6th months in dxb ...

come july 04, i have successfully completed 6 months here in dubai ... all i can say is that, "way to go gurl". it's such an achievement for someone like me to live a life away from home. oh yes, i've got a very comfortable and chill life in manila; a dream life to some of the people out there ... but life isnt all that comfort, i do believe that some times that you've gotta get out of your comfort zone in order to learn and to maximize your growth as a person.

living a life away from home will teach you a lot of things ... adjustments with all those crazy antics around you will definetly make your eyes roll ... but you've got no choice, you've gotta embrace those things whether you like it or not --- in order to survive and blend with the crowd. i also realized that independent living goes hand in hand with "responsibility" ... and this time ive got a bigger responsiblity at the top of my head. ive gotta discipline myself in every aspect of life, in every day and in every way. temptations from all sorts are every where, from left to right, back and front ... it's a challenge actually! it's scary but once you resisted it, ALAS, a personal victory!

the "miss" thing is one thing that attacks during one's most off-guard moments. And once it attacks ... BOOMMM!!! good luck! ;) hahaha ... i honestly dunno as to how i am surviving all these sh*ts, i miss a lot of things back home, i miss the way i used to live my life ... it's so much different from here. i miss a lot of people too; dad most specially and the rest of the family, i miss my VCF family, all my gimmik friends and everybody back home. i miss kobe (arf-arf) and i miss choi (vroom-vroomm)!

sigh, dubai ... now, im stucked here in this desert country for 1.5 years more ...

what's left for me to do .. i dont wanna be a loser or whatever, i've gotta stand up firmly, chin up and enjoy whatever it is to enjoy ... God brought me here for a reason ... ive gotta unfold the mystery in a fun and exciting way. challenges and obstacles will come way for sure, but as long as i have Him in my heart, i'll make it through ... that's for sure!!!

long live the kikay me!!! long live Him in our hearts!

cheers ye all!

"Any one can make you happy by doing something special, but only somene special can make you happy without doing anything!"

you changed my life in a moment

The nights the sky was filled with clouds

My worried mind was filled with fear

I couldn't count all the lonely hours

Spent with memories and tears

I never thought I would see the day

When I could throw all my sorrow away

But then you came and you showed me the way

You have made all those times disappear

You changed my life in a moment

And I'll never be the same again

You changed my life in a moment

And it's hard for me to understand

With the touch of your hand in a moment in time

All my sorrow is gone

(is gone...is gone...is gone...)

I never thought that I could change

Could change so much in so many waysI

'm still surprised when I look in my mirror

To see that I still look the same

You changed my life in a moment

And I'll never be the same again

You changed my life in a moment

And it's hard for me to understand

With the touch of your hand in a moment in time

All my sorrow is gone

(You changed my life in a moment)

You changed my life

(And I'll never be the same again)I

'll never be the same

You changed my life in a momentA

nd it's hard for me to understand

With the touch of your hand in a moment in time

All my sorrow is gone(

You changed my life in a moment)

Gone...gone..I

n a moment in time

All my sorrow is gone...
