By the window to the woods where the labyrinth of ancient trees exist, there is a wandering wallflower. She had a fair rosewood complexion, straight russet hair, delicate and pallid face, coal black eyes and faux lips. A dreamer of dreams with a sore heart. She lives there among her books and tea and a measure of heartache. Hoping to the immortal gods of olympus to find her lost soul in a porch somewhere in Monte Carlo. Still waiting for the enchanted happily ever after and falling asleep far, far into the starry night.


"but of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof, thou shalt surely die."
genesis 2:17

I’ve been improving!

 I can’t believe how industrious I’ve become these past few days. Wow, I’m being a really good girl. Thanks to my grandmom, I finally learn how to manage household assignments. My dad left early again. What we had for breakfast today was Pinoy Classic Ensaymada and brewed coffee. I prepared it all by myself. I think they were pleased by my sudden obedience, my grandmom was nice this morning. Not her usual exasperate self. I cleaned my room and continued reading twilight. I know, I’m so obsessed with sparkling vampires. Lunch, I was the one who cooked yet again. Pink Salmon with egg sauce was the menu for today. I washed the plates of course. 

      While watching some DVD’s that afternoon, my grandma asked me to come with her in the Bank. She’ll be needing to get her ATM Card already. When we get there, she quickly asked me to help her operate her card. She wasn’t that hard to teach, she learns quickly. We went to the groceries after that, I offer to cook the dinner when we got home. Grandma agreed, I’m glad that she finally trust my cooking skills. Later that night, my mom asked me to fetch my cousin Uno. She said that she missed him so much. I borrowed it from her yaya because Ate Glenna wasn’t there.

      Oh, my mom left me a hundred peso bill for my snacks. I can’t believe that it’s the only money I have since the vacation started. I’ve been wasting my allowance improperly. My all through empty pocket never changes it’s status. Why?

05.21.12

     And so it had been a productive day. I cooked scrambled eggs for breakfast and bought cheese pandesals at the bakery. After that, I cleaned the plates. Me and my mom had a heated argument but it was quickly mended. There’s nothing much to do so I went back to sleep. When I woke up, my mom was already dressed and off to work. My grandmom was irritated as usual,that’s her trait that had been considered as a morning routine by the family. While waiting for my favorite anime to start, I read twilight and got a little too preoccupied. When I turned the tv on, the program already started. My grandmom called ordering me to do the cooking. I went downstairs willingly. Cooking was the only chore that I volounteered to do. While simmering the sweetened pork, I cooked the rice. 

      My grandmother talked about Ate Glenna (she was my aunt but I call her “ate” out of habit) the time we are eating lunch. She babbled about these and that with my frequent answers of “yeah” and “hmmmn”. That’s the best thing about her though, she can keep on talking without needing a proper reply. She supplies the whole conversation with her words. I did the dishwashing again. After the kitchen had been clear, I went upstairs to continue reading. I haven’t even started a sentence when I fall back to sleep again. Weird, I’m not used to sleeping during the day, It always made me feel uneasy. Tita Daloi arrived, and she brought a KFC Bucket Meal. I happily ate the chicken while she and my grandmom chat. The other weird thing is I didn’t usually eat fried chickens without any rice, and, I only eat the breast part. This time, I ate the chicken whole. This place was messing with my appetite, I desperately needed to burn off the calories.

      Evening. My mom came home with some breads from the pastry shop near the village’s front gate. It was my cousin’s birthday but we didn’t go to their place, Tita Daloi went and sent our regards. When they came, my mom and my aunt talked about random stuffs. The day ended and I felt contented that I’ve done my house tasks properly. As a gift for my hard work, my mother bought me a pair of earring from Terranova.

Thanks Mom! You are the best.

      My mom went to the mall with some friends today. She promised me that when she got back, she’ll have my new clothes with her. At first, I was shocked because my mom wasn’t famous for her generosity. She laughed at my confused expression. Later then she told me that I needed those clothes because she enrolled me at an UPCAT Review School that’ll be starting this May up to June. I couldn’t complain because my closet was like an empty book these days. The sun was already rising when she came, four in the morning. I asked her what took her so long and then she told me that some classmate of hers just came from Spain. She hand me the clothes and I was like, asdfghjklthanks! haha :D

While taking pictures, I ate some Hershey Miniatures just to pass the boredom. I almost forgot that we have some chocolates in the freezer. I’ll try to post the pictures k?

Play Store +

      I downloaded a lot of applications today using my Android phone. (Samsung Galaxy Ace: Globe UnliSurf Plan 1799). I find it very useful because you can surf and install new apps instantly. I truly regret that I discovered this program just now because of my stupidity. Anyway, my memory card was almost full when I’m done downloading. Now, my phone contains several apps to make me happy. Here’s the list:

  • Instagram 
  • Pixlr-O-Matic
  • Tumblr  (Free)
  • Twitter  (Free)
  • Angry Birds Space is out of this world Edition
  • Virtual Gym
  • The girl with the Dragon Tatoo (Full Novel)
  • Mortal Instruments eBook
  • Cam Scanner
  • Chess Free

      Instagram, I’ve been dying to have this. I’m blaming my dumbness and laziness for this. Pixlr-O-Matic, just like Instagram but with extra features. Tumblr and Twitter of course, I can send updates for free! Isn’t that great? Angry Birds Galactic, I know it’s really childish but really fun to play with. Virtual Gym, I needed a workout, badly. The girl with the Dragon Tatoo, my dad recommend this to me. Crime novel and agent cases. Mortal instruments, advised by my cousin. I’m running low on supplies of books this month so yeah. Cam Scanner, the title sounded interesting so I downloaded it. Chess free, I’m not that good in Chess, it is the game for the smarts and I’m either a moron or a gullible.

I was told to beware the accursed spindle, but it was so enchanting, so hypnotic… .
I was looking for a little adventure the day I ditched my tour group. But finding a comatose town, with a hot-looking chick asleep in it, was so not what I had in mind.
I awakened in the same place but in another time—to a stranger’s soft kiss.
I couldn’t help kissing her. Sometimes you just have to kiss someone. I didn’t know this would happen.
Now I am in dire trouble because my father, the king, says I have brought ruin upon our country. I have no choice but to run away with this commoner!
Now I’m stuck with a bratty princess and a trunk full of her jewels… . The good news: My parents will freak!

Think you have dating issues? Try locking lips with a snoozing stunner who turns out to be 316 years old. Can a kiss transcend all—even time?

05.12.12: Blast III

May 12: Evening X All in beat

      It was a long and frazzled day.My feet were dead tired, my eyes sore, my body worn out. The evening traffic jam was unbearable. I waited impatiently for the car to move just a tiny bit further but we have been stuck in there for like forever. My mom called saying that we need to hurry up cause she’s alone in the house. I told her that maybe she can go to my aunt’s house since there’s a little gathering there. She said okay and then asked me to pick her up when we get home. 

      When we arrived there, they were already eating. Monstrous shrimps and crabs are on on the menu. Seafoods fresh from Aklan and chocolates everywhere. My aunt’s (my uncle’s wife) sister just came from the US. The adults wobbled their way in their own little conversations. I’ve been bored to death for the rest of eternity there. Finally, I’ts time to go home. I quickly clean myself up and then off to sleep.

      Oh, I forget to tell you that I had my first scribble on my doodle book already! I want a space in my doodle book to be allotted strictly for my personal blog’s title so here it is.
