Onward and Upward

tanned

picking up from friday last week, so i went to attend my auntie's dinner thing, turned out it was ryan's bday. happy burpday! had some comforting talks with my auntie and uncle. it is always best to have someone wiser guiding you through. stayed there way later than expected. all good, being with them is always a good thing. after the dinner thing, i caught up with sfcs at jb's house to hang out with them. mad gab - im always too lazy to say the words. just lazy. black magic was more interesting. black magic, white magic, oh.. fun time! at almost 2 we got to split, joe drove me home. oh well...

saturday morning = work at 9am. :/
field work this time, had to be in fair, a barrio fiesta that is. my gosh, BUKID (which means FARM)! no poise necessary at all. i wore slacks and almost heels, good thing i got slippers in my car. i did good marketing for ms. hot/cold. and she didnt even show up. [what's new?] i burnt myself. i think i got darker by 2-3 shades. my sisters think it looked good, morena. well, when i was younger i was morena. oh well, i stare at my tan, it's okay. :) stayed until 5. we (sfc) were even supposed to do a number, waltz.. i knew the dance wasn't possible because of the absence of 'dancefloor'? so we skipped the dancing and did more marketing this time for the gk dance (worth my deeper tan). they just stayed for a total of i think 30mins, they left and i and charlotte+kate+nirath (our asian brother) stayed until 5pm. it was 91 degrees out there. imagine that...

to calm my weary newly-tanned arms, got home, took a long cool bath. and something new to refresh my weary soul as well, i went to attend a yfc meeting. all good, the talks, the praise and worship! i stood outside the hall but sang with my heart. i had fun just watching those kids. i wanted to do a sharing but time was not on my side. it's okay, if in another time, i will. i wanted to tell them that they must enjoy their youth while being good. and with the troubles i am going through right now, i wanted to tell them to live and enjoy while they have their parents beside them. it's difficult when you suddenly realize you are in charge of your own life. im being melodramatic here, i better stop. it's great to be independent, but sometimes you just wish you're 12 you dont bother what's happening in 5-10 years. i hope you get what i mean. damn, im getting old, err mature.. it's good to see them there and not going astray. something to smile about. god bless you all. :)

went to the chapel to calm my restless mind, said my prayers. joe joined me not too long after. talked about whatever. then had to leave the church. went to his house, i finally had the guts to tell his parents about my earthquake. i wanted to cry but i did not. my tears might have all dried up already. got some comforting words from them. [wont forget]. actually, joe and i were supposed to go meet up with my sisters and our club-friends that night and go club-hopping, got lazy, and surprisingly, i got a headache. i pulled out of the plan. anyway, going back. conversation was up til almost 3am, until i got a phone call from one of my friends. had to rush home. ooohh.. had to get some things straightened up. my muscles work. longgggg day. needed to rest. shhh... cb. :)

so sunday, i had to deal with the scorching heat by myself. at the bukid again from 1-5. sat the whole time and just chatted with this one guy who kept going to my booth. he started telling me his life story, i listened. then several people, around 6 came to my booth from a certain ministry. it seemed people actually come to me. :) talked to most of them about different things. i wasnt bored - at all. went home. i missed tennis. after mass, lounged at home [lounged??? yep, felt goooooddd. nice bath + movies!] hats off to charlotte, lawrence paid her a visit! yeeha! i had visitors too, joe and jema! we watched sky captain and the world of tom. after the movie, they had to got home because they were all dirty and stinky. [hmmm.. as joe said]. night then, fell asleep eventually.
