2. If Only

What i love about this movie is: it is very unpredictable wherein it lets you think what will happen next but you predicted it wrong unlike other movies which lets you think what the next scenes will be and you can correctly predict it wherein the thrill and excitement will no longer be there. The movie is all about Ian Wyndham (Paul Nicholls), an English businessman who lives with his American musician girlfriend, Samantha Andrews (Jennifer Love Hewitt)  in London. The theme of this movie is love and sacrifice, all throughout, Ian is experiencing deja vus. I highly recommend this movie because it really shed me in tears at the end and i want you guys to experience the feelings that i had while watching it. 

3. The Fault in our Stars 

The Fault in Our Stars is a 2014 American romantic drama film, based on the novel of the same name by John Green. The film stars Shailene Woodley, Ansel Elgort, and Nat Wolff. Woodley plays Hazel Grace Lancaster, a sixteen-year-old cancer patient who is forced by her parents to attend a support group, where she subsequently meets and falls in love with Augustus Waters, another cancer patient, played by Elgort. Two teenager cancer patients begin a life-affirming journey to visit a reclusive author in Amsterdam. 

4. Paper Towns 

In Orlando, Florida, Quentin "Q" Jacobsen lives next door to Margo Roth Spiegelman, his childhood friend from whom he has since drifted, but still has feelings for. One night, when she climbs through his window and summons him on an all-night road trip of revenge, he cannot help but follow her lead. The next day, however, Margo does not come to school, and after a few days some consider her missing, others just conclude she left to an undisclosed location. Q soon learns that Margo left clues about where she would be going, and concludes she is in a particular paper town in New York state. Q goes there by car with his best friends Ben and Radar, Radar's girlfriend Angela, and one of Margo's best friends, Lacey. They are in a hurry, because they want to be back in time for the prom. On the way Ben gets very happy about the fact that afterwards Lacey will go to the prom with him. Margo does not show up at the assumed spot. Q stays, while the others return with the car. He finds her, but she is not in love with him. She left the clues just to let him know she is safe, not to invite him to follow her. Q returns by bus and Margo stays.

5. If I Stay 

Life changes in an instant for young Mia Hall after a car accident puts her in coma. During an out-of-body experience, she must decide whether to wake up and live a life far different than she had imagined or might as well surrender, on the other hand. The choice is hers if she would still go on. The main characters are Chloe Grace Moretz as Mia Hall and Jamie Blackely as Adam Wilde. I really love it's soundtrack specifically, Heart Like Yours-Willamette Stone.  

LATE NIGHT SHENANIGANS

Our night consisted of eating, walking, chilling and oh, eating again. Nights like these are one of the best especially when it is spent with the perfect company. We came up eating dinner at Army Navy (if you must know, it is a food hub that caters burger, burritos and such). Our night ended up in a coffee shop wherein we spent our most time at. We had "hugot" sessions, had a lot of confessions and shared different kinds of experiences.

Late night adventures are the best, especially when you are with your bestest friends. You come to discover unusual places and you get to experience rare activities. When i am with them, there is no place i would rather be; i will not be needing any other else aside from them because they give me comfort which not everybody can give me, they give me advises and how should problems be managed, they give me strength and motivation which i may use as i face hindrances and they give me affection as for they are the greatest friends that i have ever had.  

People nowadays no longer value friendships; others just don't know how to give importance to their friends. After all you have been through, after all the help you have given them, after all the laughters that you shared with one another, after all the promises that you vowed to each other and after all the ups and downs that you encountered with them, they still left. Let's not be negative, let us just consider it as a blessing because even though you get separated with each other, you still had great memories with them, they still made you happy despite of all the problems you both encountered, they still gave you inspirations and motivations, you once called each other as bestest friend, you once had extraordinary memories with them but not all  of those things could permanently happen, you just need to accept the fact that not all of the things you want to last would definitely last. Don't fill your head with what ifs, to where you will be pessimistic, hence, fill your head with what will be, to where you will be more optimistic. Be thankful to what your memories were, for sure time will come, you will be with each other for once more. I have just noticed that i made this blog post entitled late night shenanigans for me to tackle more of late night adventures which we had the other night but it kind of came out to be a friendship blog post, pardon me for that.  

AIRPORT THANGS

Unusual things are now about to happen, some things will temporarily change and some lives will no longer be as it is. People leave you not because they don't like you or they don't want to be with you, they leave you because they want you to have a great future ahead of you. They want you to have the luxury that you wish to have; They want you to experience a wealthy and an extraordinary life; And they don't want you to experience the destitute life that they once experienced. Of course, you're not used of not having them by your side, you constantly miss them and long for their presence but you need to sacrifice for a period of time because time will come, they no longer need to fly considering that they have already achieved what they want to achieve since the beginning.

My mom flied a day ago heading to Kuwait to find her luck there, hope she'd get a job immediately! There are much more things that i never told her before she left, messages i never sent and stories i have not shared: in fact, i am not showy, i am not very emotional when it comes to her, it's just i am not used to it and she has been there beside me throughout my existence but now, that she needed to leave, i haven't told her how much i will miss her, i haven't told her how much she means to me and i haven't told her how much i love her. I actually wanted to speak out those words to her but i am afraid that i may be shed in tears (as i said a while ago, i am not that emotional when it comes to her) I am weak and a heck of a crybaby. Yes, i hate to be labeled as a crybaby so i keep on resisting the tears that may came out of my eyes. I am not crying on the outside (i don't want my mom to see me cry) but i am actually hardly crying on the inside. It broke my heart, it saddened me, it weakened my wholesome but i just imagined how happy she will be as she now discover the world with the bestest man of her life, my dad.

AN OVERVIEW

Perhaps this is my new beginning, and i want all of my viewers/readers to get used of my blog spot to  where will i show and to where will i share the suspicious, adventurous, thrill-seeking and roller coaster life of mine. I want others to be inspired and be motivated on what this blog spot could bring. Let me eliminate the boredom in you and substitute it with entertainment that this blog spot would give.

I am not your typical stoned 16 year old. I am from Makati City, Philippines. I just graduated or should i say 'moved up' from junior high school and i will now continue senior high school in a Catholic School in Pasig so that i can pursue my dreams and obtain my goals.

An optimistic and somehow a pessimistic teen from the 21st century. A book lover, adventurer, traveler, thrill-seeker, joy-giver, happy-go-lucky and affable. Hope everybody could relate to the things i would share and i hope that everything would be as i expected it to be.

Join me as i go to such amazing places, as i eat unusual foods, as i ride thrilling rides, as i walk the bumpy journey, as i face ups and downs, as i make new experiences, as i share my photography skills, as i shoot the ball, as i hit the button, as the beat drops, as you know me well, as i continue to know myself and as i wonder even more with you guys! Enjoy
