When life becomes MINE

without comments

A month from now…

I just got a sweet gift from the heavens.

A break; a breather; a time out…a complete stop..

A time to assess my present and my future…

No time will be spent for my past. I already had the time I needed for my past. I’m done with it.

Time away from the daily things I love doing… Meeting my everyday buddies…
chatting with my everyday chatters..
watching with my everyday watchers…
eating with my everyday eaters..
working with my everyday workers..
greeting my everyday greeters…
laughing with my everyday laughers..
kidding around with my everyday kidders..
to top it all..
(loving my everyday lovers hahaha! joke)

Last time I got this stop, my motto was healing…this time my motto is…I HAVE NO IDEA. This makes everything way better than the last time I had this moment.

My life this year was indeed a rollercoaster ride…anything goes…as if I had no control of anything..If I mess up things…I believed things will still fall into place. It did but I should not rely on the fact that I am God’s spoiled little girl.

Although, I still believe that things will fall into place…I think I can’t just be all livin la vida loca…part of me wants to be more serious…to set things straight…not to just escape everything…be more responsible…have direction…plan things out…believe in planning again and push yourself to get what you want (whether you get it or not)…

Spontaneity in life is a good adventure but its best to decide where it’s heading. This will make my life deserve such a title…MY LIFE. There should be effort to get to where you want to be but I would still enjoy the ride even if there is a detour all of a sudden.

Ok..ok..

I’d like to change a section in my statement:
Old Me: “The last time my motto was healing…this time my motto is…I HAVE NO IDEA.”
Me: “The last time my motto was healing…this time my motto is…finding my direction.”

Whereever this may take me..let me be taken….(hahah weird whatever that means).

oops…Whereever this may take me..let me be taken….because I want to get there.

Thank God for Spiderman.

(Let me talk seriously about something silly..) 

I am not scared of insects..i think…well, based on the common ones I know of..I am not unless all of a sudden you surprise me with new ones and new breeds. I just had a fear factor scene a while ago.

Can you imagine yourself in a small space, enclosed..then you see something crawling from the wall? slowly crawling? its a huge spiderman like insect (hehehe nice simile right there). its not unusually big but its big. its as big as the palm of my hand.

Well, that’s my story. So what was I thinking?

1.) I cannot kill it. Its too big for a mosquito kind of killing action. Its like killing a rat with slippers. That’s weird.

2.) I actually plan to pour water. Doing so would mean it can move from the wall to the floor.  That gave me the creeps. I’d rather have him on the wall than on the floor that I step on to.  (interesting huh, let’s dig deeper..like an RCA kind of thing)

Why? because I don’t like it near my feet

Why? because I don’t like it when it moves and its near my feet.

Why? because my feet will need to some reflex action for me to escape it. I don’t like lots of feet movements when I am staring at danger. I need it placed in a position where I can escape easily. Go near everything else but not my feet.

Why? My balance relies on the position of my feet. My balance is needed for me to escape.

Why? Balance..equilibrium state..I become open to all options for movement

Why? When all options of movement are open, I can do the freakiest and the wildest escape ever at a snap of a finger.

Why? I may have put myself in a fear factor position but what keeps me sane the whole time is that escape is available.

Why?Why do I need escape to be available.. STop (this will never end)

3.) Face your enemies. I need to stare at it the whole time. Never let your enemies out of your sight.

The more it moves the creepier it becomes.

4.) Assess the enemy. It just moves up and down. There’s no way it can be closer to me.

So there, I made it there.  The best shower ever.

The more I think about it, I was lucky.

If it was a cockroach..the big ones that fly. It would be a different story.

 Thank God it was spiderman.

 Your celebrity soul mate is someone who’s Cute

Your natural, no nonsense approach to life is like a breath of fresh air in the hoopla of Hollywood. A sweetheart like you would be best matched with a celeb who’s as down-to-earth as you are. Someone who is cute and fun to be around is what it’ll take to make your heart go pitter-patter. A cutie pie like Orlando Bloom is just what the love doctor ordered for you.

You and your perfect partner would have a blast on low-key dates away from all the glitz and glam of Tinseltown. What could be better than a quiet night at home with a movie, popcorn, and plenty of one-on-one time with your beloved? So, pop in a DVD and enjoy a cozy night with your celeb soul mate!
