HAVE SOME DADA MUNA
The months of the last quarter of the year 2008 were all witnesses of how I was driven by this madness called negativity. I even got to the point where I thought to myself that success is only driven by fear. You fear things to happen and so here you are, doing things at your best stance to prevent anything you don't want to happen to get into the realms of reality. But here I am right now beaming with so much happiness to tell you guys that from negative zone I went all the way through the zero line and now I'm here still going up to the very heart of positivity.


ETO NA!
I know that this won't be possible without the help of some dear friends and the persons who all came my way that brought so much difference to my life now. And now, I wanna share you this night that I really believe closed the nega chapter of my book.

ETO NA TALAGA!!
It was December 12, 2008, Friday night.
Normally when it's Friday and the class is done, I am in a rush. I always wanted to go home already since Saturday classes pave way to a murderous 8 am class start. But that night was different from the others. I stayed and even ate dinner with Anna at the Car park. It was already 7:30 that time as I remember but still I stayed and even sat down inside the AB pav. I promised myself that when the clock strikes 8 I have to bid goodbye but seconds after that pact, Anna and I saw Maggie, Patty and Auds coming out of the AB Building. Of course, they made my pact a bit harder to be taken seriously and little did I know that I was already walking with them towards McDonalds due to Aud's request and even agreed with Maggie to drink. But it seemed like it was only me and Maggie who really wanted to drink. So the plan was aborted, haha.


ETONG ETO NA!!!
After that Mcdo dinner they had, my promise to myself to go home already went away together with the food they ate and got digested inside them. We even went to the field and that's where I got this news that boomed the night even more! Jeseli said that Glenda's with Ms. G and Andro at Tapsi. Then I read Glenda's message telling me that she has this surprise for me but Jeseli the spoiler got me first and so I already knew the surprise. Of course, it's all about Ms. G and Glenda knows how I love this professor.


ETO NA, HAHA. SWEAR!
So I guess this was the real reason why God didn't allow me to go home early. He prepared these creatures that night and be great instruments to bring some positive difference to my life. I really got thrilled by the idea that Maggie and I's idea to drink would become possible and more to that Ms. G would be with us, too. Waaah. Sitting around the table was me, Ms. Guevara, Glenda, Maggie and Andro and later came Carmela and Poch. Ms. G really is a rockstar!! I really learned a lot of things from her that night. Listening to her was heaven and is still heaven. Since I was really bugged by this lost drama I had then, I couldn't help but share. Her words tapped my shoulders, really. I even cried! See, that's how affected I was by that nega problem I had then. Ms. G. told me that I should not be afraid. Part of being lost is not giving the whole you to the things you do. There's this holding back that eats you and pushing you away from the path you should take. THROW YOURSELF TO THE UNIVERSE AND THE UNIVERSE WILL CATCH YOU, she said. And I got so deeply moved by it and so tears came out my eyes. She even assured me that I'm not a quitter after sharing a plan.


SHUCKS
But that night wasn't just all about me. Ms. Nerissa Guevara cried too!! Until now, I'm still affected by this story of hers that she shared with us. It just made my admiration for her stronger and purer! I just really can't believe that something like that had happened to her! She must be really strong for standing still and having such a wonderful attitude towards life! And I really appreciate the trust that Ms. G. has given us! She even shared with us a glimpse of her love life! And again.. for the nth time.. she did it again.. she amazed me. That guy really is sooo lucky. Hmm. We will pary for your lovelife Ms. G! And I definitely agree with her statement that ART IS THE CLOSEST PLACE TO HEAVEN. So we must follow our hearts because by that alone, we already do some art!

THE GRIPO
After that night, the faucet has started to keep on flowing with positivity. I really learned a lot from her. Honestly, i couldn't tell here all the details due to two reasons. Human's memory is fragile. Secondly, memories of that night are too good to be imagined not to be written. All I know is that came after that night is the first product if these heaven sent realizations, awakening and sorts.. the Jingle fest!

THANKYOUS
It's possible right? To have a person who you don't know all your life to change your track through words. Words are really powerful. And words from a person full of sense do count! Here are my thankyous for the people who keep me going this college phase.

MS. G, thank you for I now have an idol who I can see regularly and talk to and with for times and be proud to say that even just for a night, I was able to see her cry, hear advices from her, laugh with her, drink some beer with her, have FUN with her and feel so high!! You are an inspiration. You're story is safe with us. I admire you even MORE for that! Isa po kayo sa mga musa ko. Musa; those that truly inspire me to pursue the callings of my heart.

GLENDA, you never know how much you mean to me! Just like what Ms. G told her friend.. IT'S THE ARTIST IN YOU THAT BRINGS THE ARTIST IN ME. I admire you for so many reasons! You inspire me to continue my craft though at times, I put my faith in myself six feet under! Always believe in yourself because I don't want to have an idol who doesn't believe in herself. Did I just tell you that you're one of the persons who I look up to? Swear. I am really looking forward to this day when all our lives revolve just around our happiness-- OUR FAMILY, FRIENDS, IMPT. ISSUES TO KEEP US GROUNDED AND OF COURSE, OUR CRAFT. :)

Anna! You're the reason why I cried one crazy night in Plaza Calderon. I was so busy then polishing the doublemint ad jingle with Chad when you sent me this tear jerker message. It made me more confident! I OWE YOU A LOT. I am so lucky to have known such a wonderful and talented dancer that you are. You keep me going! You're so positive and I happily blame you for having me joined the band of positivity! I can't wait to see you as the next T. Jeorcelle. It's not far from possible. I believe in you.

GGALS, you all make UST such a heaven. I am always grateful to have known wonderful persons like you. You are my sisters!!!!!!!!!!! Tatanda na tayo together!! :)

TO EVERYONE, thanks for shining on me! Just continue on shining on me dear sunshinesss. Stay in love!
