Moving On

I'll be on a very short blog. There's too many things I want to write but I can't find time and energy to do it. Maybe because I'm not that inspired and I'm still depress for not having a solid plan for myself. I hate to say this... you'll see less of me for the days to come for I am gonna devote my spare time trying to make something big. I am up to something bigger in terms of expressing myself.

As of the moment, I cannot say that I am on the right track. For i really don't know what's really in store for me in the future. Having no job and idle for months now. It is normal that depression visits me once in awhile. I am now open about accepting that not all the decisions I made whether for my career or personal is right. Now I can talk about trying to win over depression and defeat. A good sign of moving on, soon enough it'll be okay. I am starting to go back to the track and willing to start again from the scratch.

I failed, somehow I am still depressed, helpless, erratic, selfish and alone. I was tested and continuously being tested. I am trying to cope and I am trying to stand up again little by little. I know every morning that I wake up with conviction I can tell myself that I can handle everything and face the challenges of life.

I realized that not getting what I aspire for won't make me a lesser person. I am still gonna continue to learn, to do what I am good at and share what I know from this day and everyday of my life.

Independence Day

Last night everyone is busy in the house, packing things, entertaining guest because two of my friends and housemates, Luft and Nica will going to take their vacation in the Philippines the next day. March 19 is the official date of the flight at around 10:30 am via Emirates Airlines. My two friends were excited and yet lonely because they're 

gonna left their honeys, Kim and Syed in Dubai. I really felt the sadness of the girls because they are going to separate for a while with their loveones. Thinking they will miss the happy times the couples shared together, the laughter and tears, the small fights and the sweet moments they shared in one roof. Indeed, it's difficult saying goodbyes.

I witnessed how Kim and Luft shed their tears before they parted ways at the airport. It's funny seeing them in tears but its heartwarming. As you see in the picture, Kim wiping his tears. Luft is hiding and don't want to be caught by the camera in tears.

Let's check out the guys after they brought the girls to the airport. Hmmm yes they were both lonely too??? It really shows on their face??? When they reached the house, you can see them rejoicing and celebrating and marking MARCH 19 as their INDEPENDENCE DAY....A KFC treat also provided.

Its funny because i know at the back of their mind, they just doing this celebration to cover up their loneliness inside...

It's cool and amazing waiting for service bus going to work with bunch of friends ready to strike a pose in a glimpse. This is not a routine but every time a camera flashes everyone is ready to smile. How can you take a stolen shot? For this guys and gals it's not possible. Everyone is suffering from SPS meaning Strike a Pose Syndrome.

Be aware but not to worry of SPS because though it is contagious but it's fun. Just keep on enjoying every flash and retain your smile.
