So I’m back! I haven’t blogged for over a year. And now I am back! I want to write more about my experience for the past year. I have been away from home last year and spent almost half my year in sunny California. This year, I am currently vacationing in Singapore and it has been a blast as well. I will try to write as much as I can. Ta ta! 🙂

I found Nemo.
Our nephew, Luis, is an addict of Fishville (a Facebook application), and he was really into sea creatures when he was younger. Oh he’s 7 now! Anyway, Jp decided to set up an aquarium for Luis.
The question now is, what kind of fish does he want. So we went fish hunting. Fresh water or salt water fishes. That was the question. It still is a hard choice for Luis up until now.
The thing is I was surprised to have found Nemo being sold for less than 100pesos. He’s not supposed to be there. He’s supposed to be swimming in the ocean.:(
I once tried scuba diving in Saipan, (with supervision, of course) I was overflowing with joy when I got the chance to see the some Clown Fish in the ocean, it was like an achievement! Then seeing those baby clown fish being sold, I felt sadness in my heart. They should not be sold. Someone should be looking after their welfare.
We still haven’t got an aquarium, fyi. I don’t wanna buy Nemo’s relatives though. I wish people don’t just take those baby fishes away from their home.
My 28th.
I just turned a year older last Monday and I said to myself that i am ready to make this year a productive one for me. I turned 28. A number that i feared when i was 10 years younger. I remembered thinking to myself way back then of how unpleasant that must have been to become that old. Haha! 10years fast forward here i am, not feeling quite old and thinking to myself that age is nothing but just a number.
The big 3* on the other hand is scarier. It is scary because time flies really fast. Although I think it wouldn’t be as scary as I think it would have been if by then I have accomplished my plans.
A wiser version of me, more loving, less naive, more considerate, less stubborn = (for short) a better ME (I’d like to think so, of course). That is who I have become after 28 years of searching myself. I still haven’t figured out where I should be but I know what my goals are, and I know I still have to search more to find who I really am. I think I have enough patience to last for a couple of years though. So that’s a good thing!
For now I am happy and satisfied with who I am, I know my strengths and weaknesses, I know where I want to go and know where I shouldn’t. I know what and who makes me happy and vice versa. Most importantly, I know something really big is waiting for me and I know the Lord has laid out his master plan for ME.
