My love for Korean food like samgyeop korean barbecue and also my sisters know no bounds. We will do anything and travel to satisfy our cravings. Last time, my sisters Jaya and Mae invited me to eat a late lunch - dinner at #samgyeopmasarap Korean Restaurant located at @smcity_stamesa. Yes, late na ang lunch namin at dinner nadin siya... I can say the decor was simple and bright, which is what originally drew my attention. The variety of meats/protiens get my second attention. It's well marinated and tasty... The service is nice and the staff is very friendly and approachable. So guys, if nag craving ka sa unlimited korean BBQ without having to go all the way to Korea hehehe, try @samgyeopsmnorth Thank you so much @ayamarie.97 and @_loveminmin for the bonding #samgyupsal #samgyeopsal #koreanfood #koreanbarbecue #foodtrip #foodie #FoodPorn #foodgram #instafood #barbecue #KaonTaNaimasPh #KaonTa #foodgasm #foodblogger #foodforfoodies (at SM City Sta.

the aftermath

"It was so painful, I started crying about it to my mom."

Hindi ko inexpect na aabot na ko sa point na yon. I felt better after crying tho. Sabi ko kay mommy ayoko pag usapan kasi ayoko talaga. I avoid it as much as possible. I write about it in my diary kasi my therapist asked me to saka I feel like it kinda helps but if possible, I don't talk about it.

Pero salamat kay Lord, may mga friends akong ready makinig and even mom. Di naman sya nakinig. More like pinagsabihan ako on what to do with it.

There are so many things I can't do after the breakup which I think, it will take time for me.

I can't go to the places we used to hang out or eat for the past years we've been together. Hindi ako makapunta ng Marugame Udon, CBTL, and Burger King sa Sta Mesa bc that's our spot. Sa SM Sta Mesa nga, hindi ko rin magawang tumagal. Had a panic attack, and I had to calm myself before the meeting last Saturday.

I can't listen to music that will make me sad kasi nga ayoko malungkot. May choice ba ko? Wala. Malulungkot at malulungkot pa rin ako. It will hurt until I don't know when. I guess I have to let the wound hurt until it heals on its own.

He always reminds me of so many things. I guess it will be like this until I don't know when.

I guess I really have to go through this and wala naman akong choice.

Thank you for everything.

Reconnecting With A Close Friend….

After not seeing my BFF for a very long time, I decided to reconnect with her and meet up with her in person for a bonding at a nearby mall – we had snack/coffee, played at an arcade game, tried out a live Bingo game then dinner.

We had a great time chatting over donuts and coffee just a few days ago (Monday – Aug 12, 2024) at SM Sta Mesa. She kept me company all the way home even buying a takeout coffee for my sister from Starbucks before going home.

I hope to meet up with her again and our other school friends when she gets back home from the province.

like placing relationship status on locked and only me privacy aint gonna make u paranoid in the first place. well oh well kahit gaano mo naman pagbawalan sila or sabihan mga bagay di ka komportable gagawat gagawa mga yan ng paraan. maybe im kinda hoping he would para pwede ko na ideadz sarili ko ng maaga. everyday is the same shit and i just feel overall hopeless and i cant save money for shit and i will never in my lifetime can afford to own a house or a car or pay an insurance. iced cofi na nga lng nagpapasaya saken tas addiction ko huhuhu. super lonely minsan kase mapapansin mo naman na napaka-offputting mo na tao, tried so hard to fit in, i am still fitting in and nakikisama din ako pero makikita mo din sino lumaki ng normal vs abnormal which is me. nakakapagod din pala mabuhay at isipin mo wala sasalo sayo. everytime bababa ako nakikita ko tatay ko na tumatanda at naiiyak ako kasi nawalan na ako ng isang magulang at ayaw ko isipin na mawawalan ako ng nagiisang suporta sa buhay ko. ni hindi ko nga mabilhan si papa ng nike shoes, maybe someday pag nakaluwag luwag. napapagastos din ako minsan pag nasa office kasi ano ba, bakit ba pinipilit ko makisabay sa kanila ehhh di naman ako talaga mayaman. well its cuz if i dont, i wont get any friends, i keep reading na people wont really be interested in you unless u offer them something... fuck ano pa ba patapon na ugali ko at mukha ako.... okay sige pera. i wanna believe there is an afterlife for me, where i was born in a normal household tho its kinda unfair cuz my parents did everything for us kahit na walang wala sila. naiisip ko ngayon kung gaano kabigat sa kanila maglabas ng 500 para lang makasama ako sa field trip kahit isang beses nung grade 6, shet buong araw na boundary na pala yun ni papa. i didnt know, all i know is that being a child and seeing your peers experience normal life and having new things, lalaki ka talagang inggetera. what the fuck do i know??? i have to spend my school years wearing my shoes until i literally cannot wear them anymore. in college, i have to beg my friend if she has extra shoes to lend me cuz kakamatay lang ni mama and i have to ask my ex bf if he can gift me discounted doll shoes sm department store, and i have to walk every from sta mesa to our house everyday tas partida butas pa yung sapatos ko. buti na lang di pa ganon kainit nun. maybe its my PMS time right now kaya nagtotrauma dump ako pero i just want to let it out and self-therapy myself and convince myself na SOBRANG LAYO NA NG NARATING MO at kahit yung mga nakagraduate sa mga mayyamang university sinasabi matalino ka at kayang kaya mo lahat at sobrang tapang mo. I dont wanna believe the mean voices in my head telling me otherwise. i have to push myself until i can die of old age. its sooooo fucking scary to be a fucking adult right now lalo ang mahal ng bilihin. im always soooo fucking scared. i guess what i always tell myself is ive been through worse and i can face whatever life will put me through. i dont believe in god but goddamn, will to live and perseverance is something. im a bacteria that is currently struggling but is hopeful that in the future i can atleast be sad inside a house.

