story of a girl

Gosh!, I have been like a crazy bunny for the past days. My parents are out of the country for a week now and manning the house, “taking care” of my siblings while juggling time with my work and the other stuff I have in my hands are driving me nuts. But it’s me who never says no to anything so the blame’s all mine…

I am starting to get busy again since the 2^nd semester has started and except for the tiny glitch in my grades that the grad school office has to fix for me, everything’s looking pretty good. I enrolled for Advertising and Promotions Management under ABS-CBN VP for Corporate Communications Bong Osorio, so that’s something I’m really happy and excited about.

Last week was a shift from the depressing and down mood I’ve been wearing days before it. I was able to go out and see some friends and felt like everything was back to where it should be.

We celebrated the birthday of one of my best girlfriends (Happy Birthday Kulot!) last Thursday over dinner at Cyma and a saw a nice movie afterwards. The Women was a feel-good story of four friends who even at their not-so-young ages were still together through thick and thin. And when one of them had to undergo the “when all hell breaks loose” episode of a cheating husband and a nearly collapsing family, the rest were present to help in their own (even stupid) ways despite having their own share of big problems.

It was a witty and realistic plot that not only showed that there are actually better things that come out of problems that we initially thought we couldn’t handle but it also celebrated the beauty of the kind of friendship that only our most loved and trusted girlfriends could provide. I love the part when Annette Benning and Meg Ryan made up after a fight and one of them said “Let’s be wives of each other.” It was just so touching and true for someone like me who has the best girlfriends in the worldJ.

So there, despite the busyness going on, I have been feeling really peaceful now, no more of the depressing thoughts that hounded me weeks ago. All I needed really was to get back in touch with my senses and gather all the positive vibes I can get from doing the things and loving the people that make me happy.

Christmas Alert! 37 days before the big holiday!
