Happy 18 months my mahal, my bebe.. I love you so very much so so.. Hahaha. Who would have thought that after everything we went through in the past we're still here loving each other? I'm glad that we've both learned from our mistakes, and we've both changed for the better. Basta, we both know we've been through a fair bit of heartaches, and yes at the time it seemed like we were never going to get back together.. but then I guess
if it's true love that we have, nothing and no one can take that away from us. No matter what happens, we will always love each other unconditionally. Yes we will fight, yes we will argue, yes we will get angry at each other just like any other couple.. but at the end of the day I know that our love remains.
When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a lady, I put childish ways behind me. Yes I admit, we fight like any other couples do. However if there is one thing we've learned from our mistakes, it's to be more understanding of each other and to compromise. If there is one thing we are both sure about..
it's that we cannot never be without each other. I love you mahal, Happy 18 months asawa ko :)

YEEEEEEEE. O diba kinikilig ang lola niyo. Hindi masyadong halatang masayang masaya. HAHA
it's called a break up because it's broken..
So how is it that a Superfox like you finds herself reading this blog entry of mine? WARNING Since most of us has been through a break up or two, I've decided to make up some tips, for my fellow ladies who are going through this again.. maybe it be for the nth time or so on. So ladies, and (some gentlemen if you want) , read on.
AAAAAAAAAAAGGGHHHHHHH ! F*%$!, it hurts. It's rocking the very core of your being. You never saw it coming. You knew this was going to happen. You were going to do it first. You only broke it off with him before he broke it off with you. You guys were suppose to be together forever. You never liked him that much anyway. He was such a great kisser. The sex wasn't that great though. You really really liked his family. He hated your friends. You hated his shoes. You miss him soooooo much though. There's no doubt about it ; these are some of the things that goes through your head at the point of a break up. True ladies?
A seemingly endless jackpot of sorrow that you won't be splitting with anyone else. However this doesn't mean that you're alone. Here's the thing that you need to know right now : YOU ARE GOING TO GET THROUGH THIS.
Breakups are among the most excruciating things that can happen to a person invited to the concert called life. Just because you know that your relationship is no good doesn't make the process of ending it any easier. If your not happy with your current relationship you don't have to make it look like you are, people will always see the truth. Even if you have reached the realization that he's just not that into you, or vice versa, that doesn't mean that you've been successful at pulling the trigger. I know it's hard to have the courage to walk away from the comfort of a relationship, even a bad one and be alone for what maybe a while.
Here's one thing to remember : Wasting time in a relationship that blows is just that -- wasted time.Time that could be spent looking, or waiting for the person who's destined to be your perfect match. Ultimately, there's no benefit from hanging on, your merely just procrastinating and delaying the inevitable. Staying in a relationship that's on life support isn't going to bring it back to life.
Some pointers to remember ;
* Anyone who assesses you or your relationship as disposable is not worthy of your time & tears.
* The harsh reality is that even if you have everything else in common, the one thing you don't have in common is the belief that this relationship can work.
* People come together, and sadly grow apart ( some cases only, because I believe in soulmates)
* A lot of pain you are experiencing right now is actually fear. FEAR of things being different than how you liked them, fear of never finding another love and fear of being alone. Why? because we are afraid of the unknown.. We all are.
* A break up from a sucky relationship is the first step toward finding someone truly worthy of your greatness.
So ladies, chin up.. Keep smiling, and you will find HIM one day. I really believe that there is someone made for us, for each and every one of us. I've found mine :), after being broken hearted a few times. I know some of you may think that, hey how can you say you've found the "one" when your only 20.. I know I know some may even say that, hey it's too early to say. I guess all I can really say right now is that.. I know it in my heart that he is the one God made for me., and vice versa. We just know it in our hearts.. And I guarantee you, when you find the "one".. you will know it too.

Here's some pics we took. Puro cellphone cam lang, hindi namin nadala ni Jonii and digicam. HAHA
10 Random Things/ 10 Things People Don’t Know About Me
So I got tagged by my homie Cindy. Honestly when I saw the title of the tag, my initial reaction was "oh no". I'm not particularly good, in sharing information about myself, it's not that I don't like sharing stuff about me, it's just that I don't really know what to share. HAHA, oh well I'll give it a try homie. Pero na fefeel ko na dudugo ang ilong ko dito! BAHAHA.
