Drama Notes

"If you wear boring clothes, you will lead a boring life. "
- excerpt from Real Clothes, J-drama

And somehow, even though I am no fashion guru myself, I felt the truth about this statement deep in my bones.

Choosing a Top

My friends and I went to the mall this evening to hunt for the perfect bikini to wear to Cebu. I didn't really need a new pair since I already have a few in my closet. But a perfect getaway needs a perfect outfit right? *wink*

But how can you tell if it's the right one?

My friends told me that a bikini should complement a person's personality. First you have to choose the style. Then the color. And of course, it has to fit well - tactfully hiding the little love bars on your sides that you've gained over the holidays.

Do you know what I ended up with?

Animal prints. And what's funny is, all my friends told me that it was just right. Makes me wonder what they really think about me, huh?

Personally, when they told me that the top made my little "babies" appear bigger, I saw big bold neon letters on top of my head spelling out...SOLD!

In the end, isn't that all that matters? :)

Must be the Hormones II

I never knew that beauty marks (a.k.a nunal) were sexy...

until now.

Gulp.

Must be Hormones

"Don't shit on your own backyard." is what I would always tell my friends. And because of it, I've tried really hard not to get involved with anybody at work.

But this time, with Frenchie Fries (obviously a code name) around, I find myself itching to shit just about anywhere.

None The Wiser

Now that I'm getting older, I find myself being scared of a lot of things. Or maybe it's because I've gotten older that I have lost that unwavering confidence that only comes with youth. I've recently come to admit to myself that I have always been afraid.

I am afraid of my body and the various changes that's been happening to it as I grow older.

I am afraid of my mind because I feel it closing in on me and refusing to accept new things because of my arrogance.

I am afraid to live because I might get attached to life ... only to have it taken from me by the time I realize its worth.

Being older doesn't really mean becoming wiser. It only means being a little bit more honest to yourself and the things that are happening to your life.

If that makes any sense at all...

Brrrr

It's cold.

Philippines must be the only tropical country that has ice boxes for offices.

Urg. With offices like these, who needs winter??

Exhausting

Maybe it's because I'm nearing THAT dreaded age that I'm starting to...

1. Think of all the past things I've done and trying to rewrite everything in my head.
2. Think of settling down. Gasp!
3. Think of how close I am to the age when I said I wanted to die but not doing the things I said I wanted to do before I did.
4. Think of letting go..of a lot of things.

It's this age that makes me think of where I'm currently at and assessing if I'm really happy with how I lived my life.

God, I sure hope this year finishes quickly so that I don't have to think anymore.
