Idle Sunday

This was taken yesterday Sunday on the 26th of January 2014. We were on our way to church when Tifa and I took a little detour and decided to stop and grab a bite at 7 elevens. While we were finishing our grub, we decided to sit on the grassy field just beside our building and listened to the songs from the Disney movie Frozen (were that addicted).

As we sat there singing along with the songs, we can't help ourselves but to call the attention of the passing jeepneys. Much to our disappointment since none of them dared to stop and wait for us (I mean who would?considering our circumstances. Hoeee!)

Enough of us being a lazy bum. It's finally time to go to our destination and since we let a LOT of jeepneys (Transport!!!don't be mean to us T-T) pass us by. Chance! we took our sweet little time (again) to wait and take pictures. Oh yeah!

My second outfit post. Tifa-chan call it "Emo". I don't know what to think. What about you?

Out from Work

I wouldn't be doing this since it is not my forte BUT a certain person told me it wouldn't hurt if I try. I was willing to do it when a sudden realization hit me. I forgot one important thing ---my camera. How sad is that? I gave up the idea and just thought of doing it next time.

I decided to go home with a friend since we haven't got the time to hang out lately and what do you know? It occurred to me that my friend, by the name of Steph a.k.a Tifa-chan (as I prefer to call her) has a cellphone, which she often use to take some pictures of me every now and then (you'll see what I mean).

I Have Now...EARS!

Judging from this picture, I guess a lot of you would have known by now that it was taken a long time ago, Like last year perhaps? Though, I still consider this post new. Yes, it is and No, no questions. Checking and editing some of your posts can be indeed tiring and fortunate, if I may add, for I stumble upon on this. I totally have forgotten (face palms) this has been in my drafts for ----a  very long time (I am one forgetful person).

Anyways, It has been one of my fantasies to see myself having ears. (I know, I know its a bit petty. But aren't we all?) And due to some event, that fantasy of mine came true (whew! it almost didn't). I, made myself a pair of ears ( Yep, you heard that right. My ears are MADE not bought.) It was quite fun making those and to perfectly honest. I didn't even know if I'm doing it right. All I know is that I have to finish making it before the end of the night. (That was such a rush). 

Well, what do you know? I managed to do it and viola! I have my own CAT ears. ( Many people thought that it is a mouse ears but It's cat ears. C-A-T --cat.>.<)  These are cat ears I tell you. 

Anywho, here is a fantasy-come-true.

Guess who's this?

A Sort Of Tribute

I was searching through my files when I came across this cute picture. Hence forth, coming up with this post. 

My colleague (you know who you are ) once sent this picture to me when she found out how bookish I am.

The first time I laid my eyes on the said picture, a really huge grin appeared on my face. Literally.

Anywho, according to her, she pictured me to be like this every time I got a new book. 

And you know what the amazing thing is? 

It so happens to be true.

Am I weird or what?

This is sort of a little tribute to the person who sent this to me. ;)

Ms. Steph, Thank you!

I sure did keep this and will continue to keep it.

Forever.

Looking Back

"Life is like an old photograph once captured it will never cease looking back at you."

......

There are times in our lives where we look back to the things that had already happened. It could be anything or specific. It could be our saddest memories or the happiest ones. And let's face it, most of us prefer not to remember the sad part. Trust me, I know. I'm one of the few.

Some of us may still wonder why it happened to us when it could happen to anybody. But why us? Sometimes the answer is right there in front us and what do we do? We pretended to be blind and not see.

Obstacles, challenges, trials----They're always there just waiting when to strike. I'm saying this in order for us to open our eyes and to NOT pretend we don't see.

Without having to face those we wouldn't be here and we wouldn't still be standing. A trial is given to us because he knows we can face it. It's our choice how to face it and how to take it. Stumbling and falling down are one of the things that we tend to encounter every now and then. Yet, amidst our trials and point of breaking down we stood up shaking knees and covered with bruises. Why? because it's our choice. Because we  believe we can do it.

......

In each step we take is a choice we make.

......

Life, is never an easy route to take. It's an adventure. Life, is never a fast forward kind of play, but taking things one step at a time.  Life may be considered short but it is long enough for us to live.

I have come to learned these things as I stumble and fall countless of times. And each time, I stand up and face it. My fears, my weaknesses, my flaws and my strength. And if ever you, yourself can't hold on anymore don't worry nobody is alone. That's why we have family and friends. To reach a helping hand, to wipe our tears and be there when we need them.

