While everyone is rushing to do the minicase book term paper of some sort about censoring rap and roak music, I am here in the digital imaging lab...and killing time.

Today has been quite a drag. It's just I'm quite disappointed of my friends' behavior and performance in school. Most of them are slacking. I called Sheila up just couple minutes ago before Steve took me out for lunch, (Thanks for the lunch, Steve!Thanks for making me feel better.) and she was rushing our paper due in about an hour. And then she added, she "wasn't worried about English 102" because that "class is not transferrable to Cal-State LA." Don't get me wrong, Sheila is a very good and close friend of mine but it just the mentality she has on things that sets me apart from her. For instance, when I am striving to accomplish things, she's on the lay back side. The paper we had, I rushed it, too but it's just I guess, I get done just right on time. And I am relieved. Her, she rushed it couple hours and then if she doesn't get it done, she makes a comment "ahh, I'll turn it in next week." Was that an excuse? Homeworks are responsibility. And one is responsible for everything assigned to them but why is giving excuses valid? Oh well, I am not upset at her. It's just I know she can much more than that. It's just she's responsible and all and I guess, I was expecting too much from her.

I chatted with Manong Takeshi last night and it's great to have these fun conversation with him all the time. We just talk about life and fun times and bad times and wacky times....and "censored" things. I enjoy having these open talks with him about life. Takeshisan, I thank you dearly for understanding your "ading" always and never getting sick and tired of my endless dramas. Please know that your little sis Norichan is here for you always.

I just parted with Scuba Steve couple minutes ago. I am flattered to know that he " looks up to me." I don't see myself as an inspiration. I had things in the past that I was not proud of...wrong set of friends and peer pressure and the tempting devilish environment...but it made me feel good that there's one person who puts me in that high levels of respect and honor that my mom didn't think was appropriate for me to be in. Steve said he has great respect for me for my intuitions and achievements in life. He said he has never met someone whose as smart and responsible as me. Was that supposed to be a good thing? It was for me. All week long, all I heard was negative putdowns against me. It was like a smooth melody running through my ears to find out that I inspire someone to be somebody. Thanks Pol-pol....I am here to always listen, confide, help and be there for you, whenever you need me.

MY SILENT REVERIES
writing is my passion. i created silent reveries years ago to vent out things i could not tell the world. it was my private, modern tech approach to scribbling my thoughts and emotions in a journal. in here, i can feely be who i am. i could cry my woes, i can love freely, i can grieve over a broken heart, i can celebrate the joys in my heart, i can rejoice with my accomplishments, i can tell stories of remarkable friendships and unforgettable connections i made with extraordinary people SECRETLY AND SILENTLY without worrying people might judge me. i hid under the name PINAY FREESTYLE.

but eventually, some people gained access to my secret place. so i opened my doors to them in the purpose that i could inspire them: to be better versions of themselves and to share themselves to the world. slowly, i embraced my readers as a part of my life. i welcomed the strange idea that my untold life stories and unconcealed revelations could be of help to others, to love and accept themselves as they are. and i, i came out from the animosity. i eventually became just the regular LEN - the nickname my family & friends call me.

i developed stories of love, of letting go, of falling in love all over again. i made great friendships. but if there's one thing i was particularly proud of, it was my undenying love for the LORD. i wrote and made soul searching, heart wrenching entries i entitled, "SPIRITUAL REVERIES" which you will find many here. it was my productive way to heal myself from twinge and while i am at it, i could also mend others spirits along the way and bring them back up to par with their faith and relationships with God. it has not stop there. it's still a constant journey.

and so, for as long as i can, i vowed to tell my memorable reflections,i have unmasked the hidden me. and the seeking and searching of life's meaning and purpose is not over. LIFE is a long road of discovering. and i still yet to discover many wonders of this world and satisfy my unending curiosity. but be warned. you can either love me or hate me. but i don't care. this is me: sripped and bare as i can be.

so i invite you into my chaotic unperfect world. join me in my whirlwind new travels of diving into the unknowns. let me share my life with you all over again. come in, as i tell you my SILENT REVERIES.

love,
len


DISCOVER ME: who is the lady behind the blogs?



"I want to have a personal light, the glow of oneself that comes from sheer willpower, the light of someone who has made important sacrifices in the name of things I think are important."

---Paulo Coelho's "Eleven Minutes"

my name is len. people always tend to judge me without discovering who i really am. i might look intimidating, a typical shop girl, and i act like a crazy party girl on the weekend. but i actually have brains. and i own an even bigger heart. the truth is, beyond the louis vuitton bags, beyond the lavish parties, the excessive passion to travel and the desire to get to know the world, if you got to know the REAL ME, i am really just a simple girl. my only desire is to be loved for who i am.
