Kinds of an Injured Heart What comes into your mind when you hear the phrase 'injured heart'? Maybe something physical? Or maybe you think it's something like a wounded, broken heart? Both are very painful, traumatic, and sad, and both have the possibility to heal. Having an injured heart prevents you from functioning at your best. It gives you the feeling of discontentment and despair. It takes away your courage and faith. It brings you to a place you never wanna be in.…
I need a distraction Work is a good type of distraction. It's a good thing I am currently working. As in I am on duty right now. To be honest, I don't really know how I feel. I feel so many emotions- different kinds of emotions. I am mad, I am sad, I am hurt, I am relieved and I am nervous. I can't say I am having a breakdown. But I am so close to it, I guess. What makes me mad is that my pain is not acknowledged. It's like, it isn't something important, and feels like my…
Is it okay to share your password to your partner? This has been one of the reasons why couples fight and claimed to be one of the reasons why a partner trust the other. Especially if it's a social media password and/or the mobile phone password. It seems that for other people, sharing your password to your partner is one way to determine the level of trust in your relationship. However, there are also those who likes to keep each other's privacy. Fight starts when one likes…
We stayed in an unusual home. Yesterday, we went out of town to attend the 84th birthday of one of our family friend. The location is about 3 hours drive from our 1ahometown. It was our first time, actually, to go to their home. We met because they rented one of my family's property and opened an alfresco typed Korean restaurant. We've been friend since then but never got the chance to visit their hometown until yesterday. We didn't know anybody else other than those who…
Now, who's the fool? I knew he was fooling around. I knew he was secretly meeting someone else. I knew he was cheating on me. And I knew he fell out of love. The thing is, he didn't know I knew. I kept my silence all those years. I watched him and let him lie to my face. My feelings were so strong that I chose to keep silent. I let him fool me. At least that's what he thought -he fooled me. But I think I can say that he didn't really actually fool me. At least not in the way…
Let me love you part 5 [final] Jenna was silent. Morgan got up and offered her a drink. He remained as casual as he could. Trying his best not to hug Jenna. When Morgan handed Jena the glass, she cleared her throat and tried to start talking. 'I missed you' the only phrase she was able to come out with. Morgan looked a bit confused and Jena felt awkward about what she said. Morgan hugged her tight and says he missed her as much. Jenna felt relieved and tears fell down her…
Expectation and Disappointment It hurts when you got disappointed. Especially when you're expecting it to someone you care about. They say, expectations hurt. That may be true. But I think, it's the other way around. Expectations don't hurt. It's the disappointment that does. Expectations turned into disappointments are what's painful. It's really not just the deed itself but also the people you were expecting it from. Sometimes, if only not for the person you had the…
Sanity left the room.. oh wait, it's back. My mind is blank. As the night deepens, I am becoming more anxious. I am becoming more annoyed. It was supposed to be a lovely day. It was supposed to be a celebration. A happy day. A happy night. But all my effort washed out. The thought of security vanished just like that. In one snap. Have you ever felt like you were saving your money for something that is essential in your daily life and you didn't want to worry about how to…
Let me Love you (Part 4) Jena could not believe what she just heard. She doesn't know what to feel. Confusion is what surrounds her now... *"Lock the door when you go, will you?"* she told Hank as she walked towards her bedroom without looking back. She went into her bedroom and sat on her bed. She now knows why Morgan was so upset. He surely knew Hank knows about the proposal. Morgan always told Jenna that Hank might have a feeling for her but she assured him that they're…
When there was me and you I remember when you were still here. When there was no one or nothing more important to you but to make me happy. When all we have was love and understanding. When there was only 'us'. No other 'she' or 'he'. I remember when we used to walk on the street with your arms on my shoulder and holding each other's hands. The time when even the distance didn't bother us no matter how far we walked. The time when we eat street food and just sit in the…
Do I really need to change? Change is a very broad subject. We change for the better, we even change for the worse without us realizing it. We change because of our beliefs. We change because of the demands in our surroundings. We change for ourselves, we change for other people. Change is everywhere. Like what we always read: "Change is inevitable." I would like to talk about changing for other people (and yourself) for this article. Is it really necessary? I mean, do we…
At Last, Roblox is back Roblox was down for a couple of days. There has been an outage in the system, I think. Roblox has been one of the games my son and I are playing together. This is how we bond sometimes. I was forced to play Roblox one time so he can have someone to play with. I wasn't so fond of online games. I only loved WARROCK. That's the only online game I played. Well, except for the mobile games I played, if you'll consider that. Like Farmville, Candy Crush,…
My Halloween when I was a kid It has been, what, 2 years since the pandemic started? And since that day, almost all occasion has never been the same. Well, at least, here where I live in. Our 2019 Halloween, the first Halloween since the quarantine was very sad. I couldn't believe I wasn't able to go to my father's grave to pay my visit. It was supposedly the first time I was able to since I came back from Manila. We went to the cemetery 5 days after Nov 1st. We just lit a…
I'm sad and struggling. Does this make me a sinner? Many people think that being sad is somewhat a sin. When depressed people open up, others say, "that's because you don't pray often..." or sometimes they say, "you're overacting..." This is sad because your emotions are valid. Being not okay is not a sin. Even the most devoted people are not exempted from feeling these emotions. No human is exempted from depression or being sad or struggling. However, there are ways that we…
