This is my December – Excited and Thankful
HELLO DECEMBER! Wow, that fast? I recall that around this time last year, I was busy doing some last minute preparations for my trip to the UK. Instead of buying new clothes for the winter season, I shopped for Filipino goodies like Lucky Me Pansit Canton, Boy Bawang, Likas Papaya Soap, Cebu Dried Mangoes, Goldilocks Polvoron and so on. My friends also prepared a mini-despedida for me. I didn’t really know what to expect and I don’t have concrete plans at all. You know, the possibility of me staying there for good and meeting my now teen brother Carlo after many years.
Now accepting Christmas presents hehe 
I passed that challenge already and right now, I am here in a coffee shop somewhere in Dagupan City waiting for my high school classmates whom I haven’t seen in years. Yikes. I’m nervous. Weird feeling is weird LOL.
When I wrote my last blog entry, I was a bit emotional (as always). I guess I am now in the stage wherein reality about the future hits me. Read More »
What’s Up, Body Clock?
It’s 6:45AM and majority starts to wake up and prepare for school or work. Me? Well.. I am about to sleep.
I am not working in a call center that requires me to work on graveyard shifts. I also don’t have any clients now from the US or UK to talk or chat with. For the past few hours, i’ve been reading blogs and trying to write on another publishing site. Did I have a productive day… errrr night?

Yesterday, i slept at 9:30AM and woke up for lunch. Went back to bed afterwards and woke up at 6:30pm. I know most would say ‘lucky you!’ or ‘i envy your life!’
But hey, don’t.
Four Years After College…
I left my favorite tambayan at 12:01 AM and on my way home, I checked my beloved N70 phone (Yes, i had it fixed!). I smiled upon reading the reminder I added four years ago with the text “Graduation 
”
Iser, Me and Edmon Four Years Ago
Wow. It’s been four years? FOUR YEARS?!
As a student, one of my professors told me that I looked like a ‘Rebel with a Cause’. Dumbfounded with his impression towards me, he explained that I am the type of person who will do whatever she wants especially when she knows she’s right. Well, that is partly true
Weird Dreams are Made of These
Since I’m stuck at home most of the time, the temptation to take a nap from time to time is there. I have a problem with my sleeping pattern and I believe that it is getting worse.
Dream or Reality?
For example, I sleep at 8am then my grandparents wakes me up at 11:30am to eat lunch with them. At times, I go straight to the bathroom so I can fully wake up but these days, I’ve been going back to bed to sleep some more. It must be the weather and being a freelancer has some disadvantages too. You tend to be a bit more relaxed and you feel like you can do some tasks any time of the day. The bed weather contributes a lot to my tardiness lately. I can’t even carry myself to go to the nearest Mini Stop store.
Anyway, I would like to share some weird dreams of mine. I don’t know if Cinemalaya hangover has something to do with this but I can’t help but laugh on my reactions after every episode in my dream channel. I panicked, got worried, nearly cried and all of a sudden, i want to fall in love LOL. Meh. Yeah, Love. What?
The Beautiful Possibilities of Simplicity
Last Wednesday, I went back to Dagupan City (just after two weeks!) to accompany my grandfather and I originally planned to go to Binalonan (my mother’s hometown) and go with my blogger friends to Bolinao for the weekend, but neither of them happened. I ended up just spending most of my time at a newly-opened coffee shop to work on some blog posts and interact with some online friends.
Dreaming of Manila
I am also quite amused on the developments of my beloved hometown. New coffee shops, food establishments, shopping malls, hotels among others are being developed. Finally, Dagupan City is open for some big changes!
Five years ago, I was a student who wanted to graduate right away. Instead of taking it slow and study for four years, I graduated one semester earlier than my batchmates. The reason? I wanted to leave Dagupan City immediately and pursue a career in Metro Manila.
