2008
Wednesday, December 31, 2008There are countdowns everywhere, there are list of newsmakers, top sports events, top everything in 2008, so I’ve been thinking… what did happen in my 2008?
The highlight has to be travel. I have visited places I’ve always dreamt of visiting this year. I’ve definitely tapped the top of my dream destinations list. I did travel a lot, about 22,000 miles in figures. Come to think of it I almost trailed the circumference of earth.
I cracked my coin bank from college to help me buy my camera. Money well spent!
Kittens! Lots of kittens and the joys and heartbreaks of having them. The joys are pretty obvious, it’s just so much fun. Too bad we cannot take care of them all, so we had to let go of some of them. It felt like giving away my own children. Plus, late this year we had a puppy who now thinks he’s a cat. (more…)
The Perks of Doing Nothing
Friday, July 18, 2008Yay!! I have so many things to be thankful for, so instead of telling you how sad I am for being useless in this world, today I am actually thankful for doing nothing.
I realized that I did not totally waste the last couple of years because….hmm well I can say that “I’ve been traveling.” Since I graduated from college, I’ve been traveling and was able to see the world, or half of it or 1/4, I guess. I’ve been to, at least 12 countries, around 15 cities in Asia, Europe, and some places here in the Philippines, in less than three years. I am very thankful for those travels now more than ever.
Thank you for the places
I was able to see historical monuments, I mean those places I’ve seen in history books. I’ve witnessed a construction of a historical monument to be (that’s what they say in National Geographic). I am thankful that I experienced the places and landmarks that shaped this world throughout the years.To be able to stand there and say to myself “wow I’m actually here!”
Writing Helps, I feel better now.
Monday, May 5, 2008For the past two and a half years I’ve been doing nothing but sit around, travel (thanks mom!) and do whatever I want to do. Basically I’m a useless member of society consuming energy that contributes to global warming. As of now I have nothing that I can be truly proud of. I have done nothing, and that could be depressing. Splurging on short-term happiness is only effective maybe once a month, not everyday.
I’m a bum with a college degree, with interests ranging from theoretical physics to arts and design. Ideas keep popping in my head and I’m not doing anything. What a waste. And still I do nothing. This moment right now is where I feel most shameful.
Farmers plant rice and feed millions of people, a mother raises great kids that maybe, will make this world a better place, a writer writes and might inspire a whole generation, a janitor cleans a school after class and makes a clean learning environment for young minds the next day. It seems that they all have a purpose, they are actually doing something and I’m envious of them.

Ooops
Wednesday, November 7, 2007So today ay nabutas ko ang pick-up truck na sort of akin for the time being. Pano? habang nag pa-park sumabit sa turnilyo na nakausli sa isang truck namin… nabutas tuloy yung pick-up ko, tapos nag sort of lock pa sila, pag umandar yung pick-up, aandar din yung truck, don’t ask kung paano namin pinaghiwalay ang dalawang sasakyan… so ang result ay may mahabang scratch yung rear door at sa dulo ay butas mga 2 cm ang diameter…. hay nakakatawa talaga… So I’ve been thinking, parang di ko pa deserve ang new car… Realization: Di pa ko magaling mag park/drive. hay….
