Affection

June 13,2012

Everything has ended right away. It was like a dream that after waking up, the story has ended also. It was like a movie without part-2 , that left you wondering what's the next story. Its like prowling outside but didn't really actively looking for something. The truth is, your mind wanders somewhere far away. Then sadness creeps in, bitterness started to control you, "move on" seems the hardest words you ever heard. The moment you started begging for that something, was the moment you petty yourself. It was an inconsolable time, perplex mind was its peak. Your working but end up procrastinating. Everyday was a bummer, crabby attitude was evident. Have you ever wonder how expressive of sorrow your life is?

But at the end of the day you still can say, " Happy to someone who have built extensions to my boat and have made marks in my heart." Then  RESILIENCY become your favorite word and liked so much the Buddhist proverb, "The lotus blooms most beautifully from the deepest and thickest mud."

The Bible became your favorite book, you meant it as a bread for daily used, and so it was. Day and night you spend time reading and understanding it. You've found out that the word of God answers what you keep praying on. That in His words and presence you've find peace and strength. "Heaven and earth shall passed away but my words remain forever." Then on you relent on forgiveness, you've learn to let go, you've learned humility. Someone then asked you, " How did you find peace?" You answered, " You've got to let go of the stuff- because it just doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is what you choose to be now." -from watching Kung Fu Panda =) But the real thing is this, you've learned a striking Bible Verses during you Sunday School. 

John 16:33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world. 

Psalm 34:4 I sought the Lord, and He heard me and delivered me from all my fears. 

"You cannot changed the cards that was given to you, only the way you deal with them." If God allows you with circumstances still, give thanks! Pretty sure with the help of God's grace, you will overcome it and end victorious. God Bless you all!

February

 February  , 2012

Its already February dolls! It started few days back ^.^ the "red" month where all may turn color red on the eyes of an in love! :) sounds really corny but that would be very true to an emotional individual like me LOL! hey! I'm not telling you I'm in love but that falls on reality sweetie ^.^ I think the boyfriends already planning where to date and treat their girlfriends. I'm talking here in general dolls, its not necessary that only couples has the right to celebrate and be happy with that day! hahaha I'm not bitter but loving someone does not talk only on opposite sex or same sex O-O but also with your family and friends of course, the most important individuals. :) Being curious on Valentines Day I was thinking where and when did it started?? hmm.. So I've tried to search and found this information ^.^ I know you can always search this on net, but for you to be hassle free already, just read my blog haha . So, sit back and relax and be idle just for this moment hehe

Every February 14th, candy, flowers, and gifts are exchanged between loved ones, all in the name of St. Valentine. But who is this mysterious saint and why do we celebrate this holiday? We’ve found 2 different legends ... Enjoy!

The first legend, and perhaps the best known, began in Rome, when the Emperor, Claudius II, was involved in many bloody and unpopular campaigns. “Claudius the Cruel” as he was called, was having a difficult time getting soldiers to join his military leagues. He believed that the reason was that Roman men did not want to leave their loves or families. So, he cancelled all marriages and engagements in Rome!

The good Saint Valentine, who was a priest in Rome, in the year 269 A.D., together with his friend Saint Marius, defied Claudius and continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret.
When Valentine's actions were discovered, he was sentenced to be beaten to death with clubs and to have his head cut off.
But while in prison, it is believed that Valentine fell in love with a young girl, who may have been his jailor's daughter, who visited him during his confinement. Before his death on the 14th day of February, it is alleged that he wrote her a letter, which he signed  
" From your Valentine"
In 496 A.D., Pope Gelasius set aside February 14 to honor St. Valentine.

Another legend says that Valentine's Day started ...

in ancient Rome, on February 14th, a holiday to honor Juno. Juno was the Queen of the Roman Gods and Goddesses. The Romans also knew her as the Goddess of women and marriage. Then, the following day, February 15th, began the Feast of Lupercalia.
In those days, the lives of young boys and girls were strictly separate. However, on the eve of the festival of Lupercalia, the names of Roman girls were written on slips of paper and placed into jars. Each young man would draw a girl's name from the jar and would then be partners for the duration of the festival with the girl whom he chose. Sometimes the pairing of the children lasted an entire year, and often, they would fall in love and would later marry.
In the United States, Miss Esther Howland is given credit for sending the first valentine cards. Commercial valentines were introduced in the 1800's and now ... well .. you know the rest....

    So, did you fall in love already?? hahahaha

"HAPPY VALENTINES DAY DOLLS'

I love you all! Mwah2x Tsup2x

I'm a Hater and Complainer

 hello world! :)

I MISS BLOGGING!

for so long now, nothing happens especial in my life ^.^

I really wanna go out but knowing nothing where to go, I'd stayed up stuck at home :(

 I hope March would come the soonest! I'm really so excited :) I can't waaaittt!!

These past days and weeks, I was in a world of HATE and COMPLAINTS.

First of all, I hated and complained on the weather here in Davao.

It always rains! and to the fact that I hate RAINY season, 

and the reason that I don't want myself and my things get WET!

