Archives for 2011

Today is the last day of the year 2011 and I am very thankful for whatever happened to us, may it be good or bad, this made us a better person. I spent Christmas in Quirino Province and there I learned so much things. I learned that not having what I wanted makes me lucky because if I do, I’ll grow up irresponsible. My cousins and I are very lucky for experiencing things that rich kids can’t. We make an effort for what we want, we have to work for it and if it’s not for us, we let it be.

I am not sure if my younger cousins knew this but I want them to know that being rich won’t do anything good to all of us. Maybe it can give us a luxurious life but it may change our attitude towards other people and spend more than on what we need. I want a car but I don’t think I will buy myself one because I don’t know how to drive and I am too lazy to learn the basics of driving. I want our own big house but I don’t think it will come true in the near future for I don’t have any regular income.

By the way I see other people spend too much money, I don’t think I want to be rich too. I am already happy and contented with a super big family even if we have no money. I wanted to be super rich but it doesn’t have to be true. I am already happy dreaming.

We traveled for eight hours going to Lloyd’s grandmother’s house to celebrate her 75th birthday and Christmas. The trip went well because we are all comfortable and with the view we see, I can say that I am very fortunate to see the beauty of nature. I fell in love with Ambuklao Road the first time I see it. We’ve been traveling for eight hours in a zigzag road but mountains, river and fresh air made forgot the road.

Upon arriving at the place, the very first thing I do is to look for internet connection to check my e-mails. No signal can be detected at the house so I decided to check e-mails  at a computer shop the next day. The internet connection disappointed me because it was very slow. I can’t even read eyelash growth products reviews because the sites are loading very slow. Maybe I should not expect since we are in the province.

Our stay went well and I am very nervous meeting his relatives so I can’t help but stay in the room most of the time. All of them were very good in singing. I felt jealous for everyone in their family has golden voice.
