All of us experienced different kinds of heartaches. It's just natural since there is a little percent of it that you'll be able to got it right the first time. In fairness, I know some who are just lucky. But to those who are unfortunate who finds the wrong ones first (including me of course - that's why I wrote this article), I think I will be able to help a little during the MOVING ON stage. Some are gradually letting go via music. Music calms the mind and the heart. It also have great lyrics to relate to. Others read quotes and advices. Actually, I compiled ones which did a great impact to what I was feeling back then. It somehow comforted me and taking those bad experiences as a lesson which I could learn from and prevent it in the future.
*Forgive your enemies...but REMEMBER THEIR NAMES!
*Treat the one that hurt you like a dog. Patting it on the head saying 'Nice doggie!'... till you can find a rock.
*You can't have everything, where would you put it?
*A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.
*I can only please one person per day. Today is not your day. Tomorrow doesn't look too good either.
*When the blind leadeth the blind, get out of the way.
*Keep smiling - it makes everyone wonder what you're up to.
*There's always a light at the end of the tunnel...just hope it's NOT a train!
*If two wrongs don't make a right, try three.
*When everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.
*I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder.
*They say that if you love someone you should let them go, but they never say what to do when they don’t come back.
*Heavy hearts, like heavy clouds in the sky, are best relieved by the letting of a little water.
*Many promising reconciliations have broken down because, while both parties came prepared to forgive, neither party came prepared to be forgiven.
"You tried, and you failed, so the lesson is, never try.
*To the man who only has a hammer, everything he encounters begins to look like a nail.
*Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there.
*I’d rather live with a good question than a bad answer.
*A woman is like a teabag. You never know how strong she is until she gets into hot water.
*Some people grumble because roses have thorns. I am thankful that thorns have roses.
*In time, the pain it took to stay, became greater than the pain it took to go.
*Never miss anyone from your past...there's a reason they didnt make it to your future.
*Forgive but don't forget so that you won't relive and regret.
*If only promises could erase the past, I could open my heart enough to take you back...but we've been down this road, time and time again...and I've learned the hard way, how the story always ends.
*Watching you walk out of my life doesn't make me bitter about love...but instead makes me realize that if I wanted so much to be with the wrong person...how wonderful it will be when the right one comes along.
*Don't let someone become a priority in your life, when you are JUST an option in their life.
*Love is in the air... if only I had a plane right now.
*You know your in love when you don't want to fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.
*If you love me, let me know. If not, please gently let me go.
*First love is only a little foolishness and a lot of curiosity.
*All change is not growth, as all movement is not forward.
*“I don't pretend to know what love is for everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me; love is knowing all about someone, and still wanting to be with them more than any other person, love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including the things you might be ashamed of, love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone, but still getting weak knees when they walk into a room and smile at you.”
*Let go and let GOD.
*Out of site and out of mind.
*He who expects nothing will never get disappointed.
*God puts a tear in our eyes so that He can put rainbow in our hearts.
*Start by STARTING.
*"Sometimes, you have to accept the fact that some people are going to stay in your heart forever... even if you are gone in theirs."
*I'm holding on by a thread.
*"Sometimes it's better to let go without knowing the real reason... because it will surely hurt more to find it UNREASONABLE."
*"Which way are you going? The left one where there is nothing right? Or the right one, where there is nothing left?"
*"Love is... giving someone the power to break your heart, but trusting her/him not to."
*The only constant is change.
*Don't make promises. Make it happen.

Christmas is a time wherein some people visited their provinces. This was what my sister and I did during our Christmas break. As always, I took "Bonamine" tablet before the trip because I have motion sickness. We were really excited to see our uncle, auntie, cousins and grandmother who usually cries and beg for us to come visit her. At the age of 82, she can no longer see clearly and hoping to glimpse even just a shape-shadow of us before her vision fades away entirely.
On the way, we saw beautiful landscapes. I snapped a few pictures of it using my cellphone. Some part of the road were not yet cemented and bumpy that I was careful not to drop my cell while taking pictures.
It took us 4 hours to reach Candoni - a small town where my deceased mother was born. Little had changed since we left 2 years ago. I still saw familiar faces but was not able to remember their names. The plaza already had walls built around it. There were more tricycles than before. Less trees and more houses.
We greeted our relatives except for our grandmother since she's taking a bath when we arrived. Our auntie said that she usually spent one and a half hour in the bathroom so we might as well eat first. We know she can no longer see clearly so we planned to play a trick on her. When she finally went out, we greeted her. As expected, she was not able to recognize us and we continued to play along. Finally, she realized that we are her grandchildren and cried. We then kissed and hugged her. We felt that she really misses us. She walks slowly and so frail looking. More wrinkled and droopy face. A lot had changed to her compared to the town. We spend most of the day talking.
I usually go to sleep at 1:00 am but on that time, I'm already looking for a bed at 10:00 pm. Maybe because there's nothing much to do. No internet, malls and TVs have bad reception. We also helped in the store since my relatives own one. I noticed that a lot of people buy coconut milk for their suman and kalamayhati. They also prefer cheaper products. Bihon instead of spaghetti. Plain margarine instead of branded butter. Nilugaw instead of salad. They want quantity not quality. There's also a time when I went to the kitchen. I saw them busy cooking kalamayhati. The woman asked the boy if he can taste it and tell her if she got it right. The boy dipped the spoon and tasted it but then tried to dip another. Without thinking, I just screamed "Don't put it back!" They were startled and a little confused. I laughed and explained that it might spoil the rest of the food.
In the morning, you'll have to wait for someone to fetch you water before you can take a bath. Same goes with washing the dishes. Water is not free-flowing from water pipes instead you have to get it from a river or a well.
When I straightened my hair using a flat iron, I noticed my cousins staring at me and very very curious. "It makes you hair straight and neat", I said. I let them try and nearly made me fell off my chair in laughter when I saw their eyes bulge and at the same time feeling their hair hot.
Since we have too much plenty of time, 2 of our cousins taught us 2 magic tricks. It somehow get us away from boredom. We also played games. Then came the sad part - time to go home. :(
Going home is the most excruciating part of every vacation. A part of us wants to go and another part wants to stay especially when we saw tears forming in our grandmothers eyes. We told her to not cry and she said she can't help it and it's just natural. I cupped her face and kissed her many times on the cheek and promised to call more often. It was really heartbreaking - wishing you can be at 2 places at once. Anyway we still went home because I have work the day after.
We spent 3 days and 2 nights in Candoni. When we arrived in the city, I can't wait to open my email. Only 3 days and I've got 132 email notifications, not to mention I have crops ready for harvest in farmtown and farmville. We were back to our daily routine but there were times flashbacks occur especially on the goodbye scene with our grandmother. Thinking back I guess I can say that Christmas "sa banwa" is bitter but at the same time sweet.

