The Winds of August: A Diary

Rainy Day, A Perfect Story, and An Unplanned Trip – Second Week of August 2023

Last week, I decided to cut out sugar. I had been feeling some unpleasant symptoms already (HAHA gor na me! 🥹) and I was proud of myself for reaching seven days without it. I still ate rice, though, and drank coffee, but I didn’t add any sugar. I felt great after seven days! I had more energy, my skin cleared up, and I lost a few pounds. I’m going to continue cutting out sugar, and I’m excited to see how I feel in a few weeks.

BEACH MONTEMAR : Bantayan Island Bound Again and Sharing Some of my Fave Photos and Hated As Well

 

I always dream of going places but I as I get older my excitement diminishes. Planning about trips becomes more of a burden which hinders me from chasing those dreams. I tend to overthink a lot about the inevitable. Just like what I thought while looking at this photo I snapped while journeying through the seas to Bantayan Island. It was almost evening as the sun started to go down. The sunset gave me a beautiful sight but it also gave me the realization that a day has almost ended and a new day will be coming forth, full of unknowns and uncertainties. Another day for our cells to degenerate, we get older, our parents get older, the earth is not even getting better — a realization that nothing lasts forever that change is a constant matter. Ugh. I am just such an anxious and fearful being — a pessimistic idiot! Sigh.

That One Time When I Had my Hair Done and the Result Wasn’t What I Expected

Hair Strobing : The latest Hair Colour Technique by Matrix  in  Salon De Rose

 

“Keep calm and get your hair done for life is short to have a boring hair.”– One dreary day, I surfed up the net and browsed news feed in my social media accounts, until I saw that quote. It had no impact on me at that time. I ignored it because I do not care much about my looks.  Yup, I simply don’t care much especially about my hair. I just ponytailed it up and it was good to go. But then, Continue reading “That One Time When I Had my Hair Done and the Result Wasn’t What I Expected” →

When it Rains, When it Shines

When it Rains, When it Shines

 

          As the sky splattered its big tears on the ground, as the thunder rumbled its loud roar of anguish, as the lightning flashed its furious light, as the wind raged harder and harder Continue reading “When it Rains, When it Shines” →

Beneath the Azure Sky in TOPS at Busay

           Staring at the blank screen for almost half an hour, expecting some ideas to flash in my mind, I was frustrated. I shut it off with a plan to work on this the following day, then on the day after the following, then on the next day, and so on…Boom! Oh my… Procrastination or simply laziness hit me. Oh well, I gotta work or else I’ll regret this forever. Procrastination should not happen again because I hate it when I fail. I have missed my December entry. Since it’s 2015, here is my resolution: to have two or more entries per month as I embark on the new year with endless possibilities.

         So here’s my first entry in 2015, starting from the TOPS…
