November Ramble

Published by Justine

At this point I can’t even keep up with time anymore. It’s moving too fast. Day in day out, it feels like I have no time for myself! I think I a job with a really flexible time schedule would be great, or something which is has 4-day work week (I wish). In addition to living outside of the city, traffic is an extreme bitch. I’m 22 and I still have no definite life plan. I need to find something which can take me away from fear of the everyday demons that try to attack. I feel like I’m not meant to be in a mundane job but imagining a mobile job seems like it’s stressful. It seems like life is harder when you have a lot of choices in life. Lack of choices would suck too, so where do we go from here? I’m totally rambling my thoughts. By the end of this year I’m going to make it a point to figure out what I really want in life and why it’s so …

Two Peas in Singapore

Published by Justine

I just came back from my short but so awesomely sweet Singapore trip with one of my best girlfriends, Novella. We’ve been planning to have a trip ever since we both graduated last February. We went to Perth, Australia with our families for graduation but we decided we needed to go somewhere just the both of us. Lots of suggestions came up. Bali, back to the Philippines, Thailand or any fun budget destinations then up until a month ago when we got together quickly we decided to go to Singapore instead. It was totally shotgun, and with super cheap tickets we decided to give it a go. I go to Singapore a couple of times a year and I never tire of it. Fast forward a month later, we were off to our 3 day mini holiday. With her job and mine, it was quite difficult to ask for a longer vacation but we took whatever we could get. We pretty much knew Singapore already and Universal Studios and hanging out and having some girl …

Still Wise

Two days ago (Friday) I had my wisdom tooth taken out. It’s been bothering me for years. After a few days and a few painkillers it would just go away but last few weeks have been hell. My tonsils and gums would take turns in swelling so I finally gave in and went to the dentist. I’ve been having trouble eating and swallowing and it was killing me. He suggested to pull my left wisdom teeth because they’ve been causing too much pain already and not in the right position. Friday came and it was freaky. The minute I sat into the dentist chair I held my phone in my hand tweeting every experience I felt to keep my mind off it. When the dentist injected the anaesthesia into my gums I just started shaking uncontrollably. I don’t know if that was one of the effects but I couldn’t stop shaking. He then performed the procedure. Pulling the upper wisdom tooth went by like a breeze because it wasn’t a problem. The lower tooth however, was …

Adding Salt to the Wound

I took one of them color quizzes again, and the results surprised me as always. But from the many I’ve tried before.. this has got to be the most accurate as of late. I guess it’s also due to the fact that I haven’t taken any of these lately. Your Existing Situation Needs excitement and constant stimulation. Willingly participates in activities that are thrilling and offer adventure. Your Stress Sources – since I don’t have a relationship I’m viewing this as my relationship with the people around me and maybe the world in general “Unhappy in her current situation or relationship, but is unwilling to change things due to her need for acceptance and belonging. Refuses to be seen as weak and although she is resistant to give too much to the relationship, she stays committed in order to feel the attachment. The situation depresses and irritates him, causing restlessness and impatience. She is seeking some sort of escape from the situation either physically or mentally, which affects her ability to concentrate.” Your Restrained Characteristics …

Usual Setup

Published by Justine

It was quite unfortunate that I didn’t have internet at home for a month. I had to rely on office internet to catch up on news and everything, and thanks to my phone I could still be on top of my social networking accounts without having to feel like I fell down a black hole. The bad thing about this internet at home is that the access point signal doesn’t reach my room because it’s at the end of the house, so I do my internet stuff in my sister’s room coz it’s the nearest and she’s got this humongous table and a comfortable chair.. and I don’t worry about having to lose sleep because I can limit myself with internet usage. My setup as of last night. Candies and gum belongs to my sister, tumblr on the screen, iPod plugged and phone on standby. The table is really super big, but I couldn’t capture that.
