Y u no Wi-Fi? :(

I really like the BB I got (which I'm super happy for cause I've had my previous phone since 3rd year high school. yeah loooonnggg time) but I can't seem to connect it to any Wi-Fi. Grrr this is so disappointing!! I'm the complete opposite of a techy so this is just really frustrating HAHA :|

Does anybody know how to figure this out? 

They always say that time changes things but you actually have to change them yourself

-Andy Warhol 


It's nice to know that people notice the changes that you try to make in yourself. Positive changes :) These don't happen overnight, but they're worth the time and effort you put in.

I am slowly but surely attaining one goal I set for myself (I made an entry about my goals last October). By next year, I will have already attained this goal and will be very proud of myself.

To those who have set goals for themselves, you're on the right track. To those pursuing such goals, stay diligent. The rewards of your hard work will surprise you.

PS: Happy girls are the prettiest. :)

Two things

1. Mark my words, I will be sexy. Right now I'm just thin but soon, I will be sexy. Model sexy. (My pep talk haha)
2. I miss you and you and you and you. (Those are all different people.)


PS: I wish it were the weekend already. I am sad that school takes up so much of my time.

Manifesto

Drunken nights for the illest of manifestos
Manifestos of which I don't know
Easier to speak when your mind's blown

A tad bit nervous from the get-go

But hey, three cheers for all the chugged beers
And the non-existent stream of tears
Glad I can say that I made it here
Glad I can say that I made it here.

I'm a big fan of intimacy
But the moment's too cold for any one of us to be
At the right place, in a certain time
It's alright, there'll come a chance for honesty 

I don't know if I could ever tell you this
I wouldn't resort to anonymous
But gone is the mad, sad populace
And the hurt that would rub against my wish

It's good to have seen you laughing hard
Even if only from afar
I've always wished you happiness from the start
Til now that we walk our ways apart

PS: I wrote this rapping in my mind :)) There should be a bouncy beat in your head whilst you read. 

No school like Old School

Music from the 90s never gets old. There are only a handful of consistently eargasmic tunes on the radio. I mean, for how much longer can you listen to Katy Perry sing without subconsciously (or for others, consciously) wanting to consummate your very own Teenage Dream? (Props to her though for making such a thought sound romantic.) In light of that, here are two '90s songs (out of all the ones that I love) I think everyone should listen to:

# All I Want - Toad the Wet Sprocket
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0e_clbyUbc

Nothing's so cold as hearing when we lie

The truth is not kind, and you've said neither am I 

# Til I Hear It From You - Gin Blossoms
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7sx32alzeE&ob=av2e

I don't wanna take advice from fools

I'll just figure everything is cool

Til I hear it from you

I love how the simplicity of these lyrics speaks volumes. I don't think most of us has ever driven up to Cali and gotten drunk on a beach there, but I'm sure listening to one of these tunes tugs a bit at the loosened heart strings. 

PS: Gin Blossoms will be performing LIVE IN MANILA on November 18 at the Araneta Coliseum!! Too bad it's a Thursday and I've class early the next day. :(

Thanks for the laugh

This was pretty entertaining =)) What is the average width and length of Filipino wood? 


PS: That last bit was an example of a figure of speech called rhetorical question. Such a question seeks no answer. Unless you're that kind of curious. 

Have a piece of this

I don't consider myself a religious person but I do believe in God and his awesome powers. I find that prayer always calms me, even if I'm not sure whether I'm praying "correctly," if my prayers are worth anything at all, or if I'm praying for the right thing. I seem to second guess my simple act of conversing with God when really, it's this doubt that kills the connection with Him, and blinds me from what it is I am truly seeking. I was doubting if my prayers even worked at all, because I had been constantly praying and praying but had seen no change. It was only last Friday that God told me (through my good friend Seph), that the change I wanted wasn't to be made around me, but in myself. So thank you Lord, for always having my back, and Seph for being amazing without even knowing it!


The other day my mom gave my sister Trixie this One-Minute Pocket Bible for Women and she shared a couple of sayings that caught her attention. I found all that she had said to be true. Here are the ones that I agree with:


Appearance: People see what you are before they hear what you are.
Character: You cannot be what you're not, but you can become what you're not.
Crisis: Crisis always occurs at the curve of change.
Depression: Struggle is the proof you have not yet been conquered.
Desire: The proof of desire is pursuit. You will never possess what you are unwilling to pursue.
Discipline: Champions are willing to do things they hate, to create something they love. (TRUE!!)
Faith: When you want something you've never had, you'e got to do something you've never done. (AGAIN, TRUE!!)
Friendship: When God wants to bless you, He puts a person in your life. :)
Loneliness: Loneliness is not the absence of affection, but the absence of direction. (INDEED!)
Victory: Champions simply make an extra attempt.
Wealth: Wealth is when you have a lot of something you love.


Haha! Seems like I've had my dose of today's life lessons. Here's to growing up :)


PS: Listen to P.O.T's Have a piece of this, either the original or remastered version. It's apt for today's entry. (Support your local artist!)

Row row row this boat

i hate it when like, you want something, but you know that the opposite of what you want is the better thing so you stop yourself from making what you want happen

A friend messaged me about her crush and we ended up talking about stuff of that matter up to around 2:30 in the morning. I blame the cold morning hours for letting me plunge deep into my mind about everything. I like to do what I call "self reflection" just to see where I am these days as well as what I've learned along the way. The italicized statement is what I told this friend of mine. She replies with a simple exactly! and that put us both in the same boat. I guess I could say she and I are rowing around in a pool of feelings both vague and so clear we both just wanna close our eyes to the reality of it. She and I are rowing in a body of water that seems to have no horizon. This could be true (the non-existence of a horizon), but I think we're just rowing rather slowly. We are not, and of this I am positive, rowing aimlessly; we perfectly know what we want for ourselves. It's just the feelings that remain in our humble boat make it a little uncomfortable sometimes to even just be with ourselves. 

There are plenty other boats in this vast vague pool. Knowing that we aren't the only ones here could maybe better the discomfort we sometimes feel. 

Would I be out of line if I said

I never liked saying the words that come after.
