  • it’s another not-me day

    I have been hollowed out and carved like stone which is, so curious.  i am not stone i am brittle, i am weak i am breakable in the best ways a malleable little thing can be Life update / context I have a problem with dealing with emotions. If I have too many of them –if…

  • 27, 28

    27. Baby, it’s cold 0° and it’s fine I don’t have a jacket on. I crave the cold, It fills me up, cradles me close. Teeth chattering, I feel less & more alone. 28. maling tanaga pinilit kong tastasin tahi ng aking gawi,  sa loob naging pansin laman nati’y isang yari. Life update  Tanaga: 7-7-7-7…

  • #FallingInLove with Debate. Again.

    I’ve said before that while debate will always be one of my heart’s greatest joys, I don’t (won’t, can’t) actually show my love consistently. The past three weeks saw me being conspicuously and unashamedly missing from trainings. Sometimes it’s because I study, or go to class, or have a meeting. Most of the time it’s…

  • Some debate motions that I should be able to grasp, but still don’t. (Exhibit A in the ‘Jari is actually very slow on the uptake’.)

  • aside/ a nice healthy outpouring of emotions

    tweeted “in the mood for murder” that is to say, i would like to kill every single member of humanity i encounter in the next couple of minutes, and in all honesty it is only the tediousness of clean-up and law evasion that restrains me, because: there are people who speak so loudly or who enter…

  • i am a strong independent woman who will not hide from you or from anything except, you know the parts where i’m broken or the times when i cry those,  are just mine)

  • the opportunity is out there

    the opportunity is out there; you just have to take it. Several people have asked me: Why AIESEC? Why Exchange? And sometimes I answer that it’s because I want to change my life and the life of others. I want to put myself in a different world, even if it’s just for one summer. I…
