Life

to me, is a blank canvas.

We, as people, begin as primary colors and as our lives progress, we mix with others and become something different.

Then we move on to another, and another, and another until we finally create something beautiful.

Because that's what life is.

It's beautiful.

Don't stress that 'cause it's not in your bloodstream


I know I've stated here before that I only blog when I'm sad... Scraaatch that, cuz I'm blogging when I'm feeling like P-Didday yee!

It's funny.. Sometimes you create such a strong mental picture in your head that when it comes to it, it's not what you sought it to be.. But then you realize that, it's not about that. I think it's the thrill of having imaginations that allows you to sort of get away every few minutes when you're in a tedious situation.

Maybe a breather for the mind? Cause I know it feels damn good to think about things sometimes.. even though it's not really how things turn out most of the time. But if it was, then really, where's the excitement in that. You can always be looking forward to something right?

a list of random realization of self

  1. I don't "really" blog when I'm happy.
  2. Normal = Boring. Arika = Not normal. Therefore, Arika = Not Boring
  3. I was reminded why I never want to eat out at an American restaurant. It's because of the endless burping that lasts til the AM due to overeating. (I know, yuck!)
  4. I've met a couple 'seemingly cool' people in the past couple years that I really would like to get to know; except I lack the confidence to do so.
  5. I realized that it is very possible to be cocky and unconfident at the same time.
  6. I enjoy surrounding myself with AB blood-type people.
  7. My only source of motivation is my mother's daily emails.
  8. I like ugly things, a lot.
  9. I only 'hate' things that 'hate' me. I absolutely hate Irvine because Irvine hates me too, a lot.
  10. This is one of the rare occasions that I'm blogging when I'm genuinely happy. Thank you for such an amazing day. you know who you areeee.. YEeeeEh

New Outlook for the New Year: 2010!


Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn’t arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I’m going to be happy in it. - Groucho Marx
