream interpretation enthusiast, I didn't just put a “never mind” stamp on that matter. What was my dream all about that made me agitated like this? In my dream, my family lived in an abandoned building that seemed to be a hideout of typical crime syndicates. My family has a big debt and the lenders are hunting for them. Their only means  to pay those lenders was to “sell” me to a politician who wants me for his sexual needs. Their debts in return of my body. I love my parents, but I don't want to give my purity just because of that reason. I said “no” with sturdiness in my diction and voice. The words “dignity” and “principle” are already flashing on my mind, but my parents were insisting me to do so, saying that it's a necessity and I should do it for their sake. The politician was already examining me from head to foot. If I am not mistaken, he is already at his mid-50s, and he looks at me with full of lust, and said “bata pa”. At that time I've been aching to escape and get out of my place. I can't remember how it happened but he succeed with his plan. He did something that was against my will and I can't bear the pain. He wanted to do it again, and I couldn't take it any more. As I wander my eyes through the lifeless room of the abandoned building, I saw a window without glasses where I could fit my body and escape from the misery I'm in to. When I found an opportunity, I ran to the window and escape from the building. But the politician has two bodyguards who he commanded to capture me and bring me to him. I was able to escape the vicinity of the building, and because of my eagerness to escape those bodyguards, I reach a mall that is so strange. The basement and lower ground floor seemed to be on the bottom of the ocean, the mall was like 6 or more floors high, and it has fountains inside that reaches the ceiling. The chasing keeps on, to the point that I plead a Chinese/Italian/American express restaurant owner to allow me to hid myself on their storage room. Their storage room was too small, and all of their equipments and cooking stuff was made of stainless, like the ones usually seen on a cooking TV contest. The last scene I can remember in that dream was that I was looking at a big stainless box of mixed left over food, there were cheese, pasta, macaroni that are still palatable and can be eaten. Weew, what an odd dream!

            I search the internet about the interpretation of my dream and found out that being rape in the dream means that the dreamer was powerless and humiliated in reality at some point in his/her past. Also, according to the article I have read, this dream could have been triggered by a recent event. Night before I sleep, I had a conversation with a friend who wants me to tell the reason why the people around me, even a former dean, are pushing me to be on top of the upcoming board exam. I wanted to tell him, but I can't because the incident is too fresh that I can still feel the pain every time I reminisce it and there are too many people that was involved in that incident to point that there were relationships that were broken and agitated. I wanted to share my experience and feelings about that incident to him, but I am also bound by my promise to myself and to my Alma Mater, a promise to protect all the prominent people involved, especially the sensitivity of that case. I can't just blurt it out to him, for the things at stake are too heavy to handle. Maybe that made me powerless to tell him my story, a humiliating story that conveys a lesson on principle, discernment and dignity that he might learn something but I can't tell him especially in written form. Maybe one day he might knew it, but not this time.

            Another thing that I would like to put on emphasis is the part when my parents in my dreams forced me to do things against my will. In reality, this is a fact. I've done a lot of things against my will for their sake even if I got to the point of destroying myself. I sacrificed my principles for their benefit. I arrived to that decision because the problem was caused by me, and the only thing I could do was to let go my stand so they won't suffer that much like I do. Up until now, I've been putting down my belief even if it's painstaking just to keep my family intact. They cannot accept the fact that I don't want to be part of the church they are part of. I can't even introduce to them that I want to be part of a new church. I feel I'm being choked, I respect that they wanted to stick with our current church but I hope that they respect what I believe in. Every Sunday, instead of devoting my time to God for 2 hours, I can't help myself but to flew my mind away from what's happening during that 2 hours ceremony. I feel suffocated, I'm not growing spiritually with the church they want me to stick with. I hate conformity, and that is definitely against my will. I'm not growing with the traditional method of preaching of that church, and I can't bear it any more. I feel like I'm dying inside. How I wish this agony will end immediately.

