Positivity IN, Negativity OUT!

Dear Girls,
belialhoxley:
Please maghanap naman kayo ng mga lalaking may pangarap sa buhay, hindi yung basta makapasa lang ok na. Dapat yung mga Man of Faith ang pinipili niyo kaysa mag-asawa ka na ubod ng kagwapuhan pero hanggang maging gwapo lang ang pangarap. Tatanda rin yan at kukulubot ang balat, mamamatay at uuorin ng mga parasites. Pumili ka ng may pangarap sa buhay, yung kaya kang buhayin dahil nakatapos ng may flying colors tapos may magandang trabaho.

Another Sunday
It’s my father’s birthday today! He’s 51 now. Upon waking up, I picked up my phone and made quite a lengthy composition which I sent him this afternoon. It was mostly full of thank yous and sorrys. Writing it made me so emotional that I was bawling my eyes out when my dormmate unexpectedly burst in from the front door. I tried to hold my emotions in but she caught tears welling up in my eyes anyway. It was too impossible to repress the emotions when they’re uncontrollably surging in.
Ate Janis was with her ate as she dropped by and collected her things. I managed to ask a few questions as I wiped the tears off my face. Our conversation was short. She stayed for only a short while. It was so quick that she left shortly after about 10 minutes of rummaging through her stuff. Ate Janis stays in a dorm with Ate Harhar (Harlene’s the real name) in Quezon City now. They cross-registered and they’re taking their summer classes in UP Diliman this year.
Man, I miss them both. The dorm’s not quite complete without them, esp the without the latter. She’s the noisemaker, makulit one. Ate Janis, on the other hand, is the admirable-demure gal who reads The Daily Bread everyday. She’s known here for her kindness that surpasses any kindness any one of us have ever known. She never grunts about anything unpleasant. If she does, she keeps it mild that it’s almost similar to a little 5 year old sulking. There’s this one time when they’re about to leave for an exam when Ate Har suddenly related a bad news (can’t remember what). I guess it was so bad that Ate Janis uttered “Ano ba yan!!”
It was the first time we heard her say anything like that! It was a shock! It wasn’t even a curse word or any vulgar language, but it left Ate Har and I speechless for a moment and laughing our lungs off the next. It was how we knew, how we know, and will always know Ate Janis, the “di-makabasag-pinggang-sagad-sa-kabaitang-baby-face na babae”.
So I was enjoying writing about my dormmates that I just noticed I am already off-topic. Well, my Sunday continued just fine. I went to church as usual, a routine I keep every Thursdays and Sundays. Then, I had to eat out since Nanay went to Bulacan for the weekend with LA. Without her around, I had to eat outside. I can’t rely on myself, I don’t think I could pull off cooking a decent meal well. So I dined at this Japanese resto in Robinson’s and stuffed myself with California Maki, mixed sea food and tofu. They come in a bento that it reminded me of my Japanese-craze days. As I stepped out of the resto, an ice cream stall caught my attention. It was a stall which sells ice cream from New-Zealand. Their sell price was quite steep, but since they let me have a free taste of 5 different ice cream flavors, I bought a scoop. They had these yogurt ice creams and 99%-fat-fee sorbets which the seller claimed to be made from non-dairy products. In the end, I picked the coffee-flavored ice cream (reminds me of my bestfriend Nicole, since it’s her fave flavor, too!). Since it was night when I got out of the mall, I rode a pedicab as I went home.
So that’s pretty much how my Sunday went. My clock reads 10:17 now. Think that means I must hit the sheets, I’ll be sitting in a 9-am class pa tomorrow.
So yeah. Good night! :)

Detox Detox Din!
Just got through yet another Organic Chem exam! As usual, mahirap pa din. Takte lang. Didn’t pass the first test, and well, I don’t expect to pass this, either.
Pagkalabas ng exam room, tipun-tipon agad ang barkada, nagpalitan ng tingin, at tawa na lang sabay buntong hininga. “Wtf was that?” yun na lang ang maiisip mo. You’ll just get used to it, yknow. The feeling of failure. There’s no use whining about it, college won’t get any easier as you move up anyway. Pahirap na lang yan ng pahirap. I’m pretty sure na lahat ng nagdaraan sa kolehiyo, makakarelate.
Unfortunately, it seemed we haven’t gotten ourselves used to constant failures. We were down. But we didn’t let the exam rule the conversations. We knew better than talk about the test, but the somber aura was readily felt nonetheless. It was so palpable. It was as though we were breathing out the despair.
At that instant, we knew the perfect place to head to — Robinson’s Manila. It’s our never failing refuge. Buti na lang talaga may kapit-bahay kaming mall. It’s only a few steps away from the campus. Guess that’s enough of a hint for my growing figure lol.
DETOXIFICATION. It was a must! And of course, the first step will always be to eat! Food is definitely the most effective stress reliever. Unfortunately, it comes with unfavorable side effects. Pero syemps, at that moment, there was nothing that could’ve possibly stopped us from pigging out! Not even the thought of me looking like suman in my tee’s. Not even the lack of funds! Haha! So yun, we headed straight to that much-talked-about Korean ice cream stall and got ourselves each a fish-shaped ice cream (except for Patmae who had already tried it). It was okay. There’s nothing quite bizarre about it except for it being figured a fish.
Next stop was Greenwich. I remembered a meal prepared by Nanay (LA’s grandma) was waiting for me back in our dorm so I ordered a light, 59-peso meal. Dining with friends, recounting random stories, sharing a hearty laughter… It was the most detoxifying part of the afternoon. I must agree with the quote “a time spent with friends is a time well-spent.”
Before we finally went our separate ways, we passed by National Bookstore, checked out some magazines and drooled over hot guys printed all over the mag covers.
Overall, the day was great. If we could play odd-man-out, then the exam would definitely be the odd one from today’s happenings. I guess the day will be even greater ‘cause I’ll start reading a new book tonight! Title of the book is Chinese Cinderella. Hope it’s a good
read. Okay, I have said enough for today’s post. With that, I say good night! :)

about me
-----------------------------------------------------------
Jumela Mica Bautista. more commonly known as "Meme" 16 years young. Doha, Qatar.
And so here's my story..
I'm a being with different sides & different personalities; a being with contrasting beliefs; a being with a mind so fickle that I find myself constantly changing decisions.
I'm a slacker. Procrastination is my thing. Needless to say, laziness is the biggest enemy i always get defeated to. I'm timid & soft-spoken at times. Silence brings peace. Thus my motto, "Less talk, less problems." Explains why I don't engross myself too much in gossips and random chatters that involve people.
Despite this, and on the contrary, I can be wild and carefree. I may have the loudest laugh across the room and you may find me babbling about the most random stories on earth.
To sum it up, I'm plain unpredictable. I'm multi-dimensional; I'm random :)) My mood says who I am today and who I am gonna be tomorrow. Well, one thing's for sure-- I'll always be the fun-loving, young-at-heart Jumela you've come to know-- that I guarantee ;)
Last paragraph about me: I like to keep things simple. And private. Oh, another thing-- I don't want my life being feasted upon by strangers.
Whatever's on tumblr, stays on tumblr, ol rayt? ;)
Much lovee <33
