I fell in love with this band. <3

How To Tell If Somebody Loves You: Somebody loves you if they pick an eyelash off of your face or wet a napkin and apply it to your dirty skin. You didn’t ask for these things, but this person went ahead and did it anyway. They don’t want to see you looking like a fool with eyelashes and crumbs on your face. They notice these things. They really look at you and are the first to notice if something is amiss with your beautiful visage! Somebody loves you if they assume the role of caretaker when you’re sick. Unsure if someone really gives a shit about you? Fake a case of food poisoning and text them being like, “Oh, my God, so sick. Need water.” Depending on their response, you’ll know whether or not they REALLY love you. “That’s terrible. Feel better!” earns you a stay in friendship jail; “Do you need anything? I can come over and bring you get well remedies!” gets you a cozy friendship suite. It’s easy to care about someone when they don’t need you. It’s easy to love them when they’re healthy and don’t ask you for anything beyond change for the parking meter. Being sick is different. Being sick means asking someone to hold your hair back when you vomit. Either love me with vomit in my hair or don’t love me at all. Somebody loves you if they call you out on your bullshit. They’re not passive, they don’t just let you get away with murder. They know you well enough and care about you enough to ask you to chill out, to bust your balls, to tell you to stop. They aren’t passive observers in your life, they are in the trenches. They have an opinion about your decisions and the things you say and do. They want to be a part of it; they want to be a part of you. Somebody loves you if they don’t mind the quiet. They don’t mind running errands with you or cleaning your apartment while blasting some annoying music. There’s no pressure, no need to fill the silences. You know how with some of your friends there needs to be some sort of activity for you to hang out? You don’t feel comfortable just shooting the shit and watching bad reality TV with them. You need something that will keep the both of you busy to ensure there won’t be a void. That’s not love. That’s “Hey, babe! I like you okay. Do you wanna grab lunch? I think we have enough to talk about to fill two hours!” It’s a damn dream when you find someone you can do nothing with. Whether you’re skydiving together or sitting at home and doing different things, it’s always comfortable. That is fucking love. Somebody loves you if they want you to be happy, even if that involves something that doesn’t benefit them. They realize the things you need to do in order to be content and come to terms with the fact that it might not include them. Never underestimate the gift of understanding. When there are so many people who are selfish and equate relationships as something that only must make them happy, having someone around who can take their needs out of any given situation if they need to. Somebody loves you if they can order you food without having to be told what you want. Somebody loves you if they rub your back at any given moment. Somebody loves you if they give you oral sex without expecting anything back. Somebody loves you if they don’t care about your job or how much money you make. It’s a relationship where no one is selling something to the other. No one is the prostitute. Somebody loves you if they’ll watch a movie starring Kate Hudson because you really really want to see it. Somebody loves you if they’re able to create their own separate world with you, away from the internet and your job and family and friends. Just you and them. Somebody will always love you. If you don’t think this is true, then you’re not paying close enough attention.

I think you could fall in love with anyone if you saw the parts of them no one else gets to see. Like if you followed them around invisibly for a day and saw them crying in their bed at night or singing in the shower or humming quietly to themselves as they make a sandwich or even just walking along the street. And even if they were really weird and had no friends at school, I think, after seeing them at their most vulnerable, you wouldn’t be able to help falling in love with them.

There are two types of waiting. There’s the the waiting you do for something you know is coming, sooner or later—like waiting for the 6:28 train, or the school bus, or a party where a certain handsome boy might be. And then there’s the waiting for something you don’t know is coming. You don’t even know what it is exactly, but you’re hoping for it. You’re imagining it and living your life for it. That’s the kind of waiting that makes a fist in your heart.

PolSci Week.

So it's the official first week of classes although classes really did start the previous week but there were no classes so technically NOW is the first week. I got 5 subjects this sem but it seems like I've been going to school this week only for a single subject: Political Science 13. It's on late afternoons of MWF and this sched is driving me crazy.. and lazy. We have a 4hr break before this class and honestly, I would rather skip my major class prior to the break than to spend 4 hours (literally) spending! Haha!

6th Slogos Night!

Last Wednesday (Nov 14) was the 6th & my 4th Slogos Night! Yep, I've only missed 2 Slogos. I'm not sure why I missed the 3rd night. The 2nd missed Slogos was last week. It was a really long night. I had a fight with my sister, still trying to make up from a fight the previous night with a very close friend, and then ended up fighting with her again that night. Meanwhile, our Slogos team won 1st place! Anyway, I might not be able to join any more Slogos or Trivia Nights since Mommy imposed this "no laag for you until graduation" rule. Yeah, sort of sounds like I'm grounded. :( Good thing we won 3rd place the last time thanks to Ely's dream category: Victoria Secret Angels! :D

Tuesday.

Spent my day in a place where I usually go to with someone I usually go with. I waited for my friend in my newly discovered "comfort space" and it was amazing how she found me there without me telling her that it was where I'd be waiting for her. I was just sitting there leeching wifi from the nearby coffee shop when she called my name. It was really funny since it's not our usual entrance, I can't remember we've ever entered the mall through there. Glad I have a friend who I can spend 6 hours strolling around the mall with & without a single dull moment.

REALLY Big Screen

One of my close high school friends is about to leave the country to pursue her career so we planned a mini get-together, just 6 of us. First, we went to this little place called Firozian Indian Tea House. There were around 3 stalls separated with silk cloth where customers are supposed to squat. When I got there, my friends handed me a glass with a white creamy liquid in it. They urged me to drink it saying it tastes good and so I did but I guess they were being sarcastic. The thing tasted sour, almost like spoiled fresh milk. They also made me eat something they said to taste like leche flan, I really doubted it but I ate it anyway. I didn't understand the taste.

