1. Love is strange but, at the same time, kind. It may bring your fears or leave them all behind.

    I have spoken about Love before and it is never a tiresome subject to speak of for there is always something new in Love to discover and unearth; may it be through something or someone. Love has always inspired me to do the things I have dreamed of doing in life, equating to pure bliss and successes. And for the past few years, aside from my family and friends, Love always came in all things material. But not at present.

    It has been 5 years, to be exact, since I have felt this way and I am more than happy that it is You who brings me much love and joy. You are so different from all the other guys I have met and I love how we see and decide on things together, with much faith and belief. You are not a boy. You are a man, a man with a pure mind and heart of gold. Thank you for never giving up and for thinking of things positively. You are a gem and I will keep you as long as God and yourself permit.

    Thank you for reminding me how great it feels to be in love again. Ti Voglio Molto Bene!

    What’s on my mind?
This morning, my family and I were so thrilled that Jessica Sanchez made it through the top 2 and a finalist for this season’s American Idol. I am not really a fan of the show but I am a fan of the singer. 
In awhile, my mom, my sister, and I are going thrift shopping together (again). Everything here is so cheap, including the restaurants. Can I just stay here forever?
And next week is exciting for my best friend in America is arriving and it’s going to be one whole big reunion again! Also, the diving experience is going to happen and hopefully, swimming with the whales again (which reminds me, I have yet to upload pictures of the swimming with the whales, showering under the waterfalls, and the breakfast morning with friends).
Oh boy. I can’t believe this is my last summer before graduation, and I, too, can’t believe summer is coming to an end. Honestly, this has been the most beautiful summer I have ever had in my life. The experiences I had to go through, tough and easy, before experiencing such pure bliss was worth it for I have dreamt that one day I will be nothing but only happiness. And dreams do come true because I have experienced nothing but this happiness I have been feeling so far, including true love =)
Sending lots of love and light on your way x

    Yesterday was beautiful and full of surprises! Spent the night with very close friends who, relating to my recent reblogged post, surprised me with flying lanterns and many more. The night was spent by playing beer pong, catching up, and a lot of laughter. And before the clock stroke 12, they let out the hidden lanterns and we lit them all up together. Also, I baked my own (birthday) cake for the very first time with the help of my tita! It is a Red Velvet cake, decorated with macarons and edible hearts. I love it, really. It is so me. And the night of my birthday, I treated my barkada out for dinner at Kri and had dessert after at Gabby’s Bistro. When I got home, I got another surprise by my friends who wrote very sweet messages in a bottle. Something I never expected. 

    I would hate to brag but I think 2012 loves me as much as I love it. Received many countless blessings and love. Plus, this is the year everyone has been waiting for because it is this year that the Budapest/Italy/Euro trip (God willing) is going to happen, including Graduation! I really am excited.

    I have the best family, friends, and God. And you question my happiness :)

  7. Anonymous asked: what's the name of your family beach? it's really private? or somewhat a business?

    we just named it after our family name. and yes, it is really private. only family members use it and family guests, as well.

     
  8. “I’ll set you free”, said the Truth.

    And it did.

    I realized that facing the truth is never easy for it is something worth fighting for. And sometimes, one can’t face the truth alone because they just can’t; it’s like eating a one shelled macaron unsatisfying one’s sweet-tooth craving. I have been carrying this light but heavy burden on my chest for a long period of time with questions unanswered and I thought they were all school related. But not quite. To think such burden took years to solve and only one person could help me solve it. And then later on I realize that I am just one of the instruments of a certain plan, waiting for my positive reply. How cray cray is that?

    And the truth… it scares you, doesn’t it? Because it is beating the freak out of me at this very moment; making my stomach hurl every time I face it. Nonetheless, I continuously face it for I believe in it so much and I know that the outcome will be right. It always has been.Taking a leap of Faith.

    Are our feelings mutual?

     
  9. Anonymous asked: you have a family beach? :O

    My fins gained a few pounds and so did I. Nonetheless, do I make a fair mermaid? :) Couldn&#8217;t help but edit this.
