from me to you
Hey there!
Welcome to the tiny place in cyberspace of a girl who blogs her blues away. And well, maybe out of boredom as well.
How on earth you found your way here may be intentional or completely random, but you're welcome to look around either way.
The navigations are on the ribbon. Just click on them to get around the page. Please do leave me a message on my tagboard so that I know you dropped by.
Thanks and enjoy! :)

Wallflower (wall·flow·er)
Definition
- One who does not participate in the activity at a social event because of shyness or unpopularity.
- A lady at a ball, who, either from choice, or because not asked to dance, remains a spectator.
As the term suggests, I shy away from a lot of things, parties and balls/dances being top 1 and top 2 respectively.
I'm a small girl you won't probably notice in a crowd. On top of that, I'm a natural klutz, the holder of a seemingly record-breaking list of misplaced items, an amateur anything, and an over-thinker who oftentimes lets her head rule her heart.
I'm still normal okay, don't get me wrong. haha... I'm a kid at heart who is easily pleased with simple things. One who carries a pinch of optimism, a tinkling of charm, and loads of laughs. I'm still trying to find my place in this vast expanse, but I'm having tons of fun along the way.
I'll find that light someday, I'm sure! But for now, I'll slow things down a bit and enjoy the ride.
My life's not the most spectacular thing that you'll come across, but it's worth a look :)

 The Bottom Line Just when you'd about given up hope for someone, they'll come through for you today.
In Detail Just when you thought you had given up hope that that certain someone would ever notice you, today brings some promising attention. Maybe you've been waiting for your boss to praise all of your hard work. Maybe you've been hoping that the teacher would see how involved you been in discussions. Perhaps you're wondering when on earth that cutie will give you the time of day. Whoever has been testing your patience will finally come to their senses and see you for who you are, today.
Please, please, please let this be right. Especially the one about the teacher seeing my effort in discussions and... Okay... The cutie actually realizing my existence. haha just kidding.
Anyway, I had visitors yesterday. Alliv, Arik, Camille, and Jenner came over to visit me. haha... They arrived at around 10 and left at 12 something. Bonding in my house! Wee! It was fun taking pics with everyone and catching up with with what's been going on.
I found out a lot yesterday from each of them, and I can't begin to express how happy I was when I heard. On top this, I found it super sweet of them to go all the way from Taft to my house in Katipunan just so we'd get to hang out as a barkada. I'm glad they liked my house, I hope next time would be a sleep over. heehee... Thanks for this unplanned visit Cab (FX and jeep na rin ba?) Hailers! I love you guys!
I'm feeling so sabaw today and I'm sleepy, so sorry for the next things you'll read. Madaldal ako pag inaantok ako, promise. You can stop now if you want to. haha...
Yesterday, I was in Megamall with my mom. We always walk by the skating rink, but never once have we stopped to watch the skaters. Yesterday, however, we had this crazy idea to stop and watch them. As I was watching, a little girl at about 5 or 6 years of age skated by me. I remembered how my dad encouraged me to take ice skating lessons when I was about the little girl's age. You know what? I regret saying no each time he asked me. I could have probably been a great skater.
My mom and I went to Shangri-La after. I entered the mall with a head full of fond memories in that mall, especially those of my days in Trumpets. I haven't been there in a long time, so that could have been the reason why I started reminiscing all of a sudden. Nothing beat the feeling of singing to my heart's content. Again, I was overcome with regret. Had I continued my plan to stick with Trumpets, I could have probably been a great performer.
Now where am I? In a state of frustration. I'll never know if I could have been great in skating or performing, all because it was my own choice to turn my back on the opportunities right in front of me. I could try to undo this, but it might just be a few years too late.
But on the other side of regret lies another story. Regret may have left me frustrated, but on the other hand, I've made a lot of unexpected turns along my way that may have meant more than taking the path directed to me.
I may not be a great skater or performer right now, but I have discovered a love for sports. Turning down more lessons in Trumpets meant concentration on Taekwondo and Karate during my High School years, I even got up to high Brown belt and won a lot of gold and silver medals and a trophy for first place. I was not only given the chance to represent my school, but also meet a lot of great people in RBMAC. As to skating, I don't quite know what the trade-off would have been because I still think I should have taken those lessons. haha... But I'm sure there's a good reason why the little voice in my heart has led me to where I am now.
Regret does have its little blessings in disguise. It just takes a positive mind to realize that regret is nonsense, nonsense in the sense that we keep fretting about it so much without seeing the better things it has brought about. In the end, we'll realize there really is nothing to regret.
I think to much don't I? haha...
I'm gonna sleep now. Daddy's officemates are coming over tomorrow at 9:30 in the morning to install the new router! Yay! Good night!
