Fifth and Final one & My DEBUT ♥

Yes, that's right. ANOTHER NEW blogsite for the what... the nth time?  I've been blogging since I was the age of 13, just for the sake of it really but I never really got round to publishing it. I get those times where I linger around and go for a walk down the park or this lake nearby where I usually go to escape from reality and think " I could write about how beautiful and exquisite this place is!" I take a couple of photographs and never retrieving it again..

I have also enforced making more than one or two or three.. or four blogsites before. But it's either I imprudently forget my username or password or just simply having the urge of starting all over again.. just for the sake of it. haha! Wishful thinking, this should be my fifth and final one :)

Let me start you off with this blog I constructed after my 18th Birthday a month or so ago. It's just something I wrote to thank those lovely people who came to my party :)

Here it goes..

Hello everyone!

I know it's a little too late,  but it's better late than never! I never got a chance to thank each and every single one of you for the birthday messages on Saturday as well as for coming to my party on Sunday, my sched's been ballistic and I've been so busy with college work, so I didnt have time ! It was a delight and a great pleaure that everyone was there to celebrate it with me :) I enjoyed it very much, I hope you all did too!

I remember a week ago today was my actual birthday but it didnt feel like it till the Sunday! Lol Pressure and stress was in all quarters along with the bliss and the high spirit. Phonecalls, texts, visitors round, wall ost to wish me happy birthday. I remember telling my mum "Ma, andami pong nag wri-write at gregreet ng happy birthday sa wall ko, nakakatuwa!." and her replying "HA?! BAKIT SILA SUMUSULAT SA PADER?" It was the funiest thing ever! What a comedian :) Lol

That week before the debut, was the busiest in my whole 18 years of living! Lol Although, i've been contemplating about it since my 16th birthday thinking, it has to be better than my 16th! Yet, there was still a little one or two mistakes alongside of it. I remember even dreaming 2 days before my birthday that was I was still making invitations on my actually birthday! Oh funny times! My mum was the most stress amongst us all. She was like "Everyone's got their dresses already!" However, without her, I wouldnt have that awesome party. I swear, she was awake for the whole month thinking about it! Lol

The day of the party, I couldnt even visualize how busy we all were. Slept at 5am, woke up at 8, prepared my clothes, dashed to the venue at 11, fetched the baloons at 1, went home at 5, and got ready for an hour. AN HOUR! I manage to do my hair and make-up and clothes including my mum's hair and make up PLUS, ironing my brother's clothes in just an hour. I felt like a superhero :D Lol! Yet, I sill had time to check my facebook. ADIK! haha

 

                                                         

                                                         
                                                        
                                                        
                                                        
                                                         

Then that was it..
After 18 years of waiting..
DEBUT ko na yey! :)







11 years ago,  it was my cousin’s 18th birthday.. that was the first time I ever attended and witnessed an 18 birthday or a debut.  I remember, thinking to myself and asking my lola “Gusto ko po ng ganyan.. I want one of those one day.. do you think mum and dad will give me one?” she answered.. “If you do your homework.. if you get high grades.. if you eat a lot fruit and vegetables and if you’re a good girl.. sa awa ng diyos they will give it to you” So through the years I did my homework,  i got high grades, I ate a lot of vegetables.. but I wasn’t always the good daughter everyone expected me to be.
But I tried .. and here I am. They gave it to me.
As a little girl Ive always desired of having one of these. My mum said to me, I never got to experience this when I was your age, although I really wanted to. Therefore, I want you to experience it for me. Im the sort of person who is not 'girly-girly'. I grew up in Pangasinan, proud ILOCANA :) I wasnt that type of kid, who established a childhood living where I just stayed home playing with my dollhouse or barbies. I was more of -out and about, played 'patentero', Hide and seek late in the evening, climbed a 'bayabas' or 'mango' tree. Hence, Im that sort of girl who didnt like the colour pink, detest wearing skirts. Im a true 'Probinsyana' yet again, im proud to be. That's what made my childhood perfect.

                                                         
                                                             
                                                                
                                                           
                                                               
                                                            
                                                           

Life isn’t easy as we all know it, we go through a lot of happiness and excitement as well as a lot of barricade, hardship, problems and dilemmas, but thats just the way it goes and at the end of the day, basta mag tiwala ka lng sa diyos.. You’ll realise that you’ll get there. And here I am now.. I got here. 

An encore, I just wanted to say an excessive amount of thank you to my parents, for everything you have done, not only for that night but also over the years. Were always told as children that you don’t understand what your parents do for you until you stand on your own two feet and do it yourself. Now I understand. Thank you for always being there, as a friend and someone to talk to, and to make me my dinner when I come home from college. I wasnt the perfect daughter, but without a doubt they were the perfect parents. They were strict, YES VERY STRICT, but I wouldnt have it any other way. Now, I understand that decipline is a must! Lol. Forver will not be enough to say thank you to them, but if it takes me a lifetime, then I will try.
To 'Bro' - Lord, thank you po for absolutely EVERYTHING, you have always been there to guide me through life and for giving me all the blessings.
