A Splendor and A Celebrator

I can't say exactly. But apparently I'm traveling in time. Backwards. I'm looking at the last 2 years in college. I stepped back, rethink each paces I took, unwritten the pages of my notebook, browse the notes from the end to beginning, and the result: I met someone from the past. My past. A vague past yet worth traveling for again and again.

Worth smiling for.

And this past is being relived now.

May is the new "celebration":

7 years and counting, my dearest friends! How cool is that?!

Of course, my birthday will not be complete with out the Epic Proportions!

Hindi na uso ang maraming handa. Basta masaya ka, ok na 'yun!

With the newest people around my quiet and loud life!

with the party animals! :)

Describe the month of May in one word: Legendary.

I realize that...

...you can't always get what you want. But if you try, you might get what you need.
...the greatest revenge is to be happy.
...that if you end something, end it with a period, not with
an exclamation point or more periods or a question mark.
...learn from the past and share these to whom you are with.
...that we may pretend everyday as long as we keep the truth to ourselves.
...that it's okay to be ugly as long as you looked neat, clean and presentable.
...that it's easier to make other people feel happy about themselves.

Recuperation mode: On (and loving each day of it!)

I am officially not dating anyone as I speak. And I am not going to pen down here about the bad.. err.. the worst things my heart had endured the past few weeks. It was hell. Yet at the end of the day, I still need to work on our papers, pay the bills, talk to sensible people, meet new people, go to the grocery, eat, sleep, shit and piss.

While the sun busy hitting us hard with his scorch-ness and god-forsaken heat, mr.rain was seen blowing out the thing he's good at. It was not enough yet it's good to know that rain is still coming even the phenomenon called El Nino's predicted to be on us until June.

Recuperating mode is pricey yet fun and qualitative. It gives you a sense of urgency to love yourself more each day and be with everyone that matters to you most. Here are the things I did that I hope you miserable and bitter romantics out there might help you to recuperate from an ugly breakup or a senseless kinship with someone you loved.

Learn new things! This was the first time I learned how to play dance dance revo!

Read exciting books! Either new or old.

Be with friends and sing your heart out loud in full force!

Make someone happy on their Birthday. Reconcile. Re-learn with them.

Be with someone that could understand the hurting heart and acknowledge the pains, the breaks and the divine feeling of self-preservation.

Rekindle your long lost favorite sport with a friend or two!

Discover new places to dine! (This was from Goodles in Galleria)

Feed the Feline! Or any pet you have at home! Give attention to the lesser things you encounter everyday.

And smile if you feel like frowning!

This week, I also:

-visited our sick brother/band mate in Polymed yesterday.
-asked the silliest questions through SMS
-planning an anniversary dinner
-listened to Papa Jack on radio
-listed down the personalities I will vote on Monday
-felt sorry to a friend who lost her two cute turtles
-watched a dozen DVD's
-had been treated by a High School buddy to watch Iron Man 2 with our band mate
-slept earlier than before

it only shows that being with people you trust and gained a certain amount of confidence with is a fascinating way and rewarding experience to recuperate. Besides, it's not everyday that someone breaks your heart. Hence being with them is an adventure to look forward to. :)

Go out of the box, will you! Sabi nga sa isang kanta, "The world is our playground and it will always be our home."
