Choosing a new lipstick with my best girlfriends can be quite an adventure... 😅😳 Every color I picked is either nude, pinkish, orange-ish red or brown but they keep on saying: "Bagay sa iyo!" and "Bet ko yung kulay!" but there's always a "Parang hindi ikaw, Clare!" or a "Ang bait mong tignan!" Until I came upon this! A dark violet-red shade that fits and quite frankly, describe my personality. ☺️ Sige na, ako na si Elsa! A strong, independent woman who don't need a man to fight her battles! Char! 😳😁😳 #happyskinph #elsamattelippie #rantingsofabeautifulmind #selflove

I hate that I hate you. I miss your friendship but I won’t be the one to text you first because you absolutely crushed me. And not that you crushed my heart, because I can honestly say you didn’t. Not in the way anyone else would think. You managed to take my trust, break it into a thousand tiny pieces and destroy our friendship. I’ve done a pretty good job of pretending I’m okay, at least by my standards. But anyone else can see that it’s fake. I miss our friendship. You were the guy I could count on to be there, no matter how far away you ended up. I could talk to you about anything and I knew you’d be there to give me the truth, no matter how much you knew I didn’t want to hear it but you knew I needed it. You told me I was stubborn, all the time and I know it’s true. But because it’s not you telling me, I don’t want to believe it. I miss our late night conversations. I miss you in general. But I get it, you’re off saving the world and I’m still here.
I got more paperwork from FDNY and you’re the first person I wanted to tell because you believed in me so much. But I knew I couldn’t because it would destroy everything I had worked so hard to stay away from you for. I want to hate you so much, but lately all I can do is miss you. Maybe because three days ago made a year that you left to go save the world and become a soldier and it coming up on my time hop and my memories on facebook doesn’t help my sadness on top of everything else you put me through.
I miss your company. I miss you bringing me back down to earth when I needed it. I just miss talking to you, bullshitting and talking about nothing. When I gave you the latest gossip of the county and you told me about what was going on in your platoon. I just miss our friendship. Maybe one day we can have that again, but right now it still hurts too much. Just know I miss you, friend. I hope I see you soon.
Charity Involvement
For some reason I’ve always been active with some charity work. I sent three kids to school and made them finish their studies too. I supported their family’s basic necessities for everyday. Though I am not living a grand lifestyle as Hollywood stars or privileged as those in the elite community, but I still manage to buy the things that I want or get myself more than the stuff that I need. I eat more than three times a day and others don’t eat anything at all. People tend to sponsor others who already have a little than those who don’t have anything at all. If I only have the power and the resources to fly to those country where people suffer from starvation and malnutrition, I’ll give them the treatment that they needed and supply them food that they always dream of munching on. I have a soft spot in my heart for those kids who long for a love of a family, who dreamed of going to school and striving for a brighter and better future for their own. I want to help those kids; those who never dare to give up with their dreams of being a “somebody” one day. I am very ambitious and I never get tired of dreaming.
When I was a kid I witnessed my parents sharing our blessing to others and from there I learned how to be selfless and be aware of other’s needs too. We might be blessed with material things but sometimes we are blessed with good people around that that will eventually help us one day. I want to be that kind of person, somebody that others would take as a form blessing to them by God. We meet people for a reason and we always play a role in someone else’s life. This year I want to learn how to document films, edit videos nicely, and take pictures like a pro. I wanted to make use of it to inspire others. I want to capture real emotions of different people in real time. I want to be inspiring unprivileged kids in my own silly little ways. I want to make people smile and laugh. I wanted to change other people’s lives and make a difference. I’ve learned in the past few months how the $1 can be just worth a child’s chocolate bar and how that same $1 could serve as a one whole meal to others. Life maybe crazy but it’s beautiful too. I’m sad that people manage to splurge on hundreds or thousands of bucks over things that could just meet ends with their temporary madness; just like going to concerts, and showering yourself with booze for a party. Heartbreaking? Yes, for a person with a big heart like me.
This year I want to involve myself with a serious charity movement. I wanted to go back to dancing and learn how to sing. And I want to teach those kids whatever there is for me to share draw, paint, dance, sing, read, write, or even talk English, if they asks for it. I’m going to do everything in my power just to make one charity even possible. A benefit concert maybe? So that they’ll experience what it feels like to perform on stage in front of many people? How about a pictorial or a video shoot, so that they know how it feels like to be a model for a day? A book and food gallery maybe to have their senses feast on something good? There are so many things that I wanted to do for them, the fact that there is so many ways to show it. This year? I wanted to so something great, and I can say that this is the best gift that I can give myself this year. Have you ever felt light by doing something good and you just can’t help yourself from smiling after that? I know my life too is not that perfect just like everybody else, but making that one brave step sure does make a difference and I can’t wait to make things happen for this year. I’ll be sharing this thought with my man, friends and family. Just wait for it. – S.R. (23)
