You say I'm like the weather

You say I'm like the weather.

I'm too unpredictable.

I can be bright & warm like the sun.

I can be gloomy like it's about to rain.

I can also be as terrible as the storms come - surprisingly bringing you down.

You say I'm like the weather.
I'm too unpredictable.
But even if it's raining, you know the sun is always somewhere hidden beyond the clouds.
The heart always burns out brighter after the rain.

Stay unpredictable.

wall of ice

I tried to reach out to you today, in multiple ways. But you only brushed me off because you're busy or something else... This scene looks like a replay, trying to look back on the other times this happened.

I may be reading too much into it, but I think that you are mad at me. I wasn't sure so I asked. But you are cold and detached. 

Then when you left without even talking to me, I knew then that something's not right between us.

I wanted to go after you so we can talk. But I held back for I was afraid I'd get rejected again. 

Rejection really cuts you inside. No matter how high you hold your chin up or how wide your smile could go, the eyes won't lie. They'll tell you I'm hurting.

You might say I'm overreacting. That this may really be nothing, but I know it isn't. You usually tell me why. Now, you didn't. So what's different? What's wrong?

Tell me so I can fix it. If I can't, at least I can try. Please don't put up this wall of ice. I don't have enough warmth in me to melt it down.

Make me your radio,
Turn me up when you feel low,
This melody was meant for you,
So sing-a-long to my stereo

can you be my cotton?

I'd like to believe I'm an absorbent cotton. I'd rather read and ingest all the ideas the author is trying to message whether indirectly or not; than sharing what I've gathered. Hmm. No, I don't think so... Really! I'm quite the opposite.

Sometimes when I get excited, I tell the next person what it is about or how I think about it. Ha ha! I can get annoying like that, but my friends tell me I'm just being adorable. But mind you, these friends love me too much to care my idiosyncrasies.

Enough of that. Let me get to my point now. One of the blogger/author that I have kept in my reading list is and has been Jessica Zafra. The latest post that I've read from her blog just hit close to home. Why? Allow me to list them. But before you go any further, please read up on the post so you and I will be on the same page. Don't worry, I will wait for you here... Go!!!

So, I assume you HAVE already read the post, right? Here you go...

BPO industry. This has been my home for 6 years now; and I'm happy. We all know it gives good pay and a lot of room for growth faster than other companies, mainly because they focus more on the performance and not just tenure. So young people can get promoted and reach the same rung in the ladder that other people of age may have worked for, for so long. For me, it's not actual promotion but the opportunities I am given to develop the skills that I need for my job is way better.

This kind of work demands flexibility. You have to be flexible enough to work during the nights but sometimes you can be called to report during the days. I am a big fan of working at night. I'm not necessarily nocturnal. I just hate the traffic and heat in the morning.
 

 

I have always admired people who value the same principle as I do. Which is basically, "Mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter." In one word - indifference. This really does get to the other person - the hater. It is the best revenge, after all.

My final message is this: Be happy. If you already are, don't stick with people who pull you down. If they are getting to you; then say your piece. Don't be afraid to speak your mind. They may act superior than you, but really, it just came from a source of inferiority within them. They may just be plain jealous of you.

my dream wedding

I have just been recently engaged, and it's the greatest thing! My boyfriend was the sweetest --- he bought me a beautiful engagement ring. And the proposal? Well, we were both in tears. We were both so giddy about the next chapter of our lives.

Now, for the mean time, I want to share what I want for my wedding.

Well, I haven't really been dreaming about the actual wedding. Rather, I have my own wish for the reception. It's actually simple. I don't want the traditional reception of a Filipino church wedding that I have usually attended. It's not that I have something against tradition. But I just want to have fun! 

What I really want to do is just eat AND listen to this guy sing. That's it. I want a mini concert on my wedding. Is that too much to ask? I hope not.
