I sing

"I sing because I'm happy. I sing because I'm free."  -- from the song "His eye is on the sparrow"

I sing when I want to be happy.

I sing because I can.

I sing when I want to irritate my family.

I sing to make it rain. I sing to make the rain stop.

Singing singing singing.

I'm going to buy a mic stand. LOL.

Ultrasound is normal!

so i've been sick the past week. got my first ultrasound and everything's normal. I have unremarkable organs. LOL.  R asked me if I was preggy...hmm.

i wonder if that implies anything?

will just be on medication for another week, then everything should be back to normal.

R was in Manila for just one night. Too bad we didn't get to see each other. E's arriving later tonight! hope the weather clears up so the plane can land!

not a single gram of fuck will be given today

Old biddy

So my kuya and I were at the bank. I bent closer to my kuya to whisper an observation (ok, it was something mean). After which my kuya said,

"Don't do that. It makes you look like an old biddy." -- I was hunched and my face was thrust forward like...well, an old biddy.

I said: "As opposed to an old maid?"

"Yes, nag-level-up ka na."

(-__-)

Koreanovela

Sometimes I pretend that I'm starring in a Korean romantic comedy.

Of course, I'm the plucky heroine. I just haven't found the handsome, bigheaded (but sweet on the inside) son of a....CEO.

Cue K-Pop here.

I like writing

these words that mean nothing.

And sometimes, when I feel myself falling in love, I go to the nearest wall and pound my head against it.

I get 3 missed calls from you.

I call you back, you don't pick up.

I text you "Why?"

No reply.

What was that?

For Twilight Fans

An excerpt of a conversation between Zach Barrows and Nathaniel Cade (The President's Vampire) in Blood Oath by Christopher Farnsworth.
_____________________________________

"I thought vampires were all sex gods with the ladies."

Cade looked at him. "What gave you that idea?"

"Uh...late-night TV, mostly..."

"Humans are our food. Do you want to have sex with a cow?"

That should clarify stuff right up.

Because I can

For my stop-gap boy

I'm just glad you don't read my blog. But here's something I've been trying to say

"I can’t love you because I’m scared. Because I’ve been broken hearted and I know the pain of losing something I love all too well. I don’t have another heartbreak in me, and sometimes when I look at you I imagine myself as a younger girl and I know I would have ridden into the sunset with you, had you asked, even if you were entirely wrong for me. I can’t love you because I’m so tired of love; its commitments and risks. I can’t love you because I don’t know if you’re worth the commitment or the risk and I’m not willing to find out the hard way, although I sincerely hope that one day I will be. I can’t love you because I don’t want to, and sometimes I’m afraid that makes me a bad person."

Read it in full here.

I have

this sinking feeling that I might be a mundane.

So I've accepted that I'm not Nephilim, but being a Downworlder would have been nice.

Waiting for Books 2 and 3 of the Infernal Devices Series, and Books 5 and 6 of the Mortal Instruments Series.
