Too bad we can't join the Valentine's Push tonight with other longboarders here in Cebu.
Well, there's always next year. Plus the cool cat and I have plans on finding this secret baby back ribs grill place called DUZ GRILL. Hope we don't get too lost.
Pictures from last year's spontaneous spot-hunting.
The cool cat and I were trying to look for good skating spots in the mountains.
Turned out to be a really good day of hiking and getting sniffed in the private parts by over-friendly dogs. Here's hoping for more impromptu adventures this year with our new love. ;)
P.S. Haven't posted in a really long time. But since I am now working at home and got too much time on my hands, I will probably be posting on this blog 24/7. Yikes! hahaha
Had an impromptu candlelit dinner to celebrate 5 months of love.
Everyday I count my lucky stars that I've found someone who's patient and understanding and is okay with me being weird and thinks I look pretty even when I haven't taken a bath yet.
It's true what they say, you know. That you should never settle for someone less than what you believe you deserve.
So for coming when I least expected, here's to you, love. xxx
P.S. This post also gives you guys a sneaky peeky at my new hair. It sucks the awesomeness in me. I don't know how many times I've thought of shaving my hair instead of looking at myself in the mirror. I always get the suckiest haircuts :( I miss my bedhead hairrrrrrr.
“Some
people come into our lives and quickly go. Some people move our souls
to dance. They awaken us to a new understanding with the passing
whisper of their wisdom. Some people make the sky more beautiful to
gaze upon. They stay in our lives for awhile, leave footprints on our
hearts, and we are never, ever the same.”
I just had the loveliest day.
Took Constance (my bike) out for a spin.
It was my first time biking around the city.
It was SCARY! But people were actually really nice
and supportive of how I was pushing those pedals
like my life depended on it. Random people in cars literally cheered me on.
It was humiliating..... and funny. My legs are now weak and wobbly.
But I survived! You may now call me Ms. LEGS OF STEEL!!!
After today, I think I deserve the title.
Here's to meeting new people who inspire you to live life to the fullest! :)
has been on repeat on my ipod for the last 2 weeks.
And I would like to dedicate this song to the love of my life, Loki.
Yes, yes.. I know he's the bad guy and he's out to rule
and destroy our planet. But underneath that angry, steel-like
exterior is a misunderstood creature who is just longing to be
accepted and loved. *Sigh* Or maybe he's just pure evil, but
either way, I'd still tap that.. Mmhmm..
I seriously need to go get me a heart-shaped locket
so I can paste his marvelous evil face in it and stare
at it all day daydreaming about our future together.. Tihihihihi..
Seriously.
Perfect Chemistry books about boys in Mexican gangs and their
unlikely love interests which make for a good story about star-crossed lovers,
that I suddenly remembered a movie I saw two years ago.
"Sin
Nombre"
(Nameless)
Sin
Nombre, directed by Cary Fukunaga, is an intertwined story
surrounding a teenage Honduran girl (Sayra) who is attempting to
escape to America for a more prosperous life and a reluctant teenage
boy (Willy aka “El Casper”) part of a notorious Mexican gang who
is trying to find a meaning in life. Their paths fatefully meet
when El Casper is forced to be a part of a hijack with his gang
leader “El Sol”. A turn of a events happen and El Casper is now a
marked man— “green-lit” for death by his own gang. (via tumblr)
This scene with new gang member, Smiley, after he was forced to
bludgeon someone's head with a metal bar. It was heart-wrenching.
There were times in the movie wherein I had a hard time watching
because I felt that it was just too harsh and too real. Like you know
something like this is happening somewhere else in the world at this very moment.
Sin Nombre is just too good of a movie to pass up. I don't remember
seeing anything this intense. Not to mention the cinematography was
just visually stunning in this kind of understated way. It makes you feel
like you're in the movie with the characters and going through every
emotion they're feeling and the situations they're in, too.
This movie wasn't really what I was expecting. It turned out
to be something more. If I had to marry a movie, this movie
would totally be the one I'd want to exchange vows with.
Hands down one of the best films you will ever watch.
Oh no, Casper. You could never fuck up my life.
What with a face like that? Never.
*Sigh*.. I swear this guy Casper will steal your heart.
The dynamics between him helping Sayra through out their
journey
to the border, and his heartbreaking expressions that seeped
through his tough exterior melted my heart.
Mara for life
I died a little during this scene :'(
In case you're still not convinced, watch the trailer here :)
