Hitting Up On Happiness Go to post

About two months ago, I have decided to finally start working on a book, and it wasn't really part of the plan that I would come up with two books - each being written simultaneously. Both consist two different plots; one being mainly a fictional chick lit, and the other, being some partly fictional biography based on my own personal experiences.

"Hitting Up On Happiness" is the title I have come up with for the "partly" fictional biography I have been writing, and unfortunately I have recently stopped working on it due to lack of time (and ideas, I suppose), plus the fact that I am honestly hooked on working on my chick lit. Hitting Up On Happiness is mainly a story of a girl who has been trying to chase her own "genuine" happiness since...well, she can hardly remember.

***


So yesterday, 9th December, was my Mom's birthday. I didn't spend it with her because I have chosen to travel a few miles away from home and see my favorite artist, Mike Posner, on his Manila tour. It was a little sacrifice, but it sure was all worth it.

Anyway to shorten things a little, I went to Manila and took chances on seeing Mike Posner on Glorietta 4 Park and Seventh High - and yes, I did see him. I did.

Here are some of the photos during his performance at Glorietta 4 Park:

See how adorable he is?

IMG_3098
Mike: "If I don't see you dancing or enjoying, then I'm gonna have to call you out and we will talk later."

IMG_3153
Was I the only one Falling?

He jumped a lot during his performances, which I really did appreciate! He was so cute like that!

IMG_3203
All game for the fan meet!

IMG_3204
He looked really fresh in that red orange shirt (which he later gave away at 7th High!) he wore after his performance.

Photos from the cd signing:

IMG_3213

IMG_3219
Alright, so the next thing I knew, it was my turn to get my discs signed!

IMG_3217
I handed him my little gift and letter after he had signed my albums, and he asked me if I want him to read it there. I told him he could read it sometime later because there were other people waiting for their turns and I didn't want to take much of his time - but Mike, being the coolest guy ever, insisted that he read it then and there!

IMG_3218
He was smiling at me as I was telling him what the gift was.

IMG_3220
Then Mike's official photographer moved over and started taking photos of what was happening! I was so hyped!

IMG_3221
Yes, he was reading it!

IMG_3225

IMG_3226

He then said "Aww" and smiled at me. I was surprised when he stood up and moved to his right and told me to come near! Mike gave me a hug!

IMG_3227

IMG_3228
This was me, thanking him for the hug and everything else! He was really nice and cute! And just before I finally left...

IMG_3229
I asked him to give me another hug! And Mike didn't fail me. He hugged me again! It felt so bizarre! Noticed how this photo is so full of emotions?

***


After the mall tour, my cousin and I went home to our condo and changed clothes. Next stop: Seventh High Club!

DSLRs are not allowed inside the club though, so we had to survive a few photos with my friend's digital camera (which we borrowed just before we left for 7th High)


DSC04164
Seventh High is all mad for Mike!

DSC04173
Ah huh, he took his shirt off!

DSC04172
See how sexy he is?


The whole Seventh High performance was a little short, compared to his mall tour, but anyway it was still worth it! My cousin, Cresa, and I surely had the time of our lives! We just love Mike so much!

And this was Cresa and I posing with our black dresses and heels before leaving Seventh High.

Anyone here who would like to agree that I, Giana Trinidad, 18 years of age, single, have successfully "Hit up" on my own happiness? Hence the introduction.

In need Go to post

So today I have been browsing to find a job, like seriously. Semestral break is coming near and I need to make use of my free time productively. Maybe I'll be opting to sign up for some on line writing jobs and the like. Writing is a passion I have always possessed anyway. I think making use of it to earn something is a wise decision. (:

Goodbye, childhood. Go to post

So last night, I went to the movie house and saw Harry Potter by myself. It was quite an experience, I must say. For the first time, I went out to see a movie alone, literally, without a friend or anyone I know. The idea of watching it and sitting next to a complete stranger kept me thrilled. I just realized that at times, it is really great to have a time of solitude for yourself. I can say I enjoyed it. It was like finding myself within my own self.

Anyways, the movie was awesome. I was teary eyed during the entire film because I know that once the movie ends, a part of myself is ending also. I will definitely miss Harry and the whole gang. I could've not imagined a better story than that of Harry's. JK Rowling, you are a genius. You have created the best fictional character I have known by far, Severus Snape. And from that day on, he had become my favorite. :'>

And to Neville Longbottom, I god damn love you. You turned out to be a very very beautiful man.

Strangers, Again Go to post

"Strangers, Again" by Wongfu Productions from YouTube

Hello readers! So today I've seen this mini movie on youtube(a couple of my facebook friends shared this video, and that was how I found out about it). At first I wasn't really that interested, it was only til then that I've seen a few post it that I got the eagerness to spend time to watch it.

The story is amazing and very descriptive. It provided specifications about relationships that actually occur but not everyone is aware of. I like how the short film possessed variety. It is a very realistic and touching story with a little bit of humor on the side.

I absolutely salute Philip Wang for writing the story and producing the video as well. I became more inspired to pursue my dreams of writing my own stories and creating my own films(which gave me another reason to own my personal video camera.)

All in all it is a very satisfying 16-minute buffer. Please do have time to watch it. :)

Trial and Error Go to post

Hi! Actually, I have been having second thoughts on creating this post, but since I have started typing already, I will continue it.

For the past days I have been talking to someone. I happen to really like that person (like - meaning as a friend, but not something deeper than that). I think he is an amazing person who understands me beyond specific circumstances. It was until tonight that I realized that using the word "think" (as used in my previous sentence) is wrong. It should have been thought.

Meeting people is risky. Well, to me, it is, since I am the type who gives in easily and trusts almost anyone. I do not use any of my senses at all. Whenever I talk to a person and find him/her interesting, I trust them right away. And that attitude of mine is something that, I think, I should replace.

Anyway, I think I will always be like that. I am someone who likes to make friends, someone who can't stand being alone, or being mute or quiet even just for a moment. I really like talking to people and telling them things; May it be whether making them laugh or making them feel curious towards what I have to say.

So technically, it hurts me to see that some are trying to avoid me. I would always say that they can tell me when they are annoyed or whatever. I'd be more than delightful to accept it, for I know that they are telling me how they truly feel. What hurts is that they would hide behind your back and not say a thing. Sometimes, even though it may sound a little harsh, you have to be straightforward and vocal about how you feel. That way, you make the person (you're talking to or interacting with) feel less puzzled about what you're really up to. At least they would know. At least I would know.

I guess that was just about it. I just hate it when people wear masks in front of you. Though, I don't hate anyone (acting like that) for the moment. It just...kinda pissed me off. I felt a little bit of disappointment on that one though.

And in every mistake we do, we learn. I just don't know if I learned since I am someone who swallows pride easily. But one thing is for sure: I realized making friends is like answering an algebraic equation --- sometimes, you have to learn how to deal with trial and error.
