Back to basics

Hmmm... what?! I am a girl.. I like make-ups! From the most expensive to the cheapest. I been addicted to make-up labels such as Avon, Maybelline and etc. I loved the Nichido eyeliners, I have it in different colors. I have so many different lip glosses and lipsticks from Avon, lip balms from Skin Foods. Have tried the foundations and face powder of Maybelline and Face Shop. I have blushes of Careline. I have tried Ellana and Elegant Minerals mineral makeup.

But you know what? I have learned that no matter what brand, what makeup you choose to have, this will not make you a better person or have a fairer facial skin unless you really wash your face before you go to sleep and when you take a bath. Also, you need to moisturizers that are chemically compatible with your skin type. These are the regimen for clearer fairer facial skin. While the recipe for having a better personality is to have a purpose or to have something to look forward to everyday. Having your family close by and friends to talk to. Mingling with different types of people, exercising your ass off and being happy without any reasons at all. These things are crucial to better understanding of yourself. People need other people to grow because people criticizes one another and through these criticisms, shortcomings are met.

Our goals should not only be to have a beautiful face, to have a wonderful boyfriend/husband, be successful in work or to be famous but to really serve god, to please him in one way or another. What we need now are people who are willing to share what talent God has given them. As you can see around the world, people who dare to share their talents are the one who are successful as they are doing what they are meant to do. They really didn't expect to be wealthy but since they are doing what they love to do and what they are MEANT to do, they are successful.
So what I really am trying to say here is if you really want a nice body, a nice home, a nice car, a successful life... what you need to do is go back to basics which is to think on pleasing GOD. When you think this way, you will be less stressful and you will live happily as you'll have a different perspectives. And don't they say happy people are the ones who are really attractive and most successful on them all?

