IT'S COMING TO AN END

Tell me how I'll say goodbye.

It's been four years- four long, fun and exciting years that will stay with me for the rest of my life.

Just the thought of leaving makes me cry.

Because it's really hard to leave when all the good things are here.

When all the happy days lead you back to your second home.

Masyado pa akong masaya, nakakatakot umalis kasi baka malungkot na.

In the four years I had...

Let me remember the smiles that made my day.

The hugs that lightened my mood and the crazy jokes that sent me laughing out loud.

Let me recall the funniest moments that had me rolling on the floor.

Now I can say I am happy.

Let me remember the subjects I enjoyed.

The teachers I loved, and those I those I love to hate

The classes I struggled with, and the classes I never miss.

Now I can say I have learned.

Let me remember our sweet victories as a block, as an org, as a group.

Let me recall the defeats that made us stronger.

Let me reminisce on the cases we lived through and survived as A block and as a batch.

Now I can say we are one.

Let me recall the late nights we shared.

The parties we rocked, the music we grooved to,

the movie dates and the spur of the moment stuff we did.

Now I can say I lived.

Let me retrace the roads we travelled,

the tracks we ran,

and the race we made.

Now I can say I gave my best.

Let me say thank you to the unexpected friends I made.

To the first friends I've kept, and to the new ones I treasure dearly.

Now I can say I am better.

Let the mushiness linger a little longer.

Let the music repeat itself.

For if I could, I'd extend the week a little more

and re-do all the things we enjoy together.

Let me hug you one more time.

Let me cry with you just this once.

For after this part, we go on with our lives.

We'll see each other soon, I bet.

But for now, I think I can,

I can say goodbye.

MY FRIENDS, BOTH OLD AND NEW MAKE IT HARD FOR ME TO LEAVE.

That sometimes I wish it would last a little longer. But it's all ending really soon. I can really say I have enjoyed my college life to the fullest. I may not leave with the highest awards, but I can say I had the best damn time of my life with my dearest friends and the best people in the world.

The biggest thank you to the people who became part of my college life. To my friends, my blockmates (Yooohooo group block A!), to my ABAM family, my JFA family, my AdCore circle,COMELEC families (under Kitch and Tim), my ABAM-HR loves, my Burger Macho and Oracle group, Ilocos Summer friends, my H&S, Wonder and Kruchy teams, my cassava queens and Stitch donyanesses, to my crushes, my teachers, to my road trip buddies, my late night McDo friends, my ka-inumans and ka-gimmicks back in junior year, my non-BA friends and rappel-mates.

IT'S BEEN AN AMAZING FOUR YEARS.

Thank you.

Cheers to togetherness, 'til God knows when.

Kaleidoscope World

It's not how long you live but how well you live your life.

I am not a big fan of rap music but I really look up to Francis Magalona as an artist (I like Mga Kababayan ko and Kaleidoscope world) and as a photographer. He's been an amazing family man (I've visited his multiply site a few times before his death) and he'd always showcase the works and accomplishment of his kids. Super nakaka awwww. And as an avid watcher of Filipino movies, I've seen him start in Bagets 2 and all the movies where he'd play sidekick roles to Vic Sotto.

Francis M. deserves all the love and prayers. 

He is one shouting proud Pinoy who has truly inspired this generation of Filipinos. His music will transcend and will continue to fuel nationalism through the years.

FRANCIS M., you will be missed.

It's a kaleidoscope world and we live in it.