What made you join Netflix? Netflix is one of the popular streaming services worldwide right now. Even students have their own subscription. There are tons of variety of series and movies to choose from. It's also user-friendly even to kids. And who doesn't like the 'Profile' option? For as low as Php150 (about $3) you can have a subscription to Netflix. This subscription is for mobile phones only. Good for students. For only Php549 (about $10.82 or $11) you have the premium…
To give up or not to give up? When is the best time to give up and move on? Is there even the best time to do so if you really like or love what you do or the person? Aren't we supposed to fight for something (or someone) we love? Giving up isn't as easy as we think it is. It takes a lot of courage and it needs the right mindset for you to truly move forward. It's as hard as forgiving if you ask me. That's why many people chose to resist rather than give up. I mean, there's…
Stuck I've spent the entire weekend thinking about what to write. It seems I've grown too used to not writing that I can't even think of a single topic to write. It's sad. Honestly, I miss writing so much. I don't know why I can't find the perfect topic. I have so many things in my draft (on my PC) but all I can do is write a single or two sentences and that's it. I can't continue. I would if I can. I spent all night thinking about how to continue my stories. I have, I…
Broken Testimonies Many people judge a story depending on how well behaved the person in the past. Many people find it more satisfying listening to testimonies from someone that's been obedient, someone that persevered with fewer struggles, someone that waited patiently with faith. Testimonies like when you waited for the right one and finally came. Testimonies that state how they kept their faith while waiting for the big break at work. These kinds of stories are more…
If you want to be trusted, just be honest Some people demand trust like it's their privilege. Like, they're entitled to be trusted in an instant. What they don't realize is that trust is earned. Trust is given to those who earned it. And if you were given at least the benefit of the doubt, you should be grateful and you have to prove to that person that you are worth the risk. Trusting someone instantly is risky. You don't know whether it's the right thing to do for you…
So-Called Lover (VI) Sometimes I think that kiss was a bad idea. Things became awkward between me and Jackson at school and he's been trying to avoid me for days now. He still talks to Samantha. They're okay but when it comes to school, I don't know how I'd approach him as Chloe. Sometimes I also don't know how to pretend everything is okay when I talk to him as Samantha. I never thought lying can be this hard. I never thought that pretending can make you feel so heartbroken…
It hurts... But you don't know that. We all have different ways on how we react to pain. Every person has his own version of what pain is and how to react to it. Don't expect other people to hurt less just because it hurt less to you. Mind is very unique. You may think alike sometimes but you can't possibly think the same thing all the time. It's just impossible. Don't hurt someone with words while you're mad. The moment you're not, you cannot take away the pain your words…
So-called Lover (V) It's already past 9 in the evening and Jackson is still waiting for Samantha. We've been trying to call her but her cellphone's dead and her mom won't answer my call. At least that's what I told him. I told him her mom won't answer my calls and that maybe she's busy. He's becoming to get disappointed with Samantha and becoming really upset about the situation. He laid down and covered his face with his hanky. I think I heard him snuffled. Is he crying? I…
So-called Lover (IV) It's been months since Jackson and I met. I've learned how to get through every day without thinking of any consequences and jealousy in my head. Maybe because I haven't witnessed Jackson be sweet to other people except for me or should I say, Chloe. He's been very close to me since she met "Samantha". Jackson and I (Chloe) have been hanging out since then. Even just the two of us. We go home together, go to school together. It seems like I'm his…
So-called Lover (III) I know that time will come he would want to meet me and use Chloe to make that happen so I have been thinking of ways on how to do that to make him stop asking. And what I've thought was really really insane. But I don't have much choice other than to just tell him I am Chloe, do I? I want to ask my closest cousin, Erin, to pretend to be me and meet up with Jackson even just for a moment just so Jackson would think I'm real. And since Erin is from…
Once a cheater always a cheater..? Cheated and Cheater's view. This is a very popular line. People say this all the time especially to those who experienced cheating firsthand. People who were cheated on or someone they know were cheated. This becomes their way of thinking because of the pain it caused them. But is it really true? Can someone be something they are so consistently that it will never change? Will once a cheater always be a cheater? This article will be based…

So-called Lover (II) Later that night, Jackson called me and said he saw Chloe but was shy to approach her out of the blue. I told him it was fine. It's not like it's his mission to approach her! We talked again for hours and I didn't realize it's already 3 am. I bid my goodnight, but he asked me one thing I wasn't ready to answer when I do. He asked me about my social media account. I told him I don't believe in social media. That I only have an email account which he can…
Why do Filipinos love Karaoke? What is a party without karaoke? That's how many of us are during celebrations. If we can, we will have karaoke at parties. I mean not all kinds of parties of course. But for parties celebrated in the comforts of our homes, we'll have karaoke to sum up the fun. Just to give you a trivia... The karaoke machine was invented by Filipino inventor Roberto del Rosario in 1975 and it was called Sing-Along System. That's how Filipinos love singing.…
Take a rest, Pumpkin! There are times that you feel so tired. You think of things that you can do to make it right. Thinking that there has to be a way to make them loyal, or faithful, or just to ease up a pain. Thinking if you deserve the pain and why you feel the pain. Love can be so consuming. Love can be so tiring. It comes with it. Love is not rainbows and butterflies all the time. There's THICKNESS. That's why we say 'Through THICK and thin'. But sometimes the…

So-called Lover (I) My name's Chloe. They call me Chlo. I don't even know why they make my short name even shorter but that's fine with me. Not much I can do about that. I have two best friends. Mary and Amanda. Out of the three of us, Mary has the most absurd mind. Cutely sometimes. She's like the baby in the group. She thinks kinda childish sometimes. But not the spoiled brat kinda way... I mean not all the time. We all have our moments. However, Amanda is the sporty one.…
