sit. breathe. write.

i just can't spell out what my mood is at this very moment. i'm positive that i want to write, yet i'm really not sure what to write about.

let me get this straight: reading the entry preceding this made my heart sink a little. it's just like knowing that the person you love is happy, but at the same time you're sad because you're not there to celebrate the happiness with him.

i'm very much aware how far saudi arabia is from the philippines. spotting the two countries in the world map alone wouldn't do it justice. it's just that far. however, knowing that he's happy is great. for now, i think i'll settle with that idea. :)

i just realized that it is really important to keep a library of great memories with your loved ones - tangible, intangible, in paper or in blogs - for they will be your source of strength when you are apart. it works for me. the pictures, the writeups, the words... they never lie.

i love to plan. parties, surprises, name it. i can properly plan and execute them. my heart just keeps on pumping harder whenever i think of something new to do when i go back home. of course we'll do the usual coffee sipping, cheesecake munching, book hunting, and lots of walking... but how about a new habit?

aha. it's just now that i realized we're actually doing a new habit... blogging! and we actually share this blog. i just wanted us to do something really, really fun while we're away, and build our memory library even if we're not physically with each other.
