It’s been a boring day today. It was so silent you can hear yourself breathing. Where the only loud things you can hear are the airconditioner’s roar and the non-stop clicks of the keyboard’s keys.
I’ve never been this silent before. Except during the days where I feel so sleepy even a gallon of coffee couldn’t help keep my eyes open.
I stumbled across one of Rico’s article in his blog about the growing concern regarding todays world – having a virtual life that affects the real life. I must admit, when I was young I’m one of those who spent so much time and money just to play and level up my virtual characters. I used to spend numerous time playing Final Fantasy, Metal Gear, Legend of Legaia, and so many more.
I still can remember how I am always being scolded by my Dad because, all day, all I do is sit in front of the TV and play games. Lots and lots of games. Where I even miss to eat and do some of my chores. Where I always look forward to go home when I am in school because I wanted to reach level 99 and get my weapons upgraded to be able to give 9999 damage.
There will be a time in your life that you will encounter two paths. Each leads you to something. Each leads you sometimes to nothing. But whatever the end of these paths, you need to choose one. I faced this a few days ago. I have to choose between the two. Which one to take. Which one not to.
To get the big picture to what I will be saying, let’s say the first path is AA. The second is BB. The thing is, you cannot get both. You really need to choose one. There will definitely be something that you need to sacrifice if you choose AA over BB and vice versa.
Patience is a virtue. That’s what they say. But how long can you be patient really? Yeah, it is good to have a long patience but for humans there’s always an end. And this is not an exception.
Love is in the air because today is Valentines day. The day of love as they say.
As I surf the super highway, I came across one of my post before. I don’t remember where I got it from or if I made it. If someone owns this let me know so that I can give you the credit.
Yes, we’re going back home. That fast, huh? Well, we’re done with what we came here for but it was quite a journey. Experienced everything (well, I guess not everything). Good or bad, it was indeed a great trip. It is true what they say – “It is better (sweeter) the second time around.”
I believe I had done what I didn’t do the first time I went in Dallas. Surely, the next time I get back here (if there will ever be a next time) it would be different again. Masaya din ang tumira sa US. Maganda pamumuhay, madami kang mabibili. Tamang tama lang sa kinikita mo. Ang mahirap lang ay ang kultura. Ibang iba sa kulturang pinoy.
After having our feast at Texas Roadhouse, we went straight to Cinemark to watch a movie. We wanted to watch a DLP movie but we already seen what was showing. So, we end up watching The Blind Side.
