Dropping by.

Hi TLKC.

The little kid misses you, a looot. Just sending her apology because she hasnt been able to write and talk to you for quite some time. In a week or two, you two will catch up, perhaps. She's been busy with some thingumabobs that she still couldnt tell you now.  If someone visits you, be good and entertain him/her very well. Always make sure that the person who visits you is having a good time.

According to the little kid, she is hoping that the next time she writes here, she'll talk about the best gift that she prays that she'll receive.

Your will, Lord.

Its the 2nd of August. Yesterday, I woke up with a feeling of being a bit anxious of what this month might bring. For the most part, I am nervous about the results of the exam I took. If you know what I mean. Despite the nervousness, I just lean on to that one great Man above. I just hold on to His plans for me. I believe I share the same feeling with my co-eagles. I dont know how to write down everything in my mind right now. Seriously. I know, I gave my best. And I believe its pretty normal to be a little scared. Yes, I am excited; Yes, I am nervous. 

There are no rooms available for negative thoughts. I wasnt born to think that way, (I guess). I maybe scared right now, but I just let the owner of my life write His plans for me. So, lets pray, yes?

To those who have been praying for me, thank you. I love you my prayer warriors.

To my co-eagles, I can not wait for that day to finally arrive that we will all soar high together. PS let us continue to storm heaven with prayers.

PS. Lord..this August, THY WILL BE DONE. Its all in your loving hands. Amen.

What: ABNUIN The Reunion 

When: July 19-20

Where: Valentino Resort

Who: ABNUIN Members

The real plan was an overnight, a real get together. We planned it like one week before, a day before the 19^th, plans changed. Instead of swimming, they decided to just spend the night drinking @ Central Lipa (beerhouse which I haven’t been yet). At the said date, Nico and Dennis dropped by to my place to discuss some get-together matters. So we three agreed not to go to Central and try to just go on to what was really the plan, swimming. So we settled some stuff and had ourselves ready so do Ate Maan and Tine. Thing is, unfortunately (buuut thank God) we didn’t make it at Valentino Resort so we just headed to La Leona Resort after passing here and there. To cut the story short, we ended up celebrating in La Leona.

We had to haggle so we can get a comfy room at La Leona, and they just gave us more than what we expected. Thank you, La Leona.

We took photos, we took a lot of photos because the last time that we went swimming which was 5 years ago, we didn’t have any pictures, so there.

The jump shot was epic. Ate Maan was very fortunate (haha) to have a remembrance from those epic jump shots. She got a little wounded. Her knees got a little scuffed.

The Great Part is: we all enjoyed. We all had a blissful overnight

Sad Part is: We were not complete. (There’s still a next time). The saddest person while browsing the pictures would probably be the Abnuins Beauty Queen, Mary Ann Llamas (Tangkad). We all expected her,  unfortunately, there were some conflicts with her sched and stuff.

Thanks to Nico’s tripod that we had group shots.

9 years ago, I met them. 9 years later, we’re still the same old us. Finding ourselves in each other’s company. Enjoying every bit of our kick-ass times. But it was so obvious that we think maturely, no more immature talks. 

Unlike any other barkada-relationship,  we rarely see each other during the college days, we rarely bond and get along, we rarely exchange text messages and comments on facebook. But unlike any other barkada-relationship, it didn’t matter at all. When you know someone is your friend by heart and soul, that someone will forever be your friend. And that’s just us. Nothing has changed. We didn’t need to see each other just to prove that hey-we-really-are-friends. No. Our friendship didn’t grow that way. Our friendship is proven and tested even from a distance. We can all attest to that.  These people, they were the few ones who really know who I am, what may scare me, what can make me cry, what can make me stronger. They know so many things about me. They are more likely my better-than-the-best buddies.  The friendship is deep. Just proves that what we have is immeasurable.

Parenthetically, we also made it to the point that we celebrate it on 19-20 so we can celebrate the 8 years of Nico and Tine. (NicoTine loveteam). Yes, 8 years.

ABNUINS, 9 years and still counting.

