"Live each day as if it is your last" ...

Since I've read this quote on twitter lately, I've come to think about that phrase very often. I'm not really living my life as if it were my last, I rather contemplate or imagine what if today is the day that I'm going to enter a different world. Meaning that yesterday was actually my last day on earth. We all know that we can't control that, this part of our lives. There are medications for sicknesses, examinations if you have cancer or not but there's nothing against accidents. You can be extra careful with what you do, where you go and with whom you are. Maybe being cautious extends your life, but you really don't know how your life will end. These past two or three months I've heard a lot of accidents where the person got killed, or died unexpectedly. I don't want to be in the shoes of these family members. I even find it hard, when an old person dies though this person must be very fortunate because it has at least lived an eventful and fullfil...

I definitely going to miss ... A L O T

Hello! Time check: 00.39 I feel like to blog again! Well I am slowly starting to realize that I am going to fly to the philippines really soon! .. I can't believe that this is really true.. My uncle who is based in Jubail right now doesn't believe me that we, my kuya and I, are flying alone haha, he is convinced that my mom or my dad are coming with us ... tito, nope they are not! haha Anyways .. tick tock .. before I leave this beautiful country *haha* I have to enjoy everything that I don't have in the philippines. My own room, my queensize bed, my freedom, my laptop, internet, warm water, "fast" water, drinkable tap water, warm water, flush-toilets, clean public toilets, traffic lights, pedestrian lanes *haha*, TFC, internet, warm water, clean water, .... and WARM WATER! I know I know I know people would tell me to boil water, or live with the cold water. I don't have any other choices. I have to shower with super duper cold water. That will be an experienc...

The search is over .. ask and you'll be given =)

Hello Hello! time check: 10.13 pm Today was a great day :) .. Since I'm all set to fly to the Philippines soon - I know, all my blogs are related to my vacation and that only show HOW excited I am - I finally decided to get some extra pasalubongs. I was having second thoughts of getting my idols - yikes, sounds weird - a gift, since it is not sure if I can meet them. Haha, so I didn't know if I should prepare for the meeting or not. Well today, actually yesterday I made to a decision. I NEED TO FIND MUSICBOXES. Why? Because that's Nikki Gils favourite, she's collecting them. And the search had begun. I know that Vienna is well known for music, dirigents, violin and piano but I didn't know where I can get musicboxes. I found boxes and I saw music - CDs, but not 2in1. So yesterday evening I called up my cousin and asked her if she could come with me and look for a musicbox - she's not that kind of person who says "No" to me. Hehe, anyway so I googled, an...

impossible to have a fairy tale life

Little girls believe in fairy tales and a happily ever after, they idolise snowwhite, sleeping beauty and cinderella. As time flies by, these little girls are forced to stop to believe in that. People tell them to go back to reality, or think realistic. But ... What is wrong with believing in fairy tales? As long as you haven't experienced your own lovestory, perfect life fairy tales are the source of hope. It actually feels good to believe in that, it keeps your heart awake. In the movie " Cinderella Story ", Sam (Hillary Duff) told Austin (Chad Michael Murray) " waiting for you is like waiting for rain in the drought ..useless and dissappointing " Well the answer to that statement is .. have patience with your lovelife, career eerrr ...actually your entire life. At the end of day you'll realise that you have lived a perfect life. May it be only in your own eyes or in the eyes of others. Though Sam already broke Austins heart by saying that, but still thei...

Insomnia

"Feels like insomnia ah ah, Feels like insomnia ah ah Feels like insomnia ah ah, Feels like insomnia ah ah" it's 5.10 am. The sun is rising soon or at least show up for a few secs, my brother has to wake up and get ready for work and I am still awake. No plan to go to bed, I can hear my mom telling me to go to bed, even if she is already sleeping. When she finds out, I'll be one head shorter. Anyways I don't know why I am still awake and hyper and I can't help but keep on blogging about everything and anything. Btw. thank you to IyaVillaniaFans account on YouTube for this video. I actually like this version more than Craig Davids ;p .. Maybe I should be lying on my bed, maybe then my eyes decide to close and let me go to dreamland with closed eyes of course. No more daydreaming, not today hehe.

Countdown

Time check: it's 3.19 am, I'm not yet tired and I feel like to write and write and write and write. Tomorrow in a week I'll be on my way to see one of the 7,107 islands of the philippines. I am pretty much excited. My mom and I started buying some pasalubongs but we ended up not knowing whom to buy what. Haha! It's the first time my brother and I are travelling alone. It is also our first time to fly with Saudi Airlines. I hope we wont get lost in the airport and I hope they all do speak english. But I have the feeling that mostly all of the airport people are filipinos. I hope! 10 years ago my brother told the people in the philippines that he will be back .. well true he said that, noone though thought it would take 10 years for that "I'll see you again" moment. So this spontaneous vacation is already set and done. Now I am really praying for a good weather and great folks I'll be with. And a cool brother, who is ready for everything. The preparation...

Why should we read books ...

WHY? Definition : "A collection of sheets of paper, or similar material, blank, written, or printed, bound together; commonly, many folded and bound sheets containing continous printing or writing." Source: http://ardictionary.com/Book/6286 Well, that's true. It's a collection of sheets but what makes a book so special, important to some people, worth buying and reading ,rereading and recommending it to other people? Obviously it's the story, the content, that makes that book so interesting and worth reading. I actually hated reading books when I was in elementary and junior high school. The books I had to read were definitely not my favourites, well it's not the fault of the book. Reading hasn't been my cup of coffee.... That's what I thought when I was younger. I have so many books, from self-help to educational books and lovestory to a'lá CSI novels and a book filled with proverbs and quotes. MY first book, which I bought with my pocket money,...

essence of "bitin"

I think in life everything should be bitin... why? because when you meet someone and your bonding moment was too short, so called bitin sa oras, you are getting more excited for the next time you meet. You are super duper looking forward to the next time you can meet them again ... So I know my vacation this end of september will be bitin, but I am ALREADY curious and excited for the next time hihi! And speaking of bitin. Sometimes I want to turn back time because I made a rush decision, but then again... mistakes are there to learn from it.. Lesson learned - don't buy any expensive apple product ... nonetheless .. I love my ipod touch :) .. bow

running thoughts ...

Everytime I am not surrounded by the computer, tv or cellphone I come to thinking. This time I was thinking: How can you put the non-swimmer in real life? Yah, I know he can't swim. But why? Because he is afraid to drown. Well that's comparable to life. Once you jump into the pool, without knowing what is happening to you afterwards you'll come to realise that in 99 out of 100 cases there is someone who will save you from drowning. So take the risks in life : ) .. You don't know anything until you have experienced it on YOUR OWN. No risk, No fun ; ) There's a contradiction though ....

I guess this will be my online diary (=
