I have been nothing but busy these past few weeks. Too busy in fact, that the stress has affected my whole being. I got sick and I wasn't able to take care of my body because I couldn't let the stress get out of my system. I have accepted the fact that the stress won't leave me any time soon. It's a fact. I mean, it's almost crunch time for our thesis. I need my healthy self. And because I don't want to get any much worse than I already am, I have been feeding on skyflakes and soups all week. And I intend to continue this diet until I am fully well. I have absented myself from duty last Monday, and I know it means make-up duty, but it is better to have make-up duty than to aggravate my condition. For the first time, I felt like I did something right (regarding my health). I have been known for hating make-up duty and wasting time, but this time, I wasn't wasting time, this time, I was concerned about my well-being. I hate being the patient. That's the weird part about being sick, I know most of the interventions, yet whenever I'm in pain, I want my Mom to be here. With her by my side, I feel like things are going to be much better. So much for me being a 'young adult'. Haha. I still desperately need my parents.
On a happier note, Papa celebrated his 51st birthday with a big birthday dinner with our family. We had dinner last Saturday (August 4th - his actual birthday) at Heat in Edsa Shang. I have always loved Heat. And am still loving it. I think it's partly the reason why I got sick in the first place. I think I ate too much. Ohwell. It was a sort of dramatic night. We all had birthday messages for Papa, and I cried while I was saying mine. I have always been close to both my Mama and my Papa, and some think that Papa has always spoiled me, but he doesn't spoil me that much naman, I mean normal lang naman eh. And I needed to thank Papa for everything. As in everything. I mean he and Mama have always given me more than what I wanted. More of si Papa, cos Mama doesn't want to spoil us at all. And if it weren't for my Papa, I wouldn't have been enrolled in UST. I would have followed my dream and come next year, I would not know what I would want to do with my life. Because of him, I have direction. Thanks Papa. I love you!
Any blog entry of mine wouldn't be complete without Andy news. :) He won last week in the Legg Mason Classic Tourney in DC. I don't know who he beat since I wasn't able to watch it, but I'm so proud of him. He also won his match yesterday in the 2nd round of the Rogers Cup in Montreal, Canada, beating Arnaud Clement. He's booked himself a seat into the 3rd round. Yipee! My sister was able to watch, but I slept early last night eh. See! I'm still updated even if I'm crazy busy with school.
By the way, before I forget, we had our Grad pictures taken last Tuesday. Yes, I was still sick then (still am now), but I hope I managed to get good pictures. I hope I hope :) I would post the pictures as soon as I get hold of them :) Check out my multiply nalang for the pictures, if you want.
Back to school na naman tomorrow. I just realized, I haven't gone to school in almost a week. Darn I hope I get better na. Was absent once lang naman eh, luck was just on my side the past couple of days :)
God bless everyone :)
