I made it!!!

I just want to thank everyone for the love, support and especially for offering your prayers for the last few years. It's been a LONG and sad journey, but I finally made it. Finally hurdled that BAR.

Blood, sweat and tears talaga. There were better days, but most of the time, it's been a test of faith. And courage.

Thank God. Thank you Our Lady of Perpetual Help, Our Lady of Manaoag, St. Jude, St. Therese of the Child Jesus, and all other saints. Thank you Holy Spirit.

Thank you Lolo, wherever you are. I'm honored to continue your legacy as lawyer.

Thank you Lola. I know that of all the people, you prayed the hardest.

Much love for my family. Sobrang team effort ito. From my mom to my lola to my other relatives in the States and Cebu, they supported me through this.

Special thanks to my friends too. Alam niyo na kung sino kayo. The true ones, ha?

Also special thanks to my multiply friends. :)

I would also like to congratulate my fellow bar passers: Mariel, Adrian, etc.

Hay. I'm so happy. This may be the happiest day of my 29 years of existence.

Again, thank you.


The soon-to-be Atty. Rose

When you press me to your heart...

I'm in a world apart, a world where roses bloom...

La Vie En Rose is a movie about the life and career of French singer Edith Piaf. Apparently, she's a cultural icon, and recorded a lot of songs, which are still heard today.

While I am not so impressed with the movie, I was blown away by its star, Marion Cotillard. She looked so different in real life. Although Marion lip-synched much of the singing scenes, that does not mean she did not give a less than stellar performance. She deserved that Oscar.

To all my friends...

At least to those I have been out of touch for quite some time...

I'm sorry I haven't responded to your calls, texts, PM, YM, etc... I'm so anti-social. Been going through stuff. Hopefully I get my life straighten up. I would love to share with you all what's on my mind lately... but I can't right now... it's been mind-boggling these past few years. Hope you guys understand.

Anyway, just want you to know that I'm ok. Still alive and breathing. Anxious. Waiting. Happy sometimes. Had my bad days too. I do have a few chosen people whenever I need somebody to talk to. But they have their lives too, so I'm mostly on my own. But yes, I'm slowly picking up the pieces of the mess I made. And I'm beginning to see that I may have a place in the sun after all... So there.

I'll get in touch with you soon. Take care, you all...

Some random thoughts...

I suffered a one week affair with food poisoning. And as I'm recovering (slowly), I see my officemates were avoiding me for some reason. Maybe because the real me is beginning to show. Oh well... Hay... Office politics. I don't really hate my officemates, I'm beginning to be quite fond of them. It's just that... mahirap silang sakyan. I don't mind the asaran, I'm not just used to make asar back, maybe except to those people I know well... How do I get out of it without losing my focus to my work... which is beginning to be a problem to me. I'm getting bored... and I haven't even gotten used to the work yet. *Sigh*

On the other hand, I had a wonderful dream last night... I hope it's going to come true in a few weeks' time... It's actually my first dream about... IT... Could it be? Shucks. :)

I hope to see more good signs. Bahala na ang mangyari sa akin sa office. Hmph.
