Jedde's Diary from 2020

By -


We have entered a new quarter for the year. This same day of last year, many things were different and I decided to grab my diary and re-read what I've written. As I scanned, I was amused at my scribbles, touched at my insights, and felt glad that all of those things that happened last year helped me grow into who I am today. 


And so I thought to share some of my thoughts with you from last year. 


I wonder, what kind of feelings, emotions, thoughts, and ideas did you have from 2020? While you think about it, feel free to have a look through mine in the photos below. 


Love,

Mary Jedde

Silent Surrenders

"You are expected to be the strong one; the unbreakable. The always on the go, always successful,  always the one who knows where she's heading. But what they don't know about are your silent surrenders. When your mind shuts down because it's too full. Full of worries. Full of uncertainties. Full of insecurities and doubts. You break down and quietly give up. They don't know about it and you don't talk about it. And the day goes on and on and on. With your loud victories and your silent surrenders. Close your eyes. Count the stars. Get lost in a galaxy far away. Imagine its vastness, think of its depth. And when your tears fall,  let them disperse into tiny diamonds. When it's become too heavy to carry, and you're on the verge of whispering that you're tired, know that you  can make diamonds from the tears in your eyes. And your brilliance can rest when the moon appears tonight. Just let the night embrace you tight." Written by: Mary Jedde

Into the Blue at Adventure Cove Sentosa

It's so uncommon for me to get free tickets, but this time is different! Woohoo! (Thank you, sponsor!) 30 June 2018 - I cannot keep my excitement. It's finally tourist mode for Alex and me. We decided to meet up at Vivocity at around 10 in the morning. I arrived a little later than that. Nonetheless, we arrived at Sentosa just nicely - not a lot of people flocking the queues yet.  Here are some of our awesome fun at Adventure Cove! Our cute tickets. When we entered the gates, our bags were checked and we were asked if we brought outside food. Apparently, outside food is not allowed. We did bring, but the guy never asked us to leave it so yeah. Our first stop was a Maze. A cute concept with some simple ropes course on top of it! These "waterfalls" and random water splashing at your face when you go through this maze. A pirate ship-themed water display. We didn't go to this one just because it wasn't as interesting. (To be honest, I ...

One Delightful Afternoon at Marisse Patisserie

"Where do you want to go next?", Alex asked, right after we enjoyed a generous lunch at The Gallery. I got mad at him because he was late and I was really hungry. You know that feeling when you can't think properly when hungry right?  "Well, there's this place I want to visit.", I replied. Alex is my partner in crime, my best bud and my boyfriend. We enjoy eating food together and going to new places. Fun fact! Before I could tell him the name of the place, I showed him the map first.  Why? Well, that's because I'm such a loser at distinguishing locations and giving directions. I showed him first because I know it'll help me convince him easily if he knows where it is. Compared when I say the address in twisted words.  "It's here, located at 32 Sanson Road.", I said. It is the road between Anita's and Auto Gas Station across JY Square in Lahug, Cebu City, right beside KAYU: Kitchen + Bar, also a...
