Great day

Today I am celebrating my **th birthday and I'd like to spend it with you.  Let me bask in your love and realize how deeply I am blessed to have experienced this great feeling.  Just being alive and knowing that you are always there makes me feel content.  I hope to remain this way and I'd love and serve you all the days of my life.

This is my only birthday wish: that forever I will remain in your love and let me share this love to the people around me.

Deja vu

You don't know what you've got til it's gone. How true.

For weeks, or perhaps months already I've been denying to myself the fact that I like this certain person who has immensely shaken my heart from its hermitage.  And now that I think he's beginning to invade this private recess of my life, and soon it will be revolving around him, like my personal Sun in my self-made solar system. And upon realizing this, I would like to take a few steps back because everything is a deja vu.  I wouldn't want to commit the same mistake again and fall in the same pit again.

Ironically, I'm holding on to this feeling yet trying to hide what I really really feel. It is my greatest fear that soon I will lose him.  And sooner than I expected, I will have to let go of him and move on.

My **th Birthday

Next week, I'll be celebrating my **th birthday.  And to make this year's celebration different, I decided to spend it with the kids of Bethany Orphanage and my friends who are kids-at-heart. :)

♥ We Found Love ♥

You are a surprise, a bonus and someone I did not even hope to find in the most unlikely place.  Thank you for making me smile everyday.  Thank you for adding color to my life.  It's like the gray walls and burgundy granite floors turn pastel everytime we walk past them.  Each day, I'd look forward to see you waiting for me at the door.  And in the afternoon, I'm hoping to find you with a cup of coffee ready for me.  

See how much you've changed my boring office routine to something that will make me look forward to go to work.  I really appreciate you being there to listen to my stories, and wacky ideas. I also love to hear how your day went, your dreams and crazy ideas to beat mine.  We really are doing good together, don't you think?

We indeed found love in the place I least expected to find it.  And I hope this one lasts forever.

First Love

They say that first love never dies.  I can also say that it holds true for me.

For several months I stayed away from my passions only to find myself reconnecting to it.

Just recently, I got involved in the production of a short film.  This project is another first for me, though I'm not quite new to this field.  I've been involved in several shoots before but all related to my work as a broadcast producer for promo plugs.  This short film is very close to my heart, not only because I headed the project and wrote the script, but it led to a wonderful discovery that this is one heck of a passion I never dared to give a chance before.  And now, I am glad that I did. I am delighted to know also that my co-director shares the same dream and passion, and it's really good that this project turned someone's vision into reality.

Also, this short film project got me missing college and the university organization that honed me. 

Lately, I've been searching for schools to enroll in again.  Around this time last year, I was applying for a dream course.  But fate won't allow me, and I know why He had to delay my plans.  So now, I've been looking around for some school that offer me a theater arts or a marketing communications masters degree to fit my schedule.

Early this week, I discovered a local theater group with an advocacy program directed to children's welfare.  That really piqued my interest and got me thinking of signing up.  And it made me realize I should enroll in my marketing course soon.  As I recall the personal statement I submitted, my intended research will focus on children's theater.

Last week, I got to play my violin again.  With the callouses in my fingers all gone now, it was hard at first.  On Youtube, the Vitamin String Quartet uploaded several new videos and they got me so inspired again.  Also, I got to download music sheets of Adele's Someone Like You and Bruno Mars's It Will Rain.

With more time in my hands now, I feel that I can focus on these passions that keep me in high spirits. I will continue to perfect my craft, while I wait for the next passion, love interest or activity to occupy my life.
