Boys from the Hood

I say yow, thats my boys from the hood. They are always there for me as I am always there for them. They always make me smile like a child on a rainy day.

I really love the fact that we always support each other do our own thing. No one is trying to damper on each other's sunshine.

When the boys talk girls and when we girls talk boys like no one is judging. We can just let each other hang our dirty linens out in the open.

When someone's trippin running their mouth like they know all the issues about the crew. They might just have to go packing coz we wont back down.

I like the fact that we could just be living big. Rolling out in town. Rockin it out VIP style in Cebu. Hanging out in the beach in Bantayan. We can be all that. Work hard party harder they say.

 

 

Top 5 Filipino Youtubers that I Watch

Today I was asked by a friend, as she caught me killing my time on youtube, who do I watch on youtube. I told her my top 5 Filipinos that I am currently subscribed to. I might as well share it with you guys.

5. Erwan Heussaff

I know he is Half French, but why does he have an American Accent? Anyways, what I love about him is that he has this OVERNIGHT series in his channel where in he travels to a city and get lost in the culture. I also love his cooking segments. I also follow his blog, thefatkidinside.com

4. Coraleen Waddell

All I know is she is Half American and that she is currently one of the top models of the country. What I love about her channel is that, to me it shows her sweet personality. And Girl loves to eat. Major Envy.

3. Haley Dasovich

This girl wont say no to anything. She loves adventure. That ass though.(Im not checking her out, I'm just saying) 

2. Will Dasovich

 

To me, he is the guy that started it all. (I know he is not the guy but I just love saying that becuse he is the first youtuber that I can't get enough of. Plus he speaks Beki which is funny to me.

1. Daniel Marsh

 

I put him on top of the list because of his amazing cinematography. It felt like I am watching a Hollywood movie. Great job man and have a safe trip in Nepal.

Athena: The Fashion Slayer

She slays fashion like no one else can. Looking like a daydream that came to life. Shutting down everytime she is around. She doesn't do it on purpose though, it just happens. She is not all that. She is also a Registered Pharmacist so you know. She is IT. By IT, I mean she is everything all wrapped into one. Coming at you in style. 

Thoughts on Friends Growing Apart

I'm so sorry. This is not one of those happy post. This is one of those sad phase of my life. Sometimes shit happens and you lost touch with your friends. You grow apart. This post is dedicated to address that elephant in the room. No one seems to talk about it but today I am going to. So why do friends grow apart?

Sometimes we just have to let it die without even  saying goodbyes to each other. Sometimes when you see that friend you just have to pretend that everything is fine and just remember the times when you had each other best.

Sometimes the level of friendship is not parallel to each other. You see that friend like they are your world but to them you are the one that is always available. This one you just have to let it die.

Sometimes you've known your friend for so long that they thought you still are the same person back then. Like you guys are still in high school and it's now 2016. This is now. You have matured. You have changed and you don't live there anymore. You are no longer the same person you used to be. Drop it and leave.

Sometimes people use you as a shield. Bring all the drama to your face and let you handle all the negativity All by yourself. And because you are a good friend you let them use you. You fight all their battles for them. Handle all the drama and that subsides they just leave you like nothing happened. You have to cut this kind of people out of your life.

I have learned that a real friend lives in the now. The one's that never leave by your side. Someone who has the same level of priorities with you.

I also learned that you should never hesitate to cut people out of your life. You have an option. Use it.

Kalanggaman Island, Palompon Leyte

Skinny's Back. It was one of those random weekends wherein I saw a facebook post from our very dear Vice Mayor Mayel Martinez and to invite myself in. Drama free . Full of fun. Got the crew on lock. Y'all know that I could just be anywhere and fit in. Luh. WE do it big. That's how errthang went down.

Home Sweet Home

Hey what's up. It's been so long since I have posted something on this blog. Nope, I wasn't considering ending this blog. I was just busy writing and doing other things.

So, it has been 10 years since then. Since I was 19 I've been on this blog pouring my heart and mind into this.
I still remembered the day I started writing. I've never felt so alone back then. Afraid of what people might think of if I express myself out loud. Ten years on and no longer afraid. I couldn't believe it. It never felt this good looking back at the old me and making this blog as my home sweet home.

Random Days in the City

Passion

Not everyone knows the reason why I took up nursing. Back in the day, everyone who took up nursing have one main goal. To search for greener pastures. Im not gonna lie, it was mine too but my main reason was very personal. I want to understand what was going on around me. By that I mean my older brother. Growing up nobody explained to me what was happening to him. All I know is that he was crazy. None of my family told me about his drug addiction. Later on as I pursue this career I begin to understand him. I found my answers. All along HE JUST WANTED TO BE HEARD THAT HE NEEDED HELP.  His drug addiction was a cry for help that deep inside he cant utter. So I made it a point that wherever life may take me, no one like him gets left behind. That in this battle they will never be alone. I am here to help. I wont judge. I promise. 💛💚❤️💙💜💗💓

So Pretty

That's How You Know

  

 

Everytime I am in the mood for a lil dippin, I always give these guys a ring and just like that we on the roll. Some people come at me on facebook straight hatin but that's all they could do. They couldn't shake me coz I know I got them good. 