World Water Run (March 18, 2023)

@mlqmynsltr Good day Ma'am, I'm terribly sorry for the late notice that this is one of my missing activities to you. :( I actually did the World Water Run during the date that you've given to us. I just kinda forgot to upload the photos 😅. Anyway, here's some of my photos during the event!

Me and my friends went and spend the time walking to the mall (SM Sta. Mesa). We spent looking for clothes as well as to have a leisure time there. After going to the mall, we went to the Shrine to walk and played volleyball until it was nighttime. My phone died so when we're playing volleyball it didn't count the steps. However, I did finish what I've input in the website (which is 2 kilometers!). We also did capture when we're playing volleyball using my friend's phone hehe.

i would like to talk about my journey on securing tickets for txt's act:lovesick in manila bc i forgot to update my tumblr 🥲. anyways, the day before the ticket selling was actually the day my grace test took place and i was over at my friends house to make our ap group project after. i got a message from my cousin that they already listed my name sa masterlist ng sta mesa campers. so after finishing our group project, i went home to get my essentials for camping and went straight sa sm. arrived at around 8pm and first settled at starbucks. when it was around 10pm, the group moved to mezza burger king bc sm was closing and can't accommodate the campers. i stayed up until 6am when we were already in the parking lot bc i was sleep deprived at this point 😭 took a quick nap in my seat while waiting for ticket selling. my first qn was 16 upon arrival but it became 10 a few hours before the ticket selling started. i was able to secure vip seated row c which im very thankful because of how close i was to txt 🥹 the core memory i had sa concert day was that i had school and club day, im lucky that my teacher was understanding and let me and marrianne go home early. i didn't have a concert buddy but i had marrianne, shaina and shaina's cousin as companions while strolling around moa before the con started. im also bummed out that it rained and my phone almost died mid-concert so i couldn't take videos, especially our summer encore 😭🥹 i had to reserve my phone's battery bc there's no way i can contact my family if my phone died. also given that moa has bad cellular signals.

MARY GRACE AND I MET FOR THE FIRST TIME Hello everyone, last time my family and I went to the @cafemarygrace branch in @smcity_stamesa to celebrate my tita-ninang birthday celebration and also mag chikahan... BTW guys this is actually my first time to dining in at #MaryGraceCafe, and I had no idea that they also served meals such as pasta, breakfast, pizza and more. The only thing I knew about this Cafe was that they sold drinks like coffee and their delicious home-made ensaymada, cheese rolls, and other pastries products. So that day I order •Pasta with seafood / Seafood Pasta •Wild Mushrooms Soups •Pizza sorry I forgot the name 🤭 •Tiramisu Cake •Nature's Raspberry Juice In my opinion, the place is fantastic and nakakasusyal siya, i love the interior designs and the decors, very fresh ang view, and regarding to the food I heartily endorse the meals. Especially the seafood pasta na ang sarap lalo na nilagyan ko ito ng Parmesan Cheese and Chili flakes... I will back again sayo @cafemarygrace and titikman pa kita ulit, este ang iba pang food ninyo... Salamat pala sa relatives ko na sumagot ng kinain ko hehehe. Love you all po. #foodPh #Foodie #foodinsta #Foodgasm #SmStamesa #instadaily #seafoodPasta #cafemarygrace #supportlocalph #food #foodblogger #bloggers #influencerph #tastegood #happy tummy #pastries #cakes #samsungphotography (at SM Sta.

Favor of God comes from fear of God. -David Platt

Going right turn to San Juan City from SM Sta. Mesa, this quote was said by Platt. My precision though.

Who of all do not want favor? Much more from God? Here I was instructed that every and almost all characters in the Bible, who experiences God’s favor are people who feared Him. I immediately ask if I fear God. If public opinion scares me? Or what my friends would think about me?

What it boils down is, this firmness of God’s word to those who fear Him. He who fears God fears Him for He knows him. Not just because he gives favor. But that there is no true and legitimate favor from God, if there is no visible and authentic fear of Him.
