content

talking to a good friend made me realize that i'm contented with my life.

thank you cha.

i finally found the explanation to why im such a loner (but not lonely) lately.

basta ako happy. alam mo yun, it feels like i've made the friends that i need in this lifetime. friends who i know will never leave me, and no matter where i go or how long im gone for, they will always be there when i get back. i dont expect them to just sit there and wait for me. that's just plain silly. i know that in the time that we're apart we would grow, mature, and find our place outside our little circle. then when it's time to come home, we would all still be there, back in our circle, friends again but this time, more mature and grown up.

being apart helps us grow up... we don't grow up when we hang out with the same people all the time. we grow up when we step out of that circle.. when we see the world around us and what it has to offer. this i learned the slow and difficult way. i never understood before why people had to leave in the first place, but now i do.

im not closing my doors to new acquiantances. they can come and go as they please and i wouldnt give a rat's ass about it. the people who are important are the ones who stay, and i found them.

p.s. thanks to new friends too, for cheering me up and for reminding me that i only need a handful to be happy (thats you. :))

Pari.. di ko nga ma-imagine na darating pala tayo sa puntong ganito.. I mean yes we will be mature but to the process na marami tayong maiiwan na tao.. at makikilala.. at aantayin at meron din namang magaantay sa atin... Well not only people.. alam ko sa maraming larangan pa.. career, money, at kung anik anik.. But one thing is for sure..wherever you may go.. at ako rin.. NEVER will i lose you and our other sistersfriends.. iilan lang yan.. hehe.. Pari theres a LOT to enjoy on your bday.. not our age ha! hehe.. pro cmon.. this is not the yada yada thing u here with other people..

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Happy Birthday Iratut!!! sorry d kita ma IM morning shift kc ako ngayon eh...i miss chattin with you...muah muah...o nga pla I agree with what Cha said. luv yah!

Share ko lng to sayo...

We can love someone and just be happy about it even if we know that it cannot last forever. It is not about having someone. It is not about owning a relationship. It is just about being happy because you know you have loved someone. There is a purpose and meaning behind all events and this purpose and meanings develop you as a person and a lover. Whatever relationship you have in your life now, they are precisely the ones you need at this moment.

Ira, stick to the formula, and you'll never want anything more. It works for me, and it's working good. I'm having a fun fun time now making fun of people who are so craving for acceptance from complete strangers.

Cheers! MUAH!