I learned how to make use of my craziness skills from them. They are one of the predisposing factors of my Craziness Disease, but it didn't matter at all. My entire system has fully adjusted to them, and can never get rid of them because my system loves being with these crazy and kind-hearted people who have remained at my side, through thick and thin, even from a distance. People you really refer to as your friends. 

Time to share the photos!

@ the pool.

Catching up!

Happy 8 Years, Loves.

While we were on our way home, the NicoTine treated us in Shakeys for Lunch. Yumm! Thank you!

What now? Once an Abnuin, always an Abnuin.

Overdose of Joy

While the rain pours outside here I am again, sitting in the sofa and will try my best to blog about the joy in my soul just now. Just before I sat on this red sofa, I went to my brother's house which is few b ocks away from our home and had lip-smacking lunch there. Every time I go there, my nephew Paul will always say 'Menmen, picture'. So its always been more of a picture taking. Every time Paul poses I find myself smiling, and when Sean does his tricks, I smile too. Too young kids make my heart smile. I know I am being biased. But seriously, when I look at Paul and Sean, I find the world a more beautiful place to live in. They are stress-free and smile freely. While walking on my way home, I was telling myself, those kids are really my joy. Yes, they dont know much about this life and what is really going on in their world, how chaotic our country is and stuff, but seeing them makes me want to go on more with my life and work harder. Someday, they can decide on their own, they can go on their own, but while they are that young I want to spend every single day with them and cherish our fun times and enjoy being kids. Paul and Sean are sweet and smart kids. They are adorable. I thank God for giving me  nephews like Paul, Sean and Dom. They ease my sadness.  My life has been at its best when Dom, Paul and Sean came.

PS. I am a proud Tita. I cant wait for December, i can cuddle the three of you.

Joy overdose.

Truth is...

I am not very vocal here about my relationship's predicaments and stuff. But now, I am here to write down how grateful I am-- again for having Patten. We've been together for 3 years and 6 months (43rd month on the 29th). . Everyday, I thank God for giving Patten to me. All these years he has continued to be my best sounding board, my shock absorber, my prayer partner, and my human diary.  Cheesy, yes. But I am really grateful for all the things he has done for me. I try not to talk about him as much as I can because it's cheesy and I want to make it private. But allow me to just express how g.r.a.t.e.f.u.l I am. How many times have i said grateful? Excuse my mushy-ness. I always find it hard to scribble my thoughts well when it comes to Patten. He's no extraordinary, but there are so many special things about him that I find it hard to tell. 

I've committed a foul in our relationship. Foul means, something that shouldnt be done in our relationship, so its foul. If some are used to lying in their partners because their partners wouldnt allow them to do what they wanted to do, well i am not. Now, I just have the courage to blog here that, I lied to Patten. (not that I chose some other guy over him, okay, (its not that). Lying is an issue in us because we dont lie with each other. And we never tolerate lies. It was just after I realized (after the lying and stuff) that I cant take it. Small or big, I cant because Patten doesnt deserve that. So, I eventually told him about what I lied about. I knew he'll be mad, I knew i should accept what the consequences may be, I had to be ready if I wanted to let him know. I knew it all. What I only kept in my mind that time was: He needs to know because he doesn't deserve a single lie.

I was lucky enough that despite him getting mad about the causes of my lying, his girlfriend lied on him, and stuff, he just hugged me and told me not to never do that again. He set aside his anger. His love for me was unfailing. Something I should always be proud of. Yes, it wasnt easy to be courageous enough to face it. It wasnt easy to say hey i lied to you about this and that, sorry for making you look stupid, sorry for this and that. Why? Because the damage has been done already. Too late for some apologies but I had to apologize. But I dont want to be too hard on myself, more importantly ... I never want to be unfair to him. So, thats it. Face the consequences no matter how miserable you'll be. But heck, I am a lucky girl. Girls should begrudge me. Id never let go of this guy. Never. He's a lot to lose. The one whom my soul loves. Cheesy but true. The little kiddo must be really grateful.

PS: The Truth Will Set you free but It first, itll make you miserable.

Truth is, i am a lucky girlfriend.
