closing time

ADVANCE MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE!

LIVE LIKE A DREAMER

have you guessed what's that name and link for? if you've been following me on twitter you've probably guessed correctly! :)

yes, that's the name and the link for my new blog!

i know this might be a little sudden that i decided to create a new blog. i didn't even know that i have the courage to create a new one after all the posts i made and after all i've been through with this blog (chos!) though i admit i've been having thoughts since i changed my blog name from yougotsomestyle to wallofmemoriesandstyle just a few months ago, but still, it's NOT an easy decision for me to work that thought. really.

the reasons why i wanted to make a new blog is that..

1) i want a new so-called 'concept' for my blog (i already have a little idea but just don't expect too much, it may be more or less the same);

2) i want a new name for my blog (don't want to create a stub blog, it makes things complicated for me and.. refer to my reason above and below);

3) due to some technical problems that are way beyond my capacity to solve (the broken photo links from my posts before? yes, that's it!) it was actually my fault because i deleted my stub blog which holds the links to my photos. i've been searching on how to fix it but i've found none so my solution is to start from scratch. if you're wondering why i would rather start from the beginning after almost two years than to contiue, well i guess, i'm that complicated and OC.

since this blog holds a very special place in my heart, i've decided that i won't delete this but i'll just keep it as a remembrance to my early days of blogging and how i grew up as a person for the last 19 months. i'll probably update this with 'links' to my new blog to keep my followers posted and to keep this blog dormant, if not inactive.

to all my followers/readers, really had fun blogging with you! thanks for all the comments and thanks for sticking up with me for 1 year and 7 months!

CIAO!

my gifts were wrapped in PJs

today's my birthday!

my friends surprised me an hour before my birthday! they sang How To Love outside my room with a candle-lit ube cake. i didn't hear them because i was using my earphones while listening to some music. my mom had to use a key to open the door so that they can reveal themselves to the oblivious me. (i'm so sorry about that friendsss. hahahaha!) i was really surprised and touched because i didn't expect them to come and surprise me due to the heavy rain + lightning! plus plus, the cutest part about them: they were all wearing sleepwear/pyjamas! :)

the 'rents decided that we'll eat at MB's Tavern. we stayed for only an hour because the store actually closes at 12 midnight (they had to extend 30 minutes more so that we can finish our food. thank you to that patient waitress!) we then went back home + the friends slept over.

THANK YOU 'RENTS and FRIENDS!!

Coldplay - Fix You

*the song has nothing to do with my feelings while making this post.. it was the song that was currently playing while they were singing outside my room. :D

facts about this and that

(fact: sometimes i'm shy/bold/unpredictable/insecure/confident/vulnerable/straightforward/all at once.)

today's Saturday! we actually have classes today (bummer!) but i'm effin' tired to step out of our house. ha! so before i go to school for my next class (which is approximately 4 hours from now), i'll take time to make a post about something out of the blue. here it goes..

fact: this blog is not really my personal personal blog (i mean, the private kind.) its not that the posts i made were not about who i really am. in fact, its really about my life, my interests, about me, or should i say: the superficial me that doesn't involve any strong emotions.

fact: if none of the people i know personally have known about this blog, i wouldn't mind blabbing everything i feel in here and i wouldn't have created another blog (where no one really knows me) just for my rants/blabs.

fact: because i know strangers won't read too long posts, but if they do, i know they won't mind whatever i'll post, and if they do mind, its not a big deal hearing what strangers have to say about me.. they're just strangers that i don't have any attachments with and the only thing thay can do is cyber slap me if they don't like or if they are so fed up with my rants posts.

fact: if i'll be talking about convenience + privacy, i doubt a person or two have dropped by on that blog. btw, if its still not obvious, i manage that blog anonymously.

as what most bloggers say: blog to EXPRESS, not to impress. so starting from now on (actually i've already started weeks ago), i won't mind posting semi-personal posts, but i'll still keep my other blog in case some of my rants posts will be too personal for me to post it here. :)

P.S. here's a song that my friends and i currently love to play on repeat. have fun listening!

Lil Wayne - How to Love

photos are inspired by Lea. (epic fail! hahaha!)

what do i want to share today?

quotes that i've read from Paulo Coelho's book, Like a Flowing River..

by Mitsuo Aida:

if tomatoes wanted to be melons,

they would look completely ridiculous.

i am always amazed

that so many people are concerned

with wanting to be what they are not;

what's the point of making yourself look ridiculous?

you don't always have to pretend to be strong,

there's no need to prove all the time that everything is going well,

you shouldn't be concerned about what other people are thinking,

cry if you need to,

it's good to cry out all your tears

(because only then will you be able to smile again).

by Jaime Cohen:

''we are such in a hurry to grow up, and then we long for our lost childhood. we make ourselves ill earning money, and then spend all our money getting well again. we think so much about the future that we neglect the present, and thus experience neither the present not the future. we live as if we were never going to die, and die as if we had never lived.''

one wednesday morning

(all photos are from people i follow on tumblr.)

i was alone in the house.

i felt low.

i turned my laptop on.

i found the photos above.

kaboom!

i'm ALIVE. :)

i'm trying to really live life.. like, love and embrace whatever/everything life throws at me.

indeed, that thinking and those photos above made my day better (if not great.)

what actually happened today was.. i lost my money. i forgot to get my wallet from my bag before i went on duty in the hospital (we leave our bags in a classroom, a building away from the hospital.) when i had my wallet 4 hours later, i found out that 3/4 of my money was stolen. then.. i think i don't have to say more, just insert ''that thinking'' here. hehe.

its the biggest amount i've lost so far which will be enough of a reason (plus, there are a lot of requirements due tom) for me to be sad and be angry to whoever did it, but.. my mind's not cooperating! ha! thank god! :)

yea, this is it! i can feel it! this is optimism! HAHAHA.

P.S. hope you're also having this kind of feeling right at this very moment. ciao!
