So many things happened to me for the first week of my 19th year. I had a wonderful day last January 6, I spent the day with my best friend, guy friend and two girl friends. My mom gave me the most precious gift—she finally enrolled me to A1 Driving School! :D Although that “gift” was supposed to be given since I started going to UP. Oh well, and then she surprised me with clothes, 2 t-shirts and 1 jacket, I woke up and saw it in my bed (because I sleep in my brothers’ bedroom) Hahaha. I love the feeling of waking up with surprise. And my little damulag brothers were undeniably sweet the whole day, each time they see me, they would greet and hug me. *awww* They gave me their birthday greeting cards, it was the sweetest thing ever. I was very proud of it that I showed it to almost all of my friends, masyado akong nasiyahan, hahaha.
And then, last Saturday was A1’s Driving Orientation, required for us to attend to before we start going hands-on. Then last Tuesday I started taking the lessons. I was freaking out a little, but I think I was able to conceal it quite well though. Haha. It was so fun, I admit it was nerve-wracking since it was really my first time, but what it really requires are confidence and self-trust. It was quite tiring, my left butt cheek hurts terribly because of the clutch! Hahaha!
Surely it was the best gift I received for my birthday. But most of all, nothing could replace the thought of those people who genuinely remember that day. And thanks to Facebook by the way.
School works are jam-packing once again. Reports, paper works, assignments, and projects, good thing CommIII’s impromptu speaking’s over. I had the topic—Jollibee VS Mcdonald’s. FTW?
It’s only recently that I started to look back and realized that almost everything has changed. I noticed how I’ve decided long ago to change what I used to be in my family’s eyes, and now I felt it deeply that they see the changes I have pursued and continue to pursue for such a long time already. My mother is finally beginning to see that somehow I’m a worthy daughter that she once thought was her biggest regret. There are things in life that we don’t really understand unless we give in and give up our senseless pride. This year is going to be a good and fine year. I consider year 2009 as one of my tragic years, but it is nevertheless memorable for the chaotic and meaningful events that I never would’ve thought I’d survived.
