Seth Godin and Tom Peters said it all. This sums up why I blog. I will write a detailed blog post soon on how blogging has changed my life. Maybe I will inspire more people to blog as well. I have taught some of my friends how to blog, I have “inspired” them. I recently found out that “some” of them have been copying everything I do. But right now that does not irritate or annoy me one bit (although at first I did felt that way)- it actually makes me happy to see them “copy” me because it’s really flattering and I know that I will always be the first one and the original one. It gives me joy to think that I have also helped change their lives. You know who you are dear/s.
Nonoy Tim went home so I had the day to bond with Monicay again. Went to Spa Riviera for a back scrub and body massage. Then I met up with Monicay at SM Delgado. Went to SM City, had lunch at KFC and Monica got her hair trimmed. Then Mimay was there! Weeee! Of course gurl talk commenced but Mimay had to go because she was with her sister and nephew. So Nicay and I went to B’Code to try out their crepes and pizza. The place had a great ambiance, it was actually relaxing and the view was nice. Maybe because it was a Sunday and no teenagers were around. Haha! The food was satisfactory. The crepes were so-so but the pizza was awesome! The prices were reasonable and affordable. And the waiter who served us was really nice and accommodating so we’re definitely going back there again. I will bring Tim there because I know that he’ll like the pizza with it’s green toppings.
Fall in love or fall in hate.
Get inspired or be depressed.
Ace a test or flunk a class.
Make babies or make art.
Speak the truth or lie and cheat.
Dance on tables or sit in the corner.
LIFE IS DIVINE CHAOS. Embrace it.
Forgive yourself. Breathe.
AND ENJOY THE RIDE…
I stumbled upon this photo on Facebook when Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao defeated Miguel Cotto on November 14th, 2009. Pacquaio won the WBO Welterweight Title and WBC Diamond Belt. I don’t know who made this photo but it still stirs the Pinoy pride in me everytime I look at it. Pacman does that every time he wins a fight. So I’m posting this photo here in my blog so everyone who drops by will also remember that pride and be inspired by Pacquiao.
My cousin Mhei Gunn shared this video with me today. This speech was delivered by Anthony Corvino, a BS Political Science graduate of Binghamton University. Anthony was chosen to deliver the undergraduate student commencement remarks.
Watch the video I embedded below to know why we love Anthony Corvino!
I know some people are not really too happy about my “extra-curricular” activities. They don’t approve of my traveling and the other stuffs I’m doing. But you know what, I don’t really care what they say (if you know me well enough then you must know that already.)
You know what I tell everyone who asks why I am being or acting the way I am right now? I just say: Leave me along because unlike you I am living my life to the fullest. I’m just making the most out of my life, enjoying the moment and savoring the fruits of my hard work. I deserve to be happy. and I have learned not too long ago that life is really short. We’ll never know when our time is going to be. But I know that when that time comes there won’t be too much regret inside my heart because I have lived my life to the fullest!
So please just let me live my life. And please get a life of your own while you’re at it!
PS.
I am gradually practicing frugality. Yes I really am, believe it or not.
I was working earlier and I stumbled upon something that made me want to reassess my personality type. Before I thought I was an ENFJ but I guess that type was wrong or do personalities change? I think I am an ENFP. I am going to ask my close friends if they agree with me.
You are an ENFP (Extravert, Intuitive, Feeler, Perceiver)
Curious, energetic, adaptable, and creative, ENFPs like considering unconventional approaches. They enjoy batting around ideas and finding creative solutions and are energized and intrigued by new possibilities and anything out of the ordinary. ENFPs tend to be talkative, enthusiastic, playful, and generally fun-loving people. Warm and caring, ENFPs have strong personal values upon which they base most decisions. Conversations with ENFPs can be very circular as they excitedly move from one topic to the next, making connections and associations.
Unconventional and occasionally irreverent, they pride themselves on their uniqueness and originality. Optimistic, and spontaneous, ENFPs have a strong sense of the possible. For them, life is an exciting drama. Because they are so interested in possibilities, ENFPs see significance in all things and prefer to keep lots of options open.
This is what I’ve been listening to in the past few days. So what do you think am I feeling?
“Ironic”
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you. When you think everything’s okay and everything’s going right. And life has a funny way of helping you out when you think everything’s gone wrong and everything blows up in your face. And isn’t it ironic … don’t you think?
“You Learn”
You live you learn. You love you learn. You cry you learn. You lose you learn. You bleed you learn. You scream you learn. You grieve you learn. You choke you learn. You laugh you learn. You choose you learn. You pray you learn. You ask you learn. You live you learn.
