Healthy Living Devotee

2012-01-25T09:22:00.000-08:00

I am attempting to devote into a healthy lifestyle! Life really is just at once. No more of it once the life line goes flat. And certainly no going back to what "should've" been done. It took me discomforts to get to this realization. I do not want to get to the worse side before taking action.

So once again I will start living life with awareness of what I eat and awareness of how i go on with my everyday life. May the day be stressful or stress-free, I will devote myself to a full awareness for my own sake. Nobody would really put someone else's life first before theirs, so gotta take care of mine so i can be a fully-functional social person. And let the Month of January (well, the rest of it) a start of my daily exercise and healthy eating.

Healthy eating is just not about WHAT we eat but also HOW we eat WHEN. That is one thing i learned from my own research with my serious indigestion and belching and abdominal discomforts.

Its just about time to re-visit my blog posts and this is definitely a good reason to be back here again! Will probably be posting articles about healthy living and healthy recipes!

good to be back!

AWETHOME TIME OF MY LIFE

2008-09-25T17:28:00.000-07:00

Im still going with my trip. I just wanted to share what i have been up to with this trip. Its just so amazing that I cant stand not sharing it....

Our trip started in San Jose, CA- to get the car we rented. We had some issues with the rental and we almost didnt get the car and almost fucked the entire trip..

From San Jose we drove all the way to the Yosemite Park. Its like 6-7 hour-drive. We made stops along the way so it makes it longer than it should be. I didnt care about how long the drive was!! The only thing I truly care about is IM FUCKING DRIVING!!! The most awaited moment. Ive been longing to drive again, and with this trip, it all happened!!
So, we got to the Park at midnight. We looked for camping grounds around the park but it was all full. So we were tired and sleepy and hungry so we parked at Camp 4 and spend the whole night there- we slept in the car.. As for the MOD (mission of the day) we finally get to eat dinner at Yosemite, only we had it in the parking lot.
The following day we went to see the most amazing cliffs in Yosemite. After having lunch there we drove to Lake Tahoe.. Spectacular!!!It was really AWETHOME!!!! We spent our night around the lake and then left early for another drive.

My mind is pretty occupied right now so, I will keep you updated whenever I get the chance...

Whatever, Wherever..

August 17. This is the day when I lost my grip of my head! I got really dilirious about everything around me. Everything was an issue for me, which is not good...at alll... I woke early in the morning and went out to play basketball. I brought with me my tennis racket hoping I could play with someone. Whoever is in the court I could play with. Basketball was good, but tennis? Nadda. No one in there at all! I tried to call Atul hoping he would play with me, but there was no answer so i just left a message. While waiting for him to get back to me, I decided to go to church. After the mass i headed back to the courts, still nobody's there and still haven't heard from Atul.

When I decided to read my Charmed novel, my mind started to work. I never understand a single thing I've read. Few minutes of reading, it just came to me "I want to get far away from here!" I was thinking of going to AC. I wanted to be in the shore. I wanted to swim, I wanted to do something...I wanted to relax my mind. So I stood up and drive back home with my bike so I could get myself situated and get ready to go to AC. My mind was still raging with negative shit, I couldn't snap out of it.

I didnt realize my phone was ringing. It was already too late to answer it, so I just went on to hear the voicemail. It was Chloe. We talked. I was crazy. She knew it. I was pissed and I couldnt handle it, so I was really obvious on the phone. After I hang-up with her, tears started to run down my face. And then I just lose it! I was hysterically crying, and smashing every branches that's on my way.. I finally got home and drive in to the basketball court. There I saw a lot of things to smash the ground with. I just lost it and shmashed every fallen branches into the bushes and trees.. It feels good though...

It felt much better when I finally get to see and talk to Chloe.. Its always good to let it out...yah knaaawww....

This by the way is the only picture taken that day.. I didnt even take a picture of Chloe who just got back from Nicaragua..

The following pics are taken later that week.. Chloe's back in town so its time to keep rolling!!! Just do whatever..Wherever..

Dude?Look at you.. Look at ur smile!! Hehehe!! I feel you dude!!! - You started it. Not me.;)

Dont be shy..Come on Chloe!! let me see that smile again!!
Chillin' in the city.. Walking around the city and made a stop at some place near the railway..

