Shopping books = depression mode.

I was on my way home. Tapos, someone saw the book I was reading. Love in the Time of Cholera. Sabi nung officemate ko, super boring ng movie, pero maganda ang essence ng book naman, unrequited love.

Tapos, nasabi ko I shopped for books kahapon.

Sabay sabi niya.. "nako, depressed."

I was shocked. Ganun ba yun? Ngayon na nga lang ako ulit nagshop ng books eh! Ampness.

O well, maybe that's the thing. It's not very often I do things for myself. Because when I am in love, I give everything. So now, that I am all alone, and single. I find time to do things that I like, like reading. tambay sessions, hang-outs, music, and tv, and most of all sleep.

But honestly, I miss having that one person you can call your better half, that significant other, or if lucky, the "one". I miss having that constant thing in my life, the one who wants to be with you, who hugs you, who wipes your tears when you're sad. The one who makes you smile from the simplest to the corniest jokes. The person who makes your day, who helps you get through tough times, and lastly, the person who inspires you to strive better to be a better person, a better being, a better Christian.

I realized, he chose a different path than mine. We had differences we never had the chance to work things out, things we never had the chance to talk about, and a love we never had the chance to share. He chose his own path, and I'm left with no choice than to take the opposite path. I guess I am bitter in a way, but I think it's more of I don't still get to understand why it happened, and I just want to get over this stage and get a life of my own, not thinking about him and how he is.

God has plans. I keep on telling that to myself. I just hope this time, things will be better for me, things will be different. I am letting go. Just like you wanted me to, just like you wished I never hoped for anything. I want to stop torturing myself. It will still be painful, the process, but I know, it will be worth it. I want to say, for the last time, I love you J. I do. And I'll always will. But it's time. You chose her, you chose a different path. It's time I go with mine.

Epekto ng pagkajologs at walang tulog.

I have to admit, when I saw the trailers in ABS, I knew it would be such a craze, a big hit, and a good one. It started late nights, then when I was about to watch, was moved before 6PM. Cruel, right? Very much indeed. I tried my best to get hold of a DVD copy of the Korean version with subtitles in English, ALAS, I did. Thanks to my ever loving bestfriend. We did find a very good copy. I was so eager to watch, because I have missed a lot. And, after watching for 1 and a half days. Literally, from 11:30PM of Saturday, July 11, to July 13, 2009 at 5:30AM, with only 4 hour sleep. The break I had was peeing and bath. Rather than that, nothing. I ditched all my plans for Sunday. I just wanted to cut myself some slack and just do nothing. I wanted to separate myself, even for at least just this weekend. For me to rethink, reorganize, and reflect on everything. Apologies to my dearest God, because I didn't attend mass and missed the practice for Lord's day. I can't help it, the B...

Home.

Home by Reese Lansangan Verse I:  Oh my love  Did they tell you  Just how long a time  It took for me to get to you  And when the world  Said it's impossible  Said it's improbable  The chances of me finding you  Pre-chorus:  But nobody knows  How we go  When we're alone  It's like we're home  Chorus:  My bones are safe  And my heart can rest  Knowing it belongs to you  My world is changed  And it's cradled by  The comfort that is you  Ooh  Verse II:  Oh my love  My head is reeling  And I am running out of air  I need to breathe in  I didn't know  That it was possible  To put all that I am  In the palm of your hand  Now we're unstoppable  Pre-chorus:  But nobody knows  How we go  When we're alone  It's like we're home  Bridge:  But nobody knows...

Time Flew By.

I realized that I have not written anything here in forever, and it has been three years since my last note.  I couldn't believe that time flew by fast and that I have drank a cumulative amount of a whole bottle of wine today starting from lunch. I used to dislike wine, but here I am. I have officially drank 4 bottles of wine since May 23, 2020, a bottle of which I think I consumed that same night. Right now, I only have one and a half bottles left of wine, which means I either conserve wine or get myself two more bottles. Go figure what my choice would be.  So how am I? I think I'm better than where I was three years ago, but in some aspects, probably far worse. I have experienced so much the last three years, an emotional and verbal abusive relationship with the last relationship I posted here, started a good relationship with wine also, slowed down in terms of drinking habits, moved jobs, hated my dad more, missed him sometimes as well, lost both grandparents in my dad's...
