Random . December 2017

Hello favorite month! It's not going to be easy I hope I will not hate you. 

What a way to start my favorite month. 

Another one. It's so frustrating. 

Thank you dad's friends I wish my dad was able to reminisce with all of you. 

Some people doesn't really know how to be sneaky. 

Why do you have to be so shady. 

I'll get to see college friends in 10 days! :D

If you are a close friend, you know that we shouldn't talk on comment section most especially if it's something personal. You know how to contact me why you make it look like you don't know. 

This is a place where patience is tested. 

Another place where my personal patience is being tested. I just have to whisper, f. 

I'm waiting for you to argue with me but why are you choosing not to? Distance is nothing on this high tech Era. 

Left for a quick me-time in the city. 

I was able to squeeze a work while on the road! Yay. So proud. 

Last minute shopping, success. 

I knew it will not rain. Why did I still brought my umbrella. Lol

Thanks home court, I'll see you again soon.  

Let it be a distraction in my head. 

It's just too frustrating when it's already obvious but still you chose to not understand. 

You're definitely one of them. Lol 

Poor kid. 

Recalling all of it makes me cringe and it's becoming another batch of nightmare. 

Thank you home court for the comfort despite of me being stressed with my work load baggage. 

Huhu. I can see signs that I'm about to break soon. it's just too much lately. 

Yeah I know, I don't want to complain but it's pretty draining. 

Unfortunately, everything is still not enough. 

Catching up with some college friends that I haven't seen since 2010 / 2011. 

Such a blast out of town weekend trip with college friends. 

Frustration to the highest level. 

Still surviving even there are times that I'm about to break. 

Test of patience and I'm about to burst. 

You don't have any idea what I can do from midnight to 4am. 

You think you can stop me? Of course, not. 

Merry Christmas. 

It's just the 26th and f I'm starting to get emotional. 

I think I should go offline until after the 27th. 

I want to write something but dang, emotionally shit at the moment. Too fragile. Haha. Happy birthday, self! I'm so proud of how we survived 2017. 

Thank you, M.  

I was able to survive today after all the tasks. 

Lol. I was busy af that I wasn't able to get online and thank everyone who greeted me so I just liked all of the greeting. Hahaha but I appreciate it, thank you. :D

Fam bam.  

I may not be able to sum up this year in one post since I don't have time for it already but thank you for another set of roller-coaster ride in life 2017. 

Thankful for everything. 

Hello ‎2018!

Quick Getaway

About last weekend.

A post shared by Aivrin Villamayor (@aeivryn) on Dec 22, 2017 at 8:57pm PST

It's not really a getaway but it was planned months ago since a friend in college was about to get married.

It was a busy month (geez for all the post I'm doing busy is one of my always reason) lol

To be honest, even I'm already sure of going, I was about to back out last minute and I'm happy that I didn't back out.

If I was about to somewhere, I always tell myself that I shouldn't regret that decision most especially if it was full of fun. So much debate on my head whether to push this through or not but one thing is that, I wasn't able to see the people on the picture for 6-7 years!

I was nervous at first since I haven't seen them since 2010/2011 and it will be my first trip without my dude! how am I able to survive that's one of my question but I did and I really enjoyed that weekend.

Personally, it was a challenge since I was about to attend a wedding and how on earth to pack light when you're attending such event? but I did pack everything on my backpack with a blower and a hair iron in it! yay! It was a success and I'm so proud with that.

It was also an adventure most especially looking for place to rent at 5am. Olongapo is a familiar place since I've been there before and going back for a quick weekend with friends is an unforgettable one. Hopefully, I will be able to see them again soon not after years. :)

Congrats Faith and Fitz!


thank you to the friendly staff of http://www.thepalmtreeresort.com

Don't dare to ask my favorite from this album. haha but here's the some released videos

Not So Fragile

Why do I always forgot to chill?

I'm so used to have a very fragile day every 27th of December but once I was out there today, it totally disappeared. I already accepted that I can't have a me-time today since there's a lot in my to do list most especially this week so, I really convinced myself to play it cool even it was hard at first.

I'm not as emotional as I was before maybe because one of the lesson this year and I was able to apply is it to be chill at all time. lol (even on the last hours of today, I really tried!!!)

