Good things come to those who wait

in E, happy thoughts
It has been a happy Christmas this 2011. I was able to spend time with people I love and I was pleasantly surprised to have received gifts at all! As I mentioned before, E and I exchanged gifts early and I didn’t expect he’d give me the watch I wanted. It’s incredibly sweet because he remembered that I liked it (I mentioned it only once months ago when we first saw it). Then friends and people from the office gave me gifts even though I don’t spend as much time there anymore. It’s so amazing to even be included in their list of recipients.
Plus, the gifts I received this year are amazing! I received stuff I’ve been thinking about buying but put off because of one reason or another. That’s why I’m doubly amused that I got them anyway. I now have the bag hook I’ve been looking for since last year (!) nice earphones, and cute robot mini speakers. Yay!
I keep all the Christmas tags. 
I’ve also spent Christmas evening with Eric at their home. We just had dinner and watched a movie, but the mere fact that we were together on Christmas was enough for me. I’m thankful that I get to spend time with him during special occasions such as this one. Then the following morning, we had brunch at (the newly-opened) Army Navy along Katipunan. We were the first customers and the speakers were blasting off Christmas renditions from She & Him.
E says hello.
Just the combination of being with one of your favorite people, eating your favorite food, and hearing good music from a great band was enough to make me happy. It trumps everything negative I’ve felt prior Christmas. I realized no one could ruin a good day for me if I have my friends and loved ones to always put a smile back on my face. You just have to be patient—because good things come to those who wait.
So, happy Christmas to everyone who made mine wonderful—family, friends, and E.

in love and cheesiness, random thoughts and crazy wonderings, sadness and everything along with it
It doesn’t mean that if you love someone, you’re going to be loved back in return. In life, more often than not (unless you’re lucky) you’re going to be dumped good and hard by the people you care about the most.
But I discovered that I can love someone even if he can’t (or won’t) love me back. Because after all the pain and hell I went through, I am surprised and proud of myself that I’m still capable of love.
It shows that even if a person undergoes tremendous sacrifices for the sake of love, love is even greater after the heartache than before it, because that’s the time when the person really appreciates the true meaning of love. And I think those people who have not experienced serious heartaches are the ones missing out on love, and all the lessons love can teach them. Not the other way around.
I’m not saying go out there and have your heart broken. I guess what I’m trying to point out is that people are weird, to the extent that the more they are hurt, the more they learn, and the more they want to still risk being hurt and learning.
And oh, I pondered over all of these while eating sopas this morning.

Rhian Ramos, go shit up a rope

Okay, I officially hate Showbiz and everything along with it. It’s not even because Rhian Ramos might’ve had her baby aborted. It’s that she’s making all the wrong statements to get people to pity her.
Yes, tramp, you were too young to have been involved with a 29-year old and everybody agrees that it might have been the stupidest thing for you to do. But so what, right? You fell in love. I can accept that. But bullshit, you had sex over and over and over and over again. That’s not a “stupid mistake”. You liked that. And then you probably got pregnant and realized at that point that, hey—having sex can result to other things. And then who knew honest-to-goodness what she really did, then? I don’t know either, but I hate her reaction to that video. It’s unbelievable.
I hate people pretending it’s all a mistake just because their Pandora’s Box has been opened and all their fuckadoodles have been exposed. Such a bunch of hypocrites, and Rhian Ramos is a big one.
I can’t take it. I hate hating her because I’m not supposed to care in the first place. But she’s so unbelievably brainless, even Pia Guanio is looking like Einstein right now. I won’t even talk about Mo Twister and his non-existent balls, because at least he’s honest that he doesn’t have any.
Ugh.

in E, love and cheesiness
Today is the 3rd. But I didn’t really realize what today is until E asked me on the MRT ride home. And besides, we don’t celebrate a “monthsary”. But yeah, today is the 3rd. And it just so happened that I decided to give his Christmas gift early this year. What I didn’t expect was that he would give his. And I cracked up when I saw his gift for me.
He gave me the Swatch Lady Double Tour that I was thinking of buying for myself (glad I didn’t). And it was yellow! Imagine how giddy I was.
I gave him a classic black watch with leather band from Zoo York. I think it’s really pretty. If there was a smaller version of this, I would’ve bought one for myself.
I find it really funny that we always give the same gifts. For our anniversary this year, we both gave each other necklaces. So yeah, we’re a walking cliché .
