Dear college self,

How are you? I'd like to thank you for everything you have done, everything you have sacrificed, and for enduring all of it to bring me to where I am now. I hope you're not too hard on yourself. You might have some pain, heartache, and you might have done a lot of things wrong but don't be to hard on yourself. You know you're not perfect and you know you can still do better.

I'd like to tell you that in my time, things are going great. I've been able to achieve some little things and I'm starting to make those dreams you had come true. Right now, I'm typing this thing on a 13-inch macbook air that you would have never thought you would own. This year, I've been buying a lot of stuff that I think I don't deserve but I know you do. I owe it all to you.

You've had so much to endure in your time. You had to deal with the pressure of being the eldest, the pressure of having failing grades, and all that crap. I hope you should know that things are going to get better. Everything I am now is because of you. Thank you!

Along the way, never forget about your family, friends, the people you work with and the people you meet. They will have a great impact on your life. Keep dreaming and stay humble. Trust in God and He will you lead you here.

For a special someone

 Hi,     I know I have been the worst this past year. I know you haven't felt the same way since the pandemic hit and so did I. I thought that giving you space and waiting for you to come around was the right thing for us. I thought that you would become more independent and that you would learn that you are very strong and you can do anything. I thought that giving you the space will help you go back to being with your friends and enjoying your life without me. Most especially, I thought that when you had time to let yourself free a little, I would just be here waiting for you with all the things that you've learned by yourself and having to experience a new you.     I, too, had plans to change over that time. I wanted to enjoy being with my family and experience how it's like to live with them for a longer period of time. We were never in the same house for so long and I wanted to savor that time before I lived away from them. I wanted to make sure they were l...

"Sana all" may not be good at all

       I woke up this morning asking myself, "why are people not contented with what they have?" Why do we always find something we don't have and try to force ourselves that we should have that? In an era full content, why is there so much discontent?      I realized that the phrase "sana all" is a big part of this. We often see this phrase in comments on social media where everyone shares "the good stuff". We see a couple's nice photo and the first comment is "sana all". We see a woman in a bikini on the beach with the caption, "sunkissed", "beach please", or "vitamin sea", and the first comment is "sana all". We see a person's photo in a foreign country with a historical land mark and the first comment is "sana all".       I get it. It's supposed to make the person in the photo feel good about themselves. However, does the person saying it feel any better? "Sana all" i...

MMX

Hello guys! it's themovingAUNNE again! but today's post isn't about a new place I've been to but a new experience for me. August 13 -14 was Cookout MMX  and for me, it was a really nostalgic new experience. Nostalgic because I felt like I went back to becoming a freshman. I never told you that freshman year in college, I joined the sayawan competition and ever since then, I never joined a cookout competion- not until yesterday. yesterday, I joined three different segments in cookout. First, I joined the kantahan segment where I met new friends and found confidence in myself. kantahan was my favorite part of the night because I was amazed on how my supported me and cheered me on. I really appreciated how they let their voices loose just to scream my name. I found friends that I know would be there for me to support me. thank you guys.  the second segment was the rampahan segment. I wasn't so into it though because I got tired since it was already almost 3:00 when ...
