525,600 MINUTES

this all too familiar lyric to the very famous song "seasons of love" from the musical "rent" plays in my head.

yes, it has been already a year of kilig and happy moments.  sometimes, moments so happy that you just think you could implode and leave traces of yourself everywhere.  yet, just like every package, the positives must be peppered with challenges...such as the commitment of finishing things, hanging on and doing stuff even if you dont want to, the peaks and valleys of successes and failures.  things that make me thankful to be alive and make me learn more about myself and people close to me.

but all in all, it is worth it.

too fast, i tell you.

sometimes, i just wish i had bottomless supply of brake fluid so that i could put a stop to time.  so that i could have time to look around, laugh a bit more, or appreciate moments which i didn't know would become rarities in the future.  at other times, i wish i had a time machine so that i could fast forward to the future and be where i think i want to be.

oddly though, when you get to the place where you thought in the past you want to be, it rarely ends up being what you imagine it to be.

so i find myself reflecting on what has been.

in the middle of all the funny-ness of the santol seeds, sucking it up, and prunification, the past 525,600 minutes have all been good. :)

  2. keep it simple. sounds like a tagline. i like it. therefore, yan na ang first shout outs of all shout outs ko in a long time. ang malungkot lang sa mga plano, as much as we try to be in a vacuum and plan these things based on ourselves, more often than not, other people come into play. and that is the tricky part.
