happy four years to my blog!!

wow. ang bilis nga naman ng panahon! i started this blog september 2003, that means in a few weeks, four years old na ang blog ko! wow.

i’ve never celebrated an anniversary for my blog, so this year, i decided to do something different. i am so amazed with the world of blogging kasi so many people can write what they feel and think, and in return, they find out so many people also feel and think what they feel and think. ang galing, galing lang talaga! i’m always left in awe when i think about it. hehe. anyway. i’m also so thankful for everyone who reads this blog and for everyone who leaves a comment, because it makes me feel na there are people interested in what i think and feel.. (diba ganun yun? hehe!)

so for my blog’s anniversary, i would like to answer any big or small question that you have been thinking about, that you think i might have an answer to! pwedeng tungkol sa philosophy, sa movies, sa life-in-general, sa dreams, sa shopping secrets, sa school tips, sa inyong personal advocacies, sa kahit ano!

of course i cannot promise that i will answer all the questions. but i can promise that i will read all your questions, and that i will give the best answer that i can to the questions i feel i can give justice to! i’ll be collecting all the questions this august, my first post for september will be my best attempt at answering the questions! :p hehehe.

naks, pati ako na-excite! and yes, if ever you have any, you can start leaving your questions now. :p

thank you to this travel book called beaches for the quotes and to maryann for the image.

a million thanks to my fabulous friend mori, who was a great travel buddy, who was my personal paparazzi every minute of the day, and who shared his similar angsts and dreams!!

the best of sing..

1. staring at the map figuring out which train to take to get to where you want to go.
2. taking crazy photos and confidently posing on orchard road.
3. walking around esplanade at night with the cool wind in your hair while staring at the merlion.
4. finding cool, unique, and cheap items in bugis village.
5. chancing upon a free cultural show in a spanish resto called 'the tapas tree' in clarke quay.
6. the night safari. astig!!
7. getting our much-needed caffeine-fix from the uber-cool 'the coffee connoiseur'.

just like the ups and downs of our personal life, our spiritual life also has its ups and downs. may time na malapit tayo sa DiYoS, may time din na nakakalimot tayo. i was in a spiritual high when i took lss and search-in back in high school, then i backslid amidst all the things on my to-do list during college, then i grew much closer to the LoRd when i met certain people in my life after college, until now!

after 24 years of MAJOR ups and downs in life, i've learned that one of the best, if not the best thing that can help comfort you? the bible! as in!! i've read the bible crying, laughing, hurt, angry, happy, fulfilled, lahat!! and really, what a difference HiS word makes.

meet my backpack bible, yet to be named (my most precious items are named, so pepel, think of a name na for this!), and just like a school notebook, i have doodles of all kinds on it. :p try it!!



allow me to share with you a few of the most powerful passages, that were shared with me those times that i needed comforting most. in case it might help you out or lift you up in any way. :)

"therefore i tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. and when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your FaTheR in heaven may forgive you your sins."
mark 11: 24-25, shared by spiritual guru connie reyes.

"therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees. make level paths for your feet, so that the lame may not be disabled, but rather healed."
hebrews 12: 12-13, shared by my wise-woman, tita sandy.

"'for i know the plans i have for you,' declares the LoRd. 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.'"
jeremiah 29: 12, shared by my darling friend toni.

"look at the birds of the air, they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly FaTheR feeds them. are you not much more valuable than they? who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?"
matthew 6: 26-27, shared by my guiding light, pastor doy.

"i can do everything through HiM who gives me strength."
philippians 4: 13, shared by me to you.
