Lazy Sunday afternoon in Cebu

6 Replies

It’s a lazy Sunday afternoon here in Cebu City. I woke up a bit early because of the breakfast call and went back to bed after checking my online accounts. Blame it on my current accommodation for making me feel lazy today.

It’s a lazy Sunday afternoon in Cebu

I am seated right now in an outdoor coffee shop here somewhere in Ayala Cebu waiting for my friends to come. I visit Cebu at least twice or thrice a year and the funny thing there is I often go here not for the beaches and other adventurous activities outside the city proper, but because of the friends I met here. I am willing to book roundtrip tickets just to go here.

I Keep Coming Back to Dagupan!

3 Replies

Last week, I went to Dagupan City. My main purpose is to attend the wedding of Ruby, one of my closest friends in high school. I admit feeling lazy to travel by bus again since I want to just work on my laptop the whole week, but this is an important event in a friend’s life that I shouldn’t miss.

Lost in Tebeng but still smiling =)

Together with Maire (another close high school friend of mine), we rode the 9AM Five Star Bus trip from Cubao to Dagupan. I stayed in their place and it is my first time to visit her house in YEARS. I am quite surprised that there’s a lot of CCTV cameras around! I guess it’s for safety purposes since they have some apartment spaces for rent on the third floor. This seems common in apartments like Toronto Apartments for Rent. One time, I got caught dancing via CCTV 0_o Still thinking if I should upload that part or not =))

Anyway, I want to share what I did in Dagupan last week. I am planning to write about the different establishments I’ve been to in Senyorita and will write a longer entry about Ruby’s wedding soon.

On Turning 25 and Other Concerns

10 Replies

I am suffering from mild headache as I type this entry here in my ‘office’. I slept at 3AM, woke up at 12noon for lunch with my grandparents and went back to bed at 2PM. My supposed short nap was extended to four hours. I think oversleeping is the cause of this sudden headache of mine. I thought that a Jollibee meal and a dose of my favorite Iced Mocha can cure me. I guess I’m wrong.

Smooth-sailing at 25.Â

Heavy rain. I want to buy medicine, but the rain is making me lazy. I just finished a Mother’s Day post and the fact that I have a lot of travel-related backlogs makes me want to hit my head on the wall. How can I not blog about these wonderful memories from the past months?

Now that I am stuck here, I will just write and write and write whatever hits my head.

Ika-13 Araw ng Enero 2012

5 Replies

Ang kalendaryo ay muli na namang pumatak sa ika-labing tatlo ng Biyernes at nagkataon pa na sa buwan ng Enero pa! Matagal na ang haka-haka tungkol sa dinadala diumanong malas ang ganitong petsa. Ewan ko kung may inbisibol anting-anting lang ako, pero lagi naman akong masaya sa tuwing sumasabit sa araw na ito.

Ika-labing tatlong utos: I-shoot mo ito!

Hindi naman talaga tungkol sa suwerte o malas ang nais kong isulat sa aking websayt. Gusto ko lamang ibahagi sa kapwa ko Pilipino ang mga gumugulo sa isipan ko noong mga nakaraang araw. Kapag nasa loob ka lamang ng bahay at halos walang ginagawa kundi ang matulog, kumain at magbabad sa harap ng kompyuter, kung minsan ay naglalakbay ang iyong isipan sa dako pa roon. Saan ‘yun? Ewan.

O eto na ha uumpisahan ko na. Halo-halo ito kaya huwag masyadong maguluhan. Kung sumasakit na ang ulo mo, eh di ‘wag ka nang magbasa. Hehehe.

This is my December – Excited and Thankful

9 Replies

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. Continue reading →

I WANT to write a long blog entry about the things that I am worried about

But

I NEED to sleep. I think I am just physically, emotionally and mentally tired.

UNCERTAIN. UNSURE. DOUBTS. FEAR. Those words are bothering me for the past few days. If only I can do all the things I WANT and NEED to do all at the same time.