So here it goes ;
1. I grew up here in Melbourne Australia, and yes I speak English with the "Aussie Accent", and sometimes my friends say that it's amazing how I can shift from English (Aussie accent) to English ( American Accent) to Tagalog in a conversation. Siguro yan ang effect ng madaldal masyado haha.
2. I would love to learn how to write in Tagalog fluently. I mean I have no problem speaking it, it's just that when it comes to writing, nagkaka-nose bleed na ako minsan, HAHA. I would absolutely love it if someone could teach me how to write in "deep tagalog". It's my goal to be able to write one single entry here in blog, all in deep Tagalog. HEHE, ang tagalog ko kasi pang kanto.
3. I LOVE DRIVING around, may it be during road trips with friends or just maybe driving around when I've had a bad day. I always tend to put my hand up to be the designated driver when I go out with friends coz I'd rather drive them home than get drunk with them! Haha I don't know, but driving soothes me, it calms me down.
4. I'm a frustrated cook. I would love to learn how to cook all the "ulams" in the world. My mahal usually teases me about not being able to cook, gugutumin ko daw siya pag mag asawa na kami. HAHA, pero hey I'm learning right now. I know how to cook adobo, sinigang, and kaldereta now! Wohoo.
5. I was a heavy smoker for 3 years. I've quit now, but have to admit that I still smoke casually at times, but I don't buy my own decks anymore. Yay! are you proud of me? :)
6. I hate drinking, I hate that yucky feeling down your throat as the you swallow the alcohol. and yes most importantly I hate the hangovers. It doesn't mean that I never drink, I still do at parties occasionally, but not to the point where I would get smashed.
7. I'm a cellphone freak. HAHA yes you read that right. I think somethings wrong with me, everytime a new phone comes out I want it! I currently own 4 cellphones at the moment, I know that sounds bad.. I'm not materialistic.. I guess I just love phones! haha.
8. I love meeting genuine people, no fake asses! I love people who can make me laugh. I like to surround myself with positive, driven, ambitious and successful people! It kinda rubs off on me ( at times) haha.
9. I would still choose OPM songs, over International songs. ( If i really really had to choose between the two) I remember having a conversation with a friend back then about how OPM songs are more "tagos sa puso", I mean when you listen to OPM love songs, parang mas nakakarelate ka, at kapag break up songs naman mas naiiyak ka! Anyone else get how I feel? AHHAHA.
10. I'm usually easy to befriend. I just stay away from people who have nothing else to show but gossip about other people and other people's lives. I mean it makes me think, if they can gossip to me about this person I don't even know, they can most likely gossip about my life to other people too. I also get turned off with let's say, "good looking people" with no brains. Maganda or gwapo ka nga, pero puro hangin lang ang laman ng ulo mo. I love meeting people who I can have sensible conversation with.
YAHAAAAAAAY! I made it. HAHA, It took me 40 minutes to think and write all this up. Ayan enjoy chicken joy! =]

what makes a person beautiful?
Is it his/her physical features?
Is it his/her intellect?
Is it his/her way of living?
Is it the way he/she carries herself?
All these may be correct. But to me, it's a mixture of everything, mostly of the last three actually.
When most people hear the word "beautiful" they automatically think of the outside physical appearances because that's just how our minds work, but I believe what really makes a person beautiful is how they are on the inside; their personality and the way they treat you. You can truly tell how beautiful a person is by the way they act. What we really need to realize is that physical appearance don't seem to matter as much because the finest person can become ugly with the wrong attitude and vice versa, with someone who really doesn't have the looks, yet they can become the most beautiful person you know just from having such a great heart.
Some people may find a person to be physically attractive. But then again, if he/she has nothing else to offer than just her physical appearance, it can fade away over time. Thus, his/her beauty doesn't last. I found this quote on an article I was reading, and I can't help but agree with it.
