Sampras&amp;#8217;, Agassi&amp;#8217;s, Hewitt&amp;#8217;s, Roddick&amp;#8217;s - my favorite players. i&amp;#8217;ve always known how they play this game; their styles.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;tennis and frustrations.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;thought:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;maybe the reason why i don&amp;#8217;t like some of the great players other that those 4 is that, i&amp;#8217;ve become close minded. i don&amp;#8217;t really know how federrer plays, or murray or nadal. especially federrer, who is argued to be the best tennis player, i couldn&amp;#8217;t get myself into liking him. maybe because i know somehow that he is a threat to sampras for me, whom i consider the best. i don&amp;#8217;t watch his games and i refuse to watch it. i just know that he must be really good to win those titles. and even though he is the best this time, i don&amp;#8217;t know his style at all.  &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;hmm..i want to start watching tournaments again..djockovic might be the fifth on my list. i wanna know his style.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;and someday, i&amp;#8217;ll play tennis. i mean, learn how to play tennis. =) &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://areelyz.tumblr.com/post/29137908862</link><guid>http://areelyz.tumblr.com/post/29137908862</guid><pubDate>Fri, 10 Aug 2012 14:55:54 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>actually</title><description>&lt;p&gt;i don&amp;#8217;t believe that you are not aware&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;how long do i have to keep swallowing my pride to be able to say i&amp;#8217;m good to go?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;how long do i have to keep up with my guilt and frustration to myself?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;now, i am making my own mistakes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;there is no one else to blame.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;i think i need to learn to forgive myself and move forward, keeping my head up.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i can&amp;#8217;t give up now.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i&amp;#8217;ve just been getting started.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i just have to suck these all up.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;there&amp;#8217;s so much to learn.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and if i have to learn it this way, &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;so be it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;i&amp;#8217;m dumb and stupid.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i know that now.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i used to think that i&amp;#8217;m smart enough.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i guess i was so wrong afterall.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i&amp;#8217;ve been fooled.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;so easily,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;it&amp;#8217;s a spank!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;but i take it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i&amp;#8217;ll learn from it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;this how i learn in life.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;this is how i build my confidence.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;learning through my stupid mistakes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i don&amp;#8217;t have to avoid them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i should not be afraid of them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;so what if i did something that i&amp;#8217;m supposed to know is not right?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and so what if i don&amp;#8217;t see the deceptions in front of me?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i learned now how i easily believe people. mainly because, i always see the good in them first. i don&amp;#8217;t always think ill of anyone. i always want to believe that no one is so capable of doing very bad things. i&amp;#8217;m wrong again.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;experiencing these things first hand gives me valuable lessons.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i know i should be smart enough to avoid these mistakes,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;but i can&amp;#8217;t be too hard on myself if i didn&amp;#8217;t.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;i know, i will encounter more failures.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;but i won&amp;#8217;t give up until i finally get to that success  i&amp;#8217;m aiming.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i know i&amp;#8217;m bound to lose more.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;but i&amp;#8217;m positive that i&amp;#8217;ll gain more in the end.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;i won&amp;#8217;t hold myself down if i make mistakes from now own.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;but i can&amp;#8217;t let others just know about it yet.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;because i&amp;#8217;m still working out on that aspect of not getting affected so much by what others will say or them having prejudices.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;in time. &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://areelyz.tumblr.com/post/28630274461</link><guid>http://areelyz.tumblr.com/post/28630274461</guid><pubDate>Fri, 03 Aug 2012 11:07:47 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>HxH</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Gon knows what he wants to do, Killua doesn&amp;#8217;t.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;Just because a couple of your recent hunches were slightly off the mark doesn&amp;#8217;t mean that your intuitive skills have bitten the dust! Don&amp;#8217;t lose confidence in your gut today, because it will help you steer clear of some unpleasant people. Listen when that little voice says &amp;#8216;don&amp;#8217;t trust this person.&amp;#8217; You are an excellent judge of character, and you will have an especially good eye for seeing through the charm someone is working so hard to convey to you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;given my recent entries, i suppose this horoscope should make me enlightened and would somehow be the clarity. i&amp;#8217;m confused instead.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;or am i?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;because maybe, i&amp;#8217;m just fighting what i believe is what it it meant and what my gut says is true or atleast what&amp;#8217;s real.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;maybe, the hard-headed me who always end up betraying my best judgment is so insistent, persistent and very persuasive that i&amp;#8217;m tailored away to what my gut is telling me.