Before long, we decided to try watching a movie at Big Screen Entertainment, a movie house with really big screen. We went there and chose a horror movie called They Wait. It wasn't bad and not too corny. The movie by the way costs 450 pesos since we chose to stay in the "big room" with the wall-sized screen. When we got inside the room, it smelled really nice and the place was really big, about 20 people could fit in there! The screen also kinda has this 3D effect since the walls are a bit curved inward. Since it was a horror movie, we spent half the time covering our eyes with the pillows. Yes, there are pillows in the room and they're very soft. Lots and lots of pillows made of leather and so is the sofa chair. There were also bean bags and large pillows on the carpeted area of the floor and a couple of footrest.

After the movie, we then had pictorials with the screen as our background just like in a photo studio because the lights were really nice. Haha. I will definitely go back to that place!

And then JOHNNIE.

Two days after the night with Jack, we then had Johnnie at a friend's house. We came from joining Trivia Night at Sprockets Cafe wherein we placed 4th. That's really not as bad as you think since the questions are really NOT easy. It was a miracle that my parents allowed me to go out of the house at around 8:30pm; they're kinda strict with going out after sundown. But anyway, at least I get to do THIS stuff again after all the thesis works the whole sem. :)

A BOTTLE OF JACK to drown all the week's stresses away!!

After 5 thesis-revising days, I went out Saturday night to meet 3 of my high school girl friends. We had burger at Army Navy and milk tea at the adjacent tea house, Chatime. We complained on how UN-ergonomic their chairs were! We had to sit-up straight to be able to rest our backs! And a bit later, another of our high school guy friend and his friend came over then we all went to this 'drink-place' across, the Irie Gastropubliko. It looks kinda classy but I wasn't really worried since our guy friend would spend for the night since it's his graduation celebration. We got a bottle of Jack Daniels and played a game called Unspeakable. It's like the Taboo game we're fond of playing with my college friends. There's this word that you have to make your teammates guess just by describing it in words. The catch is that you can't say the 5 words listed below --the very 5 words that could easily be linked with the word to be guessed! It's a really fun game and really makes me feel like I'm very smart. Haha! As the night progressed, we got "smarter" and also noisier! We finished the bottle at around 1am and then went to a Sinangag Station around the corner. We went home almost 2am. Just like that, my stress-level has zeroed down. :D

My "sembreak" sleepovers.

It's been my longest sem in my 11 semesters in college and it's not even over yet! It's the sem of most overnights.. school-related to be specific. And just last week, I spent 3 straight nights at my thesis mate/very close friend's house to work on our thesis revisions. The cool thing is that it wasn't really planned. We spent Monday & Tuesday sleeping at my house and went out on a Wednesday night to join the Slogos Night at Sprockets Cafe, a kinda new indie-themed food place. We ended up 2nd place by the way.

Anyway, after the game, we decided to continue working on our (never-ending) thesis at my friend's house. I had no idea it would be 3 days until I'd be able to see home again! We didn't stop until it's 5am when I got really hungry that we needed to get out of the house to buy something to eat. At 12nn, we woke up and did our thesis once more and without doing anything else significant, went to sleep at around 4am. We didn't even bother to take a bath since we haven't really been anywhere except in front of the laptops. When we got into the bed in the same clothes as when we got up that morning, we remarked that it's as if not a day has gone by since we went to bed the previous night. We woke up earlier on Friday morning since we still had to go to school to submit requirements for another of our major subjects. I wore the blouse I wore the night I left home which was 2 nights ago. (I know. Reduce, reuse, recyle!) We resumed with our "hobby" Friday afternoon still at my friend's house. I'm starting to feel like I live there! I just feel bad for my friend's brothers since they can't use the laptop while we're doing our thesis. They just spent their day watching TV or riding their bikes. Actually, I only got to see so much TV during my stay at their house. I'm not really much of a TV-person. I do watch TV series A LOT but not on TV. Finally, we stopped thesis-ing around 3am Saturday dawn. We slept for around an hour in the clothes we were wearing to school that day (the clothes I wore 2 nights ago.) I went home early that morning since my friend has a plane to catch so I had no choice but to leave the house too. It rained really hard when I was waiting for a jeepney ride home. Good thing, I brought my trusty umbrella with me BUT my right shoe has a hole on the sole! I limped my way home in my soaking shoes. & then I slept with all my might to recharge for the night's activities.

To recap, I spent 5 consecutive days of my week doing thesis! 2 days at my house, and 3 at my friend's. & it's the first week of our "sembreak" by the way.

Like the colors in autumn, so bright, just before they lose it all.

My favorite season! ♥ I wish we have autumn here in the Philippines. :)

I really do! I have really interesting dreams and I even think I'm a lucid dreamer. I get to be able to sort of control my dreams sometimes. Or at least I feel like I'm really the one doing whatever I'm doing in my dreams. My decisions in my dream self is very much like what I would have decided if it were a real situation. Pretty freaky since I'd wake up many times confused thinking I wasn't dreaming because of the real-ness of the dream! There was even this summer when the first thing I'd do when I wake up in the morning is to NOT open my eyes and then recall as much dreams as I can. Then I'd write down keywords on a notebook I placed beside my bed. My dream journal. And then I'd go search the meaning of my dreams in the internet. I'm such a geek!

I've been having an ALARMING appetite lately. Because of the stress maybe? I started to notice that I'm hungry ALL THE TIME when I spent 3 nights pulling all-nighters at Denise's house. Shortly after midnight, I start to get really hungry! The sad thing is that it's the wrong season to be hungry at their house. They haven't gone shopping yet so happy snacks are scarce. So I had to endure my growling stomach for a few more hours before going to 'sleep-therapy.' But seriously, I don't think this hunger is normal. Is this the start of my being 'not thin' phase??
