I hope I don't Regret this decision.

My friends and i are having a beach trip this may 1-3. We planned this before summer and now that it's getting closer, I'm super excited. However, My dad's leaving for work on the 4th but that is still tentative. There's a possibility that he might leave tomorrow or the next day or on may 1-3. Now there's the problem. I don't want to miss the beach trip and i also don't want to be in Batangas on the day that my dad's leaving. I asked my mom about the beach trip and she allowed me but the final decision has to come from my dad. Knowing my dad - he will not allow me especially now that's he's leaving. I haven't talked to him yet. I feel like he would think of me as a bad daughter. A daughter who doesn't care about her dad at all. I don't want that impression to run around my dad's head.

I've made up my mind. I'm not going to the trip.

If i ask my dad if i can go there's a 90% possibility that he will not allow me and think that I don't care about him (and i will miss all the fun in Batangas). There's the 10% chance of allowing me and at the same time he will think that i don't care about him. But i'll probably regret it if he goes abroad without me at the airport saying goodbye to him (but i''ll be at batangas enjoying the beach and the company of my friends). So... I still believe that family comes first before friends. I love my dad and I don't want him thinking that he's wasting his money on a daughter who doesn't care about him and a daughter who only cares about the money her father gives. So, the final decision is...I'm staying here at home.

Pray for me. :) haha.

Scrapbooking

When i woke this afternoon I saw my mom arranging our family pictures. Those pictures even included the times when my parents weren't married yet. So i was like, what's my my mom doing?. I asked her and told me that she was making a scrapbook. My first reaction was 'woah, my mom's showing her creative side now ahh'. After finishing one whole scrapbook she called me and told me that i was to decorate it. WTH?! those? I'm never gonna finish that! Haha so that's what I'm doing now - decorating the scrapbook. I'm actually just taking a break and letting my cousin finish a page since I'm tired.The First Page
(I'm not in the mood so it's not pretty ):)

Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho is my favorite author. He is just amazing. His books are filled with messages of hope, love, courage, etc. I just love reading his books and his blog.

Since he is my favorite author i thought i should know more things about him aside from the fact that he is a widely known author. From my research i found out that he's from Brazil. haha yeah, i never knew he came from there. Now i know why most of his book are set there. Before he dedicated his life to writing, he worked in theaters as a director and actor. He was also a journalist and lyricist. His first book was Hell Archives which made no impact at all. His second book was the world famous The Alchemist. However it had slow initial sales that his publisher told him to let go of it. (good thing Paulo Coelho didn't) He went on and now it is one of the best selling Brazilian books of all time. Today, he has sold 100 million copies (woah, he must be super rich right now!) He was the most sold author in 2003 with his book Eleven Minutes (at that time it wasn't even released in the UN, Japan and 10 other countries yet). The Alchemist was in 6th place in 2003. Eleven minutes topped the list in the whole world except in England. The Zahir was in 3rd place best sellers next to Dan Brown's The Da Vince Code and Angels and Demons. His most sold book is The alchemist. It has sold 30 million copies so far. He entered the Guinness Book of Records as the author who signed more books in different editions. Pope John Paul II welcomed him in Vatican.

That's everything i know about him. You can visit his blog at http://paulocoelhoblog.com/ There are a lot of nice stories there. You can also know more about him by going to this site : http://www.paulocoelho.com.br/engl/bio.shtml

The Treasure at the End of the Rainbow

Oh my...Sydney's blogging haha. Very unusual.

So, hello! The only reason why I created this blog is because I'm really bored here at home. Oh! and the thing is I'm feeling nocturnal. I'm most active at night and i sleep when the sun's up. Yeah, vampire-ish. Well, this is actually normal for me, I'm always like this during summer. My dad's getting mad at me for distorting my body clock. I can't help it! This is what happens when I'm bored and I'm too lazy to clean my stuff or to study for CET. There's time for that, but right now i want to enjoy summer (but I'm not).
I haven't seen the beach for soooo long. The last time i went to the beach was three years ago. ahhh...i have no life . :| Oh well my parents are really busy and i think i have to understand them. haha.
