Random Gift

I really don't know why a friend gave me this just his morning. We are not even close. we barely talk, too.

But I still thank her for a random gift. An addition to my collection... STICKY NOTES! : )

Palancas from My Friends

Here’s a picture of the palancas my friends gave me. They are supposed to be given during retreat only and not during immersion like what we had last July. Nevertheless, I think palancas or good luck letters are expressions of how people such as my dearest friends care for me. 

Welcome to My World!

Here is a picture of my world! Wondering why I said “world”? What you can see are five boxes. Inside each speaks of me and tells something about my life. This will take quite longer which will cause me to post several continuations to prevent a very long post. So let’s start!

This is my mini- green box. This was originally a box of a wallet my father bought. He has this habit of putting aside things that are useless for him like this box. So found this in his drawer and got it knowing that this will only end up in the trash bin if he finds this first. I wrapped it with matching colored wrappers, green and blue green. Isn’t in cute?

Inside are wallet-size photos of me and my friends taken in Fuji Film and Picture City. The oldest of these was taken when I was still in Grade 5. The latest was just taken last August 23. (Someday, I will post these pictures in a closer view each and tell you when each was taken)

This pink and violet box was also originally a wallet box. My classmate, Kristah, gave me this one ordinary day. Guess what? I never knew there is such thing called “dream catcher”! Until now, I haven’t placed this near y bed. I might not be able to dream of good stuff even though its purpose is just to prevent me from having nightmares. (Every night I look forward to having nice and memorable dreams. Unfortunately, I would forget them the moment I wake up.)

This blue box is a box for a CD my father bought. I first saw it when I was scavenging for scraps that might be of use for any projects I might have this school year. The moment I saw it, I never hesitated to keep it in my secret corner in the room. Its emo-type design really caught my attention. So its purpose now is a case for my sticky notes. I am fond of collecting sticky notes or post its. But as of now, I only have a few. (Looking forward for some more sticky notes as gifts!)

This last one is my green box. It keeps most of my life’s stories, history, legends and tales. No one has actually opened this box while knowing the history of each object placed in it. The moment you open it, you might have an instant conclusion of who I am… the real me.

So just let it remain closed. I am still in the decision mode whether or not I will tell you about the things inside my green box. Honestly, most people know me 50% (or even less) only.

One last thing; one obvious (If you are observant) thing about me is that my favorite color is green… not the vivid one but the various shades of it such as yellow green, mint green, pastel green, blue green and many more!

1st of July

 What a perfect beginning of the month! After a very frustrating June ( though it is my birth month), I had a taste of a relaxing and positive first-day-of-July.

I was silent upon entering the classroom and as I stepped inside, though hurriedly, I felt something that triggered me. Something that gave a sign of an occurence of something I have been looking for... something I've been longing for.

And yes... yes it did happen! The thing I've been waiting for has finally come. I've been prolonging this agony of waiting for things to happen. But then, all the sorrow just vanished away like dust blown by wind. With a simple step forward... an approach, everything changed. I began to smile. My heart became so light that I felt like I was floating on air due to an undescribable bliss. I remember the days when the chance was right in front of me, yet I ignored it, I waited for it to fade.


Wonderful things have been happening throughout the morning. And then strikes the afternoon I have been waiting forward. The climax of the day has occured. I can't find the words to describe what I was feeling. My heart seemeed so heavy but suddenly lightens. What I know was that, that day was one of the many days of my life that I will never ever forget. That day, for others may not be, was perfect for me.
