vanessa hermano: AR+VIE = L♥VE

Life is like a roller coaster ride. We have our highs and lows. We have our breaks, our falls that hits us harder when we truly recognize.

I'd love to say that is all planned out, things happen the least you expect it to happen.

Like how LOVE share its MAGIC

Love is an incredibly powerful possession.

Being IN LOVE is such a cliche...

But being in a relationship built in trust is really something...

Way in which you gave your heart wholly and vulnerably.

When you're in love, you always want to be together, and when you're not, you're thinking about being together because you need that person and without them your life is INCOMPLETE.

LDR or Long Distance Relationship is typically an intimate relationship that takes place when the partners are separated by considerable distance - Wikipedia

Being in an LDR looks simple, but believe me, when it comes to actual execution

it takes a lot of effort and discipline from both parties.

BLESS those who are able to conquer the quest...

BLESS the "US" who suffered from pain, depression, anger, frustration and all sorts of unwanted feelings after the CURSED BREAK-UP.

and BLESS me as I'm still figuring it out =)

I've a dear friend who's X-MAN (I would prefer calling the guy, Mr. X to spare him from trouble...I'm kind you see.) I consider a friend too. There was no question about their unbeatable refined 8 years of being together, sharing the same continent and 8 months of exceptionally challenging LDR. Months miles away from each other was full of hope, trust and reassurance, OH! and I would say full of twists and turns too! One way or the other, they're both pressured. In a nutshell, they didn't withstand the test of time and distance, they didn't weather the storm...Mr. X, crushed my friend's heart into several pieces. Ouch!

Sharing a room with "V" entails me an opportunity of meddling a life, which I really enjoy doing at times. We shared so much twig and berries from first time our feet landed a foreign land and we really hit it off. I remembered when her mum called her before boarding, she said: "Wag kayong mag-aaway ni Nhess. Wag mong aawayin si Nhess. Magmahalan kayo...", Buti hindi sinabing, "At magpakarami!", Ha ha ha!

We are tagged as best room mates for the past 8 months. No fight stuff. Debate about certain topic is inevitable, but we're entitled to our own opinion, so what's the fuss? There were issues that were so insignificant as to be almost unworthy of notice. We are definitely in a smooth sailing friendship here. She was my crying shoulder when I felt beyond bad. We laughed and cried together. We played sneaky tricks on people, cheeky bitch eh?

I have seen her through the bits and pieces of her emotions. I've seen her weep from an emotional distress. Those tears dripping all the way down were emotional tortures from a cursed LDR break up. How cruel and unfair life can be!

While she's singing Cheryl Cole's "FIGHT FOR THIS LOVE", Mr. X is singing "CHEAT CHIRIT CHEAT, ALIBAMBANG!", need I say more details?

Time is a great healer. Nothing happens quickly - even the seasons take time months to change completely.

The only way to get over it is to go through it and that means praising God every day and asking Him to take the burden from you.

When one door closes, another opens.

After deleting a portion of your life, you pampered yourself the way you deserved it.

Eventually, the cycle of love made its own way to find you...again.

The Birth of "ARVIE LOVE",

I don't know if I actually have the permission to say what

ARVIE LOVE (Ly's idea... ;-)

stands for and for posting this mystery man's picture here,

(I don't have options to choose from, V)

might as well assume the possibility though...

(sorry "V"...lab.lab.lab.)

AR as in letter R, is ROLANDO

(don't curse me, V, but your lover's name is the best! It's very rare to find a name like ROLANDO this days... We envy you, big time!)

VIE is V as in VANESSA.

ROLANDO + VANESSA = LOVE

V, we are more than happy to see you smiling like there's no tomorrow.

Honestly, we had this sulking and grouchy feeling because it took you 2 weeks before you let us know about this...

You sort of misinterpreted what we might say upon hearing this.

Especially me!

Sweetie, we are not just girls sharing a room here...

