We’re now connected only with laughters and videos and memories which remain alive in my side. Couldn’t even touch couldn’t hug couldn’t acknowledge right off the bat that it’s been long since we’d last seen each other. Promises of forgetting are broken So now we suffer the wall thick built between us, like we can’t see, like we don’t...

This is San Diego: UCSD: Be honest. Be brave. →
thisissandiego: http://vimeo.com/35557159 This video was shot on a random day at John Muir College at UCSD with a camera. We walked around Muir and randomly approached people. All I asked was if they’d be willing to share a secret, any secret- so that their peers would have a better understanding of the…

There's always something getting through.
Saw a montage of you, and I had to look away. My heart is still palpitating, like I just saw someone I’m trying to get over. Those few seconds of exposure felt like I was prematurely peeling a scab, and the needles of pain shot to the surface of the wound saying I’m not ready. I am not healed fully. At least not yet. That’s one of the reasons why I need to go back… one of...

My, how far you’ve come. You have no idea how proud of you I am. Right now you’re wondering where you’ll be and what you’ll be doing, but trust me: you’re gonna be fine. People told you that a couple of times, and probably some of them you didn’t believe. But you should know that you have an internal compass that has never failed you thus far. In fact, that...

Just a thought,
Do you think it’s still possible for you to know that you’re gonna marry someone the moment you meet her? Do you think it’s possible for you to be that sure that you’d be willing to wait that long, risk everything by not moving on to anyone else and just waiting for her to come to you? Do you think that’s possible?

A Beautiful Mind
Alicia: How big is the universe?
Nash: Infinite.
Alicia: How do you know?
Nash: I know because all the data indicates it's infinite.
Alicia: But it hasn't been proven yet.
Nash: No.
Alicia: You haven't seen it.
Nash: No.
Alicia: How do you know for sure?
Nash: I don't, I just believe it.
Alicia: It's the same with love I guess.

Charm
Giving that expression one more time, smiling - no - flashing, bright eyes, deep eyes, gazing straight threatening to melt your core. Eccentric, full of sense of humor, thinking of ways to poke holes on a straight-wave existence. Shrug, nonchalant, not knowing that everything is working its ploy to capture you, get you thinking, get you feeling your dreams again. The butterflies are back and they...

Tears.
I looked at my Grandma in the coffin for the first time. She was unusually pale - even in the realm of dead people, and what struck me about her was her smile. I kept looking and I started crying, thinking of all the memories I had with her. She was always the one who cooked for us… and up until now, I don’t think anyone has ever topped her Nilaga and Kare-kare. She always brought...

Morning thoughts:
I think I’m really starting to see who those people are, those that I’m going to keep with me for a long time. Towards the end of high school, I resolved to be open and give everyone my contact number and told basically everyone to keep in touch. Now that a semester of college is done, I’m seeing the ones I can easily hit up and hang out with. Those that I want to connect with...

Went back to Morse today
And I guess I have loads of thoughts right now. Morse is so different yet so familiar. I am deeply satisfied with the physical changes I saw - solar panel shades, new buildings, more e-boards. Guard was being all strict so we couldn’t go through the front gate… so we just walked through the PE area and was on stealth mode the entire day. Security fail LOL I didn’t get nearly...
