Fate and Goodbyes

College has gotten a little flimsy these days. It's a real distress not to be that freshman I was just a year ago. Those days when I looked forward to every school day, only to indulge in the freedom I never had back in high school. But now, I'm lacking reasons to blog about it, it has become a routine like everything else.

On the other hand, other pieces of my life have been quite tragic. Not exactly my life, but I feel involved. Unlike some families, ours is very intact. We're all joined at the hip. And so what one feels is certainly felt by the other (most of the time). I can't help but feel sorry for my favorite cousins (a.k.a. my numero uno BFFs) who are still devastated by the loss of their dad. It was startling like most deaths. We had to travel to Pampanga to pay a visit to their hometown last weekend. Although we only drained stories to tell and laughed throughout the night, I can see how they try to hide the pain. Sympathy is not a cure, and that's the only thing we could offer if they show their grief. Ate Hazel told me that, they were trying to cease the bursting of tears by joking around like their usual selves. We all felt lonely inside of course. On the second day, we ended up playing poker since we unbelievably ran out of stories. On normal days, we're natural blabbermouths (it runs in the family). Oh how I missed them! We barely see each other since we all went to college and entered different universities. We're all scattered in Manila, and apparently, some of us were a little busy. We never expected we'd see each other again at such a horrifying event :(


Too bad Ate Hazel was the one who took the picture.


Dad was our dealer, I won all the chips in three consecutive rounds (we were using piso as chips :))

If you noticed, I chopped my hair off. You are not deceived by your eyes, it is too short. Sometimes I miss being able to tie my hair up or style it in various ways. But anyway, this'll do for now. I feel comfortable with it. Maybe next year I could have my dream hairdo. Long brown hair with lovely curls down the back. \m/

P.S. (out of topic) I haven't watched Transformers 2 yet. Although everybody's saying it's worth watching, I feel lazy. Ang loser ko! But if ever I change my mind and realize Megan Fox is worth getting my butt off the chair (which is a hundred point one percent true but since I'm lazy, the fact would not dawn on me enough to sink into my brain), then I might as well watch and catch that scene when she was on a motorcycle driving like she's the hottest creation ever (which is true once again, c'mon! even girls drool for her! RIGHT?)
