Never Home

No comments

It's 2 AM and instead of sleeping, I have decided to update this once again, long and forgotten blog. I took this photo at 3 AM in the morning last June when I desperately went out at that hour to have our thesis printed for a supposedly presentation the next day. I do not know why but this is my favorite shot from that time until now. It also somehow relates to my current favorite song which is Never Home by Mirror Days in ways I do not know how. Well maybe because it is a sad song and this picture has also the same feels.  

So much for the intro.. 

I am currently on my 8th yr 1st sem in UPCD. I started the sem with a lot of hope that I will finally be graduating in 2 months or so. But here I am still struggling at the end of the semester fighting my way out. I am near the finish line but also the time is nearing its end. I am scared for the coming days because it will be the make it or break it days. I hope I can make it. I hope we can make it. I want to already move on to the better next chapters of my life. 

I am praying and praying and praying. Dear God, I hope this time is my time.

1 AM Thoughts

No comments

Too many things happened in the previous months i was MIA.. The sadness i was in during the days of CD exam.. How a person motivated me for awhile but last straw happened.. Happy for that person to find a person because I cannot be that person.. Cemented my 2 FPD cases which what really motivated me until the end of semester.. Pain in the ass patients.. Super scared with the professor who had bad blood with me.. Thankful for understanding and helpful family and friends.. Learning to be on track again when there's just too many road bumps along the way.. Music! Super thankful for the existence of music.. Seeing another person accidentally for the second time.. Did not bother and moved on with my life..  A much needed Holy Week break.. A birthday gift phone from my dad.. Going to school before 8 for the first time in years.. Snapchat.. Giving up then rising again.. Thesis.. late night thesis.. Toys.. Sickness.. My super cute cousin Baste bringing joy to everyone.. Hope.. Wishful thinking.. Faith.. Another sem to go.. Friends who commit.. Overthinking skill.. Priorities..

someday things will be different

No comments


I'm now 24 and nothing that I've planned since I was a child has happened academically-wise. It seems like no matter how much effort I put in, it won't be worth it because in the end, I always get what I don't deserve and always end up expecting for nothing. It has always been that way. 

Although I am not a coward type of person, I am however, a pessimist. I always been have low self-esteem and self-confidence. I don't trust myself and I don't trust that circumstances would go my way. I always needed a support because I don't trust myself that I can do it. I easily get frustrated and lose my patience and end up wanting to quit.

Well, I actually feel coward now that I feel that nothing is going right. I am now hating myself for not being good enough. 

So right now, I am currently too sad and crying out of frustration and pressure from my CD exam. I've been doing the exam for already 11 days which is too long already! I am too scared to fail because a lot of time and effort have been put on it. 

I just want to graduate already and feel that finally after all these hardworks academically-wise in my life all will be worth it and pay off. This feeling of being stuck is just so sad knowing that you can be good if you had the chance to be put into other life situations. I wonder how many more tears would it take for me until I graduate.

I am posting this not because I am sad with my life but because i know someday things will be the opposite of my condition now. And when that happens, every struggle will just be a memory I can look back on and know that without these struggles I wouldn't be that person.

Grateful Board # 3

No comments
Because grateful boards are much needed at times like this when everything in clinics aka my life is giving me more detours and bumpy roads..

1. God knows how thankful I am with everything that I have and I do not need to explain this to people who cannot see it.
2. Clinics - will it matter 5 years from now? No. Because it is ending soon.
3. I can never be confident so I guess my feet's always on the ground.
4. Sometimes, things don't go your way but what if this is the right way?
5. Everything is a lesson and an experience. My life's never boring.

Grateful Board #2

No comments
Gratitude eliminates negativity, disappointment, resentment, and anger. And when those emotions disappear, room is made for the energy of love for God, for life, and for yourself to reappear, now more fully than ever. —  Neale Donald Walsch
1. Even if i have an ungrateful patient, i know he will come for me everyday until i finished my requirement.
2. Being positive even if the situation requires you not to be.
3. Little steps toward the main goal is progress!
4. Soon it will be my time.
5. My family will always be there for me no matter how bitchy, crazy and stupid i become.

