.the end of summer, on to a new chapter in high school.
before anything else, allow me to greet all our superheroes, dear fathers: happy, happy father's day!:) this goes out especially to my dad (whom i don't think is reading this, haha.), happy father's day papa!:) you've been my shoulder to cry on, my sweater when i'm cold, my inspiration, my Superman, my great father!:D love you dad! oh and also to lolo. hey lolo, happy happy father's day! mwah. thanks for all the care and the warmest support. i love you both BIGTIME. haha.
enough of the greetings, on to my last post in summer '07. oh i know, i haven't maximized the pleasure of using the net and actually posting regularly while school's out but i did my best. just that sometimes i didn't have the eagerness to write. but now, it's just my honor to recap my summer and all the wonderful things i've learned.
whatta summer!;) i'd be lying if i say that i didn't enjoy it 'cause even if i was usually home, i really enjoyed summer '07!! haha. hmm. i'm pretty much enjoying my being "sweet sixteen". brings to mind britney's song, "i'm not a girl, not yet a woman." i find myself actually growing (not literally, 'cause i'm not getting an inch taller) and maturing. haha. dapat lang naman, di ba? haha. but i thought at this stage in life, i'd be very irritable and moody but turns out the opposite. i'm enjoying and having fun. this summer, i've had the time to relax, to think about things in life, enjoy friendships, cherish my time with my family and of course, with myself.
relaxation. it's quite ironic, i love to sleep early when we're back to school but i actually enjoyed sleeping super late. as in late. but of course, there's the luxury of waking up late too. that's one thing i super enjoyed this summer. but i have to recover and adjust my sleeping time again because school's just around the corner and it'll be most likely tougher.
reflection. summer allowed me to communicate with myself further. haha. sometimes, i think it stupid but it helps when you try to understand things and you figure something out when you talk it out loud in solitude. haha. sometimes i do that and mind it actually helps. i figured out that life must be taken one day at a time. do not overdo things. preparing for something in the future is good but as we all know, we cannot predict the future and we just have to simply seize the day. carpe diem!:) also, communication is a must. if we don't try to talk with the person we're dying to talk to, it'll just end up --whoosh! nothing. i've been texting a lot of people now that i've changed network and usually i'd hear some friends asking about this or that, wanting to talk to this person churvas.. courage! that's what we need. :D courage to overcome obstacles, courage to tell the truth, courage to simply carry on one day at a time. ;)
friendships. i've gained friends this summer and i'm happy with it. hopefully, mas lalo pang dumami. imagine life without friends... haha. i've remained in contact with most of my friends especially in school whom i really miss and it's just so fulfilling to still feel the friendship even if you're far away. :D haha. to all my friends and future friends, a toast to our friendship. :D (get a drink. ;D haha.)
quality family time. now that we see vitto growing and schooling, i'm glad that i spent most of my summer time taking care of him and watching him learn. so glad. :D one more thing, they say that during your adolescent years, you kind of move farther away from your fellas, well in my case, i'd be nothing without them. and this summer, we've spent the entire time together. that's what made my summer soooo special. i especially loved our beach party in zambales. that was super memorable. love it, except the tan. yek. haha. :) who cares? (sabay ganun.) haha.
time for me. yes,yes, yes. summer has thought me to help myself. now that i'm getting there, finding him (whoops. wrong.)..finding and figuring out who i really am and will ought to be, i've got to love myself more. and that's what i'm doing and i so love it. haha. :) i love you, me. :D yek.
oh anyways, summer was a bliss and tomorrow's the start of another chapter in high school. junior year definitely won't be an easy year. tough year is here to come and i'm ready to face it! face it with me, kiddos!:D
goodbye, sweet summer. :)
