Love is not proud 
Love does not boast
Love after all 
Matters the most 

Love does not run
Love does not hide
Love does not keep
Locked inside 

Love is the river that flows through
Love never fails you

Love will sustain
Love will provide
Love will not cease
At the end of time 

Love will protect
Love always hopes
Love still believes
When you don’t 

Love is the arms that are holding you
Love never fails you


When my heart won’t make a sound
When I can’t turn back around
When the sky is falling down
Nothing is greater than this 
Greater than this

Love is right here
Love is alive
Love is the way
The truth the life

Love is the river than flows through
Love is the arms that are holding you
Love is the place you will fly to
Love never fails you

❤

Happy New Year!

Listed below are the things, lessons, petty solutions I learned this year. It, or rather they, might not resemble a relevance to you, but heck… this is my blog. J Nevertheless, it would be splendid if you guys can relate. BTW, I rather take the bullets than write long sluggish essays about some badum-badum stuffs about my life. J And also, credits to the people (books and movies) behind this list, YOU GUYS ARE NO LESS THAN AWESOME! :D

•       People come and go, you have to accept it.
•       A lot of people will eventually disappoint you and you have to forgive them for that.

•      Grades won’t define you! But study of course. :)

•      Remember the past, but don’t dwell on it too much. It would just make you sick.
•      Stand in what you believe in!
•      Do not concern yourself with commodity fetishism; it will just leave you more anxious and undoubtedly penniless.
•      Be original by being you!
•      Mahalin mo ang course mo dahil ikaw at piling mga nilalang lang ang nakakaintindi niyan.

•      You won’t know unless you try.
•      Bigyang hustisya ang hindi nakakapag-aral. Mag-aral ka! Magliwaliw ka pag hindi na magulang mo ang nagpapaaral sa’yo. Mami-miss mo rin yan pag nagtrabaho ka na. J
•      Learn when to say „Yes“ and when to say „No“
•      Stop behaving like such a grumpy old crow.
•      Always bring an umbrella with you.
•      If you think you could do something productive in just sitting in front of a computer for twelve hours, better gather your senses before ‘tis too late.

•      And lastly, learn how to love more and to trust in the Lord at all times.

Age?

Frozen on my seventeenth year. 

How are you feeling?

I feel zombified. I've been doing acad-ralated bumfs these past few days and it drained me, just like a leech sucking the blood out of me. 

What did you do last night?
I downloaded some e-books again. I updated my tumblr account coz I feel bad it might go ancient.
The last person to hug you?
My mum? And our head pastor (He is like a dad to me, to us all.) I felt relieved after that. Been wasted physically and mentally, their hugs are a comfort to me.
Favourite word?
Eternal and Love (favourite words)
Opinion on homosexuality?
Well, I am not comfortable being with lesbians/ bisexual-girls/girls-who-prefer-girls. But I have friends who are homosexuals, as in queers and gays. I love them. However, ... UGH. This is a very sensitive issue for me.

Family (My pride and  my support)

The last text you received?
Form a friend saying a simple good morning. But I bet it's a group message. :D
What makes you feel better when you’re upset?
When I pray and talk to God. He is such a good listener and a great strength-supplier.
What you look for in a guy/girl
I want to meet a guy who loves God more than he loves me. 
What  are you worried about at the moment?
Nothing serious. (Just thinking if I would be able to do my sister's collage without distorting/messing it up.)
What did you have for breakfast?
PANCIT CANTON. Little bro cooked it for me. (Sometimes he is just so sweet.)

Should I be honest? -.- Okay fine. Yeah, i guess. Once. You know, infatuation sucks. hahahaha
Countries you’ve been?
I've never been to any country (I don't have the luxury okay?) But in my dreams i've been traveling the world. :>

Irene (a college friend). I told her I only got 9 units during the 1st batchrun of online enlistment. :| I think my text goes like this  >> I only got 9 units! Blech. <<

Of course. I am loved that's why I ought to love. Wait. You mean romantically? I don't think so. :D
Who is your best friend?
God. (it may sound cliche but it's true. Better leave it this way.)

I live in a small but happy house. My church and my relatives are just around the corner so I am very pleased about it. 
How many hours of sleep did you get last night?
Five hours. 
The person you like?
Secret. :P (The last thing I have in mind is to put myself in a dire situation, so I better not spill it.)
Your opinion on dating your ex.
I have no experience to share. But if you want a general opinion, hmmm, askdhjakshskhksfksh! STOP FANTASIZING YOUR EX!! There's a reason why you didn't end up together. (No, I'm not mad.)
Ever kissed a stranger?
I am not a perv.

It's been a long time.

It has been more than a month since I posted something of worth in this blog. I've been such a bummer lately, sleeping late trying to bug myself with some school stuffs I obviously hate doing. So here I am, taking the opportunity to type my memories out on what happened to me during those hibernating times. And of course, this is in no particular order (as always). 


- I attended my friend's debut party. It was crazy, fun and not to mention very... musical. (boo the description. I know.) I saw friends and schoolmates I haven't seen for almost two years. I saw my crush back in highschool (I do hope he won't get to see this coz if he does, i'll be damned.). 


- I got to take 2 tablets of Kremil S in span of seven hours. (Just to say, antacids should be taken once a day ONLY. My poor stomach!). Blessed enough I didn't suffer from gastric irritation. However, I got hyped and all that very night that my friends concluded it was because of those antacids. Of course they're joking. :))


- I got a a grade of 2.0 on my major's midterms. I didn't get depressed, just regretful that I have always been careless when answering an exam. But I know I would be able to redeem myself on the finals!


- Mein Laptop war kaputt. Nasira yung laptop ko nung birthday ni Papa. I got so pissed I couldn't help but cry. huhuhuhu. My papers and projects are all there! My e-books! My movies! My ever beloved Minesweeper!  But I got guilty and felt remorse having to feel and think that way. I got so trivial once again and I did hate myself for that. I failed God that time. But I didn't dwell much on that fact. I gathered myself up and prayed afterwards, asking for His forgiveness that I became such a traveling cynic. 


Lesson learned: DO NOT PREOCCUPY YOURSELF WITH PETTY AND INCONSEQUENTIAL THINGS THAT WON'T DO ANYTHING BUT TO PISS YOU HARDCORE!


Well, well, well. This is it for know. I have other things to do. Goodbye!
