#celebratingnotcelebrating the Year of the Sheep 2015
When he dumped me, I told myself to skip Chinese New Year (I'm not Chinese anyway!) this year. But out of the blue, MUHS let me experience Chinese New Year again as she always had by ordering loads of balloons for her motorcade which was also my first from her. So I got my Chinese New Year started!
Then I remembered when I was on mainland China's newspaper with Ms. Stefanie C. Chan, my brightest student ever!
And also had the opportunity to catch up with Teacher Aida and previous MUHS students especially my Math wizard, Star C. Lim by twilight because they made pahabol for their balloon order.
To add up to the call of fate, my aunt suddenly brought siomai to our house and said, "I thought you'd be celebrating tonight." This is supposed to be my first Chinese New Year without anything on the table but then there came the siomai na laging karamay kahit kailan so we had food on the table!
On Chinese New Year's day, I spent the whole morning reading and got another favorite page on moving on from To All The Boys I've Loved Before. One day, I'm gonna say this (soon)!
When I got bored, I went out by late afternoon. As a moving-on-to-the-highest-level move, I entered stores which was a no-no since once you enter stores when broken-hearted, you'll definitely end up broke! And there I was, purchasing clothes without any occasion to wear 'em all!
To cap the day, I was glad I still had company. Thanks to this girl who by any chance does her truest part as a friend to the whimsical me!
Craving for fries satisfied and that ends my supposedly-not-to-be-celebrated Chinese New Year ('coz I'm not Chinese anyway!)! I don't even know why I'm still having this blog post. Erp!

Welcoming the Heart Month with a Bang!
Oh, heart month! Here you are again! Here you are to put infliction to my heart again! You've never been good to me! Anyhow, I still have to welcome you as my colleague, Engr. Mark said in his FB status:
"FEBRUARY - Latid word 'februum' which means PURIFICATION
- from the ancient Roman purification ritual 'Februa'".
So you are not that bad at all. That's why for this first day of your rule, I decided to "purify" myself. Purify myself from the past, purify myself from the memories, purify myself from the pain and hurt. Purify myself from him! Yes, I still cried when I woke up this dawn at 5 AM. Yes, I'm still faking my smiles. Yes, I'm still broken and shattered. But I have to carry on. I have to move forward as what he'd done. I have to gather myself up because the game is so so over!
I'm just glad that for today, I had some fun! It's the first day of CAS Week as La Salle University's College of Arts and Sciences celebrates its 61st founding anniversary. With that, we jumpstarted the festivities with a team building this afternoon. We played a lot of fun games for the students and faculty to enjoy!

| The Hoola Hoop |

| The Face Powder |
 |
| The Candy Crush |
 |
| The Ball Shooting |
 |
| The Phrase Guessing |
 |
| The Step-Step |
 |
| The Yell |
Aside from the games, we also had water and paint war as the fad nowadays. Everybody got painted and wet which added to the hype of the afternoon!

Now I thank you, February 1 for the fun I had today! Though still sad, I welcome you Heart Month! I may still be solo but at least I have some company as I'm trying to heal my heart.
Stay tuned tomorrow for CAS Week's official opening program! :)

Getting Over It and Moving On
The third day after my last post for #yrech32 and my cursor still stays blink blink blink..... What do I write after a very bonggacious vacation? I don't want my blog to be tainted just yet! But I have to write. I need to write. I need to post. So what would be my story for today? What is worth telling for? I even asked my students for suggestions and one student directly answered, "How to move on?" And my initial reaction was just laugh. I laughed at the idea and even joked him of his plight in his love life. But here I am about to write of it now. Haha! Maybe that's what everyone needs these days-a how-to in moving on.
However, moving on is not just for those who just broke their hearts. It is about to move on to the next level, the next chapter, and for my case as a teacher, the next topic. And same as for this blog, it's time to move on to the next post. I may still have a hangover from the latest trip me and my friends had, and it's about time to get over it. Like hello, I'm now back to reality-back to classes, back to Fascino, back to lonely walks home. I guess that is life. At least once in a while, we get to escape from the everyday madness we ought to face.
So for today, I'm moving on. Not just literally here in my blog but also symbolically as a person. 29 days from now and it's gonna be new year and I don't have to wait for that for a new year's resolution. Resolutions never make into reality for my case anyway! So I'm making it a new life for me today. I'm moving on to a life that I never had before. Starting today, I'll choose happiness above anything else. If you choose to be happy, then you'll be happy. Am I making sense here? And you might say, who ever wants to be unhappy? Of course, everyone wants to be happy! But it's not everyone who pursues to be happy.
Surely, problems and trials always come our way. We cannot run away from 'em and we can never elude 'em. It's just a matter of how we deal with 'em. If I get easily down, if I get easily discouraged, if I get easily mad, and if I get easily disheartened, I'll do my best not to be anymore. Because it is in the state of mind and the matter of the heart that you can still be happy even though you are heavily-laden with such trials.
And so with that, that's my moving on post for today. Let's stop dwelling in the past and stop being anxious for the future but let us start living for today because it is "the now" that should be lived up. Remember that we only live once and we must make the most out of it. :)

To the Single-Hearted this Valentine's Day
".....grieving and mourning over the past for a long period of time won't get you far."
Exactly two years ago, I had lost a love for a plethora of reasons. Since then, I've been nursing a broken heart. Well, it's just me. It's just my weakness to easily accept, let go, and forget. Additionally, moving on is not just my thing.
However, time had prompted me to accept, let go, and move on. And as I've read my student Joy2x's article in Expressions (MUHS' school paper), I had been enlightened. Yes, her words were echoing in the idle confines of my hypothalamus, bull's eye straight to my already numb heart! And I think it's about time to get over it! I have to believe again that everything happens for a reason and there's no point of me lamenting for what I've lost!
So now I'm hoping for my silver lining. Though the "next please" hasn't arrived yet, I just have to be positive that it is coming the soonest! And for the still single girls like me, just
