From Rabbi Brian:
I want you to think about how you at half your current age reacts to finding out how your future unfolds.
What five things about you NOW would be most surprising to you THEN?
It’s been a long while since I’ve blogged. Some things happened that shook me up. My expectations were blown to pieces, I got knocked out and didn’t even know what hit me, and, now, I’ve woken up a slightly different person than I used to be. I can’t go back to the way things once were. It seems I’m not going to post about manga that much anymore. The only story I follow these days is “Kuroshitsuji”. I’ve quit the photography club I’ve been part of for two years. I’ve quit my addiction to a certain person and started a new one with cigarettes. I changed the color of my hair only a few hours ago. But some things have remained the same. I’m still in love with photography and I intend to learn more despite not having access to the perks of being part of an organization. I’m still writing – I always have – and I’m keeping a new journal. I’m still a music person. I haven’t changed for the worse, I guess, because I still have my true, loyal, and gentle friends. Oh well, the only question left is, “What’s next?”
These are my top 3 things that are worth waiting in long lines for:
1. Food
Whether it’s at a favorite fast food chain or a turo-turo, at the supermarket or the wet market, everyone’s gotta eat!
2. The Comfort Room
Piss and Shit. Those are pretty basic. And make-up touch-ups and replacing my sanitary napkin. It’s a girl thing!
3. Tuition at a good school.
‘Nuff said!
P.S.
4. My latest blog post! Ahahahaha!
I’m taking a break from blogging for now. I’m experiencing some changes in my life and in my mental outlook now so I thought of changing the format of my blog too. I’ll keep you posted.
“All good things come to an end.” It’s a repetitive experience. People whom you thought you were so close to slowly, but surely, drift away. And the next thing you know they no longer respond to your text messages, they are no longer your friends on facebook, and you just don’t care about each other anymore. This kind of thing happens every minute, every hour, of every day around the world. It happens as often as people make new friends. Rarely do you find a close friend or partner that stays forever. (cue music “Where are you nooowww???”) Years down the road, once close friends meet again in a reunion or even down the street at the grocery store. Is it a re-beginning or have the two of you completely moved on?
I commute every day to school now. One morning, on the way from Bukidnon to Cagayan de Oro, I saw a chicken marching like a soldier on the highway. And because of this amusing sight, I had a Eureka! moment – the answer to the age old question, “Why did the chicken cross the road?”
Because it wanted to get killed, that’s why!
Good thing it changed it’s mind and hurried right back to the side of the road. In a sudden moment, it must have realized the foolishness of its actions, and what his death meant to his little hen-wife and chicks who would be left behind.
So the chicken gets to live another day.
