31st of August

I got up pretty early yesterday. I went to school, stayed there for a while and then headed off to Greenhills to get rid of my old phone. I bought the thing for like 12k 7 months ago and wow did its value depreciate fast! They bought it for 3k. I was so stunned. I couldn't believe how fleeting something's value can be. That's why I settled to a phone that even though isn't all that fancy, was nice and something I liked enough not to lose. Hahaha.

So okay, we were in Greenhills, took brunch and watched the Devil wears Prada which might I add was fantastic. It was hilarious and smart and it was.. great. Just great. I now worship Meryl Streep. She was so GOOD. Truly a legend. Anne Hathaway wasn't bad either, if anything I think she was perfect for the role. And ooooooh. The CLOOOOOOOOOTHES. I felt like I was in actual Paris watching a fashion show. Two thumps way, way up!

So after a delicious 2 hours at the movie house with Miranda and Andy (Meryl and Anne's characters) we tried surprising Max by bringin her ice cream but no, we were surprised as it turned out she left the house by minutes before we got there. Hehehe. So we just headed to Eastwood, ate dinner at Pancake House and watched You are the one... Don't look at me. It was THEIR idea to watch.. but the movie was nice. I guess I still am a sucker for love stories and happily ever afters.. For a time there I thought I was done dreaming of a happy ending but yesterday proved I'm not so stoic as I thought I was. Hahaha.

Anyway, we took Niko home and went over to Max's to get the phone I bought from her mom's friend. Like I said, it's nothing fancy but it's cute, it works and I already feel a special bondage with it. Hahaha.

My day would have been perfect if not for a very surprising announcement from one of my friends. I am still in a daze from the news.. I don't want to elaborate any further as this isn't my story to tell but I have this to say.. Nothing good comes out of haste. I hope you know what you're doing. Try getting to know yourself a little bit more.. You say you're not a kid anymore, but why all the rash decisions? Why all the flippant acts? Adults call the shots when it needs to not when they want to. Don't complicate your life with all these adult complexities. You can't even take care of yourself and already you're plunging into something this serious!?! I don't know what you're trying to pull here but I genuinely hope you figure things out. I will keep praying that you be enlightened and be guided. I just hope that when guidance comes your way, you'd open the door, let it in and listen. Don't subject yourself to this. You don't deserve a life this confusing and it doesn't have to be.. Think of your parents. They DO NOT deserve all this. I'm not expecting you to listen (cause you never did anyway) but try to think things through. If you need to talk to anyone, you know where to reach me. I will be here, I will listen until I understand.. Make me understand. In the meantime, until you're ready, get in touch with yourself. I'm pretty sure she misses you.

Choices. These are what defines us and I hope we all take a minute out of our busy days to reflect. Stand infront of a mirror. Do you like the person you see? Do you like what she's become?

More importantly.. Do you recognize that person?
