Art of letting go. :)

POSTED ON: Saturday, October 9, 2010 @ 1:00 PM | 0 comments

There is always a little truth behind every 'just kidding', a little knowledge behind every 'I don't know', a little emotion behind every 'I don't care', and a little pain behind every 'It's okay'.

I have witnessed so-called perfect relationships that became disastrous in the end. I have seen most of my girl friends weep and curse as if there's no tomorrow. So with that, I decided to create this blog post to ease the pain of these beautiful ladies even for a while. :) Btw, ALL WORDS ARE THE PRODUCT OF MY IMAGINATIVE MIND.

#1 Why are you crying?
-Tell me, do you think he'll come back if you'll cry day by day? Will it make everything better? I PERSONALLY THINK IT WON'T SOLVE ANYTHING. Yes, it's okay to cry but doing it everyday ain't advisable.

#2 It's okay
-Believe me, true friends are the ones who can conclude that something is actually wrong just by looking at your eyes. You always pull the IT'S OKAY line. So prolly it won't work anymore.

#3 Cut the connections
-If you really want to forget about him, looking constantly at his facebook wall and stalking him doesn't sound well. CUT THE CONNECTIONS, how can you move on if you would go emotional once you see him posting messages on wall's of other girls? Well, you know what I mean.

#4 Looking good is feeling good
-STOP COMPARING YOURSELF WITH OTHER GIRLS. You have your strengths & weaknesses. Go to the salon, have fun, SHOP and most of all always remember that you are BEAUTIFUL and it's TRUE. :)

#5 Family and friends are shoulders to lean on
-What are your relatives for? Your friends? They are the persons who understand you the most. If you can't take it anymore then go rant and I tell you-- THEY'LL LISTEN. :)

The art of letting go is difficult, it takes TIME. Now, you have to remember that getting your heart broken doesn't mean that it is the end of the world, that is something NORMAL. Not everyone we know may stay forever, keep in mind that NOTHING is permanent in this world. Sometimes, He also sends persons to teach us LESSONS we can use in life, to make us STRONGER and WISER. Crying nor drinking is not a solution. If your gonna MESS UP YOUR LIFE just because of the break-up then go on-- DRINK, SMOKE, DON'T GO TO SCHOOL, CUT CLASSES, DISREGARD YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS in the end, who'll end up as the LOSER? :) Try to take everything one step at a time, letting go is not easy but it is POSSIBLE if you really like that to happen afterall, life is full of surprises. Last but not the least, SMILE looking good is feeling good right? :) For whatever is happening in your life, don't preoccupy yourself with the question "WHY?" but rather, ponder more on WHERE these events bring you. God is leading you to somewhere beautiful beyond the harsh realties of life-- ONCE YOU GET TO WHERE GOD WANTS YOU TO BE, THEN YOU'LL KNOW WHY. Let's not grip on things, He has the perfect time for everything & He makes the wisest moves, be patient because His decisions are always the best. ♥

Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall. ♥

I just got the best friends here on Earth. I realized that I am VERY lucky, 'cos you guys would always be there in times of need, especially if I have problems. Forgive me if I do not open that much anymore I just hate the endless questions. Thank you for accepting me wholeheartedly, even if I act irrational and freaky at times. When I suddenly became an omnivore, you didn't scold me-- YOU LAUGHED and that's one sign of being a true friend, it's when one is acting crazy but then you don't think he-slash-she is stupid. :) When I got your food for lunch, when I talk though my mouth is full, when I hug and spank for no definite reason. You even see the pain in my eyes even though I'm smiling. If at times, I utter awful and harsh words sorry... I think you know me well, I make mistakes most of the time and I know you guys correct and accept ME. And to tell you the truth, I don't know where I would be now if I didn't have YOU. :) You made my world upside-down, and you made me a BETTER PERSON. Winter, Spring, Summer, or Fall right? Kesha's song, I LOVE YA'LL. ♥

A true friend walks beside you, rain or shine. :)

March 27, 2010. E-games R2D4 event and Bandmaster launching at SM North Edsa.