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;i&amp;#8217;m so confused right now but i don&amp;#8217;t have the energy to argue myself out of it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;so i&amp;#8217;ll just play along. see where it leads me. it&amp;#8217;s a risk. i guess, my expectations on this are just equally optimistic and pessimistic. so, it wouldn&amp;#8217;t be that bad in the end. couldn&amp;#8217;t hurt more.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://areelyz.tumblr.com/post/26970359178</link><guid>http://areelyz.tumblr.com/post/26970359178</guid><pubDate>Wed, 11 Jul 2012 06:05:56 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>self talk bullets</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;i can never trust myself&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;palabra de honor - note to self&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;i&amp;#8217;m a hazard to myself - no wonder (why) i love this line so much&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;realization: when i realize something, it only has a 24-48-hour lifespan&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://areelyz.tumblr.com/post/26903962693</link><guid>http://areelyz.tumblr.com/post/26903962693</guid><pubDate>Tue, 10 Jul 2012 10:14:50 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>bullets 2012</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;it is time to do things on my own&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;(i know, the only difference is, this time, i think i don&amp;#8217;t have the urge to rely on anyone else anymore and that i&amp;#8217;m finally coming to my own senses. i think i&amp;#8217;m liberated and and i&amp;#8217;m shaking to the thought of it. i sure hope i&amp;#8217;m not mistaken. kai i super duper like the feeling nga dili mg.agad sa uban taw. i know, i should have known -and i know- and sauna pa ta nku n gbuhat but i think kron pa nka.amgo or nitagam akong huna2 ug kaugalingon. yes, it&amp;#8217;s not mind over matters with me. so this is the big break i&amp;#8217;ve been waiting. i guess, i have to accept one thing. hinai mo.process aq self. i can&amp;#8217;t rush me. i come in my own terms. i just need to be patient.)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;burden free feeling&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;(ing.ani d.i ang feeling. i hope it lingers longer. sigh. cge nlng if knahanglan pq mapakog ug balik2. i forgive myself for that. and i can&amp;#8217;t promise nga it won&amp;#8217;t be this way next time, pero kon ing.ani jud ang mo.work for me, i know now and i don&amp;#8217;t have to be hard on myself nah.) &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;i don&amp;#8217;t care what others say anymore&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt; (in a good way. ksabot nq sa concept nga &amp;#8216;what works for others may not work on me. and what works for me may not for others. -majority does not mean superiority or the only mean to an end. there is always an exception to the rule. there will always be special cases.- so i guess, i have to work my way through this. if it means proving myself to myself and to others, then so be it. i will do this my way. i always have. and so far, i&amp;#8217;ve been surviving, and i will survive.&lt;strong&gt; i can&amp;#8217;t live on other&amp;#8217;s expectations. so it&amp;#8217;s just fair if other&amp;#8217;s expectations of me are not met. &lt;/strong&gt;i don&amp;#8217;t mean it in a bad way, i just thought, if my expectations to myself are different to others, so be it.)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;i am different &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;(i still have issues about belongingness. but atleast, i am accepting that i am not like most of the people around me. i struggle to fit in and it&amp;#8217;s where the problem emerge. if i don&amp;#8217;t fit in, so be it (still have to come in terms with that, and truly believe myself with that) and if i can&amp;#8217;t find a group to fit in, then so be it also. i will not stop looking and trying to find that &amp;#8216;any/some-thing/place/one&amp;#8217; to belong but if i can&amp;#8217;t, then so be it and i think i will be fine on my own. it will be tough but i think i will survive. i had, i have been and i will.) &lt;/em&gt;  &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I AM I&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;(i think, i haven&amp;#8217;t been living up to this quote which i thought i was. i&amp;#8217;m still not sure if i am now or if i will. i just think, i may have just grasp the  real meaning of it. it feels tangible now. it&amp;#8217;s more true to say now. I AM I and as long as i don&amp;#8217;t get in the way of others/anyone and as long as i am still responsible to my duties and obligations, then i can just be me. if others disapprove, it&amp;#8217;s not my problem anymore. let them be disappointed in me.)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;no regrets&lt;/strong&gt; (i know, i could have taken a better road. chosen better options. did better things. made better decisions. but knowing myself and standing where i am now, i don&amp;#8217;t have regrets.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strike&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strike&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strike&gt;confession: it&amp;#8217;s a &amp;#8216;i should have known better but i expected it also&amp;#8217; moment. it was hurtful, as truths always are, but it was also, as always, a wake.up call. and i know, i should have known better but to my defense, as i&amp;#8217;ve said when i failed HAAD, this was like a prerequisite disappointment to realize what i just did. it may have been avoidable and i could have gone through a different road but i&amp;#8217;m glad it happened this way. i has to happen this way because this is what works for me.&lt;strong&gt; i do well with tareping, not abrupt withdrawal. &lt;/strong&gt;it&amp;#8217;s not the best thing but it&amp;#8217;s what gives me the best outcome. CONSOLATION: I FEEL BETTER EVERYTIME. &amp;#8216;MORE&amp;#8217; BETTER EVERYTIME. maybe a little bitter also but still better. &lt;/strike&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://areelyz.tumblr.com/post/26830171455</link><guid>http://areelyz.tumblr.com/post/26830171455</guid><pubDate>Mon, 09 Jul 2012 09:41:51 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>instinct  </title><description>&lt;p&gt;i have always trusted my instinct&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i almost always never doubted it more than anything else&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;it is sometimes misinterpreted as pessimism &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;but expecting something negative to come up&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;differs from being negative from the beginning&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;i don&amp;#8217;t know when, how or why i stopped &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;or just lost my track of my instinct&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;but i have a good feeling&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;that this year might just be the year&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i&amp;#8217;m about to get it back again&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;pessimism