Since it’s Halloween, I thought to myself I should have a post here that pays tribute to the popular holiday. Ghosts and the dead… hmmm… not really related to the theme of this blog, huh? But what the heck, it’s part of life too, right? Actually, to be honest, I’m an easily frightened person. I get easily scared of ghosts, spirits, even the dark! But now that it’s Halloween, I’m gonna set aside my fears for a while and share with you scary stories that will curl your toes and give you a pounding heartbeat.

• In a classroom, all students were asked to share their most memorable place. After all were done, one silent pale girl stood up and said: “My most memorable place is this classroom, were I killed myself.”

• One day, this guy went on their college batch reunion. On his way to the function hall he saw his ex-girlfriend… she smiled at him and said… “How are you?! It’s been 10 years seen we’ve last seen each other! You look great! I missed you.” Then she hugged him very tight and ran away without any last words… he didn’t even get a chance to talk because he was very surprised. Then, a few minutes after the incident… he asked his old friends about his ex-girlfriend “How is she?” Upon hearing his question… all of his friends were shocked and one of them said… “Dude, she committed suicide a year after you left her. She’s already been dead for 9 years.”

• There was a couple who prayed for a child and they had a girl. She was the ugliest child they had ever seen. Two years later, the family decided to go on a camping trip. During the trip, the child asked if she could pee. So, they stopped near the bridge of the mountain. Then there was an accident. The little girl fell off the bridge and died. A few years later… they were blessed with another child. She was the prettiest child ever. They loved her and gave her everything. One day, they went on a camping trip. On the way, the child asked if she could pee. So they stopped. The little girl looked at her mother and said “Mom, please don’t push me again.”

I also came across this beautifully written blog by Jowell called Spoon Lagoon and he published some really scary stories that you will enjoy too and will make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. Read his posts here: Pinoy Urban Legends 1.0 and Pinoy Urban Legends 2.0

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!!!

In life, there are lots of lessons to be learned and lots of experiences that will teach us valuable lessons.

In matters of the heart, we learn that maybe, just maybe… we need to go through the wrong people first in order to find the right one. In relationships, we learn that maybe we need to break up to grow up. In friendships, we learn that not everyone you consider a friend will stick with you till the end. In life, we learn that something special is taken away from us to give way to something much better.

Life is a journey… and in that journey, somehow, we learn all kinds of lessons. Through all that, we laugh, we cry, we stumble and fall, but we get up and move on. That’s life… and everything that goes along with it. It’s an amazing journey, so enjoy the ride!

I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go… things go wrong so that you can appreciate them when they’re right… You believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together…

Life is too short for regrets. No buts, no ifs, no lies. Love the people who treat you right, forget the ones who don’t. Things happen for a reason. If you see a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody says its easy. But its all worth it.

When your life goes wrong, don’t waste your time looking back to what you’ve lost, for the road of life was never meant to be travelled backward. Just move on and say… thing’s always happen for a reason.

Dear God,

I’m doing this for you… I’m letting go… I’m giving up the greatest happiness I’ve ever known… because You made me feel that it’s the right thing to do. I’m so confused and I don’t know if this is really what you want me to do… but I took a risk. I took a huge risk. It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done… but thank you for giving me the courage to do it.

This is the best thing to do, right? I think I’ve made the right decision. But why am I crying? Why do I feel so miserable and alone? Will this wound ever heal? Will the pain ever go away? Will I regret this for the rest of my life? They say that when one door of happiness closes, another will open… so I’m holding on that hope. The hope that you want something better for me, and at the end of it all, it will be worth the sacrifice.

I’m doing this for you, Father. My greatest sacrifice. Please help me through this coz I can’t do this on my own…

We got a package today from our beloved aunt in Canada, a huge box of food and clothes. Her adopted son is staying with us, so he has his share of toys and daily necessities too. When the box arrived, we couldn’t open it with a normal knife because it was completely sealed and it was hard to cut through all the tape! Especially since the knife was not that sharp. It would have been nice if we had a box cutter at home, it would definitely prove handy. After a few minutes or ripping and cutting, finally we were able to open the box. And geez!!! Chocolates and clothes galore! After munching on some sweet Toblerone, I thought it was definitely worth the effort. Hehe.

I dream of traveling around the world someday. I would love to see different places and cultures and people of various origins. Traveling is fun and exciting, but it’s also costly. You can’t just go around the world with a few dollars in your pocket, can you? You have to have the means to pay for your airfare, lodging, food, and recreation. Of course, as with any travel, you have to invest in a good and durable luggage as well. I find the Delsey luggage perfect for these travel needs. Although I haven’t really traveled around the world yet, I use it for short distance, domestic travel, and I love it. It’s sturdy and easy to bring along, not to mention good looking. You have to know how to pick the right travel luggage because it’s gonna be your companion wherever you go. You’re going to need your clothes and things with you, won’t you?
