Thoughts

     It's hard when you have these many emotions that you want to share with people but you choose not to because you feel that they wouldn't care and you would only just annoy them, so you choose to keep all of  these bottled up inside and let them build up until there is only sadness. This sadness that you feel may come from you only dwelling on the bad things that happened, from constantly comparing yourself with others, from not being content with what you have and you feeling that you are all alone in this world. With these constant thoughts, it will surely equate to you constantly being sad. It's okay to feel down once in a while, but if you do this constantly it could be destructive for yourself. So choose to always look on the bright side, it may sound cliche but it is true. When you choose to look on the bright side you can't help but to feel relieved for a moment of all your problems, and most importantly, you feel happy despite all the problems.

Vday 2012

     Feb. 14 2011, for others it would be another Tuesday but for some it's the time to be all lovey-dovey because it's Valentine's day! Well, this would be true for those who have their special someones, but not so much for the single ones. Many say that if couples call Feb. 14 Valentine's day, the single ones call it S.A.D or Single Awareness Day. I found this funny but at the same time sad that people have made Valentine's day only for couples, how about those who were single? Are they not suppose to enjoy this day because they have no special someone to make it special for them? I actually thought that that was going to happen to me, that I would be spending Valentine's day alone and bitter. Well, thanks to my friends, that didn't happen at all.
 
     The day began with me, Bianca, Ross, and Kelly attending our LEAP. Our LEAP was to watch a bollywood movie, which I surprisingly enjoyed. After that Kelly and I met up with Dazo, Matthew, Ed, Carlo, and Czar so that we would all go to MOA to meet up with the Betts, Julia, Liezel, and Khala to watch The Vow. Even though the boys wanted to watch something else, they still watched with us which I found sweet. During the middle of the movie, the boys started disappearing one by one and by the end of the movie, all of them were gone. We thought that they ditched us because they got bored but to our surprise, they were outside waiting for us to give each one of us roses. I was honestly touched and surprised by this gesture of theirs because I didn't expect something like that from them. I was used to them teasing us and being naughty but I never really knew that they had such a side to them. We all appreciated the effort they placed to surprise us and through this we now know that we are truly blessed to have these boys have friends because even if they constantly tease us, make fun of us, and could sometimes be immature they are truly the sweetest, most loving, caring, thoughtful and the best boy friends we could ever have.

Chinese food!

     I was never a fan of Chinese food. I would always prefer eating Japanese over Chinese food, any day. Well, my taste changed when my Chinese friends, (yes, I have to say Chinese because I feel so proud to actually have Chinese friends. Haha) Louie, Kelly, and Sanmae brought me to Fuo Sheng Restaurant. I didn't really want to at first because I have eaten at other Chinese restaurants and didn't actually like the food, but since there were no other choices and Kelly was already so hungry I agreed to eat there. I ordered fried squid balls because I didn't know the other choices. I just realized now that my choice sucked. I mean, ordering Filipino food at a Chinese restaurant, what was I thinking? Anyway, since Kelly and Sanmae was still not full, they decided to order again. This time, Sanmae ordered Xiao long bao and offered to share it with me and I agreed because I wanted to taste something new.

Eating Xiao long bao was a challenge at first because there was soup inside of it and if you bite it at a wrong angle, all the delicious soup would spill and it would be a waste if the soup would not be eaten. Kelly, Louie, and Sanmae were like experts when they ate theirs while me on the other hand was so awkward because when I bit into the Xiao long bao, its soup dripped down to the plate. Though eating it was a challenge, I had to say that it was one of the most delicious Chinese food I ever tasted and has now became my all time favorite. It's so delicious that I keep on pestering my friends to bring me back to Fuo Sheng so that I can eat it again.
