I thank God for putting us in the same place at the same time.
For the first time, I cried.
It was a gloomy yesterday for me. Unbelievably, I was miserable the day before my birthday. I am not the kind of person who cries in front of a person because I just can’t. Even if I’m too depressed, I can’t cry if someone is watching me. My tears are too shy to pour out if there is a person who can see me.
Yesterday, I was in the computer laboratory helping John on his SAP, I went to the comfort room just to cry. After bawling my eyes out, I head back to the computer lab. We were not talking much on the way home (it was 9 PM when we decided to get home) and John keep on asking me what’s my problem, what was our problem. He was worried, but I told him we’re fine, I’m just tired and I just don’t consider that day my day. We rode a UV heading to our destinations and he let me sleep on his shoulders to get some rest and not to worry of things. I looked at him with teary eyes and said “Ang lungkot ko today.” and I cried softly. I was ashamed of myself because we were in a public vehicle so I tried my very best to hide myself crying. He asked me what was my problem, he asked me a lot of things, like if napagalitan daw ba ako, o napahiya raw ba ako, o dahil hindi raw ba kasi ako nakakain ng KK dougnut holes. That reason was so petty but funny. When I was calm already, I tried to close my eyes and think of how grateful I am for the blessings I keep on receiving. My road isn’t full of candies and rainbows but the people around me make it at least more bearable. I thought of my family, my friends, my John, and of course my dog.
There will always be a person who can get through into your soft side. I am lucky to have John at this early time at least we can have more meaningful years to be together. I am lucky I got a man who I can get comfortable with.
Be happy everyone!
Happy birthday to me!
Next year pa anniversary namin pero naghahanap na agad akong fine dining restaurants. Pota. Well, at least alam ko na magkano iipunin ko diba? hahahahhaha!
Someone paid me a visit yesterday just to watch Jones Cup. Screen player lang ata si Paras sa Gilas e. Di na ako pinapansin ng bisita ko kasi badtrip siya sa nangyayari.

I’M GOING TO SEE ARIANA GRANDE!!
SO MY FREAKIN AMAZING AND AWESOME JOHN BOUGHT ME ARIANA GRANDE CONCERT TICKET. BOYS GET ON HIS LEVEL . I AM NOT SURE MYSELF WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS TICKET AND JOHN.
John and I went on a “date” yesterday. A nice way to spend the last day of our prelim exams. We went to MOA to try ice skating. But before that, I’d been craving for some good ramen for a week, and being a princess John took me to Ramen Nagi for lunch. Ramen there was so good!! I tried the green one and and and I can’t explain everything about my Ramen Nagi experience because it’s just too damn good. (That ramen up there was John’s tho. I finished my noodles when I remembered taking a picture of it so I took John’s instead. That explains an almost done and red ramen) After eating ramen, we then go to the skating rink. He is a good skater, what do you expect to an athlete? (Psh.) It was my first time skating and I can say I am a good one for a beginner. I just fell 4 times within 5 hours of our stay there. But I had a lot of “almost” falling experience which didn’t happen because luckily I tend to reach John’s hand to get balance. (look how tall he is, he literally saved me from falling a hundred times) Two of my falls, I dragged John with me. I really feel bad up to now, because OUR last fall, we literally slid and got wet. Our pants were soaking wet and we hurt our thighs. But, you won’t learn and enjoy skating without falling right? I had a dilemma, I wanted to hold John’s hand while skating but I wanted to learn. So instead of skating while holding hands and be cheesy I told John, “Bantayan mo ako baby.”, watch for me when I fall. I am a very competitive person so I skate not slowly and not surely because I tend to push myself faster. And because of that I almost (thanks John for holding and watching me) fell a lot of times. After enjoying and learning to ice skate, we went to coldstone to get some ice cream and chill. The ice cream in their menu looks so good I wanted to try all of them!!! I got cheesecake fantasy and he got chocolate devotion. We had this funny convo that proved how “woman” am i.
John: Ang sarap nung iyo dahil sa fruits. Okay lang ako na umuubos?
Me: Okay lang, ikaw naman nagbayad e. Pag ako nagbayad, tigilan mo yan. HAHAHAHA JK.
We’ve been dating for a year already. Thank you so much for waiting and being so patient to make “us” work. Thank you for taking everything slow, and enjoying every moment. I appreciate you. And, I love you.
