8's On My List

People see people on different levels. That impression most of the time becomes the basis of how they perceive who they see, who they know, who they hear from others. And so it wouldn’t come to me as a surprise if I seem this way but is totally otherwise in fact. But I wouldn’t care a lot about it NOW. I would’ve back then. But definitely not now. It may bug me at times but maybe of sheer want and need to be left alone and let be. And with all that said, I’d like to give everyone a sneak peek of eight things you may not know about, things that you already know but does not entirely notice, the things that transpired to me over time, or simply the things you refused to see and believe. Here are the 8s On My List…

• I am a Reformed Christian. Yes, I am. And I’m so so proud of it. This became an inside joke before knowing i sometimes go home at the crack of dawn just to sleep an hour or so and wake up and go to church still groggy and all or does not go home at all and goes directly to church straight from an all night’s party that i would usually refer myself as the only ngarag Christian there is. But friends, on the other hand, would prefer to see it in a different outlook: they see me as the most faithful partygurl. And i do take it as a compliment knowing faith is a whole lot more important to me than most people think.
• I sleep and eat a lot. It’s just not obvious. HAHA! I’m such a pig that people often wonder where everything i devour goes to.
• I don’t talk as much anymore. Yes. Unlike before, I’d rather keep a lot of things to myself now. I’m living one helluva life. I don’t think i have to spell it out for everyone.
• I’m wiser now. I’m not getting any younger. Well, who is? I may not be looking any older but I’m pretty sure I’m getting more mature by the minute.
• I don’t believe in against all odds anymore. As I said, I’ve grown wiser. There’s more to it than drowning yourself with the person when you know you can just swim across the shore and save yourself.
• I believe everything in life is relative. So i don’t go pleasing everyone. I know I just can’t. I never will. So i won’t.
• I’m happy to be apart from the world that used to revolve around me. I love my new life. No people prying in on what-nots and all the things that are totally not their business. I love the air of freedom. Of peace. Apart from the rest…
• Dreams. A lot of things occur to me when I’m asleep. I, too, find it weird. But usually wake up in the middle of the night with things going in on my head. Things i should know, things i should remember, things that just wake me up. To reality. And however weird it gets, it helps a lot of reality check for me cuz the things that occur to me when I’m asleep are things that are actually about to happen, or has happened without me knowing face-front. Can I get any more weirder?

There are actually a lot more than eight but since I’m calling this 8s On My List then i guess i hafta stick to eight. But surely I’ll give an update if any is up. As if anyone would care. i don’t, either. But I’m in the mood for writing. Isn’t that what blogs are for?
