I could finally know why barney ended up marrying robin when he actually proposed-in-a-not-really-sweet-manner to his stripper girlfriend! And ahhh-nother season of hashtag crazy, hashtag awesome, hashtag legen .. wait for it.. dary and hashtag more-reasons-to-stay-at-home.

Another reason to get excited to this month is, my Dad's Birthday! :))) 

Plus, holiday is just around the corner, Now that it's officially a BER-month, I could hear Christmas songs playing every morning around the house, well, I already got used to it since I was a kid my dad is always the first one in our subdivision to blast our house with Christmas songs this time of the year, so yeah, don't be surprised if I know every lyrics to every Christmas song.

And... Andd.. Anddddddd...

I'm now going to allow myself to join Halloween costume parties. Yes, you heard that right. Me, in a costume, in a party. Well, I don't know what to expect yet, but if I found it fun, you might see me in a costume yearly! hahaha. 

Sonnet XVII Love

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,

or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.

I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,

in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that never blooms

but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;

thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,

risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.

I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;

so I love you because I know no other way

than this: where I does not exist, nor you,

so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,

so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep. 

-Pablo Neruda

Indulging myself to a great nostalgia. Ringing back my high school memoirs. Allowing my mind to time travel and be swept off my feet once again.

                                      

There is probably no way I could describe her. I honestly loved her ever since the day that I accidentally stumbled upon her song Video Games. I'm really not an avid fan of her that I know every song and every lyrics to her album. No. To be honest, Video Games is the only song that I liked after I listened to her whole album. Main reason why I loved her, is HER! I love the way she dresses, how she portray herself in every music videos of her and I actually loved all the MV's she did except for the songs, not really.

I think it's because we have the same passion/love over vintage stuffs. Uhuh. Vintage. Just watching her in every music vids that she had, I could actually feel being reeled back through time and see myself wearing those 60's,70's,80's dresses and had my hair have that big puff and big curls. 

Just me down the notch

Extreme Couponing

Just a few weeks ago, my grandpa and I started to watch this reality show called Extreme Couponing on TLC and we got really interested in it that we already made it a habit watching it at 4pm. Im in awe to see that they could have 95% removed on their total bill. They can even get to make it a 100% off! Holy camole! Who doesn't want that! A 2month's stock of groceries for FREE?!

Really amazing! I wonder what if Philippines also had that kind of coupons? AHH! Long lines in the cashier checkout, the couponers in the show took an hour just to finish the whole process plus 4-5 hours if something goes wrong with the coupons. Today that coupons are not available here, we are already standing an hour just to wait for our turn in the cashier, what more if we had that coupons? Oh my god! the horror! I cant imagine standing that long, waiting. But it will be worth the wait if I could have my groceries for FREE.

Plus, knowing all Pinoys (I for one) are savvy and will do anything to have a double income so prolly when that coupon starts to have it's way here, I bet my life for sure, There'll be a hell lot of sari-sari store next to each other! But anyhow, it's still pretty cool to have those adjustments in your bill. From a thousand bucks down to thirty bucks?! Not bad. Really not bad at all.

So, here's one episode of the show, so I could share my awe with you. And you're seriously gonna wish to have that motivation collecting those coupons.

j'adore

Whoah! Look who spent 15 hours just by giving this blog a design it deserves. Guilty! :)

I know, I know. This blog is really going nowhere but let me try giving it another shot on blogging and give this page a little more to scroll about. I just prayed that someone above would take away my laziness on actually portraying my thoughts into words and make this page a lil bit livelier.

To start off again cause I already manage to post two entries (which I'm not very proud of) last year before I started to make this blog, and decided to just delete it and just start with a clean slate. Just to give a heads-up (for someone out there tryna read my shits here if there is one) I'll be most likely talk anything under the sun that is provoking my thoughts to go typing.

Hence, let me start you with some things on my bucket list before summer starts again next year; I know classes just started a few months ago and summer is like, still 8 months to go but some items on this list had a really serious price so I must start saving up now to have at least see my long list scraped off one by one.

Here are a few things on my lists;

Surfboard; Long board to be precise,  one that is 9' - 10' which costs around Php 15-20,000

Over the last summer, I had a friend who is really into surfing and skim boarding and then he started teaching  me both and oh boy, I got hooked instantly, its like love at first try. So it leads mo to a motivation of having my own surfing board!

Another long board but with wheels

Aha, yes, Im really into boards at this very moment, Of course, That one friend also lets me borrow his skate board (the long board type shown in the picture) and again, what can you say, I liked it! That some kind of adrenaline pushing through your system that gives you the thrill and excitement and gives you bruises but definitely worth it. Man it makes me want to buy this one now.

So that's the first two of my long list. I hope I have all the courage to save up for this, thinking of all the temptations around me; clothes, shoes, food. Plus knowing myself that I get a little weak seeing/leaving the top on that rack.
