200th post! It’s like it was just yesterday when I’ve reached 100 posts and now I’m up to 200! I apologize for all the delays I’ve caused though, school has been getting the best of me and that’s the reason why I haven’t been postin’ lately. Anyway, I’ve got to thank all my 154 followers! Thank you so much for supporting me in my endeavours of inspiring a part of the world in chasing their dreams, holding on to hope and drifting away from society’s endless demands! You’ve all been awesome and as promised, I’ll share you a very personal part of my life, a short background of “How I Met My First Love”. And since, I’ve entitled this blog article something completely not relevant to what I’m gonna post it, well, just bare with me! :) (Just so y’all know, the supposed title of this blog is 3 Times The Charm Part 1, but now I’m thinking of changing it to “How I Met My First Love) Well here goes…

How I Met My First Love

My love life has been one of the most influential and saddest things that have ever happened in my life and to tell you honestly, I’ve never had a girlfriend but I have fallen in love. Thrice. All of ‘em were failures but in each one of them I’ve learned a lot starting from patience, maturity, space and appreciation. In the first part of this chapter in my life, I’m gonna tell you my love story with Number 1 which we’ll hide by the name Maia. (Seriously, that ain’t her true name)

Maia was a very happy girl. She smiled a lot and often did stuff that made people happy without her probably knowing it. She liked horoscopes and it usually dictated most of her actions until even I believed in horoscope. At first, we didn’t actually talk but we did have eye contact. This eye contact we did was something we did to acknowledge each other and in all fairness, it made me really happy! It came to a point that I started to talk with her and I remember that the first phrase she told me was “Bungal ako eh!” (something like “My Teeth are not arranged properly”). I laughed and encouraged her to talk more until of course she left me ‘cause she told me she had this ride with somebody (which now I think was a lie ‘cause she’s a close friend of mine now).

Anyway, we had a bit of cliché talks everyday after that and it came to the point that I fell in-love with her. I don’t know how! I don’t know if it was because of her smile or because she was rather unique than anyone else, I dunno, maybe she just had the X-factor in her. Y’know that different feeling you have with somebody? That awesome feeling you have when you’re with him or her? Yeap, that’s the one. Moving on, I tried to ask if I could court her one time and it ended up in a bit of running spree. I chased her for like 3 minutes around the room and the corridors and I tell you, I’d like relive that moment all over again! It was definitely a different experience worth remembering. Sadly, things didn’t go well after that and after a year and a half, my heart suddenly stopped beating for her. I don’t exactly recall why but probably because we started developing into much better friends and if I’ve ever learned one thing with my relationship with her today, I might say that “Love doesn’t always end in a rejection, sometimes it may even begin because of it. Maybe not the love that you’re looking for, but a love that will also last forever.” As you’ve guessed, she’s currently my best friend and I doubt that’ll change any time soon!

And so that ends my 200th post! I hope to seeing y’all in my future posts! Also, as a bonus, I’ll be changing my theme and posting my new official mascot, the ”Rieikku” until the second version appears! Once again, I thank you for all your support! God bless and much love! 

Back in the first part of the post, I ended it up saying that there was a certain person who told me a portion of his life when he saw me seating in the corner of the corridor. His name was Jeffrey Doringo. He was this BS Psychology major that I knew because he was a close friend of my brother when they were in first year. Some say he’s a maniac, others a rapist while most a social guy. For me though, he’s sort of a mentor. For the nth time and yet again, I have found a wise person who’s worthy of my attention of my respect, heck I guess I could totally talk to this guy all day long if I can but of course, we both thread different paths so that’s highly unlikely. Anyway, Jep as my bro calls him gave me much needed advice and insights about life. He gave this idea that life in our school isn’t easy yet it is a place for those that are truly up for challenges. He told me that the pursuit of the diploma in our school is a difficult one yet once you’re close to the goal, you’ll eventually start what he calls some form of self-motivation so that you never lose track of the reasons why you’re studying. He told me so much more about his life and though I want to share most of it, I doubt he wouldn’t allow it (or would he?) ‘cause y’know most it is a bit personal and I wouldn’t want to divulge it to the world. To just sum it all up we talked about life and what you think others think about you. It’s like on that day, we were truly Psychology Majors, defining the human emotions and strengths…

After we finished talking, we headed straight back to the building where the enrolment was held. The current number that was being called inside the waiting room was still at 170 so Jep and I still had to wait for a long time, or so I thought. We didn’t wait too long for the enrolment went on overdrive the moment we came back after we ate lunch. It took only around 30 minutes for me to get back into the line and in the flick of a finger, I was yet again a certified member of this disastrous university. Before I went home though, I opened my phone and saw tons of huge messages leaving me with no choice but to leave Jep and go back to my house only to find out that Yo Baga Baga is currently there. (Yo Baga Baga is like a sub-group of Overnighters! which paved the way for Stainless Champorado.) As I’ve said, we were supposed to shoot for our upcoming channel but in ended up with ruins… NOT! 

