You were too naive to see it

When you were both young:
- he gives you hints that he likes you, even though you're best friends. . . 
- . . .but you were too naive to see it.

When puberty and hormones kick in:
-You start to "slightly" like him. . . 
-Then he starts to notice other girls
-. . .But deep inside, his feelings for you become stronger (but then again, he was really good in hiding it)

When you both got your first kiss:
- You were rambling for the whole day non-stop. He tries everything to shut you up but nothing worked. so, he did one thing that made you so.
- He kissed you. (for only a second-----it was more like a smack)
-. . .  but you were too shocked to react. He pulls away, and you asked him why.
- His lame reply: Just to shut you up!
- Both of you never mentioned it again, and continued to be best friends (but both of you can't ignore that feeling since you kissed)

When he got his first girlfriend: 
- You were completely calm (but not on the inside)
- You treated her as a friend because she was truly nice
-You respected his private moments with her, even though it hurt sometimes.. . .  cause that's what friends are for . . .  Right???? 
- You presume this overprotective feeling was just you, being sisterly to him.

When you went on your first date:
- After the date, the guy went with you to your house. But when you arrived your best friend was there, standing right outside your porch, looking rather glum, making sure he sent you off on time. When your date tried to kiss you he made sure both of  your lips didn't even touch. 

-Why was he even there in the first place?????

Age is just a number

 He might not be ready to submit a college application, but Thomas Suarez of Manhattan Beach, California is already releasing apps for iOS devices. The sixth grader recently gave a talk at TEDxManhattanBeach in which he discussed his love of computers (he got into them in kindergarten), his plans for the future, and the inspiration he got from the late Steve Jobs.


Suarez has released several apps on the Apple App Store since launching his first, a fortune-telling title called Earth Fortune, in late 2010. 


After teaching himself programming basics in Python, C, and Java, Suarez says he took up Apple's SDK and Xcode. "I've gotten a lot of inspiration from Steve Jobs," he says. Inspired, he started an App Club at his school, because "not many kids know where to go to find out how to make a program." As he sees it, "for soccer, you could go to a soccer team, and for violin, you could get a lesson from a violinist." But even parents might not be a resource, since as he rightly points out, "not many of them have written apps."


The club is working with its teacher sponsor to create iPad apps for education, which will eventually be distributed to local school districts free of charge, and sold to others. Oh, and he's even created his own company, CarrotCorp. It sounds like Suarez picked up a little entrepreneurial spirit from Jobs, as well.

. . . Thus, I never heal

Today, we had our day of prayer.

When I first, entered the room, I was like I shouldn't have come here. I've already experienced this anyway. but after a few minutes, I began to regret what I just said.

Me and my classmates' were asked to form a circle, and answer this question: What is the most important relationship in your life? I looked all around me and began to notice that my classmates eyes are beginning to become more and more teary just because of thinking of this freaking question.

When my classmates begin to share their stories, I can't help but pity and envy them. Well. . . .  I know everyone can understand I would pity them, but Envy?! I mean, who would want to feel all the pain that they felt?But,Newsflash everyone: I would. Now, the million-dollar question would be why?
I don't envy them because of what they've been through. . . . . I envy them because they become stronger and stronger.

I see their experiences as wounds. As time goes buy, they heal. And then They become more and more stronger. That's why I envy them, they become more aware of what mistakes they did, and they try to avoid it. They make sure  the wounds heal. Then they learn.

Just like them, I get wounds too. But unlike them, it doesn't heal. Unlike them, I don't get scars to remind me of what I've learned. Unlike them, I continue to bleed, Thus I never heal.

Make it EPIC

Have you ever had that feeling that you were cursed to be a failure forever???

Well, if not your lucky. But if you're like me, then. . . .  sucks to be us, right? It's like,  Whenever we try our best it seems like we just continue to fail. It's not in the blood, nor the gene. It's just we're different. Whenever we think some people are different, bad things usually pop in our thoughts. But, when you're different, you're unique. Not just some simple teen, trying to "go with the flow".

Just because he/she has high grades now, doesn't mean they'd succeed life. I mean, it's just numbers,right? 

And since we know we're gonna fail anyways, might as well make it Epic

Think happy thoughts

I know everyone's familiar with Peter Pan. I mean who isn't? Who could ever forget the perky, forever young teenage boy we see in movies who is part of every girls dream? Not mentioning his ability to fly! That's what attracted me most to Peter Pan. it was not the he was handsome. Nor was it that he was immortal (if he stays in Neverland). But because it was the method he uses to fly.


If it wasn't for Peter Pan. . .  I guess I would be "emo" or gothic right now. Because of him, he made me become more optimistic whenever I had problems. I would also remember Captain Hook. Of course, he was our normal villain. In my life, I see captain hook as my problems.And who could ever forget the lost boys? they were Fun, adventurous, and loyal. Now, I see them as my family and friends. Peter Would always win whenever he had battles against Captain hook because he can fly. and when he flies, he always. . . . 


Think of Happy Thoughts,


When I was young I used to used to laugh at kids who still watch and adore Disney Fairy tale movies. But I was only able to see their importance now that I'm growing up, because I realized they are my (and my sisters') heroes.





Why?

I know we have a lot of questions in our life. I mean, who doesn't have? We ask ourselves this in every situation we have. We keep on asking "Why did I get dumped?" or "Why did I fail the exam" or in my case "Why do I have constipation?". But for once in your life, have you ever just suddenly stopped doing what you were doing and just ask "Why?". Why am I alive?


Usually, when you ask someone this question, They answer: It's because God has a mission for you. I do strongly believe that God has a mission for me, but have you ever asked him; "Why Me?". That mind boggling question that you want to answer, because you know you don't deserve to live at all.


Well have you ever asked yourself?

A very Thin Line

I believe there is a thin line between everything.


A thin line between right and wrong.
A thin line between friends and enemies.  
A thin line between hatred and love. 


It's just Us and our Stubbornness that make everything complicated.
