// Why do we tend to over analyze?//

GUILTY. I over analyze everything. And when I say everything, I mean E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G! I guess a lot of people can relate with me. It’s not that we love solving puzzles or such, it’s just that we can’t help but think too much and analyze every situation we’re in.

And the most common thing that we apply it to is in our relationships. Why do we tend to complicate things? The more with think about a certain situation, the more we analyze it, the more we tend to push the person away. GUILTY.

I’ve always been the type to be vocal about my feelings, but also the malabo one. Not that it’s intentional, I just happen to be on defense guard at all times - walls just happen to grow taller & thicker every single time I feel something for a person. I’m not talking about the friendship level of thought here, but the deeper one. It has always been my problem. When I’m certain that I like someone, I tend to be that stupid-malabo-girl-you-will-love-to-hate. Because I just always end up having all these questions in my head & the reason why is because I am scared that the person might think I’m assuming something.

It’s a silly disease actually. Often, I think I need to get medicated because of it. HA HA! I’m always the curious one, so when questions pop out of my head, I need to have answers & when I don’t get any, I go crazy.

But then again, when you dig deeper into the actual root of the problem -  why you’re afraid to ask & have your questions answered is because we fear rejection. We fear it so much that we’d rather have all our questions left unanswered, but what if the answer waiting for it’s reveal is something beautiful? Life’s too short to dwell on things that can hinder us from living life to the fullest.

// Who says we all look alike? //

<3

Although, I don’t get along with them most of the time. I’d sure to take a bullet for anyone anytime. Never will I exchange these people for anything.

They are my greatest criticizers and weakness. They are NOT a fan of the Jane Sy. But they are the people that will always remain true to me. :) 

I know I’m not that vocal to my family about how I feel about each one (WEIRD! Cos I’m super vocal to friends about how I feel about them.), and I have my own little “JANE SY WORLD” but in those rare times that I can, I blurt it out to the world. We’re not a perfect family, we’re far from that. We’re dysfunctional actually. But that makes us unique. That’s how a DELA CRUZ - SY roll. :) 

// Trying to find reasons..//

..But always fail to do so.

When you tried your best to grab every opportunity that may lead to answers to your life-long questions. Or reason to your agony, you just end up hurting yourself more. Somehow, the people that care less about mishaps and agony are the people to be envied about, because they find time to live life accordingly and not worry about the future.

Is there a perfect formula to live life? To fall in love? To find love? Or to stay sane? If there was, people would have lived in a world where challenge can only exist in dreams. Or perhaps, not exist at all. 

Challenge is what makes the world a better place to live in. It’s the core of human existence.

Now, I ask myself this: “Am I up for the challenge?” “Will I step up my game?” Then the list goes on and on. 

Anonymous asked: Hi Ms Jane! have you ever pushed someone away and regret it?

YES. I think I am a master at this. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not proud of it. I used to fear commitments. I used to forever doubt the friendship people has to offer to me or the sincerity of boys.

I do regret pushing people away. But now, I can proudly say that I’ve become more trusting of people. I guess, you just need the right set of friends and support of your family to grow out of it. :]

QUALITY OVER QUANTITY. ALWAYS.

August 5, 2011 The Thomasian Welcome Walk 2011 that was!

I together with my team of 4 - Alaizza Quiozon, Jade Refuerzo and Pamela Arcilla did the HMUA for the Models for the said event. Here are some of the photos from that night. Sad to say, we weren’t able to take photos of all the models we did.

Anonymous asked: How do you manage haters?

Hmm..forever ako may hater. And I don’t really give a damn about it. I guess if you know yourself well enough, you’d be fine. :)

What I do is I try to absorb what these haters are throwing at me, process it, then reflect. If in one way or another they seem to have a point, I accept their criticism, try to change it then move on. But if what they’re throwing at you is entirely false, let them be. You know yourself better, and you have friends to back you up. I always let karma do all the talking for me. :)
