The Heat of Summer Sunshine

May 21, 2012. My friends Camille, Jen, Rica(Ed's sister), Me, Feliz and Ed(The one who took the picture) with Solon and Cham (Who went in the afternoon), went to Blue Jaz in Samal Island. It was the late birthday celebration of Ed's 19th birthday.

This picture was taken when we were grilling bbqs and  bangus. The bbq was really delicious, btw.

This is Ed. The birthday boy. He was the only thorn among the roses. Well, until Solon caught up in the afternnoon.

Here we are, chillin' in the pooool. :)

(L-R: Jen, Feliz, Me, Camille, Ed, Ralph(solon) and Cham)

It was a really fun, fun, fun day. Even though our other friends wasn't able to make it, we still had so much fun. I seriously doubt that there wouldn't be a next time. haha! And in that next time, I hope that everyone will be there, so that it would be more fun. :)

AWESOME DAY!

A Day Not In Time

It started to rain

My heart's in total pain

How can I keep myself sane

Wish I could take the fast lane.

No sight of you, so hard it is,

A part of me started to miss,

How you made smile, effortless,

I don't know if I could love you less.

To let my heart once again

To live life and face  the burdens

Please don't let it, to me, sink in

That's all the same when it comes to men.

Wish you're different, and treat me right

Would like to keep me in sight?

Please don't turn black, a day that's bright

Hurt me not and keep my heartaches light.

New Life Begins

May 11-13, 2012. I went to a YLSS (Youth Life in the Spirit Seminar). It's a seminar about receiving the Holy Spirit and its gifts. I believe that the seminar made me a better person. I became more patient and more positive in life. It made my faith in God stronger, but I know I'm still a working progress, I'm working at it every single day. The seminar gave me a new perspective, a new world to see and witnessing the reality of how the dark side will do everything to keep us away from God's arms and how God let me realize that He's the most powerful and that I shouldn't be afraid because He's with me. and for that, I'll trust in Him.

I'm so happy I attended that seminar. Wouldn't spend that weekend any better. So cheers to the new life!

Fearless~

I think I've read, watched and heard enough love experiences to have an idea what will one becomes if one falls in love. But I cannot fully understand the feeling, the rush, the adrenaline that, that person feels whenever she's with the man she loves, for I have never experienced falling in love. Yet.

Before, there are times that I would mistakenly recognize that I was in love with someone. I would be 'Kilig' whenever we're together, even though we're just friends. I'd be sad if he's sad or whenever he's not around and other things whenever you feel that you like someone. But later on, I would realize that it was just a great great crush or an infatuation. It wasn't love. I didn't even know what consists love or what love truly is.

I've grown, I think. I became a rational being. Too rational, that I don''t recognize or seek for my heart's voice. I over think things, all the time. All the time. I stop myself sometimes and just let things go. I'm supposed to follow my #2 motto: Que Sera Sera
(If not familiar, google it. hehe). But when a male species(LOL), I'll change that. If a guy that I don't know much, tends to be friendly or overly friendly  to me(not being assuming), my instinct is that, I'll put all my guards up, that instant. And the outcome would be like, I'll be super awkward and would not be able to speak properly. I'll be answering questions in one line, a word, or even just a chuckle. Then after that awkward situation, I would realize how stupid I was and now the guy might think that I'm a mean or rude and maybe would think that I don't like him. And this kind of stupidity would hunt me for a week, or more, or until I'm assured that he doesn't think of me that way. I don't know. UGH.

My friends said that they would throw me a party if I would finally have a boyfriend. I don't think that'd be soon. I don't think that I'm ready. I am a very independent person. And I don't want another person would monitor my moves or would somehow limit my freedom. I don't want to depend on someone that would have the possibility to be leaving me in the future. I don't know what made me think this way, but it's just how I am today. I'm a fan of relationships and commitment. For now, the important things for me are my relationship with God, family and my studies, my friends too. And I don't think it'll just change that easily until I see, feel and experience personally, this guy, this one guy, that would change my views about real love, that would make me believe  about falling in love, and that a lifetime commitment is real and possible, and I would be much willing to put share my self with and not fear that I'll be betrayed because I'll be assured that he'd never judge and accept me with all my weirdness, and that we could be each other's dream and we would dream together............ and that, he would make me feel fearless....

