Ciao! Si! Italian... for the past few days, I've been into learning L'italiano. It was the influence of my lovely co-workers. Learning a different language is like travelling to another country and this is what I want to do in the near future. TRAVEL. Unfortunately, I cannot take my plans into actions right away because my fund is kind of hitting the negative since I've been into the state of idleness for 3 weeks now. There's some problem in my workplace that I don't want to elaborate here but I am praying for extended patience. I am hoping for a brighter tomorrow and I will be waiting until SUNDAY.
So today or tonight (because it's 9:21 pm here in my place) I am going to share the 10 questions that I encountered in marcandangel.com entitled "50 questions that will free your mind". 50 is a big number so I only chose 10.
1. If happiness was the national currency, what kind of work would make you rich?
Answer: Helping others. I will never get tired of this. Even if this will not make me rich I will do anything I can to help other people.
2. Would you break the law to save a loved one?
Answer: Honest answer. YES. I will. I will do anything... EVERYTHING to save my loved one.
3. If you had to move to a state or country besides the one you currently live in, where would you move and why?
Answer: Canada. Fort Mc Murray. Aside from the fact that my aunt is there... after seeing the scenery in the pictures... it makes me want to see the place vividly with my own eyes. I feel like I can actually live there and be happily surrounded by NATURE.
4. Why are you, you?
Answer: Because I chose to be ME. By the choice that I made... I learned a great deal of lessons. I'm always me and I noticed that I annoyed people, they misunderstood my intentions, they called me weird and strange. But I don't think so. I beleive that everybody is DISTINCT from each other. What other people think about me is NONE OF MY BUSINESS. My friend taught me this.
5. Do you remember that time 5 years ago when you were extremely upset? Does it really matter now?
Answer: Yes. I made a mistake back then. Mistake that already belong to the PAST but since I learned a lesson from them, they influenced my NOW. 5 years ago.... that specific event still matters.
6. If not now, then when?
Answer: When my circumstance allows me to. I cannot just jump into something without measuring the up, down, left and right of my surroundings. If I am ready, my inner self will talk to me and she will say "Go!". but right now... I'm in the state of Contemplation and Confusion. I'm doing my hardest to clear my view.
7. Would you rather have less work to do, or more work you actually enjoy doing?
Answer: MORE WORK. I love getting busy. I love a hectic schedule... I love working.
8. What is the difference between being alive and truly living?
Answer: Being alive is when you do things that are too mainstream. You go with the flow without actually listening to your own mind and following your heart.You do things that other people do. Truly living is when you do things that you really like, following your heart and although scared you do things that you think will make you a better person.
9. DECISIONS: Are you making them for yourself, or are you letting others make them for you?
Answer: Unfortunately, I'm still letting others influence mine. My parents. They are playing a BIG PART in my decision making process. Parents are ALWAYS right. In my opinion. It's not about letting them run my life but it's about RESPECTING their advice.
10. If we learn from our mistakes, why are we always so afraid to make a mistake?
ANSWER: Because I am tired of experiencing PAIN. Mistakes bring lessons into our life as well as emotional, physical and mental pain. Mistake-Pain-Lesson. That is the process.
The remaining 40 questions will be answered in my diary. I just want to share this 10 answers because this week I experienced TOO MUCH confusion. Somehow, answering marcandangel questions helped me to slowly clear my mind. I just hope that tomorrow the thing that I am expecting to happen will happen. Of course I will do my part to make it happen.
GOD BLESS EVERYONE.

Blog // Dream it. Plan it. Do it.
A lot of people noticed that my eating habit became "Vegetarian" like, but honestly I'm not... I still eat meat (pork and beef) once in a blue moon, noodles once a month, junk foods once in a while but it's a NO-NO for soda and alcoholic drinks. I stopped drinking soda when I was still 17 years old and that was almost 6 years ago. As for alcoholic beverages.. I am not a fan of it that's why I only drink once a year. Christmas or New year... THAT'S IT.
I am starting to shift or change my habits and lifestyle. I'm starting to drink tea (Green tea), I stopped drinking coffee, I am starting to read books again because reading is a part of me, I am starting to draw and doodle, I am starting to write stuffs about life, I am starting to listen to calmer songs (instrumental, alternative, mori music), I am starting to talk to strangers again, I am starting to eat vegetables and fruits and minimize my white rice intake. Most of all... I am starting to smile and laugh again.
As for the changes I made... I was really contemplating last year about change. I was worried and afraid that I might lose my "True" self if I do this. I couldn't decide! Reason why I'd been into the state of idleness. Moving on was painful for me but I told to myself that I have to do it. Finally, I started to shove all my negative thoughts to the other side and let the positive thoughts enter my view. I even changed the color of my room (tulip beige), changed all my clothes (I had enough with my all black clothes).
Look what happened! I can say that I am HAPPY! Contented. Overwhelmed. I feel so blessed. I can't explain but from the time I decided to change and be happy even if a lot of bad things happened to me; I failed, no money, left by my friends, was insulted and constantly backstabbed last year... I feel very light. It is as if all the heavy things I carried the last time disappeared and was replaced by the ever comforting wind. I feel like I was touched by the hands of God and he was the one who helped me to stand up and organize my life.
I am happy with my job. I am happy with my new gained friends. I am happy with my old true friends. I am happy with my respectful students. I am happy with the things I have right now. I am happy.
It was only last year that I dreamed of having this kind of things to revolve around me. I started planning my future... and Now... I am working on it. Doing it is the most hardest part. I need to invest a lot of efforts but I am willing to give my all this time. There's no turning back. Focus. Concentrate. No pain, No gain.
I am not going to waste the second chance He had given me. I am learning to embrace my life, myself and everyone. I have my wings now... I only need to learn how to fly. To fly towards my Air castle.
I am a dreamer. I planned... and I am doing it now. Taking my plans into ACTION.
I know and God knows you can do it too. It takes time but you need and have to BELIEVE.
GOOD LUCK!
Good night Everyone. Don't forget to spread the love.
I love. I like. THE WORLD.
