"The Bible’s reference to the “four corners of the earth” need not mean that the world is flat.
It could be a tetrahedron."
how cute! a tetrahedron earth... the molecular geometry of methane :p

que sera... sera... whatever will be, will be...
kahit pa sabihin mong hindi mangyayari sayo ang isang bagay, kung tinadhana, mangyayari at mangyayari sa iyo. kahit pa sabihin mong hinding hindi ka na magpapagupit, kung gusto ni tadhanang umikli ang buhok mo, ang buhok mo pa mismo ang hahanap ng paraan upang mapalapit sa gunting o mapalapit sa apoy na susunog sa buhok mo. suicidal lang haha. ang problema, hindi ko alam kung saan nakatira si tadhana kaya di ko matanong kung anong balak niya sa buhay ko. kahit papaano naman medyo nagpaparamdam siya at sinasabing, "go lang, ituloy mo lang yang ginagawa mo." sana lang hindi niya ako bulabugin after 5 years at biglang sabihing, "hindi naman yan ang sinabi ko sayo eh." hay nako... sana tama pa ang ginagawa ko...

marunong nako magdrawing ng mata! XD

wake up
LSS ako ng "i've got a feeling... that tonight's gonna be a good night... that tonight's gonna be a good night..."
nalulungkot pa rin ako sa nangyari sa pilipinas dahil sa bagyo. nakakagulat na nangyari ito sa metro manila. hindi talaga ako natutuwa kapag sinasabi ng mga tao na nangyayari ito dahil madaming makasalanan at kailangang linisin ang mundo. gunun kasi ang nangyari nung panahon ni noah diba. hay... ang lungkot.
madaming nasalanta na hindi naman sinners. madaming mga corrupt na kumportable sa kanilang mga tahanan. kung nangyayari ito bilang kaparusahan sa mga kasalanan ng pilipinas, bakit dinadamay lahat?
ayokong maniwalang judgement ang nangyari ngayon. it's a wake up call. disaster happens. it just so happened that it occured in metro manila. properties were destroyed. celebrities got affected. houses and cars of well off families were damaged. it's definitely news worthy since the population density of metro manila is probably the highest in luzon. disaster can happen anywere at to anyone. we should wake up. wake up!
nalulungkot ako kasi hindi ako makatulong kasi may sarili akong problema kagabi. nalulungkot ako kasi hindi ako nakauwi para tumulong sa bahay. nalulungkot ako kasi wala ako sa birthday ng kapatid ko. nalulungkot ako kasi madaming tao ang namomroblema rin.
ayoko nang maulit to... sana hindi na maulit. sana hindi na bumaha ulit ng ganito kalala. sana lahat ng tao magtulong tulong. sana bukas ok na... back to normal na.
sobrang grateful akong kahit masama ang situation, safe pa rin ang mga mahal ko sa buhay. material na bagay lang yan. madaling palitan. although hindi madaling makagawa ng pera, ang buhay hindi na mapapalitan. kaya natutuwa akong lahat ng nababalitaan kong mga kaibigan, kahit malulungkot ang mga kuwento, ligtas pa rin.
hindi ko alam kung ano ang lesson for the day. basta ang word of the day last saturday ay "delubyo" haha napaka appropriate ^_^
the rain has stopped but there are still people who can't reach their homes due to the flood, and some who are stranded inside their homes due to the flood. oh how powerful the floods are. i pray that things would go back to normal. i pray that the flood would disappear. i pray that people get rescued. i pray that a disaster like this won't happen again.

hmm
kung ginagawa ng isang tao ang isang bagay dahil required siya, paano mo malalaman kung napipilitan lang siya o bukal talaga sa loob ang ginagawa niya? wala lang... insecure lang :p
alam ko namang hindi lahat ng tao kasing vocal ko. ako kasi kung ayaw ko, either inaannounce ko or pinapa-obvious kong ayaw ko. kaya as much as possible, ginagawa ko lang yung mga bagay na gusto ko. makes sense? haha. i'm such a happy person.
ayokong napipilitan. so ayokong napipilitan ang mga tao sa paligid ko. wala lang. naisip ko lang hehehe

