2nd Entry After 3 years
It has been 3 months since I've met you. And it that 3 months, my feelings for you evolved from simple attraction to being so in love.
It was complicated at first, I was not so sure of what exactly I am to you. I fell in love with you that fast even though we were both committed.
But things has its way of working things out. Soon we found ourselves leaving our partners (now exes). Then we became together, it was too soon, yet we became official.
It is just our first month, yet you already introduced me to your family, and they are okay with it.
I know I should feel secure with you, though it is just our first month. You always gave me re-assurance that you love me, yet I still feel insecure of things.
I know I should trust you, and let go of these insecurities. And I promise you I will.
I promise that thing will work out alright.

Kahit Kaunting Pag asa
Is this love?
Love nga ang nararamdaman ko para sayo, o crush? Bakit ba ganito, ang komplikado. Committed ka, committed ako, kaya hindi pwede. Kung sana lang wala akong karelasyon eh, handa akong maging kabit.
May tiyansa kaya ako sa iyo, kahit konti lang. Handa akong tanggapin kahit tira tira lang. Hindi naman ako manghihingi ng buo, dahil alam ko hindi pwede.
Kagabi, yoon ang unang beses na naglambing ako sa isang lalaking hindi ko karelasyon. Ang gabing kapareho ng nararamdaman ko... madilim, walang patutunguhan, nasa kawalan. Ngayon umaga na, maliwanag. Kasing linaw ng katotohanang wala akong tiyansa sayo.
Kahit alam kong walang pag asa, patuloy parin kitang mamahalin. Patuloy na aasa na sana kahit konti lang.
Mali ba itong nararamdaman ko? O nasa maling pagkakataon tayo nagkakilala.

Miss Universe 2016
The last time it was held in the Philippines, Sushmita Sen from India was crowned as the winner by the outgoing Miss Universe Dayanara Torres from Puerto Rico. Both of them somehow became a celebrity here, and both of them sat as part of the judging panel.
One of the shocking news is the non inclusion of Venezuela (Miriam Habach) to the semi finalist. Everybody seems to be so sure that she would make it to Top13, she's beautiful and she perform perfectly. But we just don't know what happened.
Kenya's first time in to the semi finals also came as a surprise even to her (Mary Esther Were). But it seems like she's determined to be on top. I was even more nervous during Q&A round, it was definitely a tough question to her. She might not made it to Top3, but it was definitely a good fight.
Thailand's Chalita Suansane inclusion on each round came as a no surprise. She's topping the fan vote each and every round. That is why it is also shocking that she didn't make it to Top3.
It is also a tough competition for Philippine's Maxine Medina. Not only that the outgoing Miss Universe is Pia Wurtzbach (Philippines), but she's also a host delegate. Coincidentally, when MU was held in the Philippines in 1994, Philippines representative Charlene Gonzalez only made it to Top6.
Myanmar might not make it to the semi finals, but it she won the National Costume award.
Here are the candidates who made it to Top13 (with their country's last placement).
- Brazil (MU2015 Top15)
- Indonesia (MU2015 Top15)
- Panama (MU2011 Top10)
- Peru (MU2012 Top16)
Candidates who made it to Top9 are all from North America.
- Canada (MU2006 Top10)
- Mexico (MU2015 Top15)
- USA (MU2015 2nd)
Top6 are
- Kenya
- Philippines (MU2015 Winner)
- Thailand (MU2015 Top10)
And here is the Top3.
2nd RunnerUp - Colombia (MU2015 1stRU)
1st RunnerUp - Haiti (MU1975 1stRU)
Winner - France (MU2015 Top5)
I would have though that Haiti would get it since she really gave a heartfelt answer (confidently beautiful with a heart) making it their first Miss Universe crown... but it ended as their second MU 1st RunnerUp. And coincidentally... France's 2nd Miss Universe crown (since 1952).

Lessons from a Pencil Maker
A pencil maker told the pencil four important lessons.
1.) Eveything you do will leave a mark.
2.) You can always correct the mistake you make.
3.) What is important is what is inside you.
4.) In life, you will undergo painful sharpening which will make you a better pencil.

