Not in the mood
to study. But I keep reminding myself that I’m working towards a higher goal - it’s not just about aiming for that 3.5-3.75 GPA anymore; it’s about working towards a career that I’ll be fully embracing in two years down the road.
I’m not lazy, not distracted. I just need to push through this minor slump and find some motivation to keep up the determination that has...
Worried
that because of recent events it’s pushed me further away from you
that you’re beginning to think of me more than what we are
about what today means
that I’m slacking way too much, especially lately
that you’re not being honest with me
BUT
I’m still all for this
it doesn’t have to mean anything more than what it is
we can still kick it like we always do...
Never asks for much,
ivyjfb:
which kind of makes the smallest things matter the most.
Yeah, this is me. Never asking for much. [Insert something to soothe the transition]. Always wanting to make other people happy. Willing to hurt so that others don’t.. And after numerous talks, and hearing the pros and cons (mostly pros, ptl) I realize that I’m all for this. I’m gonna fight for this.
Keeping my...
Now
that it’s out there - I hope you’re thinking about it.

I forgot.
I had this brilliant Tumblr post ready to be written.. and then I forgot. Oh well. I’ll probably remember days from now. Although the chances of that is slim to none. Because I learned that a person’s memory decreases by 50% the next day. Well, not a person’s memory per say, but their recollection of words spoken, intimate details, and such. At least for the majority of us,...
The little things in life.
I found my favorite childhood cereal today in the school cafeteria. It made a bad moment turn into an extremely great day. I seriously thought that they discontinued making Berry Kix after I had turned 8 because I never saw it sitting on a shelf after that. You don’t understand just how much I was squealing with joy (on the inside) when I found this sitting on the shelf. I grabbed 7...

Realization.
People have always said that being a nursing student separates you from your crowd. So my “crowd” refers to my family away from my immediate family. I always knew that one day it was going to come down to something like that. You know, not being able to spend as much time as I’d like to with them. Like sitting with my fellow nursing students reflecting on the class lectures or...
Multiple you's.
You. You’re still the same, but things have changed. Dynamics have shifted. Glad to know you’re still around though.
You. I can barely look you in the eye, especially when you smile. Such a stunning smile. But it’s chill, you’re chill. It’s cool.
You. Suck it up. You know what? Never mind. Ignore me all you want. But it doesn’t change the fact that I still...
To Whom It May Concern II:
nikkitino:
Getting through life by going through the motions won’t cut it. Someday, at some point, you will encounter a void that you won’t know how to fill.
Avoiding relapse
And I have to say that I’m doing pretty well for myself. Of course, I have been so absorbed with my textbooks that I haven’t had time to really see you or talk to you. But I LOVE this time apart. It truly is comforting. To know that I’m not worried about you anymore. Don’t get me wrong - I still wish you well and I hope our friendship improves. But I’m not worried...
Photos under 5MB.
Just because it’s easier - it’s a Tumblr requirement. And I know I’m a day late on posting photos, but hey. At least I’m getting it done.
Leaving Ontario Airport at 6AM.
The Great Buddha in Kamakura, Japan.
At another angle.
Burning incense.
This baby boy was so cute; he just wanted to be carried.
Riding to the beach.
Lanterns.
One of the many...
Christmas Break Preview.
I decided that I’m gonna post up some pictures from Christmas Break this weekend. I should get the chance Friday night. But don’t expect much - they’re mostly touristy shots.
Mmkay, back to the study grind.
New Year's events and thoughts.
It’s been 1/1/2011 for me two days in a row; two thumbs up for flying on the first.
Should have never stopped eating at Mark’s house for New Year’s. There was endless food. I’m not exactly sure why I insisted on leaving right after midnight - all I had to do was pack.
Ended up watching Die Another Day with Vic and Jason. Commercials stretched out the film to three hours....
