About Me

My photo
I have a very long name but most people just call me Emily or Cid. I'm a girl who loves to enjoy what life has to offer. I try to balance my life in everything. You'll see me go partying once in a while but you won't see me going to clubs every night. You'll also see me studying but you won't see my eyes strained from too much reading. Music is one thing I can't live without. When I love, I smile at the world but when I hate and I'm really sad, you'll see me ranting to my friends :P I cherish every person that comes my way and make the most of moments I get. :)

Singleness :)


SINGLE AND READY TO MINGLE!!!!


I'm on the road to happiness I never thought possible! I thought being single would be a drag, but it's actually really satisfying. I can now breathe easily without having to worry too much! It is such a great feeling to know that I can stand on my own. What I love most about being single is being able to notice the love that surrounds me through friends and family. When I was in a relationship, I was very constricted with the love of my boyfriend. I somehow let slip the love I receieved from other people. Yes, I do miss my ex sometimes but if he and I were still together right now, I wouldn't be as happy as I am now because I'd end up worrying and missing him too much!

As of now, I am not ready to be in a relationship because I need some time to find myself again. I kind of lost myself in my past relationship because I was too caught in lurve of love. (Guys please understand!) I can't be with someone if I still have to pick the pieces back together right?

But once I do find myself, then that's when I can be in a relationship and love the next guy with all my heart. :)

It's funny because somehow it is fate that I find myself soon. Why? Because I will be....

GOING TO THAILAND THIS FRIDAY!!

I think travelling would be the best escape to everything and figure myself out in a totally different culture. I know it's ironic, but being someplace else makes me really think about what I want and who I want in my life. That's why whenever I travel, something about me changes for the better.

Anyway, I hope that everything turns out great!

Purple Fingers

Purple fingers-This happens when a person has been playing the guitar for a few hours. This person happens to be me.

Even with the pain, I still continue playing. Why? Because playing the guitar is so addicting! Learning the different chords really makes me happy. Being able to play a song also just makes my day. Now I can say I don't mind being at home the whole day, as long as I have a guitar by my side!

The reason why I chose the guitar is because it's very versatile. Yes I do love the violin, but the thing is, I can't sing while playing it. I recently composed a song (It's called Rain. You'll see it in my past post) and it's also the reason why I want to play guitar.

So far, I can play the songs "Hawak Kamay", "When you say nothing at all", intro of "Love Story" and intro of "Forever and Always". I'm still amazed I was able to do all this within 3 days :)

Anyway, I'm going to go back making my fingers more purple. :P

Rajo Laurel here I come!










I just came about Rajo Laurel's website and I must say I really adore his clothes! I remember when I wore one of his dresses in the mannequin of House of Laurel to my prom. :) I seriously felt like a star but also very careful at the same time not to spill anything on the dress.




I asked my tita about modelling for Rajo and I have to at least be 5'8" and I need to gain more weight. I hope in the future I can model for him!! It would be such an honor to model such intricate and lovely designs! :)

Confidence is the key

Confidence seems to be an easy word to throw around. Sometimes we think we have it, but in reality, we still lack it. In my opinion, a person can accomplish anything if he/she has confidence. As for me, I am confident in some ways (I love who I am) but I also get shy sometimes, especially when it comes to performing on stage!! Sometimes, I do wish that I'm that girl who everyone looks up to or that girl who graces the runways of New York. But a friend of mine told me to be happy with who I am.


After the breakup, I had a lot of time to think about myself since people say it's what you need to do after a breakup. I realized that even if I wasn't the perfect girlfriend, I was still the same girl I always was. :) I guess that's what mattered the most. Maybe I did get a little lost during the relationship but now that I am as free as a bird, I can build up that confidence by myself. :)


I guess there really is no point in comparing myself to other people because I am who I am. :) I just hope some people don't get jealous of me. (yes there are people who do get jealous) Sometimes, I have been a little too nice and let my self esteem get trampled upon so that other people get the limelight. But I won't do that anymore cuz like I said, I am who I am. :)