Have you ever felt like you already used up all your luck?

No comments

I am guilty of this. I sometimes feel like I already used up all my luck when things don't go my way: when I experience bumps and humps along the way, when scenarios i could pass easily turns the other way around, when supposedly easy things won't come easy, when what you thought was already yours ended up taken away from you, when you end up failing on what you used to be good at. Because most of the time, even if you've given your all, things will still just not go the way you plan. And it sucks and frustrating!

I think that luck is the secret ingredient to the things you are pursuing to do. It's like the secret signal of the universe when it is blessing you in your endeavors.

Here I am wishing that I haven't used it all up for my little wishes before because I'm gonna be needing it badly today and in the future.

I am trying my best not to make a big deal of my birthday this year. I am the type of person who overthinks and plans ahead to make my birthday special. But not this year. Why make a fuzz of making it special when in fact it is already a special day. I had no time to have my eyebrows threaded in time for my birthday which is the only thing i wanted. But okay, whatever, it will do. I refused also to buy a customized cake because i don't know. One thing's for sure, my heart's only desire for my birthday is to already graduate. That's all i wanted right now. 

I already celebrated my birthday with my relatives today (Feb 13) at Hagonoy whom I love the most. There are no pictures and whatsoever to post it online. I am just happy that I celebrated it with them. I don't know what's gonna happen tomorrow. My plan of celebrating it with my college classmates/friends is still a drawing. 

This year, my first greeter is Mae! My college friend and one of the best buds. I don't know why but 1st greeters do matter to me hehe. I am actually scared because aside from it being your birthday, people tend to embarass you by their posts and messages on facebook. Apparently, my brother already posted a sleeping picture of me for the world to see omaygadd!! There's definitely more to come, knowing my friends crazy behaviors. LOL. 

I am now 24 and getting there (to where it might be). Thank You, Lord, for all those happy, wonderful and crazy years. I hope I get to live until old age while being happy all the time even though there are road bumps along the way because that's what matters.

Grateful Board #1

No comments

Not sure where i encountered this Grateful board thing.. Princess Diaries or from other books, i do not remember. I read somewhere that it's healthy to be grateful. Anyway, here are the things I am grateful for today:
1. Even if my FPD patient cancelled on me this afternoon it was okay because in the afternoon I suddenly got dysmenorrhea that I almost pass out. So I went home immediately and rest.
2. My flap patient got deferred due to medical condition but at least she will be back to have her canine extracted by me. It's better to be sure. I don't want to harm any of my patients.
3. I was able to contact FPD single posterior bridge patient after being MIA for weeks! I have been trying to contact her since last last week but fail. I almost gave up, but i suddenly had the urge to call her again tonight. Really really thankful that she still wants to have the treatment done by me.
4. I did general cleaning in the condo.
5. Our thesis moves slow but still.. One PDA Chapter replied to our request. I hope we get to fix everything in time.

Update

No comments

This post is in reference to my post last December 2011 Current
I want to meet someone new. I am not a friendly person
I want to talk to someone I don't personally know. I am afraid of talking to someone I don't know personally.
I want to meet my special someone soon. I don't meet new people regularly.
I want to fall in love. I want to be loved.  
..Fast forward to the last quarter of 2014 when i experienced these all. Well not sure about that last line though. 

Thanks to Tinder I get to check this want-list from 2011. HAHA. I used to be shy admitting that I once used that online dating app. But whatever I guess people will be open with it or has already been open using and talking about it. What's wrong with meeting people online? I mean it's up to you at least if you're meeting that person in real life. Thanks to tinder I've experienced a lot of new things! Something that won't happen to me I guess with my boring environment lol. OMG it feels like I am promoting tinder but really not hahaha!

There was this one stranger that I met that added craziness to my already crazy life. Apparently, after all those late night talks, playlists making and coffee "dates" we had, we ended up back to being strangers again. He made me extremely happy and extremely sad at the same time. I've moved on and I am just laughing about it. After all those bittersweet memories, I am still glad it happened. Everything happened really fast but I know it was real (or not?). Maybe it wasn't meant to be but of course I can't deny the feeling of hoping that it would last. 

