There are days when we wish to get back to routines we had in childhood. Like what my sister said, she wanted to go back to those days wherein we'd get home from school and aside from worrying about homework, the first thing we'd do upon getting home from was to sit in front of the TV, eat maggi with cheese and watch cartoons, usually tom and jerry. The feeling, the sense of security given by the consistency of the routine. And sometimes, when you do get the opportunity to do again what you enjoyed in childhood, you realize, it's nostalgic and fun, but you're just not the same person anymore. The memory will always be there and cherished but you can't live life re-living your yesterdays. People grow up and out of childhood. We soon become too big to fit into former perspective of ourselves. But it's a part of us we have to accept and come to terms with. Really, because of that discussion with a close one, I felt more at ease. More able, well capable of letting ...
“Talking to you was like watching a romantic-comedy movie.” Believe it or not, somebody actually told me that. Just in case you don’t know yet, I’m a sucker for romantic-comedy flicks. I mean, deep, thought-provoking films .I have a thing for unanswered love stories. I give you a list of my favourite quotes from some of my fave movies because I’m a pathetic loser like that. “If you love someone you say it, you say it right then, out loud. Otherwise the moment just… passes you by.” - My Best Friend’s Wedding This is one of my all-time favorites! I have seen this movie about 10 times already and cried every single time. When I was younger, I thought this quote meant that you shouldn’t be afraid to tell that person that you love him/her because 1) you never know if he/she feels the same way for you or 2) it might be too late already. Recently, however, I realized this meant that when you feel that thing in your heart, don’t keep it in. Eventually it might wear off and it won’t mean the s...
I miss my daddy. We live in the same house in the same city. I see him every day, we share a meal together but I miss him terribly. Like I mentioned before I hate growing up. Daddy is what we call him. My father never let us calls him anything but that. For the longest time, my daddy was my hero, my Superman. Still is. He’ll probably scoff if he read this but its true. My daddy still holds strong to that one childhood fantasy. He has never let me down in any way. At the grand old age of 24, I’m still sent back to my room to “wear something that covers you up” and still told to eat my vegetables. Last month I bumped my head on the corner of the table while bending down to fetch something When I came back home that evening, he has taped the corner.. He is a fine man and a brave one. He works with a pharma company and to my child eyes that was the only way to be. He has polio in one leg but HIS CONFIDENCE; ATTITUDE can put any normal man to shame. I remember him taking me to the pool at t...
