This last December 18, 2010 was our supposed to be 2nd anniversary. I checked my mail, like what I always do, and found read an instruction telling me to get the bear he gave me, almost a year ago, and check beneath it’s dress.
Guess what I found? It’s a ring! Wow, I said. But suddenly thought, what was that for? We’re apart from each other, we no longer have this...
The past few days have been rough. It has been a whirlwind of mix ups, miss speaking and a lack of sleep. I was sitting and my room staring at a budget I was trying to put together for my semester abroad when my friend walked in and took over. She sat on my lap and took over my computer as we went through each thing on the budget. She made it work while making me laugh and feel 1000x better. It...
On toy guns and time traveling.
While reading the first sentence of The Life of Pi, sitting like an Indian on the floor of National Bookstore and waiting for my groupmates to arrive (We’re supposed to buy our gifts for our Secret Santa activity tomorrow), a little boy nudged me with his toy gun, making real life gun sounds with his voice. I was caught off guard, I usually let all my defenses down when I’m reading a...
At work, a man stopped me to ask if we carried a certain product. As he was explaining the product to me, he stopped mid-sentence and said, “Wow. You have beautiful eyelashes.” It was sweetest thing anyone had said to me that day and made me smile for the rest of the day.
I was able to buy a book that’s worth PhP 10.00 and that is so cheap. Well BEIGE, the title of the book, is kind of awesome, since I’m not yet done reading it, and I can actually relate to the protagonist. It made my day even though I just sat at the food court while reading the book with my earphones on and just ignore the world. :)
I was really really really sad, but then my mp3 randomly played Everything is Beautiful from Kylie Minogue and that just made my day.
thrifty boyfriend
My boyfriend and I haven’t agreed on most things recently and only recently did we make up. So a couple days ago, I went to the thrift store to find a camera, after finding the world’s most perfect camera, I rang it up to the cashier only to find out that there was no price (meaning that I couldn’t buy it); therefore, they took it from me and I was heartbroken. So after telling...
Beautiful Feeling.
Last saturday, while walking down the street on my way to my mom’s house, I happened to intersect with a group of 3 people. When I’ve already passed by them, I heard one say, “Her outfit’s pretty.” I smiled.
Then, when I was about to leave from my mom’s house to attend a party, she told me, “You’re beautiful.” Again, I smiled.
Afterwards,...
The thing that made my day today was meeting my best friend’s step-grandfather for the first time and hearing them talk to each other. Hearing the admiration and confidence Scottie has in his step-grandfather made me smile wide. Also, sitting in his room for two hours scrapbooking and writing and filming for our movie. Seeing my best friend, in general.
Everyone's turned cartoon!
I opened my facebook account this evening and was surprised to see that everyone has turned into their own favorite cartoon character from childhood including an attached message that read:
Change your Facebook profile picture to a cartoon from your childhood, and invite your friends to do the same. Until Monday next week, we hope to see less human faces on Facebook, but an invasion of...
Though I had an argument with my friend at midnight, we were able to fix it and spend the day together. We sit beside each other while on class, and shared smiles during break. We look so sweet, and that just made day. :”>
My SAT results
I got a big surprise today. Finding out I got 2166 points made me really happy. I’m one step closer to be a doctor - make one of my dreams come true. That made my my day.
I don't understand people who don't like children.
Whenever people say children are jerks… I’m surrounded by children, and I just don’t see it.
I’m a teacher’s assistant in a fifth grade classroom, and I always have the most amazing time. I love the children, they’re all incredibly sweet and bright. But, I always have to leave a little early because that’s when my Dad shows up.
Tonight, hours later, when...

new acquaintance :)
i went to church a while a go to attend the mass at around 6:45pm. my friend was not able to come with me because he has some errands to do so i just went alone. there was a part in the ceremony where people hold hands and usually, when people don’t know the person sitting beside them, they won’t bother to hold their hand… but, i was sitting beside this little girl and she...
Saturday night.
We had saturday classes, so I was wearing my uniform when I went to the mall with two of my guy friends. We have this Health project where we had to make a baby book, and one of the things we need to do is to know how much we need to spend. That includes the pregnancy test.
So, we went to the drug store and I asked how much it is, and a girl beside me was looking at me with her strange look. She...
We made her smile.
Last Thursday, November 25, we had a surprise birthday gift for our friend. I didn’t know, till now, that it was her first time to receive a surprise, and she was just so happy that it was from her friends. I honestly loved the smile she gave us while receiving her gifts, and she actually made us happy, too. :)
I received a letter today. And I like this part.
I just want to share this to you. Everytime we’re going to cross the street, I like the feeling when you hold my arm. You might find it weird but it’s true. It’s like I have a little sister trusting me that I can take her to the other side of the road safely. :)
Just made my day :)
I find it amazing how simple things make people’s day. The little things we don’t ask for, yet hope for. Such as a smile, a stranger holding a door for you, speaking with someone you haven’t in a long time. I was having a bad day and on my routine to going home, which was taking a public transportation. We all heard that bell chime in, which meant one of two things: something...
Litte conflicts
Though we have these difference that leads to little conflicts, I just realized that it can really harm our own friendship. But, we were able to talk about it, and awesomely fix the problem. We became open about each others feelings, and honestly tell the things we really want to say. Everything is okay now, and at least, with this, we now know how to manage such things if this happens again, in...
oh high school boys...
this morning i walked from our house to the subdivision’s gate and i saw 2 cute high school boys. i’m always shy so i covered my face with my umbrella. when they passed by me, they said “hi idol!!” i was like, WTH??? it made me smile though.. =)
You making me smile every time we talk makes my day.
