my new found friends ...


Years ago, when I am being asked if I drink alcohol, I would answer right away "occasionally" .. Yes that's true! And that means, I only drink during birthdays, reunions, Christmas, New Year, etc. There has to be a reason for me when I'm having a drinking sessions with friends or relatives.


It was last year when I started hanging out and be part of my new found circle of friends. It was the time when I thought I don't have a friend at all and I found them. These are the people in the office that I thought I'll never be closed to (it was just my first impression, and again I'm wrong). I'm happy with them.



Nowadays, with or without reason, we usually have our drinking sessions plus videoke and food trip during weekends or Friday night after our work shift, either in a friend's house or in a bar just to have some fun or just to burn out the stress from work. Some might find this wrong or that we or they are not a good company to be with, but NO. They are just like any other individual people who just know how to enjoy life. In fact, they are nice and cool to be with. There's no such a dull moment when we're all together. From the first day I hanged out with them and until now, I can say that I already knew each and everyone's personality. They are good people who have good hearts too and like me, a family-oriented individuals.

if not me, then who would be?..

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...
