2018 is 5 Years Ago

 2018 is 5 years ago.


I just realized this today. That's already a half decade. When I was enrolling in CHSM for Senior High, I was with a small close group with no idea that we will be apart and I'll make friends with you. Now, I can't remember their names anymore aside from Shiela who was my classmate since elementary.





This 17-year old young boy is incoming fourth year, and currently applying for an internship program. He had no idea how much phases he has to come through before he witnessed all these. With more or less than a year, I may be seeing my past self as a former student already. That's how fast life could be.

We were together for almost everyday and the group chats were so loud, but now we barely set a day to catch up about life.

It's too hard and regretful to think about how many times I wasn't able to sit with you when you need an ear for your random thoughts at midnights, drink along with wild, fun, calm, or crazy conversations.

As becoming adults now, we are already being consumed by much bigger fears and responsibilities. And maybe that's your another story that I can relate to, once we set our next drink.

Seven Years: this is not a story of us

I will always be fascinated of how I fell in love so deeply with the same guy after 7 years. And just in case you're wondering, I waited for 7 years to have a picture with him 7 months after I manifested for it this year (2023, as of this writing). And guess what? That's a total of 7 pictures being beside each other all happened in a Sunday. And there let me say it, I'm the lucky one when that day alone felt mine. Prologue  End of the dry season of 2016 when I got chickenpox and I wasn't able to attend the first week of my Grade 9 because of it. And I enjoyed that excuse because I always hated attending school, besides I'm not classmates with my first guy crush in high school— Gerald. After a week I was surprised with new people in a classroom composed of more or less than 40 people. I knew some, but we were not that close. The solid friendship I only experienced was during my freshman year (even though I barely speak, at least I felt belong). Back then,...

It's 2025, and It's Blurry So Far

Last update from here was October 2024, well that's almost the last quarter of 2024 but many things have happened throughout that year that I could say... made me feel alive again somehow. I have recovered from my recent resignation in ABS-CBN, I was able to earn well again to support myself and my travel to Hong Kong. If I haven't mention this on my past blog, well, I just purchased my dream lens and a vlogging mic--- which both parts of my plans ever since before I enter the corporate world.  November 24 when I had my first international flight in Hong Kong. It's indeed a different world. Everyone was busy, everything feels so modern. I'm a graduate with honors but I feel so dumb there, and thank God I have my sister to save me all the time. Truly, experiences make you better and smarter, most especially when you are at the streets.  Almost everyday we had to join lunch and dinners with Kuya Rex's family and friends. I've tried Thai cuisine from his restaurant...

2024 Feels Different

It really took me more than 4 months to finally add a new story here. So many things have happened after January. One of those is an opportunity from ABS-CBN Star Magic. All thanks to my SHS classmate, Aira, for referring me.  2024 feels different. Though I tried to connect and pattern it with the past 2 years because two were the best years of my career as a student working freelance. I thought it's going to be the same thing, but I was wrong. While I try to pattern my year to past 2 years, the universe truly misaligned it and brought me into a new path—which is so different and challenging to me. Since January I really find it weird that I barely get client in photography, and was actually planning to launch Sebensu Design Studio as my new 'raket'. I've been doing ads and promos for my photography but it's really 'maalat'.  Lahat ng savings ko pabawas.  So I started praying to God and ask him, what's going to be the next plan? I'm so scared to be d...