And you remembered how I had to force just to let me know this fact?!

(nakakatampo, di ba che?!)

But hey! this isn't about our feelings, ok?!

This is about YOU AND ROLANDO...

(di ba may kanta yun ABBA na ROLANDO?

ahay! FERNANDO pala yun! tsk!)

Pieces of advice here:

1. Just appreciate each other all the time.

(Huwag hanapin ang kulang at magpasalamat sa kung ano ang meron...)

2. Establish an effective communication channel

(Minsan boring magchat, pero ano ba naman yun mag-experiment kayo di ba?!)

3. Take your relationship lightly

(no pressure, ok?!)

4.Wait and see attitude

(Hindi lang dapat sa umpisa SWEET!)

5. Remain faithful and trust worthy

(Bahala na kayo, matatanda na kayo...No rooms for suspicion!)

6. Plan to meet each other sooner or later

(Bongga yan! Masaya yan na awkward sa umpisa! Sa umpisa lang naman eh! ha ha ha)

7. Succumb to negative comment on LDR

(Maraming nagsasabi na di magwowork ang LDR, pero sila yun eh! Kayo, pinili nio ang pumasok sa LDR, so patunayan nyo na it will work for you..ok?!)

Vie: We love you and we're here for you all the way.

Ar: We don't have an inch of idea of who you are really...

(except your name, such a music to our ears)

WE know we'll meet you in the long run.

I am welcoming you to NHESS's WORLD of FRIENDS...

(better be careful...)

Seriously, we are not giving you our friend...

but we are ENTRUSTING her to you...

You don't have to prove yourself to us...

Just love her like no man could ever love her...

Don't make promises. Just do it.

CHERADEE DIMACALE: Single and Fantabulous :)

When you're currently not in a relationship with a significant other,

it really doesn't bother you, at all...

But the problems start when self-centered, inconsiderable ***hole friends

rub in the fact that they have someone, then they start saying how perfect their relationships are,

and keep going on and on and on until you're no longer interested to listen.

Needless to say, if you're sickly tired of listening to your friend's twisted relationships

and you want your IN A RELATIONSHIP friends to just calm down about love issues...

You absofuckinglutely belong to one of my bestfriend's WORLD.

Cheradee Dimacale, 24, smart chic, an awesome friend, and she's fabulous!

Aside from holding a two-letter but powerful profession, RN --

she's also holding the MS. NBSB as in No Boylet Since Birth title!

Che, as we fondly call her, is like a better half for her friends. She's what a sister has ought to be - a mixture of sweet and sour. She'll tease you then kiss you in the end.

She's ready to mobbed up with you on someone for intimidation, a real partner in crime.

She's ready to try on dress and take tons of picture... keso!

She loathed words with L, R, F and V, I pressume. Need evidence?

We have seen each other through my love stories and heartbreaks (once...),

through death and new life, through mistakes and through the best times of our lives.

I am not embarrass telling her everything, even the darker ones ;-)

I can always see her through every stages...

(spare Freud's and Erikson's theory here, do you mind?!)

of my life...

So how am I suppose to give this bestfriend of mine to someone who hardly knows her?

Who knows a mere fraction of the things I know about her?

Is there anyone alive there who can tell me the reason which explains why this adorable lady is still SINGLE?

Weird. Why she hasn't fall in love yet?

It's happening all around. Even a 14 year old is committed to a serious relationship.

Her friends are either tying the knot or are happily involved with the men of their dreams

She's sure a catch, but then why is she SINGLE?

Flying solo can leave you feeling lonely and hopeless, but can also be the best damn feeling in the world - INDEPENDENT!

Wait! She maybe SINGLE but she's surrounded with love from friends and family.

She's not afraid to venture life... but is daunted to enter the most spectacular, indescribable, overrated KINGDOM OF LOVE...perhaps because of her FRIENDS intermittent relationship...

(hell yeah?!)

