" Facebook Memories"

Memories is defined as something we remember in the past, a recollection. All things that happened beyond the time you are reading now are already considered memories.

Sometimes, while sitting in a corner or lying in our beds, we suddenly reminisce about the past. Lucky if we could still remember it exactly.

It can also be just seeing something, perhaps a picture, or anything that triggers a particular event, someone, etc. Then sudden emotions will come rushing, and you will find yourself smiling, crying, or frowning. Whatever it is.

Today's generation was so lucky as social media was already present. Unlike during those times when we were using film to take photos and "developing" a picture plus buying a Photo album was kinda expensive. If you are not that lucky, you will still lose those memories as prints didn't last. It fades, just like what happened to my photo.

Can you still see me? I was happy seeing this old photo as I saw my slim figure, lol! This was photographed way back in 2011. I was in college. Somehow I felt remorseful as I wasn't able to keep this well. I had a lot of pocket-size pictures back then every time there was an event at school. Sadly most of them were kept by my Ex-boyfriend. Now I am wondering what he did with it? Ahmm maybe he burned of all it! He didn't return anything to me.

==============================================================

Back to memories, just today, Facebook notified me about some things that happened in my life exactly today.

DISCLAIMER: Please do not laugh. What you are about to see are some of my photos, perhaps from a decade ago.

OMG! I laughed upon seeing this like, SERIOUSLY? Why do I look like a gay? I was in my third year of college, and I think the school year had just begun. We are celebrating an acquaintance party. Together with me is my best friend.

I remember my hair was too short at that time because of ROTC, so it was in a ponytail. Yet since it was still short, I put a lot of hairpins on the back. I even had the decency to set this as my profile picture. Forgive me, folks. During that time I felt so pretty, GGSS ( gandang-ganda sa sarili).

On the same here, yeah, I know it's not the same day. It is just I uploaded these pictures on my Facebook on the same date, which is today. You see, it wasn't like today. Back then, we needed our digital cameras to be connected to the computer or scan some pictures.

This one is the opening of Intramural at school, and we are performing some field demonstrations. YES, I was there. Can you spot me? I may not be a good dancer, but at least I can do some cheering.

You might be surprised at how I looked eleven years ago in the following picture. I was still a student back then and did a lot of physical activities. Plus, I always exercise and jog as required.

I can't believe I was so dark-skinned here, maybe because I am always on the field performing drills ( parade and review) or teaching students.

SURPRISE! All I can say is that I missed my slim arms and collarbones. They are now gone and seem to have left me forever.

I think I was slightly skinny two years ago as I stared at this photo. I was constantly working out for two months, and this was the result.

This was already during the pandemic, and as you can see, only a few people reported back to work. No one is with me in the elevator except the one taking pictures.

Now I was thinking, where is that dress I am wearing. I couldn't find that now in my closet. It seems I already disposed of it due to the reason that it no longer fits. I know I can still achieve that body frame if I work hard. The problem is consistency and motivation. I always felt too lazy to exercise and forgot I was on a diet every time I saw food. Not a help that my husband always supports me to eat anything that I crave as he likes me chubby. " Di wow."

Anyway, take you, Facebook, for showing me some memories today. Somehow it gave realization of how far my old life is from today. 

How about you guys? Have you recently seen some of your memories? I will be glad to read yours.