Mahdel, Kharisse, GB, Aiza and I planned to treat our other cousins together with an uncle and some of our aunties to watch New Moon. Since 5 of us will share the expenses, we ended up listing a total of 19 persons including ourselves. I carefully organized things like buying tickets one day earlier and thinking of what snacks we will be having inside the movie theater. Then came the planned day. The movie starts at 6:35 pm but I told them that it will start exactly 6:00 pm so that they will come early. Another thing is that in order for us to get the best seats and be settled before the movie starts. It worked! They arrived at 6:00 pm and the good part is we got seats closer to each other. ;)
Some of us already watched the movie. But who cares??? We can watch it over and over again. Of course, there were still gasping and sighs during the topless scenes of Jacob Black. I smiled in satisfaction when my relatives did the same. It means they were really into the movie.
At the end part wherein Edward asked Bella to marry him, I heard a clap coming from one person and was not able to have it going because she realized she was the only one doing it. Guess who??? One of my aunties. Hehehehe! We were all amused. ;) I looked back and she gave me a "thumbs up". It surely wiped away all the troubles I had for that day. We then have our pictures taken with the cut-out card boards of casts except for the oldies. They were shy to pose and think they are too old for that. Hahahaha!
We had a great time! Although it was fun, there will never be a next time for this. Whew! Very stressful! It's hard going out as a big group to see a big hit movie. I was busy checking that everyone have a seat and worried sick that some will be late and others might not be able to make it. At the end of the day, I was pooped out!

Love the part wherein a video was shown when he was about 10 years old and wearing a mickey mouse ear. So cute! ;)
Labels: new moon, taylor lautner
Here are the english translation of the questions in the video. Get to know more of Taylor Lautner. ;)
1) How often you shave each week?
2) How many times a day do you view yourself in the mirror?
3) Do you tan in the sunlight?
4) Do you howl at the moon? - A senseless question don't you think? I mean do you really believe Taylor is a werewolf in real life??? Duh!
5) Water or red wine with any meat?
I wish they added "Selena Gomez or Taylor Swift"? That would really put him in the hot seat! Hehehe!
Labels: new moon, taylor lautner
Everytime Taylor Lautner gets cornered on the issue of dating Taylor Swift, he just manages to escape - smiles, neutral comments and (ugh!!!) the silence answer. When will they speak out to end the issue??? Well if they do, hope he would say he is very much single cuz girls in all over the world will get depress if he's not. ;)

Check out the videos below. So hilarious! I guess I will have to sneeze so that he would take of his shirt to help me out. ;)
PART 1
Labels: new moon, taylor lautner
The big day finally came! This is it! Me and my cousin Khaye organized things to do 3 weeks ago, making sure that we will be able to go in during the first day. There will be a lot of people since netizens are also doing a countdown. To avoid being held on the line, we bought our tickets 2 weeks earlier. Well that surely is a sign how die-hard fan we are. ;) Although we are on a different team (Khaye on Edward and me on Jacob), we have the same goal and that is not missing the first showing.
At Last!!! Motorcyle Scene!!! I'm really looking forward to this part when I first saw this on trailer. As expected, when Jacob takes off his shirt, most of the girls (including me of course!) went: WHOAAA!!!! We had a great view then! Hahaha! I agree with Bella calling him as Mr. Biceps. Being a werewolf surely has its own advantages and it mostly goes to their built. As for me, long hair suits him well because it makes him look huge. Another thing is I totally like the way he flirts with Bella - looking at her teasingly. ;) We just can't get enough of the movie that we watched it 3x until my cousin complains of having a headache. :( There goes my cue!
I envy those who were able to have their picture taken with Taylor Lautner. Why am i born a million miles away from him??? Guess what my dream place is??? F O R K S ! ;)
