A Normal Girl's Crown

(c) Jari San Miguel - she also fixed and styled my hair in this photo.

It was just late last year when I decided to mess with my virgin hair. I remember how I was always scared when someone would do something with my hair even a haircut is quite scary for me. Never really had the perfect silky long hair growing up, so I did not pay much attention on it. I don't even brush or fix it when I go out, I like thinking that my hair is low maintenance but then again there's nothing good to maintain. (haha!) I would always have the mid-length messy haircut so it would be easy for me, though it has always been my dream to have a long curly hair. (feeling princess) It was really a struggle for me to grow a long hair cause it takes a while and I don't have the patience for it.Some girls are lucky that their hair grow faster than others, apparently I am on the unlucky group. Once I feel like it's out of shape  and that I am bored with it I would go and let someone cut it. A new haircut is equals a big make-over. Then, I discovered that cutting is not the only option on earth. After years of training (hahaha!) the long wait is over I finally gained the strength to go through  treatments and let my hair absorb some chemicals. (*claps conquered a fear) I was encouraged by my sister and a friend that said "when it comes to hair go lang, kahit ano sige" . It is actually quite liberating and addictive once you start experimenting with it. I've had it cellophaned, colored and bleached.

Anyways, I am just blogging about this cause I am wondering what to do next with my hair. I am thinking of getting a new color or bleaching the ends more to emphasize the ombre effect that I have right now and maybe have it dip-dyed as well. Hopefully, I can decide sooner. Oh, by the way experimenting helped me grow my hair longer cause I didn't have to cut and cut and cut it every time I get bored with it. :)

Perfect Guy

Oh my, sorry for this solid fan girl/ daydreamer post but here it goes. 

I came across this photo of my forever crush Elmo Magalona on facebook and

I just couldn't stop myself from sharing that this photo pretty much sums up

who my dream guy is huhu... and it's not just because it's Elmo on the photo. 

It's the..

(1) The cute little dog. -because I love dogs and it would really make me happy if  "he" does as well. I think guys that are good with pets are sensitive and caring.

(2) The guitar.- doesn't it make him look so sexy playing his instrument and just get lost in his music. Also, the "when guys write/sing a song for you" doesn't it make you feel like a princess and besides it makes you immortal when someone writes a song about you. (at least that's how I see it)

(3) The Sando.- I really have a "thing" for guys who can pull off the "sando look". Claps for them Oo nabibighani ako sa lalaking naka-sando at kering keri niya. :)

(4) Those buff arms.- I just want those arms to hug me for the rest of my life. 

(5) His expression.- I don't know why but I feel like the expression on his face says a lot about his humor and attitude. 

Sorry na, pero kailangan ko lang talagang ilahad tong nararamdaman ko eh.

It made me realize that the perfect guy do exist. haha! charot! :)

Walk Away

It's 4am

Wrote this when I was under the influence of probably one of the weirdest morning I had. 

3 BULLETS

 Something I wrote. I was actually on a pedicab when the idea came out of blue and I just had to pull a pen and my notebook out. Also, I am meeting up with my friend (Arielle) later to make a short plot for this and maybe shoot something out of it. I am praying that it pushes through before our sem-break ends. :)

Tell me why

This State of Falling is a Struggle

I told you I fancy words. I believe in their magic. 

I promised myself that I will never stop writing until I am out of words and feelings are gone. 

Though maybe I suck on it but still it's just something I want to do. It makes me feel at ease cause I am in my own world. :)

*used my signature stamp. yeah that's my name brought to you by my ugly handwriting. :)

Signs

I'm not good with saying what I feel and think. So most of the time I end up writing short rhymes. This is just one of them. :) 

A poem by Manny and Me

Since I was bored during our 6-9 class I decided to play and write a poem with my blockmate all he had to do was rhyme with whatever I wrote down. :) Here's the photo of our draft. :)

Me:

Manny:

Close your eyes

and feel my thighs.

Squeeze in closer

so I can feel your rooster.

Now i'm out of my mind

because your love I can't find.

Are we doing it right?

Can you fly my kite?

Take me higher until I am out of sight

and let me be blinded by your light.

This feeling I can't fight.

Your apple I want to bite.

Tempted like Eve.

You're taken from my rib.

Don't you think that's bullshit?

---THE END---

btw, that's Manny he did my hair that day. *claps for his messy work. :)

Bad Habits.Good times.

"That maybe after all of these are gone everyone we resent will vanish into thin air. Then we'll be thankful cause this night happened for these are the good times our bad habits saved us."

My World

The Sad Story

Hear me say a story of a real tale.

Once upon a time,

While they’re chasing rainbows

She was here chasing flames,

Wishing the world would care.

She was here watching

Her world turn its back on her,

again and again.