This is really cute dude!! You look like the oldest kid! Hehe!!Made me wish that I'll have this time with the kids one day! Its cute just you and the kids somewhere else not at home..I love it!This day was fun...

Download Festival 2008-Susquehanna Bank Center in Camden, NJ

This was the lawn of the venue.. We got here really early.. Well the concerts have started already when we got here but it was annoying... There were few people at the PIT area so Alex and I went to the lawn to sit down and get some sun.. I really wanted to smoke but he doesnt smoke so i didnt smoke.. Fuck!! I smell it everywhere.. Fuck that! I couldnt, so I was screwed! I could've tried coz i have it with me, but then maybe I was in my trying-to-impress kinda mood so I didnt even try.. I know he wouldn't mind if I would but I just didnt.. I wasnt even drunk!! Damn it!!

This is the Ghostland Observatory!!!! THis band is awesome!!! They should've played from the first 'til before The Killers turn to perform.. But as usual.. It would have been great when I was able to do what I should've have done if The Boars were there.. REALLY FUCK IT!!! It would have been the greatest concert ever!!!
There are only two members of this band!!! Fantastic still!!

Waiting for THE KILLERS!!! - people were having fun with these balls getting tapped all over the place.. Some "kill-joy" kind'f people were pissed, but didnt stop the ball from bouncing all around..

Testing the lights.... The lights are beautiful!!

there goes the ball again..HERE WE GO!!!! THERE THEY GO!!! THE KILLERS!!!!!!!!

These pics are taken the night before the concert.. This is when Alex and I went out to watch "THE MUMMY" at Wayne. This place by the way is where the Boars shouldn't go on a friday night.. And yes, this is a friday night... U know where this is.. Dont make me mention it..from left - Alex, Me, Renata, Diana, Hanna, AnastasiyaWent to Atlantic City with the same people in my previous pic.. It was fun though.. We played frisbee, and volleyball.. It was fun playing with the girls.. They were funny.. Specially when we played volleyball, nobody knows how to play it except Alex. It was sooooo funny!!! We kept on picking up the ball instead of hitting it up over the net.. The volleyball court by the way is with the courtesy of Alex.. He brought the toys I brought the foods (as usual)...

Frisbee.. Not here though.. Our camera girl couldn't really take the shot..VOLLEYBALL!!! I love watching people play this sport but I dont want to be in it. I was part of it this day though.. It was just funny..
look at me...Im just laughing in the corner.. There's nothing I can do about it. The ball is close to Anastasiya. If she couldnt get the ball, how am I suppose to?Hanna and Anastasiya
Anastasiya, Hanna and Alex

2008-07-17T04:47:00.000-07:00

I LOVE THESE FIRST TWO PICS!!!! WE ALL LOOK GRREAT!!

His name is Brian

2008-07-10T21:43:00.000-07:00

Its been more than a year since I started dating... Im 23 yrs old when i started- It may sound fucked up to some people not having one relationship yet, not to mention not having the pleasure at this age.. I always felt I am way too slow for this and too dumb for all this shit- I dont know anything about anything. After all those tries and guys I went out with, none made me felt the urge to be with, except for one....or two...
I stopped after a while looking for "that guy" and found something else. I found friends. A friend at first but two became three- Chloe and I and then Steffi! The times went so fast but it was allllllll GOOD! ThE TIME SPENT WITH THESE FRIENDS OF MINE WAS ALL WORTH THE pukes, the meal-less weekends, sleepless nights, worse, the sleepless weekends. Now they started to go their own way. I was into this world with them and Im starting to think I have to go my own way as well. When I realized this, the stillness of life I felt while living this world was shattered. I cant really deal with changes that well.. I thought I am better than anyone else, but Im wrong. Im scared to go my own way. But I have to deal with it, like everyone else.
I wanted to try to go my own way while I still have an outlet left with me, so I did. I started dating again.
I went out with this guy from the city, which is 20 mins away from where Im at. It was fine on our first day, the succeeding days, didnt feel good anymore.. I asked myself "do I really like this guy?" I cant even tell. I tried to make it work but it just doesn't feel good being with him. It didn't happen just with him.. It happened all the time. I thought I like the guy but would realize soon I really dont.
The guy I mentioned earlier, his name is BRIAN. I met him last year. He was the only guy I wanted to waste my time trying-to-meet with. But we couldn't beat the odds.. There was no way we could meet again. I stopped after a while of trying but I waited for time. I was trying to get a hold of him and it was last week when we heard from each other again. And since then, I have been longing to be with him again. With my friends leaving, I realized I just needed someone I really like and I really feel good hanging out with. Im not sure If he feels the same way as I do to him, but I will take the risk finding the answer to this. Even if It means throwing myself to the pain every girls' trying to run away from, I will go through it and find it out myself. I wanted to know how it would work with a guy I long to be with for me. If It still doesn't work, Im done looking.. I'll wait..

