Day 18
Day 18- Plans/dreams/goals you have
I’d like to make my mom happy as much as I can with the remaining time I may have with her.
I also dream of finding that one thing which will not make me feel like I’m working and help me take the path to that long and winding road to fulfilling whatever that passion may be.

Day 17
Day 17- Someone you would want to switch lives with for one day and why
I’ve always been attracted with people who went through heavier darker times and still found the strength to fight and survive them. Maybe because from them, I see myself.
“I’m still a bad girl. I still have that side of me…it’s just in its place now…it belongs to Brad.” (Jolie,...

Young Critics Circle Film Desk: On Criticism →

Eulalio R. Guieb III
Criticism interrogates. It interrogates our individual and collective experiences with meanings. There are meanings that detain us in the prisons of our oppressors, and there are meanings that tell us which truths are more preferred under the contingencies of our…

Day 13
Day 13- A letter to someone who has hurt you recently
Dear Papa,
I never knew how to call you. Because everytime I do, it sounds more of a call wrapped in a curse. A curse that would always bring me back to distant but fresh memories of pain and vague strains of smile. Bursts of laughter which later turned into one-liners, then by a cold nod, and then silence, and silence. You’re the...

Day 12- How you found out about Tumblr and why you made one
I found out about Tumblr way back in 2009 through my former boardmate, Veda. I remember one night when she asked me if I knew about Tumblr. I said yes, the one which holds your water and which you drink with. And then she laughed.o__O
She’s the one at the left. (circa 2007)
And thanks to her, now I know what Tumblr is. Aside...

Day 11
Day 11- Another picture of you and your friends
This was taken during our very first time to join a protest rally as a group to oppose the impending Aquino budget cut on UP way back in 2010. I guess it was Joseph who was taking the photo so he wasn’t here.
One of our most memorable memories. Joining the march and singing the chant out aloud and together amidst the widespread apathy and...

Day 09- Something you’re proud of in the past few days
It has already been a day so I guess this could count.:p
I’ve been wanting to have my own tattoo since 2010 and it was just yesterday that I’ve finally braved all the fear to get one. It was a huge battle with myself, how I wanted it bad but thinking of how it would still look in me when I’m already 50 years old and my...

Day 8
Day 08- Short term goals for this month and why
1. I would like to go back taking dance classes again. A lot has been happening in my life lately and I feel that I needed a refresher and this would be the perfect time to say hello to my former baby once again.
2. This month, I plan to mend my relationships with some of my friends. I believe conflicts are always there in any kind of...

Day 6
Day 06- Favorite super hero and why
Jennifer Garner as Elektra Natchios in Daredevil
I’ve always loved her ever since her ALIAS days. And this role of hers just confirmed how bad ass kickin’ perfect formed and toned babe she is. And oh, lemme just say. Ben Affleck, you ruined that career and body. LOL

Day 5
Day 05- A picture of somewhere you’ve been to
This is our sanctuary. A place in Batangas so far away from its capital city that you’ll almost think it’s already another place. Some friends who live here are not even aware this place exists. We usually go here when we want some hiatus from the city and the busy muddled life it brings. What keeps us coming back is it’s exclusivity, the...

I Have Mastered Forgetting: A 2012 Playlist →
huhusaysmyrobot:
Year 2011 was such a roller coster for me as I graduate from university and join the labor force. It definitely had so many highs but the lows were definitely low. And so I thank 2011 for making me a better, stronger person. In reference to the playlist’s title, I say let’s all be masters of…

Things You Need In Order To Stay Happy
You need to make plans to see someone on a Tuesday because having a guaranteed fun activity in the middle of the week will keep you sane and give you something to look forward to. And let’s face it, we all need something to look forward to during the work week. I’m all for having a dinner party with a few of my friends and getting three glasses of wine drunk at 9pm and being in bed by 11. By...

Day 4
Day 04- A habit that you wish you didn’t have
I wish I just didn’t have the habit of overthinking. I tend to be paranoid over the smallest things and exaggerate my thoughts about it until it comes to the point that I’m freaking out already because I’m assuming things that aren’t even happening yet. I tell myself that it’s just my way of preparing myself, like if...

Day 3- A picture of you and your friends
These are my college friends.
And my office friends.
These two groups of friends are so different from each other I can’t believe how we even went along. I’m missing my college friends. We haven’t seen each other as a group since graduation and we’ve started to drift apart lately due to personal issues, differences, and maybe also due to distance now...

Day 2
Day 02- The meaning behind your Tumblr name
I Sink to Rise- I chose this as the name of my blog since it serves as a reminder that in every downfall, there’s always redemption. It reminds me that when something pulls you so down into oblivion drowning you into downright emptiness, there’s always the choice of rising, getting back on your feet and find yourself once again. It’s about learning the...

When it still hurts the same
When you almost thought you’re strong enough, it comes back. And then again you start drop-kicking that heart back into that familiar black hole.
