earth hour...

This year, I wasn't at home during the earth hour. Headed to pyramid earlier in the afternoon for a reunion plus belated celebration thingy. While hanging around, I remembered that it was THE day. That's all thanks to all the ads displaying proundly around the mall, silently shouting "EARTH HOUR".

We got curious about how pyramid would be like with the lights turned off, so we decided to stay until THE hour. Suddenly, a few crazy ideas came up like a plan of checking out the Guess stores to eye around for our favorite bags, heels, tops, and such before THE hour. Then, when THE hour comes with the lights off, we'll charge toward the store unseen and sweep away all the goodies we had our eyes on.

Unfortunate in a way, the plan went to waste when the hour that we've been waiting for finally came. To our disappointment the only lights that went off are the lights outside of the Pyramid while the inside remained the same.

Oh wells, at least we had a couple of laughs imagining our wild mission and enjoyed a couple of songs by the band playing outside during THE hour.

happy birthday to me...

Today's the day that added 1 to my 18. Other than that it was pretty much like any other day. Classes go on, assignment flowed in. Oh, did I mention I got my mid-term results today too? I guess I couldn't complain about it. It was just another simple day at college.

Surprisingly, my fb wall was flooded with wishes and I didn't mind thanking each and every single person. Although a wish seems small, simple, and don't cost a penny, it can bring up a smile. Don't eva underestimate it! I smiled quite a lot today.

Celebration was just a simple dinner with the family.

growing up...

When we were little, we looked forward to our next birthday and wished we could grow up faster, thinking about the bigger freedom we can possess. As we grow older, we wished time could go slower and slowly, we begin to start wishing not to grow older because we know that growing older means we will have to give up our childishness to take on responsibility and be more mature. We had to think before acting more and more. Sometimes, we just fear losing our youthfulness.

I know that I haven't reached an age to start complaining about getting older, but something in me felt that way. I craved for more freedom since young and I still do, but a certain fear of growing older started appearing. Since it started until now, I'm still debating with myself about its reasons. Maybe, it was because I was a little afraid of reaching an age which would cause me to stop thinking about doing stupid things like breaking some rules, acting like idiots with a couple of friends, having the ability to come up with wild things to do or maybe I just didn't like the idea of carrying bigger responsibilities. Have you ever seen an adult and thought to yourself that I don't ever want to grow up to be like him/her? Maybe it might be something like that.

Who knows what we would be like in 3, 5, 10 years? I guess I'll end with that thought for you to ponder on. Sweet dreams.

hidden in the shadow...

It started with exchanges of awkward "heys"...

everyday classes...

group work...

simple chats...

laughs.

Then one of 'em grew fondness...

unable to push the thoughts of the other away...

but tried to stay a close distance away...

to avoid the other from growing fond too...

because one know it would hurt much more...

if both grew fond of each other...

then having to part later...

because soon they will be more than half the world apart...

due to thier future plans.

one decided to keep the fondness hidden in the shadow...

so the other will never know or ever get hurt.
