If the christmas will be considered as a fever, it's definitely and undoubtedly an outbreak by now.
Yes, I was a fan but right after I realized that there's more than the gift-giving, the partying, the festives, the shopping, and the over-eating that can be best descibed as "gluthony", it suddenly came to me that most of us are overdoing "CHRISTMAS".
Bitter as it may seem but I say It was a not-so-happy christmas for me this year. I can't still decipher the reason for all this uncertainties.It was surprisingly a desolate and melancholic holiday for me.
I've been to parties, I've bought the good stuff I've been yielding for months, I kept in touch with old friends, I am so happy with my partner and monetary speeking, I should say it was more than enought, but It left me in despair as the christmas day itself approached.
As I tried to figure it out, It just made me more sad.. as ever. I am facing this loneliness in the midst of christmas. I am not alone.. I was never alone.. But the felling of "something's lacking" made me feel uncomfortable, it almost made me shed a tear.
It was not kaartihan, I guess, I missed a lot of things and I can't do anything to bring them back. As a kid, I had so many unforgettable christmas and some of it are not-so-nice ones. back then, I tried to convince my self that I may not be one of the lucy kids who celebrate the season with their families, with delightful presents, with delicious dishes on their tables, and a "cultured" holiday, but at least I get to be with the ones who raised me and that completes it.
To cut everything, I wasn;t with my family because they're not around. My parents (foster) stayed in Bohol, and my siblings (foster din) are all out of country, so I have to be at the office since I had a shift... but again, I was not alone.. I'm just lonely...
But the new year was great... I welcome the year with a blast at "the fort" and it was, I can say, a lot better that christmas. On new year's day, I stayed at the "Leonen's" with my friends and hang around...
the holliday was exhausting and emotionaly draining.... but saving the best for last is always the best thing to do.. thanks for the presents.. I appreciate them a lot!

catching up again
It took me years to update my blog (exaggeration)... I guess time run so fast that that I couldn't barely recall the last time I even viewed my own BLOG. I have not missed a single month in updating my file but this year seems to be anticipated due to the demands of my JOB. Being a Quality Analyst is more than just a job. It entails a very dreary routine that left me lifeless, most of the time that is.
But on the bright side, I always try to find time to be cheery whenever opportunity knocks on my very own doorstep. From the flabbergasting back-to-back concert of Rihanna and Chris Brown, to the phenomenal Twilight movie, I did not waste my time just the catch these exciting highlights if this year.
Yes, I was there when almost everyone I know attended the much awaited concert of the year. Rihanna and Chris Brown rocked manila as they performed almost all of their best hits as the reigning R&B king and queen of today showcased their talent last November 16, in Taguig. It was a superb experience since the “Beyonce experience tour”. I can’t still help my self humming into “BUM BUM DEE BUM BUM BUM DEDAM DUM” (whatever).
I’m used to being called EDWARD at work, (hoping it will just stay there) during the “TWILIGHT” fever. To be perfectly honest, I was not even in to it’s book and I did not even recognized the fact that it was known world-wide until it became a huge success on it’s motion picture version. I found myself curled in my most comfortable position as I watched the movie last November 29 at the Globe Platinum Cinema at the Gateway mall. Mesmerized, not only with the scenes and effects, but also with the portrayals of Robert Pattinson (also known as Cedrick Driggory) and Kirsten Stewart as Edward Cullen and Bella Swan, It was clear that I was also hooked and even watched it the 2nd time at Trinoma last Sunday.
Now, I am almost done reading its second installment, “NEW MOON” as another mythical creature was introduced. I am only on my 3rd day today and I could say that it’s new phenomenon among the series I was fascinated with.
My attention has invaded once again by “VALKYRIE PROFILE”, the most stunning RPG (role playing game) I have played since legend of legaia, god of war, and Orochie. I am on Chapter 6 and a few more goals to hit and I’m done after a year of almost loosing my patience just to finish the game. It might be the longest game I played to date.
I got my PSP last November. The long wait is finally over. Thanks to my friend.

I’ll be spending the next weekend in BOHOL with my high school friends. Madel came home all the way form CANADA and she was here for a long vacation. It’s good to know that we will be reunited after a couple of years of not seeing each other. The friendship is almost 12 years and it’s only now that we will be on an out-of-town trip. It seems as if it was just yesterday as I grasp the nostalgic memory of our high school years. As I looked back to our priceless and unforgettable past, I couldn’t help but laugh especially on our own misfortunes.. like the most embarrassing “BUBBLE GUM” and “BASA ang DAMO” episodes of my fist years as a high school kid.
I spent my senior year with my all-guy friends after madel transferred to another school but that did not stop us from seeing each other. During college, we still find time to see each other thought it was my time to be far away as I did my schooling in Baguio City.
Moreover, I am looking forward to see them again and I can’t wait to reminisce on the good days we had with them. That is why we can all relate to High school musical (1,2 or 3) since we all experienced that very moment of our lives. (yeah, I watched the movie version… just enough to consider myself sappy.. at times.. I do admit)

It has been a year… and everything seems to be very solid.. the memory began to be filled… though at times, things may drift us apart,, but I guess, that would just make us stronger.. we are growing.. maturing.. days passes… but we are learning.. and we develop.. not only to be grown ups.. but also the relationship seems to be very fruitful… the love has evolved into something mature.. something serious.. I hoped that this would bind us more.. to fight against the adversaries of life… to remain brave… and to be courageous… life would be meaningless without you by my side… I am thankful.. we’re hanging on.. clinging on.. don’t let go… I won’t… I’ll stay with you.. for as long as you wanted me to… for as long as I can your life.. and you are mine…
