    CHRISTINE FALLS

    Ever since le boyfe started to train for work, I felt like my life is starting to get boring (i know i’m exaggerating) because I am used to going home and seeing him still awake and waking up seeing him beside me, but slowly I have accepted because whatever is happening with us right now, it is for the betterment of our future. Suddenly, I feel the urge to  wake up early, go to the gym, or better yet read a book. Then I went to BOOKSALE, just below my office and started going through books specifically “novel” and found this book from Benjamin Black. I have yet to give you a review about this, since I haven’t started reading it but to be honest what caught my attention was the price. It is being sold $25 in the US, but here it’s just Php 20. Cheap but pretty interesting… later when I get home, I’ll start to read a few chapters and maybe finish it off by the weekend.

    Last week, me and my mates had a dinner somewhere at U.N Manila, the place is just within the building i work for and as they say it serves good culinary dishes since it is being cooked by students that are currently on training (they say being trained by the best), mainly because the restaurant is courtesy of a culinary school which is really famous here in Manila. When i found out about this, i really didn’t expect much of what I am about to eat, but hey why not give it a try.

    Rating: ★★☆☆☆


    I was suppose to give it 1 star but since i liked the Smoked Salmon and the Chocolate Lava Cake, i decided to give it a 2. Other than that, the Main Entree was just “OK” same as the Raspberry Chiffon Cake was too hard, it tasted more like a medicine for kids. Food service was very slow, and one thing I hated there is that we already made reservations for a 1 pm dinner, but got to eat at around 2:30 pm because the place was too crowded and they didn’t even gave us a private room. As I’ve said, i didn’t really expect too much since I am very aware that the restaurant serves as a training ground for the students.

    Am I going to go back there? Definitely NO.

    Farewell, I’ll see you soon.

    Farewell

    The last 2 days has been a very sad day for me. It seems like someone just died (again) but this is different. Not just someone, but a few good people has left for good. Some of which are very close friends of mine, someone I’ve shared not only meals, but hard work and most especially laughs. 

    It just feels so different here right now, it’s not the usual set up i come in everyday. I miss the laughter, fashion crimes, and even stories about “Vice Ganda” and “Showtime”. It’s just so quiet here, deserted. 

    But as they say, the only thing constant in our life is CHANGE and one of the most difficult things to do in life is: ACCEPTANCE. We all need to move forward, things happen for a reason. 

    To my shipmates, i’ll see you again in another port! It has been an honor sailing with you. I will never forget all the wonderful memories we have shared. :)

    The beau has been busy practicing his photography skills and because of that we had this impromptu shoot in our garage. I love how hard he is trying to be a good photographer, well at least if he succeeds (and i hope he really do) it might be his forte.

    Based on the photos he took above, i highly believe he is excelling each and everyday he practices. That’s the right attitude! Try and try until you succeed.

    Between life & death… The Choices we make, and the things that we should be thankful for while we are alive.

    Earlier my mom told me that my Lolo’s cousin has joined our creator, Lola Aurora. I remember her as such a fine teacher, always delightful, very religious and very caring indeed. Just last month my cousin’s ex-husband passed away too, and even artists such as Amy Winehouse. Can you see how time passes by so quickly? the other day you were cracking jokes with them and the next day they’re gone, just like that. 

    And because of this, it made me value my life more. I always believe in the popular saying “live life to the fullest” because you will never know what tomorrow may bring. Agree? and it also made me realize those people that I am thankful for, the reason why I continue to live my life. :))

    Let’s start with our Creator, who has always been there for me. ♥ and never fails me :)

    My family ♥

    -my inspiration ♥ & my strength, the only reason why I keep on living. ♥


    The Sun! ♥

    - I have always been fond of good mornings! This keeps me up all day, seeing it shine and knowing that each and everyday is a brand new day to live life to the fullest! Make the most out of it!

    and of course, my ungas! ♥

    This big guy who has a very soft and loving heart!  He who amazes me everyday and keeps up with my tantrums! :) Trust me he is definitely worth keeping ♥

     

    I have a lot of things to be very thankful of, and I’ll tell you more about it in every post I make. (If i can keep it up, lol)

    And always remember, in this short life there’s no time to waste on giving up!

    xoxo
