Before, I used to laugh at people who erase their former lovers or ex-gf/bf from their cellphone contacts and social networking sites. I think it's childish to do that. But now I realize that it's not childish, not even immature. I think they just want to forget - to forget everything about that person. they may not be angry or bitter but i think they just want to move on. I think they have decided that it would be easier and healthier if they lose contact with that person. And how would they move on if everyday that they check their facebook accounts, they see news feeds about that person. It's much painful that way. So they choose to rid of any connection and anything that may remind them of that person. 

So now, I say to those people who want to move on... go.. erase.. forget... let go... grow...

    Ako naman erase ko agad yun cellphone number niya. Di ko rin sinasaulo para madaling makalimutan at di na makontak pa mas madali maka move on pati na din mga fb nila ganyan

    I just unsubscribe in fb so that I won't be getting newsfeed from him. I need not delete his number too since he changed num... but it's so true, it pains me seeing newsfeed of him... I guess eliminating contacts is part of acknowledging that things ain't the same...

Before Coming Out

Lately, I've been thinking of coming out. It's like I want to free of myself of the burden of keeping my identity a secret. But before I come out, I just have some personal conditions I need to accomplish first. I won't be doing these things just to earn people's approval on my lifestyle but more for me being comfortable in the path I've chosen to live.

Mga ilang tagpo ng gabing iyon

Sa mga oras na iyon, tipong game na lang kaming magkakaibigan kung anong mangyari. Inumpisahan kasi nung isang guy na tumingin sa aming direksyon sa may Starbucks sa Greenfield. Tipong nag-uusap kaming magkakaibigan doon sa labas na tables nang sabay-sabay kaming napatingin sa isang lalaking dumaan. Sabay-sabay kaming nagtawanan nang mahuli kami. Pero ang nakakapagtaka ay kahit makalagpas na siya, ilang ulit pa rin ang dungaw niya sa amin. Eh di parang, "trip ata tayo noon." Sinundan namin ng tingin yung guy hanggang sa nakumbinse namin yung isa naming kaibigan na sundan siya talaga para ayaing makipagkape or whatever. Bumalik si friend na hindi bitbit si Kuya. Ang pangalawang tagpo ay noong papalakad na kami sa EDSA kung saan sasakay ang mga kaibigan ko. Tinagos namin ang Greenfield papunta sa direction ng Rob Forum. Sa bandang Flair pa lang may nakipagtitigan na sa aming lalaki. Yung isa naming kaibigan ang tumawag sa aming atensyon. Sabi niya, tigil lang daw muna kami a...

What 2012 taught me..

Yesterday night, my friends and I went out for dinner. During our talk a friend suggested to share our year-end evaluations. Since I've already blogged about how my year went, I was quick to answer his question. His next topic was to complete the statement: 2012 taught me to.... I haven't really thought of the lessons or general theme of the closing year so I got to think about my answer. And here's what I shared. "2012 taught me to just keep on trying. Maybe I'll succeed, maybe I won't. No matter what the outcome may be, what's important is that I have tried that I have exerted effort to reach my dream. Even though I take things a day at a time, not really making long term plans, I still have goals for whatever opportunities and I would make every step to take advantage of that chance. I believe that it's better to have tried (in love, in career, and in life) than to regret not trying at all." So that's it. And with this, I end my 2012 ...
