It has been temporarily out of my system  for the last 10 months. Yes, I'm busy with Med School stuff but I also intended not to write anything. As in WALA. I came to a point na AYAW KO NA, and I tried to give up this blog together with my other social networks in the worldwideweb. Pero syempre, hinayaan ko lang. Kunwari I don't care anymore -- and I have more important things to attend to. :wassat:

---

I have gone through lots of ups and downs, I cried (a lot?) but I laugh often. I tried not to write, especially in my journal (not just in this blog) to see if it will work for me (self-reflections + prayers lang). Little did I know, kulang na pala talaga yung usual therapy ko. I find myself more irritable, more sensitive and as if I don't understand myself anymore. :ermm:

---

For the last few weeks, I started planning on revamping my site (as well as 'the other sites'). :happy: I even planned on shifting to another domain name -- but my budget did not allow me to get a new one right now. :pinch: I have lots of design plans again -- updating and inspiring myself while browsing through my favorite designers. It is just like finding the perfect notebook -- mas nakakainspire kasi lalo magsulat lalo pag cute ang notebook mo :blush: hehe! I also cleaned this up, para makapag start ulit ng panibagong set ng mga kwento (see my old posts here). Yey! I'm ready to start again! :happy:

There are times that I cannot sleep well at night because a lot of ideas come out and keep bugging me. I have several attempts but I would rather go to sleep and ignore them. I came to a point that I cannot take it anymore. I need to do something about it. Not just plans written on a paper. Then I started to feel this -- the need to write and to share my stories. This is just to complete the cycle of my so called 'self therapy'. I just need an outlet -- maybe one liners on my Twitter were not enough :unsure: I'm serious about this right now, I won't promise how often I will update but for sure I will be more visible this time :wink:

---

I need to sleep already because I have to read a lot tomorrow for next week's exams!!! :sick: '

Til then! :cool:

Hey! :happy: I'm still alive. :lol: Sorry for not posting for more than 10 months. :pinch:  I'm kinda busy with lots of Med School stuff that is why I was not able to update this (I still have other  reasons, but I would rather tell you that -- after one week *hopefully*).

For now, I'll leave you stuff full of sweetness! :blush:

this is a repost from bes goy! :whistle:

Nakakatuwa ang baby ko… Marunong na siyang tumawa at ngumiti, Kahit anong sabihin mo, tatawa siya. As in kahit ano. Bulaga!… Tatawa siya. Belat!... Tatawa siya. Ang palot mo!... Tatawa siya Panget si Mommy!... Tatawa siya. Nasusunog bahay naten! … Tatawa siya. Pogi si Daddy… ayun, iiyak na siya. Hehe. Ang galing ng mga baby ano? Parang may magic sila. Lahat kaya nilang baguhin… Ang gabi, kaya nilang gawing umaga… Ang mommy niya na ang interest at hobby ay sleeping---Gising sa madaling araw. Ang kuripot na daddy na ang sinusuot na sapatos sa trabaho ngayon, ay siya ring sapatos nung nagaaral pa (favorite daw niya)--- Suki na ngayon ng ATM sa lahat ng sulok ng Lipa at kilala na ng mga cashier sa SM at Mercury Drugs. Ang magkaaway, nagbabati. Ang ulong mainit, lumalamig. Ang nakasimangot, ngumingiti Ang malungkot, sumasaya Ang mataba, pumapayat Ang pilay, nakakalakad… Ang nakakapagtaka… Tatawa at ngingiti lang sila. Solve na. Ganito rin kaya ako noong baby ako? Kailan kaya ako nagbago? Kailan kaya ako bumitaw? Nalunod na nga ba ako sa mundo ng mga "adults"? Magaral, magtrabaho, magretiro, mamatay. Lahat pinagduduhan ko... Galit ako sa maraming bagay... Hindi na ako nanonood ng Cartoons, TV Patrol na ngayon... Puro nakawan, patayan, aksidente, tsismis, anomalya sa gobyerno... ang good news lang na narinig ko ay gumawa tayo pinakamalaking Espasol at Ensaymada.. Woohooo!!! I'm so proud of you! Ang saya maging adult. Kailan kaya ako yayaman at makakabili ng bagong sapatos? Kagabi tinitigan ko ang anak ko. Mahimbing na natutulog, nakangiti, nanaginip daw siya ng maraming gatas. Napangiti na rin ako… Bigla kong naisip, ganito siguro ako titigan ni Lord. Siguro hanggang ngayon, aliw na aliw pa rin siya sa akin. Punong puno ng pagmamahal, pangarap at pagasa. Siguro sa tingin Niya, ako pa rin ang sanggol na kaligayahan Niya. Ang Kanyang pambato, ang kanyang Champion, ang Kanyang anak. At naisip ko na ang Magic ng mga baby... Pinapaalala nila na minsan naging baby din tayo, Na minsan naging kaligayahan tayo ng mga taong nakakakita sa atin. Na minsan naging maligaya ka sa lahat ng taong nakikita mo. Na minsan punong puno tayo ng pangarap. Na minsan lahat ng bagay maganda, masaya, lahat parang masarap isubo. Na minsan lahat ng bagay posible. Na minsan mahilig kang manood ng cartoons. Na minsan lahat ng espasol at ensaymada ay malaki. Na minsan masarap matulog nang nakangiti. Na walang nagbago… sanggol ka pa rin, nakalimutan mo lang. Tumawa, ngumiti, mangarap, baguhin ang mundo… BEYBEH!
