See You Soon Paris!

Sunday, March 21, 2010

Aaaah I love Paris. My first time in Paris felt so surreal. I super enjoyed Paris. No partying or major shopping involved even. You can already get by with their Hop On, Hop Off buses. It was such a joy for me to just walk around and enjoy the sights. Albeit I think our plush and uber comfy hotel was such a huge plus and largely contributed to our Paris experience. Heehee. Nevertheless, mababaw lang talaga kaligayahan ko. Simple joys it is. That's me to you. It's one of the few places that I seriously want to visit again. I thought to myself that someday I want to go back with the one I love or if I get lucky, sana with the love of my life. That is, if he still exists or if there's one for me in this lifetime. Okay fine, cheesy na kung cheesy. Hehe. If given the chance, I want to spend my honeymoon in Paris. I know it's going to be a long shot but yeah it has always been a dream of mine. Libre naman mangarap diba? Hehe. So...it was such a happy surprise our Paris trip is pushing through. No I'm not getting married. Well not yet anyway. I'm still praying for Mr. Right. Haha. Just the same, I still can't wait for Paris. I think it has been eons ago since I was excited about something. I think it's also a good time to be away from everything and hopefully start forgetting. So yey to Paris!

All Good Things Come to an End

You've lost that loving feeling. And I'm starting to lose it too. It's just kind of hard to miss somebody who you don't know anymore. You're the best and worst thing that's ever happened to me. No regrets. It was really really good while it lasted. It scares me to think that I might eventually forget how we used to be and that all will be forgotten just like that. Maybe it doesn't mean anything now. I don't know. It's doesn't matter anymore. I guess things happen for a reason. Tears eventually fade and one day everything will be exactly how it's supposed to be. It scares me to start over again but maybe this is for the best; letting you go. "It took a while for me to understand what love is,  but it'll take forever to forget what it was like." I gotta learn to walk away and trust that everything will happen at just the right time, at just the right place, with just the right person.

"Love isn't love until you give it away, so give it wings and let it go, if it's meant to be it will find a way to fly right back to you."

Today could've been our 2nd. I guess maybe God has other plans for us. I pray some day, somehow we're gonna make it all right. And that we're gonna be alright, I hope. 

Out of Touch

Why does a week suddenly feel like months already? So yeah, it's been over a week. I think I'm starting to get it now. I have to stop caring. For real, this time. It's better this way. It's the only way for me to not get hurt anymore.

Angels Cry

I shouldn't have walked away

I would've stayed if you said

We could've made everything OK

But we just

Threw the blame back and forth

We treated love like a sport

The final blow hit so low

I'm still on the ground

I couldn't have prepared myself for this fall

Shattered in pieces curled on the floor

Super natural love conquers all

Remember we used to touch the sky

And

Lightning don't strike

The same place twice

When you and I said goodbye

I felt the angels cry

True love's a gift

We let it drift

In a storm

Every night

I feel the angels cry

C'mon babe can't our love be revived

Bring it back and we goin' to make it right

I'm on the edge just tryin' to survive

As the angels cry

I thought we'd be forever and always

You were serenity

You took away the bad days

Didn't always treat you right

But it was OK

I do somethin' stupid

And you still stay with me

But you can only go for so long

Doing the one you claim to love wrong

Before too much is enough

You look up

Find your love gone

And

We were so good together

How come we could not weather

This storm and just do better

Why did we say goodbye

'Cause lightning don't strike

The same place twice

When you and I said goodbye

I felt the angels cry

True love's a gift

We let it drift

In a storm

Now every night

I feel the angels cry

C'mon babe can't our love be revived

Bring it back and we goin' to make it right

I'm on the edge just tryin' to survive

As the angels cry

Baby I'm missin' you

Don't allow love to lose

We gotta ride it through

I'm reaching for you

Baby I'm missin' you

Don't allow love to lose

We gotta ride it through

I'm reaching for you

Lightning don't strike

The same place twice

When you and I said goodbye

I felt the angels cry

True love's a gift

But we let it slip

In a storm

Every night

I feel the angels cry

Oh babe, the angels cry

Phew! Thank God I survived my 1st L25 experience. So who is L25? L25 is a special task force lang naman comprised of some of HSBC's top honchos. In other terms, the creme de la creme, cream of the crop, best of the best. Pressure?! Of course! Haha. It felt like I was back in college again defending my thesis in front of a panel or back in AIG's Camp David doing a presentation to the Regional bosses in Hong Kong and afterwards, the MANCOM in Manila. Yikes I remember again why this whole corporate ladder climb just isn't my thing. I'm so not fit for this kind of stuff. I'd rather live a normal and boring office life, hehe. Life's more simple that way. Now bakit ba kasi ako nagpaka-bibo kanina? It's so out of my character, really. I'm usually kebs about everything. So ayun...to the principal's office tuloy ako! Tsk. Oh well. If any, it was a learning experience. Once in a while, it can be good training also for me albeit it was so intimidating and nerve wracking. I have to learn how to confidently deal with top management at some point, right? Nonetheless, I try to absorb as much as I can from the whole experience and learn from the knowledge and wisdom of some of the industry's best. O diba! Leveling up it is.

Arrogant and narcissistic guys are such a HUGE turn off. Ugh. Given that I may have my faults too, he still shouldn't have acted the way he did. His actions would've been more forgivable if he really was as good as he projects himself to be. Problem is, he's all bark and no bite. Puro salita. Puro hangin. Puro pasikat. Wala naman siya binatbat. Panay palakad-lakad lang sa office. He's not man enough to do all the heavy lifting himself or maybe (1) he just doesn't have the balls or (2) brains or (3) perhaps a combination of both. I would've helped you right away IF ONLY you were NICE. Read: N-I-C-E. That's all I'm asking. Can you actually blame me for not wanting to help you?! If you don't like how I do things then it's not my problem anymore. I have the prerogative to do as I wish. You cannot dictate my work. And if that's not acceptable to you then you might as well save us all the trouble and do it yourself.  / End of Rant.
