I found this nifty YouTube video with 1980s cartoons... Hay! I miss my childhood! My favorite was Ghostbusters and I begged my Mommy to buy me a Marshmallow Man action figure and got one from "Santa Claus" one Christmas! :D

A Photograph
After I blogged that I don't have a photo of my dad, my aunt digged up her albums and tried to look for one Christmas photo of me and my family, and the dollhouse my dad made for me and my sister. That's the photo above. I thought it would make me happy. For a time, it did (like for five minutes). But as I looked at it last night, it made me cry. I cried for more than an hour and I hated myself for it. It seemed like I was stuck in a bad melodramatic movie. Nonetheless, I'm kinda glad I now have a proof that I did have a dad, and a doll house. BTW, I was a cute kid, no? Guess which one I am. And guess which one is my cousin who threw a tantrum to be included in our family's uber exclusive, once in a lifetime family photo. :D (Note: The doll house is in actual photo but not on this one because this is just a photo of the photo. :P)
Dieting For Vanity's Sake
Yeah, yeah, yeah... been starving myself since the other day. Tuesday I didn't eat ANYTHING for dinner except some crackers and two pieces of oatmeal cookies. Today I ate tocino and a quarter cup of rice for lunch, luglug for dinner (at 5 pm!), and some slices of wheat bread. WHY YOU ASK?! Because I'm vain! I'm dieting so I could but new clothes and fit them well. And yeah, I think it's time to find a new boy. And boys nowadays are pretty much attracted to the thin types... so yeah, I'm dieting for them too. I am LOL'ing at myself now coz I know that clothes and boys won't really make me a better person, or happier. But yeah, I'm dieting coz I want them boys and clothes. :P I have resolved, however, not to starve myself. Rather, I'll eat but eat only healthy food and lessen consumption of indulgences such as chocolate, desserts, coffee, and chichirya. So here's to me trying to lose weight yet again... and this time it's for clothes and boys!
My Choice
There comes a time in your life when someone or something gives you hope, makes you believe in things and possibilities. But things don't always work out the way you want them to, not even when you work hard for it, not even when circumstances change favorably, because people are people. People change. Sometimes when success is within reach, people get selfish, priorities changes, loyalties don't matter, hard work does not count. Just when you think everything is starting to fall into its right place, and your hard work is starting to pay off, the very core, the foundation on which you stand on starts to crumble. And you are left with two choices, forget your ideals and loyalties, forget the past and move on with what will lead you to succeed even if you hurt people along the way, or get left behind. I chose to get left behind because these are the things I value: loyalty, hard work, honesty, and respect. I am not to say I chose the right thing, but although it's painful not to enjoy the fruits of my hard work, I am at peace with my choice. It's frustrating, disappointing to believe in something,…
I Miss Him… Or It
It's been months... almost two months. We've been friends since then. But I miss him. Or maybe I miss what we had... having that someone who is always there. I know we were never physically with each other, but there was something across the miles through messages, chats, calls, and even the moments we were just thinking of each other that was comforting. And it's not just him making lambing or trying to make pa-cute. I miss the thought of being with someone, taking care of someone, of the idea that I matter to someone, that somebody listens and understands what I say and do, and even those I don't say and do. Maybe I am in love with love, maybe I just need that somebody to be there with me, maybe... It's all so confusing. There are times when I am happy, when I am at peace with what happened, fully accepting that what happened had to happen, that what we had was simply going nowhere. But then there are times, such as now, when I feel sad and lonely, when I reminisce and wish I could have it all again. I don't know what I really miss, need,…
