wimp

did i tell you this week jayson ( the new korean guy i have been hanging out with) went to my house and actually introduced himself to my father? to make it even more interesting, this guy talked to my father in front of our house when i was nto there. i was appalled. and for the first time in a long time, based from the gesture jay did, the fear haunted me again. and this time, the fear grew immense.

just couple minutes ago, i started scribbling my conflicting emotions in my diary. i had left it alone for four months now. the last entry was still about my ex. and i did not know what to write. i guess, no matter how i am trying to ignore it, i could not deny that i am somewhat magnetize by jay's charm. i really could not explain what i am feeling either. it's just...it's been a while.

and jay... it's just he is not only my physical preference ( chinky eyed, oriental looking, tall , clean nails and shoes!!!) but his qualities really mesmerize me ( very intelligent ---goes to UC Riverside [ one have to have a 4.0 before one can even enter to UCR especially if you ar Asian], he loved his family and very responsoble [his father had a stroke this year and jay had taken over his dad's responsibilities at home], works very hard at everything ( for instance, since i had been ignoring him for the past few days, he has been making the move to get to know my entire family hahaha).

little does he know that the only reason why i had been avoiding him is that i am scared to even like him. i wonder if he realuzed i have been trying to look for something in him that would completely throw me off. the bad thing is, i have not. each and every day he dared to call me or visit me and i turned it down, the more i felt guilty and returned his calls. and we talked even more. and i discovered more things about him that attracts me.

i'm not in love yet. i just like him. just plain like that because i am holding off from going beyond liking anyone right now. sometimes, the brain can not stop the heart from closing its doors to the world. i thought i was strong enough to witheld my emotions to anyone. i realized i am human. a human that no matter how many times i shielded my heart into liking anyone, the emotions still unlocked the gates of pretending.

all in all, i realized i have been pretending to be numb. i kept all my lingerings to myself. i locked myself into not feeling anything. i thought i was good at it. but later, as i have been haunted by this fear again, i contemplated, and i realized...i'm such a wimp with this thing called love and i need to get over it and face it.

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.