Well, life is really full of surprises. And NEVER did I know that I would gain a friend on that said event. :> Raph was actually talking to someone when I realized that I had met him before. Well, being friendly-- I quickly called him and we talked about random stuffs.

I actually didn't expect that we would become friends I mean he's a Band Master Correspondent I thought he's the serious-type?. He's from the O2Jam community and I'm just a normal Audista. Plus, the age-- I really thought that he doesn't want to be bugged by uhh, KIDS? LOL. More of, after the casual talk then back to normal lives Haha! So after the event, and as the months passed by we still talked to each other and if I got PROBLEMS then he would there to listen and I really appreciate that 'cos most of the time, I try my best not to show emotions to my friends for there will be endless questions. Well, unlike him he would simply let me talk & he listens. He'll walk beside you, RAIN OR SHINE.

Maybe there are also many factors why we became close friends. He's crazy at times and would tell jokes e, I laugh easily right? Aside from that I also found many interesting stuffs 'bout him like, he isn't good in Taglog. Would you believe, HE ONLY LEARNED THE MEANING OF TAKURI LAST YEAR?! It's KETTLE in English Raph, KETTLE! He also doesn't eat BALOT and it's really freaky haha! Or maybe I ain't used to 'cos eating Balot is already in my system lol. He is also good-looking, eww loljk., better term-- HE LOOKS LIKE A HUMAN. Haha! And the weirdest part of all? I can't believe that for a guy, HE IS HYGENIC. He uses, sanitizer before he eats something *faints, I have never done that in my 14 years of existence. SRSLY. Now that's what I call UNIQUE. The best part about him is he doesn't know how to pretend. Sort of, what you see is what you get-- IF HE IS ACTING CRAZY AND GOOFED UP THEN HE REALLY IS LIKE THAT. No pretensions, THAT'S HIM. :) And oh, he also loves making other persons happy. :>

Well? What else? I guess I've said too much. :> Hey twin *yes, we call each other twin. I SELDOM do this. Your so good at making requests 'no? FUDGE haha! You are blessed by the Above, do not CHANGE. You've achieved so much already but DO KEEP YOUR FEET ON THE GROUND. And no matter what happens, well I know you know this already but just to remind you-- I'll always be here. K? >:D< Thanks for always being there ♥

P.S I'LL MAKE YOU EAT BALOT, SOMEDAY. AND OH, SORRY FOR THE CRAPPY PICTURE. >:3 YOU LOOK SILLY THERE. LOL.

If you just realized what I just realized.

"And if I fall, I never fail. I just get up and try again" -- Win by Brian Mcknight



January 2010 I told myself that if I lose the competition for Ms. SNNS 2010 I will not join beauty pageants anymore. I don't want to feel nervous, it's too much to handle and besides, I don't want to be pressured. I LOST but, I was very happy 'cos I could revert back to my normal life. Little did I know, God was actually preparing me for something BIG. I was busy playing Audition on the 19th of July, that night there was a B.E.C mass held in our house and most of B.E.C 19's officer were here and they were all teasing me- they want me to represent B.E.C 19 for the yearly beauty pageant Ms. Shrine of Our Lady of Mercy inline with the 154th shrine fiesta. I would just laugh and say whatever your decision is, it would be okay. In the end, they told me that I would really be the one. I felt happy at first but, at the back of my mind I was having doubts. I wasn't sure of myself anymore, I just lost last January what if it happened again? But I decided to give in. My decision was already final. I would do this not for myself but for God.

