Thank You (01222010)

It's been a long time since my last post. And I think it's good to make this one about thanking.

1. Thanks for my old job. I really enjoyed it. It made me realize that kids are just sooo much fun to be with. I'll miss them so much.:(

2. Thanks for my new job. It was my first day today & it went well, quite good in fact. I hope I'd do well in this job 'cause I feel like this would determine my future.

3. Thanks for making me move on from illusions & false beliefs. Thanks. :)

The next few days, I predict, would be stressful physically & emotionally. It'd ba a time for confronting concerns, standing for what you beLEIve in, & hoping for better things to come.

I kept on saying that I would definitely do my best to make this year's Christmas  fun & happy. And thank You making it happen. So, thanks for

1. a happy, albeit simple Christmas celebration. And thanks that, surprisingly, my sister's family decided to spend Noche Buena w/ us. I, yes I, prepped a hearty Christmas meal for us. Good that they liked it! *Wink* Ahaha... Kids are just fun to be with. I love my pamangkins!

2. making me have money to buy gifts this year. This is actually the first time I bought gifts for friends & family, 'cause I normally I'm penny-less. Ahaha... It really made me feel good that they liked what they got from me, especially because I really thought of what I'll give out to them. Now, I'm back to being penny-less. Ahaha...

3. friends, for real friends. <3

Salamat Po-

1. para sa aking WYA hoodie at lumang sumbrero na hindi ko naman talaga isinusuot 'pag lumalabas. Sila ang nagpabuti (kahit kaunti) ng pakiramdam ko kahapon.

2. at, sa aking naging sagot ko na, 'Hindi. Gusto ko lang talagang maging ayos siya.'

Salamat!

Alam Niyo Po na ngayon higit kailanman ko naramdaman na parang hindi na ako natuto. Pero nagpapasalamat pa rin Po ako sa mga bagay, bagaman ang kanilang pananaliti'y panandalian, na dinudulot ng pagiging tanga ko.

Maraming salamat Po!

I know this one's quite delayed, but thank You po for the gift of life. For the past few days, I've been constantly reminded of how amazing & hopeful life can be amidst all the hardships & confusions. 'Cause even the problems, they make the good things about life more beautiful.

Sa gitna ng pagod, lungkot, at mas marami pang pagod, gusto ko pa ring magpasalamat para sa-

1. Masarap ng pininyahang manok na may gata (for breakfast-lunch),

2. Malaking crispy chicken fillet at mas marami than the usual serving ng spaghetti sa Mcdo (for dinner), at

3. Pagkalabit niya sa aking tagiliran (for midnight snack).

Salamat Po! :)




P.S. 
Please keep me hopeful...

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.
