Alissa, a 20 year old blogger, fresh nursing graduate, and hobbyist photographer from the Philippines. I am a wallflower who is often on the outside looking in and feels alone in a crowded room but I can be pretty fun and interesting if you’ll get to know me more. I am a daydreamer who adores life simple pleasures. I always try to look at the brighter side of people rather than their negative side. I don’t judge people easily. .

TRUTH
Studies have shown, that, indeed, introverts are more likely than extroverts to express intimate facts about themselves online that their family and friends would be surprised to read, to say that they can express the “real me” online, and to spend more time in certain kinds of online discussions. They welcome the chance to communicate digitally. The same person who would never raise his hand in a lecture hall of two hundred people might blog to two thousand, or two million, without thinking twice. The same person who finds it difficult to introduce himself to strangers might establish a presence online and then extend those relationships into the real world.
lostescapade whispered: 8. Your best friend confesses that he/she has feelings for you more than just friendship. He/she is falling in love with you. What do you (or did you) do/say? :)
Wow that’s tough. I never had a guy friend but as long as I’m single, maybe I should give him a chance since we already know each other. If I like him in a certain way then who knows? Maybe I might also fall for him. You know what they say, great love comes from friendship.

1. What is more difficult for you, looking into someones eyes when you are telling someone how you feel, or looking into someones eyes when they are telling you how they feel?
Looking into someone’s eyes when I tell them how I feel. Listening to what they are saying is easy for me since I’m an understanding person and I’m ready to accept anything they say. What’s hard is expressing my feelings to someone cos sometimes you yourself don’t understand how you feel and you’re scared of telling it to other people. They might use it against you or they might not understand you. So sometimes you have to weigh things and take a risk.
hermusing whispered: 23 :)
23. When was the last time you were nice to someone and did NOT expect anything in return for it?
I do it everyday. Being nice to someone, no matter who they are, I always take time to listen to them. You see I only have few friends in school. I’m very quiet and awkward. I’m not that friendly even if I want to, I’m just shy. So if anyone wants a favor or just wants to talk to me, I always feel great about it knowing that someone needs me. I always do it without expecting something in return. Them knowing that they need me makes me feel special. They don’t know how a simple hello from anyone at my school is already a big deal for me, it always makes my day. :)

Life Is Like A Cup of Coffee
A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life.
Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups—porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive—telling them to help themselves to the coffee.
When all had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: “If you noticed, all the nice-looking expensive cups have been taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress. Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. In most cases, it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went to the best cups…And then you began eyeing each other’s cups.
Now consider this: life is the coffee; the jobs, money, and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain life, and the type of cup we have does not define, nor change the quality of life we live.
Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee. Savor the coffee, not the cups! The happiest people don’t have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.”
The same is true in our lives. Oftentimes, we are concerned with what makes us live rather than with what makes our life worth living.
We work so hard in order to earn so much that we neglect to pause and savor the coffee–that priceless moment to care. You work even on Sundays that you don’t even know what is happening to your children, your husband, your wife. You say there are bills to be paid, credits to settle, that you don’t have time to sit down and enjoy each other’s company. You’re with your family but you are not really present. Moments pass by without you really knowing what happened.
Life is like a cup of coffee. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee. Savor the coffee, not the cups! The happiest people don’t have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything. Live simply. Love generously. Forgive until it hurts. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Live uprightly.
Just An Ordinary Sunday
My mom woke me up this morning, though she doesn’t have to since the heat is already pressing the inside of my skin. The weather is a little extra warm today but we decided to take the long road and go to church outside of town. I’ve never been to this church before, at least that’s what I remembered. People on all sorts of ages flock the plaza and hurriedly went inside the church to find some seats. Unfortunately we were among the unlucky ones who only found a seat in the hotter aisle. I was sweating my butt off, I can’t even understand what the priest was saying. For a moment there, I thought I’d pass out! We didn’t finish the mass cos I couldn’t take it anymore. :(
We had lunch at Shakey’s and we ordered a bunch of lunch for me and a Moroccan salad for my mom. In the middle of the meal, I think 3 power failures occurred. And I thought wow, it really is my lucky day -_-. Anyway I was really hungry and finished the meal shortly. I was looking at my mom eating the salad with disgust. I guess I’m not really a fan of veggies but I gave it a try and I liked it I guess. :)
We went shopping and I bought a cropped top from Penshoppe. One thing I noticed after the breakup, my mom bought me anything I wanted. One reason for letting me shop for clothes is to change my whole wardrobe and give my old clothes to my cousins. We shop almost 4 times a week now. I swear I thought she’s just being nice to me. lol.
I had a short nap in the afternoon. I wouldn’t want to wake up but the heat, my enemy of the day keeps bugging me. So I woke up and found the desktop without my brother in it. I thought this is the right time to blog!
