I hate brushing my teeth at night because that signifies that you can’t have anymore food and I’m just never ready for that kind of commitment
How to feel better and become better

"
- If you like someone, wait.
- Give lots of compliments, even if you’re shy. Everyone else is too.
- Change. Get a haircut, try new perfume, get new sheets. Become better than you were before.
- Eat healthier. Learn to cook something fancy.
- Get up earlier and watch the sun come up.
- Wear soft clothes, take a bath, drink something warm.
- Meet someone new, even just a friend.
- Become closer with your friends and your family. Call your mother. Cry with your best friend. Tell everyone how much you appreciate them.
- Keep your room clean. Buy some candles. Let the natural light in.
- Make a list of reasons why you’ll be better off without them. Believe they are true, because they are.
- Listen to new music.
- Write everything you’re thinking and feeling. Write letters. Write happy letters, sad letters, and angry letters, even if you’re never going to send them.
- It’s okay to be sad, but not forever. Sadness is not as beautiful as music makes it seem. Lack of sleep makes your eyes droopy, not deep. Wake up every morning and tell yourself you’re going to have a good day.
- Go to the library. Don’t forget to look in the music section.
- Remove them from your life. Get rid of the things they gave you if they make you sad. They’re not worth it. You will never be happy if you continue to hold on to the things that make you sad.
- Make new memories.
- Try to find something to appreciate in everything you do or experience.
- Being alone is okay, you don’t have to surround yourself with people.
- Become your own best friend. Buy yourself coffee and drink it alone in a cafe. Take your time.
- Learn to love every bit of yourself.

Don’t just say it, do it.
As cheesy as it sounds, I’m quoting myself, this is a quote i decided to construe and live by since i started to get frustrated with life asking why do we all say we will do so much but achieve so little. Even more so when others promise to do other things for you but fail you easily can’t get disheartened and give up. But honestly, at the end of the day, you are accountable to yourself, so if you want something, then you yourself have to work hard and do it, don’t be all talk. Let your actions speak louder than your words.
How many people still remember you?

Read more »
Have you ever thought about how many people you have met over your life time? How many thousands of faces you have seen and how many conversations have you had that have become forgotten? As time quickly ages us, allowing people we once knew become strangers again, I wonder how many people that we no longer remember still remember us?
How many people from our past can still remember our face, something that we said to them, or something that we did for them? Did we mean something to somebody, but just failed to notice? Out of all the faces that we no longer think about, how many of them would still be able to notice you if two crossed paths? How many times is your name repeated when people reminisce about their childhood or the good old times?
Isn’t it weird that you could still be on someones mind that is no longer on yours? How you could of meant more to someone and be part of their memories? How you may never truly know how many people still remember you?

Dont' want no flowers
When my life is gone
Don't ever bury me
Dont' want no flowers
Or trees growing over me
When my life is gone
Keep my name forever silent
Lest the winds carry it
And destroy my eternal peace
When my life is gone
Shed no tears for me
It would be such a waste
To weep over your enemy
When my life is gone
Set my soul aflame
Lest it get away from me
And Hinder my Escape.

This Photo is not really connected in love! I just want to took a selfie and post it here :)
Check out my facebook --> Joyce Magbanua thanks !! ^_^
Complicated love is love which is complex and involves several risks, misunderstandings and complications. When you have lots of heated discussions with your partner and there are fights ensuing than love, then your love gets complicated. Work hard to solve all your problems and confusion with your partner. You need to settle all your differences when they arise and at the end, love should win and take over all your differences and issues. It is only the people involved in a relationship who make it simple or complicated. So, everything basically depends on the partners. They should be co-operative enough with each other and understand each other’s problems and situation. In the words of Dalai Lama, “There is no need for temples, no need for complicated philosophies. My brain and my heart are my temples; my philosophy is kindness.

Insomniac Rage!

11:02pm - Philippine Time
There are nights where I just can’t sleep, It’s as if the moment I just want to close my eyes is the time where my mind feels like it’s the best opportunity to begin racing with thoughts, memories, and ideas. As I try searching for an off switch, I realize that there may not even be one and my will just have to deal with another restless night. And for few hours, I become a philosopher as I questioned the meaning of life and why the world is the way it is. I become a storyteller as I come up with creative scenarios in my head that may never occur. I become a historian as I able to remember my past while missing or regretting it. In this insomniac time, I lie wide awake trying to figure out my life when all I want to do is to stop thinking.
And the weirdest thing is how alone I feel during these moments. How it feels like I am the only one awake as people were dreaming in another realm. But truth is, those nights that I can’t sleep, there is someone else out there too. There is someone driving the empty roads hoping that it will bring some clarity. There is someone who is on the internet, listening to music, or watching TV as they are hoping it will take their minds of the things they don’t want to think about. And there is someone like me, just laying in bed thinking. Letting my mind race with my deepest thoughts. At the darkness of night, thousands of souls are awake with me… not being able to sleep.

When the devil keeps on asking you to look at your past, there must be something good in the future he doesn't want you to see. Don't be deceived. Don't dwell in the past. God has something in store for you. Wait and see, keep the faith and hold unto Him.

