if i could turn back time...

Then... skinny, Now... gained some "ehem" pounds (actually 13lbs to be exact. lol);

Then... young looking, Now... very matured looking;

Then... smooth & clear skin, Now... breaking out (haven't adjusted to the weather);

Then... lots of friends, Now... not really (most of them have their own gimmicks... mind your own attitude);

Then... I was home (in the Philippines), Now... I am in my adopted country (New York);

Hi Faye, Mabuti ka nagkaroon ng time to look back the past. Nakakatuwa ba balika?
People really changed and that's normal, what is impotant we change for the BEST. I see it in you... You become more the person that you are....
Keep Smiling!!!

nakaka-inis! nag comment ako pero nawala! hmp!

basta, i can relate nalang. especially with the skinny then and gained "some" pounds now, hehe. and also about not having so much friends now. siguro kasi i only want to keep the ones who really know me and who i know will protect and stay with me. quality over quantity diba?

anyway, sarap mag reminisce no? :)

hi, grace! naku minsan nagloloko nga ang blogger. kainis!

ganun ata talaga pag medyo nagkaka-edad. i agree ang sarap balikan ang nakaraan... i mean some. :) i have a few friends from pinas but they're not in NY kaya wala talaga friends for keeps for now.

i'd like to think that i'm growing up rather than growing old :) if only i could hold on to every tiny detail of the good old days but my mind can only do so much. memory gap ba.. ahihi..

anyways, ingat lang po palagi jan!

Your skinny pa rin naman ah! Pero the weight gain I think is due to the insulation you need for winter time. KAsi the pounds that I gained there, I lost when I came back to Manila.

hi, abby! para kasing puro work na nga lang dito kaya pati pag exercise wala ng time.

hey, marj! maybe you're right! i was so skinny when i went home for the wedding. but it's irvin who keeps on reminding me lately because i eat too much... and more on sweets pa.
