things to be grateful for

1. the necessary reminder by Father Alejo during the retreat that there are a lot of things we ought to be thankful for.. the air, the sun, our body, the earth, and things and even persons that/who we usually take for granted just because they are ordinary, they are always there;

2. the results of the deliberations are out and some may not have made it, but things happen for a reason and discovering that reason is something to be grateful about. but most of the batch made it;

3. the results of 200s bar exams are out and a lot of UP baguio alumni's are now entitled to prefix their names with Atty. - congratulations syempre kay Sharry Salazar, Justin Mendoza, Benjamin Luis, Majelyn Oropilla, Jewelle Agudo, Bernadette Cornel (di ko na kilala ang iba, hehe);
P.S. tsari, ung promise mo na ipapamana mo sakin mga materials mo kasi abogado ka na e :) hehe. kidding aside, i'm so happy for you!!! mwah. i'll see you soon.

4. i may be delaying my review schedule because of an unexpected visit from my niece but the time is worth bonding with her because i know, one day when she's older and i'd tell her about the time before she turned a year old, she would most probably laugh her heart out :)

5. that the pressure is mounting and yet there is still a respite from it since there is always a time for everything. and now, i think it's my bedtime, since i'm not allowing myself to get to bed after midnight these days in view of my own bar exams this september.

so thank God for all the blessings and the pressures and trials as well :)

God bless us all and good night! :)
