Of ruptured Tendons and life lessons
It has been a whole month since I have had my foot surgery. It's funny, I thought the only surgery I would ever have to do in the future is a boob job, and yet, here we are. (All because of some freak accident I got myself into while attempting to make pancakes in the kitchen.) Yup, definitely not wifey material -- so why do I even bother? lol.
It has not been easy. Aside from the physical pain, I had to go through a whole lot of roller coaster emotions. Being stuck at home, or being stuck sitting on a couch rather, makes you slowly lose your sanity. You start feeling like complete shit, you start feeling helpless and the worst part, you feel useless. Oh and let's not forget feeling left out. You see your friends and even your boyfriend having a grand time, enjoying without you, which makes you feel even shittier.
You start getting sweet messages from all sorts of people who want to check up on you, and get mixed emotions of gratitude and sadness, because it's not from the people who you expected it to be from. And it sucks knowing that if the tables were turned, I would go ALL OUT to make sure that they never feel alone. That they feel loved and that I am literally just a phone call away.
I had to snap myself out of it several times. I constantly had to remind myself that this was temporary, that “This too shall pass”. And as I started feeling a tad bit more positive, I started seeing the good in all this. For instance, I started noticing how attentive Sebastian has been.
I remember looking at Sebastian all teary eyed after he struggled to wash my hair, making sure my cast doesn't get wet. How he constantly made me tea. How he would carry pillows to the bedroom every night just to make sure my foot stays elevated. How he literally became my human alarm clock, always reminding me to take my medicine -- The little things. <3
I realized I spent so much of my time and energy bitching about this ruptured tendon without realizing that this ruptured tendon has gifted me with a few life lessons and a calm I didn't think I needed.
This circumstance has forced me to reevaluate my life and the people in it. I am not going to go into details, but I have learned a couple of complicated lessons, and I am guilty of casting a few judgments.
But as best as I can tell, humans are still capable of remarkable generosity and empathy, even if the outpouring love doesn't come from whom we ask. And I think that's great. I think that is reason enough to stretch our heart towards forgiveness and continue to see the good in life.
LITTLE THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY
Fairy lights
I always feel a sense of magic with every fairy lights I silently stare at. Public parks and restaurants are doing a great job by installing these lights. It works!
KATSUDON and dogs
I was never a dog person. Until we had to adopt a dog last 2018 who happened to change my life forever. After four lovely months, she left. Since then, I vowed to love every dog. My dad gifted me a golden retriever a week after and now, she’s my life.
BABIES!
In every family reunion, you could literally see me playing with all the kids. I’m a full-time yaya. Always.
BROOKLYN NOINE NOINE
I need not to explain how 99 is the perfect series. Hilariously funny with intelligent but witty content.
Favorite cast: Amy Santiago!
HARRY POTTER
This childhood favorite will always be gold. I remember spending the whole summer of 2018 just reading every book and rewatching every movie after. That pretty much explains my URL and Header as well. Favorite Cast: Luna Lovegood!
Theaters and Theatre
Theater Spaces and Theatre Stuff. Broadways. Musical. NYC Dreams. I’ll take and keep that!
Waitress Songs
This musical has the most moving and empowering songs I’d love to listen countless of times Ultimate Favorite: She Used To Be Mine & When He Sees Me!
Animal Prints
I had a period of my college life where I own everything cheetah! From blouse to skirt down to my shoes and undergarments! Although that period has long faded, randomly buying leopard prints still amuse me. It honestly feels like matching the energy I am wearing.
Coffee & Vanilla scents
My nose is weird... and powerful. The only soothing smell that calms me is anything coffee and vanilla. I wear this scent to work/school everyday and make sure to carry the same confidence it entails.
PS. Good-smelling guys attract me so much!
P A N C A K E S
One food that would certainly make me do the happy dance. I love pancakes way so much.
MAKE-UPS
Last year, I literally didn’t watch anything in youtube but make-up vlogs. There, I learned how to do it myself!
Ramen and California Maki
No explanation needed.
Potato Corner BBQ | chicken WINGZ | pizza | ice cream | donuts | chicken joy
Bangus Belly | LAING | baked tahong |PEPPER LUNCH Salad

ANY OUTFIT THAT MAKES ME FEEL SEXY AND CONFIDENT!!!
EXPERIENCES THAT BRING ME JOY & SATISFACTION:
S O L I T U D E
To be alone is a gift. Isolating myself to recharge and rethink about everything is one of my most favorite time of the week. I breathe fresh air and refill my weary mind through solitude. Nothing can do it better but my sole time.
Cooking new dishes for friends and fam
Exploring the kitchen makes me happy too. To cook and serve for my loved ones is an incomparable feeling.
WATCHING THEATRE SHOWS!!!
Let’s just put it this way. My life is 40% theatre and the 60% is everything else. That’s how theatre is that huge for me.
Lazy days with my parents
Literally doing nothing but enjoying each other’s company.
Good work-out
Confidence. And self-love.
Sincere dates and talks with my best friends SINGING SO LOUD Finishing a write-up Perfecting my make-up
CRYING out of so much love/inspiration
Hearing stories from the people i look up to
Sharing these inspirations to other people
Accomplishing checklists HEHE organizing my stuff and designing my work space going to church alone and praying serenely silently watching strangers in public exploring new skills myself drinking lots of water!!!! overcoming impossible situations empowering women!
