Thank You (09032009)

This will be the first of what I hope will be a habit. Amidst all the negativity that I have been seeing people feel, I just wanna be more appreciative of the good things that come (w/c I hope other people would do also), for a change from the normal me. Sir Jet actually started this in his multiply site, because of the same reason why I'm starting my own version. And hello, there are just really a lot of beautiful things to be thankful for each day!

As I am still working on Magis, today would have to be the most stressful day so far. I went to Pasay to check costumes, talked to a lot of people (well, I first had to look for them & it's really hard to look for people who do not really want to be seen), & got reprimanded a few times.

Though so, looking at the day that has been, there a some few things I really have to be thankful for, things I want to be thankful for.

1. Trip to Pasay

- I went to the Ramon Obusan Folkloric Dancers Center w/ my father to check out their costumes. We almost got lost. But when we finally got there, & when I finally got to see the famous Obusan house I've seen a lot of times already on TV, I dunno but I suddenly felt good inside. That was just a happy place. Everybody's living there together - there's the sister of the late Ramon Obusan, a couple of families, the costumes people, some friends who, according to them, likes to hang out there, a lot of dogs, a bird, & some large fishes. Take note: ALL of them are just nice (even the animals), really nice! Plus, the costumes, a lot of them just lying around, are just amazing to look at.

2. Hearing the UP Staff Chorale

- Then, I went to UP in the evening to talk to some people, still for the event. And, I heard the UP Staff Chorale rehearsing, as they are also invited to perform in the show. And gosh, ang galing nila! The way they sang Take and Receive just gave me goosebumps. I hope our staff chorale will be as good as them. I heard they already had a US & Malaysian Tour. How about that?!

3. The hug

- It was the first time you hugged me. And I will forever remember the way it happened. Thanks! :)

Thank You! Really...

I will always remember this adage our teacher in economics wrote in our final long test. It goes something like - Sometimes, you just have to wait 'til night comes to realize how good the day was.

True.