"Praise the one who fears God, not the one who is beautiful"
Religion and other spiritual and meaningful things last your whole life, beauty on the other hand is transient- you might look nice one day and the next not so pretty. Or you might age and look different. but your inner beauty and the things that contribute to WHO YOU ARE not WHAT YOU ARE will last A LIFETIME.
Beauty for me, aside from being pleasant-looking on the outside, is being intellectual and intelligent. It doesn't mean that they have to know all the facts in this world but being able to converse well and being open-minded to learning new things. Beauty also shows in the persona's way of living. How he/she sees things; how he/she treats other people, how he/she deals with good times and bad times; how he/she understands other people and being able to show that you are somehow not just all beauty, but also brains. Knowledge is something we can all acquire and is far more important than anything else. Knowledge is something we can develop, at no cost.
We all know that beauty is a relative term. Really, it depends on the way a person defines the word. Their personality. Are they respectful of people? Are they unselfish and giving of themselves? Devoted? That is the most beautiful thing in the world. But isn't it sad that no matter how subjective the word is, there is still a generally accepted discriminating perception of beauty?
More important than learning how to look great on the outside, with all the image tips we can master, is beauty on the inside, whether we are male or female, young or old, single or married. Much more complex than the ABC's of looking great on the exterior, we must take a look at the mirror of our heart and soul, and capture the inner beauty in order to project the most positive image possible.
Looking great on the outside is simple. Merely paying attention to tried and true formulas by educating yourself in the steps necessary to look your best with hairstyles, make-up, color and clothes, balanced with the overall look of accessories and personal hygiene, are only a portion of your image.
Take the time to reflect..A step toward inner beauty takes time to reflect on oneself. Analyzing the Who You Are of life and seeing yourself for the first time, as others see you. Oftentimes we are in total oblivion, or denial about the Who We Are of life, and this is where the root of negative self-projection begins. You may have found yourself not caring what others think, as you rudely cut in lines at the grocery store or frantically honk your horn as you tailgate the elderly woman on the way to work.
You may think that you can wear a 'mask' of sorts and cover up years and years of resentment, rejection, judgmental attitudes, bitterness, impatience, selfishness and the 'me' attitude, inner shame, embarrassment, even the 'I don't belong' syndrome. But truth is, we cannot. People read right through our masks. The only person that thinks the mask is foolproof is ourselves.
Whether you choose to believe it or not, people in your immediate surroundings sense your inner attitude. They see through the windows of your soul and know if you are genuine or fake. They see by the face you wear if you are kind and tenderhearted, compassionate and giving, or if you are cold, calculating and harsh. People sense, feel and know.
Now let us all celebrate the Inner beauty in us! :)
what goes around comes around
Interacting with others is part of our daily lives. We cannot avoid it; we must interact with family members, coworkers, friends, cashiers, bank teller, etc. Conflict every now and then is inevitable, not matter how much we try and avoid this it still happens at times.
There is simply no escaping it. Sooner or later, you are going to run into and have to deal with an angry and bitter person or persons. Unfortunately, it's a fact of life.
Someone is angry, bitter, upset, jealous, mad, enraged, and you just happened to cross their path. So what's a person to do when they are faced with this
wild beast known as an angry human and they are bent on taking their frustrations with their life out on you?
Our society is
filled with bitter people, but are we to blame society, our boss, our neighbour, or maybe a friend that did you wrong? I really don’t care who did you wrong or what has happened in the past.
I do believe that many bitter people are simply seeking attention. They walk around as if they are mad at the world and seldom listen to anyone. No reasoning will make them understand what has turned them so bitter.
Sometimes in life things will go wrong, you may have hurt someone, or vice versa but we have to understand that it is just the way life goes. Life won’t always be in your favor and that is why you have to look the other way when we run into bitter people.
The reason why some people are so bitter can vary, but the main reason is based on anger. They are very angry and continues to pick on each and everyone.
They are always seeking to rant about something or someone, they never have anything good to say. Their minds are so filled with issues, that they don’t seem to have a moment when they can think of something good. I believe they make themselves bitter from the get go.
So I'll give you a scenario to enlighten you more ;For example,
a friend of yours dates an ex boyfriend of yours.Your Initial Reaction ; You get mad. You confront your friend, you two argue and you tell her that she broke your trust. You stop talking to her. In short you end the friendship.
