Toy Story 3

It was a simple story of toys getting left behind by their owner who's going away for college.

It was supposed to be one of those brilliant Pixar creations. It was all that and more.

From the very creative minds which brought us A Bug's Life, Up, Wall-e and all those amazing masterpieces, outdid themselves again.

Woody, Buzz and the gang  scared me tonight. They scared me because of the way they were able to manipulate me. As if they know me that well.

They should really do better next time. And if that's impossible, it's their fault. They keep on raising the bar with their every creation.  They own animation now. I have no choice but to expect nothing less.

"No owners, no heartaches." (I just have to insert this)

Blog 2.0

It has been two years since I started this project. Somehow this blog has been a life map for me. Although I don't chronicle everything. (God forbid if i did) This project gives me an idea where I was a few months ago. What was going through my head, what was my emotional state. I could've chosen a less public journal. Instead, I chose to share some of my thoughts with the universe. Even if the universe don't give a hoot.
This month is a slow month for me and my project. I haven't logged for quite some time. Maybe when life happens, there's no need to hit the record button.

It's 1,051,200 minutes to this day.

And in the ebb and flow of words, life always happens, whether we hit record or not.

Lost

Sometimes I’m such a study in contradiction that I shame myself. I just came from a refreshing three-day retreat in Tagaytay which set my course straight again. And I am grateful for this wonderful experience.


Oftentimes, I wander from the path that is set for me. Whether as product of my own selfishness or folly, I fell into the traps set before me.

And yet during the times when the urge to pull away gets stronger, somehow God pulls me back into his loving arms.

And like a prodigal daughter, I welcome His embrace like a wayward child finally reunited with her Abba father.
