The B-Side of My Mind

I saw this on Pinterest and it striked me -- I miss travelling!!! I miss traveling! It has been awhile since i went on a real holiday some place far away. I have been busy with training for marathons this year and that is why i am unable to do so :( Even my trip to Boracay was cancelled due to training. boo hoo! Oh well, I just hope next year will be a really good year for me -- 2013!! These are just some of the things that I am hoping to achieve for next year. In short, my resolutions hehehe 1. Run a full marathon 2. Run a 50km Ultra Marathon 3. Climb Mount K 4. Visit Boracay!!! 5. Cliff dive 6. Backpacking across Asia 7. Pursue my Phd (Yikes!) 8. 9. 10. Get married (?!!) -- Haha.. who knows right? As you can see above i put get married in the list at number 10 because it isn't really a big priority on my list. I am in a relationship with a wonderful guy but emotionally and mentally, I am not there yet although i have been pressured just beca...

  I saw this on pinterest and this really made me thinking and I feel thankful for every little things in life that i used to complain about.

Last night, while me and my sister were having conversations about the fundraising dinner i attended on sunday night my mom came and joined us. All the talk then led to something she remembered and she told me about some things that were kind of disturbing for me, because it was of me. She heard some people talk trash about me. I just don't understand the fascination "people" have on me until they have to say things like that. What hurts me the most was when my mom said this to me: "As your mother, when they say things like that about you i am in a way affected. I feel sad, i am also hurt" I just felt like crying right there! The last thing i want to do is to make my parents sad. All my life, i have tried to live my life as good as possible. I know i am not perfect, i make mistakes but who doesn't right? Mom was with me for an hour or so. All we did was talk. I really believe that everything happens for a reason. During the Share Him program that we had 2...

Coming this monday, the manic will start all over again coz im going back to work *sigh* that one week of leave was just heavenly. Here's my resolutions for this year: 1. Taking chances on love - not that i didnt last year but the choices of guys that i dated wasnt actually "boyfriend material" type of guys..
