Tsk, tsk.

Break ups and cool-off.

Why do they happen?

Possible explanations:
1. The act of 'falling out of love'.
2. Finding someone else better.
4. Things not working out anymore due to irreconcilable difference.
3. Or possibly, because the relationship has reached its zenith and each just wants to.. grow.

Who knows, right?

So, I guess you could say, I wanna have a cool-off with my blog. Yup, the sorrow.

Wala ako sa mood mag-blog, can't think of anything worth writing of. I'm thinking of starting a new blog again. Besides, our finals are approaching, after that I'm off to Philippines till school starts again. I might spontaneously come and post something from time to time but I doubt that'll happen.

When and if I'll be back I do not know. All I know is.. well, all I know is, I'm gonna be gone for awhile since me and my blog are having a cool-off. Tsk, tsk.

Warning: This Entry Might Not Make Sense, I'm Too Happy



Oh yay, after a billion and zillion I'm alive again. =)

Can you believe how time flies so fast? One day you just got out of school thinking of the free days ahead and the next you're blogging about how life sucks again due to the fresh pile of homework and submissions for school. Ang saya noh?

It's only the second day since Spring Break finished and my workload are full. Thank goodness I still have weekends and Internet to look forward. Ahh, my refuge, my sweet. Is this the right moment to say something like, "The silver lining in the cloud.."? I remember reading it somewhere, I think it must've meant something like that.

They say that with great happiness, there's suffering after that. Like parang meron kapalit lahat ng kasiyahan. Is that true? Somehow, this seems to be happening to me a lot nowadays.

It's like the classic soap opera, with its tragedies and extras. One moment everything's so happy and blissful and the next you'll see tears and hairs being pulled. Seriously. I noticed it a lot that after a short period of time being happy, you get hit by this ugly fugly twist of events or an equally skull-opening dilemma.

You could say, I'm afraid now. I'm experiencing happiness again at its zenith. But I know somehow it gonna get ruin again. Wonder how bad it's exchange is gonna be? Er, yeah I'm paranoid that way.

It's like this; have you ever felt so happy you wondered if it was just a dream? Too happy you think you're chest will burst? Too happy you think you're jaw hurts from for smiling for no reason? Too happy you cry thinking what would happen if it ends?

Ack. That sounded sickingly cliche and cheesy. I can't believe I just wrote that. Out loud. For the whole wide world to read. And I can't even deny them, they're all true. See, what I mean about being too happy? I can't even contain it.

So, why you may ask am I suddenly bursting with joy unknown to my usually-depressed-self?

Well, I guess you could say.. someone is making me happy. ^________________^

Failed Vegeterian: Exposed

Hey, classes are out at the moment, what's a girl to do when boredom strikes?

For some reason I had an urge to forbid my taste buds from ever tasting meat again and satisfy my stomach cravings with one of my most hated food group - vegetables. You should see my mom's reaction when I made this declaration, the look on her face? Ah, classic.

I was pretty motivated too. I got all these support from my family and friends as well. Sure, they thought I was just gonna give up at the end, but they tried very hard not to go, "Oooh, Pam, it's so delicious!". Oh, and supposedly there are tons of reasons why one should be a vegetarian (which I read in an article my moronic friend sent to me as a joke).

Deep breath.

It's healthy; vegetarians have a lesser chance from all those wacko illness. Humane as well, it really got me thinking that we systematically inflict cruelty on other species by simply eating them. Also, it's economical, meat is expensive. Most crops are grown for animals to be eaten, not humans. Meanwhile, a child dies in starvation somewhere.

And besides vegetarian eating is not about just boring leafy sticky things. You can still get protein, iron and calcium, knowing the right food. There's pasta, tofu and tempeh. Tofu is bean curd made from soya beans. Tempeh is a sort of nut-flavored cheese made from fermented soy beans. They're not just substitutes from meat, but rich in nutritions as well and a great source of protein. Hm, I think.

Bow.

But just last night, dinner was ready. Even though I eat in less quantity, I'm a person who gets hungry every few hours. So, you can imagine my horror when on the table I saw this plate with its essence and flavoring practically sizzling above its new newly-fresh-out-of-the-kitchen body: beef steak. Urgh, why, why? I was doing so well!

Bwa. So much for vegetarianism. I couldn't resist it. I hadn't tasted meat for weeks. Pfft, so, sue me, I absolutely salute and admire those people but vegetarianism is just not for me.
