I always have these rules of spending my Mondays to Fridays doing school and business stuffs, then my Saturdays hanging out with friends and lastly my Sundays with my family. But yesterday, I broke my own rule and went out with my clingy friends. We’re just supposed to hang @ Starbucks to have some coffee and frappe and to get myself one Macchiato but we were surprised to see ourselves having the unusual road trip that led us to Eastwood City.
We had our early dinner @ Icebergs
And yes, Icebergs is known for their signature ice cream and parfaits.
Icebergs Branches here in the Philippines

Their soft and comfy couch.
I forgot, we took our dinner on the 2nd floor so I don’t have any picture of the ground floor. We need privacy. HAHAHA!
Here’s the yummy foods of Icebergs!

Before I end this blog post, I’ve realized I never really break the rules stated above. Everything went out smoothly and I was able to follow the rule of spending my Sunday with my family. Yes, I spent my Sunday with my family.
Thanks to Gadi, Cie, Ruzzie and Jamie ❤
Ladies and gents, meet some members of my family, my Moyso and my Crinkers family. It’s been 7 years and yet we’re still together. (BF lang ang peg) HAHAHA! I really like the fact that everytime we eat, we share our food and sometimes we drink using one straw without any thought of ” Nakakadiri naman ‘to”. We do it like we’re a family. Yay to my Sundate!
In every little thing that you do, God has something bigger for you. If you feel like giving up, God is always there to lift you up. Before you plan the things that you want for your life, God has his own plans which are fixed and way better than what you have planned. You just can’t say no. The answer is always YES. YES to His will. Yes to Him alone. TGIF!
‘cause if your love was all I had In this life Well that would be enough Until the end of time So rest your weary heart And relax your mind Cause I’m gonna love you boy Until the end of time
This one’s for the lovers If you’re out there let me hear you say
Be thankful! There are still people who love and support you even at your most down situation. You are not alone. You will never be alone because your friends, your family,your one true God, they all got your back. Just ride your own seesaw. It will all be worthwhile to go up. But it will still be the sweetest to know that when you go down, there are people who are more than willing to lift you up for you to continue your ride. In the same way, be willing enough to lift up someone who needs you. Learn how to sacrifice just to let someone to go up and enjoy his or her ride as well. Because a teeter-totter will never be useful if it’s in total equilibrium. It has to move up and down for people to enjoy the real seesaw of life.
Without a doubt, Mr. Shakespeare! We expect from those people we love and trust most especially when we know to ourselves that we can do things more than we expect. Admit it or not, it’s so natural for humans to expect. Every day is expectation day. May it be sufficed or not, still we continue to expect. And with that, be ready, just be ready for the heartaches. TGIF! 🙂
Never put your faith on people. Always put your faith in God because people will easily turn their backs on you. The people who used to defend you, who used to praise you, who used to be with you will also be the same people who will bash you, who will judge you, who will take you for granted and who will hate you.
And there are days when I’m losing my faith
Because the man wasn’t good he was great
He’d say “Music was the home for your pain”
And explained I was young, he would say
Take that rage, put it on a page
Take that page to the stage
Blow the roof off the place
I’m trying to make you proud
Do everything you did
I hope you’re up there with God saying “That’s my kid!”
[Chorus]
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh if you could see me now
(Oh if you could see me now)
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow
Oh if you could see me now
(Oh if you could see me now)
(Oh if you could see me now)
If you could see me now would you recognize me?
Would you pat me on the back or would you criticize me?
Would you follow every line on my tear-stained face
Put your hand on my heart that was cold
As the day you were taken away
I know it’s been a while but I can see you clear as day
Right now, I wish I could hear you say
I drink too much, and I smoke too much dutch
But if you can’t see me now that shit’s a must
You used to say I won’t know a wind until it crossed me
Like I won’t know real love ’til I’ve loved and I’ve lost it
So if you lost a sister, someone’s lost a mom
And if you lost a dad then someone’s lost a son
And they’re all missing out, yeah they’re all missing out
So if you get a second to look down on me now
Mom, Dad I’m just missing you now
This song is such a beautiful and touching one. It caught my attention when a local celebrity sang this during his birthday prod and it’s really related to him because his dad died already and he’s trying his best to give his dad’s legendary works a justice that it truly deserve. I know at that moment his dad is really proud of him. But this post ain’t about that local celebrity nor just the song itself. It’s the relation of the song’s meaning to a real life situation.
A very good friend of mine lost her mom recently and it really pains me seeing her acting like she’s all strong. You might ask me,why? Because I know deep inside her heart lies the deepest scar. It pains me a lot ’cause I’ve known her mom for being so supportive in all her endeavors, for being so religious, for being so strong and for being so hard-working. Her mom was loved by many. I remembered when her daughter and I joined different production numbers back when we’re still in grade school, there was a time that she stood as my guardian because my parents were busy. She’s really supportive like she’s a stage-mother in a positive way. No wonder, her children grew up in such a positive attitude.
During the burial, I admitted to my friend that I thought I’m gonna see her crying feeling so down for the lost of her mom. I was so surprised that she’s so optimistic all throughout. I got to ask her the reason and she just said ” HINANDA NA KASI KAMI NI MOMMY. HANDA NA KASI SI MOMMY.” At that moment, I felt the love of the mother to her children, to her family. I felt the strength that she gave to those people who love her so much. I felt that she entrust everything according to God’s will.
Tita, I know you’re already up there with all the angels and with the Almighty and you’d never read this post unless God installed a wifi connection there (i’m kidding! 😀 ) but I want you to know that my friend who happens to be your daughter, your blueprint and your angel here on earth is so strong because you taught her so much. She’s doing everything to make you proud. I know you are. She’s gonna be fine because you’ll be beside her every time. If you could see her now, she’s really grown up to be a fine woman just like you. You’ll be forever loved.
Your Little Girl