I disabled my Messenger notification because I don't like responsing as fast as they sent that message. I don't like the effect of social media on me most especially today. Thank you Facebook people for being a keyboard warrior sending me birthday greetings and spreading the message that other people should greet me too. lol (I really hate that)

For a few years now, I don't look forward to gifts anymore because as we all employed people know, we can buy treats for ourselves once in a while for the whole year. Maybe the thing that I was looking forward to are the "Christmas miracles" it's not because I was super duper busy for the past months, sometimes it's just the family time.

Same as today, I don't really look forward to any material things just a good me-time or family time since most of my friends are not in Manila. We will do a late celebration for sure (fingers crossed for this because it will be super duper late celebration).

Anyway, since I turned off all my social media notification most especially Facebook I will just response to all of you in a few minutes or hours. lol It was refreshing to stay away from social media most especially today.

Thank you to everyone who knows my birthday by heart (as always) or by seeing it on other people's post, thank you.

To the very chill person I know, thank you! I really appreciate it hope you didn't get a flat tire! :D


And if you're one of the people I'm celebrating this day with, happy birthday to us! <3

Nobody

Same fast food chain, same table but for sure a different chair where I wrote something serious before that I don't remember and surely a different mood this time maybe better than before. 

It's gonna be a super duper long and busy week before next weekend and as much I want to fast forward to that, I need more than 24 hours to finish everything before that. 

I'm here at home court trying to squeeze some me-time after weeks of being super busy and it still not yet over until the end of this year. Year end are usually busy times even there's bunch of holidays. 

Thankful to discover that one of my favorite mall is until 12mn for weeks. I love late night and last minute shopping I hope there will be a 24 hours mall or at least until maybe 3am that will be nice. 

As much as I can avoid #mantra I enjoy being a nobody in the city, it's one of my favorite things. I even find myself not using my earphones just to hear the unusual surrounding. I'm sick staying in at home town the past months because I've been seeing things that is so negative that it affects my point of view of hometown. Most especially I literally don't have me-time unless times like this that I sacrifice some things just to have it. 

It's nearly 2am on a Saturday and I'm still out here even I'm sleepy already. I love passing by and stay for a while at home court. It's a different feeling here, this is home to me and I shared a lot of memories here with friends and even alone, I stay here. 

I'm trying to avoid writing a lot of personal experience lately since I'm super duper busy and it has been a pure test of my personality and capabilities in general. I know some people just see the outside but battling with a lot inside me is a different story. Seeing two side and being on both is such a huge shit of learning experience and sacrifice. Talking about being 2 person everyday. Lol

Sacrifices, one day it will be worth it. 

I'm not sure when to publish this but one thing is I'm sure, all my drafts will be up before the end of the year. I want to start next year with new posts. Maybe I'll publish this before my birthday. Yay. 

On my random post for this month, I really wish that I will not hate my favorite month and try to stay positive despite of being super busy. Geez you don't have any idea. Haay. No complaints because I'm learning. Adulthood as they say. 

Despite of the busiest months of my life, I would like to thank the people who guide me with everything most especially at work. To my mom for understanding, our dogs for the love. To the people who put 110% trust in me since day one (always bringing me in tears). Thank you. I will choose a date when to schedule this post and if I'm back on the real deal before that, I will be so relieved.

Lastly I would like to thank my guy for unending love and support. I know we both are busy but it never gotten between us despite of my moody days, thank you for always reminding me to chill.

I love it here and it's also good that I drop by in here every now and then because if I'm always here, for sure I will hate this place too. Thankful that I got a home out of hometown. 

I'll see you again soon home court, hopefully I will not be teary-eyed when I'm getting away from you this time.

Just One

First and foremost, I'm sure you will not find this unless I will send you a link but I don't do that. I don't mean to hurt you but it's so sick to see how you handle things but we have our own way so if this is you handling things, ok. 

When you are too far, do you really have to distance yourself more?

On this high technology era we all have right now, physical affection is tested but distancing yourself more is a different story. 

Not judging you with what you've done but I just can't take the fact that you are literally detaching yourself more when you're already far. You know better. You know us. You know how to talk to us. Why hesitate. 

I also can't handle the fact that with such simple trip will pissed you off so bad and still I find it funny. 

I can't handle the fact that you can just throw everything away no matter what we've been through. 

Why. Just why detached. Why are you so shady that I think I don't know you anymore. 

