Things I learned from my 3-week Facebook hiatus
1. That
life goes on perfectly fine without it; and
2. Zuckerberg won’t make it hard for you to go back.

Reflections in the shower
I think-
Your thoughts in the shower are pretty accurate gauge of
where you are in your life at the present.
If morning bath is multitasked with planning out your day
and how to execute your duties, then probably things at work are tough. It must
be really, really tough if you don’t even get to shower at all.
If shower is consumed by thoughts of how screwed up your
last relationship was (that you forgotten if you’ve soaped already), then
probably you’re at a time you’re nursing the heart.
If it is spent reflecting on the past- the good and/or the
bad parts of the story- then probably you’re gearing for a big moment.
Sometimes, even unknowingly.
Bath time is less soapy than we think it is. So you might have
guessed it, you probably know when I thought of all these. =)

On having sisters...
Family member appreciation series ba to?
My 2 sisters and I are very different people- it's like being at the endpoints of a 3-prong spectrum (uhm, go figure) so it's amazing how we find ways to maneuver around each one's idiosyncrasies.
We've not always had it right growing up. But as time always does, it teaches us to be more tolerant and appreciative of each other. Each day we try, each day we learn. And if all else fails, we just turn a blind eye. >:)
Love ko mga ate ko! ♥ ♥ ♥ Can't wait for our Cambodia trip in 2 weeks! :)

Quick note on gratitude
My grandparents worked from ground up. My parents somehow enjoyed a comfortable childhood. They made it through law school and made sure we got good education too. But more than anything, I'm thankful for the values they taught us. They knew exactly that we'd learn from what they did, not from what they said. And they knew too, that love is something you think, say and do... and must be generous with.
Salamat naman sa loving family, Lord.

On finding love or being found by it
When we start to step out
When it all goes 'round
When all the lines are defined
though they don't intersect
When blurry things become clear
When everything blooms in spring time
When we look down and reach out
When things get cheesy
yet we still want to ride...
It may be that we find love or love finds us. :)
I love hand written notes on mush. Haha. This has been the best surprise in recent memory! Thanks, Aze! >:D<

Postcards from May of Last/Yesteryears
The 17th
It would have been the 'rents 41st wedding anniversary.
Just for kicks, we tried this babymaker/mashup thingie to "predict" what their future kid would look like. Yeah, this sounds crazy- as if 7 kids are not enough to tell what their real-life babies look like.
Anyway...
Presenting... the sibling that resembles the predicted baby the most is...
OWEN WILSON!!!!!
Why is that thing blond anyway? =))
Still and all, the kids miss you big time. And the grand kids are missing out bigger time... We love you, Popsy and Mamu. Everyday. You, of course, know that.
The 22nd
Exactly a year ago, I earned the distinct honor of being called a marathoner.
I would eternally be grateful for what running does in my life. 'nough said. :)
It also doesn't hurt running is a family event as Kuya Randy was a co-alumnus of that race.
So was Raj! But I think the bigger celebration for him that day was he got himself a sweet young woman for a girlfriend. Yiheeeeee!!!!
Happy anniversary, lovebees! I love you both! :)
The 29th
It's been 5 years since Popsy's been away. =|
In remembrance, the family gathered in Loyola today, had special lunch and got our pasalubong from KJ and family's recent NY trip. :) I love my family. Everything about us. The differences, most especially. It's from the 2 great losses and keeping together what's left that I learned the best way to live life is by meaning it...
***
Since this post is everything about May...
I'd like to include in this entry 2 events of May 2011 that made me one extreeeeeeeeeeemely happy girl.
They are:
The recent trip to Baler, Aurora...
and having won the West. Welcome to the finals, baby!
