I got bored. With no one to talk to or nothing to do (my Photoshop is hanging every single time! geez), I decided to bloghop.
Reading other people's blog (only those in English or Tagalog, there are many of the Portuguese and German) made me realize some stuff.
For one, I suck in blogging. My blog is full of rants, shallow stories of my day or my week. I started this blog because I want an outlet for emotions. I didn't even think I would have readers the reason my entries are uncensored, plain and straight. I even drop names, you see. And now I know I suck. Haha. Then again, I am no writer. I always tell my groupmates who assign the paper-writing to me, "I'm not good with writing. Do you want to risk our grades?" Still, they want me to do it. Pfft.
Second, there are plenty of nice layouts. My poor layout, it must have been so insecured right now. I promise, I'll do something about it. Argh. I forgot, I promise my blog a new layout this sembreak because I thought, I'm gonna be having plenty of free time. Er, promises are made to be broken, right?
Third, emotions are universal. Anywhere around the globe, people of different race, status, occupation, etc feel the same emotions we feel. Reading some blogs, I often find myself nodding and feeling for the writer. We all feel love, anger, frustrations, depression, happiness, jealousy...name it. You might see yourself in another person's shoes, let's say, a punk or an engineer. You may never know. Culture may differ, but emotions remain the same for everyone.
Fourth, I am still somehow lucky. Since I started blogging, all I do is rant about my "problems", deadlines, siblings, guys, intolerable professors, small fights with parents, irritating people and whatnots. And bloghopping made me realize I should be thankful somehow. I have read about having no job, no money, no family beside them, no friends because they just moved in, not wanting to move out but have to, bullies, complicated lovelives and more of those heavy stuff.
Nobody might be reading this but I just want to put this on something semi-permanent. I'll try to make my blog worth reading (even if nobody bothers to read this. haha).
So, that's for now. Hmm..I'll be busy for the next er, 8 days?? My dear blog, expect an entry full of pics the next time I drop by. :)

That too was my struggle (struggle?) before. Feeling ko my blog really, REALLY SUCKED! Pero it doesn't matter 'cause that's MY blog and this is YOUR blog. Who cares how suck-y the contents are?! It's our personal space. Hehe, but then again, there's this thing called "improvement" and it has helped me in writing. Actually, blogging has made me a better writer. Anyway, maybe I'll give you a blog layout as a present someday. (Someday, okay? It's not a promise, pero I'll try.)
Anyway, share ko lang, I went through my memory box (naks!) a few weeks ago and I reminisced. Hahaha. Read your giant congratulatory card for me. Wala lang. Memories. Anyway, yeah, miss those times. Hope we can hang out some time. Don't really have time to talk on the phone anymore. Kaya... MAGTEXT KA NAMAN! Hehehe. I still have the same Globe number.
God bless!
haha! i'll try to improve on my blogging. :P
yeah, sorted out my time capsule, too because I had to rearrange my room which has been unused most of the time. I saw the letter you gave me and the lyrics of the song we bonded over that you wrote on a notebook paper. you still remember it, dont you? :)
ok ok..i promise. i'll text you more often! :P
