I don't think I think enough.

Let me see you try to take this smile away.

epiphany | e·piph·a·ny  (ɪˈpɪfənɪ)
1. (Christianity / Ecclesiastical Terms) the manifestation of a supernatural or divine reality;
2. any moment of great or sudden revelation;
3. a sudden manifestation of the essence or meaning of something

Still the best TL everrrr even if she doesn't work in Duzon anymore. =)

So I had an epiphany. After that extremely long talk with TL Maylin, I returned to my station with this massive smile across my face and joy overflowing in my heart. I swear, the more I let it all out, the better I feel. I have yet to write a novel and have a gazillion people read it, but somehow, talks with people who love me always result in something more than positive. Thank God for bringing these people in my life.

Anyway, last week (and a little bit yesterday), I was in a bit of a rage. Just a tiny bit because I hate being angry. Haha. Thank God for Aizel and Gelo and Toots and Don. Thank God for texting and calling each other up on the phone. I had these saved, but I really should delete them. LOL.

I said a few not-so-nice things.

 But I still realize that I'm too much of a nice person overall.

And some messages just make me laugh. =)
(Please note: Don Jules and I have been calling each other FuckBud since college. Hihi.)




I know I've written a short, decent (if I may) letter already, but I feel the need to write another (tomorrow, this weekend, who knows?). With more details, perhaps. Because, you know, writing is a therapy. =)

Buy a blank notebook. Draw a huge heart on the cover. Don’t write anything negative in here. If you need another outlet, make a separate notebook. This one is all about love, personal growth, and getting back up. Fill it with beautiful images, reaffirming thoughts, and quotes. Write in it every day, and each day write one thing you’re grateful for in your life.

Speaking of writing, I bought a regular notebook last week for all the negativity. I have been writing quite a lot in it because I don't want to keep any of these negative feelings within me for too long. Anyway, it now looks like this:

Haha, I thought the "title" was appropriate.

But of course I have a separate notebook for all the positive feelings and reflections. I totally fell in love with this notebook the moment I set my eyes on it. Mostly because of the color; it reminds me of Tiffany & Co. Haha! It's so chic and classy at the same time -- so me. LOL. 

So simple. The cover feels really nice to the touch as well. <3

And whilst at the bookstore yesterday, I bought a copy of Paulo Coelho's Aleph. I cannot wait to get started on it! I have so many things to read daily now. (Which reminds me: I need to purchase another Bible because Richie took mines and I remember how much I love highlighting verses in it! Hopefully I can follow through with the daily reading plan aside from my daily devotionals. Hihihi.) I also originally planned to buy Chuck Palahniuk's ever-so-famous book, Fight Club, but none of the bookstores in Festi had a copy. I knew I should have bought that book from Fully Booked last Saturday! Gah.

I've read so many wonderful reviews about this! Excited!

So that is my idea of shopping. Unpacking brand new notebooks and books of all sorts makes me so giddy. And when you've got them out of their plastic wrap, you stick your nose in its pages and breathe them in. It's definitely one of the loveliest feelings I have found to be pleasurable. :")
