It’s that time of the year again where my friends put stress away by going to amusement parks and this year, 16 of us went to Star City right after our Christmas Party! They decided to ride Star Frisbee first and when I found out it was that ride in the 4th frame I was like wot r u srs? Alyn and I ended up talking Physics like “Ay tignan mo nakakabuo ng trajectory oh! Malakas momentum nyan moment of inertia mga ganun"  to get rid of the nervous vibes settling on us but it was no use because gah! It was so intense I couldn’t stop screaming for my life that I had to shut up because I felt my jaw about to detach :-(

Star Flyer wasn’t scary at all it was super bitin! Star City’s Viking caused my friends to puke but unlike EK’s Anchor’s Away, I was able to raise my hands (woo achievement!) albeit I felt really dizzy! Surf Dance was really really fun but I didn’t dare remove my hands on the railing lol my friend kept budging my hand tho but I was like ”Ayoko! Ayoko!“ because abby x railing indi matitibag lmao

I cried twice. First, because I ate spoiled barbecue. It was my first time to be deluded! And into something that might risk my health. Micah ate the food and she was suspicious because there was an after taste and all my friends smelled it and they were all telling it was botcha!! I didn’t want to return the food because I was shy so Micah and Gia returned our (Alyn and I’s) food and came back with a new one. Gia told us that Micah was furious at the crew that she made them smell the bbq and asked for the manager for replacement. I cried so hard when I found out about it because Micah? Micah who is such a clown and all good vibes rolled her eyes at the crew for us? I was so touched I ended up crying while eating the replacement but I didn’t have the appetite anymore. My faith in humanity was broken and restored at the same time.

I also cried while inside the Ferris Wheel. I don’t know if I have fear of heights I really don’t I’ve been questioning it since we went to EK last year but when the ride slowly moved higher I just started having ragged breaths and found myself crying. My friends were all laughing, standing up and trying to budge the door at first because I was being so peculiar but I just couldn’t stop the tears and shakiness. I felt so dumb! I was only up there 8 minutes but it felt like an hour. This must be how the simulation in Dauntless feels. Four, I feel you very much. It was torturous.

1. Student Council campaigns brought a lot of lessons! One should never settle for mediocre, always for the best. Failure is an experience, learn from it. 

2. It was National Dog Day yesterday and well, one of our dogs should have been named “Grey” because of his eyes instead of Baby Bambi Boy because my mom couldn’t think of a better name so she just added baby and boy to the name of our other dog. Lmao.

3. It is actually quite scary that -ber months are about to arrive (3 more days omegahd) and then another 3 months before I graduate from high school and go to college! I clearly remember whining how I want to work already because I am so tired of doing the same thing but then woah wait! Time …slow down, will ya? 

4. I often judge a book by its cover. I really did not like how Jude Deveraux’s Remembrance looked because it looks so old (well, the book is old) and the enthusiasm of reading it faded away because of school but when I found the time to really read it, I couldn’t stop myself craving to know what happens next! This is one unforgettable read, and it is really true that the books we often neglect are the ones who are actually worth our time. 

5. K-12 is exhausting. I am under the basic education curriculum but some of my subjects are using K-12 and I’m a graduating student so yay for my health! K-12 gives a lot of activities to students like video shooting (like in every subject) and istg one activity isn’t finished yet and they’ll give 5 more activities ugh [sings] why you gotta be so rude? Don’t you know I’m human too?

6. Quote Of The Year: This too, shall pass.

For where your treasure is.

School has invaded my life but thank goodness I found the time to blog! We had to make a scrapbook of our greatest treasures for English so I put out 5 things which I consider my precious stones in life.

image

EXO // My happy pills, these boys. I’m a multifandom but not since this boy band debuted. After that? I couldn’t bring myself to stan other groups. Reality has woken me up but when I get old and move on from kpop I know I won’t regret that I spent almost all my teenage years wasting my time on them.

image

Books // Who would’ve thought I could travel the world (and even the other dimension) without moving my feet? I get to escape reality but at the same time I get to learn how it is to walk in other people’s shoes. “She reads books as one would breathe air to fill up and live." 

image

Friends // These are the people who are with me through this one helluva ride of life. They are the reason why my stomach aches because of too much joy and laughter. Despite having diverse personalities we seem to find our common ground.

image

Family // Ohana means family, and family means no one gets left behind. They are my first teachers who taught me that I need not to be afraid of stepping out and live, who told me Bible stories and force me to go to kids’ church, who let me do my own thing and when i fail, they tell me it’s okay, who taught me to be independent and know what is right from wrong. 

And last but definitely at most,

image

My relationship with God // I learned in our Values class that according to Ecclesiastes, life is meaningless–our labor, wisdom, pleasures, wealth, youth and vigor are all meaningless if we do not have God in our life. I know that it is true because once we reach the top, that’s it. The happiness doesn’t last forever because one day we are all going to die and we can’t bring all the success and material things we have attained in life in heaven. 

*I give full credits to the owners of some of the pictures I printed and I swear I didn’t use them for commercial purposes.