Quotes from Bob Ong books

PAG-IBIG
"Kung hindi mo mahal and isang tao, wag ka nang magpakita ng motibo para mahalin ka nya.."
"Lahat naman ng tao sumeseryoso pag tinamaan ng pagmamahal. Yun nga lang, hindi lahat matibay para sa temptasyon."
"Gamitin ang puso para alagaan ang taong malapit sayo. Gamitin ang utak para alagaan ang sarili mo."
"Huwag mong bitawan ang bagay na hindi mo kayang makitang hawak ng iba."
"Huwag mong hawakan kung alam mong bibitawan mo lang."
"Huwag na huwag ka hahawak kapag alam mong may hawak ka na."
"Parang elevator lang yan eh, bakit mo pagsisiksikan ung sarili mo kung walang pwesto para sayo. Eh meron naman hagdan, ayaw mo lang pansinin."
"Kung maghihintay ka nang lalandi sayo, walang mangyayari sa buhay mo… Dapat lumandi ka din."
"Pag may mahal ka at ayaw sayo, hayaan mo. Malay mo sa mga susunod na araw ayaw mo na din sa kanya, naunahan ka lang."
"Hiwalayan na kung di ka na masaya. Walang gamot sa tanga kundi pagkukusa."
"Pag hindi ka mahal ng mahal mo wag ka magreklamo. Kasi may mga tao rin na di mo mahal pero mahal ka.. Kaya quits lang."
"Bakit ba ayaw matulog ng mga bata sa tanghali? alam ba nilang pag natuto silang umibig e hindi na sila makakatulog kahit gusto nila?"
"Hindi lungkot o takot ang mahirap sa pag-iisa kundi ang pagtanggap na sa bilyon-bilyong tao sa mundo, wala man lang nakipaglaban upang makasama ka."
"Kung nagmahal ka ng taong di dapat at nasaktan ka, wag mong sisihin ang puso mo. Tumitibok lang yan para mag-supply ng dugo sa katawan mo. Ngayon, kung magaling ka sa anatomy at ang sisisihin mo naman ay ang hypothalamus mo na kumokontrol ng emotions mo, mali ka pa rin!
Bakit? Utang na loob! Wag mong isisi sa body organs mo ang mga sama ng loob mo sa buhay!
Tandaan mo: magiging masaya ka lang kung matututo kang tanggapin na hindi ang puso, utak, atay o bituka mo ang may kasalanan sa lahat ng nangyari sayo, kundi IKAW mismo!"
PAG-AARAL
"Mag-aral maigi. Kung titigil ka sa pag-aaral, manghihinayang ka pagtanda mo dahil hindi mo naranasan ang kakaibang ligayang dulot ng mga araw na walang pasok o suspendido ang klase o absent ang teacher. (Haaay, sarap!)."
"Nalaman kong marami palang libreng lecture sa mundo, ikaw ang gagawa ng syllabus. Maraming teacher sa labas ng eskuwelahan, desisyon mo kung kanino ka magpapaturo. Lahat tayo enrolled ngayon sa isang university, maraming subject na mahirap, pero dahil libre, ikaw ang talo kung nag-drop ka.
Isa-isa tayong ga-graduate, iba't-ibang paraan. tanging diploma ay ang mga alaala ng kung ano mang tulong o pagmamahal ang iniwan natin sa mundong pinangarap nating baguhin minsan..."
"Hikayatin mo lahat ng kakilala mo na magkaroon ng kahit isa man lang paboritong libro sa buhay nila. Dahil wala nang mas kawawa pa sa mga taong literado pero hindi nagbabasa."
"Dalawang dekada ka lang mag-aaral. kung 'di mo pagtityagaan, limang dekada ng kahirapan ang kapalit. sobrang lugi. kung alam lang 'yan ng mga kabataan, sa pananaw ko ehh walang
gugustuhing umiwas sa eskwela."
BUHAY (IN GENERAL)
"nalaman kong hindi final exam ang passing rate ng buhay. hindi ito multiple choice, identification, true or false, enumeration or fill-in-the-blanks na sinasagutan kundi essay na isinusulat araw-araw. Huhusgahan ito hindi base sa kung tama o mali ang sagot, kundi base sa kung may kabuluhan ang mga isinulat o wala. Allowed ang erasures."
"Kumain ka na ng siopao na may palamang pusa o maglakad sa bubog nang nakayapak, pero wag na wag kang susubok mag-drugs. Kung hindi mo kayang umiwas, humingi ka ng tulong sa mga magulang mo dahil alam nila kung saan ang mga murang supplier at hindi ka nila iisahan."
"Mangarap ka at abutin mo. Wag mong sisihin ang sira mong pamilya, palpak mong syota, pilay mong tuta, o mga lumilipad na ipis. Kung may pagkukulang sa'yo mga magulang mo, pwde kang manisi at maging rebelde. Tumigil ka sa pag-aaral, mag-asawa ka, mag-drugs ka, magpakulay ka ng buhok sa kili-kili. Sa banding huli, ikaw din ang biktima. Rebeldeng walang napatunayan at bait sa sarili."
"Tuparin ang mga pangarap. Obligasyon mo yan sa sarili mo. Kung gusto mo mang kumain ng balde-baldeng lupa para malagay ka sa Guinness Book of World Records at maipagmalaki ng bansa natin, sige lang. Nosi balasi.
Wag mong pansinin ang sasabihin ng mga taong susubok humarang sa'yo. Kung hindi nagsumikap ang mga scientist noon, hindi pa rin tayo dapat nakatira sa jupiter ngayon.
Pero hindi pa rin naman talaga tayo nakatira sa jupiter dahil nga hindi nagsumikap ang mga scientist noon. Kita mo yung moral lesson?"
"Nalaman kong habang lumalaki ka, maraming beses kang madadapa. Bumangon ka man ulit o hindi, magpapatuloy ang buhay, iikot ang mundo, at mauubos ang oras."
HALO-HALO
"Wag magmadali sa pag-aasawa. Tatlo, lima , sampung taon sa hinaharap, mag-iiba pa ang pamantayan mo at maiisip mong di pala tamang pumili ng kapareha dahil lang sa kaboses niya si Debbie Gibson o magaling mag-breakdance.
Totoong mas importante ang kalooban ng tao higit anuman. Sa paglipas ng panahon, maging ang mga crush ng bayan sa eskwelahan e nagmumukha ring pandesal. Maniwala ka."
"ayokong nasasanay sa mga bagay na pwede namang wala sa buhay ko."
"hinahanap mo nga ba ako o ang kawalan ko?"
"hindi dahil sa hindi mo naiintindihan ang isang bagay ay kasinungalingan na ito. at hindi lahat ng kaya mong intindihin ay katotohanan. "
"Sabi nila, sa kahit ano raw problema, isang tao lang ang makakatulong sa'yo - ang sarili mo. Tama sila. Isinuplong ako ng sarili ko. Kaya siguro namigay ng konsyensya ang Diyos, alam niyang hindi sa lahat ng oras e gumagana ang utak ng tao."
"Obligasyon kong maglayag, karapatan kong pumunta sa kung saan ko gusto, responsibilidad ko ang buhay ko."
"Masama akong tao, tulad mo, sa parehong paraan na mabuti kang tao, tulad ko."
"Mas mabuting mabigo sa paggawa ng isang bagay kesa magtagumpay sa paggawa ng wala."
"iba ang walang ginagawa sa gumagawa ng wala."
"iba ang informal gramar sa mali!!!"
" Para san ba ang cellphone na may camera? Kung kailangan sa buhay un, dapat matagal na kong patay."
"Pare, isa kang totoong tao at walang halong kasinungalingan. In English, FACT you, pare. Totoo ka. In English, FACT you!"

