bored ka, magbloghop ka

i had nothing to do after 7 Eleven..straight online and check every account i have and got bored to death looking at other people's pictures! haha

anyway, i got really bored so i looked up other people's blogs, from blogs to blogs i found some "celebrity" blogs. one would be bianca gonzales' blog, which is not really new to anyone -- maybe just for me! haha then from bianca to ala paredes (http://ala-ism.pansitan.net) then scanned her entries for the past 2 years and somehow i can relate myself to her, what she's been through. i just found out that her whole family is in Aussie and they've been there for 2 years now.

i may not have lived the life she had in the Phils. (veejay, model, anak ni jim paredes.period.haha) but somehow we had the same once-in-a-while-angst and totally grabbed from our comfort zone to a place where we should or accept to call "home" -- somehow! well for her she was through with that phase but, as for me, still working on it.

i liked what she said, "Manila is as comfortable as an old shoe. But sometimes you need new shoes if you want to conquer new terrain. These new shoes called Sydney, they were uncomfortable at first and gave me blisters, but it's just a matter of walking, and keeping on, and bearing the pain until you break them in." http://ala-ism.pansitan.net/2007_07_01_ala-ism_archive.html

sakto!
but i just changed the Sydney to LA..haha

so somehow i was relieved knowing that it's not just me who's so-emotional-dramatic-o.a-at-times with this issue but still eager to prove to others and to myself that i can make it, from scratch.. =)
