only love.

Only love of a good woman will make a man question every choice, every action. Only love makes a warrior hesitate for fear that his lady will find him cruel. Only love makes a man both the best he will ever be, and the weakest. Sometimes all in the same moment. - Wicked to the werelion Haven.

Love's hard to come by, Edward; you should never throw it away just because it's a bad idea. - Anita to fellow vampire hunter Edward.

Instant Plant: Just Add Water

I'm not a plant person. Sure, I appreciate plants. I like plants of all sorts, I'm just not that dedicated to them. I can plant, water and fertilize just fine but I'm an impatient person (when it comes to plants) so I expect them to grow in a 24 hour span. I know, poor plant.

During highschool, we had gardening. It was part of our science classes. I absolutely dreaded gardening. It pained me since I knew that A LOT of plants would die under my watch (or lack thereof). That is sort of pathetic of me since my family has a farm and I grew up planting with my siblings and my dad. Thankfully, I passed my Science classes and highschool. I think my teachers pitied me or something. LOL. But thinking of the poor, defenseless plants that died due to my stupidity and impatience bothers me. *guilty conscience* I wouldn't want to tell my dad about that since I know he would be mortified to say the least.

This piece was written since I bought orange daisies today. I like daisies and the color orange. That aside, I bought a plant, didn't I? And I absolutely do not want this plant to die just because of my impatience. I really need to remind myself that plants are living things too and therefore have needs like I do. Plants DO NOT grow in a 24 hour span but it takes them days, weeks, months, and years unless they die, of course. I really need to be (MORE) patient when it comes to plants. My lolo would turn in his grave if I let this plant die. *faints*

Please plant, don't die on me.

Yosh :)

I got my instruction permit this morning so I can finally drive again, with adult supervision though. I'm back to square one but that's fine with me since I'm not exactly a pro at driving yet. :) I am a scary driver. *cue maniacal laughter* Tsh. I'll improve, have faith. *hahaha*

Seriously, getting a license back in the Philippines was way easier than getting one here. There are a lot scary drivers back in the Philippines but it's scarier to drive here since the police actually catch bad drivers. :) In the Philippines, you either don't get caught or get caught because of a corrupt cop. Hey, I'm not saying all cops are bad but they do exist. No offense.

I'll just have to do my best and practice driving again so I can drive myself to school. Next thing I have to do is look for a job, part-time or something like that. I need to earn money for gas and allowance and other needed necessities. Redundant but true. LOL. Growing up. I'm growing up. *hums excitedly*

too late the never

almost midnight. i wonder if this is like a fairytale gone wrong. but then again, my life is never a fairytale, more like a recurring nightmare or a horrid movie. almost midnight. i would think that cinderella wasn't paying attention to the time when she was at the ball with the prince. oh come on, why would she? she was at the ball with the prince. her prince. well, all's well that ends well, in her case that is. as i said, my lifestory isn't as complex and coordinated as a fairytale. there are no balls, fairies or fairy godmothers, evil stepmothers and sisters, typically handsome princes in a one horse open sleigh and all that jazz. i am not bashing fairytales or any of those copyrighted materials.

i'm actually way off base. i just had an epiphany. a cruel epiphany. yes, epiphanies can be cruel. my epiphany is simple. it's so simple it shouldn't be an epiphany, really. i'm just so darn good at pushing people away. leaving them in the dust when the clock strikes twelve. must be something cinderella and i have in common. but hold your horses, when i say leaving people behind, i mean exactly that. i'm not talking about princes, handsome or not. although in this case, my epiphany is related to a guy. oh he's a prince alright. just not mine. he's someone elses's prince, maybe that's why i left him. but i realize that i shouldn't have left him completely, just distanced a little bit. he was my friend, is actually...but i'm just not sure. i'm such an idiot. we don't leave friends behind. because there really is no clock that's going to signal when time's up and everything should go back to being ordinary and full of mice. i'm an idiot for having huge amounts of pride that i don't see my friends as friends and thinking to myself that i'm better off alone. stupid kat. i push people away but then yank them back to my side when it's convenient. i really am an idiot for thinking that this is a fairytale and i'm part of it. for thinking that it's okay to follow cinderella's example and ditching a friend. too late the never. this is me wishing that this shouldn't have happened, but now it's too late. because right now, i'm missing a friend and i don't have the other shoe or any of his shoes for that matter. but since i'm the one who ditched him i should be the one looking for him. we don't walk away from a friend, but if we do we turn around go back. maybe that way, we'll meet each other half way. shoeless or not.
