Still at the office (The Fort) at this time of the night. Okay, so it's okay 7:45PM but I'm still working. Seriously.
I was working on a presentation and then, I felt sad all of a sudden. I don't know why. A BBLOG reader on Facebook told me that maybe, someone is also thinking of me in a sad way.
I read in a book that when a person thinks, he/she emits waves (electromagnetic waves ba yun, basta waves of some sort, I'm too lazy to Google) and then, somewhere, somehow these waves collide with the waves emitted by someone else's thoughts.
Isn't it romantic? That somewhere, somehow, that trails your thoughts create collide / intersect with someone else's and they're all invisible to the naked eye? Only the universe is witness to just how many strangers "meet" / come across each other every single second.
I wonder whose waves mine collided with. Maybe he / she is thinking of me in a sad way too.
“Loving a writer ain’t always what it’s supposed to be...
Between Logan and I, I’m the one who rarely sends SMS during the day, rarely replies to SMS sent during the night, rarely returns calls, and rarely goes to lengths for him. Despite his failed romanticism tactics, I’m the one who fails to show just how much his love means to me. So let me tweak a few eternal lyrics of Journey’s Faithfully…“Loving a writer ain’t always what it’s supposed to be, oh boy, you stand by me. I’m forever yours, faithfully". (Excerpt, BBLOG ON)
Emotional pains last for 12 minutes
"In an article I read once, it says that all emotional pains last for 12 minutes and that anything longer is self-induced. Wow! I spent almost 3 years wallowing over Matt. I wonder now how I managed to live my life back then with such a grudge. The way I see it now, it seemed that I allowed him to live on my head without paying rent. What an awful waste of time but hey, I’m a woman and women wallow." (Excerpt, BBLOG ON)
Who could blame them?
"I’ve been thinking, a man who had just gotten out of a suffocating relationship will party 24/7 while you spend the nights crying. Who could blame them? Why not handle break-ups like a man? If you really want someone back (or get another bf), you need to get a life first. Men are like butterflies. To catch them, all you need is a lot of insensitivity to their insensitivity."

Especially when he’s 28
"Responsibility is a big word. When I was young, I thought that being in a relationship is about dates &roses. Today, trust, respect & responsibility play big roles in how we compromise. There’s nothing more frustrating than being with an irresponsible & directionless person. Love isn’t enough of a reason to stick with someone who has no plans except to play video games all week long. Especially when he’s 28." (Excerpt, BBLOG ON)
How come I don’t care now?
"Lately, I’ve been thinking just when I started to think the way I do. I used to be very, very affected by what people say/think about me. How come I don’t care now? I thought it had always been a self-induced choice but when I looked back, I realized that Logan influenced me more than I care to admit. It’s not just a smooth relationship. It’s a great partnership. After all, Logan is my partner in crime." (Excerpt, BBLOG ON)
Uso ba ang single ngayon?
Two of my best friends are single. Uso ba ang single ngayon? Ako na ba ang susunod? Buti nalang hindi ako sumusunod sa uso. Hehe. But seriously now...what?! Nicia and Gail are single and the latter just called for an emergency coffee session which meant only one thing: I need to release some steam or else I’ll implode. I wonder what happened. (Excerpt, BBLOG ON)
It’s respect.
In an article I wrote, I lectured that trust is not the most important thing in a relationship. It’s respect. Respect for privacy, freedom, self-expression, passions, dreams & shortcomings. Unlike trust, it isn’t easily broken & unlike love, it isn’t given freely. You have to work hard to earn one’s respect & when you finally have it, everything else—love, support, time, loyalty—follows. (Excerpt, BBLOG ON)
Real names blurred.
Real names blurred. Coffee session with Gail and former friend Nicia at Starbucks, High Street.
My BFF is going through a tough breakup phase: the 1st month—the craziest, nastiest, hair-pulling stage of all. When you’re going through this you need 3 kinds of girl friends: one who listens, one believes in tough love & one who drags you to the salon/gym/movies. I’m all three but my super girl friend powers can’t handle this one alone. I need reinforcements. Breakups, even if it’s not yours, are always messy. (Excerpt, BBLOG ON)

TOSH (The Old Spaghetti House). Obviously, it's one of our favorite restaurants.
Distance
"Sometimes, you need to create distance so that you will know who cares enough to pull you back. But how much distance do you give when your BF asks for space? In Pretty Little Liars, a character said “don’t give him too much space or you’ll lose him completely.” It’s frustrating how much time, effort, and calculations we spend to discover what guys really want. Can’t it just be the other way around?" - Veronica

I have very proud friends who rarely speak of their troubles but when they do, they let it all out.One of my BFFs nearly broke down last night over a breakup & she asked me for advice. I told her to take it step by step. Step 1: tell the people closest to you about it—your parents. That’s the hardest part. Nothing makes a breakup more real than telling your parents about it.

Baccalaureate Mass
Mobile phone photos during my baccalaureate mass. Bad quality.
In my old Multiply account, my photo caption here was, "Guide me."
So apt. I was so lost at that time.
Taken before the fireworks display.
Taken right after I talked to Matt over the phone.
