010220 | MEETING STARK & CODY!
I spent the 2nd day of the year killing time with one of my best friends @/exequielmanalo who has recently moved to a nearby subdivision.
He accompanied me paying bills
I had some of my remaining Taiwan Dollars exchanged back to Peso
Transferred to another mall to have dinner at Yellowcab (where we surprisingly bumped into @tepsteph and her family)
Had coffee together and got myself reunited with the classic iced caramel macchiato!
Spontaneously caught the last full showing of Miracle in Cell No. 7 at the 3rd mall we went to (And did cry loads of tears!)
Visited their new house and played with his cute doggos
I am never fond of dogs until we had to adopt two lovely puppies last 2018. One of them died at the most ungodly hour and changed my feelings for doggos forever.
Meeting Cody and Stark today brings my heart so much joy. I wish I have taken better photos although I promised to be back soon and revisit these fur babies.
(I shall update these photos soon)
But I’m giving today’s highlights to two things
Having a long good career and life talk with one of my best friends! Hard times like this, I am very sure that it would always be easier to have someone to share your thoughts to. And I am beyond blessed to get myself a couple of people who would never think twice of lending their ears to me. Thank you, God for blessing me more than what I have asked and wished for. It’s even better to visualize your plans for the coming year with a few friends whom you know would never turn their backs at you.
I was finally able to go back to my room tonight. For two weeks, I didn’t have the courage to sleep alone in my room for it reminds me so much of a few memories I shouldn’t bother to think about anymore. I avoided sleeping solely to get rid of unnecessary emotional nights and heavy mornings. I even drained myself to sleep just so I wouldn’t have extra time to be sad. But tonight, I felt braver and calm to put back my bed inside my room and settle down. And it never felt better to be lying down again without any worries.
This moving-on phase is circus of sorrow yet learning and joyful scenes. I am just glad to be celebrating my small but meaningful steps. Good job, self. Keep living.