My beloved boar friends!!!

This is Brian and his dog Bruno
WHEEEEEW!!!!! HE IS HOT!!!!! WHEEWW!!!

See you soon Steffi Boar!!

2008-07-07T12:26:00.000-07:00

This is it!! Steffi from Germany is on her way back home.

Things have started to change among the three of us. The closer the time separates us the deeper friendship grows.. Steffi was always the control freak..Hehe!! while Chloe and I are the freaks out of control.. Well, not always..sometimes not.... yah knowww!!! Steffi always stop us from doing something crazy even if she doesnt literally stop us.. She has become a part of us that holds our inner senses if we lose track of our awareness-kind'f-senses.. Right Chloe?

Steffi, u are such a quiet Boar!!! But we know you already (anymore, yet, again), so we always say to people "she only talks to the boars" & "she's talks when she's drunk, and she's funny when she talks drunk"

"The last time I'd get to see you and embrace you is at the train last night. It wasn't the best place in the world to say farewell, but Im going to remember it forever. And Im really positive i will see you again..soon.... AMSTERDAM if not in LONDON.... LONDON is too soon.. Im really jealous Chloe and you live close to each other compared to me. But im not gonna let my upset mind stop me from thinking of seeing you again soon.. I will make it happen!!"

Here are the last exciting moments we had with Steffi here in the US:

The FUGLY and The FUGLY:

Foxi MOVE!!!

Our present to steffi!! Its awesome!!!Steffi boar moveJust before the puke duet!!! HEhehe!

You are fucking weird Steffi but what the hell, WE LOVE YOU!!!! The BOAR WORLD is not the same w/out you!

See you again soon Steffi Boar!!!

Its my BIG DAY today!!!

2008-06-17T18:56:00.000-07:00

The night before my birthday!!! They fucking surprised me!

I was playing tennis with Atul and then after the game, Atul brought me to his apartment.. I was starting to feel that my night is going to suck coz I know what's gonna happen there.. Not knowing these boars tagged Atul with there plan to surprise me. Well, they didnt have a choice.. I was with him that night.

I was happpy to see them that night.. I wasnt expecting to see them anytime on weekdays but on the weekend..

ITS TIME!!!!! IM OFFICIALLY 24 YEARS YOUNG!!!
Cheers!!!

AND THIS IS DURING MY BIRTHDAY!! I was out for school.. We had a 15 mins. break so I went out to smoke... And then another sort of surprise unfolded before my eyes as I saw two very familiar faces walking towards me.. It didnt register for a few minutes who they were.. And when it came to my senses, I was like " WHAT THE FUCK? WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU GUYS DOING HERE?" It was Chloe and Steffi!!! They greeted me by saying "Get your bag in your room. We are taking you out!"

And here I go..... I did cut my class that night.. I lied to my teacher.. I said there's an emergency at home..Hehe!! My teacher doesnt seem to care!

Ang Candy nyeto ug ang DILDO!! I call it - Mr. Silly!SUSHI ON THE TABLE!!!!Whine ofcourse for the drinks...

And hit the bar ofcourse for dessert!!! @",)*YEAAHP!!! Its all over my face.. I am already under the influence of something.... And happiness!!

I AM HAPPY ON MY BIG DAY!!!

Another Weekend of Wandering & Spontaneuity

2008-06-08T20:20:00.000-07:00

I've seen two movies this weekend....again... Friday, the "Dont Mess with the Zohan" came out in theaters.. We've waited for this movie to come out, and friday night was the night to finally watch it. It was a good movie! Its hysterically funny! But i laughed more w/ "Harold and Kumar (Escape from Guantanama Bay)"... Its good. Its good. Its good!

