We All Have That One Ex…

“Don’t end up with a man who sounds like me, who say the things I say, who can make you smile just like I did. End up with someone who will do things that won’t remind you of me.” – Verbal words from my Ex to me.

They said that a love that is in the past, is a love that has to be forgotten, but what if that love was the only thing that keeps reminding you of how much it hurts to find another one again? Well, the famous quote from Alfred Lord Tennyson, “‘Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.” is just a perfect explanation of everything I would want this blog to be understood of.

I’ve heard it from different people, they said it is hard to let go of something that you used to love and cherish; it is hard to let go of that person who made you feel so special and it is hard not to take your hopes up and expect for something better.

Over time, I realized how moving on doesn’t only mean you are over the person but moving on also means that you have forgotten the feeling and the regret you have when you let them go.

We all have that one ex that made us walk through a high bridge or touch the sky even if you look like a fool; that one person who made us feel like we are in a cloud 9 and that the world stops revolving around us when we’re together; that one person who made us eat veggies and home made fries instead of burgers and fries from fast food chains because they just do so and that one person who made us more comfortable watching movies leaning on their shoulders or spending the night over instead of partying with friends because they know that we have an exam coming for the next day.

To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before: A Movie Review (Moview)

“It’s not like in the movies. It’s better, because it’s real.” ― Jenny Han, To all the boys I’ve loved before.

Last August 17, 2018, Netflix has released the movie version of the book written by Jenny Han entitled To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before and every one is taking their last breath, like I would know because I have a lot of opinion about it.

To all the bookworms who’ve read the three book series of TATBILB, this movie is probably your sweet escape to reality after getting lost with the sweet words written in those masterpieces. I mean, right now, the movie is the closest thing you have with the books.

And beware to all the non readers and those who haven’t seen the movie, this is not for you…please read at your own risk… Continue reading “To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before: A Movie Review (Moview)”

The Opposites Of Life

You never see wonder until you put remorse on everything.

Like an ice cream, there won’t always be a filling.

Like a tear but never to be shed out of fear.

The strongest we are born, the least torn we grow.

Sadness won’t clear the room, if there is sorrow.

Five Reasons Why Single Girls Overthink

It’s not the status nor the relationship goals girls see on social media, it’s the fact that they are single. In this world full of relationship goals, we should remember there are the ‘singles’ not the boys but the girls who struggle with being alone in life. Yes, we have friends, but at the end of the day, singles will be singles.

So, Here are the top five reasons why girls tend to overthink things especially when they are single.

1. Because I’m on my mid 20s; like everyone my age is either engaged, married or steady with a husband and kids.tumblr_onsqunyisl1r0jkkko1_500

Girls are so much different from boys because most girls are put into pressure ‘if she won’t marry on her 30s, she won’t conceive a child anymore’. They are the ones who will bear a child, and the perfect age for the is on your mid 20s not only scientifically but also financially. It’ll be hard to raise a child if you have it on you mid 30s. I bet you are still working for the child’s school on your 50s which should be your close-to-retirement age already.

And old people say that it is better that you have a child on your 20s for you to be able to balance life, work and yourself. You are young and there’s still number of years to spend before your 30s. If you’re single, it’s a waste of time to sit there and watch ’em couples be happy. Continue reading “Five Reasons Why Single Girls Overthink”

To The Girl Who Deserves Better

You don’t need to tie your hair up or go to the salon just to make a guy notice you. You deserve someone who will see your beauty even with a messy hair and a ruined mascara or even with nothing painted on your face.
You deserve a guy who texts you everyday even if he’s busy just to check up on you or just to wish you a good day. You don’t have to wait for his reply because he will send you one right away. Continue reading “To The Girl Who Deserves Better”

To That Guy You’ve Always Hated But Never Forgotten…

You can slap him on the face but as you walk away from him, you will tell yourself that he is right; he is definitely pointing out whatever your mind screams: DONE!

You may have parted ways but you will still see each other around. You cannot just avoid each other because you were both from the same town. You may cross paths again but you will not confront each other, all you can do is smile and pass by.

Modern Day Dating: Swipe Right or Swipe Left

In our generation now, going to clubs/bars to hang out is too blunt. Why not swipe right and look for someone who will match your credentials (like they like you just the way you like them) I’m not washing any hands in this section because I, myself, have tried that thing too. (Tinder, OKCupid and Skout) Although, I’m not talking about me getting someone to hook up with but I just want to tell everyone how using this app can cause you major disconnection with the real world and the real steps on dating.

These are 10 signs that dating apps had invaded your life and you might want to have a second look from using it.

1. You have experienced ONE TEXT STAND.

This is when a guy you got matched with, talked to you for the whole night and then he unmatched or blocked you the next day. I mean, yeah, same with the usual one night stand but the difference is you never did anything although you shared some info about yourselves (sometimes it’s even personal). Too bad how other people think dating app is for casual hook ups only but it’s not. OKay you date but why not meet new friends using those?
I’ve met some who were like that, yes, I had experienced one text stand! and I also did that to someone for a reason. Continue reading “Modern Day Dating: Swipe Right or Swipe Left”

From An Open Start to A Close End

“One thing I’ve learned is that you don’t have to be so attached of anything. You both agreed that you’ll just be partners and that he can see someone and you can do the same…”

Easy? It looks normal to everyone but not until you engaged on it.

 What is Open Relationship?

It is an interpersonal relationship in which the parties want to be together but agree to a form of a non-monogamous relationship. This means that they agree to have intimate relationship with another person. Basically, an open relationship is when two parties involved have two or more romantic relationships occurring at the same time either as a short term relationship, such as dating, or long term relationship.

There are three types of OR. Continue reading “From An Open Start to A Close End”

The Beginning of a Big Dream… My first novel: CHAPTERS

Yes. The first ever book I actually wrote.

How Did It All Start?

After I graduated from college, I was in the middle of a postgrad situation. I don’t have any idea on where to land exactly after years of flying. I mean, all of my classmates are already working while I’m just sitting inside my apartment doing nothing.

I tried applying to different companies but no one actually had the interest on hiring a fresh graduate that time, although there were also companies who welcomed me their warm-hearts but I’m the one refusing them because of two reasons: the salary and the work itself. I’m too picky and too careful on accepting contracts that’s why I ended up with nothing.

I became a freelance assistant researcher, helped some of my friends with their thesis and later on became a Corporate Strategist. I did some projects that are way beyond my capacity. Read books about business and management and also studied the whole market. It was an obvious win-win situation for me because not only that I earn money but I’m also learning so many things while researching.

I became a management consultant and did some of the strategy works behind a big company and yes, I was able to make money out of it. I work with my projects only 2 days in a week that’s why I have so many free times to spend and to waste. Continue reading “The Beginning of a Big Dream… My first novel: CHAPTERS”
