-)the much needed…
im 3 days away from the opening of the 2nd and my last semester..
ive been such a diligent student (except for the last semester ;0) from since the saling-pusa days til around before i got sick, and realized that hey, even God took rest on the 7th day, why can’t i?
i guess im lucky enough i didnt fail any subject even though im not as serious as i used to. being good is tiring too..
And maybe God wants me to realize that i can’t be everything, and He made me sick so i would reconsider being a workaholic.
Just before i enter the next semester, i had what i would call the much needed break.
1. Bataan immersion. my first immersion outside of the city. growing up in my province doesn’t gave me the right notion of what it is to live in the rural areas, more importantly, with fisherfolks. These people are blessed. they know how to be satisfied with what they have yet never letting go of a better future for their families. I met a 4 year old girl named Patricia who never told me her real name and age until i had to bid her goodbye. she was always smiling at me, and she’s always holding my hand. I took care for 2 days.. and i want to take care of her forever. she wanted to go with me to the city.. i said no. she’d rather not know.
2. Bohol escapade. Mom asked me if i wanted to go to cebu, i said i prefer Bohol, so i could meet face to face my mini me’s, the tarsiers. it was fun. and i learned how it is to be at peace with nature. snorkle for a day… never felt too tired. slept under coconut trees.. laugh.. prayed. it was one of those rare moments that one will surely thank God for the beautiful world that we most of the time, missed.
3. Laguna-Bulacan-Manila. Went home to meet some friends then pigged out. Then went to bulacan for a wedding, then head home to Manila and pigged out again.
4. movie marathon. til i met u, cute, regine never fails to make me laugh. the prestige, never failed to make me wonder. world trade center, never failed to make me sad. and will look forward to some other movies coming up.
5. All saints day and souls day. Pigged out. 
I guess im much stronger than ever.. i just need to heal my wounded soul.. and il be back.
everyone deserves a much-needed break.
take it, its worth it.