My boars were sick this week so we didn't really expect anything to happen this weekend.. Well, they turned out to be FINE on saturday, so we planned to do something right on! We went to Kelly Drive saturday noon. Spent time to just sit down and have a picnic right beside the schuykill river next to the city. Its a hot and humid day but didn't stop us from getting out and do our boar thing.. I had to be back for Shayna's birthday dinner around 5pm so we didn't stay for long there. After we left Kelly Drive, they dropped me off at the habachi restaurant and waited for me to be done with dinner at Wynnewood shopping center. Shayna wanted to have her dessert at Maggie Moose, w/c happened to be where Chloe and Steffi are at.. So we had our ice cream there.. My hostfamily and my boars were there so its all good! It was fun though!! Jim treat us for ice cream so it was great! We didn't have to pay for our own ice cream.

I left w/ Chloe and Steffi from the ice cream place. Went to see Atul at his carwash but then he's out of reach so we decided to watch another movie. We waited for our showtime, so we grabbed some drinks at Great American Pub right next to the movie theater. Got our shots, then we headed to see "Kung Fu Panda". The movie was okay.. Some scenes of the movie was funny but I was sleepy when i watched it so, I wasn't that motivated to laugh much.. After the movie we crashed at my place- The Jewish Hotel. It was good! We had our laughs before we finally doze-off...

Sunday, we went to the beach! Left the house at around 10am, and it took us just an hour to get to Avalon & Stone Harbor. We are good drivers! Well, Chloe was driving but we followed our instincts along w/ our directions to get there w/o getting lost! We are the PATHFINDERS. We are good that way...Hehehehe!!! We spent the rest of the afternoon at the beach. Not in Avalon though.. There is a fee to go to the beach there so we looked for another beach nearby coz we didn't want to pay.. The people said its free in Wildwood Beach so, we end up swimming there. It was soooo HOT under the sun but the water was cold so its all good! It was great actually..
Steffi has to be home by six so we left the beach at 4:45. After dropping Steffi home, we headed to the mall area in Exton. I was trying to find an SD card for my mp4 but everything was already closed when we got there so we headed to a little park in front of the Exton Mall, while waiting for Steffi to be done w/ a little bit of work. Right then and on we planned to have a barbecue for dinner, so we were trying to make it happen. At first it didn't seem like to happen coz of some sort'f difficulties in putting a fire on the grill. But we're pretty much equiped in terms of nature, some sort'f weird skills and motivation to make it happen. So we got through that whole scene, and munch ourselves w/ a yummy dinner... It was great!! It was a filling dinner!
And finally, the usual ending, Chloe dropped me off at the train station in Malvern. I had to catch the last trip so I had to be there before 10:30, otherwise I'll sweat myself to walk home. @",)*

We had a great meal, and ofcourse we did not miss our dessert! Angel food cake! We had it on the way to the train station....

That's it! That's how our weekend was like! Its fun, everything just happened spontaneuosly..

I LIKE IT LIKE THAT!!!

We are at GAP having a drink while waiting for the movie..

Mess at the Jewish HOTEL-my room. Not really a mess..

Finally at the beach in Jersey! Finally got to lay down after moving from one beach to the other.

Im cheating..Its boiling hot u know!?!HHHMMMMMM!!! GUYS!!!
Steffi!!! HAHA!! GOT YAH!!! You are already late for work dude...better sleep than worry right? That's good! That's GOOD!!!Barbecue sunset!! @",)*

Try

2008-06-05T00:41:00.000-07:00

Its funny when i trace back time. The being I was before is still here. Nothing has changed. Things around me may have changed, Im still what I am inside. I may have done things that not in a million years i would even think of doing before, it doesn't change who I am. .

I remember when i was still a kid. I always see my dad smoke. I stole one stick of cigarette and stay at the back of our house and lit it up. I wanted to know how it feels. And the only way to know is to try.. And looking into my life now, I have done a lot of things because I wanted to try and see how it feels. I wanted to learn it myself and see it through. The feeling of wanting to try the cigarette is the same exact feeling i have right now into trying new things. And what pushes me to do it is to kill curiosity and put in the knowledge that comes with it. And once i get the knowledge I am in control of the urge.

