Thanks everyone <3

*Woke up 4 in the morning to study for Crim II. Haha! That’s how we do it in the law school. Still studying even if it’s Christmas already.
*Checked my FB account and saw lots of greetings <3
*The traditional birthday breakfast with the family.
*Long ride conversations with Daddy, who dropped me off to Rockwell first before going to Bataan.
*Had my hair and nails done :)
*Checked my FB again and saw even mooore greetings. Didn’t have time na to reply, though.
*NO CRIM II!!! =))
*Almost cried with my housemates’ letter and surprise. They gave me Nina Garcia’s The Little Black Book of Style (which I super super super want) and yummy cream puffs :D
*Mongkok with Dors and Estelle. I love their seafood roll and their red bean cheesecake! And best of all, their price! I only paid 360 for everything na. Super cheap!
*Laughtrip moments with the two while waiting for a cab
*LANTERN PARAAAAADE!
*Saw my YFC and PsychSoc families <3 YFC and PsychSoc will ALWAYS be family to me. I got lots of hugs, greetings, aaaaand they sang for me. Haha. It just felt so good seeing friendly, familiar faces. And really, those two orgs have a way of making you feel really, really loved :) Too bad I wasn’t able to stay for long. Looking back now, I wish I stayed for at least 30-45 minutes more with each of the two. Super kulang talaga yung time. Anyway, to my batchmates, I’m sooooooooooo happy I saw you. To my ates and kuyas, thank you, too. I still look up to all of you. Always have, and I guess, always will. And to the younger batches, I love you all <3 Haha. I never thought I’d relish being called “Ate Rhea.” In my earlier years in college, I loathed the idea. Because I loved being the baby. But really, I’d like to thank you for making me realize a lot of things about myself, for giving me an opportunity to step up and take on responsibilities for sucha big family. Thank you for the trust. And I must say, I’m soooo proud of you guys :)
*Dors and I spent some time with Norman, my best guy friend in elementary. Woohoooo. I love elementary days! I had a very happy childhood, thankyouverymuch. Haha!
*Central with BLOCK A! I had fun! Thank you for coming :D And I went home very much sober! Woke up very much sober as well. Haha. Thanks to Ernie who drove for us home! And thank you all for half a year of memorable law school moments :)

Family dinner later! So maybe this is the first time I’m gonna celebrate my birthday with my family on a day other than my birthday, but I don’t want to be sucha drama queen about it na. Haha. I had lots of fun yesterday with elem friends, college friends, and the block naman :)

I feel bad though that I didn’t get to hear mass :( Lord, sorry. And superrr thanks for granting my wish :) It was a happy day, after all! On the way to Central, Dors and I were talking about how sometimes things don’t really go according to the way you planned it, but ultimately, what matters is that at the end of the day, you’ll discover that God’s plans are actually way better than yours :)

Another year older, but not necessarily wiser. For my 21st year, I pray that I may be more mature AND more child-like at the same time :)

“Hearts need a mind. Like a clock needs the time. Like white needs black. If you leave I hope you’ll need to come back… You got so much love in you. You got so much love in you. I’m amazed that I’m talking to you. You look like the songs that I’ve heard my whole life coming true.”
-So much love, The Rocket Summer. One of my favorite songs of all time. This is for all my friends. You all amaze me in different ways. And I’m blessed to have all of you :) Listen to that song, listen to that song! It’s a happy song and it’s my song for you! :)