I will accept windy, sunny and cold weather but please, just don't rain @.@

Flashbacks of not so good experiences will occur during this kind of weather (emote!)

So, I would not recommend it to my own fragile-emotera self! :)

 I was so thankful that sunny weather starting to shine on our city ^.^

Second, I'm losing interests in my work.

There would really come a time in your life that you will get tired of something.

and this happens to me now. I'm tired of working :( .

Ive felt that my working environment isn't healthy anymore though I'm earning salary.

Not because of I'm Juana tamad but, I'm losing the passion for this work-

which was at the highest level during my first months here.

You know the feeling at morning where you want to sleep for so long

but need to get up early because of work :(

It started when Ive passed my resignation letter, and from that on all I wanted is to let the days go so fast

and hoping for February 29 to come and PRESTO! I'm free ^.^

Third, a bad sleep at night.

It was one week that I haven't had a good sleep at night :(

 It was sooo devastating huhu and ended up to have a sleepy head at work

I really don't understand such night episodes, at 3am more or less I woke up

and can't fall back to sleep again. I could close my eyes for 30 minutes, 

that would be the longest time, and after that I can see my self staring at my dark room until 6am :(

Thank God! after that one week of unrestful nights I came back to my good sleep  :)

how did it happened?? simple. I just eat a little at night ^.^

Coz that one week of sleepless nights I was in a full tummy when sleeping.

So when I decided to eat less, OLA! i LOVE my nights again :)

Fourth, I gain a lota weight :(

Starting last month December until now I was really craving to eat ^.^

I mostly eat cakes, donuts, chocolates ohh I love sweet foods! 

For cold season, I usually crave eating anything especially what's mention above :) 

What's available inside the fridge, di ko pinalalampas haha

Even if I just finished eating something the gluttony of me is calling hihi

ohh I'm so sinful! sorry Lord!

so when I was looking at my body on the mirror I just realized I was so FAT!

MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS! what happened?

oh noooo... my chubby face, becomes more chubbier LOLZ

well, basically I hate my body.. ang laki2x na ng bilbil ko, e dati wala to (echos!)

Now, I'm on the moment of EATING LESS haha- eat less only in evening hehe

oh well... I hope It will all soon pass hehe :)

Living Life to the Fullest! Love Lots!

Thoughts

 I've been wondering always, that life is short..... short as it is.. you'll never know when your life ends.

Waking each morning is one of the best gift God has ever gave me. 

The air i breathe, the water I drink, the food I eat three times a day,

seeing my family each day happy, NO, NO nothing can compare.

What are those that you don't have that God doesn't provide??

I don't want to demand so much in my life.

I was contented of it.. living life in Simplicity.

When blessing comes , then it would be extra Happiness.

It means, God was so GOOD ALL THE TIME :) 

As far as I remember, I accept God to my life last April 2007

during our church youth camp. I was 2nd year college back then.

I accept Him not because I was forced to but my heart beat His name.
Things changed starting that.
I'm pretty much sure I wasn't the best servant God wants me to be.
I also disappointed God- there are times I became tired serving him
maybe because of some unnecessary pressures around
that I forgot about Him.

Ive also found out this year that my life's spices was twice the event compared last year.
Lots of problem occurred, but God was always GOOD.
He never left me. He never was. ^.^ and by that I was victorious!
We cannot really learn without pain but,
we can do everything thru Him that gives us strength.
When God takes something away from us, it only means that He has something better planned.

We just have to wait.

This Christmas, Ive always felt burning sensation in my heart.

Ive always wanted to have a mission - and that is to help.

Making life more sensible and meaningful. :) 

Living on God's word :)

I hope one of these days I may able to accomplish it

again, I become emotera regarding this post haha

anyways, Live Life to the Fullest - in accordance to God's plan

Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.

Love Lots,

♥Ysay♥

When I went to MANILA and Manila Ocean Park

.. I really want to write something and I couldn't find any topic to discuss with. So I decided to take a look at my photos saved in the computer - and found out the photos taken when I'm in Manila. I had a good time going to that city so I opted to make a post about it :P

Last June, I went to Manila with a personal objective , and it was my first time to do solo traveling! Despite of being so noob on that city, I was scared also because I don't know what will happened to me and I have no relatives to back up. Anyway thank God the trip was nice and SAFE haha thanks to that someone! :P 

 I'd stayed at Go Hotel at Mandaluyong which is definitely too far from the aiport! I just knew it after I confirmed the hotel booking LOL! so lesson learned "try to look at the map first before doing any move" haha. I arrived at Manila at midnight so no more traffic jam ^.^

this is the hotel's facade at morning 

just in front of the hotel is the Boni MRT Station (not so sure) hehe

their road was so wide! 4x wider than Davao

When I saw the MRT train I was a bit excited and nervous lol!! 

gonna be my first time to ride that one! hehe

Manila was so urbanized compared to Davao ,so my expression was always in "awe" to things, buildings, establishment that doesn't exists in Davao haha! Most was new to my eyes. I really don't give a damn to the Tagalog's who saw my impression bleh! 

