my weekend..

I have to travel alone from Manila to Balibago, Sta.rosa Laguna. My friend and I were supposed to meet somewhere to get her things from her previous boarding house and to spend weekend with her in Laguna. But she was too sleepy that morning, since I don’t have anything to do for the weekend and everything is set, I agree to travel alone although I really don’t know the place. She just picked me up on the Balibago Bus Terminal Station. Traveling alone was not really my type, I’m always afraid to get lost.. hehehe.. a very childish manner in my age now. Anyway, travel from Manila to Balibago Sta.rosa Laguna was a very short travel, I think it was just one and a half hours travel. Although, my friend assured me that Balibago Bus Terminal Station will be the last destination and all passengers will get out of the bus the moment I’ll arrive there, and that I don’t have to worry that I might end somewhere else, still, I can’t help myself worry during the whole travel. I can’t even have a short nap during the travel though I felt sleepy that morning. I remember, I can’t stop myself asking the lady beside me whether where are we whenever there’s a lot of passengers getting out of the bus. I was relieved when the bus arrived in the terminal, I also have to ask the other passenger if it was really the Balibago Terminal Station. From the terminal, I proceeded to the Jollibee nearby to wait for my friend there. I started to become impatient as the minute goes by, I have to call her every now and then though she said it will just took her 5-10 minutes to arrived there from her apartment. I hate being stranded alone in a place I didn’t know.


When my friend arrived to pick me up, we proceeded to the grocery nearby to buy some stuff and food for the whole day. We were able to talk different things while inside the grocery buying what we need. It’s been a long time since the last time we saw each other but in spite of that it seems that we haven’t seen each other in a long time and trying to catch things. Our talks and laughs when were together seems so normal and nothings change. And I’m glad about it. I cooked pork sinigang for our dinner while she cleaned the house. It’s great working with your friend in a house. Every now and then, she will go to the kitchen and try to taste what I’m cooking. In our home, it’s very often for me to cook since I don’t have much time to do such chores because of my work but I knew how to cook and I’m confident it would be a success. ^_^


Honestly, it’s my idea to cook our dinner. Actually, the budget saving reason behind that cooking was just a secondary reason to me. The main reason why I insist cooking our dinner is because of the thought that my boyfriend will arrive that night. Hehehe.. I just want to prepare food for him. Although, it’s not the romantic type of dinner that everyone may think of, because we’re with my friend in her apartment, but I’m just glad doing such things for him. Part of me still believes in the saying that “ the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach”.. ^_^ Just as I assume, it was a success, the food was great according to them.


My weekend was great, I was able to have my bonding moment together with my friend and boyfriend at the same time. I hope it would happen again soon.

An excerpt from the book Someone Like You by Sarah Dessen: Halley and Scarlett have been best friends ever since they met. Halley has always been the quiet one; Scarlett braver and more outgoing. Halley has always turned to Scarlett when things get rough, and Scarlett has always known just what to do. It’s the perfect set up. But everything changes at the beginning of their junior year. Scarlett’s boyfriend is killed in a motorcycle accident; then she finds out that she is carrying his baby. For the first time ever, Scarlett really needs Halley. Now Halley has to how to be strong for Scarlett. It won’t be easy, but Halley knows that she can’t let Scarlett down. Because a true friend is a promise you keep forever. ~~ This is definitely not a book review. I think I’m not good at it. I just realized while reading and after finishing it, that I can relate to the character of Halley. I remember when I was a kid, I don’t have a best friend to be called. There’s no kid in my h...

Trauma has its name..

Some of us aren't lucky enough to have a glorious childhood or teenage days. Some of us have to dealt with terrible loneliness, crying their selves to sleep, sitting alone in the park, constant yelling at home, much worst seeing their parents hurt each other both verbally/emotionally and physically. As I grow up, my sense of insecurity also grew up rapidly whenever I saw some kid having bonding moment with their families or having a good laugh over something or just petty things. Asking myself every time, will it get better? But I know, things won't change in a snap of your finger or a tick of a magic wand just like in some fairy tales we've watched when we were a kid. I grew up believing, happiness will come to me if I work hard for myself, for them to provide whatever they need. Maybe, just maybe things will change.  Physical wounds heals easy, but emotional pains stays within you. It is forcefully stored inside, keeping it from others to see, it will either make you or b...

FOR YOU..

For the independent ones, who doesn't let their family know their worries because they don't like them to be worried about anything. For the breadwinners, who many times have nothing left on their pockets but still have to find way just to provide. For the strong ones, who choose to stand still because they know they don't have anyone as back-up but themselves. For those who choose to go on, because they know giving up is not option, because what will happen to everyone they care if it's just them who holds it together. For those who sets aside their happiness because there is more important than that. This is for YOU. Though many times, things happens not as much what you want or planned for, one day, time will come, everything will take its place accordingly. One day, you will no longer worry for tomorrow. One day, you no longer stare at your monthly expenses or your monthly bills, thinking where you will get it. One day, you will no longer feel guilty whenever you b...