decisions
there's a neurological explanation for everything. i stumbled upon this blog: boing boing. so cute ^_^
http://www.boingboing.net/2009/09/08/how-we-decide-mind-b.html
the most important thing you'd ever learn, you learn from Goldilocks. not too much, not too little, just right. making good decisions involves the balance between logic and emotion. think about it, but don't over think. think about consequences but don't explain yourself, it messes everything up.
i think that's my problem. i over think. i keep on finding reasons, trying to explain myself and finding logic in everything that i do. i did this because of that and because of that i'm doing this. oh great. and everything can be written in a manual. i don't think it's even necessary. i'm happy where i am. i'm grateful for what i have. i don't really have much. it doesn't seem that i'm moving forward, but i am. i'm not there yet but i would be, soon. hopefully in the next 3 years or else i might resort to another life altering decision, which might be too late. for now, i'm trying to live and enjoy every moment of it even if not everyone could relate or would agree.
i didn't take the chemistry board exam because i don't want to be a chemist. i would love to have the title. it would really be logical if i did but i didn't. i can't explain why, i just know in my heart that it's not the right place for me. ayaw sa akin ng chem. so bakit ko pipilitin ang sarili ko sa isang lugar kung saan hindi ako welcome. i'd rather be happy doing what i love than force myself into something that doesn't bring me joy.
may iba pakong life changing decisions na ginawa. adik lang. pinasabog ko lang naman ang buhay ko, at nagbabagong buhay nako ngayon. unti-unti.
don't think too much, but don't let your emotions get in the way ~_^

naalala ko lang, perfect timing ang aking life altering decision dahil yun ang linggong nagsimula ang aking weekend classes. perfect timing. destiny? hehe
LSS pa rin ako ng closing song mula sa worship service kanina. today's message was so emotional. simula pa lang umiiyak na ako. i really felt the holy spirit fill the room, and it took over me. di nako makatigil umiyak. ang dami ko kasing nangyayari sa buhay ko ngayon na nakakaoverwhelm. i really feel that i won't be sane if i did not have faith. ngayon ibang klaseng joy yung hinahanap ko. something that's sustained by the Lord. kulang pa ako nito. it's easy to say that i want to trust the Lord completely but to actually be that person is a different story. sabi nga ng ibang friends ko, skeptic ako. i use too much logic. i'm too practical. pero unti-unti, natututo naman ako. hindi ko na pinoproblema ang hindi kailangan problemahin. kaya nga nandiyan si Lord para pagtawanan ka pag may bloopers ka para hindi ka mukhang tangang tumatawa mag-isa :p haha saya! at pag tapos ng interview may katangahan kang ginawa, may makakausap ka agad. everyday gets easier kahit napepredict kong dadami pa lalo ang challenges. natutuwa lang ako ngayon. energized na ulit for the next week XD
i should learn to trust. stop procrastinating. stop fearing what's ahead. di ko naman talaga alam kung anong nag-aantay sa akin eh. trust lang talaga. at wag na magpuyat! waaa.... disiplinaaaaa~ anuba... haha. aja!
i was supposed to write how religion is the opium of the masses. it still is but, well, kung sa akin lang, masarap ma-high! wala namang masamang health effects ang pag worship kay Lord ^_^ it's a great feeling and i hope everyone would try it. wag lang masyadong magpapadala sa emotions haha. whee!

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/faith
i will never forget in high school, during one of the bible studies i attended at the creek in first year, the topic was faith. we were asked what faith was. that's pretty easy. it's believing in something without needing any proof. it's an easy word to define but in reality, it's a hard concept to grasp. i mean, how can you believe in something that logic could not explain?
then we were asked, "what is the opposite of faith?"
*awkward moment of silence*
i answered, "unfaithful?" hahaha funny... but the right answer is fear. if you have faith, then you have nothing to fear.
“Faith is not belief without proof, but trust without reservation.”
http://thinkexist.com/quotes/with/keyword/faith/
i have so much more to learn about faith, trust and love. i want to learn how to let go of all my fears and trust that eventually everything would be just as He planned it to be. it's a big challenge especially for a control freak like me. kasalanan kasi ng Sims. i'm so good at setting up virtual lives for my characters that i forget that i'm not in a virtual game and that i'm not the one who actually controls my life. i am just an instrument. i'm not the owner of myself.
and yet i'm still scared coz i'm back to square one. i know that there's a big possibility that i won't be a great success in the fashion industry; i don't really have the artistic talent and the right contacts needed to be the next fashion czar of asia; but i still want to take the risk. it looks like one gigantic katangahan. if you were in my shoes, you know that this is the right path just because you've ran out of options XD
fashion is my passion. but as much as possible i wanted to stay away from the industry. trekking this path would mean going against my ideals with regards to capitalism. grabe, gusto kong maging kapitalista... anubatoooooo... ewan... that's why i'm scared. this is something new and something i'm not confident with.