To the one who stole my PHONE T.T
Dear Sir Or Madam,
I won't lie -- I was angry when I realized you had stolen my phone.
I didn't want to believe it was theft when I'm going to ride at LRT TRAIN STATION after giving a poetry reading while waiting for the train to come... I wanted to believe it had fallen. But it hadn't. I wanted to believe I left it in a cargo pocket or maybe a pocket in my pants; some little pouch I rarely check. But I hadn't. I wanted to believe someone maybe picked it up by mistake, despite having an incredibly 100% unique PERSONA 4-themed background and a brown case - But they didn't.
I was hopeful that you would answer the phone when I called from a friend's mobile. Or again, when I called from the venue's phone. I hoped you'd reply when I texted my own number with my email, a friend's phone number, and a message that said the phone that you had contained photos and text for two articles due today, and that is my livelihood (and believe me, I desperately need the money). But you didn't.
I will admit, I kept the faith that somehow, someway, this was all one big mistake and I'd end up getting it back. It took a while for Find My SmartPhone to register where you were, because you were smart. You turned off the phone when you picked it up. I'm pretty sure you were annoyed to find it took forever to turn off, because the power button is mostly broken. I usually had to push it HARD against a table edge or wall corner just to get it to register. It seems you figured that trick out as well. And when you turned it back on again, and I got a message saying it had been located nearly 50 miles away, I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that you stole it.
Now, here's the part you probably knew was coming. Here's where I tell you what I hope for you. And I'm certain you're getting ready to brush off hopes from a stranger whose phone you pilfered that you end up with AIDS-laced cancer and during treatment, some horrific sadist of a hospice nurse tortures you for weeks before you finally burn in hell. Or, at the very least, that I run into you one day and I hit you. Hard.
A few years ago, yes. Once I realized that you stole from me, the chants would have begun in earnest at the top of my voice that the heavens destroy you with one thousand plagues, but not before I got the chance to beat the living crap out of you.
Today, that's not at all what I hope. You know what I hope?
That you're not a thief. I hope you are merely a desperate person in a desperate situation. Maybe you lost your job, and knew you could get a little quick cash from an automated phone trade-in machine.
Maybe you have children. Maybe you've been struggling week to week to keep them fed. Maybe you don't have children, but you yourself are having trouble making food appear on your dinner plate every night.
Maybe you have an income, but it's just enough to get by -- and medical expenses or an emergency repair to your car or even a speeding ticket threw your budget into a tizzy.
Maybe you're just like me -- going through one hell of a hard time. And you saw an easy fix to a situation and you took it.
I hope you're a good person in a bad situation. Because I know that I've had those thoughts. Trust me, I've had them. Just two weeks ago, I literally had 300.. I didn't plan on having only 300 peso. It was a catastrophic sequence of events all at once in a very short period of time that drained every single money I had.I have a sick dog, a locked Paypal account due to an errant eBay purchase,and a very untimely deactivated phone (the one you stole)
I was pretty desperate. And thankfully, I received some money from people I did not see coming. Two very wonderful, very generous people just randomly helped me out. I didn't ask them. I didn't even hint that I needed help. I just got an envelope with some cash in it. It wasn't a lot, but it got me straight for the time being.
And I'm still there. I'm still trying to get straight. That's why the phone you stole was so important, and that's why the texts and messages you received sounded so desperate. It's not that I just can't wait to Facebook all night, or return texts from friends, or that I can't be separated from my email for a day.
In my heart, you're a person in need. And that being the case, I no longer consider my phone stolen. I gave it to you. And I hope that whatever you got for it helps you out of whatever bind you're in. Because if not for the kindness of several very generous people the past few weeks, I'd be so very screwed. It's amazing how the universe works. It just seems to provide exactly what you need when you need it.
And even if you simply are a thief, you taught me a lesson. I was pretty low when I realized my phone was stolen. Like I said earlier, I was so angry with you when I realized you stole it. That anger sat in me for a while. I wasn't instantly enlightened or anything. I'm no Zen Buddhist. In fact, I reflected on my stolen phone as the latest item in a checklist named Everything Is Going Absolutely Batshit Crazy In My Life.
And that's where I realized, I've been where I am thinking you are now. I've been at the deepest part of a sinkhole that opened up in my life and swallowed everything in it. So I know exactly how boundless what you're willing to do can get. And that's why I'm giving you my phone. Consider it a fair exchange for the perspective you gave me this morning.
Sincerely,
Joyce. T.T

University of Manila. this picture was taken at my old University School. It was back on 2011. I currently remember things from then, such as my crush on campus, friends that Ive been made, the teacher who scolded me for saying to him that he was handsome because of his new look, and every fun and sad moment that had happened. I wish we could go back to past and re-writ things that have wouldnt happened but as far I am concerned about it. If it didnt happened, who am I going to be from now on? Life is pretty harsh, you can never make things go what you wanted, but still life is beautiful you just have to look on the bright side, there is your love ones, friends - family.
