For 8 years, I've always maintained my 500+ average score when it comes to playing Scrabble... But alas, I think I've become dumb for who knows why because I was finally beaten by no other than PaJan! WAHAHAHAHA!!!
Oh yes, finally... napildi na gyud ko sa budlat!!!
BUDLAT WINS for the 1st time after 8 years of Scrabble!
Way hangitiw kiti ri bitiw!
And since the night was pretty young (Btw, this was Thursday night!) and it was raining, we decided to play another round. This time Timon and Pumbaa played because we were doing the BISAYA VERSION.
See if you can make sense out of the words we came up with.
HA HA HA!
And this is all because of...
eng eng eng...
HE HE HE!
P.S. Kini kay naa tas Ormoc, wa jud tay lain mahems.
My first blog since I arrived back home. I didn't want to blog until I didn't miss Cebu anymore but I feel that's going to take a pretty loooooong time. It's only been a week since I left the Queen City of the South and my heart bleeds every time I think about my apartment, the places I love to see, and the food I love to eat. *Drama mode*
So anyways, I'm blogging because I finally got together with my friends, the Barks & Co., and if it weren't for them really (and of course, my wonderful parents), my move back home would be suicide. HA HA HA! I posted some Kodak (eerrr, Nikon) moments from yesterday's and today's outing. CLICK HERE!
Apparently, I had a terrific time with my gang as always... and I really couldn't ask for more except that I do wish my bestfriend, DappyDapoieee, was also around. She is my sunshine... and I miss her soooo much already. :( Tomorrow should be BFF Monday and who the hey am I supposed to be with and where am I supposed to go to? *sigh*
But I did pamper myself tonight. I haven't really slept a wink at all since we got to the beach and with all the action that happened, I feel like a turtle carrying my own big shell right now.
So tonight, this ensued.
I deserved it. Hee Hee!
Can you see how I am desperately trying to text/send SMS? For tonight, everyone else is out and I think I'm the only one who has decided to stay in. Well, if you looked like me right now... LIKE A SHRIMP... would you even wanna step out of your house?
Energetic Doers are cheerful and spontaneous persons. They are charming and full of energy and real persons of action. They keep a clear head and the overview even in difficult situations. This makes them popular problem solvers. Their ability of being able to absorb and process information is phenomenal. Energetic Doers also have strong powers of observation and a keen sense when dealing with other people. They are very perceptive, witty and clever. They have a natural ability of convincing others of their point of view. Energetic Doers live completely in the here and now and make spontaneous decisions from one moment to the next. They love being together with other people and are sensuous, lively and amusing conversationalists. It is no problem for them to be the effervescent centre of attention at a party and they are generous, skilful and good hosts. They do not brood over consequences for long; they quickly grasp all the relevant facts, make a pragmatic decision and enforce that decision vigorously. Should a decision later turn out to have been wrong, one can always make new plans.
Energetic Doers magically attract fun and action. They need the kick - as far as possible with other people. Many representatives of this type have dangerous hobbies or go in for extreme sports. They quite consciously put themselves in dangerous situations again and again. At work too, Energetic Doers seek fun and variety above all. They are bored to death by routine, safety and calculability. Crises are their elixir of life and really bring their strong points to light. They react to new challenges flexibly and effectively. They gain their confidence from their imperturbable self-assuredness that they will be able to cope with them. Energetic Doers prefer practical activities which lead to visible results rather than theoretical fields of work. Endless discussions with colleagues quickly get on their nerves and they do not have the patience for interpersonal niceties. They say how something has to be done and that’s that!
Energetic Doers keep their friends in suspense with their wit, esprit and quickness in repartee. They mostly have a large circle of friends and acquaintances but often remain non-committal in their relationships. They expect a great deal of reliability and tolerance from their really good friends but are also willing to give the same to them. However, due to their spontaneous nature, they always remain a little surprising and unpredictable, also for their partners. Energetic Doers need a lot of space and time to themselves; they quickly feel hemmed in if their partners cling too strongly to them. But if you give them plenty of leeway, they are generous, cheerful and extremely imaginative life companions with whom you can have a lot of fun and enjoy life to the full. They do not avoid conflicts but address them openly and sometimes sparks can really fly. But this is typical for Energetic Doers and, afterwards, they are all the more devoted and loving.
**So I guess that explains it all... Need I say more??? -MyMaria
After an awakening, a life-altering moment, I got to thinking what life really meant for me and what I have to do with it. Sure enough, I got even more confused. Thoughts on life don't come really light; instead, imagine Atlas trying to carry the world on his shoulders. Not easy!
No, I'm not going to bore you with a talk about life because at 25, I am not yet confident with my own definitions. But I'll tell you... what you see is what you get from me, yet I'm not that transparent as some people think.
What am I saying? Nothing really. Ranting? Raving? Taking it out on this mundane blog? You see, I'm just trying to get my point across. I don't hate anyone... even if they hate me. I don't really give a crap what people say because I know myself better and He knows me and the things I'm trying to do right this time. Sure, everybody deserves a second chance... though I'm not really the type to give them. But give me a break! Just because I made a couple of unforgivable mistakes in the past, it doesn't make me a lesser person. In fact, what I have become is all thanks to the screw-ups I've made in my life. The wise and un-wise decisions, the right mistakes.
I'm not going to say I'm a perfect person now or that I am incapable of committing a crime. If the devil in the deep blue sea consumes me, then I might just have to give in... but the thing is, I'm NOT that kind of person anymore. I have grown better, stronger, and become someone you don't easily brush aside. Yes, I am stubborn. Yes, I am pretty crazy. But that's because I am me... still me.
A friend of mine sent me an SMS today and said: "Mai, this isn't to make u feel good ha... [cites a recent incident in my life]... they were all amazed and smiling... they very well remember how different u r, how unique, how beautiful... That is what u r to us... U never fail to make us smile even n ur most peculiar ways. We love u maia, basin wa ka kabaw ana"... and this just made my day!
I've been depressed recently; I know, you can tell with all the eating and the binge drinking. It's not even hormones I tell you. I just had to let it all out or I might explode and I seriously don't want to waste the rest of my life... I don't want to give up on this life just because I have fallen. I have been picked up and the pieces have been gathered. Starting today, I have decided. Never to give up. I have the strength I need now. From God, my friends, and my family. Don't dare stop me. Just don't dare me. I will fight to the very end. For what I believe that is right and for happiness.
Life is not something you can paint because it is too beautiful. When you figure it out, you muster enough strength and will to live so you can move on and give it your best shot. The most important thing in this life is giving back what has been given to you and more if you can. To not do the things you don't what other people to do to you. To inspire people and not drag them down. It's like metamorphosis. In the end, you'll become a really beautiful butterfly and everyone will forget what a fugly caterpillar you were.
This is my life now. A new one. A better one. With my renewed faith in God, there is nothing I can't do now. I trust Him... with this life. He will guide me and this time it will be for Him.
Dont worry motherItll be alrightAnd dont worry sisterSay your prayers and sleep tightAnd itll be fineLover of mineItll be just fineAnd lend your voices onlyTo sounds of freedomNo longer lend your strengthTo that which you wishTo be free fromFill your livesWith love and braveryAnd you shall leadA life uncommon... Come on you unbelieversMove out of the wayThere is a new army comingAnd we are armed with faithTo live, we must giveTo live...
