Day 15 (Picture Challenge)
A photo of you and someone you love
 |
| my hubby & me |
Sooner or later we begin to understand that love is more than verses on valentines and romance in the movies. We begin to know that love is here and now, real and true, the most important thing in our lives. For love is the creator of our favorite memories and the foundation of our fondest dreams. Love is a promise that is always kept, a fortune that can never be spent, a seed that can flourish in even the most unlikely of places. And this radiance that never fades, this mysterious and magical joy, is the greatest treasure of all -- one known only by those who love.

| Gold, Gail, me |
I can't choose between them. They're both my favorite. The closest thing to me. I feel like a child whenever I'm with them. I feel free. Like I can do anything in front of them, eat whatever I want, say whatever I want to say. They are my comfort zone. I love them. And I know they do, too. I miss them so much especially our bonding moments together. The camera tripping, the movie marathons, food trip, laugh trip, malling. I so love them. And I hope I can be with them again soon.

From left to right: Shyra, Lea, Camille, Jinky, Abbey, Hershey, me, Marla
My DABARKADS. 3rd year high school, I can still remember. Lea is my best friend of all. They are the ones who laugh at my jokes when they're not so good, and who sympathizes with my problems when they're not so bad. They bring out the best in me. I know nobody's perfect, but they will always be perfect for me. ^_^ |
| Leonel Ray Balba |
He has been my best friend since 1st year high school. Well, everything is unexpected between us. The 1st time he talked to me, I find him very weird and irritating. LMAO! He's so mayabang and all. Keeps gossiping about our classmates' "ugly side". But then, he's very sweet! And I feel very comfortable whenever we're together. ^_^

Day 11 (Picture Challenge)
A photo of your favorite film(s)
When I started watching Harry Potter, I felt as if a new world was beginning to open for me. It felt like magic (no pun intended), like suddenly I could escape from reality every once in a while and live in the world of Harry Potter. And just by reading the books (even without the movies) already gave me the feeling as if it was real. And the characters are amazing too, they made me laugh, cry, scared and I could relate to them too. So.. ^_^
I love the fantasy love romance side of this story. I dreaded watching the movie the first time since I don't like scary or ghost movies that much. But since then, I'm hooked into it. And I even read the whole book (saga). I love the seductive and inviting side of Edward and the innocence and fragile Bella. The romance is something I enjoy, and I feel that it's a magical place where I can connect to real love and feel that it exists.
TOO MANY TO MENTION. LOL!

BUT WAIT, THERE'S A LOT MORE! AND I CAN'T REMEMBER THE TITLES ANYMORE. LMAO! I'LL JUST CONTINUE THIS POST SOME OTHER TIME. ^_^

GUY 1: I think I'm beginning to fall for another person. Can't help it, there are just too many girls out there and my girl's just too plain.
GUY 2: Be contented. Yes, there are people who are greater than her. There are people who are more attractive, more intelligent, more caring. That's life - full of temptations. But don't be deceived by those things. Because didn't you ever realize that there are people who are also greater than you? Yet she chose you.

Seriously? 7:45 pm? When I was here last year (winter time), the sun sets at around 5:30 pm. But now, we eat our dinner at around 10:30 pm because the sun sets at 9 pm. LOL! It's kinda hard to adjust, but I love it!

Day 3 (Picture Challenge)
A photo that makes you happy
Knowing we're still together after all the hardships we've been through, keeping in mind that we're still connected even though we're apart from each other, and realizing that after all these years, we are truly meant to be.
As a first time mom, I really can't explain how happy I am when I saw my baby on his 1st ultrasound. Tears fell from my eyes as I watch him sleep inside my womb. And the happiest part of it? When I saw him move like he was dancing when Levin entered the room.

The Tales Of Beedle The Bard
Actually, I've only read the first part of the book. I don't wanna go further because I might like it and might finish it earlier than expected. So for now, I'm reserving it 'til the day Nicolai is born. So that I can read it not only to myself, but to him.

Possession date is on July 1, 2011
Since I'm gonna have a baby, my family and I decided to buy a new house. Yes, it's a bit small but it's cute. And it's still a home. Not bad for starters like us. Especially me and lev. Thank god my parents are still very supportive. And I'm glad I still have them by my side. The only thing that's missing in my life now is my husband. Hopefully, he'll be here soon. My own family, in our own home.

