Those Were The Days

Receiving a text message or a phone call early in the morning.

Sweet nothings sent through love letters, cakes and flowers.

Taking pictures of each other's silly faces.

Writing our bucket list.

Singing to our favorite songs.

Eating out.

Watching our favorite films together.

Cuddling, laughing, hugging each other and exchanging "I LOVE YOU's"

As wonderful as it seems, all of these things belong to those were the days

Dealing with a Heartache

It was September 22, 2012 when I first met the man who made me feel so loved. He was my first boyfriend. He was the first man who made my heart skip a beat. He was the one who gave me flowers, the one who gave me sweet cakes and most especially he was the one who gave those wonderful love letters. He was the one who promised me he'll not let go and he'll marry me when the time's right.

Oh those promises I really cannot forget. Each promise makes me fall for him more and more. I love him. I honestly love him deeply.

But sometimes, good things don't last. After 9 months of being together, today is the day when everything has to end, when  promises were finally broken and  when forever becomes a lie.

I didn't know love is somehow synonymous with pain. I think it's already the end. I think this is goodbye and I hope I will be able to deal with it well. My life should not end here. I still have my family, my friends, and my students who want to see me smile and laugh again.

Happy 9th Monthsary to Us!! :D

What If We were Made for Each Other

What If We were Bestfriends and Lovers

I Wanna Stay Right Here In This Moment With You

Over and Over and Over Again

Oh Boy You Really Make My Heart STOP

What If?

I see you standing over there

You look around without a care

I pretend you notice me

I look in your eyes and what you see

Is it made up in my mind

Am I just wasting time?

I think this could be love

I'm serious

What if we were made for each other?

Born to become best friends and lovers

I want to stay right here in this moment with you

Over and over and over again

What if this could be a real love, a love, a love, yeah?

I write our names down in the sand

Picturing all our plans

I close my eyes and I can see

You, and you ask, "Will you marry me?"

Is it made up in my mind

Am I crazy, just wasting time?

I think this could be love

I'm serious

What if we were made for each other?

Born to become best friends and lovers

I want to stay right here in this moment with you

Over and over and over again

What if this could be a real love, a love, a love, yeah?

I don't know what to think

Is this real or just a dream

In my heart is where you'll be

I'll keep waiting 'til we meet

What if were made for each other?

Born to become best friends and lovers

I want to stay right here in this moment with you

Over and over and over again

What if this could be a real love, a love, a love, yeah?

Oh, you really make my heart stop, stop, stop

Oh what if this is real love?

Oh what if this is real love?

Oh boy, you make my heart stop, you make my heart stop

You make my heart stop

Happy Again. :D

I had a great "me time" yesterday. I first went to Water District to pay for our monthly bill. After that, I went to San Pedro St. just to unwind. And when I say unwind, that means eating out. Yeah! Okay, going back to my story. I was alone, wandering and enjoying my "me time", when I suddenly, I received a message from one of my Grade 1 parents, she said. " Wala ka na pala sa U*** ma'am noh? Thank you ma'am for how you have passionately texted me  for the past ten months." She also said, " I wish you luck and God bless." I was really happy to receive a message like this. After awhile, she texted me again, stating" You're students will be very lucky to have you as their teacher. " Oh my! After receiving this kind of message, I really feel so happy. It's a bit unusual because I thought I wasn't able to do a good job during my "Grade 1 teaching experience." I was about to lose hope in teaching. I always say I am not good a good teacher. I always think negative about my teaching skills. Later I realized, I shouldn't be pessimistic. Maybe I am not the best or even the perfect teacher, but I guess there are still those who can see my heart in teaching and I believe this is the most important thing- be passionate in what you're doing. I still feel happy today. :D

I'm Loving You Everyday

I love you so much. You know who you are. :)

Happily Singing To my Fave Songs

I am currently listening to some wonderful songs from Colbie Caillat's What if and Bubbly and Nina's Saving Forever For You . The breezy nature of these songs make me feel happy. I can see my self smiling from ear to ear. I am also singing along with the song ( I'm a frustrated singer). I feel so happy today. Positivity  is flowing all over my body.

