I hit another car.

-

 We ended up a nice dinner and I was really having a good time with the new friends I have made courtesy of V. We were planning of going to a coffee shop we all love going to but I haven't been there in a while as well. 

I knew I am gonna have a hard time exiting the parking space. I was taking my time. I forgot to release the handbrake coz the car didn't move as I step onto the accelerator. So, I moved my hand to release the handbrake, forgetting that I was stepping on the accelerator instead of the footbrake, the car just moved quickly, my right side mirror hitting the next car's right side mirror and my right front wheel, scratching the driver's door side. It was really bad. I couldn't believe what just happened and what I just did right there. 

I was so lost and I know I had to talk to the owner of the car. One of the new friends I made today, Y, was Japanese and offered to interpret for me and the other person, he called the police too. V never left my side and had been comforting me about it and just making sure that I am well. I called Y, the previous owner of Blue, about what just happened and he had been looking after me and even called my car insurance company to inform them of what happened right away. 

So many people are involved, have been giving their precious time to make sure that things are covered and that I am well. 

This day unfolded so many things to me. From the early morning shitty drama about someone whom I knew eversince will not be good for me, I am so grateful for C for taking time to talk things over to me. 

It was quite fun flying my drone to take footages of cherry blossoms before it got stuck. I had to swing up a bark of a tree and it fell on its own. Then, I let it fly a few more times. See I had an accident, but I didn't stop doing it anyway. I just learned a bit better. Or so I think. I learned how to take it down from tree in case it happens again in the future. 

Then, I had made it to the long drive back to the city. The parking space was a challenge itself. 

The accident might have taken some of our precious time for having fun but it made me realize a lot of things: 1.) Life is wonderful, as always said by V. I just really needed to hear that. 2.) There a lot of people who also are passionate about development work, as like that of Y. 3.) It is okay to just be yourself, as how M would just be himself. 

I drove Y back to his hotel and V and I drove back to the city. 

I got into the shower, readied for bed and I know I had just to write this one before I go to bed. 

It ended well despite that accident. All is well that ends well. 

Thank you Lord for today. As I declare taking a break from social media, know that my blog entries will probably be more frequent as I decide to write down daily stories and realizations.

The Man Behind the Metaphors

The skies had been dark like a storm is coming. It had been raining the whole night long and when I woke up that day, I had fears that Sir Jonathan can’t come to school anymore due to the heavy downpour. I opted not to ask for I may just get the dreaded response. I prepared for school. Ate breakfast, brought my laptop since I thought I may just have to stop by a coffee shop after school and finish the item analysis I am doing. It was very difficult to get a ride. I wish I can afford to buy a car and save myself and my stuff from getting wet and so that I can bring more things to school for experiments and so that I can to all the places I wanna go to and I don’t have to worry about over-packing stuff and I have thought about all of these just because its raining heavily and I have no school bus anymore L When I arrived, the school seem deserted. No kids nor parents were at the gate. The guard told me that the principal decided to suspend the class lest the heavy rains cou...

11 Things I Will Miss

Malapit na malapit na! Magpapaalam na ko sa pagkabampira. Ang pinakaunang kong career ay nagsimula sa BPO hanggang sa napadpad na ko sa mga “captive sites” companies, at hindi ko ipagkakaila ang malaking pasasalamat ko sa   pagkakataong naibigay sakin sa loob nang mahigit anim na taon. Marami akong natutunan, maraming nais kalimutan at syempre mas marami yung nais kong manatili lalo na yung pagkakaibigan at mga aral sa buhay na nabuo habang ako'y nasa trabaho at nakikisalamuha. Dahil ako ay magbabagong-buhay, nag-isip ako ng mga bagay na talaga namang mamimiss ko pag umalis ako sa pagka nocturnal being. 1. Airconditioned Office - Ang init ngayon! Obvious naman, ang mga callcenters/corporate centers ay may aircons, may alam ba kayong hindi? Ipagbigay alam sa kinauukulan.  2. Ergonomic Chair - na most of the time ay ergonomic bed na din. Natuto akong matulog nang nakaupo.--those split-second moments of opportunity para makadaupang-palad si Sleep.  3....

Just a few days ago, I posted   This Is Plagiarism   together with other write ups. And I never thought I would have this kind of Reply from   Mr. Tripster   J   who called himself   The Epaloid Lover na Feeling Ako Yung Sinulatan Here’s the entire comment: Mr. Tripster 14 March 2013 08:39 This is epalness.... Hi! I'm fine. It's really great to hear from you. I'm not trapped in the future, I do not dwell in the past. I'm simply in your dreams. You have difficulty finding me because you sometimes look in the wrong places and in the wrong moments of the day. Therefore, I cannot manifest in your world. My present is a blur and yet it's blissful. But everything will be clear if we both make a decisive choice and a giant leap of faith in our lives. How soon? I really don't know. We don't ask silly questions. It's just that sometimes we need wisdom. I'd like to be there now. But I'm no master of my time. I'm n...
