Revelation

Sometimes, some things are just too good to be true.

I heard one revelation a few days ago and it made me think so hard that I thought will make my brain explode. It was so strong that it blew me away leaving me speechless.

"Err", "hmmm", "Ahmmm"...those were the words that I can only think of for a few minutes after the story has been revealed.

Is this a test or what?

What the heck! I need to take things slowly. No rush! No impulsiveness or whatsoever!

How am I doing right now???
I'm alright....I'm not gonna stress myself with this issue. Life is short and I have better things to do.

Do I deserve this?

I don't know if I deserve this. I would be needing some male POV's regarding this matter.

Once, a guy cried trying to confess his love for me. I do understand that some men or rather men in general are not that open when it comes to showing their emotions. I guess, men these days are watching too much OPRAH and DR. PHIL that they're learning to open up exposing the contents of their amygdalas.

To tell you seriously, I am not really that comfortable YET when it comes to this issue but I do understand. Last night, I had the same experience and it just came out of nowhere. Our conversations were fine when suddenly, he just opens up and there you go, the fountain just keeps on flowing.

I feel that I don't deserve this kind of treatment. I would tell someone that I like him but I would never accept that a guy will cry just because that he's so deeply in love with me and would love if I'm gonna return the same "favor" with them. This is just too overwhelming for me to accept. I am just a normal, typical woman who would like to someday meet the love of my life.

I would really need to consult someone regarding this... It's so confusing me as of this very moment!

2006? My year???

It's too early to say that...

It's just that when this year started, lot of unexpected things has been happening to me. What I mean is when it comes to my dreams, goals, and aspirations.

For all my beloved readers who knew what I went through about my roller coaster ride to nursing school, I appreciate your patience.. listening to my endless cries...

After talking to Robbie earlier today, I received a call from Grossmont College's Nursing Office asking if I'm interested to register for this semester's class. God knows how long I waited for this opportunity and here it is laid right in front of me. Guess what I told them? I declined the offer. Why?? The class started yesterday and I still need to catch up on things, do my med exams, my immunizations and other stuff. She did understand the situation so she just put my name on Fall semester's list.

I never expected I get the call so soon. I have plans and I'm not willing to start all over again. My parents supported me on this when I told them. If I accepted the offer, I won't be getting my degree in Psych on May and I'm still gonna be starting the program on Fall anyways.

It's just so amazing. Everything is just falling into their places...

Rescheduled Flight

I was supposed to pick up my brother at the airport yesterday but his flight was rescheduled due to snow storm. Hopefully, he'll be here on Friday if the weather condition becomes better. He's staying at my aunt's place in Cavite. Poor boy, he's all out of money. Apparently, he's still jolly due to the fact that his vacation got longer.

Anyways, the whole family we'll be going to LA on weekend to celebrate my nephew's first birthday. Jireh needs to be here because we'll be staying at my Uncle's place and be visiting Disneyland. Thank heavens! After 6 long years, I will be finally stepping to Mr. Disney's place. My brother and I will be driving so I better prepare myself to congested LA. Hahaha. I'd rather pick this than to drive along EDSA which my froggy buddy suggested that he'll let me drive during my stay in PI. HECK NO! That's my final answer!

School is doing alright. I finally figured out what courses to drop and what to keep. I started working yesterday and everybody is happy to see me (Hmmm, really?)I am back on track, the usual Abby life.

Another Yey for me when I decided to think less about the current issue regarding my starting-to-bloom lovelife.

One more yey for me when one of my bestfriend is expecting! Another "inaanak" will be on the way....I did tell Noriel that she maybe pregnant when I was in the Philippines. She was so different and I just feel like there's something goin on with her. Heck! I'm right! She's happy and his boyfriend is happy....so that's enough for me to know that everything will be alright for her....

Oh.. I forgot, I need to get some lunch...Bye

Didn't We Almost Have it All

Remember when we held on in the rain
The night we almost lost it
Once again we can take the night into tomorrow
Living on feelings
Touching you I feel it all again

Chorus:
Didn't we almost have it all
When love was all we had worth giving?
The ride with you was worth the fall my friend
Loving you makes life worth living
Didn't we almost have it all
The night we held on till the morning
You know you'll never love that way again
Didn't we almost have it all

The way you used to touch me felt so fine
We kept our hearts together down the line
A moment in the soul can last forever
Comfort and keep us
Help me bring the feeling back again

(Chorus)

Didn't we have the beat of times
When love was young and new?
Couldn't we reach inside and find
The world of me and you?
We'll never lose it again
Cause once you know what love is
You never let it end

Clearing of the Mind

Thanks a bunch to Kuya Ariel.
He helped me clear up my mind about my so called "love dilemma".

I'm still on "vacation mode".
In short, a slacker.

