MY 2013 SPEECH

I don't know how to start this speech really. I don't even have plans like my 2012's. I have even thought of not making this now and just make this sometime next year. But hey, time has presented itself to me. So I should not waste it. TIME is GOLD. LOVE is ETERNITY. Hmm. This will just be spontaneous. Whatever thoughts that will come out of my mind, so be it. :)


JANUARY
  • To Ron - Thanks for the birthday treat at Seafoods Island Northshore Grill. One of the best moments with ECE 13. As I can see in our pictures, we are all so happy. So yeah. Happy happy. Hopefully, on your next birthday treat, we are still happy like what we felt that time. :)
  • To Drei - Thank you for the chance that I met your dad and siblings and the rest of your family on your dad's side. Thanks for the new orlean's cafe after. Sorry about my gift though. But I know you like it. I hope so. Thanks too for your birthday gift to me. :)
  • To Naden - Thank you for the pack of yema gift! You're the first who gave me a gift for my birthday! :)

  • To all JIECEP-SMS members who attended the summit at UIC bonifacio - Thank you for singing me a happy birthday song. :)

  • Thank you Sir Marloue for constantly and patiently checking our thesis works and for teaching us how to become businessmen/women. :)
  • To my SEA women's basketball teammates and Coach Freddie Roach - I never thought that first practice would mean so much to me. I just went for that practice thinking that it would be my last and even used my favorite socks and cyclings. But hey, no lasts I think. Instead, that practice was the beginning of a stronger bond that, what i can see, is forming into a family-like bond now. :)

  • To Niknik - Thank you for sending me that cute Sister Song from Barney. I really didn't know that song all my life. It was just you who introduced it to me. You really are a kid. Hihi.

So full of fix. Haha. I think you are Fix-It Felix. And I am Wreck-It Ralph? Hahaha! Thank you for the love, care, concern and support. Thank you for being so thoughtful about my knee, for being a sweet younger sister to me (though sometimes naughty. haha), and for making me believe in my dreams again.

I have never expected that I will find solace in a kid like you. Thank you for the happy pills. Thank you for the Happy Lemons. Thank you for the little notes. Thank you for every little thing you have given me including the 6k churbaloo. Haha! Thank you for calling me Ache. Thank you for the happiness. Thank you for breaking my big strong walls.

DECEMBER
  • ECE 13!!! Thank you for participating on our annual exchange gift giving! Thank you that we all gave somethings even though we leveled up to 500 pesos or more. Thank you that despite of our busy schedules and no money and no proper venue, we were still able to celebrate this annual tradition. :)
  • To my basketball teammates and coach purr (again) - best practices here at our subdivision I can say. Hihi. Naaaaah. Just thank you for the bonding --- the stronger bonding that we have --- even stronger than before. Hihi. Just unfortunate that we fell short on our last game. Even I wanted to win it and I wanted that we will reach the championships. But yeah, life's like that. Let's just make sure that we "equal" this year what we have achieved last year. Go for the bronze! Hopefully, we can spend more time together even if the season has already finished. :)

Thank you Faith for the Timex watch. Thank you Niknik for the engineer teddy bear and for the numerous amount of letters. Thank you for making granny happy that longest night. :)
  • Thank you again Niknik and Faith and this time with Fiona for a invading our house and for the bowling part 2. Just sad that we haven't had the chance to go to the cinema but next time, there's always a next time. :)
  • To TRIPOD - for the unending support and love and understanding and words of encouragement, THANK YOU! I miss you both so much. I want to be in your arms now. Charlaloo noh? Hihi. But really, I am hoping to spend MORE time with you this 2014. I AM REALLY HOPING SO. :)

But I gotta say, the best part of my day is when I get thrown off the roof. Because when the Nicelanders lift me up, I get a perfect view of "Sugar Rush", and I can see Vanellope racing. The kid's a natural. And the players love her, glitch and all, just like I knew they would. TURNS OUT I DON'T NEED A MEDAL TO TELL ME I'M A GOOD GUY. BECAUSE IF THAT LITTLE KID LIKES ME, HOW BAD CAN I BE?
- Wreck-It Ralph
