Nayn.

Nothing new, still couldn’t sleep with tons of things coursing through my mind. I wish my brain and my emotions would just calm the f down. I need a break, a holiday away from the pressures and responsibilities of adulthood.

.

Anyway, share ko lang. I usually avoid yung mga ka-negahan posts sa fb but I came across a post and a comment from fb friends and got so annoyed. Let’s just say siya yung typical example of “di marunong lumingon sa pinanggalingan“. Masyadong mataas ang nalipad ni girl. Nakakahiya naman sakanya. Pero in fairness, yung kayabangan niya may mga realisations na naibigay sakin.

  • It’s okay to be proud of your achievements. Siyempre pinaghirapan mo yan eh so go, flaunt it as long as you want. Pero yung tipong you belittle other people’s options or choices just to push na you’re better because anjan ka, nakaka imbyernalize! Just stop.
  • The harsh reality of life is, kahit nasaan ka pa: Pinas, UK, US, Canada, Ireland, Australia, Middle East – lahat yan may kanya-kanyang struggle at preference; lahat may pros and cons. Just because it worked for you, doesn’t mean it will work for everyone else. Case to case basis yan siszt. Kanya-kanyang swerte sa buhay, kanya-kanyang diskarte. Mapalad ka if you found prosperity sa kung saan ka man ngayon. But it doesn’t automatically mean na it’s horrible sa other places/countries na hindi mo napuntahan. Na you would laugh at other available options and insist na it’s all crap.

Hayyy gazzit moko. Char!

Despite my on and off cringing while browsing through timehop reminding me of my jeje days, it still makes me smile knowing I would eventually find useful gems like this:

I think I may have done so much fire fighting of tragedies and bad days the last few months that I didn’t even have a proper moment to bend, break and grieve for what has gone. The timing couldn’t be more right for this quote to remind me to stop being on autopilot mode and be human again.

Lamyerda Diaries: Summer outing @ Brighton

The transition is real! When we all arrived in the UK almost 6 years ago, all we ever did in the first year was of course work,  drink and have fun! A lot of laughs, rants and even tears in between but I’m proud of how this friendship turned into family. And as we continue to grow and evolve, the gang is also getting bigger as we are joined by cute little angels!  Let’s do this trip every year, yeah?