I am pretty sure that I'm gonna have a very tough semester this time. Due to overcrowding at SDSU, I only got in to this one class from my wishlist. The rest...hmmm.. let's see... yeah I'm doomed!
I'll be in school TTH from 8AM til 8PM. Isn't that great! *yuck*

I enrolled in this class in which some of you guys will say "Darn Abby! you're weird!"
Heck! I'm not wierd. Listen...I am taking a class named Psychology of Human Sexual Behavior. Yup..heard it right!
I dunno if I would love taking that class or what. Everything about S-E-X is laid under the sun. It's like Sex Education made into Porn! Hahahaha.
I was like "GOLLY! MY VIRGIN EARS!!!!" What did I get myself into????
But hey! I'm gonna keep it! I can't really relate to the topics but I am so willing to learn and know stuff about it. See what happens when you ran out of "decent" classes to take?

I also two challenging class such as Neuropsychology and Cognitive Neuroscience. Then I have the Abnormal Psych which I think I'll enjoy coz I love mental illnesses!

Twelve units to graduate. That's my motto for this semester.

Have a good weekend to everybody!

PS> My nephew turned one today... and my "eyecandy" will be turning 30 tomorrow! :p

My year ender post

Hahaha.. not right now...
Prolly tomorrow night.
I did nothing today. The stuff that were planned, were completely thrown down the drain. I felt sluggish and weak and tired and all I want to is to lie down and think.

I did iron my clothes and uniforms though. I decided to go back to work next week instead of the 1st of February. I'm not my usual self lately. Tons and tons of thoughts have been in my mind since I got back.

Plans about my future, my educational goals, my career, and heck! my lovelife.

I was never so open with my lovelife coz I know I never had a real one in 24 years!
Yet, I'm into this one for the very first time and I'm going ON and OFF if I wanted the strings or not....

I've been praying to God that if he's gonna be showing me the ONE it'll run smoothly. It'll be just one piece completing a puzzle.

I dreamt about this, a month before I left for PI. Never thought that I'm gonna actually experience this in real life.

Somebody came in my life last night. I don't know if it's some sort of temptation or what but he just makes everything all messed up in my mind right now.
I never thought that the qualifications I once jotted down in my diary about my ideal man truly exists in one person. But it actually did! Ok fine, we haven't known each other that long yet but as we exchange stories about life, I can tell that he actually does have all of it!

As of now, the set-up is to get to know more about each other. But according to him, he's willing to talk to my parents about asking their permission to court me. Isn't that sweet??? (That's number 2 on my list!)

I don't wanna be unfair and I don't want hurt anybody...
What am I gonna do????

Hmmm... bad girl

Is it okay to date another guy????

Whoa, dating game... I'm not so familiar about it!

I suck!

Broke.. sooo broke!

Here's my whining again...
Nah. I'm not whining ok?
It's just that I need to go back to work and start working my ass off. My bills are starting to pile up and all I've been doing these past days are slack off and sleep.

Spend $307 for my four tires. It was a good deal coz the tires I got were Michelin brand. I love Costco! I will be renewing my membership soon. Wholesale retailers are the best! But hey, I still love Walmart and Target!

Went to school today to buy my parking permit and textbooks. Darn! that's another $300.

Two things I keep in mind these days that helps me ignore my financial stress: financial aid and income tax return!

Life is great!

Sleep Maniac

I've been sleeping like a maniac since I got here from PI.
I woke up at 1 PM today.

I need to get back on track. What I mean is when it comes to my sleeping habits. School will be starting on Wednesday and you know what that means.. Crazy days are here again.

I have to have my oil changed and tires changed tomorrow.

All I've been thinking is the Philippines. I'm planning to visit on 2008. Hahaha! It's funny coz I just got back and now, I'm thinking of going back again!

Well, I just need to be as busy as I can so that I won't be noticing any lonely days and nights.

I never thought that I'll be into this since I'm not in favor of this kind of set-up. But look, here I am. He's gonna be leaving, too on the 1st of February and we have no clue when are we going to hear from each other again. No text messages and no fone calls either. *sigh* I feel so blue....

I'm Up so Early

Yeah, you heard it right! I was up so early
I have to register for my class Pacific time... I've been here at the computer rentals for about 2 hours already...It sucks! why??? Coz our freaking webportal at school is so freaking messed up! It's so slow and it keeps on telling that the page can't be displayed! I have one class that I needed so bad to graduate and it's closed already! I emailed the professor hoping that he'll give me an add code. I told him that this will be my third class from him and hoping that my loyalty will help me to get that add code. Hahahaha
Then, I still need to register for 4 classes yet, I only got one since I started staring at the monitor.
Oh please!!!! I just need 12 more units to graduate on May!
I am not considering the professors no more! as long as I could get in to 4 classes, fine with me. Hard or easy, doesn't matter! I just need that freaking 12 units!

I still have plenty of shopping to do before I leave.....Luv it luv it!

Few more days

Time goes by so fast! next thing I know.. I'm back to the US

Just dropping by to say HELLO to my frequent readers...

Tuesday, January 03, 2006

I'm so bouncy!!!

My schedule has never been open! I've been thinking of getting more sleep.

I wish I have the time to post what has been going on.
Sometimes things happen unexpectedly....Sometimes you think you know that you know what's gonna happen next but sometimes it does not end up the way you wanted it to be.

I'm kinda having a bit of LQ with my best friend...so that's not a good news...

Yet, I can still say that I'm happy because somebody makes me happy.......

We'll be in Boracay tomorrow!
