Let me tell you something,

I'll finally admit it. I don't enjoy the things that I used to anymore. I don't know what happened to me...the old me. The new kind of "me" is kinda dull and tired...and dull, and tired. I used to be very passionate on the things I love/d. I don't want to be a doctor who lost herself in the process. I don't want to be totally consumed by anxieties. I need to find me. 

I used to love photography. Covering events...capturing moments. But now, I only have the moments, with no motivation to capture it.

I used to be very good with my pen. I love writing! writing used to be my emotional tongue. Now, I only write for school requirements.

I love sketching/drawing/painting. I used to be Art's favorite daughter, before Science adopted me. I can't even finish a single sketch nowadays. And in most days, I don't do art anymore.

I love music. I wouldn't trade it for the world. Of all the craft I think I've lost...this upsets me the most. Can't finish a single tune nor hit a single note anymore.


I need to save me.
I know that it'll take time to heal myself back. But I promise myself, I will :)

I only have a few months to go before 3rd year med ends. Hopefully, I get to advance in Junior Internship. I've been really busy trying to keep control in my acads while saving most of the relationships I have now.

11 things I tell myself everyday

1.  It's okay to be at fault. 
2. Be a little kinder everyday.
3. patience. patience. patience.
4. Say sorry, as often as you can.
5. fake a smile and hide your exhaustion
6. Make a mistake, get over it.
7. give yourself a break.
8. you deserve it.
9. wait for your turn.
10. forgive the little things.
11. find time for everyone.

Cebu Pre-Sinulog trip 2016

This was my first trip "out of town" with my best friend. This trip was one of my few first attempts to actually arrange a complete vacay. We surely did enjoy a few days out before Med school classes resume.

Thanks to Perfect Destination Travel Services Co. for the "perfect" arrangements.

We stayed at Crown Regency Hotel & Towers (4-star hotel) for 3 days and 2 nights.
The airport-hotel transfers were smooth, as well as our tour arrangements. Our contact in Perfect Destination agency was very reliable and accommodating.

We spent 8,200 pesos each for the All-in Cebu experience. Expect that Cebu tour rates would increase especially anytime near Cebu Sinulog Festival.

• roundtrip airfare (via Air Asia Zest & PAL)
• hotel accommodation (Crown Regency w/ daily breakfast)
• roundtrip transfers
• Cebu City tour

Zubuchon!!! totally, a must try here in Cebu!

Fuente Osmeῆa Circle Night life! Good thing, this place was a few steps away from Crown Regency. Pre-Sinulog concert+Food fest. They also have the best "hilaw na mangga"

played TRUTH or TRUTH all night

Yap-San Diego Ancestral House (one of the oldest house and definitely tarnished with antiquity)

Our first stop in our Cebu City tour

Heritage of Cebu Monument

Pari-An Fire station

San Juan Bautista Chapel

Obligatory Magellan's Cross shot (still under renovation)

Viva Pit Seῆor!

I got a bank space baby, and I'll write your name lol

Philippine Taoist temple

wishing well

travel sneakers: adidas superstar whiteout

pre-departure snack

To be honest, our Cebu trip was more of food trippin' than actually enjoying what Cebu could offer. We also tried a full-body massage at Nuat Thai.

P.S. It's my 3rd visit in Cebu, and the experience gets better every time! See you soon, Cebu!
still wasn't able to bring home a quality ukulele :(
