a month of discovery and discernment...
it did not start good...
primarily because i have decided to let go of an unhealthy friendship...
after that incident, things have gone well for me... i have been introspecting (i guess, the experience was a wake-up call of sort for me)... and i even had a mini-survey among friends who knew me way back in high school, in college and even in elementary... the mini-survey somehow affirmed my self-perception...
a high school triplet perceived me as the ms. people-pleaser... another hs triplet told me this: hay naku, trip. what you are kasi is pranka. ever since. and the more na kilala mo ang tao, the more pranka you can get.
the people pleaser. the pranka. the tiger. and a lot more.
i am not boxing naman myself into these perceptions. and will never allow to be limited with certain parameters. i believe in darwin's theory of evolution. i will continuously evolve as long as i live. and part of the said evolution would be sticking with the values and principle i have hold on to all these years... and yeah, i will continuously appreciate friends to poke me when needed to.

so that's the melodramatic part.
hmmmm... what else...
every weekend this month, i have been quite "active". which is something i want to sustain.
the first weekend was fun (it was in fact welcoming summer officially in quezon), the following weekend started with a joey ayala gig followed by a photo shoot in diliman with high school batchmates and ended with a hike in lamesa eco-trail. then i had the laiya thing...
hmmm... i also was reunited with my elementary batchmates through facebook... and now we're planning a reunion in davao this year. haha!

i have discovered a lot of things about me... and a number of stuff about other people...

basta... i am happy at the moment, and i don't think i have to rationalize the happiness i am feeling right now.