I will leave a big QUESTION MARK???

Sweetie, I'd tell you your edge to those who's in a relationship:

1. You can go to wherever the hell you want to go without asking permission.

2. One word: INDEPENDENCE

3. No relationship fights and stuff

and the last which I love most,

4. You can have a crush on anyone :)

Now, Che, tell me. Will this guy need to pass a set of qualification test?

I know that you have expectations when selecting a boyfriend. Logical.

SINGLE MEN out there, meet our SINGLE WOMAN here!

QUALIFICATIONS:

1. neat- inside out: neat freak! clean cut presentable man

2. college graduate (alang-alang kay Ina)

3. Profession: preferably a NURSE or ENGINEER (not asking much...)

4. Responsible (for future purposes)

and lastly, which I think is the paramount amongst all the qualifications listed...

5. A man with a SURNAME so GOOD TO SAY and so NICE to hear...

(she's bad, I think she want to get shot of her surname, DIMACALE!)

Darling, prepare yourself for a neat looking-clean cut-presentable, responsible engineer with a surname: CATACUTAN, BAJO, DIMAGIBA, DIMATAYO, DIMAANO,

(pasintabi sa mga nasagasaan ko...)

I can't tell you to stop setting standards, but I think it's better not to.

Being a lover is not a ****ing job! And you're not hiring a ****ing employee either

They're humans and they love you.

So give them a chance.

It's impossible to have everything you want, but God will give you what you really need.

We can't wait to see you in the phase of:

I LOVE HIM,

I HATE HIM,

I HATE LOVE

and

I LOVE again.

Fall in LOVE.

Facebook: Social media o OKRAY media?

"'Di komo maputi ka, maganda ka na!"

"Ang higad, di lang sa puno nakakapit..."

"walang utang ngayon, bukas pwede!"

"single, in a relationshio, complicated, married, widowed...san ka?"

Kung alam mo yan, malamang may FACEBOOK ka, kamote ka!

Walang personalan, status lang! Pero, wala nga ba? Lahat na lang kasi ng bagay personal, kaya lahat pinepersonal, ultimo pinakamaliit ng hinimay ng pagkatao mo, nasa FB... hello!

Ay dapat lang naman, dahil lahat ng ginagawa, sinasabi, iniisip ay repleksyon ng iyong pagkatao.

S'ya nga naman, aminin naten, maraming pagkakataon na pinatawa at pinakilig tayo ng pagkakataon sa pagbabasa lang ng kung anik-anik sa Facebook. Pero sa pagkakataon na yon, meron at meron kang mababasa na ikaiinis mo.

Huwag mag-deny, don't tell a lie...

At ang nakakalerki, hindi mo alam kung sa status, wallpost o fan page ka naiinis o sa mismong indibidwal na nagpost.

Naglipana ang kanya-kanyang banat na may kasamang panira o pang-oOLAY!

Freedom of expression pa ba itong masasabi o may gusto lang patamaan?

Mamatay ko mang isipin, karapatan ng lahat bumanat.

Sa totoo lang, it's miffing me off sometimes..

(Gawain ko din naman ito minsan.lol.)

Minsan, ya'ng status na yan, lame excuse sa pagiging duwag!

Ikaw, naiinis ka din ba? O naiinggit sa mga banatero't banatera?

L.L.P.F -- Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire.

Bakit nga ba sa halip na gamitin ang channel na ito sa positibong paraan, nalalaman mo ba ang sinasabi ko?

Halimbawa na lang, ang hanapin ang nawawala - kaibigan, kaklase, kamag-anak, at pwede ri'ng kapuso para sa mga desperado... peace be with you :)

At sa halip, nagiging medium ito para sa pagpapakyut at pagpapapansin...

Ang tanong? Kyut nga ba at walang malisya?

Naisip ko lang, ang iksi ng buhay...

Nakakafrustrate nasasayang ang ilang himaymay ng oras mo kapupuna sa mga ganitong klase ng trip.

