Love Life! (Reflection Paper on GossipGirls)


Just arrived home after I drove my brother’s fiancé to the office ( she’s an accountant ), sat on the coffee table and realized something…

I damn LOVE MY LIFE!!!

It’s a quarter to nine and I have a day ahead, but I just feel so lazy to get going. To cheer me up here I am writing my blog.

As I said earlier, I so damn love my life. Last night after going to the movies and catching the premiere of Angles and Demons here in the Metro ( anyway I love the twist in the end, only that, don’t rely on the book, the movie’s quite twisted ) with my friends, a new circle. I had a dose of the entire first season of Gossip Girls, and until now I’m not so over it. It’s a hook! And it’s the perfect high school – college series I have ever seen. And to note, it’s so my life ( reserve those contradictions )

I have to admit that I ain’t born elite; we barely have enough. But anyway, I can relate more to Dan in terms of social status. I’m just a “commoner” amongst a few accolades that really are in to the “light”. But anyway, I really am most impressed by Blair’s statements ( remember the scene in her house with those baggy old fashioned bitches dressed in very conservative clothes only to hide their carcasses? ) that she thought she was leaving college behind, turns out the “society” she wants to infiltrate haven’t left that paradigm. Whew! That was so cool of her, and to note, it became the starting point for me to start liking her ( she’s sooo mean in the first season’s first chapters! ) Given that dilemma, I’m so into her character like 8 hours ago ‘till now ( oh, even the lingo, hahahaha ) But kidding aside, I really am deeply touched by her character. Felt the same.



I started in Ateneo like from damn scratch; had no one aside from my brother who by the way is 13 years older than me and is already a college instructor. That’s not very nice to have for a “company” in college. Anyway, I came to know certain people, some. But that some really are a blast! Found my target friends, just like Jen, I aimed for the “them” people to really have a good taste of college; turns out they still are high school bound. Good for me to realize that after I thought I’m into the group, I’m actually not. Well, I have to be honest, that turned my world upside down, for quite a time too. But living the past behind, look at me now! Found the real people to REALLY understand me, and to REALLY want me around as much as I want them around. I am like so Dan, he needs not to make efforts to make it into the inner circle, the circle has its own way of picking the rightful people to complete it.

Damn right?

Whew! Just really love GossipGirls! but love more my life now…

I will not anymore trade the movies, the fresh air blowing at the back of a pick up, dinners and casual lunches, the chats and friendly nothings over a few spirits, the besso and hugs; I will never anymore trade the genuine hearts I have around for the fame of being into the “them” group. GossipGirls reiterated what life’s been trying to teach me, that the lime light and the glamour shines dim on hearts who barely know how to open up. True friends around is warmer than the spotlights!
