what happened to me these past few days?
some of the highlights i remember:
- i met theyie last saturday at glorietta. it was really fun because i got to see her in person. sayang lang that i was coming down with a cold so i was not at my best that day. despite that, we did have a great time.
- i helped iris coordinate her friend, jen's wedding last october 30 at century park and san agustin. helped because i wasn't into events anymore. but iris is a friend of mine and jen was really a super nice person so i agreed to help them. actually, rolex, her husband now, is a batchmate of mine but we weren't really close. but despite that, it turned out to be a great wedding. am really happy because before their wedding, jen was so harassed with the details... and on that day, the sound system was held up at the elevator because they got stuck and the century seafood restaurant service sucked big time... pero all's well in the end. buti na lang! they had a real live band called the real groove and tyrone, the band's manager was really nice. it made the wedding fun, too because after the guests left and a few friends gathered near the stage, it became a jamming session. a lot of friends sang and danced. nakakatuwa. but na lang iris, edison, joe, denver and kim all helped. after it all, i gained a new friend pa in jen.
- mika, my cousin's 1-year-old daughter celebrated her christening and birthday last sunday. the theme was pooh. masaya naman though there were only a few kids. next sunday, another cousin's son will be celebrating his birthday... and the next kay Inigo naman! sunod-sunod ang birthday parties!
- had a weird dream yesterday. I dreamt Ate Rose was mad at me. Siguro subconscious ko na i still have some guilty feelings of leaving the choir. it's really tough. kasi although i have so many reasons not wanting to go and some reasons why i still want to go on... circumstancially, hindi ko na talaga kaya and i know tapos na ako sa stage na yun. I have different priorities now. but even though i justify it, i really don't know if that was a right thing to do. but i do know that where i am, God is allowing me to step back from it all because maybe I have forgotten why I was in the choir. Kung dahil ba masaya lang kasi ang choir kaya ako andun, or is it because of the friends i had or was it service ba talaga? and if it was service, wer do i get the inspiration na? That's why I like my state of life now... kasi i know that if I do certain things, I know what's it for and I know why I am doing it.
i guess that's it so far.
i'm kinda worried over the kerry-bush presidential elections. i know kasi that bush isn't all that great, but he is pro-life. kerry is so anti-life... he supports abortions, stem cell research, etc. etc... and the impact on the philippines once he's in power will be damaging again. because the funds for contraceptives will rise and then, matatalo na naman ang prolife cause nyan because we don't have much and they have so much!
pero God, ikaw na bahala. Am sure whoever you put there in position, there's a reason.
i read in my emails about the youth encounter ng fccy and how successful it was. am happy kasi joan was the one who coordinated everything and she did a job well done. and am glad that there are a lot of people who are rejuvenated with their service. sana tuloy tuloy na sila.
hanggang dito na muna ako...
