Ilang tulog nalang, pasko nanaman.

Chirstmas is so near and I still haven't felt it. When I was a kid, I started feeling it as soon as Halloween ended, but now I'm just so caught up in the stress that I've been living my days just to get by. Yeah, that's what you realize after a day of prayer. My week's been hell. Actually, maybe this whole month, but the past few days have really topped it. I don't know if it's disappointement in others or ultimately self-disappointment for expecting otherwise. I found myself thinking how much I wished I could go back to the good old days because back then, I rarely felt these for reasons that maybe only I know. I never used to understand why things like these happened to people then. When I grew up, I realized that people are just really different. Maybe what makes it so sad is that I can't really share it with anyone because it just puts me in a spot, which I would rather not do. Maybe that's why I'm a sponge that never gets squeezed, but I've had worse days. Sometimes people don't realize this cause I try to be happy, but damn it, sometimes

I woke up early yesterday after one of those really late nights to go to a day of prayer. At first, I was cursing under my breath because why the hell did I have to wake up so early, but it turned out for the better. I got to spend time alone with myself and reflect on my other blessings. Then I got to go to conession and hear mass. By the time I got to Butterfly for lunch, it was time for Sunday club and I felt like crap. I was so sleepy, groggy, head hurting, throwing up feeling. By the time we got home, I did throw up and went to bed at 9:30. Well, I feel much better, but I still need to heal myself for the coming Christmas.

What a week

Let's see, my week has been characterzed by little sleep, fatigue and great company. It was really stressful and really unlucky but it took a turn with a good car ride, mass and breakfast the next day. Plus, there was also Sunday club which made it all better. We went to the Pinto Art Gallery in Antipolo, exploring in UP and dinner in Bherrouz in Tomas Morato. Now I need to sleep

Perfectly Imperfect

There are times when you think you can take on everything in the world and you actually believe that you are invinsible, but there are times when you realize you're just not. Sometimes, you feel that the world is on your shoulders and it's driving you crazy, but you just have to keep going on. You thought you could do it all on your own, but you realize you couldn't, so you ask for help. But sometimes, help doesn't come. Or sometimes, no one can really help or understand. What do you do? You try to fix things yourself and realize that you could be super afterall. Then, you realize that you don't like being super anymore because you feel downright abused.

Sometimes, you just wish everything could be perfect, but sometimes, you realize that imperfection is perfect. Why? Because it's familiar. Because it gives you a reason to keep improving. As human beings, we always want to transcend ourselves. So now what? Do I still want to be Supergirl? I guess after all this, I just want to be me, imperfect with moments of being super, but I think I'm perfect that way.
