life is scary

ah...such memorable day...the day, the first time i stepped into the coffee-scented store named starbucks.

did you know that the name starbucks was gotten after the character in moby dick? though i dont know why.

im already satisfied stepping on its floor. i dont need to waste money buying their expensive drinks and sweets. maybe next time.

you probably know from krizia that we went to gateway. my first time too. we rode the lrt 2. another first. geez, i know nothing in life.

my mother and i commuted home using the bus. it's a wonderful feeling. no, it's not my first time. but i still love the feeling of the sun and the cool wind on my face...i actually wish we could stay like that forever...for june and college not to come, even if there are black ants crawling on our seats, thanks to the pineapple my mother bought.

but life must go on. and here i am now, typing on this computer. it's night,, many hours after the happy bus ride...and the clock will continue ticking...and next thing you know, it's time for school..

aaaagghh....

i give my sympathy to the lasallians.

sometimes you're up, sometimes you're down. and now, we're going down. charlene is going up. she's finally going to experience summer. have fun, char!

you know what the conversation in the mall and the ride home mostly about? college and the future. well, of course!! what should i expect? the signs are everywhere...and life must go on...

but im thankful...becuase there can be a lot worse situations i can be..like being in africa and your parents having aids...like you're still 10, but already working because you have drunkards for parents...like you're a baby but will soon face death because of an illness and can never experience happy moments...like...like...whatevah...you get my point..

hmm..i wonder where i got this new optimism...probably because i know im luckier than elysia right this minute...hope her head doesnt explode..but im sure she'll manage...despite being a crammer, she always survives.
