...the girl, JOAN.




*I love the city life, but I'll always be a small town girl at heart.

*I never regret a thing, it's a wasted emotion

*I live life to the fullest each day. I've seen that life is just too short not to take chances.

*I am outgoing and i do crazy stuff especially when i'm with my friends

*I love taking pictures and writing on my blog so that someday, I can say these words to myself:
"..I have lived a happy life."

*I don't let things bother me or get in my way..I will succeed because I know I will.

*I am a risk-taker; what's the sense of making mistakes if you can't learn from them?

*Nothing could go wrong if I just follow my heart

*What doesn't kill you will make you stronger and tougher.

*-AD ASTRA PER ASPERA-; TO THE STARS, THROUGH DIFFICULTIES*

...FALLING STAR


I wished upon a shooting star Falling to it's death
 My wish came true
It brought me to you
 But only to show me
 Just to share with me
What I can't have
 I am like a star
 Flickering in the night
 One minute you make me feel so right
 The next second I run away
 Afraid of being happy
 I am an angel with a broken wing
 I hide it with a mask
 I have so many deep wounds
 I have been scared
 It is not my fault that I am this way
 He did it to me
 He cut me so deep
 There's so much hurt inside
 I have hidden it well
 But my heart has been torn
 I feel like Hell
 Please heal my wounds
 Help me to love you
 I already do
 but help me to stay by your side
 Before I fall to my lonely death
 Just like the star that brought me to you

    I woke up 7:00 am and I was surprised to see that it's still dark outside! well..it's because of the time chorva. I can't go back to sleep so i've decided to walk around our complex. When I went outside the house, there's a lot of people walking. The weather is so nice and the flowers were starting to grow (I love the cherry blossom coz it's pink..Gardenia is also cute). I was also surprised to see a lot of Korean and Chinese walking around..Naalala ko tuloy yung bestfriend ko sa Philippines..Na-miss ko sya bigla. They say 'hi' to me (they look like 16 to 18 yrs. old). They were two girls and 1 guy. The guy is cute but he can't speak English that well. The guy's name is Kim Hye while the girls were Yan Bie and Siao Jien. Kim Hye is just visiting his cousins here and he will be back to Korea as soon as possible because of his work daw. Yan Bie and Siao Jien are sisters and they just moved here in Georgia 2 days ago. Anyways, they were my new friends and kapitbahays so it's really fun. I wish Kim Hye will stay here longer (haha..silly..)

    After my encounter with the Koreans, I headed back home coz I'm tired na. I've seen Grace, who was about to pull out her car. She asked me if I want to hitch and I say yes. She let me drove her Chevrolet car. ang guess what? i almost hit two squirrels on the road! oh no..I don't want to pay 2000 dollars (1000 dollars per squirrel) if I accidentally hit them. Thank goodness, they were safe naman.

    At 3:00 pm, I went to St. Philip Benizi Catholic School to teach the kids. I've seen Fr. Lucas and I greeted him. "What's wrong Joan? you look sad today.", he said. Yes I'm sad..I miss everything in the Philipines and I want to go back there. Fr. Lucas give me some advice to help me overcome my 'homesick' feeling.

    "Think of a worst thing that happened to you when you were in the Philippines. (When I was being holdapped inside the FX on my way home. It happened July 2006). Do you want to experienced that again? (ofcourse not..). If you doesn't want that to happen again, then erase that memories and everything that connects you with it (I think he wants me to forget everything bad in the Philippines but I can't. There's a lot of good memories I had in the Philippines and I'll treasure all of that for the rest of my life). Well said but aren't you excited about the things that might happen to you here? try to look forward on the good memories that might happen. Try to build a new world very similar to the Philippines. Make friends with everyone. Pretend that you don't have any other world other than here. Remember that everything's changing and you have to change with it."

    I think Fr. Lucas is right. I guess I really have to adjust myself here. I want to stay here 10 years from now. I will have a good job. I'll meet the love of my life and start my own family here. America is an ideal place to live if you have family coz you feel safe and secured here. but wait.. that's 10 years from now, ok? i'm not in a hurry to have my own family. I'm too young pa..

    that's all for now..i'm sleepy na..

    SMILE...you're with me!
