Not in a million years did I realize and thought that in college would I acquire an academic award. Hahaha. Seriously wasn’t serious in studying when I was in high school and elementary. I always tell myself that it’s just okay how I wold just pass in a subject and that’s enough already. Neither did my parents would ever have a strict rule about me having great grades or higher one. But college was so different, I guess it was the freedom I got from my parents that led me into studying more for them and for myself as well. Whenever I see them happy about my grades every end of the semester, I always tell myself to be more productive the next semester. Ow the joy in finding such great pleasure in earning good grades. I know my grades are not that high compared to those who will graduate as a Summa Cum Laude or the Magna Cum Laude, but rest assured that I am much more proud because I have honors to brag to my parents. That in return of the freedom and money that they entrusted me, I still managed to have grades for me to graduate as a Cum Laude.

Yippee dupidoo :)) Few more days and I have now my diploma with me! Thank you God for everything. Thank you o my parents. Thank you for my relatives who help me as well in my studies. Thank you for all the prayers and support. Thank you to my friends. To my best-friend. To my crush that made me want to study more. To waddup. Bwp. Mean. Everyone I knew and became friends with in FEU, thank you so much!

Hihi. Long speech for a 4 years experience :) how about you readers? Excited for anything? Comment on :) have a nice summer! As for me. Job hunting na! Haha.

Xoxo, Lei

I would never ever know what type of future would I get in only a span of a few months. I would never know what type of job would I get or would I even have a job or be in school again. It is so hard to actually see myself in the future. It’s like trying to monopolize your life into an organized life but can’t really. Oh the little unimaginable things in life, it is so scary at times. :/ Right now I don’t even wanna choose three companies to apply to unless I have my grades with me. As if having my grades with me would actually be my answering machine for all those interviews that I would be having soon. Oh what a life. This is what my other cousins have told me to before, that when you were still a student, you want o have a job already, while when you have a job, there you are wanting to be a student again. No stress for applying, no stress in managing your cash, no stress in finding a job where you would be happy. Haha, I hope to solve these problems soon! It is so stressful at times that I over ate already. So not healthy! But hey that’s life :)

How about you guys? Wassup?!

Xo, lei

But before you read this, I think you of all people already knew me and love me for who I truly am :)

If ever you do really come in the future, please understand me. I am the type of person who would change her mind easily. One minute I like to buy hot coffee and change it to a cold one once I am in the counter already, but please, Do UNDERSTAND me :) I am a type of person who have a messy room but knows where everything is. I love to be late sometimes just so I could see if you do have the patience with me. I love writing, so please bear with my cheesy cards for you. I love surprises, so please surprise me as much as I do to you. I love watching movies, so please be my movie buddy. I love having long walks while talking about life, so please be my walking buddy. I love traveling to different cities and paradise, so please be my travel buddy. I have a massive amount of mood swings, so please understand me. But mostly, understand me when I am passionate to my parents cause I would love it if you do too.

I know these are a long set of list but I know the right one is out there searching for me. And one day I will have cheesy long post about it. I am a sucker for love stories so bear with me future hubby!
And bear with me readers. Haha. Been writing this at night and my imagination can’t stop that I know I have to share it here, Goodnight :)

Xo, lei <3 the cheesy lover

Really really really nostalgic right now! Yesterday was the last day of my college life. I can’t believe that four years has already pass and I can see myself on stage soon taking my diploma with me and finally be a person with a degree. I can still remember my first day when I didn’t even know that I should be bringing a yellow paper for class. I still remember who became my friends that very same day! And i am really proud to say that those people are still my friends right now.
Even though college wasn’t all that smooth in the process, like there were sad parts as well, I will still miss those things. Maybe not that much, but they completed a set of values and learning that are very much needed and with me right now. Of course the best parts are those that I will truly miss as I end my student life. First are those friends that I won’t be seeing as often as I could. It won’t be the same anymore. You aren’t in class anymore stressing about school works or being giddy about crushes that walk pass the corridors. Instead you will all be talking about the careers each of you have and the families you already have. It will not just be the same at all. Second would be the allowance that you receive without any hard work at all. Money money money, I would really miss you this time if I don’t start searching for a job soon! Everything is kind of surreal right now. Sporadic sad feelings now and then. Memories to treasure and is a huge part of my college life. Aww college! I will miss Manila. My dorm, which I live in most of the time than my real home. Actually started packing yesterday :/ my friends who I could see 4 times or 2 times a week. My best friend who I live with. Wearing my uniform. My black shoes. The school. Everything that has to do with my college life. Arg, it really sucks to say good bye, but I know bigger things are set for me in the corporate world. It is time to say ta-ta and toodles. But one thing is for sure. Readers I am here to stay :))

See you when I am employed! But right now, I will enjoy my 2 weeks summer vacation before I start finding my job! Tell me about your experiences or drop by on my twitter!! @akosiEllei.

