24 and counting

I love birthdays! I always make a big deal out of it. I'm starting to think that I am really a narcissist because I love the me-day so much! haha…

This year I turn 24. I guess I can't sing 'Real' as much as before anymore. It was really my '23' song. But now, honestly I don't feel any more matured. I haven't really found out that something that would make me feel real. Nothing much has changed actually but I think I have all the reasons to be thankful. 24 and counting… and although there are many things I complain about my life, the truth is at the end of the day, I still can't help but count my blessings and just be thankful.

Lord, thanks for the great year: the MBA experience, the new places, the revisited places, the new dreams, the old dreams I never stop to seek. Thanks for my ever-supportive and loving queer family and friends. I know I shouldn't be asking for more. For all that has been and will be: YES LORD! Amen.

To the wakeboardies and BJs, I really owe you so  much! Mad cows, thanks sa pagsalubong sa official and technical birthday ko. BJs, though we don't see each other as much as before, I know nothing much will change. BJs will always be phenomenal BJs. Guys, thanks for bearing with my issues. Just stick around guys. That's more than enough. Looking forward on more therapeutic travels and sessions with you.

DLS click berks, thanks for making time to meet up, for making me forget time whenever we are together and for making me always look forward to the next time we'll make a fool out of ourselves. Talagang puro time. haha!

Puritas, thanks for making 'the place' still bearable. As much as I hate to leave you, I'm itching to do it soon for the love of the greater force. haha.. Thanks jootz! We really should be calling each other jootz instead of badat because it's always a laugh trip session with you. 

Special mention to the following people. I know I said I don't have a 'person' and these guys are the closest that I can have. 

Rica - Best! Thanks for all. You are still one person I can rely on after all these years. We've been bestfriends for a decade na pala, can you believe it? Natagalan kita? haha

Maui - my roommate, double-sis and one of my best friends, thanks for knowing when I need to hear the 'honest' opinion, the just-so-you'll-feel-a-little-better opinion, 'the' opinion, and the no-comment-i'm-just-here comfort.

Tin, there's so much to be thankful for. Thanks for simply being the thoughtful Tin we know!

Mica, thanks for or therapy! 

and most especially to my soulmate, my dearest MOTHER! Thanks for being truest life form of a soulmate. Thank you for listening on how I make a big mountain out of my simple issues. I don't think I deserve all that you've given me. I love you very very much 'my. You are the best person in my world!