By July we were already practicing, most of my Sundays were occupied. I became very busy to the point that I would get very exhausted. But I can see that everyone expected something from me, THEY BELIEVED THAT I CAN DO IT. And so, I tried my best to enjoy. As the days past by I was becoming nervous again. I started pondering, "What if I can't....". Everyone at home told me not to worry that much because they know that I can handle it very well. The Pre-pageant happened last September 17. We, the seven candidates presented an intermission number and it was also the Talent Nite. I did Tambourine Dancing. I am a member of El Shaddai's Dancing Ministry, I know that all of the things that I did that night-- I offered it all to Him. :) By the end of the night, I got the Best in Talent as well as Ms. Friendship



5 days later, September 22-- CORONATION NITE. I became uneasy, my papa called he told me that "You will be crowned Ms. SOLM this night, I requested that from Mama Mary. I want to cry because I miss him very much but decided not to because the make-up will scatter lol. It was the night we've all been waiting for, aside from the coronation the question and answer portion as well as evening gown competition will also be held that night. My gown was made by ate Jeanie Balingit. Good thing I did not get confused and I remembered everything to be done on stage. After the evening gown competition, the most crucial part of the pageant, QUESTION AND ANSWER. We were asked to pick numbers, when it was my turn I picked out Number 2 and it was Councilor Alfred Vargas who asked me this question "Paano mo maipapakita ang pagmamahal mo kay Inang Maria?" My heart pound, I did not know if I can answer but the moment he finished I answered "Magandang gabi po sainyong lahat *smiles*. Paano ko nga ba maipapakita ang pagmamahal ko kay Inang Maria? Simple lamang po. Ang pagsunod sa sampung utos ng Panginoon, ang pagsisimba tuwing Linggo at ang pagiging mabuting ehemplo sa kabataan. Yun lamang po at maraming salamat. That moment I finished everybody shouted and clapped, my fears where eliminated and I thanked Him for guiding me. More intermission numbers were given, my schoolmates also gave one great intermission number. We were also serenaded by Fr. Leo.



When it was time to announce the winners, I was very nervous. I got the 2 minor awards, Best in gown and Ms. Friendship. The 2nd runner up and the 1st runner up was already called and yet, I had not been called yet.... Our Ms. Shrine of Our Lady of Mercy 2010 is no other than Candidate no. 4 Altamira Chantrelle M. Reyes
from B.E.C 19! I was actually shocked and I cried that time, maybe because of happiness? Everybody's actually asking me why did I cry? Well, after the problems that I faced, the times I have lost, when others tried to pull me down GOD STILL KEPT ME AT THE TOP. He prepared me for this. And he gave me for something worth waiting and fighting for. Something I did not expect. Something for ME. :')



The ending was so beautiful. Everybody was so happy for me, my mama beamed and told me "I told you, you did it! actually, I am very happy because my mama would always be there for me during pageants. She was actually the one helping me dress up. My relatives, cousins, classmates, SYM, friends, teachers, and schoolmates were also very happy because of what I achieved. Finally, I got the CROWN, SCEPTER AND THE TITLE MS. SHRINE OF OUR LADY OF MERCY 2010.





I also heard about other persons who would tell nasty rumors about me. How ironic, most of them are from the church lol. They kept telling everyone that I cheated. NO, what I did is I believed that I can do it. I gave my best shot, I never let a ray of doubt slip in and the best of all? I entrusted EVERYTHING to HIM. Good thing I got a great God a great family and great friends who would always be there for me when others want to PULL ME DOWN. The sad thing is, bohoo to the losers-- IF YOU REALLY ARE SERVING GOD DO IT NOT ONLY IN WORDS BUT ALSO IN ACTIONS HYPOCRITES. YOU CANNOT PULL ME DOWN AND I WILL NEVER QUIT. Stop acting like kids, ACT YOUR AGE. :)








To everyone who supported and believed, thank you very much. :) God really prepared me for this, all the hardships and problems before were hidden blessings. May He touch your lives and bless you the way he touched mine, always remember to offer EVERYTHING to him, He is the best director. Do remember that He wants the best for all of us. :)







P.S May this post inspire all of you not to quit. You fall 7 times, stand up 8 times! And whatever happens, BELIEVE IN YOURSELF.

PP.S Thank you to Ms. Carmina Gonzales for the hair and make-up, and Ms. Jeanie Balingit for the gown. To B.E.C 12, 19, 27, 29, and ElShaddai. To everyone who believed in me. Thank you very much!





-MS. SHRINE OF OUR LADY OF MERCY 2010 ♥
