You can't see me. For now.


Yesterday was one of the nth times I cried because of some romantic stuffs my bestfriend, Amery and I shared together.

After doing an interview for my success story, we headed to Dairymoor coffee shop where we stayed the whole time. We shared so many ridiculous stories, of course, that are really expected. I guess, this how we'll always be. More like sisters. Bestfriends in all times, in all things.

Things never get old every time we see each other. We still laugh about the silliest things we did in highschool and cry about the things that has left mark in our minds and has touched our hearts. We hope together about the things which, for others are impossible. We still wait even if there's nothing to be waited for. We pray for the right guy if not the knight-in-shining-armor other girls dream for. We don't need fairytales. We just need a REAL one.

Tears started falling from our eyes when I began reading aloud about a marriage proposal on Yahoo answers. There's this girl who keeps on hoping that her boyfriend would propose to her. She waited for too long and still wishing for it, only to end up in false hopes and just decided to stop dreaming. Until one day, she and her boyfriend stayed at a park and watched the sun set. She suddenly looked up in the sky and saw a plane write out "WILL YOU MARRY ME?" in bold letters. She thought to herself that whoever that girl is, she's so lucky. Then her boyfriend stood up and knelt down on one knee, got a small box from his pocket, opened it and asked her "Will you marry me?". Then she said "Yes" in tears.

Sweet. I've been hoping to find Mr. Right but so far has not had any luck. But I believe that sometimes, things come in an unexpected way. It might be better than what I've been wishing for. He might be better than what I've been longing for. Or maybe he's just near and may not even like him because I'm still finding out who I am. In my 19 years of existence, I'm sure, there will be another 19 years of good and bad things to happen but for sure, will enhance the rest of my life. I should not worry, I should not think of living life alone. It scares me like what my bestfriend feels. Or maybe, when I'm 60, that's when I should start complaining. (Haha). It really gets frustrating but I gotta be patient.

Look for different places instead of the wrong places and eventually, I know, I'll find him.

I firmly believe in reason, season and lifetime. I know, he's just right there. He may be blogging his feelings too like what I'm doing right now. He may also be wishing for me to come his way and share things like what lovers do. Like what he sees in movies, like what he reads in books, like what his own idea of love. He may be looking for me all the time and wants to share with me the love he's been keeping inside. He may be looking for me, the one who's worthy of his than the failed one he had in the past. He may be longing for me and do the cute surprises and romantic ideas he has in mind. He may also be day dreaming that I'm beside him and walking hand by hand with him. Cute.

So. I'm looking from this day forward. :)
Okay. I'm starting to be a sucker for love again. Ktnxbye. See you. You.

Randomly

Long Weekend.


When I started reading my News Feed an hour ago, I noticed that most are looking forward to the long weekend. Some would prefer to spend it by the beach, some marked the dates for a movie marathon and most of them will have quality time with their family. Honestly, I want to hang-out on the long weekend but it seems that it will be normal days for me. I texted my brother and cousins with my date plans but I got no reply, or maybe they have their own lakads.


I then realized stuffs about school.


It seems that one day is not enough to accomplish everything at hand. Things are becoming serious now. I feel the pressure about school works and final exams just when my roommate reminded us that, it's already 'BER' month after this week. Wow! Enough about the 'petiks' and 'bahala na' days for me.


There are so many things to be productive for.
But, 'Iniisip ko pa lang, tinatamad na ko.'




Lunch Date.






Chicken Gratini


My friend and I had our lunch at RedCinnamon located in front of our dormitory. We tried one of their specialities, the Chicken Gratini. It is chicken breast with creamy sauce and cheese, garnished with vegetables on the side (plus free red tea and soup).


While waiting for the food to be served, we talked about the random things that happened like that girl who annoys us every time we see her. I don't know why we see that girl through something that pisses us off. It's not like we're mean or something but it just happens. It's like an automatic response that we can actually explain.


Signs.


We then remembered the sign seeking thingy we made after watching "Sign Seeker" starring John Lloyd Cruz. It's one of the entry in Nestle's Short Film Anthology


On the film, John Lloyd was hesitant to check this girl out who happens to be his officemate. He keeps on asking for signs if he will pursue his hot and pretty officemate played by Solenn Heusaff.


We made our own version of this.


Carmela, one of my roommates asked for signs.
Goal is: she will meet again the guy she likes.



  • Sa Dapitan, kapag tuloy-tuloy na naglakad sa kalsada papuntang UST.
  • Inalok ng candy ng kaklase.
  • Kinausap ng kaklaseng hindi masyadong ka-close o kausap.


That day, everything on the list happened. Signs somehow work.

Milky also joined our Sign Seeking thing.
Here's the screen shot at the back of her hand-out.





  • Kapag sumalubong ng ngiti sa elevator.
  • Kapag nakapulot ng barya.
  • Kapag biglang umulan at kasama niya yun taong gusto niya.

Fortunately, no. 1 and no. 2 already happened and still waiting for the 3rd to finally complete all the signs before September 15 which is hopefully-the-Big-day for her. 

However, sign-seeking is for fun. We should not merely depend everything in signs. What we actually wish for will be obtained if there's faith, trust and patience to wait. It's not something to expect with guarantee that things will be on our favor because it could always go either way regardless of what we believe and who we worship. It's still in God's plan.

If number 1, 2 and 3 work, if he and she meet again, or if he and she fall in love with each other, God planned for it.
