The past week had been a struggle for me personally. I felt like I was in a rollercoaster ride once again trying to unravel everything worthy unraveling about. But in the end, it’s all good, it’s all good. I was just amaze at how I was able to ironed things out. Every single thing. There’s just so many people to thank about. Friends who’s always up there to rescue me all the time. Friends who just never give up on me. Not yet I guess. How could I ever thank them? I know there are a lot of ways how. Countless ways to say thank you and that is exactly what I should do.
It reminded me that we should always try to spend quality moments with friends. I’ve been away from my family for so long that I consider my friends as my family whether they like it or not.
Obviously, as we get older it becomes harder to make time with our work schedules but it’s important to always put in a few minutes with them. Even if it’s just a cup of coffee for 10 minutes in the morning before you begin your day. Or maybe watch American Idol together. Sounds really fun!
It may not seem like much but I believe that those are the moments we all hold on to when we all have to be on our separate ways soon (drama). It’s the five minutes you spent with them laughing over a joke or even the half hour when you held their hand while they cried or when I cried ( tnx M). Memories, both the good and the bad, are all will be left of us and we should all have as many of them as possible.
These last few months have been amazing for me on that account, because I’ve been able to spend time with all of those who truly matter to me. I’ve go to spend time with friends and I always get my 20-minute (at least) catch-up time with them over the week or a lunch or two on Thursdays and Fridays, and if not, then definitely a cup of coffee every morning. It’s really nice to have these times to look forward to in my week. It’s surreal, it’s amazing. My friend Jaleesa should know…hahaha!
I’ve had my own little brush with the ever-turning circle of life this week. And I have to say I am humbled and awed by the thought of how all-encompassing it is. It’s amazing to think that this happens every single day. As simple a conclusion as it may be, it makes me appreciate my own life and every single day I have to live it.

i agree with you na whether a five-minute talk habang nagkakape sa umaga, or one-hour chat habang nanonood ng american idol... its not really the quantity that matters but how you spend that precious time para sa mahal mo sa buhay...
padaan lang po...
ay takot akong sumakay sa rollercoaster. once or twice lang yata nung kasama ko siblings ko. pinilit kasi ako ng bro ko. as in super pikit ang mga mata ko sa takot *hehehe* tapos super hold ko ang bar ng upuan kasi feeling ko mahuhulog ako *lol*
anywayz, i do hope things run smoothly at your end. magkape tayo one time ha *hehehe*
it is always a good feeling when you spend time with your friends. daming kwentuhan. naalala ko tuloy ang siblings ko. kasi when we bond, kanya-kanya kaming luto then ipagtitimpla kami ng kape ng aussie bro-in-law ko. bongga di ba? :)
enjoy your weekend seksi.
