Thankful. ♥


I am thankful for alone moments at night where I get to clear my thoughts before going to sleep. I am thankful for the time I'm spending reading the bible because of this I feel like I'm maturing in my Christian walk. I am thankful for the morning coffee. For the colorful sticky notes I put in my journals. For the intensity of the game Survivor, my TV time these days are full of adrenaline. For the cold morning breeze, I love what the air's doing in my hair. I am thankful for the majestic sun I'm witnessing every morning as I go to work.


I am thankful for my dreams because it makes me really think of my future. For the failed dreams because it taught me to wait for God's perfect plan in my life. I am thankful for my understanding and loving heart. For the important lessons I picked up in life like choosing to stay calm despite the chaotic world around me. 


I am thankful for second chances. For Him who understands my mood swings endlessly. For His infinite amount of love towards me despite my being unworthy of all His sacrifices. This is my biggest thanksgiving of the year. He's the only One whom I give my trust completely because I know He'll never give up on me. Thank You, Lord. ♥


Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!


What are your thank you's this year? Thoughts? :)

Addicted to Emma Stone!! ♡


Eversince I saw her in Easy A! She's really the funniest girl in her generation. Her comedy attack is flawless and perfect. Plus her presence in the red carpet never disappoints. I really, really like her. Here are some of my favourite photos from http://justjared.buzznet.com/. Enjoy!

Libra


Libras are charismatic, diplomatic, idealistic and logical, which enables them to get along well with a wide variety of people.

Libras are the diplomats of the zodiac. They are charming, easy going, and willing to suppress their own needs and opinions in order to preserve good relations. Libras avoid conflict at all costs, and would rather give in than have an unnecessary argument (or in some cases, a necessary one).


Peace-Loving
Libras are reasonable, nonjudgmental and able to see both sides of an issue. As a result, they are often asked to intervene in disagreements between friends, family members and coworkers.

Arguments make Libras miserable. They crave peace and much of their lives are spent in the pursuit of harmony.


Logical and Idealistic
Libras tend to be thoughtful, and also require much food for thought. This is a sign with a high need for intellectual stimulation, and most Libras do a lot of reading.

A combination of logic, rationality and idealism ensures that many Libras are politically minded. Libras tend to process things intellectually rather than emotionally unless the ascendant falls in a water sign.


Romantic and Relationship-Oriented
Most Libras have a strong romantic streak. Sometimes they fall in love more with the idea of being in love than with the actual partner, and they have a tendency to put their partners on pedestals from which they inevitably fall. As a result, Libras are frequently disillusioned. Still, they keep trying because Libra is a sign that needs to be in a partnership to feel complete, and Libras are willing to put up with a lot in order to achieve this. But if the relationship is marked by constant discord, the Libra will often quietly slide out of it, in some cases finding another partner before completely disengaging from the first one. This tendency has earned the sign a reputation for being fickle. However, it is really a reflection of extreme conflict avoidance, as well as the need to be in a partnership at all times.


Extroverted and Flirtatious
Libras usually have no problem making friends, as they have good social skills and tend to be laid back and friendly. They are also easily influenced and highly susceptible to flattery, which allows others to take advantage of them.

Libras are usually flirtatious and often good-looking, so there is no shortage of potential partners for them. Their charm and tendency to flatter others ensure that many people will seek out their company.


Indecisive but Fair
Unless they have the ascendant in a fire sign, Libras can be incredibly indecisive, to the point of being so paralyzed by indecision that they are unable to take any course of action. This can make them appear wishy-washy or noncommittal to others. However, Libras are very decisive in one area. They are the champions of the underdog and will stick up for justice in all circumstances. They are usually very fair and they will not hesitate to speak up when they see injustice done to anyone, even someone they don’t particularly like.


