~*Drops of Jupiter*~

Image
Now that she's back in the atmosphere With drops of Jupiter in her hair She acts like summer and walks like rain Reminds me that there's time to change Since the return from her stay on the moon She listens like spring and talks like June But tell me, did you sail across the sun? Did you make it to the Milky Way To see the lights all faded And that heaven is overrated? Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star? One without a permanent scar And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there? Now that she's back from that soul vacation Tracing her way through the constellation She's checked out Mozart while she does Tae Bo Reminds me that there's room to grow Now that she's back in the atmosphere I'm afraid that she might think of me as plain ol' Jane Told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly So he never did land But tell me, did the wind sweep you off your feet? Did you finally get the chance To dance along the light of day? And hea...

Stop, yes?

How do you disconnect from someone? Do you do it slowly or abruptly? I think this is the part where I need to keep my distance already. Because I'm starting to feel afraid now.

Weight

 I've been so down lately, too much emotions, I want to get them off my chest. It has always been a struggle to not being able to talk it out to people because messaging them doesn't feel enough. I want to cry so hard but I still think it's not enough. As much as I want to just shrug this feeling off but it keeps coming back. Lately, I noticed that a lot of my friends are also struggling with their own problems and I don't want to bother them, I don't want to add up to the weight that they carry everyday. Looking back, I used to get over things like this faster than I do now. I thought I was good at forgetting my battles or even my sadness. What has gotten into me?  But no worries, I'll be okay. I just need to express myself at least on this blog.

"Space Date"

Image
The first thing that popped in my head when I came across this retweeted photo on Twitter was like, yeah it would be great to date someone who wants to really explore the outer space, so I retweeted it. But after a few minutes, I checked this picture once again. Then I realized it's more than just the outer space, it's the actual "space" that a person uniquely possesses. (I'd like to use "personal space" but it's kind of a different thing to say.) I know from the bottom of my heart—and I insist—that each person has a beautiful soul, and each is uniquely different from one another. Some people don't know what's something special in them. But wouldn't it be nice to have someone who share the same curiosity about exploring each other's space? Whatever, I find it cute, and important, that's all. credits:  @HannahTempler

Joy Over Sorrow

Image
Sometimes it feels like it's been forever working online because it takes more or less 12hrs every day of facing the PC but I don't complain as much. Posting this so I can look back to this moment of bliss despite pandemic. And yes, I choose to be in joy rather than in sorrow. x

Blank

When someone leaves you hanging and you stare blankly into space, wondering why it feels so terrible being treated that way.

Stranger Who?

Image
Some people like making conversations. Small talks, long talks, whatever kind of talk. It's the fact that you get to know a person's perspective when you talk to them. Asking random things and such. You won't even care if you don't share anything about yourself, just as long as you're making a conversation with someone else, that's all. But then it's different when they also want to know about you. It's different when they are the ones asking you random stuff, and when they seem like they really want to know the reason behind the things you do and the reason for your decisions, your preferences—it's bizarre. Being the one who always asks, some people would think you're also the type to share a lot about yourself. The thing is, you may actually share a lot of things to people but only very few of them know what exactly you are thinking when you say or do things. That's why it's a little bit hard to compreh...

My Brother, Dominic

Couldn't remember I had this draft! Lol. I took these photos of my brother on his graduation back in 2014! -------------------- March 28, 2014

My failed attempt at posting this blog entry I was supposed to call "~New Chapter~"

(this was created last August 2019 and never had the time to finish it. But still, here it goes...) ... Hi! I'm back! Char. Well, hello you guys! How's everything going? I just thought it might brighten your day knowing that someone wants to check on you. I mean, we all want that, don't we? :) Anyway, I'm supposed to furnish my powerpoint presentation that I have to show to my boss tomorrow, but then I got tired (maybe because of walking for an hour from a mall to the hotel where I'm staying, he he), now I'm here! I just feel like writing an update about me because I want to read all of these in the future, and at the same time hoping to inspire people who are also going through the same situation as I do. So here it goes. I'd like to reshuffle the questions from my previous post and start with this one: What do I do rn? I'm actually doing a new job in a private company, after 7 months of working in a government agency which is DA...
