5 minutes of ventilation

{ I am at work. I only have 5 minutes to type all of my frustration ....so here it is]

i attempted to break it off with han before i left for vegas because it was hurting me to be far from him. i hung up after that conversation and turned off my cell and off i went to las vegas.

during one of my moments having fun at a club with my friend...han texted me that not because he does not text me or call me or see me as often as we want does NOT mean he does not think of me, nor that he does not miss me. in fact, he stated in that text that he will respect my decision if i wanted to let him go. but it was killing him. and at the end of that text, he reaasured me that he really LOVED me and being away from him is killign as much as it was killing me.

it's hard to be far from him. sometimes, i iwsh to trade everything i have just to have him sit right next to me wiping my tears telling me that everything will be okay.

*sigh

when i got home from las vegas, i sent him a text apologizing for my demeanor and told him that i want him in my life....and it's just...i miss him so much it hurts.

i have not talk to him for two weeks now. school and work has been keeping me busy. the time difference between is so complicated that our calling schedule never match. now, i wonder if what he was thinking. perhaps, it's me. i am minimizing myself to call him. why? i want to know if he will make a drastic move ....if he will tell me how hurt he is for me not talking to him too long. why am i doing this? so i can find out if this guy really love me.

my mom wrote me a letter telling me that she noticed something has been bothering me because i have been acting strange lately. she said that if i am ready to talk, she's there to listen. i sat in the bathroom crying that time i read that letter because i wanted to tell her how i don't want to be hurt again. i wanted to tell her how the only reason why i am tirelessly working and studying is because i desired to take my things of matters of the heart. i wanted to tell her....but i did not. i pretended that that letter did not affect me a bit. i did not say a word. i did not utter any response.

now, the pain is overlapping. the homesickness is killing me. and i am working 16 hours a day work for 4 to 5 days a week and i got ot school in between with 2 t0 3 hours of sleep evry day. a boy who liked me recently said, i am such a "superwoman." i wanted to tell him....i'm not superwoman....i am just doing this to ease the pain.

so, in my silenceLord, if you are there, feel the beatings of my heart. Let this pain go away. A just want it to go away. {Amen}

[Sorry---five minutes is over....Got to jam]

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.
