Life going on

Life goes on. That should be the plan.

Sometimes, unfortunately.

The trouble with leaving is that you still have to worry about those you are leaving behind.

July & August 2016 RECAP #MonthlyRecap

You don't know it yet (because this blog probably has no followers yet, ha!), but I missed updating MoCCA for weeks. So I thought I'd do a two-in-one shot here to give you my #MonthlyRecap of what's been going on in my other, more popular (popular? ha!) blog over at WordPress. Well, to give you the links is more like it.

Read for yourselves how much different my two months went!

July 2016 Recap

August 2016 Recap

September's almost over. Just wait till I tell you the new stuff ;)

Since no one's going to read this...

...I think I can say with all honesty that I am sad. I just have to let it out. With all my trying to be positive, I have to tell you, I am a mess inside.

I bring the burden of the world with me, from my family, to my country, to the world. And it sucks 'cause I can only do so much. I don't even feel sad for myself, really, except when it comes to my babies whom I never got to hold.

It does not help that I often make the wrong decisions, however well-intentioned, however well I think I plan, however smart I think my ideas are at the time. Then they go blowing--exploding!--on my face. I feel sad especially if I cause others to be sad, especially not my loved ones.

I try to make things right, to work, but sometimes, somehow, I still end up like an idiot.

Things have not been alright for the longest time. I don't even have the heart to wish for the chance to bring back the time. Why? Because I don't want to make mistakes again., maybe not the same, but the outcome will most probably be wrong just the same...

*SIGH*

Okay, I'm okay now. Such is life. We move on. I move on.

Interview with This Vampire

Well, just finished answering a set of questions earlier, maybe more than an hour ago, and it's just (already!) 4am. Met a blogger who is doing a set of interviews with regards to love and relationships. I unwittingly managed to put myself in a position where I'm to share my own story. I didn't expect it, really, but I have to say I felt okay sharing myself. My answers were quite long, in fact, so I leave it to him to do the necessary editing.

Was I honest in my answers? Of course. Did I leave out anything? Absolutely. There are just some more private things that should remain private. Even when this blog was still in Multiply and on private mode, I still took care of what I wrote about. Let's face it, blogs aren't so private unless you keep out everybody but yourself.

Will provide a link when posted.

Aaaand...here is the link, as promised: MAHIRAP BANG MAGING NBSB? ELABORATE. It's cut in two parts so just start there.

ABOUT THIS BLOG & ME

From THE END JUSTIFIES THE JOURNEY

I actually created an About This Blog page here, but for some reason, I can't simply find it unless I go to the dashboard or simply type in the link. I'm really still not that familiar with Blogger. I don't find it that user-friendly, which was what initially turned me off and made me decide not to go public with this before.  

But now that it's live, of course, it needs an intro of sorts for wandering visitors that may happen to drop by. I mean, this blog just seems like it just sprouted without a proper hello.

So okay, to first let you know, this is ME at right. That's from my WordPress. As said there, if you want to find out more about me, just check out my ABOUT J.Gi page. (I'll do you a favor and just provide a link, so just click on those words *wink!*)

As for what this blog is about, this is the ABOUT MoCCa page I created for you. I would post it here, but I like how it's presented there :)

Now that we're better-acquainted, I hope you'll like the stuff you'll get to read here. It's a more personal blog than the other. You can check out which you'd like to follow (or follow both!!!), I won't mind. This one is really sort of still under construction because I'm going through years-old blogposts. If that confuses you, I suggest you read the MoCCa page...

Thanks for the visit!!!!



 

June 2016 RECAP #MonthlyRecap

Hi, guys! As said HERE, I have just found this Blogspot account again. There's an update to explain what I am doing here. That said, I am sharing to you my first--well, second--official Blogspot post, which is ironically, a recap of how my June 2016 had been.

It basically tells about my WordPress activities and Wattpad, so I should really just share a link rather than create duplicate pages. Here is my June 2016 Recap. Please feel free to browse there. Please feel free to come back here as well. I will be populating this place with new as well as "old" posts.

Have a nice Monday!!!

I Tried

I tried the wrong way and, of course, I got burned.

 I tried the right way and it fizzled, no matter how I fanned what little imaginary flame there was. 

Yes, Lord, I know: "This is all there is to it so quit thinking otherwise."

Gryn Wasabi's Sushi

Rating:	★★★★
Category:	Other

Okay, I'm not exactly an expert on sushi or sashimi or maki, but I do love eating those. So far, I haven't died from mercury-poisoning yet ;p

That aside, I really recommend Gryn Wasabi Sushi Bar. Why? Lemme start with the How.

It was my officemate's -- Kti's -- birthday on May 7 and mine was to be on the 11th. To make the story short, we decided to share in the expenses and, by my suggestion, we thought of treating the office to a package-order of sushi, for the sake of veering away from the usual stuff. Good thing was Kti remembered the sushi ordered by a friend before that only cost P450+ per package, with 80+ pieces already! Comparing it to better- known "brands" offering as many pieces, we more or less saved half of our money! Sure, we're cheapskates (LOL), but we're wise cheapskates *wink*...So needless to say, I got to order.

It was a really good buy, so to speak. I ordered mixed sushi (which was mixed maki and sushi really...I did wish for a sashimi) and it didn't prove to be of low-quality, even given the price. In fact, I loved that unlike most sushi's I've tried before, theirs didn't crumble at the slightest pinch of the chopsticks or pierce of the fork or scoop of the spoon even. Looking at the bilao, you'd think you've been had, but no, start counting and the number does reach 80+ (well, with some simply crab or whatever-seafood-they-were pieces).

Delivery was just on time, I think, and the presentation? Lovely, as you can see from the photo here. You've got a BIG mound of wasabi in the middle, too. Hotta-hotta!

If you want to order a family- or office-size sushi package then, I recommend Gryn Wasabi Sushi Bar. Nope, I am not affiliated with them. I don't have a friendworking there. And I'm not earning anything from this endorsing. Just sharing.

One minus-factor, though, is they don't have a website where you can view what they offer and see pics. The good thing is, they do have a Facebook account. I don't really like LIKE-ing pages that much, so don't expect a LIKE click from me.But I do like them. Another minus-factor, too, though, is I don't think they have big enough images presented in Facebook. In fact, my other officemates wanted to order something else from them but there were no big enough images to visually show what they offer. So no more new orders, thank you very much.

And so, if you find yourself in the mood for some Japanese food, think Gryn :)

At least

It's April. One year after I began. It really started as an experiment, but who am I really kidding, really? 

It has gone on long enough and yet, here I am. I began my goodbyes a few months back and it's been alright enough. But some goodbyes have been too hard to give. One goodbye, I've done over and over and yet I come back. This time, I hope it's for real. The last goodbye, I don't know if it's coming soon. Or at least, I'm just delaying the inevitable. 

My friend says that at least, I went through it. I really am not sure if I should be that grateful. But then, I got that advice from someone with a more whacked sense. She also says that at least I've made some people happy. Well, that is my only consolation. At least, it's what they know and I have to say that I, indeed, sincerely wanted them to be happy, made efforts even, because I am that kind of person.

It's been only a year but why do I feel like it's been several years already? What a phase it's been. 

When I finally say my last goodbye, I'm gonna miss this. I'm gonna miss them. But I have to.

I have to. 

NOT LATE!!!

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY,
