Life update- I can't believe I'm on my 30's now!!

How's life? How's everything going these days? To give you a picture, my last blog was written from a small apartment in Juan Luna, South Sea Barangay, Rizal, Makati City (now part of Taguig City). Back then, I was living with my boyfriend and our best friend, Jinky. It was a studio unit on the fifth floor with a surprisingly large kitchen and balcony area, and it only cost ₱4,500 a month, ALL IN. The three of us lived together like we were in an episode of F.R.I.E.N.D.S. We shared one queen-size sofa bed that somehow fit our slim bodies at the time, had a tiny shower room, and lived with very little. Yet somehow, I still had enough space to dance around. We didn't have much, but we were packed with big dreams, endless hope, and excitement for what life could become. What a wonderful way to navigate adulthood, right? But that was five years ago... Now I'm 31, turning 32 this October. As I write this, I'm sitting on the balcony of my DMCI condo in Pasig City. Above ...

proving your worth to your company

Hi, Revisiting my blog and I saw this unfinished and unpublished article of mine. I'm leaving it here untouched and unchecked- letting the world feel the raw of this article during the pandemic era 2021.  More or less, our lives should not spin around our work or career right? but we also know that it is a huge part of it because it's our main source of living and we spend most of our time on it.  so it's not surprising to us when eventually it will come to a point where we make our career or work the center of our life, only because we put so much effort and time working on it. so to all my hard worker friends and readers out there, i just want you to know that YOU ARE NOT ALONE! we are all guilty of it but with different levels.  recently I've been struggling with my work- with its system and its process to be specific. i am expecting better management during this pandemic because that's the right way to be.

Years of making a legacy

Image
“ Our bodies are temporary; our legacies are not. ”   Kitty O'Meara Since the day that I step into this adulting world, my mind is calm chaos filled with uncertainties and questions like "What do I want to tell the world?", "What is the thing that I want to create?", questions that I always believed in. That I know deep inside when I start looking for those answers will eventually give me purpose somehow. Today, I am celebrating my 26th birthday- the day the stars and the sky meet to left a mark. And today as we are celebrating their mark I want to the honest- after those years of figuring out who am I, getting lost deeply, being mad swimming away from my ghosts- I still don't know the final answers to those questions. I guess it will always be like that until there are only a few seconds of life left from this soul. But one thing for sure as my thoughts whispered softly with invisible words saying that I'm trying my best to write and to tell a wonderful...

Keeping it Calm and Steady

Image
"...to just be a bare person connecting to its world- feeling every movement of the earth, breathing every air of the sky, burning all your madness, and soaking those memories." When you reached the stage of your life that you're already working, you're supporting your family, you're much aware of your responsibilities, much aware of your dreams and goals -you're also feeling the pressure of it all. Yes?!?! This is truly a big world, so big that it's easy to get lost in it. So many chances, so many possibilities that we people really really want to discover it all in such a short life span, that's why I think we tend to feel pressured every time. I'm an advocate of "go chase your dreams", "go live your life" but we often forget to relax and to just enjoy the moment and to not be productive. Sometimes being unproductive is productive. We have to learn the power of doing nothing from time to time. To give yourself some time to ref...

Welcome to Adulting- it sucks, but I love it!

"Always remind yourself that life sucks sometimes. But remind yourself even more that life is always magical and has its own way of making things possible even if we can't understand them."    Hi everyone! Welcoming you again to my blog! This time I want to welcome everyone to a different type of content which is- ADULTING! I'm a 25-year-old guy trying to figure out life one day at a time, so far it's a bit of a roller coaster ride but I'm kinda really liking it. I guess I like the fact that we are encountering things that we never imagined we will encounter. I'm talking things like; falling in love with your high-school friend, coming out of the closet to your mom, being part of a church choir, making a podcast, moving out from your parent's place, being a social media and influencer marketing manager, and many more unbelievable things that I never really planned when I was younger. I guess also like the feeling of having control over my life somehow,...
