Dear stranger,
We live in a world of worst case scenarios. We cut ourselves off from hoping for the best, because too many times, the best doesn't happen. But every now and then, something extraordinary occurs. And suddenly, best case scenarios seem possible. Every now and then, something amazing happens. And, against our better judgement, we start to have hope.
If I can remember I told you about the Meteor Shower Night Picnic at the rooftop. To add on the fact that the weather was bloody cold, I could have died of hypothermia. So I had to come inside the house to rest early and I only get to see 20 meteors, but countless stars. It was magical, indeed.
I think I had neglected drawing for so long so in order to compensate the time loss with drawing, I'm going to finish a whole sketchbook before the year ends. I had lost some of my ideas, yes, but I will try to refresh my mind about art and think of new concepts. I'm hoping to get new materials for Christmas but anything they would get for me would be enough.
The other day, I watched 2 action and romance-filled Filipino movies from the 90s. I'm a sucker for those. And I'm guilty for watching a couple of them in one sitting whenever no one's around. The movie today was so good that I still smile whenever I recall some of the scenes. I went to Starbucks also and had a doughnut and a frappe after that. My sister was there and we stayed for almost 3 hours while she was editing and I was making lists. We bought Mikey's presents since that was the plan and I'm looking forward to exchanging stuff with him this weekend.
Last night was memorable! There was a school concert and a bonfire in the university my sister used to go to and we were there with our friends eating, dancing, singing, laughing, basically having fun. We went home around 2am, and it was really cold, smoke was coming out of my mouth. This weekend is just lovely.
So anyway school has been hectic with all the major assignments piling up. I can hardly breathe because I'm down with an extremely bad cough and flu for two weeks now. To add on my burden, exam week finally came and I've been thinking of nothing but the bright side which is the Christmas break.
I'm starting my new year's resolutions and this is the first time I ever took this list seriously. Hopefully, I'd be able to fulfill them. Other than that, I decided to learn French more. Speaking the language with Ashley had helped but I want to broaden my skill and be able to speak fluently. I might also teach English to Koreans. I would also love to talk to old people on benches and listen to their stories and then have coffee and pie (oh my!) with them and walk them home. There are so many things I want to do and it's never too late to start accomplishing them one at a time.
It's 9am in the morning. I hope your dreams are nice and you wake up feeling exactly how you deserve to feel. Beautiful.