The War Inside ~critical thoughts~

            It's almost a year when the incident has passed but I can still fell the agony and guilt. I read on a horoscope reading site that for an Arian to manifest his(in my case, “her”) straightforwardness, an Arian must avoid negative emotions such as resentment, regret, and self-pity. I am still resentful due to my mistakes, I can't stop myself from looking back to the past that could have been better if just didn't let myself gave in to the tide of my feeling. I read on  fact-stating fanpage in Facebook that overthinking creates problems that weren't existing at the first place. I can see myself overthinking frequently, and for me to resolve this overthinking, I need to look back to contemplate and do some checking on what should I have done to prevent things from happening. Still, can't find the answers, and end up having a guilt feeling because of everything happened. As I recall tons of memories, the burden becomes heavier and heavier. If I were to specify each regret it would be too much of pain. I already said in my graduation photo caption I posted in my Facebook account that:

 “Bitterness is the result when we hold on too much of the past. Past is past, but that doesn't mean everything should be left behind the past. Part of this past are mistakes that were uninvited at its occurrence due to some circumstances, but in order to prevent the same mistakes from reoccurring, one must carry the life lessons learned from those mistakes, become a better and resilient person for every battle fought and won. That's the SILVER LINING OF MISTAKES – a bag of new lessons for you to carry on. ”

            If I am defeating my own statement, that means I am a hypocrite. I hate hypocrites, and since I am hypocrite then I hate myself too, which in turn a form of self-pity. I must let go these negative emotions, but I still feel so afraid and weak to do such things. I wanted to give up all of this to Him but I am having doubts, and afraid that I may take advantage of Him. I still want to maintain the equilibrium inside me, I want to be a Christian, but not a super Christian who do hardcore ministry activities and all Christ-centered stuff, have a mindset that I can be ethereal and better than others spiritually. On the other side, I still want to put my feet on the ground, be part of the game the society have been playing for centuries with their tactics and guiding principles that have been passed on from one generation to another generation. I want balance, I want harmony, I want inner peace. I am a human being created by God saved by His Son Jesus Christ. On the other hand, I feel that as a Chemical Engineering graduate I have an obligation on the advancement and salvation of humanity from its deterioration, and as a daughter and breadwinner in the future I have a great obligation to my family. And in my point of view, this is also one of my ways to serve His people, well I don't know if He will account it as a service to His people in honour of Him. I want to be a Humanist, be guided by the principles derived from philosophies I have acquired as I walk along the road, and at the same time I want to be a Christian, be guided by the teaching of Jesus Christ as I walk with Him. There are times that I feel like my principles as a Humanist contradicts my principles as a Christian, and that instances makes me feel indecisive, unmoved. I can't put down one in favour of the other, for I myself has the tendency to be an extremist, and if I choose one from the other, I could be an extreme Humanist or a Super-Christian and I can't bear myself living on the extreme.

            In science, randomness is equivocal to spontaneity, and equilibrium is to stillness. I am pro-spontaneity, I'm not much into orderliness. Every companies' main goal is to be profitable in order to sustain the needs of the company through money. But in order for a company to be profitable, it has to have an ordered structure for it to be balanced. I have learned in our Engineering Management subject that every branch has a manager or authority to follow. Individually, I'm a person who doesn't like being bossed around at extremity, yes you can guide me but not command or control me. Having a strict authority over me makes me feel non-spontaneous. But I must admit that I still can't stand on my own feet, I'm just 20(turning 21 this March) and I still have a lot of things that I should learn. But deep inside, I need to be in equilibrium for me to keep myself at balance. Oh well, maybe I still can't establish a strong foundation, I'm being so rattled and worried like this because once I enter the world of engineering that awaits me, I don't want to conform with the existing system of the company I may be part of in the future. Oh damn, I'm overthinking again! I really hate this! I hope I could resolve these chains of dilemma sooner.
