The Trivial Things my 27-year old Self Complains About

-


People my age tend to worry about having to start a family, a stable job and a man to complete the dream. Many same-age friends worry about it, but I never did. I get to question myself about it to but the thought of it horrifies me.

Just like the title of the post, I thought of things that bothers me a lot. I find these things very trivial yet so important to keep me at peace. The older I get, the more picky I become. I tend to worry about the kind of rice I buy, the coffee brand, and even the angle of my calendar that I randomly placed on top of my wi-fi modem. 

When I meet people, I check their nails to see if they are long enough to scare the crap out of me or not. When I meet someone on a date, I pay attention to their height and their talking voice.
When I meet with friends, I always find a reason to not go and get angry if they are enjoying without me.

I always ask myself why do people move so slow when I'm in a hurry? Why are clubs so noisy? Why do people really prefer to jaywalk than to actually use the pedestrian lane, and why do drivers tend to stop on pedestrian lanes and have pedestrians walk outside of the safety lines?

This is why I hate going outside because I had to deal with these things that continue to stress me out. People call when they can just text. Friends can just hang out with me without taking their other friends and force me to interact with them as if I wanted to do that to begin with.

And why on Earth people have to ask me what I do in my free time when I basically enjoy doing nothing at all?

I know, I sometimes tend to overreact but I am the type who is unable to adjust quickly to surroundings. I know what's right and wrong and people are definitely in the wrong (sometimes). I expect a lot of things to be perfect all the time, and if not, the way I react depends on how important it is. 

This blog might sound like I'm complaining but hear me out. I am pretty sure it's the same thing for you. If not, let me know the comments! c:

A Night at Bacolod's Baywalk

  I finally got the chance to visit Baywalk after many years. The last time I came here was in summer 2016 and back then it looked like it was a deserted place where nothing but parked cars and old tires piled up in the middle of the empty space. The lights weren't bright either, though, the security was available. This year, 2023, I decided to have a spontaneous night drive with my father and younger siblings. Our main problem was we didn't have money to pay for the entrance fee which costs PHP 20.00, but I was glad I received gift money from my aunt last Christmas and had been keeping it for this day. I actually expected a lot after they reopened it because I heard many of my friends who went to visit Baywalk, they said it was great.  But I was a bit disappointed. Nothing is new except for the illuminated displays in the place. For someone who has been a common visitor back in 2016, the place somehow felt much safer compared to how it was years ago.  The place was actua...

A New Blog for My Stories!

-
I first started reading fan fictions when I was in high school and I was captivated by the limitless scenarios one could imagine for a character. A lot of people may have a different impression (mostly negative ones) regarding fan fictions, but it does promote creativity to the writer. Sometimes, it is so difficult to find a certain muse or a model to base your characters with, especially with names, that I always end up using my favorite celebrities names to keep the story going.  Some fan fictions may include a lot of sexual stuff, but there are so many writers who aren't fond of it. Instead, they write fan fictions to express themselves, to inspire others and even to investigate a crime scene through the story. I personally tell that I am into teenage angst and romance kind of stories which tells the untold. Anyway, I'd just like to share my new blog here. I am currently working on a story feel free to check 'Writer's Notice' there. New Blog Here:  https://fanfi...

Bacolod City on January 1st

-

A few years ago, I used to visit my relatives on New Year's Day but things have changed since then.  I am not sure if it is just me or it is a part of growing up where you focus more on yourself more than other things.  I focused on spending time with my dad and my younger siblings. We decided to have a night drive with a tricycle around the downtown area.  We first dropped by Bacolod City Plaza where it was filled with illumination. It seemed that I should have gone when it was newly decorated because the lights would have been complete. When I came there, almost half of the illumination were broken.  It still pretty, I must say. I enjoyed strolling.