......

Acceptance is they key.

Believing in your self is a start.

Having faith is the answer.

......

Looking back at those times, I may still feel and remember the pain that I have once been through, but despite all of that, a curve slowly begins to show up on my face. I realized life can be perfect in an imperfect way. It can be possible in some impossible way. It is a treasure that we must appreciate.

It is not so bad to reminisce once in awhile and when you do, you'll end up  smiling and shaking your head when you remember those moments .

 Promise me you'll remember:

" You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think"

A Kiss In Time

" Only love can break the curse"

......

Once upon a time, there was a beautiful princess with golden hair. She could have anything she desires. When she was bout a child she remembered they were not allowed to utter the word "spindle" and even the whole kingdom was banned for having a spindle.

Hence, the princess didn't know what it is. As she was gifted with beauty, grace, musical talent and intelligence by the good ole fairies. The princess was a spoiled brat. She was used to getting her way.

Concerned by her actions, the king and queen were worried about her. Especially when a certain witch cast a spell on their dearly beloved - spoiled- princess.

" Before she reached her sixteenth birthday. She will prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and the kingdom will fall into a deep sleep and will fade away deep from the forest away from the view."

So, what happens when the princess disobeyed and didn't heed the warning?

The entire Kingdom fell into a deep sleep.

......

In a hundred years passed, the princess woke up from her slumber with a kiss.  The entire kingdom was finally awake.

What turns out to be a happy beginning becomes a disaster when they find out that torches are now replaced with flashlights? The carriages are now cars ? not to mention you can call and hear other peoples voice  through the means of a mobile phone? Blaming the princess for her disobedience, the outraged King banished the princess.

In the strange new land, the princess was exiled along with her so-called- prince, who was also on his own struggle of running away from what his parents want him to be and following his dreams .

One was running away.

The other was trying to escape.

Would they help each other out?

More importantly..Is he her true love?

......

In this retelling story of "Sleeping Beauty" here's another twist that are all set in the modern era.

Kiss the Rain

Sometimes the weather has a strong influence over us. It affects our mood drastically. From being bright as sunny to being gloomy like the dark clouds.

Even so, we can't change the fact that no matter how bad or good the weather is there's still beauty in it. Like the rain for example.  I love watching the rain.  I love how the way it drops  and its smell as it finally hit the ground. Even though Christmas was just around the corner, it didn't stopped the rain to pour down every now and then.

There are moments like these that we must treasure. The beauty of nature and its wonders. We should appreciate it every now and then. Cause who knows, we might realize one day that all of it will be lost and for us, we won't know its true value may it be a thing or a person until its gone.

Before its too late appreciate what you can see, hear, smell, taste and feel.

In my case,  Kiss the Rain.

Live Life.

Love Life.

Beastly

"Love is never ugly"

......

Who said that love can only exist between two good looking people?

Who said that you can have love only if you're rich?

Who said that you can sell love?

Who said that you can buy love?

These are some of the questions we came acroos every now and then. So, let's add another one. 

Do you believe in witches? In magic? How about true love?

Hmmm...does it sound too familiar? If not, then let me give you a sneak peak of a story. A story, about a boy who does not know what love really is and a simple girl.

......

In New York City, lives Kyle Kingsbury. A boy who has the looks, the money and even the fame. But, looks can be deceiving. Looks isn't everything. On the outside, he is tall, blonde, rich. Most school girls were after him, but, on the inside he's rotten. He does a lot of mean things to people he calls "ugly". Kyle Kingsbury has it all. He rules the school. He's confident. He thinks he is so perfect. He thinks everything can be solved with good looks and money. Or so he thought...

"Never mess with a girl" that's what they say,and yet, Kyle ignores the warning. How about "Never mess with a witch?" who are you kidding right? In the 21st century, witches no longer exist. Or so he thought. Again. He was warned once not to make things so easy for her. He laughed it off. She gave him a chance. He let it go. So now, she gave him---comeupance.

"You are ugly now, on the inside, where it matters most. You are a beastly."

He has two years to break the curse.

He has two years to find true love.

To love him for what he is.

To love him for who he is.

But...

Who could ever love a...beast?

......

This is the story of a modern day fairy tale of "Beauty and the Beast".
