The World Cup came to a finish and I wept.
I am such a sissy.
But can I help it when Italy won (Yey!) and
Where Streets Have No Name by U2 starts to play in the background while snippets of their previous (and oh so marvelous) games are shown? No. The beauty of it is just too much.
---------------Ang bilis ng panahon... Isipin mong limang buwan na akong nandito. Parang kadarating-dating ko pa lang ah.
Ambilis. Baka di ko mamalayan, sampung taon na pala akong nandito. Baka magulat na lang ako dahil lahat ay nagbago na sa mahal kong Pilipinas na... na...
Kapag iniisip mo yung oras at panahon, akala mo ang haba-haba, akala mo ang tagal-tagal. Yun pala hindi.
O baka naman ako lang yun. Palibhasa kasi wala ako sa sarili ko parati. Sabi ng nanay ko, iniwan ko daw kasi ang puso't kaluluwa ko sa Pilipinas. Siguro nga. Napilitan lang naman ako pumunta dito eh. Kaya kung iniwan ko nga ang puso't kaluluwa ko sa Pilipinas, aba'y magaling! Ang mahalaga'y alam ko na buhay pa ang bahagi na iyon ng aking pagka-tao.
Andrama. Pero totoo.
Ambilis ng panahon. Tapos ako, eto, sunod sa agos.Labels: feelings, me, thoughts

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.