This last saturday
She was mad because we fought and everything changed when she texted me “I miss you so much”. Then after that text, it’s like nothing happened. No fights and drama. It made my day
MMD
Went straight to church with Karen, Mae and Yay after my tiring hospital duty. I was about to get out of the church when this elderly lady nudged me and said, “You have dirt on your hair, come on, let me remove it.”
I don’t even know her, but she reluctantly fixed my hair off this dirt which I don’t even know if it’s bird poop or lizard poop.
I thanked her, I...
8+ hours of homework
I work my ass off everyday. Today was different. I literally spent all day doing homework. I woke up thinking about homework. I ate and thought about homework. Hell, I didn’t even get to shower today.
And all it took was, “Honey?” and everything was okay again. No, better than okay. It made my day.
He knew.
I was talking to a guy on skype after not seeing him for about two months. I said something about wanting to something and I told him to pick the color I should get it in. He responded and told me yellow- because its my favorite color. I don’t even remember telling him that.
Friday night
I was with my ex-boyfriend/friend and his Mom and had dinner with them. I didn’t expect that everything will still feel the same, like before. And, it was really a wonderful night.
Worth remembering. :)
she was wearing silver sandals
A little girl, maybe three years old, came into my work today with her mother. While the mother was looking at Jane Austen novels, the girl sidled shyly up to me and said, directed mostly to the floor at my feet,”Nice lady, you have pretty hair. Please can you show me the Spot books?”
Today I was lost in my own little world thinking about how I screwed things up with another guy for the billionth time. During Precalculus, one of the most popular boys randomly said in front of the whole class, “Valerie, you look beautiful today,” and actually meant it. Made my day for sure. (:
Long time no see.
I was heading at the Administrator’s Office in our school earlier, when I almost bumped at my crush. He was looking at me, I saw his face, and admitted to myself that I miss him ‘cause I haven’t seen him for days.
It really made my day. :)
10 pesos
I went to a mall today to do some grocery with my sister. I passed by a stall with the prettiest bags. I picked one and asked the middle-age saleslady how much was it. While pondering whether to buy it or not, she asked what the groceries were for. I said it’s for my birthday tomorrow. Then I decided to buy the bag and gave her the money. When she came back, she whispered to me,...
Ukulele girl.
So, sometimes I like to sit outside at school and play my ukulele. Sometimes people will stop and listen and the occasional one will wait til the song is finished and introduce themselves to me.
The other night in the library I walked past a guy and he was like… “Youuurrrr’eee… marty…. marta… ukulele girl!” He then told me how we had met a couple weeks...
A guy gave me his sweater… It was sweet, and it smelt like Old Spice♥
FB chat
Well I was supposed not to open my FB today, but for some reason I opened it…Last night, while we were stuck in traffic, and while listening to the radio Total Eclipse of the heart was being played-this song is a memorable one, because my best friend and I used to sing our heart out with this song. So in short, I miss her so much. Now, (it seems like eternity since we haven’t chat) we...
i saw you happy
you are good at what you do and i think you love it the way i love other things. and i love when you’re happy.
Reservation for Harry Potter and the Deathly...
My dad already have us reserved at Imax this coming saturday. Made my week. Lol. :D
a friend from elementary school chatted me today on facebook because a girl had cheated on him and broke his heart. he knows my boyfriend and i have been together almost two years, and most of those two years we’ve spent apart because we attend two different colleges.
he chatted me because he said i have the most stable and faithful relationship he’d ever seen and needed to know that...
I delivered a bunch of pizzas to an elementary school class today and when I walked in they all cheered for me like I was a rockstar!
It’s not voyeurism.
And he had to leave, for it was time to go. Seated next to each other, no words were exchanged, nor were they needed, just a look, a look that said it all. A look that said, “I love you”. Just small, subtle gestures, enough to show how much they cared for each other. No lustful kissing, no embarrassing public displays of affection. Just a hand on the knee, a glance and a smile. I watched, an...
I’m a tutor for a highschool boy. Everytime I come to his house to have our lesson, he always pulls a chair for me and asks me “how’s your day?”.
AT COLLEGE
Every boy seemed to open doors for me whenever possible.
That make me smile and makes my day.
So I started opening doors, with a smile, for other whenever possible.
In hope that I’d make their day SPECIAL.
Kindness DOES exist!
children on a college shuttle
Two children sat on the bus today, looking like perfection. The girl’s dark hair was cut into a bob, all straight edges falling on the curve of her 6-year-old head, wearing a puff-sleeved light blue polo, lacy white socks, blushing pink mary-janes. Her brother, agent of chaos, perhaps 8 years old, a blue button-down and khakis, brown shoes, trying to tear away his sister’s Chinese edition of Le...
:)
I was waiting to turn left of a parking lot and there was a line of about a million cars, and one person let me go ahead of them so I wouldn’t be waiting forever. Made my day! Especially because I always try to let people go whenever I can… It’s nice to see that come back around :)
Just One Rose
Last Thursday, while I was walking down the steps of the Palma Hall of our University, a good looking guy dressed in black and white striped formal wear suddenly approached me, ecstatically greeted me, “Good Morning!” handed me a rose and smiled. I and he nodded our heads to each other as I went on to my way and he went to on his way to hand more flowers.
I’m not a big...
smile
i saw a side of a friend i have never seen before…
I saw an old friend today carrying her baby. I smiled knowing she loves her baby so much while singing and staring at her own child. She’s a mom, at 18. Despite her age, I know she can be a good mother.
1. Acing a university interview.
2. Surviving my final school exam and finishing high school forever.
3. Finding out a guy who fucked with me just broke up with his girlfriend.
This cute little guy I helped find his water jug came back to find me just so he could say Thank you :)