Life Still Has A Meaning
If there is a future, there is time for mending
Time to see your troubles coming to an ending.
Life is never hopeless how great your sorrow
If you're looking forward to a new tomorrow.
If there is time for wishing, then there is time for hoping
When through doubt and darkness you are blindly groping.
Though the heart be heavy and hurt you may be feeling
If there is time for praying there is time for healing.
So if through your window there is a new day breaking
Thank god for the promise, though mind and soul be aching.
If the harvest over there is grain enough for gleaning
There is a new tomorrow and life still has meaning.
Love And Time
Once upon a time, there was an island where all the feelings, emotions and attributes lived: Joy, Sadness, Knowledge, and all of the others, including Love. One day it was announced to them that the island would sink, so all constructed boats and left. Except for Love.
Love wanted to wait until the last possible moment but when the island had almost sunk, Love decided to ask for help.
Greed was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love asked, “Greed, can you take me with you?” Greed answered, “No, I can’t. My boat is too full of gold so there is no room for you here.”
Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by in a beautiful boat. “Vanity, please help me!” “I can’t help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat,” Vanity answered.
Sadness was close by so Love asked, “Sadness, can I come with you?” “Oh Love, I am so sad so I need to be by myself!”
Love wanted to wait until the last possible moment but when the island had almost sunk, Love decided to ask for help.
Greed was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love asked, “Greed, can you take me with you?” Greed answered, “No, I can’t. My boat is too full of gold so there is no room for you here.”
Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by in a beautiful boat. “Vanity, please help me!” “I can’t help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat,” Vanity answered.
Sadness was close by so Love asked, “Sadness, can I come with you?” “Oh Love, I am so sad so I need to be by myself!”
Joy passed by Love, too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her.
Suddenly, there was a voice, “Come, Love, I will take you.” It was an elder.
So blessed and overjoyed, Love even forgot to ask the elder where they were going or who he was. When they arrived at dry land, the elder went his own way.
Love wanted to thank the elder that had helped him so he asked Knowledge, “Who was it that Helped me?” “It was Time,” Knowledge answered. “Time?” asked Love. “But why did Time help me?” Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered,
“Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is.”

Long Distance Relationship Scenario
The hardest part in any relationship is saying goodbye to that one very special person in your life. Mas mabuti pa nga ata yong mag break nalang kayo for a moment kesa nasa malayo yong isa & the other has to wait. And we all know naman that everyone hates the burden of waiting, especially of unsured things. Ang dami ding tanong pag dating sa LDR, like:
How could you work out the relationship when you are not together? Meron bang nagtatagal with that setup? or, Pano pag nakahanap siyang iba don?
Worst things could not or could happen, since there are no permanent things in this mundane world. In LDR, walang “WINNER” dahil pareho kayong “LOSER”, especially when you miss each other so much and there’s no possible way para makita niyo ang isa’t isa, since you are stucked somewhere.
Communication is essential in everything we do.
Pero kadalasan ito ang nagiging problema ng couples in LDR. Iba-iba kasi ang coping mechanism ng tao. Pwedeng si guy para hindi niya masyadong maisip si girl, he’ll maybe stop texting or calling his girlfriend for a while o kahit anong means of communication. Eh kaso lang si girl kabaliktaran, she wants it to be constant para hindi niya mamiss si guy. Ang gulo no? Pero ganon talaga, stressful ang malagay sa isang LDR. Meron pang times na may trust issues, lalo na pag may na observe or nakitang something new ang partner mo sayo like sa pictures on FB with some good looking girl or guy na naka akbay pa or anything with sweet gestures. Kaya lagot ka pag alam partner mo ang password ng mga social networking site mo.
So, lesson for everyone: Never make things that could possibly make your partner jealous, nakakasira ng relationship lang yon.
Kaya mag delete agad ng mga messages ng walang ebidensya at problema. Hahaha!
Here are my simple reminders!
Para sa naiwan:
Do your part as well. Be sure to contact your partner once in awhile dahil hind 24 hours busy ang tao. If you two use FB, then drop a sweet message that could make your partner's day.
Just simply say that “i miss you” or “i love you”. That’s pretty enough, yong tinatawag na assurance ba.
Be constant with the promises you had made, so that you won’t end up messing things or worst ending the relationship. There’s nothing sure on this earth. Changes, yon lang ata ang masasabing permananente dito. Kaya pag di nag work yong LDR, dahil mahirap naman talaga malagay on that case.
Sometimes it’s better to let go even though you love each other so much, than being sick of waiting or hating the fact that you can’t be together for a long time.
But if you are meant to be, kahit ilang years pa yan o kahit magkaron pa kayo ng iba, destiny na mismo ang gagawa ng way para magkita kayo.
Kasi sabi nga nila, kung kayo ang para sa isa’t isa, kayo padin pagdating sa huli.
Kaya hanggan andyan pa siya, cherish every moment of it. Never miss the chance to show your love, para wala kang pagsisisihan. At least, you could tell yourself that you did your best mapasaya lang siya.
Sabi nga sa text message: Never give a person a reason to stay but give him/her a reason to come back.
Just wait for that special one. Weather you are waiting as a friend or just simply wondering when he/she is returning. Because missing someone even you are not together just means that person did something that no one else could. Every relationships has it’s up and down, but love is the most precious thing on earth.
Specially loving someone unconditionally even from afar.

Para sa naiwan:
It’s ok to miss someone but you must also know how to save your heart, mahirap magkasakit sa puso men! You should never expect, assume or demand, know your limits, role in relationship, and where you stand. Wag kang masyadong affected, paranoid or jealous. Just wait for your partner to contact you, sigurado namang mamimiss ka non.
Just go with the flow and as much as possible make yourself busy and happy.
Mahirap gawin pero kelangan para hindi mag worry yong nasa malayo and that your partner knows that you trust him/her.
