Meet them closer..my top 12 of 2012 :)
1.MAMA BING and PAPA GER
These two will always be on top of my list.They keep me eyeing and shooting for the stars.I hugely
appreciate them for giving me the gift of freedom this year.I learned a
lesson of going solo and taking charge
of myself so as to breakaway from my
comfort zone.It was pretty obvious though that im a mama and papa’s girl coz
not a day goes by that I don’t receive a text message from them.Im one
lucky daughter !
2.Mark Ron Jefferson Gonzaga
This year is a perfect mixture of sweet&sour.SWEET (
for spending his 1st vacation
on my 22nd birthday..and our
5th year as bestfriendsandlovers.) SOUR (for going through hell
lately!)I learned that distance will never be a reason in falling out of
love.And most importantly,to keep the relationship goin,if something is
broken..fix it rather than throwing it away.:)
3.Shashating Dulay
I call her “shashating”.My youngest bebe cousin.I was
surprised with the sweetness of this cute lil girl when I got my vacation at la
union.And besides,she is a smart and witty kiddo.lesson learned? I would’ve
take kid’s innocence with me and their always curious minds. The way they asked
you questions you can barely answer.Reminds me badly with my childhood .
4.Krizzle Mae Joy Fontanos
My baby bro Gervin’s
girlfriend.I met her for the first time this 2012.I thank her for being
my lil bro’s inspiration.Even if she’s still inside her shell and somewhat shy,Im
happy for Iben, having a girlfriend who is pretty and smart at the same time.I love smart
ladies!And to add being thoughtful not only to my brother but to mama
and papa.Lesson behind is, everyone’s busy growing too fast.If you don’t stop
for a while,you won’t catch up the good things around.My baby ading surprisingly,fell in love for the first time.(*insert
silly smile here*)
5.Mommy Aida
I am happy to celebrate mom’s birthday for 2012 together
with the whole family.And I am grateful to see her healthy and still kicking.i
love the times when I slept beside her as we share stories and as she asked me my future plans.I feel
really blessed with grandma like her.and of course I’ll never forget my ever dabest TATAY Ben.They occupy a big
part of my heart.lesson?Grandmas are the most heart-touching advisers.Lucky I
got one!
6.Sir Francis Kong
The author of my very first book of january 2012.Luckily,I
met him for the first time and had my
first book signed by its author.I love
his witty outlook with life that inspire my little heart.The lesson I will
never forget from him is: LIFE IS TOO
SHORT,take a good grasp of it!
7.OLLH FAMILY
My second family away from home.These people ,though serious
and stressed most of the times were the most sensible and responsible people I
ever met.People come and go in the lab this 2012.New faces all around.But one
thing Im sure about,they molded me professionally and personally this year.Im
just as thankful for having real friends around
who make a toxic duty a worthy one.
8.Jomar Mallare
Early this year,I spent a day with him at Enchanted Kingdom and a
night-out experience.This rarely happens,that’s why I consider him on the list.He
is the friend I have that I can talk to with everything.When I am happy or
heart-broken,he got ears ready to listen.Evrytime I think of the friendship we
have,I remember the line from the perks of being a wallflowers that goes.. "I know these will all be
stories someday.And our pictures will become old photographs.We'll all become
somebody's mom or dad.But right now these moments are not stories. This
is happening...This one moment when you know you're not a sad story.You
are alive and you stand up and see the lights of the buildings and everything
that makes you wonder.And you're listening to that song and that drive with
people you love most in this world.And in this moment I swear,we are
infinite."(FYI: I watched this movie alone.An epic for 2012)
9.Ate Cathy Betty Sanchez
A stranger who turned
out to be a friend.I am thankful that because of the “hello kidney shirt”, I met someone with a great passion in life.I read her witty blogposts that made me indulge
into writing and blogging. She is someone I met this year who I really admire.Behind
her health conditon,I sense a tough cookie in her and her exceptional faith is
amazing ..She inspires me bigtime this 2012.
10. TP
Everytime I read TP as an acronym,the first thing that
clicks on my mind is TROPANG POTCHI.But TP here means TEAM PRO.Pro-yabang(haha!)Mark’s
barkada.A fun-filled swimming galore night with this cool group last June.I love
the way they joke around and I felt real
friendship in them. I look forward for the next destinations to come,don’t
forget to count me in.
11.Phoebe Nedia
A friend in an enemy.2012 is all about closing an old
chapter and of patching things up to someone who belongs to the past.Ive been
rude to her and found out that I am stucked on my own quagmire.I was hurt so
did I also hurt her.She made me feel close to my devil.But then again,forgiveness
is the sweet smell a flower leaves on the shoe that crashed it.
12.Dor,Sarah and Victor
The characters of THE TIME KEEPER (my favorite book of 2012).It
is a life-moving story.Kudos to Mitch Albom for
this book.And its lesson to live by.. “With endless time, nothing is
special. With no loss or sacrifice, we can’t appreciate what we have”.
*Thank you to these 12 people who make 2012 a year of happiness :)
