note to self

Don't forget to laugh. Stress is just an illusion!

STOP

stop worrying, stop planning, stop thinking, just stop everything and breathe...

with all the shit in the world there will be enough to go around so you can just stop and delay your stress because i'm sure its what you'll be doing for the rest of your life. yes it sounds depressing and a bit too cynical but if you think about it, it's not all bad yes the world is badly made, yes you can't fix it and yes you have to live with it. but without the stressful and irritating, half the fun is gone! Yes...the fun. Yes I'm crazy but hear me out.
how can you experience the lovely side of things without the bitter? how can you really appreciate summer if you haven't experience flood in katipunan while being stuck in Seattle's for 4 hours? how can you say that you love your boyfriend if you haven't seen him almost dead drunk while still insisting to take a "cheesy" picture? how can you promise your best friend a lifetime friendship if you haven't cried with her at 4:30 in the morning while trying to stop yourself from falling asleep? when will you know you have a serious relationship if you haven't had a summer fling? how can you say to your sisters that you love them if you haven't suffered for 2 weeks because you're giving them the silent treatment? well no you can't...at least it is hard to say, right?

so, take my advice and just breathe...because you'll be going through a lot more hassles, heartaches and tremendous amount of stress - without it you can't say you have really experienced...anything for that matter.

relax... watch a movie=)