Ang masama nito, sa pagsulat kong ito,

ISA na din AKO sa mga taong bumabasag sa trip ng iba...

Hay naku! Umiiral na naman ang pagiging opinionated at observant ko!

blah! blah! blah! Bahala ka!

Tama na nga. Wala namang makikinig eh :)

SATC vs. JVC

Four not-so-young but desirable New York bachelor girls, virtually inseparable who confide in each other about their confusing and intriguing SEX lives.

Carrie Bradshaw, a petite columnist, often the narrator of the story who always has this hanging questions about sex and relationship. She can't get away from the love of her life, Mr. Big, no matter what.

Miranda Hobbes, is a red-hair lawyer with an insecure nerd lover, Steve (i hate him most..poor Miranda.).

Charlotte York, comes from a super rich family who owns a gallery. Ms. Prim and Proper, old-fashioned when it comes to sex and relationship.

Samantha Jones, the woman with unashamed voice of lust. She can't stand a serious relationship. Afraid of commitment.

They do belong to upper east side of Manhattan in NY.

Surrounded by men, luxury, fashion and sex.

Lucky.

Four still-young and desirable (violent reaction, anyone?) bachelor girls from United Kingdom (atm).

They were inseparable too, as they share one roof.

They confide in each other, absofuckinlutely not about SEX life,

but their confusing Love Relationship, work, and other people's lives.

Vanessa Hermano, a woman who love butterflies and hate perfumes. Has 4S - as in super sensitive sense of smell to perfume. A Bible reader at night. She sometimes has an old-fashioned moral standards about life, but once pissed-off, may become bitchy too. Careful!

She's often serious and quiet. Has a very strong personality and definitely a friend in hand.

She was rejected by an X-man to Cheryl Cole's Fight for this Love relationship.

One door was closed for her, but several windows opened.

Fishes in the sea were ready for her bait.

Jao Anajao, is partly korean look-alike. A bookworm buddy... (Thanks to Amazon!)

Excessively communicative. Thank God she's not physically abusive! She usually starts and ends a conversation.

Petrified by skin condition problems (warts and the likes..), and would foot the bill on lotions, salicylic acid, etc.

Found true love in the name of CLINIQUE HAPPY and JEPOY. A relationship who's till DOOMSDAY do us part.

The only one, I guess who's in a relationship.

Cheradee Dimacale, an NBSB - No Boyfriend Since Birth gal. Babyish and bitchy to guys.

Very perturbed to enter the kingdom of Love Relationship as she had enough of her friends

HURTFUL EXPERIENCES in Love.

Stuttered and tongue-tied in words with L, R, F.

Hopeless to find a natural solution to work for her arms and once mentioned would go through a LIPO when everything else fails.

Thinks she's not SHOPAHOLIC.

A true friend, a good sister and a child who's mother will be proud of.

Janice de Guzman, is a writer and an artist on her own rights.

Her life was complicated with likes and dislikes.

Loves anything that comes in the shade of pink; proud HK fan.

Loves perfume and would go through her way to try and spray on her favorite scent in perfume stalls -

a move that V would hate and Jao would like.

People thinks she's cheeky but humorous. Believes that Karma is a Bitch.

Assumed and acknowledge that rheumatism is not experienced only by wranglers =/

Her love life is full of twists and turns and currently single and in the process of reviving a relationship in coma.

Loves Empire state of mind song, Empire state building

and sees herself living in New York where dreams are made of =)

They live in a dead-ended near park side of Manor Road in Birmingham.

Surrounded by bushes, trees and heck of a...better to keep it dark.

Likes and Loves Fashion but couldn't afford to follow the fad.

Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte and Samantha seems to possess everything materially

and we don't have even 1/4 of what they've got.

We simply live and survive leading to less complicated life.

But one thing I'm sure of...

We both get hold of TRUE FRIENDS by our side...
