JUST ONE MOMENT YOU KNOW YOU'RE NOT A SAD STORY

3 more hours and 2013 will be over. I can't believe it. This year will be another blur for all of us but let us not forget the things that happened to us, good and bad. There were good ones, too good you want to stay in that moment forever, and there were bad. Too bad, you can't even stand the feeling you get when it crosses your mind. But without the bad, you won't learn. So I'm very thankful for this year. It has been a traumatizing one, I tell you. There's the pressure created by school, people leaving, typhoons paying our country a visit etc., etc. So let this year be a lesson to us all. And let this year remind us that *:・゚ *:・゚after a hurricane, there comes a rainbow *:・゚ *:・゚This is too cliché, but it's true. You can always make up for every mistake you've done, for every bad decision you made, for every word you've said. That's the essence of new years. It's a new beginning, and it's another chance for you to refresh things. Okay this sounds too sappy.

So to make this short and straight to the point, this post for everyone I know. For everyone who did good and bad to me; this is for you. This post is for the things I've done. This is for the days I found light in the darkest of times. 

2014 is going to be one hell of a ride, for reasons too complicated I cannot find the right words. I'll be seventeen in six months, can you believe it? 

So yeah.


THANK YOU.

Reactions

A lot of things happened in a span of 4 weeks and all I could say is: I'M TIRED; but it's all  worth it. There have been a lot of plot twists I'd have to deal with (read: my grade in Physics) and it's kind of traumatizing. Being a senior is not a joke; you always feel like you are running out of time and every time you hear a ticking sound, it's like there's this cosmic clock following you everywhere and all of a sudden just stand there and zone out for the next 3 minutes and think about what you're doing. But zoning out is not a very ideal thing to do when you're chasing deadlines and cutting every sleeping hour you got. So to sum up this thought I'm trying to lay down in words, I've been dodging off these ~plot twists~ just so I could do all the things I'm required to do. In short, just move on and get on with it. But of course 97% of you don't even know what I'm talking about so let's just talk about other "things":

  • IT IS FINALLY OUT. I literally jumped around the house for two minutes the moment I saw this. Because a year and six months ago, I was just poring all over this book in a couch and not it's a movie AND I JUST. I can't wait for this movie and its poisonous plot. The book is very important to me and by "very", I mean very. It stayed with me, with my whole being. I read this on my fifteenth birthday, which is very special because I received the gift of understanding the implications of loving someone. So I'm expecting a tear-jerker right here. I'm really hoping the movie would live up the standards of the book. But I think I don't need to worry because I have a strong feeling this movie will be great.

"ONE SICK OVE STORY" Was that a pun HAHAHAHA

  • One of the worse things that happened to me is not being able to catch up with the books I'm reading. I have a lot of unfinished novels and that makes me sad because I can't just leave my schoolwork hanging everywhere. I'm done with that phase (naks). Remember that post I made about being productive during sembreak? Well that plan didn't really work out because all I ever did was sleep and do unproductive things like... sleep. But since 2013 is almost done... well, what's a good 6 hours of non-stopreading, right? Hehe. 
Finally got a hold of this baby! But like what I said, I stopped reading for a while because I have a thesis to finish, a subject to ~avenge~ and performance tasks to gurgle over. I'm no in the middle of the novel (thanks for Christmas vacations) and this novel actually influenced me to order Gingerbread Latte at Starbucks because 1) Gingerbread Lattes are great 2) It's a featured Starbucks beverage for Christmas which can help you earn stickers, by the way on the left side (probably the hardest set of stickers to earn because you never know if the featured beverage is good or bad or whatevs) and; 3) Please refer to numbers 1 and 2. 

And that's how you relate books to lattes and stickers. Kidding.

Also, my never-ending desire to own a physical copy of Palahniuk's work might come to an end because IT'S CHRISTMAS. Christmas means free money and I think I could snatch a few bucks from my allowance to buy a copy or two? Because if I did, then I would probably give myself a pat in the back for purchasing something so precious. Also Eugenides' The Virgin Suicides! I've read it, yes, but owning a physical copy keeps on plugging at my heart because that book is so sad that I want to keep it forever somewhere in a corner; in case I forget to feel something. A sad book is a good start for remembering...


I know what you're thinking. That scary clown who walks around a small town somewhere in England. This is the first time I'm going to read Stephen King's work. This 1987 novel shows the real meaning of memory and childhood trauma. I love horror. But people say the ending will you cry like a baby. I love how mysterious this novel is. And yup, I am planning to finish this a-thousand-and-ninety wonder. 

  • I SAW UP DHARMA DOWN LIVE!!!! In my school!!!! This time it's pretty special because I was with my friends and you know, good friends + good music = perfect match. And I can't help but feel giddy because they sang all my favorite songs!!! God bless this band, really. The crowd was great, they kept on singing the lyrics. I missed concerts and small shows like this. Makes me feel less sad. Even though UDD's songs scream sadness and unrequited love. I still can't stop thinking about their set. I want to see them again.
  • You should see the movie Stuck In Love. I've known this movie for almost a year now, but it took me quite a while to see it. It's a very touching movie about uhh, love, and how scary it is. I loved Nat Wolff. He is now in my To Do List. HEH. But seriously, his acting is great and speaking of Nat Wolff, I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HIM PLAY ISAAC IN THE TFIOS MOVIE!!! But okay, back to the movie. Uhh, this movie made me cry JUST BECAUSE. I don't know, the emotions were so strong and I thought this movie was one of those without predictable stories (it kind of is) but I really loved it. Please see it now. 
  • I made nine mixtapes for my good friends. It's been two years since the mixtape drama with this guy and I guess this time I'm kind of happy with what I did??? I guess this is how I see vengeance and anger: NO MIXTAPE FOR HIM. 
So that's it for now, I guess? Sorry for being so lame. This has been a very great year. Traumatic, yeah, but very memorable. And I just realized that I wan't talking about current events that are happening around us. These are things that are happening to me. 

Finally have something worth telling a story about, LOL.
