Same old, same old, but not really.

Wow. Just wow. I never thought I'd find this blog again. How long has it been? Last time I posted something here was ages ago. I was still working for this sorry of a company back then (hahaha no hate tho).

So many things happened over the last couple of years. Life really is a roller coaster. I remember back in college, I was so sure that I will become a surgeon one day,  but nah. Life slapped me in the face like his b*tch and fast forward to 2018 2019, I'm now a working professional in a software company somewhere in Ortigas, far from my forever dream of becoming a doctor. Am I disappointed? Maybe. Maybe not. See, what I learned so far is, life almost always never happen the way you want it to. It's really not like the movies, but I still think it's wonderful...very. I may have not gotten to where I wanted to go, but I am where I should be. It's not always sunshine and rainbows, but I grew so much as a person and learned so many valuable life lessons that I wouldn't trade who and what I am now for anything else. I've met many people, and lost more. I may not always be happy, but I am satisfied.

I can't believe it's already 2019. I mean, how come? I was freaking twenty just yesterday! in just a few weeks, I'll be twenty six. It's so crazy when you think about it. You go from being a pa-sweet teenager to a mid-twenty stressed and oversized adult in a blink of an eye!

I wish I had kept writing here so I can look back at my teenager self and laugh more haha. My golly, aren't I the cringiest person ever?

I don't know what to say anymore. I want this year to be full of positive vibes. This year, I will focus more on myself. I won't be as hard on myself. I will walk more slowly and enjoy the everyday war-like commute. I will eat slower and actually savor the food. I will forgive myself for making mistakes and being angry over the littlest of things, pat my back for working hard, and surviving yet another day without breaking down. I deserve all the happiness in the world. No more self loathing and self pity. Just love. ❤




Forever matakaw,
Darnae

Let The Good Times Roll!

Contrary to my previous post, this one will be about the precious moments that I've spent with awesome, crazy, lovely people :)

My phone won't stop bugging me about how low my remaining memory is, so I had to make this post just so I can let go of some of these pictures without really losing them. Sucks to be poor, eh? XD

First pic of wave 16

two of my most favorite persons in the world! just how lucky can I get? :) 

fierce XD di kinaya ng puno. 

#boyhamog(read as hastag boy hamog) and Ka-Ipe

HAHAHA! can't help but burst out laughing whenever I see this photo. XD seriously.. back story: we were having our lunch at the pantry, and of course, as usual, I'm only focused on what's on my plate.. gobbling it down like there's no tomorrow... when suddenly, I noticed the two of them watching something on TV.. so intently that it actually took my attention away from my food. I looked up to see just what these boys are watching.....and voila! they were watching Barbie of Swan Lake. Yep. Two grown up men...watching barbie as if it's some kind of action movie. You can even see #boyhamog's mouth slightly open.. I guess he was awestruck at how beautiful Barbie is? idk hahahahaha

From L to R: Enzong Dee, #boyhamog, Mari, and Pulpol

we were headed to SM Mega, I believe.. XD and to save money, we kind of forcibly fitted ourselves in one taxi. And yes, as you can see (though I'm not on the picture) all of us are pretty big in size... except Enzong Dee on the leftmost corner.. I'm so sorry Enzong haha

just a random shot of #boyhamog worshipping the karaoke monitor

#boyhamog bragging about his toy XD edi wow!

In all seriousness, am I the only one who finds this photo hilarious? it's like he's saying "I killed this chicken with my own hands..... see these remaining bones? I'll eat them for snacks later"

 I think this was when we had electric cheverlu hydrotherapy.. XD this is my TL! She's the best.... and it was really hard for me to adjust after she left :( haha can't wait to hang out with this kabogable tl again

when you're so full, even breathing becomes a task :D

#boyhamog with our beautiful supervisor :)

because working in cc requires you to work even on Christmas and New Year, we had a little salo salo

we always eat fast... so we always end up with over 30mins spare time during lunch.. and what do we usually do? tambay! XD
