Driving force

Have you ever had that dream that keeps on entering your mind. Playing with your thoughts. That goal in life that makes you stare out the window and lets you miss your train stop because of the awesome daydreams it brings you? I think everyone does, right? And with this, I'd like to share mine :)

I have always dreamed of owning and driving my own car...

hello! wanna hitch a ride?

my car is so awesome!


yes! excuse the pixelated and professionally edited pictures. hahahaha! i just wanted to emphasize a point here... and that is, I look good with and in a car. hihihi! so there. I really really want a car. it is one of my driving forces why I've immersed myself in this corporate world. why I've been enduring the 40-hour work week. and why I've been commuting to and from quezon city/makati/pasig even up until late at night, and sometimes even during weekends. well of course there's career growth and enhancement of knowledge, but having my own ride is one of the top items in the list. preceded by owning a house and having a beautiful family :)

Lately, this dream is sort of becoming a reality. It's slowly inching its way into my own hands. I asked the help of my tatay to find me the best car deal that I can afford at this point in my life. I will be turning 26 this year, which means that by the time I'm 31, the car debt is over and done with. And from there I can proceed to loaning some more (for my own family's future house, which I'll probably do with the help of the ever-loving husband to be). The different possible (and dreamy) scenarios have been haunting me the past few days... me driving to work... me driving to work while singing to the cool music playing on my car stereo... me driving with my boyfriend out of town... me driving... me driving... me driving... ahhhh! my mind is so flooded with pictures of me driving. hahaha. I really hope I can make this happen. And soon. Many thanks to my tatay who has been patiently searching and inquiring for me.

Don't worry, the next car picture that I'll be uploading with me in it would be of better quality. Not cropped. Not downloaded. Not pixelated. You know why? 'Coz it would be real!!! Please dear Lord, please!!! :):):)

Random Life Lesson #2

Avoid lukewarm friends at all costs. They are just plain emotional baggages. Lukewarm friends are those who are just  with you when it comes to certain topics of THEIR interest. They are also the ones to have a mediocre kind of relationship with you, and with the rest of their FB friends list, Twitter followers and BBM contacts list. No, Tam, your friendship with them is not as special as you thought it were.

At the same time, don't ever forget to keep in touch with those rare people who have never failed to make you smile and laugh (out loud), made you feel comfortable and were in one way or another your secret keeper. You know you have those true friends whom you have a certain connection with that does not change despite the time and distance apart. Those who will always be there whenever you need them despite your shortcomings.

Random Life Lesson #1

Never ever force yourself into other people's lives, not unless they clearly tell/show you that they want you in it. Another way to look at it: attach yourself to people who have shown mutual appreciation for everything that you've done for them and have exerted at least an equal amount of effort to be a part of your life. Otherwise, you may end up getting hurt and/or appearing like an idiot.