But there’s no one to blame

Cause every word she claims

Makes them cry in pain

When every step she takes,

leaves a trail of mistake.

Someone wake sleeping beauty up

Her world ain’t real.

Stop her from believing this

fake fairy tale dream.

Faith In Love is Restored

To start off, I am sorry if I am being such a fan girl here. It's just that I can't explain this to myself either why I am acting like you know. :) Anyways, I am only going to blog about this because I want to be reminded of this day (08-19-2012, Sunday) forevaaah. 

So yeah, I've been tweeting @Superelmo (Elmo Magalona) cause I have a severe crush on him. It's not like I'm the only one. haha! (aminin nio na bet nio din cia) :) I've been ranting to my mom about his cuteness, my hopes of having someone like him, my fears that I may not have a chance on an "Elmo" because in this world it's not so hard to feel so small. :) haha! Oh well, my point is...

this is my wallpaper---I say and kiss goodnight to this photo before I sleep. haha! I think this is true love na tlga! charot! :D By the way, I left my mom speechless because of all the things I've been telling her. She doesn't know what to do with me anymore it must be hard to have a weird daughter like me.

Thing is, ELMO MAGALONA finally tweeted the desperate @AlenOSupreme. My heart went out of my chest then suddenly I am shaking & screaming at the same time. WUHAHAHA! :)

That's all thank you!!! All for love!!! I believe in love again! hahah! :) I believe that there is nothing impossible!! FAITH IN LOVE IS RESTORED!! I am so sorry if you think that I am being obnoxious right now. :) sorry na! pagbigyan niyo na ako ngayon lng. :) Who knows, maybe by some miracle I may have the chance to win a date from him. (okay sobra na ung pag-iilusyon ko dito) bye na! :)

#xoxo spread the love.

Dare of Love

We were young, we were wild

busy playing our foolish game.

We didn’t know anything about love

and what it seemed.

But we felt it along the way

and it was real, so real.

Though we were scared

to admit what was meant.

It doesn’t matter how many times

we break these hearts of ours.

How many times we’ve rolled the dice.

Because it’s going to be you and me

in the end of this twisted journey.

And now here we are

baby this is fate.

Hold my hand and kiss me.

Don’t let go.

While we burry all that we fear,

inside this flowing concrete.

 And fulfil our dreams

of everlasting bliss.

You

Just another Monday

You know how it is like, when you sleep late and is obliged to wake up early the next day. Well, that is how things went off.  It’s Monday today and frankly out of all the days it is the least favoured. Alarm starts buzzing like an annoying child crying. You open your eyes and realized that everyone’s gone and all that’s left is you and your throbbing head. Slowly, you pick yourself up; walked down the stairs half-awake. Turned the microwave on and placed a mug of water on heat so you can have your breakfast. Minutes later you are all set to go to school, to accomplish everything you need done and over. It is windy and slightly raining outside. Not a good thing for your “lack of sleep” disease.  

On your way to the north, you watch scenes by the window of the bus you were on while listening to “feel good” music that you hope would help you get through this day. Things in school briefly happened, all in a blur. You are somehow glad that Monday is almost over. To celebrate, you asked a friend to go outside and get a smoke or two. Now relaxed and contemplating while inhaling consequently exhaling substances from a prohibited stick.

You walked along the streets to get a ride going to the bus station. Took your umbrella out because water from the heavens are starting to pour. Finding a ride was easy; you sat in the front seat of this cab. Starting to feel that slight high you get when you smoke. Little by little your head starts to throb again and your soul almost wanting to throw up. Traffic was just as bad as you expected but Monday was not done with you yet. You held yourself up leaning your head by the window of the car and on your most noxious moment , you see “him” with someone else to be sure you took another glance and just like a movie everything was in slow motion. You were saddened not because you still love him but because you were wrong on that idea that you still did. Saddened because you were afraid that you’re not going to feel that same kind of metaphor for someone again; that as of today you are incapable of love.

Hours passed and you managed to catch some sleep on your way home. Feeling a little better now, your mom greets you and suddenly starts talking about this “sad news” which you thought was the perfect recipe to end your Monday. Tired and irritated, you walked up the stairs went inside your room and hugged your pillow tightly. Just like that, you are back from where you started; asleep and hopeful that Monday did not happen.

Falling

I hope he feels the same way

the way i feel for him.

I hope that what he does,

is what his heart believes.

Cause you made me 

change the world completely.

CHORUS:

Ohh...and its hard to fall for someone

when its only me who cares

and its hard to fall for someone

when its only my imagination.
and maybe someday oh

time will come to say

you and I feel the same way.

I hope that what i see,

is what he see's in me

I hope he hears these words;

these words that i fell for

Cause you made me change 

my world completely.

(repeat CHORUS)

and now im here, hoping you'll say

You and i feel the same way.
