if you have the urge to forgive what he has done..then do it. but if you don’t feel like it, then don’t. it’s really all up to you. Now, about the “forgetting” part, you WILL forget about it..that’s a fact. I just don’t know how long it would take you to. There’s a lot of things you can do to forget people, number one will be hitting them on the face. :D haha!
Drink of the now: Ice Cold Horchata.
This very moment is my first and last drink of this weird tasting beverage.
If you fancy some “palitaw” (a Filipino delicacy) but you are too stubborn to chew, this is the drink for you. a.k.a Palitaw in liquid form.

It’s been ages since I last logged on to this. And yes, I have been busy. And also yes, I have been mostly jotting everything all up in my field notes and not typing it all down here. As if anybody cares, anyhoo.
As of today, I have done lame attempts as to where I can look up someone to whom I can be penpals with. Why? Mostly for a number of reasons:
1. Learn what you can and practice what you already know.
To learn is endless. There’s just so many things that the world has to offer and my world doesn’t just end in the four corners of my room or the household I am in nor the place I work. It is limitless. There are so many facts, so many interesting things all over the world that I still need to explore. Like, peoples lifestyle, culture and whatnots. I just gotta have to find that out first hand through the locals who actually live there.
2. Meet new people.
Trying to put yourself out there and actually meeting someone new whether be it in person, through phone or the internet, makes you a little more confident than you were before. “A world without strangers”. That’s gonna be hard to do…might as well start now.
And lastly, it is mainly because…
3. I want to receive a letter, a book, or whatever via “snail” mail that has got nothing to do with bills inside a white envelope.
I just want things to kick it all back old school. To go back when vinyl records are their ultimate ipods, when books are their to go to than Google, when people actually meet-up to talk rather than using skype, YM or facebook ,and to go back to that time where texts, phone calls and emails always arrive at your doorstep as a form of letter, a package or even a singing telegram. I just want to be all giddy and wait for a package or a letter to arrive. To have that feeling of excitement…something good to look forward to.
Today, everything’s all fast paced. People doesn’t even know how to wait anymore. It’s like if they try to wait for about 30 minutes, their impatience is gonna eat them out alive! Results, results, results…as soon as possible. Everybody wants everything to be all instantly accessible for them.
I just don’t like the thought of it that much and I badly want something from my mail SOON! :(
Plyometrics, according to Wikipedia:
Plyometrics (also known as “plyos”) is a type of exercise training designed to produce fast, powerful movements, and improve the functions of the nervous system, generally for the purpose of improving performance in sports. Plyometric movements, in which a muscle is loaded and then contracted in rapid sequence, use the strength, elasticity and innervation of muscle and surrounding tissues to jump higher, run faster, throw farther, or hit harder, depending on the desired training goal. Plyometrics is used to increase the speed or force of muscular contractions, providing explosiveness for a variety of sport-specific activities.
It’s a 40+ minute workout and I watched the first ten minutes of it after yesterday’s Fit Test (in which I did really badly =/). It’s basically non-stop cardio and you go faster and faster and faster with each ~set. I didn’t even stick around to see what the rest of the workout is like.
You’re going to have to peel me off the floor tonight.
Holy crap! Insanity Workout will literally make you INSANE! We applied this program to our Rowing Team..at first we were like owkaaay, but come third set of level fucken one, I find myself cursing those cigarettes for my weak lungs. Ghademmet! It ate all the oxygen out of me. And so, the next day, I was completely immobilized and ditched work for a full bedrest at home. We can do THIS. :)

This is what I made for my Lolo during his Eulogy at the Sacred Heart Church, Cebu City.
As the eldest grandchild, love and affection from my grandparents was never been an issue. I have always had the privilege to visit Lolo Cebu and Lola Cebu -as we fondly call them - every year since I was born until I started studying. As I grew older, Lolo Cebu and I began to communicate about simple but meaningful things to me like jazz music, simplicity of life, books that somewhat touched his life, lessons and learning. Amazingly, it melts my heart to realize that a grandfather can say all these things to me. I felt very lucky to have someone like him during my growing years.
Remembering him isn’t hard to do even if I don’t see him. The smell of cigarettes and the aroma of a brewed coffee reminds me of a jolly, witty and knowledgeable man back here in Mabolo.
But last Saturday was quite different. The jolly, talkative and outspoken Lolo Cebu that I knew and saw the last time was helplessly lying on the hospital bed - sad to say, already on coma. I was teary-eyed upon seeing his situation because previous to this incident, we already planned to surprise him by coming over on Holy week to spend those days with him. Furthermore, I was going to surprise him by telling him personally that I am going to surely graduate Nursing this April. I find it ironic because instead of telling him this, I already found myself showing it to him. I was a different feeling, I found out. It was not easy to take care of someone you dearly love in such a state. Somehow I know Lolo Cebu appreciated this short bonding we had in the hospital before his life was taken away from us.
Lolo Cebu, as I say farewell to you now, I will always cherish the moments we shared together, the teachings I learned from you and the love you gave me beyond boundaries. Death, has separated us from you but I know that the Lord welcomes you, more that ever, in his place better than home.
Iloveyou, Lolo..it has been more than a pleasure being your granddaughter.

personal death eulogy don't say goodbye say farewell
I am officially an irresponsible tumblr user.
I’ve been out of this world (tumblr) for the past 2 or 3 weeks. Though I have posts, it’s all mostly reblogs or other shit that i haven’t thought of. I’m officially too tamad to function or even simply type. Darn.
Soo, 2 weeks ago I went to Cebu with my fambam cuhhs my Lolo had a stroke and eventually went into cardiac arrest. When he was revived by the medical team, he instantly went into coma. The Saturday that I flew in from Manila to Cebu, I took care of my Lolo for 2 days and the family decided to extubate him cuhhs he was practically braindead and was only held alive by the respirator. Last week was freakkin’ stressful cuhhs me, dad and mom were all hands-on with all the funeral thing and whatnots of cremation. So there. Afterwhich, I flew back to Manila last Sunday.
After 2 days, the fambam got tickets again for Cebu (months before, dad and i were planning already to surprise my Lolo and spend Holy Week with him..so everything was technically paid for prior to the first trip) and stayed a day at our house in Mabolo. THEN….this is where the FUN starts…hotel rooms, foreigners, beach,FUCKEN BUFFET, white sand and a good music. Nothing can spoil my week..well, so far.
CEBU is LOVE..without a doubt. I miss my childhood summer’s and everyday trips to the beach. Living here is another question that I have in mind right nao.
you know i miss you more..please please, a night out. let’s update and have fun!