Miss Universe 2015
I got a mix feeling for this... although of course I feel so happy that Pia Wurtzbach got the 3rd Miss Universe crown for the the Philippines, I somehow feel sorry for Miss Colombia. Philippines was primarily announced as the 1st Runner up and Colombia the winner, unfortunately it was a mistake made by the host Steve Harvey. He might have misread what was in the result paper. In any case, I am still ecstatic over the announcement of Pia as the winner.
They brought back the old format of Top 3 final Q&A with just a simple question.
MU 2015 - Philippines
1st RU - Colombia
2nd RU - USA
And I would rather say that I love these years top5 Q&A as it is more politically and socially inclined than the usual pageantry questions. France and Australia were part of Top5.
Brazil, Indonesia, Belgium, South Africa, and Mexico made it to Top15. While Japan, Thailand, Curacao, Venezuela, and Dominican Republic reach top 10.

Struggles of our Life
Once upon a time a daughter complained to her father that her life was miserable and that she didn’t know how she was going to make it. She was tired of fighting and struggling all the time. It seemed just as one problem was solved, another one soon followed. Her father, a chef, took her to the kitchen. He filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire.
Once the three pots began to boil, he placed potatoes in one pot, eggs in the second pot and ground coffee beans in the third pot. He then let them sit and boil, without saying a word to his daughter. The daughter, moaned and impatiently waited, wondering what he was doing. After twenty minutes he turned off the burners. He took the potatoes out of the pot and placed them in a bowl. He pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl. He then ladled the coffee out and placed it in a cup.
Turning to her, he asked. “Daughter, what do you see?” “Potatoes, eggs and coffee,” she hastily replied.
"Look closer”, he said, “and touch the potatoes.” She did and noted that they were soft.
He then asked her to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg.
Finally, he asked her to sip the coffee. Its rich aroma brought a smile to her face.
"Father, what does this mean?” she asked.
He then explained that the potatoes, the eggs and coffee beans had each faced the same adversity-the boiling water. However, each one reacted differently. The potato went in strong, hard and unrelenting, but in boiling water, it became soft and weak. The egg was fragile, with the thin outer shell protecting its liquid interior until it was put in the boiling water. Then the inside of the egg became hard. However, the ground coffee beans were unique. After they were exposed to the boiling water, they changed the water and created something new.
"Which one are you?” he asked his daughter. “When adversity knocks on your door, how do you respond? Are you a potato, an egg, or a coffee bean?”
Moral Lesson: In life, things happen around us, things happen to us, but the only thing that truly matters is how you choose to react to it and what you make out of it. Life is all about leaning, adopting and converting all the struggles that we experience into something positive.

Math and Love Story
Math tells us 3 of the saddest love stories.
1.) Tangent Lines - who had 1 chance to meet, and then parted ways forever.
2.) Parallel Lines - who where never meant to meet.
3.) Asymptotes - who can get closer and closer but will never be together.

Everyone has a...
Everyone has a past no one's heard about.
Everyone has a secret they haven't shared.
Everyone has a talent that most people don't notice.
Everyone has a weakness hidden inside.
Everyone has a story left untold.
So never start judging someone thinking you know them back to front.
Because the truth is, you probably don't.
If you think you know people, think again.

A Day Or Two At The Beach
This year we decided to visit another beach resort in Bataan, Phi Phi Beach Resort in Morong. I can't say I didn't enjoy it, nor the opposite. I guess I could have enjoyed it much better if only I'm not thinking of negative things going on with me. I hadn't seen beach waves as big and as inviting as I see it now. Yes! it is really inviting that once you get into the water you'll get carried by the waves. Also there' only few groups checked in here since summer had already pass. Too bad my tab doesn't have the capability to upload pictures using my gallery.
Anyway, I think I'll swim again at the beach and the pool a little later on before we check out, and enjoy it as much as I should for once we go back to Manila... I suppose I'll be more stresswd than I ever.
