I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about...

I'm awake because of some weird realizations. And one is that I realized that I am no longer a child.  I mean, yeah I still am (my looks can attest to that. hahaha).... but what I'm trying to pinpoint is the fact...

Saturday, July 24, 2010 / BY Anj
I  believe that the last time I wrote on this blog was 4 months ago. A lot of things has happened in my life so far, so forgive me for just writing now. It's 4:23 am right now.

Life for me is made up of the simple tasks we do daily. Therefore when we ask ourselves the question: "What do we expect from life?" This is simply wrong. Day to day, life constantly asks us... "What do you  have in store for me?"...