Feeling Determined!! Yeah :)

I've been working on something important. I hope I will be able to create a good article. The problem is, I still don't know what to write about. Anyway, I feel determined to end this task before the deadline. :D

Stressed out!

  I am really sleepy today. I didn't get enough sleep these days. It seems like my circadian rhythm is a little bit confused! I just wanna go home and sleep all day.

I Got a Letter :D

It's a nice feeling to receive a letter from a friend. 

Indeed, FRIENDSHIP is one of the best things in life that money can't buy. 

Thanks Jansky ♥

Love is when the other person's happiness is more important than your own.
H. Jackson Brown, Jr. 

It's a miracle to find a person who loves you and accepts everything about you. As I always say, I am not perfect. I have a lot of insecurities. For sure, there are many times that you don't understand my mood swings. I know it's hard to deal with me. Thank you for staying anyway. 

You know  I love to make funny faces with you. Let's continue to create good memories together. You are my miracle, my gift from God. I will always love you and I will save my forever with you.

I hope you feel the same way too.

Missing Them

I have been working in GNA for 1 year. I can still remember my  first day here, that was last April 16, 2012.  I had 8 students then. My schedule was from 8pm-12 mn. I was so nervous.I cannot even say my name and my opening spiel properly. I don't know what to do and I messed up a lot.  I've met many Japanese people. After being able to get  my confidence back, I realized my students were really nice. I teach them English  and they appreciate every single detail of it. They really know how to say thank you for teaching them simple to complex information about English. I feel so happy to be appreciated. I also feel like the most beautiful girl in the world whenever they say, I like your smile, your eyes, and especially your teaching. I feel so elated to be valued by these people knowing that the only thing that connects us is Skype.

After a year, I made one of the greatest decisions in my life and that is to become an ENC teacher. I know this will gain me new experiences. I believe it will teach me new things. However, I have to say good bye to my GNA students/friends. I know I'm not the best. I'm not perfect, I sometimes fail too. I just feel so blessed because despite my incompetence they still reserve a lesson on my time slot. They still listen to my endless rants and about my whatever opinions. I honestly miss them and I feel so glad to receive messages from them congratulating me about my success of entering ENC.

I know ENC  is another challenging journey, but I will never ever forget the things I've learned in GNA. The cool students I've met there. And most especially, the friendship that I've found from my loyal students.

I really hate goodbyes! But for sure I will meet them soon. As of now my experience in GNA will be one of the best and sweetest memories in my life.

New Found Friends :D

Working in a new environment is indeed a be very  terrifying experience, especially for me who is a self proclaimed introvert. I am still struggling on how to deal with people. I don't know how to approach them and I always feel uncomfortable seeing new faces.

Good thing! I found not only one , not two, not three but many very close friends in my new workplace. I am in awe to be taken care of by these people. 

I am expecting for a happier, stronger and more meaningful friendship with them. 

Being happy is a choice and I choose to be happy again.

I know I always hurt you.

 I know I have been so childish.

 I am glad  you didn't leave me.

So  let's be happy forever. 

Hello best friend/lover/everything ♥

When Things Fall Apart

I think the end is near for us to let go of each others hands. 

We'll  live our lives separately again.

I will surely miss our silly moments together.

I hate good byes, but I guess this is the best thing that we should do.

</3

I'm gonna miss you so bad

                                                                                                 

Every moment with you becomes extra special. 

I'm Going Home :D

I'll be going home soon!!

I'm  so excited to see the outside world again.

It seems like I haven't seen the sun for quiet a long time.

It seems like I haven't seen the crowd.

I just can't explain the excitement I feel inside!!

I sound so whatever!! 

but I can't help it :D

Yes! Yes! Yes!