I am fortunate I had the gift to see things from the top. I have learned to ramify myself. I could detach myself from life's predicament and find how things are going to work out whatever choices I got in my hands. Its not easy as it sounds. And it has never been easy to make decisions, especially when you have outside factors that you would have to consider. Well, what in life doesn't have a "BUT"? Whatever choices we make, there is always a "BUT". We just gotta learn how to deal with the imperfections of life. Be aware of yourself - of what you CAN and NOT do, and of what makes u happy (coz what matters to you matters)- and be honest to urself and you'll learn to sort things out. There is always a way.

This point of my life, i have made huge decisions out of the things that matters to me, and what makes me happy.. There's always this thing in me that questions if I have made the right choices in life. And the decisions I made now, reminded me of my childhood. I wanted to experience and feel how its like to live a life on my own. I wanted to try it out and see it through. It all fits in back then. That's how I know I am making the right decisions for myself.

It was in me before, still in me now, and always will be...

CONQUERING THE HEIGHTS!!!

This day is fucking cold!!! Oh well, this night I mean. Wasn't that cold during the day..
We went to the Poconos to go ski but we ended up going tubing because its expensive to ski. I haven't done skiing ever, so I was nervous when I decided that I wanted to ski. I was excited to go try to ski though. But tubing was fun. I left my left shoe in the middle of the slope so I had my bare foot against the snow trying to navigate my slide to the net. It was fun!! We bought cases of Smirnoff and Mojito while waiting for our sched. So, we were drunk when we finally got our tube.

Buying the tickets: Chloe, you must be 42" tall for snow tubing..
See? I told you we bought our drinks. This is Steffi the Smirnoff endorser.
Roll the she-she..

Amish weekend

2008-04-02T19:14:00.001-07:00

Important finger still standing up.. This is on our way to Lancaster. NO worries about turning the wrong way coz we just have to drive straight!! JUST STRAIGHT! "Follow him!! There's an amish inside that thing! Follow It!!"
This is an odd place. The place is kinda like the ones on a movie where the town is totally empty and it seemed like the killer is about to come out somewhere with a chainsaw or whatsoever and chase us. But we still managed to smile. As you can see in this picture.
Checking out the Chairs! I did check these chairs out too. Its just that nobody cared to take a picture. They were too overwhelmed to have seated on this kind of chair and totally forgot about me. Here's the amish farm we're talking about.. A frozen cow with rubber tits!! Seemed like Chloe and Steffi enjoyed smooshing the cow-tits. ;)
This is after squirting nothing from the rubber tits..
This is an Amish kindergarten classroom

The Philippines!!miss this fucking place!

Still the Egg night

2008-04-02T18:47:00.000-07:00

Brendan and I.. He's a nice guy.. I was so sure the first time I met him that Im going to see him again. Ahhheemm!!! Yeah..But it didn't last long.. I just wasn't sure what I wanted. But he was really a nice guy. I dont want his feelings towards me to grow that fast coz im still uncertain. I needed to slow it down. I dont know what 's gonna happen now..i'll just leave it up to time..
Steffi and Chloe were hammered this night.. We all went back to were our cars were parked after hanging out in the bar. We got to Brendan's car then we drive to where they parked and waited for them to walk to it. We haven't seen them after a few minutes of waiting so Brendan and I were wondering where they've been. We started to drive back to the bar and there they go, just standing right in front of the movie theater right next to the bar waiting for god knows what.. They were sooo funny that night! Such a Boar!! I love these people!!!
See how hammered they are?

WOOOOOH!!! SEE? SEE? I CAN DO IT!! I just have to lay down.. I was cutting classes when "flexibility" was taught in class way back in high school.. But I was always present when our teacher taught us the "egg roll". I mastered it too much that when i started doing the egg roll, i couldn't stop rolling.. HEHE!! You didn't see me.. I just did the cartwheel! It was a good one.. The wind blew hard so I fell down..
"HEY! WHAT'S THAT?"
"HMMMM!"
"CHLOE!!! WHAT'S THAT I SAID!!"

