Life can seem unbearable at times, but don't let it keep you down. Meditate on God's goodness, talk to Him, and know that He hears you. When life knocks you to your knees, you're in a good position to pray.

Express, Not Impress
I've been surprised when I visited my blog again. It's been a while since I last took a peek in this space of mine because I was so busy (I'd probably be giving an account of this later) that I didn't even have time to check who's visiting and who's tagging. Pagtingin ko, may mga bagong names sa tagboard ko! Tuwa talaga ko, promise ^_^. I also miss visiting the page of my blogging friends. I guess I really have been gone for a while, for din-din and kendi have already thought I'm on hiatus. ^_^
'Lam nyo friends, I used to make it a point to have this blog updated with the thought that people are reading this from time to time so they are expecting for a regular update, and also to impress other bloggers with my thoughts and to fish a lot of comments from readers. I was so enthusiastic then, being driven only by that reason, which of course caused me to have writer's block most of the time. Sabi nga dun sa blog entry na nabasa ko from Rex, you're a certified blog addictus if you've been thinking of what to write in your blog from time to time and yes I admit, I became a blog addict when I started. Kasi I started out this thing with the aim of practising html skills lang so nung una nga, panay pa ang palit ko ng template. Hahaha! Natatawa ko sa sarili ko pag naalala ko yun, kasi most of the time, puro pa-cute lang ang laman ng blog ko noon.
But the time came when I got tired of it. Kakasawa din pala. Nung tumagal, sobrang dalang ko nang mag-update, na nagkaroon pa ng time na umaabot ng 1-2 months bago ko maglagay ng post. Pero ayos lang din, kasi hindi naman nawala blog ko. I now write to express, not to impress.
Pahabol pala, sobrang hirap din ako nun kasi pinipilit ko talagang puro English ang sulat ko sa blog ko. ^_^ Eh kesa naman magpilit akong magsulat ng english kahit di ko naman feel, mapapahiya lang ako sa mga barok at wrong grammar ko. Hindi yata ako naka-impress nun, napahiya pa ko. Basta ngayon, mas-importante yung maisulat ko dito kung ano talagang laman ng isip ko, kahit sa paano pang paraan.
Maraming salamat sa mga bumibisita at naglalaan ng oras na mag-iwan ng message sa tagboard ko at mag-comment sa post ko. Naappreciate ko talaga ang mga bagay na yun. It really feels good to know that some people care to read and know your thoughts, diba? Much more if they share their own opinion. Sa ganitong paraan, nafi-feel ko nagkakaroon ako ng kaibigan, kahit sandali lang sila bibista, at kapag mas nagiging mabuti pa, nadagdag pa sa list ng blogs na madalas ko na ding pinupuntahan ^_^.
Naisip ko ngayon, mage-evolve din pala ang pamamaraan ko ng pagsulat sa blog na to. Mas naging totoo na ang mga laman. Mas naging ako. Yun nga lang, medyo madalang ako magsulat, pero masasabi kong mas may halaga na ang mga naisusulat ko ngayon, dahil wala na kong alalahanin na ipakita sa mga sinusulat ko kung ano lang ang gusto kong makita ng mga tao, o kung ano yung gusto kong maging ako sa mga nagbabasa. Ang hirap nun, sa totoo lang, kasi kung hindi ka naman talaga ganun, plastik ang dating. Noon, parang feeling ko lagi akong nagsusulat ng essay for submission pero ngayon, parang diary ko na lng 'to, or parang open letter.
Salamat talaga sa mga bumibista. Pasensya na kung hindi ako ganun kadalas mag-update dito, kasi I'm also keeping a journal notebook, na sa ngayon eh di ko pa din nasusulatan ^_^. Sobrang busy talaga. Pero again, thank you sa inyong lahat.

aawww.. na-special mention pa dito oh... tats naman ako.. heheheh. ganun din ako when i started to blog, puro ka-artehan lang at papalit-palit din ng template.. hehehe. i guess, lahat ng bloggers eh dumaan sa ganung stage. parang pag-dadalaga/pag-bibinata. heheheh. ang maganda din kasi sa pag-blo-blog aside sa parang may sarili kang diary/shrink e nakaka-hanap ka din ng mga online friends from all around the world :-P na pag-nag-tatagal na eh hindi na simpleng online friends, nawawala na yung online, parang normal na friends na kayo. (ang gulo noh? heheh.) Compared sa mga forums or chatting, sa palagay ko mas ok yung mga taong nakikila via blog, kasi you get to really know the real them, basta.. parang ganun.. heheheh.
ingat ka lage! wag mashadong paka-busy.. mahal na mag-kasakit! heheheh. sounds familiar?? hahaha!
have fun & always be safe!;)

weeh... ako rin, special mention. hehehe. i totally understand, te. it's just that some of us are atat na atat to write something during summer kaya yon, bloghop ng bloghop. hehehe. wla kc magawa sa bahay. buti ka bz. kami bored. lol.
I don't intend this to be my life's chronicles but I might write some of my experiences here.
Even so, everything that's written in here are either products of my excessive contemplation, or just plainly, pure boredom.
In any case, I still try to write as sensible as possible, for what I really intend to do and I hope is achieved in every writing,
is to impart or share some of the things I learn and sometimes, some struggles in life. Don't expect all seriousness in everything in here though.
In short, this blog is my outlet. My noted thoughts and reflections.
About Me
Name: Goldi
Home: Pasay City, Philippines
Birthday: June 2
Hobbies & Interests: Jesus, music, books, journals, internet, computers, tech stuff, gadgets * sound tripping, singing, playing musical instruments (I know guitar and flute recorder, I just wish I can play them well), watching movie with a tub of popcorn drizzled with melted butter (yum!), reading * observing, pondering, reflecting, learning * laughing or making people laugh (though I'm not good at it) and laugh with them, make people smile, or just listen to their stories. Minsan, trip ko lang din mang-asar =p
About Me: I'm a simple, idealistic but down-to-earth, & friendly person. Quiet most of the time, but friendly enough to have a nice talk (or even a hearty laugh) with anyone. "I myself no longer live, but Christ lives in me. So I live my life in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me." Galatians 2:20 NLT
Principles I live by:
"Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart." -Psalm 37:4
"If people talk negatively about you, live in such a way that no one will believe them."
"God is a God of happy endings. If you're not yet happy, it's not yet the end."
"It's not what we know but what we do that counts." -Our Daily Bread
"It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." -Dumbledore, Harry Potter 2
"Girls should assume that until a guy expresses interest, they're just friends." -J. Harris, Boy Meets Girl
"True love doesn't just wait; it plans." -Boy Meets Girl
"Eros will have naked bodies; friendship naked personalities." -C.S. Lewis
"Ideals are like stars; we will not succeed in touching them with our hands but by following them, as the sea faring man in the ocean, we will reach our destiny." -J. Harris, Boy Meets Girl