Answer 1. Yes what she did
could be wrong in your eyes. But for this scenario's sake, we'll just agree that what your friend did was wrong.
Afterwards ; What do you do? Do you seek revenge? Do you feel betrayed enough, to sabotage their relationship? Would you go around making up stories about your
"ex friend" to get back at her? Would you befriend her friends, just to compromise her relationship with them? Would you go all through the trouble of making her look like the bad guy and for people sympathize you?
NO. Why? Because two wrongs don't' make a right.
My advice ; Get over it. Honestly, yes your "ex friend" may have hurt you in the past. But if they are happy with their lives, then I suggest you better start trying too. The more you dwell on the situation, the more bitter you get. Don't you get tired of gossiping at ranting to others about people who may have hurt you in the past? Get over it, the world doesn't revolve around you. People aren't always going to be there to listen to all your BULLSHIT. Yes bullshit, every second, and every minute you waste talking and bitching about other people's lives, is a moment you will never get back.
So I suggest, just go on with your own lives, fix your own mistakes, clean up your own mess and stop worrying about other people's mess. If you think that they have done you wrong, let Karma do its course. Instead of wallowing, and bitching how about get a life sucker!
If you think, by telling each and every person you meet about what your friend has done to you, people will start to hate her too. Think again. It's sad, how the only thing that keeps you going in life is gossip and bitching. Just shows how sad and uninteresting your life must be that you have to talk about other people's lives and not your own. It's sad how you see the life of others as an entertainment to yours.
My advice, careful. Watch your mouth and use your head. Kasiraan mo ang ginagawa mo, imbes na siya ang nasisira mo. Ikaw nalang ang hindi nakakaalam ng nagiging outcome ng kawalan mo ng utak at breeding. Masyado kang busy ng kakaputak. Ingat ka ha, What goes around comes around.
Life is so much better without having to worry about dramas, bitching, bullshit, and bitter people. Honestly, I'm loving life right now, why? Because I'm living clean. You should try it sometime!
NB ; to my friends sorry ha sa unpleasant post. I know this doesn't do me any justice but I just had to let it out, it's just this girl ( who is mind you, 5 years older than me ) has so much hatred towards me that she's doing everything she can to make my life miserable. I know hey, it's like you only meet these kind of people in Soap Operas and Movies, yet I am one of those unlucky ones who have had the honor (not) of meeting them. Pero don't worry hindi ko papatulan. Peace out!

onli in da pilipins part 3
Okay so a lot of people enjoyed my first two entries titled, "Onli in da Pilipins", and since some of you have asked for more, here's a few more pictures I'd like to share with you guys. Honestly, come on.. where else would we find hilarious signs like this right?, e di sa pilipinas lang!
Its funny that you never realize how unique Filipinos are unless seen from a foreigner’s perspective. Guess what is the first thing they noticed coming from the airport?
The pollution? Nope.
The scorching heat? Nah ah.
Just keep reading hey?
In the Philippines…
- Starbucks is more expensive than gas, and it seems like Starbucks is such a "big thing".
- Every street has a basketball court, but many towns just have one school.
- Students pay more than they’ll earn.
- Doctors go back to school to become nurses.
- Every girl/lady you see is holding a comb wherever they are!
- Fastfood is a diet meal.
- The public ladies restrooms at the malls are always full, because everyone is either brushing their teeth or retouching their make up, and you can't even wash your hands after peeing because they are all hovering in front of the mirror, which really pisses me off.
- Rodents are normal house pets.
- Beer, cigarettes and cellphone load are necessities; lotto is a commodity.
- Soap opera is reality; News provide the drama.
- Actors make the rules and politicians provide the entertainment.
Say what? Shoot para cute?
How deep?
At least we can complaint!
yey they sale wine!
no crossing because it's DEADLY!
Which one is better?
You buy demolished houses?
I see, even medical and dental? oh meyn!
At least, pwede na bukas!
onga naman.
Wait so do you sell sweets, or shirts? OH okay, sweet shirts?
Pabili po ng Miniral Water!
MGA LALAKE, DI pwedeng magbawas. EHI lang!