First night

2008-03-15T18:03:00.000-07:00

This is what happened when we got to the shore! You can tell it by just looking at this. IT FEELS GOOD TO LAY DOWN! Then the legs started to stick straight up.

Then we got wet! Someone didn't reach the water when she tried to dive. I thought she wanted to swim in the sand... "Shit happens all the time." But it didn't matter, it takes a cranberry juice and vodka to take the sand blisters away. And start posing!!! "THERE I GO!!!"
OKAY CHECK THIS ONE OUT!!! THIS ONE IS PRETTY COOL!!!

Sorry dude!! I gotta show this so people can tell i am good doing what you did..

OREDY!!!! FINALLY!!! IN MIAMI!

2008-03-15T17:00:00.000-07:00

FINALLY!! After a looong wait.. We finally arrived at our destination- FORT LAUDERDALE. Chloe And I were very excited in the shuttle car to SOUTHBEACH! We planned what we're gonna do when we get to the hostel.. "We should go to the beach and watch the sunset."; "Im going to swim! I dont care if Im tired.."; "Let's go to the Hostel first sign-in and then go to the beach." Before we know it the sun was already setting and we're still in the van.

MAn, it felt good to feel the warmth!!! Wheew!!! It felt good hugging that littl palm tree! I didn't even notice my stripe long sleeve wasn't there anymore. I only noticed it at the end of the week..

Since the shuttle-plans didn't happen, we decided to put our girlie-clothes on

AND..........................

GO TO THE BEACH!!!

We were suppose to go to a club but then we headed straight to the beach!!

M.I.A.M.I - On our way!

2008-03-14T20:30:00.000-07:00

5:30 Bus The day finally arrived to leave for Miami. We've waited for this day since last year since we booked everything back then. We wanted to get a cheaper deal of everything so we did it earlier. And we did get the great deal of the flight tickets and accommodation.
It was a loooooooooong wait before we got to Miami.
14th of March at around 11 we started the waiting. Our bus is not until 5:30 the next day so Chloe and I decided to stay up the whole night and stayed at a diner place in Philly 'til they closed. Fortunately, they let us stay and chill inside, or else we would have to deal with the cold outside. We could've just waited at the bus station but its just not our thing to chill inside a certain place unless its a bar. So, at the diner place a lot of things happened and a lot of stories were told. At the diner place (I forgot the name), we met John. He is one fucking cute guy who offered us his apartment so we could have a place to spend while waiting for the bus. But as much as we wanted to fool around with him that night, we turned down the offer. He tried to convince us that he's a absolutey a nice guy and has no dark intensions to us and just wanted to help (boy i didn't know we looked like we needed help that night). But we stuck to our "Thanks, but no thanks", giving him a very cute but inviting smile. Damn! He's really gorgeous, but we cant really trust people these days. After the I'm-mr.nice-guy-speech he took off. And after that we tried killing the time just chatting. Wow! Chloe and I really talked too much. From non-sense to dead-serious things, you name it, we've discussed about it. I just couldn't believe I found someone whom I could really be myself with to the real level of my old self(way back in the Philippines). I even got crazier. Im WAY too crazy than before. John went back to check us out that dawn, and sat with us on the table. We had a nice discussion with him that dawn. That's how we get to know his name and that he's studying to be a chef in the city. No wonder why he talked so much about food. After the meal, spices, desert, and fruit discussion, we went outside to smoke and just before his last puff he hired a cab and just took off. Though the taking off was weird coz it was in a middle of a conversation when he decided he had to leave, it was great killing the time with him. And like every first person to leave from a group of conversationalists most likely would get, we had a hunch about him. He has a "little girl" trapped in him. If you know what I mean..
The clock ticked to close the diner place, so we had to leave. It was just an hour and-a-half away before our bus had to leave, so we headed back to the station and waited on line. We were the first on the line and the one after us is an afro-american man who i believed just arrived at the bus station before getting on line. And for the second time that dawn, we had a great conversation with him. He's a phenomenal man. For Chloe and I that is. He talked to us about american people and the way they work with their alien employees. Man, that talk was awakening.. I couldn't explain what he said to us but it was really great hearing that from him. It's one of those things that people tells you which makes you realize something about yourself and open your eyes about what you're going through that moment of ur life. It was really amazing. It's one of those random moments that's trully a bombshell when you travel- meeting people who could leave a deep impact of remarkable moments that you could carry with you along the way-. Luis is his name. And he's one of those remarkable acquaintances we've had while waiting for our 5:30 bus.
Our looooong hours didn't end the moment we got into the 5:30 bus. We arrived at Newark International airport at around 9. Our plane to Fortlauderdale Miami was not until 3:15pm, so we waited at the airport till then. It was damn loong.. We've consumed 4 double-shots of espresso at the airport, and a million of words. No random moments, just lots of hairbrained thoughts and ridiculous poses(we got funny pics).. That's how silly Chloe and I gets when we're together.
It was really a hell of a wait. But our friendship deepened and new experiences added-up on the long wait. IT was all WORTHWHILE.

