HOLIDAYS are always fun and exciting if you spend it with your family and loveones. It makes you think that indeed there is no place like home...that no matter you work hard and even if you meet a lot of people who become closer to you, nothing beats the warmth coming from the hugs of our dear parents. It just feels GREAT! PRICELESS :).
I spent New Year with my family in Batangas. It was great and fun because I had a chance to talk to some relatives which I don't normally do. In the past, my father always pushed me to mingle with them however, I rather slept in the house or watch television. Last year's was different because I was very active. I went to the market to accompany my mother and tita to shop. I also did some internet surfing, you know I can't live without net. (joke) I opened my email and I found out that Mom Arigo sent me a mail. I was very touched then coz in her message, she thanked me for being loyal to John and to his team. wah! Thank you so much Mom, mwah :).
I also visited my cousin's house to make some chikka with them. Ang daming issue!wahaha. Dami ko palang namissed. hayy. Well, that's the price that you have to pay when you're working in Manila. You have less access to the news in your place. Like what happened to my former cru*sh..hehe. He is getting married na pala. And just last Dec. 26, binigyagan yung baby ng kababata ko..ammm..bakit parang may bitterness? joke lang! It was NEVER an issue to me. Well, nakaraan na yun. It will just be a part of my youth.
Since Media Noche was coming, we prepared a lot of food. And since we're only four in the family, that includes my cousin who's living with us, my Aunt also joined. Of course, we missed the kids so much. Too bad they had to spend New Year in Manila. Kaya hayun, miss na miss ng tatay ko ang kanyang mga apo*.
MOST WONDERFUL THING: Hugs from my parents^^ that was last Christmas morning before we had our super late Noche Buena. Though I'm 24 already, I'm still a child in my parents' eyes. I will always be their BABY! My mother nga pala didn't forget to ask about John. haha. She knows kasi that I am an ARIGOholic. Ofcourse, I told her that John had some injuries but he's getting better now. She didn't asked about chubz..wahahaha. My Mom kasi thinks that John is more handsome than him.wahaha...soooo funny! Siguro dahil mestiso..ang nanay ko talaga. :).
Being alone also in some moment allowed me to think about some of the best things that happened to me in 2007. Anu-ano nga ba yun?
BEST TRIP: It's my trip to BAGUIO! Hands down, the best. The best coz its my first time there and I did it alone, not with a relative. Though I was with friends, still it differs from the trips that I had with family and relatives. Though I wasn't able to explore Baguio that much because of time constraints, I still cherish my Baguio experience sooo much.
NEW FRIENDS: Ofcourse, I met new people and had new friends last year. From Arriba, Hanna and Christine became my textmates and friends. Ang sweet nila! And even if we're islands apart, we always keep in touch through text. Sisses, I am very happy that I get to know you last year. I really hope that I can meet soon and that we can cheer for John. And ofcourse, I met ICE, my PBA buddy. haha. I really enjoyed her company because I learn a lot from her, about PBA stuff and others. Parang magkapareho kami ng wavelength nito, haha. Hey kumare, thank you so much! I'm really hopin' that "kumpare" will be back this year already. You miss him, don't you? :)
NEW CRUSH: Ofcourse, I met new people and I had new crushes. (Crushes daw?)haha. Most of them are ballers! But before I enumerate their names, I would like to emphasize that having a crush is different from being favorite. John will always have my loyalty. It's just that I need to appreciate other ballers' looks and skills, too. I'm just human!lol
This year, I had a crush on Cyrus Baguio :). He looks really simple but he rocks when he's on the court. He also looks simple and harmless though he's playing for a physical team RedBull (peace RedBull fans!).Also in my list is SLR's Ryan Reyes!haha. Bilib ako sa kanya kasi he's very promising and he's a good pointguard. I'm proud of him coz he's from Batangas, too. Could he be the SLR's "real deal?" Ammmmm..end of discussion for me. They are two different players and whatever happened before was part of the past and Im sure there were reasons why things like that happened.
I won't mention the name of the third one. I thought I'm ready to reveal..di pa pala. lol. Baka next time mareveal ko na. :)
