#18: The Power of the Remy

She is filled with wisdom and is a true visionary.  But what I love most about her are her stories.  She can tell me about how our first house was built over and over again, and I will never get tired listening (cos she does, and I'd always pretend like its my first time to hear it, haha).  People say I look like her.  I say, I try my best to be at least half of who she is.  She'll always be the wind beneath my wings.  I hope she knows how much I appreciate her.

#17: At the end of the day...

it's just a nose pierce.
And a little surprise.
And a delayed gratification.
And courage.
And freedom.
And this is it.
And...just a really cute nose ring that makes me really happy.

I really hope I get to feel and be like this in more things. Just jumping off to new stuff and do things I've always wanted.

One for the books.  More adventures to go. But this I profess, I won't get a tattoo. Promise. ;-p

#16: How did it ever get to this?

There's something so admirable seeing my Dad ever so relaxed, with his shades on, sitting as if he's at the beach or something.

When in fact he's just in our terrace, watching painters paint our walls Mocha.

And he's happy.  In fact proud.  About our new Mocha walls.  

And just like that...I'm envious, yet happy.  

I know I can be like him in so many ways if only I would. 

#15: Thoughts in Shower

Thought bubbles
Here and there
Thoughts in shower
Thoughts in my room
Thoughts
and nothing is heard.
But people think
They see it.
And so
The most predictable thing
happens.

Thoughts, only
they're no longer yours.

#14: On Dreams and Aspirations

Kv:  What if your dream is just to be the most beautiful person on Earth?
Ria:  Haha..I guess that's just...sad.
Kv:  Haha.  But you know, we cant really judge what's fulfilling or not.
Ria:  Ano kayang feeling non pag gising mo sa umaga?  Haha.
Kv:  Hahaha...Mmmm...(trying to imagine)
Ria:  I guess we'll never know.  Haha.  I guess we'll never know how it is to be beautiful.
Kv:  Hahaha..