The first stop on the first day as far as I remember was in Trinoma or Robinsons?? LOL oh anyway not so important as long as we ate at SBARRO!  haha gee.. again! no sbarro at Davao so in my mind, this is my chance to taste it! :P and it was the best pizza Ive ever tasted yet. Another first time done on the list. 

isn't it so lekker?? yummy!

i ordered chicago deep dish and someone's ordered angus cheese? oh forgot the name.

i think the pasta's name was puttanesca, served al dente :)

After filling the gastronomic craving, I think it was time for Manila Ocean Park. It was June 12 (Independence Day) and some streets were closed in Manila and the aftermath is we walked! LOL. It was noon time, the sun was up so you can just imagined how hot it really was! I didn't bring umbrella coz I only availed of Go lite on my flight and umbrella cannot be handcarried it should be checked in.:(  not so long in walking we arrived at MOP. They have a promo at that time and I just paid php 800.00 for the whole shows. Perfect timing! im starting to regress haha

I didn't get a chance to take picture on the Ocean Park's entrance coz it was really crowded.

I think, this time they were under renovations hmm.

The first show watched was the SEA LION'S SHOW :)

They performed so nice and I enjoyed it!

as the sea lion's performed! :P

next is .. another sea lion! haha :P  inside it's captive place

don't mind my face! haha just looked at the back where the SEA LION freely swim, captured just right!

and so.. we went inside.. :P

next is the JELLIES!

Self portrait with the DANCING SEA FAIRIES! haha 

Some jellies looked so scary! eeeh

next is THE FISH SPA!

Look at the fishes mouth seems ready to suck your tired feet! hehe

as my feet soaked on the water , the fishes starting giggling me! haha

super nakakakiliti at first promise! oh i missed this part :(

anyhow, the sucking moments was effective! It somehow relieved my tired feet.

next show is my most favorite! 

MUSICAL FOUNTAIN ^.^

Super duper awesome! :)

Last but not the least is the OCEANARIUM

inside the OCEANARIUM, you can see different kinds of fishes or any form

of underwater life :)

..................................................................................................

woo.. super fun, tiring day! hehe anyways I've just felt being a kiddo again. 

If given another chance to come back at Ocean Park , i'll go on their new show?

the newly built THE ANTARTICA which was opened last September.

where Penguins was one of the main attractions :)

aja! I'll never forget this.

Living Life to the Fullest, Love Lots!

December

HOWDY FRIENDS! ^.^

 December already started few days back and I haven't post yet something this month! gee...  I never did anything so special these past days and I think I just procrastinated on "DOING WHAT ONE SHOULD BE DOING" lol.

I was just feeling too lazy and tired starting this month! I dunno maybe because of the weather?? getting cold already, wind on cold breeze , always raining in the morning, getting shoe mud on the street which I personally don't like hehe - cause it turns me to be unproductive even at work hmp. 

December is one of my favorite month - people in this month turns to be more generous , loving , helpful :) you know Christmas is here - where LOVE, JOY are everywhere! :P Nonetheless we should never forget on our tradition that Filipinos celebrate Christmas because it is the time that Jesus Christ was born and that's the most highlighted event of the month :) Even on religious individuals where Simbang Gabi was an activity and cause seething individual on catholic churches was never missed! ( I never did experience Simbang Gabi ever in my life hehe why? cause I was not born Catholic ) anyhow, to be honest despite on all the things I said about Christmas above I really can't feel it :( Hmm, I can't feel something for Christmas eve and not even excited about it rather I'm looking forward for the activities on upcoming weeks like our water rafting adventure, bracing my teeth, my kuya's "welcome home party" from other country and our company party hehe. Sound's really selfish on what I felt about December maybe because I tend to be sad with the weather here in Davao and it was overpowered by my emotion meh ganun? haha :P Sometimes, I even caught myself looking to nothing! LOL there's just something that I really can't explain , there's something lacking hmm.. emotera si ate hehe but hey! Ive noticed something about an happening that turns this month a little bit interesting hehe.

PHOTO CREDITS

 Since December 1 up to December 5, I saw from sky every evening a "smiling moon", cause the moon smiles! haha corny well in reality it's what you call "Crescent moon" that appears on the 1st and last quarters. It was straight five days! and I was in awe always when I craned up my neck to the sky and saw its shape SMILING on me, and has been soo bright every evening (exactly the photo above) wee...Another thing, the first and last evening I saw the moon, is with a star beside it!so cute! hehe  I'm not so superstitious but MAYBE, i GUESS .. It means something on me, for my life hahaha LOL  I was just amazed on the happening :) and you know, I have always a heart for MOONS and STARS. hehe that's why my profile name in FB is with "MOONLIT" in it (photo below) haha wala lang.. just wanna share :P I find them my attraction in the dark sky and get sad when It rains cause I couldn't see them being hide on clouds. Dunno, I'm just really fascinated with MOONS and STARS and will always be ^.^

anyways, maybe as Christmas will be coming the soonest my feeling for that day would change already, from LAZY moving to EXCITEMENT! hehe :) lets just see If I post something about Christmas eve hihi

Living Life to the Fullest!

YSAY ♥ mwah!
