No storm today!

I have been ultra melodramatic lately. I can’t help it. I do not know any Filipino (or even non-Filipino) who was not affected by storms that just hit our country. I have never been this empathic… and this thankful, that I am still here with my family.

For days a lot of us have moped, skip that now. I’m just happy we are all standing up and trying to help in one way or another. If I would be given a chance to choose to be pinoy again or not, I would without hesitation, be pinoy over and over again. I love my country. super lang.

Though what happened crushed souls, it makes you want to grab anything from life more!

I know it’s a bit early to start wrapping up my year, but so far, I am happy. Though it may look little to some people, this year I felt I’ve grown and experienced a lot. Discovered myself in becoming more fulfilled and now a lot more knowing of my passions in life.

I’ve read more. Played more. Painted a lot more. Sang and danced more. Met amazing new people. And just everyday getting fired up and inspired to live a full, happy life.

Me and my sister have made our bucket lists already, very LOOONG, so here’s just my own very-immediate-for-the-next-coming-months-sorta-bucket-list:

1. diver’s licence – I can now be officially called “master of intro dive”, hehe. I wonder how I have come to a lot of dives and never got myself a decent license. erm.
2. read more books – and articles.. and blogs… I know, sounds geeky, but when asked if you were in an island and asked to bring three things, one would be a great read.
3. violin – must study violin! cant let my violin rot like that, would be a big shame.
4. pottery – my friend introduced me to this and i am very very interested.
5. film animation – my main waterloo in art is cartoon making/animation, I am planning to learn more about this.
6. bonsai – i heard my friend saying taking care of a bonsai can be challenging. I love nature, very domesticated, but you know what they say, if all things fail to design and prove art, move to plants. Haha! Madaya to be frank because nature is an art on its own.
7. Hug more and kiss more – When language is a barrier, a kiss can settle everything bleak.

Sheesh! So many things to do! Exciting!

Great day today! OOH sun! Time to get started!