I remember the day you left, I got a lot of realization with life in general. Still hitting me until today. 

If you feel lost why detached and literally cut off everyone? You can't find what you're looking for if all you think is cutting off the ties. I myself lost for handful of times but I guess I just really know myself that's why I know how to handle such thing. 

I'm forever here for you even you chose to detached and be pissed off but I can't do anything if you will literally cut it from where we left off. 

I miss you everyday and that doesn't change since the day you left but it's your choice and I respect that. Even it means I can't have someone who I can call for an impromptu dinner date in our beloved hometown every other night or every weekend or even every night. 

I know we both changed and we grow up individually but I still believe that whatever will happen in our future, we're still one of those people who got a sister from another mother. (I wish I'm right at this) 

Wishing you luck on finding yourself as you claimed that's lost. I hope you will know yourself better and whatever adventure you want to experience, enjoy. 

Just remember we do make our own choices and we should know how to deal with its consequences. But don't make major decision most especially if you're not emotionally stable. I wish you happiness with all your doings. 

Just one last advice, talk. 

Leaving

After a month, I was able to have time with Gem and somehow a me-time. 

Feel so good to escape hometown for few hours and rest my mind from all the responsibilities. Seems like I already adjusted even I'm still not but today, I chose to go out there. 

Of course I should visit home court before going home but as it is time to go home, I felt so sad. 

Every step I make while walking away from home court feels like I'm leaving a piece of me in there. When the jeepney started to move away from the city, I felt tears in my eyes. 

It just hit me hard that hometown doesn't feel like home anymore. 

I already felt it before but now it's different because of what happened on my jeeptrip. 

I asked myself why am I feeling this way. Is it the people? Maybe. Is it because I'm staying in too long? Maybe. Exhausted? Maybe.  

There are a lot of reason why I think I'm in tears right now while lying in bed and typing all of these. (yep. that bad)

What if I live in the city and leave this town behind, will I be happy? Everything in here feel so strange lately. 

Geez self, we really need some time away from here soon. Sunrise, sunset, clouds, sand and the open sea, I'm craving for you. 

I guess I should still be content with the same outlet for now.

Cry Baby

I cry when I'm hurt  

I cry when I'm angry 

I cry when I'm happy  

I cry when I'm sad 

I cry when I need to cry

For a couple of times a year, there will be a situation that I feel so emotionally attacked. When it happen, I can't fight back strongly as a lion instead I cry and hyperventilate. 

Thinking will come sooner and realization will be insanely depressing and inspiring at the same time. 

For some people it's normal, there will be a person who is like me that will just cry on everything and will be able to make up our minds after an ugly cry. 

Though I still ask myself why am I being a cry baby most of the time my answer will always be, I'm too sensitive.

Staying In

The idea of staying in hometown sounds very bad news to me after feeling stuck for a while but just right now, ideas are striking in my head and maybe this is the first of many. 

Gem asked for dinner Friday night and I said yes but she cancelled last minute and since I'm in a middle of strictly budgeting, I decided to stay at home even I'm so surprised that after a long day I was still energized. I was planning going out on Saturday but things aren't working well together and there's a bit of raining so I took that as a sign to stay in. I want to chase this local film but since I will be extra busy for the next days, I think I'll let it pass. 

I was trying to arrange on how will I make things work for the next days and it makes me excited, nervous and overwhelmed at the same time. I will be superhuman and I'm not complaining since it's challenging my time management and my organized self. 

Hopefully my ideas will be written not just this one since there's a lot of realization and I'm so f overwhelmed.

UAAP S80 . Men's Basketball Champion

Congratulations to Ateneo!

It's really hard at first to distance myself from basketball games most especially it's UAAP season but I was able to detached at some point. 

There was a chance for us to be in the Finals but then we fell short and it's not for us. 

After Ateneno beat us during Final 4, I want them to win instead of DLSU. 

what if it turned out very differently where Adu defeated DLSU and we defeated Ateneo? Ahhh. It will be 2011 time. Yesss. Hahaha. But it's not for both of us, obviously. 

I think everyone agreed that there is no better Game 3 than what we all experienced. 

On my part, no matter what season it is, it's always a treat to witness a game between FEU and ADMU during elimination through the end. 

Even I wasn't able to be updated most of the time about the basketball season, I knew this is one is an unforgettable one. 

Congrats again, Ateneo.