Getting ready to go....

Our first wait for a ride.. the looong wait came next..
Finally at the Newark International Airport !!!Waiting for our breakfast and waiting for our flight sched.
waiting.....
and waiting......
And waiting.. Got 4 double shots of espresso already at this point.Finally!!! Getting in the plane!!!
Cocktails in the air!! Its crazy!!! From this moment forward, the drinking kept going.

2008-03-07T17:36:00.000-08:00

This one I made this before! I wanted to give it to you! I edited some of it for you!

Bond of Friendship

I was left alone in the dark
so bleak, weary and cold
but knowing you're there to hold on to
is a light that gives hope
a warmth that lingers and
a heart that beats for eternity

The whole world closes in on me
I scream but no one hears me
I made a raucous sound, but it was nothing
I reached out my hands
hoping I could grasp unto somenthing,
but nothings there
I tried to be logical, but nobody understands

I turn to you coz your doors are wide open
for someone like me.
You can hear me if i whisper
and even when i'm mute
To you i'm illogical, but you know how to comprehend
To you i'm strong, but you know how weak i really am
I have seen that your heart is the only safe place i can dwell on
Certainty, Security, it's all in there
I unsealed my heart too
because i know you also need a heart to dwell on

But soon we would go our separate ways.
And go back to the life where we last left it.
That's one true sad thing we would have to face.
There would be oceans between us.
It blocks our way to be together
It's a barricade for me to cross
But there's One true thing I beleive that would keep us together
It's the bond that is strong enough to make us stand
The bond that makes one visible
The bond that makes us believe we're never alone

It's the same bond we held tight....

The bond of friendship....The only bond that lasts forever....

For you Chloe on ur Birthday!

2008-03-07T16:17:00.000-08:00

Happy Birthday Chloe!!! Im more than happy to have you as a friend! I want you to know that I love you for who you are. And You will always be a part of me. You will always be my Boar and my Xilla Oink no matter what..

I have something here for you.. This is a song about friends. And I feel exactly the same with this song and I want you to read the lyrics! This is from the heart!@",)*

Take Me, I'll Follow

Tired of feeling all by myself
Being so different
From everyone else
Somehow you knew
I needed your help
Be my friend forever
I never found
My star in the night
Filling my dream was
Far from my sight
You came along and
I saw the light
We'll be friends forever

I can't face the
Thought of you leaving
So take me along
I swear I'll be strong
(If/when) you take me
Wherever you go
I wanna learn the things
That you know
Now that you
Made me believe
I want you to take me
'Cause I long to be able
To see the things
That you see
know that whatever you do
I'll follow you
Somebody must have
Sent you to me
What do I have
You could possibly need
All I can give is my guarantee
We'll be friends forever

Teach me more in
Each passing hour
By your side
I know I won't cower
Is it true that
You have the power
To capture this moment in time

Take me wherever you go
I wanna learn the things
That you know
Now that you made me believe
I want you to take me
'Cause I long to be able
To see the things
That you see
Know that
Whatever you do
I'll follow you

I'll Follow you to France someday!! I will make it happen!;-)

Happy Birthday Chloe!! I love you!!

