List


I don't have a Tumblr, but I find Tumblr posts really amusing. I hope you don't mind me re-blogging it here. :)

Anyways, I find this list really cute. But among everything written here, these are the ones that got through me:

5. Hug me from the back.
My favorite scene in all the Korean dramas I've watched is that of Goong, when the female lead is salivating on the male lead's back. I found it really cute that she wanted to hug him real bad, but she's forcing herself not to. Haha. Since then, I find guys with backs like Joo Ji Hoon attractive. :)

So anyways, why do I like hugging from the back? I like surprises and I'm not a very touchy person. So, I have to be surprised in order to have skinship. Lol. Holding hands tightly would be a lot more romantic or kissing hard maybe, but Idk, this suits me best, I guess.

6. Go to church with his family.
I am very family oriented and I have a Christian background. In my opinion, nothing beats this item in the list. If someone ask you to go to church with him, it means his feelings for you are real because he doesn't only care about the life you're living right now, but the life that you'll live for all eternity. 

8. Write a song only for me.
It doesn't matter if he can't sing or he writes well, but this idea is really sweet. There's this popular artist in Youtube named JRA, I really like the sincerity of his songs. I mean, who can put cucumbers and bluetooth in a song and still manage to make it sound romantic? I could listen to that song over and over again and still feel butterflies fluttering in my stomach. Haha.

9. Stop me from sleeping just so he could talk to me a little more.
If not for my part-time job as a tutor, I probably won't improve my conversation skills. I am very boring and uninteresting to talk with. I think I am more of a writer than a speaker, not that my writing skills are any better. So if anyone would just stop me from sleeping just to talk with me a bit more, then I guess he was able to see past through my boring-ness and uninteresting-ness. For me, that's really cool.

14. Help me with my homeworks or do my projects.
Too bad I'm out of school already. Haha. But this may be rooted to Ely Buendia's line, "Gagawin ko ang lahat pati ang thesis mo." A few months ago, I really needed that Ely Buendia. Hahaha. Anyways, I was able to finish studying without him. So for students! Find yourself an Ely who cares about your education. :)

20. And most especially, tell me "I love you" with all of his heart and show it in his own special way.
I don't really mind if I don't hear I love you everyday. I've grown up in my family being less "malambing" than the usual ones. We rarely say I love you to each other, or hug each other, or give family kisses. It's like we're more of a barkada living under the same roof. Though we don't show it that much, we know deep inside that we care and love each other.

So maybe that's why way of showing my affection is also not through words. I want to feel love and not only hear it. Somebody told me before that everyone has a different language of love and that's what I wanted. A not so typical way of showing someone's love. <3



Ang cheeeeeesy. Sorry, that's what you get when I'm stuck at home all day watching romantic flicks and stuff. :))))


Break-up


I can't imagine how painful it is to break up with a person you have practically been used to seeing, talking with, and hanging out with for so many years. I haven't experienced a lot in life, so I wouldn't really know.

But here are my thoughts: It's kinda messed up how people can stay in someone's life for a long time and then when trouble strikes, they would leave you just like that. I hope that that won't happen to me. If I'll fall deeply in love with someone, and that someone doesn't really have thoughts of staying in my life for good, I hope the good Lord would immediately cut our story short.

I know everything happens for a reason, but the thought of it really scares me. Like you would give your all to that one person--your dreams, your time, your life but he won't do the same. And just like that, he'll leave you hanging on, waiting, thinking that maybe somewhere in the back of his mind he also has thoughts similar to yours.

I have a friend who has a recent break up. I feel sad about it myself. When she said that when she's alone in her room, loneliness starts to take over, I feel like flying all the way to her house and make her feel ok. Hey, I would also want someone like that if ever I felt this way.

Hay, love. </3

Sabi nga ni Henry Youngman, "You can't buy love, but you can pay heavily for it." Ouch.

Bilib ako sa kulay ko.

I don't know why Filipinos want to have a lighter skin. I mean, kayumanggi is our natural color and we must definitely be proud of what we are.

Lol, jk. I can totally feel why Filipinos want to have whiter skin. To tell you honestly, I also would want a whiter complexion. For some reason, maybe, I was also influenced the by the media telling us that we should be whiter. I would be a hypocrite if I tell you I wanted to retain my darker shade.

Pwahahah. I was really dark. But then again, I'm still dark as of this posting. But recently, people have been telling me that I have a lighter complexion now. But that's because I no longer walk the streets of UPLB umbrella-less everyday. 


I'm not going to do a testimonial now on a product that I'm using and I have proven to be super effective. I'm just reminded of what my previous boss told me. He said I should get a whiter skin and I'll look more presentable when he sends me off to do meetings somewhere. So this makes me think that people would really judge you based on your skin color. Like, I know this girl from the university, I tried photoshopping her picture to turn it darker, and she didn't look as attractive. Just kidding, I won't really go that far.

What I wanted to say is, in our society today, we subconsciously judge people based on their skin color that it becomes too unfair. So what if I don't achieve the lighter complexion my boss wanted, I won't be able to present myself well in meetings? It's good that you are concerned of what you look like, but I'm still a believer that when you have the skill, regardless of the skin color, you'll still do well.

Someday, when I get to become a boss myself, I'll hire darker-skinned people.

So I'll be the whitest in the company. Joke.

Honestly, I wanted a whiter color just because I think I look better when I do. But if I'm going to be judged of my skills because of my brightness vs contrast--nahhh, I think I'll just let my true colors show.

Di makatulog sa gabi sa kaiisip.



Kakilig. <3333

I got sunshine on a cloudy day!

I felt sunshine on my skin today (finally).

No, not really. It was a rainy day today but I had to get out. My mom practically pleaded just for me to get out of the house. She complained about how I have no plans with my life and how I really don't want to find a job.

I initially planned to go to the university early in the morning. Like the usual plan in my head, I wanted to wake up at 7am today to get back to my exercise routine. But yeah, I failed myself again and woke up at 8:30 am. Mind you, that's very early compared to my recent wake-ups.

My mom reminded me that I have an appointment today to get my documents for "future employment." Lol. I cringed a little when I said that. Anyways, I told my mom that maybe I should just go there after lunch, then she angrily blurted out that it was again my way of putting off what I needed to do. I told her I was broke and she said she'll give me money just for me to get out of the house. Ha-ha. Man, I love my home too much.

Anyways, hopefully tomorrow, I'll get enough guts to send my resume to a company I'm eyeing. It's just a part time job, though. But to tell you honestly, I'll rather have two part time jobs than one full time job. Why? Because I can't let go of my free time. Ha-ha.
