for some feel good feeling


Feeling a bit under the weather and this song is perfect for the bed weather.

I remember when he came here in Manila for his 2nd concert, we helped him eat Balut [video below]. Miss you David!!:)


to the things and people worth keeping

Being in the media and fashion industry simply means people will come and go. Some will make the effort to reach you and some just slip away...

Career Chase
I have jumped from one job to another, in over 2 years I had 6 jobs. From PR to production, and that's not including my styling, hosting, painting and events planning here and there. These things had kept me busy but it doesn't mean I am not looking for a job that I wanna settle in. I want a nice job, where I can grow and hone whatever talent I have. (I should try joining the circus for a balancing act #chos)

I stumbled upon this thought when I was invited for a career talk in my former school. (woah!) When I was in high school, I always wanted to be a reporter. And that's why I took Mass Comm Broadcast when I got to college. But you know, College took me into a whirlwind. Then I wanted to become a director, stylist, PR, art professor and wedding specialist. You don't really chose a career, sometimes you just stumble upon something that will make you happy, whether or not you studied for it.

Now I'm doing PR for sports and I couldn't be any happier. But before I got into this, I took on so many jobs that I had to be tough to get through.  I had the fear of leaving a job that I loved and a job that payed really well. After going through all these, I finally found something that might be it. Something that may be worth keeping. But I'm afraid, I may be messing this up. So today marks the day that I will not mess up ever again.

Friends Forever
That was corny, but I can't find another word to match with 'F'. Anyway, We go our separate ways and times change, but some thing stay the same. Met up with college friends, and we're still the same. Might be better looking than back in college, but definitely same attitude and same antics.

You will eventually find them, friends that are like family to you. They accept you, even though you are stubborn like hell. Or even when you mess up, big time. They will always have your back, and even though it seem like no ones there, they are there. Holding you up from a distance.

And when you find these people, they are worth keeping. forever.

Brave souls, Wild hearts



His touch lingered in every part of me,

His smell stayed on my skin.

He caressed every part of my soul,

He loved every bit of me.

If brave souls can only,

Stay and forever will be.

Wild hearts can always love truly,

But never in ways that everyone hopes will be.

the morning after...

There will always be that day when you just have to go. Go back to your life.

She opened her eyes as the morning light touched her face, it was 8am on her clock and the alarm didn't went off. She was late for work, as usual. She has this habit of not going to work on time on mondays, despite how busy her mondays was, she choose to watch him sleep beside her.

An hour later she caught herself sleeping again, her face next to him, his hand on her hips. I can stay here forever, she thought. She wanted to tell him that for the longest time but she didn't have the courage to just blurt it out. Another hour later, she sat up and collected her clothes from the floor. With her clothes on her arms, she crept into the bathroom. Her bag was sitting there in the counter top. She turned the shower as she stared at her feet. He was still sleeping as she took a peek in his room. She left him a goodbye kiss and went off.

In the cab, she sent him a message. "Good morning, you have a good day ahead". This was one of her rituals after leaving his place, after an hour he sends her a reply. "Good morning too. thanks babe." With just that, she was there again. In a dilemma if she should quit him or if she should stay.

He taught her to be brave, to be brave enough to love him despite all the shit he's putting her through. Despite the pain of not having to tell him how much she loves him.

She knew the kind of relationship she's jumping in to. She was ready, she was sure. But every time she thinks of him being with someone else, she can't. She can't take the thought of sharing him, or having him in someone else' arms.