They're the kind that will give it to you GOOD when you need to be in checked. To other people they are strays but to me they don't play.  Love the way that I am the QUEEN of the Pack. 

 

 

CGA Hayahay Restaurant

I'm the one who goes to a newly opened restaurant not because it is new but because I wanna try what they serve. I don't want no nonsense when it comes to what I eat. If you are like me who wants home cooked meals like how your mama would serve you then this one is for you. Forget the flashy and classy restaurants, if you want to use your hands while eating feel free to do so, they wont mind. 

What I love about this restaurant is the homey vibe they gave me. When I went there, I felt like I was just in our backyard waiting for mom to serve the food minus the washing of the dishes thereafter. The open interior is very perfect for the very humid climate we have here. 

The price? Very affordable. It wont make you cry looking at your wallet.

Summertime Madness

To be honest, I always feel like I am wild beautiful and free just like the sea. Summer is always my favorite time of the year. And here in the Philippines it's summer all year long!!

Afternoon Delight

Some boring afternoon and we found our way to a local coffee shop and grab some afternoon delight. It is always a riot whenever I am with my homies. It's always good to know that you are with the people you love coz your secrets get thrown at your face and it is okay. All those skeletons in my closets go out and play because I know I am safe with them!

How to Find Mr. Right

Some of us had been searching for Mr. Right for a while now. It must have been an exhausting ordeal right. I mean, you are merely searching for someone who may not exist. But we should never loose hope. Someone out there is just waiting to be our Mr. Right.

I have asked my friends who already found their Mr. Right on how to find my very own man. Below are their opinions/tips on how to catch a good man.

1. Go out but not a lot. You should go out. Hang out with your friends. Go to places that you have never been before. Take that weekend trip that you have been planning. Chances are Mr. Right is just waiting for you in your weekend getaway. 

2. Go to Reunions. See someone you used to have a crush with from high school or college. Who knows they might also have a crush on you. They just never had that confidence to say it to you before. 

3. Create a new hobby. If you have new things to do means you have higher chance of meeting new people with the same interest with you. 

4. Get a new haircut. This is just my perspective with haircuts. New hair new life. Sounds so lame but I just want you to have that confidence that comes with the new up-do. 

5. Shop! Jazz up that boring style. I want you to slay! Dress everyday like you are going to meet Mr. Right.

6. Smile often. I belive that a smile just set things right.

7.Be the best version of you. Don't let things get you down. Be positive. Have a positive outlook in life. Positivity is the key.

When you are done working with yourself and you are mature enough, you will realize that there is no Mr. Right. Mr. Right is just a fucked up idea of a person we want to have. Certain standards we purposely create. And when we don't see that qualities in a person, we ended up hating life for not giving us what we want. 

I didnt mean to say that you have to lower that standards so that everyone would fit your description of Mr. Right. I mean, we just have to be realistic with it. I know you don't want to waste your time but I want you to take things slow. Believe me at the end of the day, it will all be alright. 

10 Amazing People of my 2015

All right! How amazing was my 2015? It started very rough but it ended up how I wanted it to be. A lot has happened. A lot of firsts. It might be a little late to do this tradition but I want to thank the people who made my 2015 worth looking back.

10. The man I love. How I wished you kept it a little G for me to know that you don't love me anymore. But still, I want to thank you for helping me learn when to end a relationship. The feeling of not knowing where you stand in a person's life is the worst feeling in the world.

9. My Girl Honey Cocaine. Your songs kept me in check. 

8. Batibot. You always make me happy.

7. Lucas Soétaert. Thank you for everything. I had the best and most memorable summer with you.

6: Samantha Mae Cavalida. I've been finding words to write here. Just to let you know how much you mean to me with out it sounding like you are my girlfriend. You are my Ride or Die kind of friend. You are my rock. You keep me sane when I am insane. And always, as always you were always there for me. Thank you.

 

5. Madixlej. Thank you for acting delighted to hear all my crazy stories. I needed an outlet for all my whines and rants and you were always there ready to listen. 

4. Yazz. Thank you for all those private dances. You just made me want to drop. We go hard!

3. Cara. You are an Inspiration.

2. Klynt. Thank you for the laughs. Hope you like snapchat.

1. Kajane. You know why you are always no.1. Please be on snapchat.

The Blind Side

No I am not talking about the movie!

Pardon my Absence

Sorry for my absence. No I wasn't dead and gone. No I wasn't planning to take over the world. Let's just say I was hibernating. Now that I am fully awake. I can put my hands back on deck. 

A lot has changed since then, though I still got the same job but I felt like I have the same old brand new me. Sounds confusing right? But you see, in between that confusing statement, I found me. Lost, drowned but still breathing. 

Let's forget about everything in the past and start anew. Play if you have to play. Run if you have to run but just don't quit. Let's all be a game changer. You know the one who changed the game not the one who sits on the bench and let the game thaw out. 

Day Dreaming

Lately I've been day dreaming a lot about snow.