Just want to have fun.

There now my pc is infected by a virus because of downloading... Argh!!!! I just want to watch a movie! A movie from a source like youtube.. and now what they just infected my pc!!!! argh! this is really too much! Now instead of watching movie... I am scanning my pc for viruses.... worms... and most of all spywares... oh bummer!

Pressured....

Waaaaaaaaaa there are so many things to finish... so many things to do... so many deadlines... I dont know what to do... I want to cry... I want to laugh... I want to scream... then I want to shut up... Argh! life is really such a pain when you are so stressed out but so much fun when you are relaxed... Well! Life is really a contradicting force after all.

GF and BF

Well... well before I have a boyfriend and we had a relationship for 4 years. It was ok at first then it turned out sour. Maybe because I mature or maybe because we both change I dont know. Then one day he just left me without even saying goodbye, before I knew it he has another girlfriend. While me I have no idea what was coming until it hit me. I was totally devastated that it crushed me to the ground. I almost took my life because of it. But I have realized that I am more stronger than my problems.

Now, after 10 months, I can say that I have grown smarter, more mature and stronger than before. I am single but I am happy being one. I could say that I am more complete than before and I enjoyed life better. Though I am not really closing my door if someone will come along and accept me for what I am today.

I guess I will not bend to anyone unlees I am sure that the person will be my husband or we are engaged. haha...

Matchmaker... Fun or not?

Hmmm... I couldn't believe it! I started matching making my friends! This started yesterday when one of my friends ask if I could match him to someone and I did think of somebody to match him with... now I am chatting with an old officemate who is also looking for someone and I did just the same though I dont know what will be the reaction of my friend as she is currently sleeping today. Well... I gotta find out later cause I will call her at the office and ask if it is ok.


Argh! bummer and I dont even have a guy on my own! Where the heavens does my prince charming is hiding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!... I need you badly you know!? hahaha! Just joking!

In saying goodbye and having a closure.

Tonight by FM Static


I remember the times we spent together
on those drives
We had a million questionsall about our lives
and when we got to New York
everything felt right
I wish you were here with me
tonight

I remember the days we spent together
were not enough
and it used to feel like dreamin'
except we always woke up
Never thought not having you
here now would hurt so much

Tonight I've fallen and I can't get up
I need your loving hands to come and pick me up
And every night I miss you
I can just look upand know the stars are
holdin' you, holdin' you, holdin' you tonight

I remember the time you told me about when you were eight
And all those things you said that night that just couldn't wait
I remember the car you were last seen inand the games we would play
All the times we spilled our coffees and stayed out way too late
I remember the time you told me about your Jesus
and how not to look back even if no one believes us
When it hurt so bad sometimes
not having you here...

I sing,"Tonight I've fallen and I can't get up
I need your loving hands to come and pick me up
And every night I miss youI can just look up
and know the stars are
holdin' you, holdin' you, holdin' you tonight"

I sing,"Tonight I've fallen and I can't get up
I need your loving hands to come and pick me up
And every night I miss youI can just look up
and know the stars are
holdin' you, holdin' you, holdin' you tonight"

Realizations. Purpose. Journey.

Right now I am reading the purpose driven life and I have been thinking of one thing since then. It is not about living for yourself but living according to God's will.

It's so weird when I started reading it I felt goosebumps all over my body and I felt serene. It felt so right reading it this time. Yeah, you read it correctly... reading it this time. This is because there are so many times that I almost buy the book and even borrowed it from my aunt but never really read it. It triggered my headache, promise! So i stop reading it before I complete a whole page. But now, somehow I felt its so right, its so light to read and the good part is there are no headache at all.

I think the main lesson here is "there is always a time for everything". A time to be solemn. A time to be glad. A time to love and a time to heal our hearts. A time to make mistakes and a time to make amends.

I think this is what people need to learn... to take time and smell the roses. Sometimes we are so busy with our lives that we have complicated everything. We are so impatient to what will happen next that we try to fast forward eveything and yet in return we haven't got anything at all but bigger complications.... bigger problems. Then at the end of the day we realize that this is not what we want... this is not what we picture it to be. So we escape, we run and we pretend that we are happy. Then we become hollow... we become stiff... we become not contented... we become purposeless.

I guess what we all want is fulfillment not success nor fame. I guess this is where our journey starts... its in finding our purpose... in finding our truest passion.