There was this another stranger/friend that i do not want to really mention because I am really not completely over him. LOL. I feel stupid! I mean how can you be attached to someone you haven't met? Right?! I must be really crazy. I guess a year is already an enough time to tell you that someone isn't into you.. /wrist

It's already February aka Love Month. Thank God there's no pressure on my part every Valentine's Day because what the hell, for me it's my birthday not Valentine's LOL. I am happy to celebrate my birthday with anyone on that day. It's actually ironic that I am born on that day but I never had a boyfriend since birth LOL. Whatever. I know it's gonna happen someday. At the right time. Because timing is everything.

On Faith

No comments
The Centerpiece Sculpture of the Crucified and Risen Christ of the Church of the Holy Sacrifice by Napoleon Abueva
I think that faith is your personal relationship with God/Jesus/Allah/Yahweh/etc. Nevertheless, it is something that should not be taught nor something to brag about. I mean, just like any other relationship, you build it, you cherish it, and you keep it. 
So I really hate it whenever people lecture about faith: how faith should be done and how their way of faith is the right faith. People do not have the right to question other people's faith. Just because they are not open about it doesn't mean that they do not have one. Bragging about what you do with your faith does not make you a better person. It doesn't make you a righteous person either. 
Respect. Everyone needs to respect other people's faith.

Fuck Dent!

No comments
I sometimes feel like I am good at running away from my problems. I sometimes feel like I just do random things that could make me happy because I am sad inside. I sometimes make myself believe that I'm happy and that everything shall pass. But is this the right thing? Everyone deserves to be happy right?
Fuck dent! I am so going out of this hell this year! And someday all of these will just be a nightmare that has finally ended.

Life is too short to have a boring hair

No comments
I wasn't blessed with a beautiful hair. I had a straight beautiful hair as a child but everything changed when i hit puberty. It turned into this curly, dry and light hair which made it difficult to manage. So as growing up, my mom has forced me to have it straightened. I hated it so much before because i do not care how my hair looked. You can describe me as Manang during my teenage years lol. My titas would even persuade me a lot to have my hair colored and whatsnot. 
I was a boring person before lol. My dream hairstyles were only short bob or short pixie cut. I do not know what happened but in the past 6 years in college, the world must have turned upside down. I would go for different hairstyles to extreme hairstyles actually!
I had an undercut. Yes! and i super freakin love it! My ultimate inspiration for having this undercut is Dara of 2NE1. It really looked super good on her and as I believe it will also look good on me. Buti nalang tama ako hahaha! 
I would love to have an undercut again! Even if my mom does not approve. :| 
P.S. I swear wala akong pinagdadaanan kaya ako nagpaganto LOL
I got addicted into dyeing my hair this year! I was trying to achieve a granny hair but have failed a lot of times! because the gray hair color won't react to my hair. :((
I always just end up bleaching my hair into lighter blonde just so i hoped that the gray color will take effect on my hair. And it was all hopes. 
My mom did the bleaching and dyeing of my hair. I got addicted so much of wanting to achieve that granny hair that I ended up bleaching and dyeing my hair almost every 2 weeks before. huhu kawawa ang aking buhok, i know! To prevent it from total damage, I shampoo it once a week and use conditioner the rest of the days. I also try to hot oil it once a week. It is not as dead as how it looked i swear. I wouldn't play with my hair anymore if it is.
On the plus side of bleaching my hair, i can now dye it with different colors.. Like my favorite color, BLUE
I also envy my blue hair even if it's mine. LOL. I somehow achieve the granny hair 'coz when this blue hair fades it turns to gray! yay :D
I am currently satisfied with my blue hair. yaaaay! My future plans for my hair is to not bleach it again, just dye it with whatever i want until my hair is long enough to cut the bleached part. Sadly, I wouldn't be able to have it straightened until all the bleach portion is removed. So there, I guess i'll never have regrets when i get old concerning my hair because i did a lot of experimenting with it. :>