Because we ended up not having been able to shoot for our first episode, we headed to SM San Lazaro where we ended up watching Paranormal Activity 3. It wasn’t that scary, it was rather just intoxicating to the brain ‘cause of the numerous thriller moments. I wouldn’t say the same for a friend of mine though who was not an avid fan of scary movies for he must have had a miserable nightmare that night. Anyway, after the movie, this friend of mine (yes the one who was going to have a miserable nightmare) started to imitate Tobita & Paranormal (those were the jokes we made whilst at the cinema) which totally gave much ruckus when we were at the floors of the mall. I mean c’mon! We were totally owning the place, not caring whether we were going to get reprimanded, scolded or what not! In short, we had fun! Even though we did not plan what transpired that day, it totally went on to become an awesome bonding experience! I totally love those guys and I don’t think that won’t change anytime soon! Check out a few pics in here! (Justin’s blog, just scroll down.) 

Conclusion: Patience does bode good things, maybe not even what you thought it would bode… Sometimes even better than that, maybe an irreplaceable item or perhaps an irreplaceable memory. :) 

Yesterday, I had this extremely rough day and I’ll go straight to the point since I don’t want y’all to hear how my crappy day went. 

First of all, the title. The title speaks of the first of many 7AM to 7PM classes that I will be having for the 2nd semester of my college life. That extremely bloody 12 hours worth of pain (still 10 hours if you take out the breaks) features 5 subjects including Chemistry (Laboratory), English Proficiency Instruction, Politics and Government, Developmental Psychology and “Pananaliksik”. (The last one being exclusive to our country since you know I’m a Filipino) Anyway, the day didn’t go so well yesterday ‘cause I had a hard time arranging my body clock and only two of the teachers yesterday actually got my attention. That being said, Tuesdays for me ain’t gonna be as awesome compared to Mitch Albom’s Tuesdays ‘cause for me Tuesday’s like hell where you come to school early and go home late and yeah, you do have a major headache when you come home. That’s why I had to have that early sleep yesterday which resulted to me actually waking up at 1AM, 3AM, 4AM respectively which yet again resulted to me blogging and ranting about this. 

I just hope that in some way or another I survive… The first of many 7 to 7s isn’t going to help my health but I do hope it helps me in the different hardships I shall experience in life even more! To end, I ask you a question, do you think adjusting is hard?

A while ago, I have just deleted ALL my tweets in #twitter (LOL) which means that I will be active in twitter yet again! 

In addition to that, I hope you’ve all noticed the recent changes to my theme (Paradigm Shift is no more! Eternal Cadenza is now in jurisdiction!). I hope you pretty much like it since I did go through hell to get all these done. Anyway, please keep supporting my blog. I’ll be keeping you posted in all the recent happening and stuff around our world! I’ve got tons of topics that are in store for y’all! Hope you read ‘em once they’re posted! :)

P.S: Stay tuned for my Facebook Fan Page! :P :))

First of all, I’d like to thank all those who followed me in my short stint in Tumblr. I’ve hardly been here a long time to get like 60+ followers but I’d like to thank those who take time to read the stuff I’ve been writing in my blog especially those who follow me in the process. Secondly, I’d like to thank those who constantly support my posts by re-blogging them. Your re-blogs are highly appreciated…

Anyway… I finally reached the century mark… It was not hard as hard as other accomplishments you’d expect but I think this would have to make an exception. 

I mean, ‘cause I don’t really post lots of stuff in my blog, or rather, I don’t just re-blog and re-blog stuff until I find nothing more there is left to re-blog. I actually re-blog stuff with sense in it. I actually try to inspire people with the different thoughts and pieces in my minds and other peoples minds rather than just post whatever the hell I want on my blog. Inspiring has always been my goal anyway.

It’s been quite a journey of inspiring people for me. I mean, back when I was just in my first posts, I wasn’t really as matured as I am today. I lacked motivation in posting for inspiring people and even lacked motivation to make friends or even keep old friendships. In short, I just wanted to live a dull and unsuccessful life. But as time passed by, I learned about the different struggles in life, I’ve learned to trust others and learned not only to inspire and motivate others but also to inspire and motivate myself. The experiences that I’ve had in the past year or so has totally changed me, and now, I plan to release my book (temporarily titled, Reverie) probably by early October to late December as both a softbound book and an eBook on the internet.

I hope that you learn different things in life and use the different experiences you encountered to make you a better person. I’ll be here to support y’all anyway! I also hoped that I inspired you in anyway at all.

Comments and suggestions are still welcome by the way! Thanks for sticking up to me! Cheers!