Lazy Song

Today I swear I'm doing anything~ *insert whistle tone here X)

Yeh, today, I was kinda sorta lazy. I just stayed on the sofa watching movies the whole afternoon. Actually until now I'm sitting on the exact same spot. HAHA!
Kinda Sorta lazy- cos I went to school this morning, So, I wasn't that lazy. btw, I was tempted not to attend class cos I was feeling so lazy this morning but I attended anyway for the sake of having good grades. waaaa~ And then I went home at 10am and started to watch t.v and then got bored so I started watching DVDs. I watched 'The Rite' and 'Pirates of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides' 'twas a lot of fun. I enjoyed watching these movies. I didn't even realized that it was already dark outside and I haven't turned on the lights, I was too engrossed. Lol.

Hope something awesome and interesting will happen to me the next days! :)

                                                  Ciao, Kissa~ xx

Typical Friday~

Today was plain, normal, a typical day, nothing happened special or surprising and the like. This day was actually kinda boring. I was supposed to go to McDonald's  in Abreeza to start making my term paper for Soc Sci 6, but I had to go home right away from school.  The reason why I wanna do to my term paper outside cos I can't concentrate when I make it at home. I get distracted with the t.v and our very inviting sofa and would rather watch t.v or movies the whole time than making my term paper.

------------------------------------------------------

Watched a movie today(DVD) and 'Time' for my movie review. Gawd I love watching movies. hahaha. But it doesn't mean that my blog will be all about the movies that I watched. It's just that, I've been watching a lot of movies lately. ;)

IN TIME~

I watched the movie 'In Time' just 2 hrs ago. Justin Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried were the main actors. I had invited my friends to watch this movie when it got out in theaters but we didn't get the chance.

What can I say about this movie......it was 50-50 for me. I wasn't fully satisfied. It was kinda sorta lacking, for me. Though the story's very original and interesting, the events, the scenes, some of it were like the 'a-y' in 'okay'. You get me? And the sequencing was so quick that I thought that there's something missing. And the ending was...okay. The conflict was not that resolved. They became fugitives and it was hanging. Although I've encountered movies with a hanging end before but in this one, I wasn't just satisfied. I want mooooore..... maybe they'll make a sequel to it and would answer all the questions I have in my mind right now! LOL!

that's all folks!

Black & White

I watched Manila Kingpin at the mall just this afternoon. This is the 2nd time that I went to the theater to watch a movie alone. :) 

This movie was an official entry for Metro Manila Film Festival or MMFF. 

When I first saw the trailer of Manila Kingpin, I was surprised because it was in black and white. I thought it was a joke or a commercial or something, but then I saw the same trailer again and again and it made me very interested, and it made me want  to watch Manila Kingpin because FYI I'm very much into period, medieval, Cultural, Historical, old setting kind of movies :). And Manila Kingpin's setting is in 1940's ( not sorta sure bout this). 

The story-line was  very satisfying, even the editing of the movie and the action scenes wasn't bad either. The action scenes were believable, not cliched and were not corny. Though the movie was tend to be serious, there was a hint of comedy in some scenes. It made the movie light and more enjoyable. The cinematography was good too, it captured the scenes in the right angles and in the right time. I was also satisfied with the the actors' acting. Though I was able to predict some of the things that'll happen next, I still very much enjoyed watching it, though I was alone. HAHAHA.

It won a lot of awards in the MMFF, 11 to be exact. At first you wouldn't expect it to win anything because the other movies were waaay more famous and were able to promote a lot with their movies than Manila Kingpin did. But when you watch the movie, you'll know exactly why. I believed,  even before watching it, that it's a good quality movie, and I was so psyched when I heard that it won best picture and other awards so I didn't delay it any longer and decided to watch it whenever I got the money and the time. And that was today! :)

My 110 pesos wasn't wasted. It was worth it! :)
