I am basically learning to let go of relationships that aren't working.
I am that person who usually holds on to EVERY SINGLE THING.
I hesitate before throwing away receipts. I have books from elementary school. I have all the letters, report cards, cards, pictures (that I haven't tragically lost yet. I still weep for those pics that have moved on to picture heaven), etc.
The whole process of letting things go started after graduation, I guess.
I finally threw away those pesky SAT books (even though after I threw them out, I started tutoring, of course. They could have been very useful -__-).
I finally threw away high school papers.
And I finally put an end to relationships that were either one sided or just not working out.
It takes me a lot to end friendships. But, I think i'm at that point in which I am trying to better myself constantly, and that task requires me to surround myself with good people who can guide me and support me. Some people were being shitty, and I got tired of waiting around for them to come around.
I think it's just damn time for me to say my goodbye's and move the fuck on with my life because I really deserve better.
Bye!

Done: Date with Danica
So, there's this lovely girl named Danica!
We went to high school together and only kept in touch in the cyber world since our business class together in sophomore year? or junior year..
She is probably half my size. But, with my height, that really isn't that big of a deal anymore lol.
She is also very fashionable and just FUN!
And this girl has got it together.
I'm not saying this because she may or may not read this. HAHA. She probably won't because I didn't tell many people about this blog!
I told like.. 3 ppl.
Anyways, so we haven't talked in person in... 6 or so years.
Ridiculous.
We always said, let's meet up!
But, with our busy schedules and the distance, it just didn't happen until we were both graduated and somewhat relaxing.
Honestly, I was a bit nervous before the date since there was a real possibility that this could go soooo awkward. But, I mean I cyber stalk her (yes, I openly admitted to her and the world, to which she also admitted to stalking me. so yay!), so it feels like I know her life HAHA.
And fortunately, things weren't awkward AT ALL.
In fact, things went too well.
We talked for 8 hours.
Sat at Octopus for 3, then moved to Mochilato for 5.
Holyshmoly.
We didn't even realize.
By the end of our "therapy session," my back was fairly sore, and I was exhausted, but ecstatic!
it felt like we had a lot in common.
And it was nice to talk to someone who could relate to me and vice versa.
And now we happily text each other problems and concerns. <3
I mean this girl has her shit together. AND she doesn't judge. AND she also has no problem hating on idiots with me! hahahahaha
love her.
Anyways, if you ever read this, Danica, I freakin' love you! hahahahaha So glad we had our date.
love,
Hayon

Done #8: Boardgame Night!
I really love board games.
They bring people together and act as a great excuse to get away from all the technology and really bond people.
And they are just plain fun.
So, to celebrate my graduation and just to have a small get together, I invited a few of my friends to my house for dinner/board game/ wine&cheese night!
I cooked dinner which consisted of chili and cornbread!
I used this recipe for the chili. I tweaked it a little bit with more spices and thai chili peppers to REALLY SPICE THINGS UP! and I simmered it for 3+ hours. It actually turned out DELICIOUS! (:
especially with the cornbread that Jenn made. We used Trader Joe's cornbread mix.
I've accumulated a lot of board games over the years. Some I bought with Jenn and Some I bought for myself.
We ended up playing Jenga, Pass the Popcorn (a movie trivia game in which I played the moderator because the game stresses me out lol), Cranium (so much fun! - Chris & I won btw) and Harry Potter Clue game (Chris won, but BY LUCK! I could've won ): ). hahaha
It was just so entertaining making a fool out of ourselves and really let loose!
As for the wine and cheese, Jenn brought a white wine, and we put some frozen berries, kiwi, canned pineapple and apples to make sangria. And Jane brought brie cheese and some sort of blue cheese that I cannot remember the name of (maybe stilson or something???) and water crackers. For the fruity part of the evening, lol, Chris brought A LOT of apples and grapes, and they were so delicious with the cheese.
And Chandler kindly brought TJoe's cheesecake! yummmmm.
It was just an evening of gluttony and laughter and good company.
(Ina Garten much???) lol
We ended it with taboo and just chatting about movies.
I loved it!
Now I am actually really tired. I'll sleep well, hopefully. I haven't been sleeping too well lately, so yea..
A lot on my mind.
But, tonight really brightened up my weekend!
Now for tomorrow's Mother's Day Brunch! (:
I have the menu all planned out. I'll post it later since 1 post a night seems good enough for me.
Satisfied,
Hayon

About me: Judge free?
So, I did go sang my heart out and relieved stress talking to my friend.
We talked for like 4-5 hours? haha
It was nice to just tell her all the inner dialogues I have been having and things I felt terrible about. Some about my future, some about myself, and some about uncontrollable external situations.
It's nice to just have someone who won't judge you. She jokes that it's because her situation isn't much better so why judge? But, I feel the same. Well, I do judge, but strictly to myself. hahah I try not to show the judgment unless it gets REALLY bad. But, even then, if it doesn't affect my life, I probably won't tell you.
I believe in Karma, and I believe in a need for a civil society where people are polite and nice to each other and save their judging to themselves.
Definitely not saying that I am higher than thou (unless I am taller because I am tall. HAHA. yea.. jk).
And I may just hate for no reason lol.
But, i'm just saying when it comes to my friends, I want full support because I'll be my worst critic and I really don't need another one. And I give back in return. It's not such a bad deal, in my opinion.
Feeling a bit defensive,
Hayon
