Happiness is a state of mind.
Just a while ago, a good friend of mine asked me whether I was going to NJ for good. I said, "Well, I haven't decided. But I might come home and pursue my dream of becoming a politician." But that's just something lame I tell everyone. I'm really coming home for someone. Someone I promised forever to.
Since I won't be going to school for the second sem, I might not be able to see any of my friends anymore and I texted this Special Someone of mine. I asked whether we could see each other tomorrow. "It might be the only chance I get," I said.
I awaited the reply eagerly, praying that the answer would be "Sure. What time?" or "Where?" But minutes flew by and no reply came.
I held on to my phone. Then my phone starts vibrating. It read... *secret*. It was my special someone! My special someone was calling
me!
I went outside of the house to grab more coverage and answered the call. My heart was beating faster than ever...
Please say yes. Please say yes...Di ako pwede eh... I have to tell you something... May...
---------------My special someone's already taken. Who would have thought? Not me. *headdesk* I was stupid to think that no one will fall for my SS - the most wonderful person alive...
I know my SS is happy. And for that, I'm happy. I'm happy. I'm happy.
I sound like I'm trying to convince myself, don't I?
---------------Well, so much for coming home to the Philippines. Nothing to come home to.
---------------Happiness is a state of mind.
Tell me again how happiness is a state of mind.
Please tell me again...
---------------Happiness is a decision.
I must make that choice.

Randoms things about me
I'm Kitten :)
I get a year older every 17th of August. I am a Leo, and I carry all traits associated with that zodiac.
Right now, I'm twenty years old and I'm loving it. They say we're only as young as we feel. I feel like I'm five.
I would never leave the house without my Zen and my E2. The latter connects me to the world; the former takes me away from it.
If I were to choose a word to describe my life, that word would be
crazy.
I am in love with the stars. I am in love with the rain.
I am a Rutgers University student, and I want to graduate with an English degree. An English-Psych double major would be nice. An English-TCert would be even better.
I want to be a teacher. I want to be writer. I want to be both.
I thrive on indie and emo. Mae, The Spill Canvas, Copeland and Daphne Loves Derby - these are the guys that I listen to. I listen to other bands here and there, but mostly those are the bands I follow. That being said, I'm a mainstream moron.
There's no feeling more lovely than being carried away. People don't usually think of me as somebody spontaneous, but I like being swept away as much as the next girl.
I fall in love easily, but it is really hard for me to fall out. Really hard.
I am very fragile.
I am tolerant of almost everything except one thing: intolerance.
I am an extensive reader. I thirst only for meaning, nothing else.
I love my friends <3
I am extremely spiritual but not religious.
Things I want to do in my life time
Get a job.
- Save up enough money to go back home -
wherever that is if I ever had one before I'm 40.
- Write a book.
- Sing for a Disney movie.
- Buy a house on top of a hill.
- Go bunjee jumping.
Travel halfway around the world.
- See Italy.
Find the one person who makes my heart beat faster and slower at the same time.
Draw and paint.
Learn how to play Sudoku.
- Volunteer for American/Philippine Red Cross or UNHCR.
Quit smoking.
