It only takes 1 hour and 43 minutes to smile again

Turf: in front of lappy
Dash: watching Rafael Nadal final match


After blues and bumps of unwanted feelings that you encounter in an invited moments of your solitude in the soonest time it come to you, it is also in the soonest time it will fade away unexpectedly.

I am in search of getting over the minutes of blows which I encountered surprisingly and I don't want to welcome these visitors called "blues" knowing it will bring bad day, bad thoughts, wrinkled face, uneasy feeling etc., Though, as much as possible relying on the FB community to resolve these bouts in your life is isn't normal but somehow you can find a bit of comfort and forget all about it. Browsing the wall posted by my friends on FB I saw the final match of Rafael Nadal in Barcelona and in just 1 hour left it will soon start.

Like all the dark cloud envelopes you at that moment suddenly cleared up and thousands of twinkling stars appeared in front of you to cheer you up.



After long 6 months of rest and recuperation of Rafael Nadal he is finally back in shape, after his comeback he already won 4 different titles and from his no. 1 rank down to no. 4 now in a few months back in the game he ranks to no. 2 he is only 1 step away to the ladder of no. 1 rank title in the tennis world. Rafael Nadal once again proves to the world he is still the same "The King of Clay" by winning the final for his 8th Barcelona title. Its a no surprise to everyone since Rafa knows how he really works hard, how discipline he was when it comes to tennis.



The time has come and connection become the challenge it always connection failed, open link after another, then after another, until decided to refresh the page and a few new link connections appeared, I guess this is what you called "fate". Voila! The links connected and the live streaming starts it almost past an hour before I able to watch the game Rafa's has almost soaked in sweat and the score gives me a twinkling eye its 6-4 1-0 Rafa leads.  Live streaming is freezing almost every second but it doesn't matter anymore, what matter is watching the final that creates another history in the name of Rafa. My heart is throbbing doubled though I only watched it on the flat screen of my laptop, but the feeling is like I'm seated in the bleacher with thousands of people shouting aloud around me. This is intense. The tensions are getting deeper as I've watched his opponent Almagro is also a very competent player to win. I tried not to focus on his opponent rather I focus myself and my thoughts only to Rafa that he is going to win this match (he must for the record sake of his comeback). And yes, he did in 1 hour and 43 minutes Rafa win the match I clap and almost cried in happiness as he lifted his arm as a sign of victory. In almost 2 hours all the unwanted feelings has been subsided and thanks GOD everything has been back to normal.

Like Rafa I believe that we need time to rest and recuperate and find the solution on how to build ourselves again for our own sake and for the others.


The secret of many a man's success in the world resides in his insight into the moods of men and his tact in dealing with them. - J.G. Holland

Lost in space

Turf: laundry room
Dash: doing laundry



There are times when you want to have a super power like those superheroes who can time travel or just transport yourself to a place where you want to be just for a little while and erase the inevitable moments that you bump. And totally immerse yourself in a beautiful place where it will become your paradise even just for the time being. If only, the feeling can be just one candy away, or just one melted ice cream and poop it is all in place.

If only....



Feelings are hard to express, especially those innate one -- knowing the one involved is close to your heart but let's say everyone encounters this kind of bumps and nevertheless, a feeling of guilt, left a question mark on you. This one question mark leaves a trace and you trail in it to find the answer and resolve it. Because this gives you uneasy feeling and you object it. Yes, you object it to the very core of your being, because you love that person. So, you choose to be powerless, meek, and more understanding even though you merely understand the situation happen to both of you.

A feeling that form a question mark which lead you to know more about yourself, your love ones, and give you the push to be a better person everyday, so you can give more of you without even asking in return for it.


The great blessings of mankind are within us and within our reach; but we shut our eyes, and like people in the dark, we fall foul upon the very thing we search for, without finding it. -- Seneca (7 B.C. - 65 A.D.)

This saves my day

Turf: in my favorite spot
Dash: googling



This is just a quick post. I don't know how to give it an opening? I guess, so many have known Jessica Zafra she is a Filipino writer, and she is one of the great writers (for me) in the country. I've started to read her column in the Woman's Today Magazine when I was still in my primary until her last written column and I could say is "I love all her column" her writing style is superb, you're like seeing the reality while reading it. She is too awesome, she is one of my inspiration while growing up, I want to become a great writer like her, but it comes out that I never get near even to her toenails (you know what I mean?). I have never been as good as she is when it comes to writing ability, but I'm trying. Up to now I'm trying (trying all my best, squeezing all the neurons in my brain that could possibly help improve my writings. I guess, the only good thing to me is I never give up, and I accept the fact that the room for my improvement is still so big.



So that's it, it is almost past 1am when her name suddenly incurred in my mind and I want to google her online site jessicarulestheuniverse but what I typed in the Google search is "Womenagerie", why on earth? while on my mind is on her personal site and another blog site appeared where I read that she come out a book titled 'Womenagerie and Other Tales from the Front' Part 1 and there is Part 2 of it, isn't an awesome surprise for me? While, recollecting the past about her column in Woman's Today and has a slight of this regretful feeling why I thrown out all my The Woman's Today collection magazine then, and without even thinking of saving the copy of her column before I trash it out in the bin. So that, I could ever re-read it a thousand times anytime I wanted to. Anyway enough, of this raving. Finding out that there is a book compilation of her Womenagerie column this saves my day from raving.. And I got a new assignment for myself which is to have a stash of that book from National Bookstore (crossing my finger that NB has the stocks). I really want to have that book, no matter how much sweat will come out of me I'm going to really have that book soon on my hand. Can't wait.

This is all for today, I still have more to share with you I've been thinking to make a travelogue of my humps and bumps in Dubai. Happy weekend.

Wait, there is another site that I want to share with you this is a group I guess teenager writer's whose selling their books online and it seems pretty good to read too and bet you they selling it it for a low price and no shipping fee. If you are a book lover like me and a bit interested for a new new blood writer just visits their sites here.
