Thank you. Yes, you.

Year 2012 has passed by so quickly. I remember myself trying to count the months, days left some time ago. I was not in haste, but I could just be too excited to go jumping on New Year’s Eve wishing for a few more impossible centimeters.

The sole purpose of this post is really to acknowledge the people who have left an indelible mark in me for the past year (and even years back)because I never had the chance to do it personally. I will never be me without all of you. (This could get a little too mushy. Yea)

To my former officemates/friends in PPPI: For making my first job experience worth reminiscing, for the simple joys even during our busiest days, for all the lessons learned and relationships built, I thank you. It was a year well spent with all of you (karaoke nights, heart-to-heart talks at MTS, overtime, revelations, friendships, opening my eyes to the real world, that basketball game, stress, overeating, acceptance of our different personalities, serious and professional moments, etc

To you who accompanied me to MV LOGOS Hope in Cebu: Thank you, I learned a lot from you-how relationships become real and bogus-you made me realize things

To you who never had the courage to… : thank you for keeping my hopes high

To you who won a tiny Taz stuffed toy for me through shooting balls: I never thought I’d meet a very good man like you at a very odd place. You still made friends w/ me after knowing how rude I was/am (I am really sorry for that), made me laugh really freaking hard every freaking moment possible, I will forever treasure our friendship

To the few friends I met in USEP: I never would have gotten through the 1^st semester without you. I miss sleeping in class with you. Haha! Thank you!

To you who gave me an old pink bracelet and that bouquet of flowers on Xmas eve: I know our friendship will never end, we may or may not meet again in the future, but you’ll always have that tiny space in me. I thank you a lot for whatever it is that we had

 "we keep blaming it on circumstance..." Night Drops - UDD

To my high school/uni-intestined friends: I will forever love you all my life, you know who you are, besh…ets. That night spent with you on the first day of 2012 meant a lot to me, my forever most genuine friends

To my college family, my 2^nd family: we’ve shared our ups and downs for more than 4 freaking years which made the relationship even stronger. Minsan lang tayo makumpleto, and I’ve no idea when we’ll ever hangout complete again, but I still love you all to bits and pieces

To the TIGIs (Kah, Raissa, Arel, and Jean) where I’ve managed to squeeze myself in:  we only hangout rarely but still we find time even in ‘your’ busy schedules (hehe), thank you for the friendship, I’ve always loved our company

To the two lovely ladies who never hesitate to do crazy things with me and still manage to pull themselves together (without me haha), Ilai and Jamz: we may have the most complicated friendship ever, but who the hell cares? I still love you. And thank you for just being you

 
 To my best friend, Kariza, who hates me for calling her with her real name and prefers to be called Krissie instead or ‘Langga’ most of the time: I can’t thank you enough for everything. You’ve accepted me for who I really am. You know when and when not to talk to me which I truly value a lot being aware how bipolar-esque I am.  You always know how my mood swings are to be handled, the introvert and extrovert (?) in me. I can even say that you know me more than I know myself. I thank you for not leaving me, ever, even when you were on review for your board exams, you still made me feel that you never went away when we were really miles apart. You know how I never became a perfect best friend to you, I was like your exact opposite. I may even be the worst, but you stayed by my side. You’re my strength, my sister from another mother, my other mother, my partner in crime. I love you and you know that

Ps. You’re getting meaner, engineer, more like me, but nah, I still love you to death

To my dearest family: I thank you and I love you so much every day, all the days of my life. Enough said

To the Supreme Being: I thank you big time

To music: Thank you for the company all throughout the year

To myself: we will have a lot to talk about later
