25 Things

1. I am supposed to post this over at FB but since I decided that this blog will be my opening statement there, I just had it typed here (read: I yet have to find out how to post this over FB hehehe).

2. I got an invite for this several days ago and decided I was too busy but now with this very inspiring Saturday morning weather (cold & gloomy!) and too many posts i've read including my sister's, I guess I have to give it a try. Well, I'm already at number 2 in less than 5 minutes so I guess this isn't as nerve wracking as I thought it would be.

3. Self-incrimination is a personal art of mine YET i am aware (read:scared hehe) of web snoopers (for future employment purposes) so I guess I'll euphemise? a lot in the next 22 items. hehehe.

4. Do you just sometimes laugh for some past event spontaneously running in your mind not even the next person has an inkling about? Well I often do, and I laugh crazy and never care if people around think what the hell is happening to me.Crazy.Generic genetic.Bwehehehehe.

5.Ok, I just yawned and got stuck @ #5. I miss Maria.

6.I grew up in the rurals; when I was younger I always wanted to get it out. Now that I am older and living in the city, I see the bliss in a slower pace of life, the greens, the birds and the bees.

7.My bestfriend Wilmar,who has this big talent of being incommunicado for years, & I always remember that "the bluest skies are crystal clear & infinitely high". That saying keeps me sane up to this very moment. Let's talk about it sometime.

8.I love anime! as in anything cartoons. I am nostalgic over the classics though. Thundercats.Uncanny Xmen.Centurions. Nick & Disney's omniscient shows today are different in a sense. I guess there was beauty in scarcity. Somehow.

9.I am too wordy.Verbose.

10. I always thought GORGEOUS was spelled GEORGEOUS. oh boy, my big bad bad. =)

11. Stucked again at #11. I love the mildly cold wind. the gothic weather. I guess in my past life I was a vampire or some sort of nomad in the colder parts of europe.

12. Okay,number 12 and it gets steeper. Ayt, my first book was The Little Prince and I could not get over the boa constrictor that looks like a hat and the baobabs and the fox and that yellow snake with the Prince high up in some desert wall. And my Pa wrote a dedication on the book for my Mom (it was her's and then I grabbed it from her when I was 2;BAD KIDDO) and it said there: "To Wella, Never Grow Up." I still have to talk to my father regarding that.

13. I love my family. No matter how turbulent things were and things may come to be. You can't choose your folks, good or bad. Though its hard for me to say "I love you" to my mom without feeling awfully awkward,I'd die for them.

14. I find most priests big, damn hypocrites. To hell with them. You know who you are.

15. Okay, # 14 got the best of me. But I'll let it stuck for the record.

16. College was the one of the best times. The freedom, the booze, the lustfulness of it all(you fill in the blanks na lang if we are college friends heheheheh).It was turbulent (this is the 2nd time I used this word in a matter of seconds) yet a very intellectual point too.

17. I was 14 when I had my first mad crush. 19 when I fell madly in love. Still the one though, running 7 years.

18. I am technically a marine biologist but years of nonpractice has made me inept.
I never thought I would end up managing businesses, making decisions and all that directly affects people's daily lives. I would always be a child of the sea, loving the marina more than anyplace else. The sun and the blue waters will sustain me.Even at my darkest hours.

19. It's at the darkest when the brightest stars are most seen. And you'll see the grace of a dark backdrop where jewels of light would stand out and offer you hope that beyond the illusions of this world, there is something real out there.

20. I love Christmas! I love the carols, the cold weather, the entire season. I miss the christmases of my childhood, they were the best. It seems to be extinct but I can still smell the season.

21. I am very lazy at the gym.

22. I am generous to a fault.

23. I am stucked again. Oh yeah, I still love alcohol over the weekend and during lunch. Hehehe. I'll definitely be a member if there's an AA in Cebu. LOL.

24. "Wear Sunscreen". That's my mantra since I was 15.

25. Thank you Jaime & Maria. You guys inspired me to finish this. Miss y'all!