aside&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i think&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;my negative expectations&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and the positive validations&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;just landed me on the right road&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;of regaining my instinctive powers&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;expecting the worst&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;is not not being hopeful&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;it is just that&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;there is a fine line&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;between hope and false hope&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;if there is any consolation to this&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;it is that&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;it always feels good to be right&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;even if it means being right&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;about the a negative outcome&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://areelyz.tumblr.com/post/26828598901</link><guid>http://areelyz.tumblr.com/post/26828598901</guid><pubDate>Mon, 09 Jul 2012 08:47:00 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>arguements</title><description>&lt;p&gt;we are responsible for ourselves&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and for our actions and the decisions &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;that we make everyday&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;that affects the course of the path&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;we take in our lives&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;i know what i&amp;#8217;m doing&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i know what is right from wrong&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i know what is good from bad&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and i know what is best for my self&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&amp;#8212;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i am aware of everything i do&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;every other options-better or not&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and i am well aware of every consequences&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;of the decisions i make&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;on how i live my life&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;__&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i know i can do things differently&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;act and feel differently&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;but it changes&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;when my strong personality/trait is weak&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and my weak personality/trait comes out strong&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;it makes the other version of a story&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and i know that it&amp;#8217;s a matter of control&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;over the -/+&amp;#8217;s of my life&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and how i project it to the world&lt;br/&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;but i guess it is never that simple&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;it can make you helpless&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;most of the time&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;when you know for yourself&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;that you could have done better&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;that you could have been better&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;but you just end up being&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;overpowered by your own self&lt;br/&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;you argue yet you lose&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;to no one else but you&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&amp;#8212;-&lt;br/&gt;this is progress-&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;strike&gt;&lt;em&gt;how can i stand up for/to/with others if i can&amp;#8217;t for/to/with myself first&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strike&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;(a great thought to ponder and argue with-with myself) &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://areelyz.tumblr.com/post/26824963377</link><guid>http://areelyz.tumblr.com/post/26824963377</guid><pubDate>Mon, 09 Jul 2012 06:15:00 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>playing cupid</title><description>&lt;p&gt;oh yes&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;my horoscope is playing cupid&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;here&amp;#8217;s what it has to say&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and i&amp;#8217;m pretty sure this is the worst&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;if not the best &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;of my favorites&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;span&gt;Beautiful words will turn anyone&amp;#8217;s head today, so if you have been working up the courage to make your move on a certain someone, today is the day to do it! Get creative and think outside the box with how you approach the situation. Writing a love letter &amp;#8212; or better yet, love song &amp;#8212; will get you noticed and show them that you are not like everyone else. Your extra effort and refreshing creativity is more flattering than any trite come-on or hollow gesture.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&amp;#8212;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;fortunately,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;i usually find my horoscope true&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;if i read it&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;at the end of the day&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;because i don&amp;#8217;t really follow &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;what it says&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;it just confirms what i did&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;gives me something &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;to confirm or evaluate&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;what went through me&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;for the day&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;emotionally, physically&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;more like, in every aspect possible&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;#8212; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://areelyz.tumblr.com/post/26757064086</link><guid>http://areelyz.tumblr.com/post/26757064086</guid><pubDate>Sun, 08 Jul 2012 07:01:00 -0400</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
