My BirthMonth
- 21 years ago, a heavenly gift was born to bring joy to the world. Who else? Jerica ganda! HAHAHA. I could say that this year is the most different birthday I had in 21 years. First, it's because I spent it not in the Philippines, but in a place where dreams come true a.k.a. Disney World and Universal Studios. Second, I normally have at least more than 2 celebrations every year (one with family, 2 with different circle of friends) and now I just had one. It's kinda normal that I am not excited when my bday comes and this year was the year that I really never felt that my bday is coming. The new people in my life really worked hard to make this day a special one. Good thing that facebook is alive, giving an inexpensive way for people who are a plane-ride away from me to greet me a happy bday. I would say that my eyes got tired of reading countless greetings on my wall. It made my heart smile that they took time to type in "Happy bday, jhe!"
- Month of hearts. Lovers around. Flowers. Chocolates. Red/Pink. Hell! I'm 21 years old and I haven't got even a rose on Feb14. crap! One thing that I would want to change when I get back to the Philippines is my fb status, from "single" to "in a relationship" and not "married" cause I wanna get married in the Philippines and I promised that to my more-than-a-decade-friend, Cecille. My imported nephew, Bryce and niece, Stasia are gwapo and maganda. They are half Filipino and half American. Seems like a nice combination hahaha. Operation Get a Caucasian Boyfriend NOW IN PROGRESS.
- I remember from Lorenzo Tan, President of RCBC, that to be successful, you need ABC, A for Ability, B for break and C for Courage. I think I got A (thank you DLSU), B was given (thank you Thomson Reuters) and I just need C. I have to work on having C, though. I've just been away from the Philippines for a couple of weeks and in that span of time, I was able to go to one of my dream destinations, New York! Lucky, right? But, I think it is more of a blessing. It was snowing when I got off the plane! yey! Snow! And all I can sing was, "New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made of There's nothing you can't do Now you're in NEW YORK!!!" I was able to meet our counterparts and tour around the city with all expenses paid! It was a short stay, but I loved it! Got to go to NY for free, stay in Millenium Hilton, get good food, see the places you see only in the movies and enjoy the company of new friends... such a blessing! I would love to come back to NY and work there! hahaha! I mean, I love the busy life and I would want to work for the biggest financial institutions. It is a dream... a dream I would want to reach.
- Right now, every thing seems uncertain. It is one thing that I don't like. If you'll ask me today if I would want to go back to the Philippines, my initial answer would be "Yes", but I would probably say "I'll make myself rich first" next. All the opportunities are laid in front of me and I wouldn't want to turn my head away from it.
