...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

    About two weeks ago, i have finished buying gifts for the names on my christmas list. But I was caught off-guard when unexpected people gave me gifts. My mom and i decided to make our new christmas list (names of people that were not on our original list) and my goodness..the list is pretty long considering that we already bought a lot of gifts! some family friends and acquaintances gave us gifts that we were not expecting so my mom and i felt the need to give them something in return.

    Saturday Rush

    Most of the people are buying last-minute gifts for their love-ones today. I hate going to the mall on these days that's why we bought gifts early this month. I want to avoid the commotion and stress of going to crowded malls but we don't have any choice. Anyway, we went early to the mall since most of them opened 4am. There's a lot of people there...i felt as if i'm in the Philippines - a scene that i'm no longer used to. Long lines..Limited parking space..crowded dressing room..crowded food court > such a mess! My mom and I picked stuff as fast as we can. We bought extra products so if someone (not on our revised list) gave us gifts, we have something to give in return.

    Despite of the chaos happening inside and outside the mall, the people still managed to be nice and calm. I can see the smile on people's faces as they picked up stuff to give to someone they love. I see pure joy on their eyes - Such a wonderful view to see. And the people still manage to maintain their manners..no matter how crowded the place is, i can still see guys and gals being "gentlemen" on every ways they can - like opening the doors for other people, giving way to disabled people, etc. People are waiting patiently on the long line, i never hear a single complain that came out of their mouth. So yeah...christmas shopping wasn't as stressful as I've expected. As for me and my mom, i guess we got all we needed and then some extras.

    conclusion:
    i spent money more than i should. I know christmas isn't about money and gifts, it's about this incredible feeling that i have everytime i see the smile on people's face. That, for me, is priceless. I want to give something that will remind my comrades of how they made my life real special. This year has been a rollercoaster ride for me and without those precious people, i wouldn't have made it. I know that there's still a lot of things that i should be thankful of, but i'll save it all for my New Year's post.

    Merry Christmas to all of you!
    Let's all rejoice for the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

    SMILE...you're with me!
