Dear Maje

Today I woke up feeling lonely in every aspect. I feel alone. I feel broken. 

A little backstory: My family lives in California and basically I, live here in the Philippines in this home four walls and a door well atleast I'm trying to make it a home for myself. But I can't. And the only human who kept me in my despair was gone. 

I pushed him away.

Because that's what I'm good at. I push people away. Away from me.

With all this, I felt heavy and I don't have someone to talk to. I can't talk to my parents or brothers cause I don't want them to worry about me. Same thing with the guy I pushed away. Why? because I broke up with him 4 days before our 5th anniversary. If I only have someone to talk to. Who will not put judgement on every actions I did. Who will listen to all my anxiety in life.

Now back to reality: It's been a year since the last time I go to church, oh wait I think it was since my brother left me for USA, I used to go to church with him but since he's not here I don't go anymore. I wanted too but anxiety attacks me.

Today is Sunday(Yes I update you guys on Sunday), and I woke up pretty late because who would want to wake up early with all this feeling? As I start my usual day, I opened my laptop and open my music app. And start my music sesh with some praising songs, I told to myself atleast 5 praising songs.



I was singing the first song I've chosen Mighty to save by Jeremy Camp, I don't know what happened to me but while I was singing it flashback the days when me and my brother used to go to church, holding back my tears and stopped myself from singing until the song ended.

2nd song was Lead me to the cross by Hillsong United, again I sang the song with all my heart this time I can't hold back the tears anymore, I allowed myself to cry. It's like he was saying I'm with you, you can talk to me. I cried my heart out and pray, I knew in that moment he's the only one who can mend my broken heart. I asked Lord to hug me, I badly need one. I cried until I felt better and much lighter.

So for you who's feeling the same thing I'm going through right now, always remember that GOD is always with you, cast your burden unto him for he will never leave you and forsake you.

Blessed Sunday to everyone.

To be honest I've never been a fan of any poetry book since their words are way too deep I easily get drown, this might be the first poetry book that I purchased and believe it or not I fell inlove. I got it September last year but only read it by early this January while waiting for my video to render and as expected I got drown not with how deep the words are, but for how relatable each poem was. I can't believed that it took me 3 months before I picked this book up and start reading it.

Let's talk about this book cover, I actually get this one because of the book cover. It was black and white, nothing more, nothing less. But wait as the saying goes Don't judge the book by it's cover and my brother is not a pig! hahahaha (kidding aside) this book was definitely worth to read aside from it's minimalist cover.

I can definitely say that this book is all about feels (if that's even a proper english term), Filipino millennials can call it HUGOT book ( For my non-filipino readers: hugot means a phrase or sentence that is too deep, mostly all the words/conversation will lead into deep facts about love and relationship.) But don't get me wrong, this book is not only about love, it tackles also some abuses & feminism (hello girl power!).

This book is actually addicting to the point that I can't put it down not until I'm done with the last page, that is why I ended up finishing it for an hour. For an hour I feel vulnerable and thought that finally I found a book who understand what I'm going through right now. It was somehow talking to me. Let me share to you one of my favorite poem from this book. 


It was a 3 liner poem but it was hitting you so much. This is one of my favorite lines from Rupi Kaur, as much as I want to post all of my favorites I don't want to be spoiler on what's inside of this book. Let's help Rupi Kaur to earn with her works.

That completes my blog for today btw, my schedule in uploading my videos on my youtube channel is every Mondays and Thursdays while updating blog every Saturdays.

It's been a sickful (if that's even a term hahaha) year-ender for me, all throughout December I'd been suffering from my on - off flu that is why I haven't post anything.

But first let me greet everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

In my previous blogsite I've done this 2017 goals that I will looked back supposedly at the end of the year but since I deleted it I don't have any reference now hahaha but I do believe I've somehow tick some of my 2017 goals like my 1st out of the country trip and learn how to drive that is all I can remember so far. By doing this I can know if I'm becoming a better version of myself.

This year I wanted some realistic goals so no jumping into cliff or doing a skydiving I'll reserve that for a lifetime goals *wink*

Here are my Goals:

  1. Learn atleast one new language. I'm always fascinated with other language such as french, mandarin and spanish since 2014, I even considered on enrolling myself to a school just to achieve this goal, hopefully this year I can do it now.
  2.  2 out of the country trips. I'm a wanderer soul and my 1st out of the country went well so I want to challenge myself today.
  3. Save money. 5000 per month in my savings account and I'll do invisible 100 php and put it in my piggy bank everyday. Hopefully at the end of year I'll have enough funds for travel.
  4. Be Punctual. I don't know what happened to me but I was never been late in any of my appointment when I was a student. But when I got jobs me being late was my worst enemy. It came to the point that the only thing they can blame me is for being late but my work flow was excellent, no more late for 2018.
  5. Read atleast 5 books. 2017 was been a busy year for me hopping from 3 jobs within one year was not easy, I came to a point where I always brought books and put it in my shelves and I didn't touch it. Books are meant to be red, so this year is the time.
  6. 1000 subscribers in my YOUTUBE channel. This will motivate me on producing a better content and to update regularly. So far my Dear Maje channel has 101 subbies.
  7. Have a 2nd degree or Do finish my Masters. Never stop learning was one of my motto in life therefore let's make my life miserable I guess hahahaha.
  8. Be more organize. My life need some organization skills, I will track down all my expenses and be more responsible on things.
  9. Go to church on Sunday. Last year I can't remember I went to church maybe that is the reason why I'm in bad shape but this year I will come back and praise my God.
  10. Get Fit. 2017 was totally a wake up call for me to get fit, dresses are no longer fitting me so this time no more excuses. 
Hopefully I can achieve atleast half  of my goals this year, let's all see if I'll reach it by the end of the year. I'll make another update on this by that time happens.