Goodnight World. Gah. Overthinking sucks :/

Random Choose-Day Tuesday Ramblings

6 Replies

When FRUSTRATION strikes, it causes SLEEPLESS NIGHTS.

SLEEPLESS MORNING in my case. My sleeping routine got worse and even I am not happy about it. There are times wherein I wish I have a meeting somewhere or have a scheduled trip just for my body clock to adjust. My dark brown window curtain is not helping either. It’s too dark and the bed weather is not helping either. I blame climate change for everything. #walangmasisiLOL

Choose Your Destination

Anyway, it’s CHOOSE-DAY TUESDAY! I’ve been stuck here at home for the past three days, but it doesn’t mean that I am not doing something productive. Well, I tried to list down some things that I would like to accomplish in the coming years (long-term goals). I just realized that I lost my date sensibilities after a coffee shop threw my planner (did they or did someone.. nah) and I have a super disorganized schedule. Is it really Tuesday today?

Let me share some of the things I choose to do (at least write on an intermediate pad LOL)

#ilovemydadeventhough

Tomorrow is Father’s Day! I have a feeling that most bloggers are busy writing articles related to this special day – whether that includes quotes, songs, gift ideas, poems, movies and so on and so forth. I am more of a Twitter person now and I realized that the hashtag #ilovemydadeventhough is the second trending topic tonight. Because of this, i am inspired to write a random post about my dad.

I'd rather keep this image of you in my mind =))

I will be posting 40 RANDOM FACTS ABOUT MY DAD. I won’t be editing this entry. I will just say whatever i want to say. Why 40? You will know why by the end of this post. Please read, ok?

  1. Ang pangalan ng tatay ko ay Joseph Arsenio. Ang palayaw niya ay Jojo.
  2. Ikatlo siya sa anim na magkakapatid. Pero siya ang pinaka-cool (s’yempre, tatay ko yan eh LOL)
  3. Kung hindi ako nagkakamali, tatlong eskwelahan ang pinasukan niya bago siya nakatapos ng kolehiyo. Hindi naman bopols ang tatay ko, tamad lang. Pitong taon ata siya sa college. At least naka-graduate diba? Continue reading →

Kuro-Kuro sa Araw ng Kalayaan

Ika-labing dalawa na naman ng Hunyo. Paniguradong maglilipana na naman sa daan, dyaryo, tv at internet ang larawan ng pinakamamahal nating bandila. Buong-pagmamalaking iwinawagayway ng ilan sa ating mga kababayan ang simbolo ng demokrasya ng ating bansa.

Carlo makes his own Philippine Flag

Naalala ko noon na paborito ng kapatid kong si Carlo na mangolekta ng Philippine Flag. Sinubukan ko nga siyang bilhan noon ng iba’t ibang klase ng bandila, pero ayaw niya. Interesado lamang siya sa Philippine Flag. ‘Tila makabayan talagang maituturing ang mahal kong kapatid. S’yempre, ito ay aking ikinagagalak. Ibig sabihin ay marunong siyang magpahalaga sa kanyang bayang pinagmulan.

Random Thoughts of an Uninspired Blogger

8 Replies

An uninspired blogger is pushing herself to write random thoughts to bring her blog groove back. There’s a dozen of pending posts at the draft section and all she does is write a short introduction, think of an awesome title and clicks the draft button. Nice. I wonder when she’ll ever publish those posts.

Where is my Pocketful of Sunshine hiding? Take me Away!

See, this uninspired blogger is turning twenty four years old. She’s been lazy, unproductive and sad the past few days and the bad thing there is she can’t really figure out why she feels that way. Is it because she’s still in-denial that she’s once again away from her family? Is it because of the sudden twist of events that made her face the bittersweet taste of reality? Is it because of the hot weather? Is it because she’s making too much excuses right now and she’s being unreasonable?
