She was a nine-year-old rape victim, and might have been so for years. She went to the hospital because she had severe stomach pains. When I was at that age, my teachers were only trying to explain to me that girls get their menstruation, and that girls sometimes get cramps at that time of the month. My mother was teaching me basic girl things like putting on a pad. Nine-year olds cry when they trip and scrape their knees.
I can’t even begin to imagine the pain she went through before she had to go the hospital, and before her emergency abortion. But I can imagine that I would turn to God and my Church in a trying and difficult time.
Now imagine what it feels like to find out that even they refuse to give you the strength to get through this.

MAGS. WHY MUST YOU TORTURE ME?
So hi guys, yes. I love to eat. My parents and the rest of my family have always been the ultimate foodies. We even have a family group on facebook where we either share what movie we must watch next, the latest funny post, or a food post. It’s 70% food posts. We are a family of adventurous eaters. BUT BECAUSE MAGS SAID I CAN ONLY NAME ONE, I’d have to say bibingka.
Oh yes, that warm fluffy rice cake with that slight smokey flavor from the banana leaf, topped with slices of red egg and toasted coconut shavings. OH MAN.
Scrolling down my Tumblr dash, I saw my friend Mags’s post of her own box story. Without reading the analysis, I made my own box story. The outcome was odd, but it somehow made sense. Below is my attemp to turn it into a written piece (and after it you will find what each symbol stands for).

Spiderwebs. :(
This phone needs to be replaced. Hi mom, I’m ready for the BB now. ;_;
In other news! I was talking to my grandfather on skype just a while ago. He was telling me about how cheap “the new” iPad was, then asked me if I wanted an iPad. I said yes. DUH. I did have this feeling that he’d send me one, but a part of me thinks he’s just kidding.
He better not be kidding me.
He already got me way excited.
I want my iPad now. AHAHAHA and I was so proud that I do not own a single Apple product (not even an iPod. NOT EVEN EARPHONES!)! Oh wow, first it was the decision to take the Blackberry over the Android phone. Now it’s an iPad. WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME.

We were innocently playing around with the new refrigerator magnets. We came up with stuff like TINY CHUM.
My father? Well he came up with this.
