OUR 2017 in a Nutshell!
12 months, 12 pictures of us! It was really hard picking only several photos when you have tons of pictures to choose (to be precised, 50+ albums of events), so I secretly spent my night (yesterday) choosing which one should I pick and so far, I think this was the best photos to represent my blog post for this one.
It’s been a year since I last touched my tumblr and a lot of setbacks happened this year which prevented me to create new posts but today (though it’s late) I decided to end my year with an optimistic post which will focus on us, especially on you. To start off the intro, we started our year in a not-so-good events (which was the worst part lol) but it didn’t stop us to look forward and hoped for things to get better. This is the year where we, or I, hoped that this happiness, excitement won’t stop anymore and there are times when I wished that sadness, anxiety, grief shouldn’t had exist, begged to get this over with as much as possible. This is a year where happiness is there, sadness is its back. BUT, He is always faithful and caring, He is gracious, his blessing is abundant and his comfort is reassuring. I’ve learned to love more, more unconditionally; to give more praise when it seemed unhappy. I gave not because I want to/or not but because He deserved it. Rather than hatred, lets pour out the love to each other, so here’s my 12 best months I had with you this year:
1. My tsundere and pabebe partner! Hayo~ still remember our first selfie this year? it’s Jan. 22! and terno pa tayo ng color hihi. I couldn’t get over that time, you know pero hindi ko matiis na magkaron TAYO ng 1st picture kaya ayan, I let you have a selfie with me. You looked so cute and irresistible when you make that face of pabebe and begging “bati na tayo, Chummy” ughh. This was also the time na you’re asking na ilibre kita sa Pares but instead, I brought you to Kenny Rogers to fetch that stomach of yours and you looked like a happy kid and surprised yet satisfied. You deserved it, baby KO. 💕
2. My Couple-shirt buddy! also, my Feb-ibig partner! - You’re my one and only favorite company mapa-birthday ko, Valentines days, songleading and kung anong event man especially yung #WorldPizzaDay 🍕💕 hihi. Perhaps, one of my favorite and best months I had with you! Might as well the ‘most expensive month” kasi andami NATIN gastos but it’s all worth it! Hm. Thank you so much for the unbelievable efforts~ you had me there on my special day, hindi man naging okay yung 1st attempt mo, but you never gave up to make me happy. Kinilig ako dun. And syempre comeback is real, I’ve had return that kilig twice on hearts day hmpf. That was the first time I gave a bouguet to someone, and I loved that reaction of yours when I gave it to you. Hays. I loved making you happy lalo na kapag kinikilig ka sa efforts ko. I really treasure all of your efforts and kung anuman mga binibigay mo sakin. I just love your smiles and the way you’re staring at me.
3. My food buddy! 🍴 🍨 🍩 🍱 🍔 🍝 💕 This is the undenying truth! We became more into food this year! I’d hope naka-gain ka this year😅 syempre, I’m proud na nagkalaman na si baby ko! Yieee~ may bilbil na siya nang konti. WE started to explore and eat more food than ever! Ang cute kasi we’re doing ‘give and take’, there are times that the meal is on you and times that the treat is mine. I’m starting to miss the times when we’re making homemade food, mapa-snacks or sweets! Mas na-turnon ako sayo this year kasi you’ve been doing great at culinary, you know, you can even make cakes already.. compare it to when I met you, you don’t even know how to fry properly. 😂 Thank you for being my food buddy and thank you for making me my favorite cake! I really appreciated it. I also really love these Sundays of March especially when we had the opportunity to listen to Miriam’s testimony.
4. My travel buddy! 💕 It’s more fun to explore places when you have someone you could dragged with, you know me, I’d rather stay and watch anime if I’m just alone. It’s just overwhelming when you passed your term and have planned agendas.. nothing beats ‘study then landi after’ 😉(you know what I mean eherm eherm..) Yung feeling na indoor muna tapos outdoor na~ Despite of not getting too much gala with you this year, I’m still glad and grateful (given the circumstances and opportunity) na we had these rare chances to travel alone. Hindi man ganun kalayo, pero as long as na ikaw kasama ko, super okay na ko. I wanna highlight our Tagaytay trip! There’s so much photos of us, ranging from kulitan sa byahe - to the places we went to - until to dinner, to the point that I wanna post it all but of course, I’d rather keep it private, especially your gorgeous and eye-melting photos hmpf. And as travel buddy, baby, it’s my job to teach you good angle and lighting and what do you/we want to portray on the photos that we’re taking. Afterall, we want the best moment to be perfectly captured and treasure it as a memory. So yun, I’m sorry if there are times that I scolded you for your bad shots, I just want you to learn. So ayun, looking forward for more gala this 2018!