Today(feb 27) I went to Quiapo Church and asked help from the black nazarene. i can’t believe how fast he works in mysterious ways. Cause after that I went to school and had my measurements and toga with me. Then it feels surreal how in a few more months I’ll be hearing my name be mentioned on stage and I will finally have my diploma. Everything is so fast track that somehow I feel nostalgic about the little things i went through in school. Every hardship and stress, every laughter and happiness! All of these things will now be part of a memory and next stop will be a world in the work place. All of it feels surreal and just plain scary at the same time. Indeed i am becoming someone more mature and it feels in good in ways that I haven’t imagined at all..
One more thing that led me into writing this little blog was that I am so happy to make my parents so proud of me! I mentioned to them how I got exempted on our final exam for law. And my dad kept saying ‘yehey’ on the phone and I was just happy that I could share to them the happiness that I felt that time. It made me feel worth of the cost they have incurred in sending me to school! I know finals is still not over. And neither do the grades for my other subjects in place. But still, a little consolation is enough for now. :) A little smile and laughter from my parents would now be my inspiration to study harder for the coming days and hopefully it will be super strong for me to achieve everything that I have always wanted. Cause everything is worth it when all the things you have and will have are dedicated to your love ones:)

One of the things that i have learned in life this past few months was o never be hard on yourself. If you are imperfect, have a lot of flaws, ugly, fat or even the type of person who does not know a lot, learn to give yourself some time to appreciate your little flaws and maybe you will get o see that behind those things are people who supports you for who you are and for what you are. Other people who criticize you basically hates you in ways because they do not have the support system that you have. They maybe perfect in ways that you will never be, but they cannot take your support system and make them feel good inside and out. Sometimes flaws are just ways by God to test us on how we will stand up for ourself and realize the things that matters the most and the people who are really true to you. So by that, let us just be happy and contented. Love and never hurt others purposely! Think first before you speak. Feel the love and appreciate it. Be purposeful. Be thankful. And mostly love others too. :)

So how are you guys? I hope your 2013 is full of realizations in life. :) cause mine is and it is only the first two months :) hope you have a great year ahead :)

Watched AGNOiA last February 8, 2013, Friday. The poster was of a man with two dimensions. I thought it would be about psychotic or lunatic people. But anyway, when I saw the bottom lines in the poster, I knew then that it was about astrology. It got me excited! I’m a big fan of astrology, sometimes I even based my actions from it. If you’re intrigued what sign I am. Then, here it goes. I’m a Sagittarius, Fire sign that’s govern by Jupiter, who is the god of Luck and Philosophy. Sagi are said to be adventurous, happy go lucky and friendly as well. Oh, we could on on and on about the sagittarius and other signs but I’m here to tell you about the play, so on with it :)
The line for the play was actually long and you need to have patience if you really want to watch it. It took about 30 minutes of waiting and standing in line before we can finally sit on our seats. :) luckily I am with my friends and it is less of a stress to wait. Good thing also that our professor let us watched the play and ditch his class. Nah, kidding, he wanted us to watch the play because he is our literature professor and he wanted us to learn hands on. :)
The play started by 7pm and on with the show :) the background people were a bit scary, they were wrapped up with white clothing’s like that with a mummy. They move as if they are at an uneasy state. They move slowly like you rewinded them. The main actors are talking one by one and are saying the facts per zodiac sign.
Next act was in a hospital where they are paging a certain doctor(I forgot the name, darn it) a man was sitting at the waiting area and a gay asked him if he could maybe seat beside him at the other seats. And the man said yes. The gay person then reached for the newspaper dated a few days ago but still decided to read it because of the horoscopes. He then mentioned that he is an Aquarian. And a lot more about the sign Aquarius. Then he exits and a woman came and sit at the bench again and read that of the same newspaper, he talked to the man on the bench and blabbed about things and life, which she didn’t even personally knew. I then knew what zodiac she was even before she said it. Yes, she is a cancer! They are I think the most emotional people. I have a few friends who are a cancer and this prove to be correct. And they love to blabbed about their problems and mostly they don’t really see the goodness in everything. Haha, mean but true with some of my friends. :) peace to those who are cancers and maybe they don’t see themselves like this.
The woman said things about her life more and then she exited as well.
Some of the scenes from the play are a blur for me :) some aren’t, one of the scenes was where the Sagittarius man was in his towel only and he was caressing his girlfriend. But the girl was so hesitant, thereof it was just funny how he was just swatted and left with. It is funny because I have Sagittarius guy friends and I know how they are. They are very lustful but hey they are friendly as well. :) sometimes too friendly for your taste but anyway. lol
the play ended when the cast was telling what things should be done. I.e. the virgo woman should tell what she really feels and don’t let her partner over think to much, Get To The Point. And so on. Well the play was really good. I enjoyed and most of the time I just laugh because of the way they act. Plus points for the things you learn. So if you are an FEU student. Go and watch. :) I think it is still shown this week!