2008-02-23T12:56:00.000-08:00

Yehy!!! Roll it!!! Thoughtless moment.....Its so freaking weird.. I dont know about these guys but I really cant think of anything to think at this moment.. Something must've gone wrong in my head. But what happened after a few minutes of being thoughtless made me realize that we just needed something to boost our minds with thoughts...
What are you thinking Steffi?
Oh okay..now I know...
This is the start of the "boosting-our-minds-with-thoughts".. Whatever it is that's blurry in this picture, that was the thing that gave us a lot'f thoughts...

Boars n New York City

2008-02-10T19:44:00.000-08:00

February 8-10, 2008 - The Boars were in New York!

I love this picture! This was the last day of our Holiday (Its Vacation) at the streets of Manhattan. We didn't know where to go so we have to stop and think about it. But first, we wanted to take a picture so here we are.... And then we talked about what we really are stopping for. And so, we decided not think about what we wanted to think on where we should go from there. And we agreed to just "Stop thinking, and keep going".

In New York, we stopped thinking.. We never thought of thinking at all.. We didn't mind, we didn't care!
Be updating soon for more details about our weekend in New York.
I'll Keep you posted.

Nobody told me

2008-01-20T19:38:00.000-08:00

Fuck the rules! They dont really matter when you're in the real world.

Im furious to even think about it! It gets me right in the ass to think about what Im taught about! Dont FUCK someone if you haven't tied the knots yet! What the hell is that? That's not how it is out here! I mean, come on! How do I know they haven't eaten what they're teaching? Remeniscing those classes I've had in college, the words i hear from the folks, it is so clear in my head now. Its in every corner of my head.I want to punch those fucking assholes right in the face for teaching me what doesn't exist in the real world! For all I know they dont have the lessons they themselves are teaching.

I feel the rage inside! Im dilirious right now! Nobody told me how LIFE really is. Its a shame to follow what seemed to be right. Right now, I feel such an idiot believing life is lived that way. It runs in my veins now. It made me such a scarty-cat and ignorant of the basic human need. I thought I know. I hate it that no one ever gotten intouched with me. After all those high-school and college years, no one told me about it. I would have known what to do now. I wouldn't have been confused. No one's ever told me about it. None of my parents mentioned about it. I mean, ofcourse they've told me the whole "tie-the-knots-first" and i know now that its not just about it. I didn't even have the hint of my friends gotten laid already. I mean, it was a slap on my face. After all the confusions and the pressure and the skyrocketting thoughts of conscience before gotten laid for the first time, it was just me. It was me all along. It wasn't what I really thought it was. The pretentious aura, the phony tales. I was so stupid to believe what's on the surface. It made me realize that things aren't really what I thought they are. That there's more than just what the eye can see.
But I've lived all my years, since life started to makes sense, with what I believe is right. Its hard to get it out of my system now. Its fucking hard to deal with it. And to "When" and "How" im going to snap out of it? Who the hell knows?

Im waiting for the time where I can just let myself go with the rythm. I cant wait for that time when I will just stop thinking, keep drinking, and start fucking. LOL. What a funny thing to say when you're all furious about it.

Am I a Free Spirit?

2008-01-16T18:08:00.000-08:00

If there's someone I could tell my stories to, I wouldn't know where to start and I dont know whom to share it to.
Life has been distinctively lived in this side of the world. It did changed me a lot, but it doesn't mean there's nothing left of what i grew up with inside me. It's still in here, somewhere inside, wanting to come out. Everything around me is too diverse from what I beleived in. Looking at myself right now, Im lost. I lost myself in this world. There's too many choices and life is too loose. No limits. No right way. Life is good when you lived it the way you wanted it to. If you are happy about certain things, no one and nothing can hold you. No strings would tie you to take a grab of it. "Whatever makes you happy, go for it" - this keeps on reverberating in my mind. Its hard to keep this words in the surface of your head if you are used to do things with limits. The "LIMITS" have taught me to value things that I NEED than the things that i WANT. In contrary to what's around me and this point of my life now, Im totally lost. I dont know what matters to me now- Is it to see myself as a free spirit? Or someone that has been cast into this diverse world with responsibilities for her old life. My responisibilities of that so-called life, have brought me here. And to where "here" is, I discovered chances of life as vast as an ocean, ways of life I never thought it could be real. But Im still lost, should I go be a free spirit? Or should I let it pass me by, wishing that it wasn't the right thing and the right time.