5. My kakulitan buddy/partner in crime! And My ‘Kalandian’ 😉 Ugh ansarap-sarap asarin nitong babaeng ‘to. 😅 tapos kapag na-pissoff, dadaanin ko sa lambing. hihi. Ang cute cute niya kahit matangkad at stick siya jk! There’s a ton of photos to choose of and photos where it’s too cute and exclusive to upload kaya sinarili ko nalang (because I’m a selfish Chummy). I really love this young lady especially when you combined our sense of humor, it will be nothing but endless laughter, korni jokes and tons of fun. 💕 Na-inspired tuloy ako! And syempre hindi mawawala yung mga times na badass kaming dalawa hihi. Ehem. This is the time where I wished na sana ganito nalang parati but it couldn’t be, may oras talaga na malungkot and down ka pero the best part is, we’re here for each other.. kahit na hindi parati. Whenever she’s down or depressed, I tried to prioritize her as much as possible to cheer her up kasi naman, ganda ganda tapos nakasimangot, kaya Chummy to the rescue si acoe (me). Maybe that’s one thing I could do for her even though my thoughts sometimes lurked around and make me realized na it’s unfair for my side. I don’t know.. I don’t know how I went through.. those painful moments I’ve gone through.. that I shared alone, that she wasn’t able to be there for me when I needed her. I’m just grateful that He never leave me and I still continued life. Despite of whatever I went through, I’ll still be your Chumchum. 😊
6. My Ootd buddy! And yea, it’s her birth month! I really wanted to make this month extra special to her. From our kimonos - to black outfit - to stripes outfit! Gusto ko same kami ng suot ihh. 💕 Nakakabitin yung Aikido training namin since we had a short termbreak (especially me), plus the messups that we had midway. It really shortened our moments but hey, we’re able to pull it off! Meron kaming signature pose sa Angelus ulit and we’ve been consistent for 4 yrs! And yea, looking forward this coming summer (but I realized it’s my thesis na huhu but for sake of landi. XD kakayanin). This is also the month where I had a hard time thinking of what to do, what should I give, etc., for her birthday (syempre girlfriend ko may kaarawan eh dapat Bida at da best si boyfie). BUT I’m glad that she had more than enough fun on her special day since we had fights before the day. And why wouldn’t she be unsatisfied, after her actual 19th birthday celebration, may post-celeb pa but this time, it’s only the two of us! Ayun, we had.. 💕 so much kiligs and wonderful time since we had our private moment ugh asdfghjkl first then we went to her birthday wish, to Dog cafe where she got so fascinated of. And it doesn’t end there! We watched Transformers: The Last Knight! Yeeeeeeey! and at the same time, I bought her a gift the day went to date. Hm. I couldn’t choose between photos in this month due to a lot of wonderful events that occupied your birth month, so I chose that photo of us.. I wanna tell them that you’re MINE, and inaangkin kita dyan hihi.
7. My Selfie Buddy! Of course! Our day (most of it) won’t end without selfies! There are times when I was so hooked up on you, to the point na “ikaw lang, sapat na” na feeling in terms of narrowing my vision kasi you’re entangling my sight too much, that I really felt enough. 😵 Same goes to whenever we and the others were taking pictures, my times na gusto ko rin magpa-picture sa iba kong friends (mga girls) but then I remembered you, that I should be fair with you and hindi naman big deal, kasi gusto ko rin na as much as possible ako LANG kasama sa pictures (syempre exempted mga girl friends mo). I realized that I can be that clingy and I felt so much affection being with you. But then, I also realized that too much wouldn’t be good for me, for us. This was also the time that you kept on leaving me behind and I thought of myself if I wasn’t that enough.. enough for you. The month of July implied a warning on me but I still chose to keep going and gave a push once more.
8. My Ministry Partner! 😇 💕 Ughh. Kinikilig ako kapag nakakapag-worship and serve TAYO together! Back then, I was just thinking that it would be that great if meron nga and poof! I met you, and didn’t expect na we’ll be serving Him together. That’s one of best feeling I ever had. I always thank the Lord that I was able to invite you in our church and became a part of it!
