18 Beautiful quotes in my inbox =)HAPPY READING. =)

"You can erase someone from your mind Getting them out of your heart is another story." -- Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

If your heart gets broken it's not a sin to cry, it's not a crime to mourn, but it's not right to ruin your own life because in love, you should know when to move on, if there's nothing to hold on for.

"Sometimes when you sacrifice something precious, you are not really losing it. You are just passing it on to someone else." -- The Five People You Meet in Heaven

If you don't go after with what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you are always in the same place.

It's hard to really let go of someone who has been a part of who you are. It's hard to accept that when we set them free, we also lose the power to know what is behind their smile, their laughter and their words. We free them from us, only to find out that we haven't freed ourselves from them.

"Ever wonder why people can't fall sanely in love, instead of falling madly in love? But then again, what would be the point?" -- Jessica Zafra

Love is not precisely a feeling. Feelings easily pass and change or fade away. But true love is an act of wanting to continue inspite and despite of everything.

Setting someone free is the hardest thing to do. It's not the tears you cried that makes it so hard, but the small piece of hope left inside your eart that someday, you would still end uo together.

Don't rely on destiny. Rather, we should think of reality. If we really want something, fight for it. Because destiny is just an excuse of letting things happen instead of making things happen.

It's not certain whether the one you have now is the one you'll be with for the rest of your life. There's even no guarantee if the one you just met is the one who will love you forever. Because there's no such thing as the ideal man or woman, no such thing as the right person or the right one. It's us who make love to last a lifetime. So if ever somebody asks you is she or he the right one, you can answer, "I'm not sure, but I intend to make him or her my only one.

To love somebody is so risky and indeed very tiring. Sometimes it seems you've already done everything to the person, but then your existence remains unseen.

Words to live by: If people talk negatively about you, live in such a a way that no one would believe them.

You can truly fall in love with one person. And the others? Well, they just make your heart beat. You'll get to meet a lot of people, but there's only one to whom you'll fully give your heart. Sure, you'll get attracted to many. But what you will have are just feelings. Whether you play around or not, there will only be one perseon for you in the end. It can be hard finding that person and even harder to fill that emotion, but I've been told that it could happen.

In relationships, it is impossible to find someone whol will never hurt you. So go for the one who makes all the pain worth it.

It is one of greatest ironies of human existence that the more you love someone, the more you make yourself vulnerable in the pain of losing them. And the more people you love, the more you increase your chances of getting hurt. Yes, love makes you strong, but at the same time it leaves you defenseless.

When you love someone, you feel like that person becomes a part of you. Like an arm perhaps. So much so that in time, you get so used to their presence that you neglect them thinking they'd never leave. But that's the difference between a limb and someone you love. Neglect as you may with your arm, still, it stays by your side. Do the same to your loved one, and they may never come back. I guess that's why they say say that when someone you love leaves you, it feels like a vital part of you has been torn right off.

We can never be happy with something wrong. But if somewhere along the way, what was wrong has made us happy, then I must have been right all along.

Losing a person you love is hard because you may have given your best thinking it would be your last. Cry if you have to but find sometime to recover. Move on and allow yourself to love again. But in finding love again, remember to always give what's best of you, and not what's left of you.

A La Luz Experience..
27.03.06
La Luz Beach Resort
San Juan, Batangas

I really enjoyed our Batangas Trip. =D The pictures from the internet were very deceiving. But then, it's not WHERE YOU ARE right? It's WHO YOU ARE WITH. =D Of all the things that we did, I enjoyed the game, Train, the most. =D I felt like I was in GradeSchool. Super FUN! Thanks Aeron for the very wonderful idea! It's really super memorable. Who can ever forget the jellyfish sa balsa..? Which attacked Topher and Justin.. (yes, i prefer the word attacked than stung.. kase grabe yung damage eh..haha..db guys?) We also played volleyball.. Oh well.. What's new? Pampagulo lang ako dun! Haha! ;) But then I was able to score naman di ba? About 2 points. Haha! What else? Oh.. the "1,2,3 Pass" and Truth or Dare!! Crucial.. Haha.. R18 yung kina Jus, Jaymee and Ria. Haha! I also enjoyed our picture takings.. =D Especially on that huge rock! It was totally alluring! ;) And.. Oh so kilig! Haha! Kidding! Basta.. Super FUN! =D On our way home, we had a stop over somewhere in Laguna, super NOSEBLEED talaga si Jus!! As in! D ba Aeron? Haha! TOURISTER.. yeah! FUN FUN FUN! So that would be all for now..

The seventh commandment, "Thou shall not steal," has been totally violated by someone along Dapitan St. at exactly 11 in the morning. He was riding a motorcycle when he stole the cell phone of an unknown citizen. I was there, saw the whole scenario, and it really pains me when all I was able to do was STARE. Just stare. I pity the young lady because she really looked helpless, screaming on top of her voice, yet amidst the large number of people around her, no one had the guts to defend her or even tried to follow the thief and do something about it. I just can't think of a valid reason why people steal. Is it because of poverty? Well, even if that's the reason why some people do it, it is STILL not a VALID reason to do such thing. Stealing should NEVER be an option. Haay. There are still a lot more alternatives to overcme poverty. Oh well.



Moving on, we went to Glorietta and GB3 a while ago to help my sister look for a graduation dress. I was able to find the close-to-perfect-dress for her at Rustan's. But then, she didn't like it so much. Aaaw. Too bad. It was a really sexy attire pa naman. Hehe. Hmm.. There were a lot of pretty miniskirts at Zara. While I was there, I was like, "I like this one, I also like that one, and also that one!" Haha.. Super dami! What else? Last night nga pala, we went to Galleria to accompany my sister. I saw a new pair of Havaianas which was really striking! But then, I had to control myself from buying another pair again. Oh well. Next time.. after Batangas. Haha. ;) Watched two movies straight. Just Like Heaven and Ella Enchanted. I just love JUST LIKE HEAVEN. Very beautiful! ;)



Anyway, tomorrow will be the BIG EVENT. Haha. I just hope that we will all be happy, and we will all be able to spend the whole day just knowing each other more, and hopefully.. no secrets will be revealed. Haha. di ba, Aeron? Hmm.. Crucial. So there. Gotta go.. Have to watch Bianca and Zanjoe pa.. haha! I'm a big fan of their loveteam.. Really! Haha.. 'til then. ;)



I MISS YOU BABY..
..
Just let it die
With no goodbyes
Details don't matter
We both paid the price
Tears in my eyes
You know sometimes
It'd be like that baby
Now everytime I see you
I pretend I'm fine
When I wanna reach out to you
But I turn and I walk and I let it ride
Baby I must confess
We were bigger than anything
Remember us at our best
So I hope this will remind you
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us
..

just a thought:
..if God can forgive.. why can't he?..

"Someday, someone will walk into your life and make you realize why it never wrked out with anyone else."


"The saddest thing that can happen between friends is when one falls in love while the other wants nothing more than friendship. Love can sometimes be MAGIC.. But magic can sometimes be an ILLUSION."
