FIRST HALF OF 2015 As personal as I can get

At the start of this year, I went to Pinatubo with my friends. That place was one of a kind. TRULY MAJESTIC. Plus, I got to be with my BFF who is based in the Land Down Under.

The Crater!!!

Pope Francis visited the Philippines and we walked from Welcome Rotonda to UST then from UST to West Triangle. We were so happy to have seen him for just a glimpse. It was an indescribable feeling.

Then I got a new job in an awesome company where I get to be heard and appreciated. Although, I had to leave my previous job and sadly, the people I care about – my second family, life had to go on.

March came together with its bag full of goodies. Ed Sheeran happened. It was such an amazing concert. I only dreamt of seeing him perform live and that dream came true. Here's the story behind the ticket: tickets got sold out the first day they were released. The second time they released tickets, I patiently waited for the site to open but minutes after it was opened, the system went down so I rushed to the nearest SM Mall to purchase a ticket and unfortunately, I was late – 30 minutes late for the mall opening and a line too late. Only 11 tickets were sold on that branch and other fans cried. I just couldn’t give up that easily. A friend told me that from time to time, seats get available online. I kept trying and checking and FINALLY got one! It was…meant to be mine! 

Here's one of the videos I took. Thinking Out Loud

Another good thing that happened on March was the Hong Kong trip. It was asked to come about a month or a month and a half before the trip. Who was I to decline? I mean who would decline an offer like that?! My dream of going to Disneyland came true and it was SURREAL! I just didn’t show it much but I almost cried. That’s how happy I was! I was supposed to be there years ago but it didn’t happen so when it finally did, it was overwhelming! March was so good to me.

FIRST TIME EVER!!!!!

I passed CPTE entrance exam and I go to school every Saturday. I am so happy with where I am right now and with my work. But I need to chase my dreams. Even just for a fallback. I enjoy school so much. It brings back memories and it gives me new friends.

It was my first time in Cebu. And it was because of work. I can't post pictures of the event but I can post photos of when we visited churches.

I know, I know. July isn’t part of the first half of the year, but just recently, I went to Hong Kong again. God’s gift this year just keeps on pouring on me.

AND A HUG FROM MICKEY!!!!

Besides the fact that I want to share my experiences this year to the readers (if there are), I would also want to say that life is full of trials. Fate would storm you with it. But with enough courage, prayers and help from your loved ones, you could face them easily and with grace. The latter part of my 2014 was a disaster – work wise. And a part of my 2015 was shaky, too. I think I needed to experience those for me to appreciate life even more. One can’t really be happy all throughout his/her lifetime. Bumps will come our way but we’ll get by eventually.
