“When you want something and work really hard for it, the universe conspires to make that happen.” 

I have been a firm believer of this thought since forever and now I’m still pinching myself but I must start believing that I finally got one of the things I really dreamed of doing. But to be able to move on to something greater, there’s one thing that I need to accomplish. Not for the sake of finishing it nor doing it for other people but for myself. I owe it to myself after all. May this entry remind me of the hard work and the good fight I have put up, the sleepless nights, limitless tears and countless others when I get to read this months or even years later. So before I embark on another exciting journey, may this remind us of the bittersweet endings one has to go through to an even better opportunity that lies ahead thus motivates us to do better. For the greater glory of God.

Never give up. 

P.S. This video inspired me to write this entry. Blog update after N years. 

Rebuild

Let things go,
See with your 'new' eyes,
Stand in the other person's shoes.
Most importantly, stand in your own shoes
And examine where you had lost yourselves along the way

P.S. Thank you for the eye-opener blogpost. =)

Prime numbers

Prime numbers are what is left when you have taken all the patterns away. I think prime numbers are like life. They are very logical but you could never work out the rules, even if you spent all your time thinking about them.

August rush

Oh, whatever happened to July? Its now mid-August and the last time I checked, July was still naghihingalo. So many things to do, so little time. And so many things seem to just flash in an instant I could not barely recall if they happened just days ago, or about weeks na.

Right about now, I am still trying hard to delineate my personal work (which involves my thesis and class reports, exams, etc.) from my real work. I already made a weekly schedule on the things "to do". Its a weekly basis so at the end of the week, I'd then be able to evaluate myself if I accomplish something or none at all. I hope it'll work for me this time. So help me God! =)

Wow, days just went by too fast, isnt it? *shrug* I got scared at how days, weeks, months just passed by crazily fast. And life goes on so fast. =))

Anyway, I am happy to be back here after a short silence. I'd like to share a few photos or updates on my life's recent happenings. So kailangan talaga may update sa life? But of course! hahaha

One word: Grateful <3

My close friends in graduate school, "the homies",  reunited. This is a post birthday celebration for our dear friend, David.

Few of my favorite people. My close friends aka housemates/frathousemates. Enjoying our sushi, ramen and sake. Celebrating my love, Lei's birthday. <3

Dinner date with mon amour Paul and his Tatay, in a Korean restaurant in QC.

Another discovery in Katipunan. This instantly became one of our favorites. We love that its healthy, its near our place and its affordable. Go Salads! :)

Can't wait for the long weekend!=)