So guys, I miss blogging, but too much things lately! Sorry for that. But I’ll blog about my travel things with Rae soon! I hope you are all fine. :) have a happy valentines week! Enjoy even if you’re single :)

Xo, Lei.

Eeekkk. My post for the story of my Christmas was accidentally deleted! Aww. Even if it was short it was kinda my reminder of how lovely we celebrated Christmas this year! I’ll try my best to write another one about it though :) maybe not the exact same words but same meaning!

So hi hi :) only a few more days and we’ll finally leave 2012 behind! So much for the end of the world huh? That was a laugh! Haha. I’m happy it never ended. Come on! Life is so much fun that being stress about the end of the world is a boohoo.. And come to think of it, if it really was gonna end, at least we’ll be with God the father.. Yippee ;)

But enough of that, I would just like to share with you how awesome it is to be able to spend the holidays with people that I love. Even cousins and nephews&nieces who I don’t usually have quality time with. It’s just fantastic! Even if my cousins from Manila haven’t come home yet, I’m looking forward for them.. Hihi, it’s actually a ritual for us to celebrate new year together and to altogether count down the seconds for 2013 and to jump as high as we can and to shout to the world (okay neighborhood) that this is the start of something new!! Can’t wait for the eve of new year! Gonna be preparing Filipino games like Pinoy Henyo and games for kids. Yes, I still play those! It’s okay to feel like you’re a child once in a while..haha. Even if most of the time I am the host and not the player anymore, it’s still FUN..

So how about you guys? How’s your holidays? I hope you’re enjoying as much as I do.. And I hope new year will be the start of something new for you too! Until my next post!

Xoxo, lei

Today people that love me and people that I love are the sweetest people ever. I can’t believe that I am already 20 years old today! The time flies faster each year. No more teen years for me but hello to my early adulthood.
Everything fell into place today. I guess 13 is really my lucky number :) I went for work late than my usual time but still got there (office) on time. I didn’t even waited long for the train to arrive. No hassle at all. Except maybe the train ride going home from work. But other than that. Everything is falling to its right place,. I even got a cupcake from my bosses at work which I didn’t even absolutely taught about that they’ll do that for me. At this age I am so touched even at the slightest sweetness of people and gets irritated at the slightest snob-ish moods of others.
I guess life is short to be a snob or to just hate it. For me, reaching this age is by far a miracle from God, I hope He gives me five times more my age if He’ll provide.

To all who greeted me on Facebook, twitter, and instagram. Wow. Thank you so much! Especially to all the people who actually knows my birthday and is greeting me since last week in advance :)
I hope a lot of the other people could change their perspective about 13 being an lunlucky number or whatever. Remember, it’s all about he perspective. So change it!! LOL..
But seriously thank you thank you. And to all who reads my little share in the world of blogging. Thanks!

Have a great almost weekend. :)
Love lots. Xo, Lei

This morning, I got a text message from my mom that tomorrow I’ll be turning 20 and that she and dady loves me unconditionally and that they are blessed that GOD had gave me to them.. The emotional wreck that I am this week made me so gushy and I just had to call her immediately. When she answered her phone, I told her that I am so Inis (annoyed) because she just made me even sadder. Cause I am so home sick cause I thought that I’ll be celebrating my birthday for the first time that they don’t have any birthday cake for me.. Well, maybe a few of you won’t understand why I am so emotional about it. But going back to every birthday that I have, I always have a birthday cake from them. It’s sort of our tradition every year. So as a daughter who always have small touching moments like that made me emotional.. I kept crying outside our office while talking to her, which is a bit embarrassing right now that I think about it.. But then she’s like telling me to stop crying na. And then she called me again after that and told me that daddy was supposed to really come tomorrow to surprise me and celebrate my birthday with me and my best friend.. Hahah! Talk about the surprise being spoiled, but at least I get to celebrate my birthday with dady. Yippee..

My parents are the best! That’s why I super duper love them so much. No matter what, they are just the greatest,. Tapos medyo nahiya na talaga ako ngayon kasi naisip ko iniiyakan ko padin ung mga ganung bagay.. Eh bente na ako!! Hahahaha. Pero okay Lang, sabi ko naman talaga sa dati kong post, until tumanda ako, I’ll be the baby of my parents padin..

Tas singit pa sa mga kaibigan ko na ngmamahal sa akin! Grabe talaga, ung tipong pingkakanta ka na ng happy birthday Wala pa man.. Saya talaga. :) Tapos today binilhan din ako ng gift in Shelley.. Isang Aztec na skirt! Grabe, nakamit ko din! Thank you talaga sa lhat!! Dame blessings talaga ko ngayon na nattanggap.. Thank you lord..

How about you guys? How is your holiday? Nalalasap nio na ba ang simoy ng palalapit na Pasko? Have a nice day! :)
