How stressed are you?

The pictures below are used to test the stress level a person can handle. The slower the picture moves, the better your ability of handling stress. Alleged criminals that were tested see them spinning around madly. However, senior citizens and kids see them standing still.

How do you see them?

I made it happen.

I have never believed in luck or destiny or fate or feng shui or whatever old beliefs my parents and grandparents have taught me. Although sometimes they do coincide, I believe that when they did, they were just that - plain coincidences. In whatever goal we aspire,we always have to strive to do something to have it. Everything is in to our hands to make things happen.

The last couple of months have been crazy busy. Life, work and love all caught up with me that I don't even know which is which, which is not to say I'm complaining. With all these blessings, I can only thank whoever is above making these happen for me. I so feel the love.

Life. I just moved to my own house. Yes, my own house. My new home. A year ago, I didn't dream of owning a house. A cozy room of my own is enough. I didn't want to waste my time and money on the responsibility of owning a house. But things happen in your life when you're bound to make decisions that will lead to life-changing changes. Having my own house is one of those. A series of things happened and the next thing I knew, I was house-hunting. After a couple of weeks, I found the house I wanted. A couple of months later, I am working my ass packing my things and moving into a new place. The best thing so far is planning and doing all the decorating. The worst is being broke.

Love. After all that I've been through, I never expected to meet someone again and end up loving him dearly. (naks!) I never expected there's still someone as kind and loving and thoughtfull and caring as he can be. I never expected to fall in love again. Then again,
I never do things the way it's expected to be. I can only hope now this will work.

Work. The busiest of 'em all. My last five summer weekends were spent working at the office. How boring can summer be? Still, work is work. Gotta do what we gotta do.

So it's down to the end of September. Getting so used to life at home.
Getting some time to breath at work. Getting all the love.

I made it happen.

ignore tomorrow

Eversince I had my birthdays away from my family, I have never been a fan of the day. I always can't wait for the day to end. Tomorrow is not going to be different. As much as I am thankful that I had just lived another year and is still alive to enjoy another year or month or day or minute or second for that matter, I just want the day to pass and move on to the normal days. As much as I thought I've been through all the drama life could offer, something comes up. Still have too much drama.

My birthday always reminds me how lonely and alone I am. It still does.
