I was thinking of blogging last night but I felt sleepy and so I dozed off. =)
The year 2011 was eventful, memorable and heartbreaking at some points.
Last NYE, Jieshua got into an accident that left his chin scarred up until now. (and forever, I think.)
I got pregnant this year although I'm not quite sure if it's May or June.
Rob and I were shaken by the unexpected pregnancy. Of course! Who wouldn't be?
But we're now very happy about it. Yay! :) *squeal!*
We
lost our paternal grandmother last June. It was so sad and our family mourns for the loss until now. :(
Jieshua also first set his foot in school this year. The kid is so hyper his teacher complains! HAHA. :)) Here's how his
first day went.
Academics were manageable for me, Thank GOD! :)
Finished my practicum!! Thank GOD, again!! and also thank you to my Practicum supervisor, cooperating teacher, friends and my thesis partner, Kristine!! :)
This year, I actually started actively blogging again! Yey!
Aaaand... Rob and I had a really rollercoaster year of ups and downs.
As the new year approach, people make fuss about kicking old bad habits and getting good new ones.
Come on! I've been there. It's easier said than done!! The most common new year's resolution is maybe lose weight. FUCK THAT! With food that entice you to eat like a dinosaur, how could you lose weight, right?
I plan on not having a new year's resolution cause I cannat keep up with it and I end up disappointed and thinks of myself as a failure for not religiously doing the NYR.
Enough of that.
Last night, aunt and cousin, Kuya Larky visited and invited us to spend NYE at their house. I really wanted to come but my mama and papa wanted to stay so I stayed.
Anyway, after all the chit chat and catching up, I realized that family will always love you and will always be there for you.
They could have strangled me to death by being pregnant
again. And in the most unlikely time - just before my graduation. But they did not. Whew! What they did is show their concern and support for me.
How I love my family! I miss the old times when we used to go to our grandparents' house and spend Christmas Day and New Year's Day with each other. All of us. :|
Last night was also a good time to be emo. No, I did not slash my wrist whatsoever. Veins are still intact.
Don't you just fear the future?
That's how I felt last night.
The future is so uncertain and that uncertainty brings fear that you can never suffice. or ... or.. that you can never live up to the expectation.. Worst of all, I have two babies relying unto me., totally my responsibility and what they become is because that's what I made them.
And if you have that kind of power, wouldn't you be fearful that you might just be not doing the right thing?
I don't want to dwell on those kinds of feelings. It was good that I felt that just before 2012 started.
I felt it, acknowledged it, then moved on.
EYES ON THE GOAL!!!!
We should learn to keep going for the gold..
The future is uncertain. But maybe, that's the beauty of it. Not knowing where you'll end up means chances for you to change it and make things happen.
This 2012, let's all be happy and set our eyes on the goal. Do not be distracted. Have faith! :)

Three things will last forever -- faith, hope and love. And the greatest of these is LOVE. ♡
Happy New Year, everyone! ☺