Bathingsuit: Hapeejonee on Instagram
Sunglass: Sunnies studios

It was raining cats and dogs on our last day, I woke up around 6am ( yes ang lakas maka-tita's of manila ) with a cold room and a bit of thunderstorm, although I know there will be a scattered rain for that day my mind was at peace thinking it will stop later since it was too early I went back to snuggle my froggy.

But around 10:30 am it was still raining, this time I was skeptical on everything, I keep on checking my weather update if the sun will shine today. I was also praying that time to let us enjoy our last day.

11:00 am, we decided to go forth and let's continue the adventure whether it rains or not. But as we leave our hotel room the raining subside from wet to dry drizzle which was totally ok for us who do not have an umbrella. Good thing our hotel is near at MRT station, we run as fast as we can and headed to SENTOSA which was sunny thank goodness.


You can try a lot of things in SG, but for us who have limited time and adventure seekers we decided to try this Adventure Cove Waterpark. Our main reason why we choose this waterpark is because of their gigantic slides which we don't have (as of speaking) here in the Philippines. 

We booked our ticket thru klook which is very convenient cause we don't need to fall in line. All we need to do was to print out our ticket to an A4 size bond paper and scan the barcode directly at your preferred tourist spot/park. I believe you dont have to print it in A4 size, you can actually use your phone and download the ticket, they will sent to you over email but just to be sure (the tita in me was working effectively here hahahaha) I printed it out.



We instantly fell inlove with this park, due to all extreme activities are really hitting our expectations, plus you can do snorkeling, swim along with fishes, manta ray and a lot more. If you are exhausted you can relax in their cabanas.


Here are my favorite extreme rides:


ALL!  



I love all rides that adventure cove waterpark has to offer. I wish they open here in the Philippines. Kung baga saten walang tapon! lahat panalo.

If you are looking for a photo of extreme rides as much as I want to take my camera with me, cameras are not allowed when you are trying their slides due to safety reasons, you can bring the camera but you will leave it once you hopped in the floating device and the person-in-charge are not liable if you loss your camera. I decided to put my camera down, locked it in my locker and enjoy this once in a lifetime experience.


After that we went back to our hotel and pack our bags, we still have time for our last minute shopping for pasalubongs and such. By the time you are reading this we already went back home. Thank you so much for stopping by until next travel blog.

Knife. Blade. Rope
"It's not painful, do it" my mind said.

Knife. Blade. Rope
"Everything is gonna be alright, do it" my heart said.

Knife. Blade. Rope
I'm sad, no scratch that I'm beyond sad. Depress I guess?

Knife. Blade. Rope
I feel shallow,  I feel empty.

Knife. Blade. Rope
I was laughing but underneath that is me, screaming for help.

Knife. Blade. Rope
I talked to people but none of them cared. Everybody has own burden to carry and mine was needed to carried alone.

Knife. Blade. Rope

And it all ended here-

What I wore:

Crop Top Polo Shirt: Manila Trend Setter's Bazzar

Ripped Jeans: Forever21

Fur Slides: H & M

Bag: Couch

Watch: IWatch

Sunglasses: Sunnies studio

Ring: Pandora



One way to open this new category in my blog is by showing how much I love PINKs'.

But to set the record straight, I do not wear Pink all the time. My closet consist of pretty much monochromatic colors and the only pop up colors I have in my closet is my Pink clothes, so if you are expecting for a red-blue hue colors no I don't wear that or maybe I should try one.

On my day 1 in SG I opted with this crop top polo that you need to tie a knot in the middle, this tie a knot in the middle makes a huge comeback in fashion scene nowadays, plus it makes my breast looks bigger (charot).

I paired it with this ripped jeans that has net stockings on the ripped area. I think I will abuse using this pants hahahaha.

The only downside on this outfit was my PINK FUR SLIDES. Ang sakit nya mga besh, I think I fractured my bones using this slides but in the name of #OOTD I manage to wear it (tiis-ganda nga lang).


All in all I'm beyond happy wearing this because there is something with color Pink that makes me feel confident and *ehem* pretty. (charot not charot) lol

i. Learn to say NO. I had to realized it late that not every opportunity needs to be taken specially if you are not comfortable doing it nor you are not happy. No I can't do this. No, I don't like. No, I don't need to explain why I'm saying No to you.

ii. People will throw shade on you. You cannot please everybody indeed but never let these people define or affect who you really are.

iii. Never settle for less. I know it was scary but trust me you can do it.

iv. Not everything you love will love you back, *hello crush life* I know it sucks but that doesn't mean that you are not lovable it only means that God is still preparing something better, you just have to wait.

v. Leave the past behind. Do not let the pain and hurt to take over. Never allow the demons of yesterday to destroy the beauty you have today. Never close your door because you've been broken before instead use that as your motivation.

vi. Avoid toxic people. If you are in a relationship or friendship and you find yourself spending more time on crying out of sadness or arguing with them, leave them. Toxic people are dangerous look for someone who will laugh out loud with you.

vii. Love yourself. That is so important. Love your birthmark, the shape of your face, the color of your skin, the nose that you think is flat. Learn to love yourself at 3AM when all you can think is scary monsters hiding underneath your bed or at 7AM when you wake up cranky. Learn to love yourself because you are you and you will never change.
