Know Your Worth


"Know your worth. – When someone treats you like you’re just one of many options, help them narrow their choice by removing yourself from the equation.  Sometimes you have to try not to care, no matter how much you do.  Because sometimes you can mean almost nothing to someone who means so much to you.  It’s not pride – it’s self-respect.  Don’t expect to see positive changes in your life if you surround yourself with negative people.  Don’t give part-time people a full-time position in your life.  Know your value and what you have to offer, and never settle for anything less than what you deserve." - taken from 14 Rules for Being YOU ...

Pork Nilaga :)

Pork Nilaga

Ingredients
Pork Ribs
Petchay
Red Bell Pepper
Baguio Beans
Spring Onions
Tomato
Ginger
Salt to Taste
1 Piece Kalamansi
4 Drops Soy Sauce

I am the only one practicing pescetarian diet in my family and most of the time they do not like eating fish and vegetables. So I need to cook like this. Though I am not into strict pescetarian diet because it is really hard to cook different dishes in one meal when there are only three of us eating. I do not like wasting food. Basically I eat the vegetables and they eat the meat.

Tears of Fears...


"We can't love a person with an all accepting, transcending and encompassing love; without being hurt somewhat; without being disappointed; without being failed of our expectations...We can't love without being broken, yet we can't continue in love without being stronger than our brokenness..."

Take A Chance


Take A Chance On Me
by JLS
You're so scared to fall in love
Coz you end up in the dust
Everytime... Everytime...
Now you see us all the same
Like our words are just a game
Spitting lies, dirty lies
I know you know
There's something here
But you cannot get past the fear
I can help you make it clear...
So when you feel like trying again
Reach out, take my hand
See how great it could be
To fall in love with someone you can trust
Who would never give up
Cuz you're all that he needs

My Reliever...


When the world is too busy of its own business…I’d rather have a pencil and notebook wherein I could write things up without disturbing other people.  It has been a year, though I didn't tell you much of happy stories rather hurtful encounters and rants, you never complain nor give up on me.

It will take almost forever before that one wish may come true but I am forever thankful that you've been there every step of the way…silent and ready to take part in my pain and happiness…


I just hope I’d be more creative. :D