Vain and Frivolous
Libras have a love of luxury that can make them frivolous. Vanity may drive them to spend large amounts of money on items that will improve their looks or objects that are only for show. They usually keep their bodies, their clothing and their homes very neat, and although Libras have a lazy streak, this never extends to personal grooming. It is very uncommon to find a Libra with unbrushed hair or wearing sloppy or dirty clothing. Libras tend to follow the trends of fashion, but only the ones that are elegant, classy and have some staying power.


Conflict-Avoidant
Libras have a strong need to be liked by others and will often suppress their own feelings and opinions in order to achieve this. They put their best face forward and don’t show extremes of emotion or make scenes in public. In some cases this may even extend to deception for the purpose of keeping the peace, though most often this deception is simply the Libra hiding his or her feelings from others. Many Libras will lie to avoid conflict, however.


Naturally Graceful
Most Libras are graceful with their bodies and have a talent for dance, skating or athletics. The energy levels of Libras tend to fluctuate, as though reflecting an inner need for balance. Thai chi, yoga, Pilates and other mind-body arts are particularly beneficial for Libras, as they help to bring about the mental and physical balance they crave.

My Birthday Getaway! ❤



It was a very happy celebration w friends who came to celebrate w me. It was so much fun to travel w friends! I think this is the first time that we travel together and every memories and pictures are worth keeping forever. ♥



Meeting time at my place was supposed to be 5am but we ended up going at 6. Hello, Filipino time! :p




The road to San Vicente (in Palawan - that's where we went to) is awfully ugly! It's not the most comfortable trip ever but what welcomed us in this town is this scene so all the body pains we felt all throughout the trip was vanished upon seeing this..


We only took a rest for about 30mins then embarked once more on a trip, this time we traveled by boat..


San Vicente has the best beach I've ever seen so far here in Palawan (although I've yet to see El Nido beaches). As in the water is crystal clear, it's so cool, the islands we've seen as we travel is so magnificent! It's the best. I cannot describe it through words. It's just drop dead gorgeous! (?)




Fail jumping shot. :p


We ate for a bit. The weather's so hot that when I dip my body in the beach, it was heaven!! I started to swim at 1pm so hello, sunburn! :p


We got tired swimming so we ended up doing our own photo shoot! Haha. Mas matagal pa ang photo shoot namin kesa sa paliligo sa dagat. :D


Left the island tired but super happy and feeling super blessed. :) While on the boat, seeing the beauty of God's creation, I kept thanking Him for the magnificence of the beauty I've witnessed. I also thanked Him for giving me my eyes to appreciate this wonderful, wonderful creation. ♥


No more resting activity! Our time is limited so we make the most of our time by going all over the places finding some street foods to eat. The joyride at night is so much fun and so much adventure! Every single second in this trip is full of fun and worthwhile kwento's. 


Day 2: Joyride again. Went to long beach. It's really long, mind you. I can't stop myself from saying the beach is truly beautiful. Some of the people I know who've been to Boracay said that this beach is much more beautiful than Boracay and looking at google for the beaches in Boracay, I can say that it doesn't come close. I am that proud of San Vicente beaches. :)


Travel time again! This time, we have to go back to Puerto Princesa na. :|




Way back home. On our way, I kept on thanking God once more for all the blessings He has given me and for the gift of friendship and family who's happy being w me and who always see the best of me despite my imperfections and weaknesses and inecurities. This birthday trip of mine is a trip worth keeping and I want to make this happen annually! Yaaay. Hopefully. :)


Kaya kailangang mag-ipon na ng husto para may panggastos sa mga susunod pang trips. Traveling is my passion and my dream. And now that it's finally happening, I want to make the most of it and I want to travel to learn more.

I'll just pray everyday that God would allow me and my friends/family to travel more often and expose ourselves the rich culture of other people which we can only learn from traveling. I had a blast this year on my birthday. Thank You, Lord my God once more! ♥

my wish for my birthday:
- to still have the sense of wonder that i had within me for the past 22 years.
- to start fighting for what i really want.
- to have a job that truly satisfies.
- to still have the hunger for learning something new.
- to stay awesome and happy. always. :)





and to You my Lord and Personal Saviour, thank You, thank You, thank You so much for guiding me all throughout my 22 years here on earth. it's been a tough life but because You are w me always, i'm taking all of these in stride. i take comfort w the thought that i don't have to go through life alone and it's more than enough.. thank You so much, Lord from the bottom of my heart. i know i couldn't make it through the rain without You. i'm forever grateful.. i cannot be afraid for the next, next years of my life because i'm not alone. i hope that i'm making You proud. i hope that Your light continues to shine because of me. i offer my all to You, Lord, because all of these are Yours. ♥



cheers to another 22 years ahead. :)

this girl is incredible. 




 
 
"I never imagined my life would ever turn out this way. I mean sure, I had my hopes but I never thought that I’d be performing in front of thousands of people or surrounded by a never ending spree of unbelievably supportive fans. I never thought that I would live a life like this but then one day I woke up and everything had changed. Last year, everything stopped and for the next three months I woke up at a treatment center every day away from my family and friends. I spent a lot of time and holidays thinking there. I thought about the sadness that I felt, the pain that I was in, and the addictions I was struggling from. When I got out, I recorded some songs about how bad things got and eventually something positive came out of it. And then I began to work on other songs too and they were about the most important lesson that I had learned during those three months, that life is what you make of it. My life began to change again and I became happier, healthier, and stronger. I may have never expected the life that I have, or even the fans…which, God, I love my fans. They’re amazing; they’re not even my fans. They’re my family and my friends. Even if I didn't expect it I love the life that I have and that’s what this record is about. It’s about making people feel positive, enjoying life, and what it’s like to be me, Demi Lovato. Most people watching this know all of what happened already, but what they don’t know is what’s about to happen next..."


i love her so much! among all the disney darlings, she's the closest in my heart. i first fell in love with her when i heard her song, "this is me" and watched her movie, "camp rock".. that was around 2008 and since then she never fails to amaze me everytime.. she's an amazing person, i know because she's really transparent.. her fans know when she's hurting and when she's happy.


when i heard what happened to her and when she stopped tweeting and communicating with her fans online, i was really hurt and saddened (ganun ako ka-affected!).. i would always tweet her how amazing and beautiful she is because i know she needed it at that time.. and when she decided to enter in a rehabilitation center and bravely faced the issues in her life, it made me so proud of her. i just didn't know why it happened to her but i know there's a reason behind it and more importantly, she left the center bolder and more inspirational to her fans.. 


and when she came back, i was so ecstatic that i would always tweet her again everyday. :) and then i can  see photos of her again in justjared so my happiness (as well as all her fans in the world) has just doubled. :) i was even more ecstatic when i saw her exchanging tweets with selena after such a long time and we, fans, exclaimed delena's reunited!! :) because we knew they didn't talk for quite a while so to see them both okay and bonding again, we were so happy beyond words.



then she started conquering red carpet events again! conquering awards shows like teen's choice, alma awards, mtv video music awards, and so much more. she also started appearing on tv shows revealing what she has gone through.. all of that while inspiring her millions of fans.



when july came, her first single, skyscraper, for her upcoming album, #unbroken was released. when i first heard it, then saw the music video, i almost cried. sobra akong affected talaga! :/ i felt her struggles and her will to stand up and face the issues of her body through the song. it made me love her more! ♥ she received so much support from her fans and heard great reviews for her inspirational song and you can really tell that she poured out her whole being into this album..

“You can take everything i have,You can break everything i am like i’m made of glass”







and few more hours to go, her new album will already be out and i am so, SO excited for this. i've never been more excited like this since taylor swift's speak now. =)





after today i know she will conquer the concert scene once more and i know this will be a huge success because among all the disney stars, she has the most distict and powerful voice. she has her own style and that makes her different. and genuine.




i'm such a proud fan. :)

updated: few hours after it's release, look at what demi tweeted! :) yaaaaay! good job, lovatics! ♥
