weekend exploration

Last Saturday, hubby and I went to Divisoria. It's a place where you could find the cheapest bargains and you could haggle with the prices. The place is always crowded yet I still love going there. We've bought some goods, toys and shirts. We then decided to take our merienda in one of the chinese fastfood in Binondo. We ate at Chuan Kee. Its the first time I've tasted kiampong (a sticky chinese fried rice).

And of course, I've bought some hopia at Eng Bee Tin in Binondo. I love their hopia! I bought the Hopia Ube and the Hopia Ube/Pastillas combi. It's a very delightful treat. I have only bought 2 packs, whereas other peole are buying dozens and dozens of their hopia. Well, I would defintely go back and buy some more.

rainy monday

rainy days and mondays always gets me down

I don't like Mondays as I have to take the jeepney. I don't like rainy days when I need to go out. And today, it's Monday and it's raining. So I was 2 minutes late for work! I should have taken the day off instead of rushing and getting wet.

those past love stories

Everybody has a first love, they have left in yesterday.
Feelings they have left behind,

it's just a place in time but not so far away.

Reading and hearing stories on past relationships and love lost gives me a totally different feeling I could not describe. How I wish there is such a thing as past-love-amnesia. Maybe the song "First Love Never Dies" of Seals & Crofts works for me. Maybe there are just certain incidences in the stories that is similar to mine.

I wish you love, I wish you happiness.
And may the years be kind to you.
You'll always be a part of me, share this thought with me.
I'll carry you always.

Memories makes me remember, memories that I wish would left me. It was 5 years ago, yet I could still recall every detail of it. My life is different now, afar from who I was before.

First love in my life. Where are you tonight?
I wonder about you.
First love in my life. Did things turned out alright?
I worry about you.
'Cause I've got everything, everything in life that I wanted.
It would kill me now and make me sad to know you are lonely.
First love never dies.

Maybe I'm just a fan of stories of love. Stories wherein they would realize that there is still love, yet it was too late. Stories wherein one would get married, yet he still loves the other girl. Stories which end with the guy saying to her past girlfriend the words "I married her, teaching myself, keeping in mind, that I married you" or the words "how I wish it had been you..."

Perhaps I could write my own story.
I should have written it years ago.
And I am being sappy.

They say that your first love never dies
You can put out the flame, but not the fire

just the same

Often times I would find myself in the same place and in the same instances I had been. Thinking the same thoughts, questioning the same questions, dreaming the same dream.
Where am leading?
I have been walking on this same path for too long
I had been feeling the same feelings I had felt before, facing the same fears and regrets...
I had been staring at the same sky, wishing on the same star...
Hoping I would be in a different place, in a different situation...

earthquake

I just read from the news that a 5.2 magnitude quake hits the country. We we're in Makati and the tremor registered at intensity 3. Good thing there were no reported damages. I did not felt the earthquake and its aftershock as I was so tired last night and we we're already sleeping that time.

With this I pray. Praying that our family and our love ones will always be safe whenever any calamity strikes. Praying that we would be together and that we would be free from harm. I believe that God is with us at all times.

his yesterday's memories

I remember yesterday was her day. She was a person in the past.
I wonder if he also remembered it, or had everything gone into oblivion.
Maybe yes, maybe somehow, as the child is with him.
The childs eyes, the boy's being makes him remember the woman.
How could he not recall.
I wonder where is she now. She carried with her their daughter.

I don't want to recall the pain it had caused me.
That until now I am still fighting this feeling of despise.
I am not in pain.
Though, I don't want to felt the scar it caused me, how I've been blinded, how it affected me and the feeling of regrets.
I ought not to ask if he remember his past. I must forget.

great words

Here I am. Working where there are very little or seldom exchanges of the words "good morning!" . Hearing those words today from a stranger made this day a good one. I am not of high rank but I appreciate those people who greet me with such words. Sometimes I also received the words "hello ma'm" on my way home from total strangers. These are simple words that really make a big difference. With this, I always respond back giving those people my sincere smile. In my heart I could hear the words, "may you be blessed".

click and earn

I decided to take a step into the world of making a revenue online. I decided to add Google Adsense ads into my site. Have signed up for Adsense-Exchange which would give clicks to my Adsense ads. Well, I am still in the process of learning how it works. Hoping that my quest for revenue will push through. I have also started signing up at traffic generating sites like Traffic Echoes and Link Referral.

This is fun. It's something I love to do. I just hope I would generate some revenue.
Maybe I will create another blog for this soon.

I know a lot of people are successful in making money online. How I wish they would give me some tips.

Well, I better start learning more...
