Three islands we visited. Three beaches I didn’t pass up on snorkeling. I may not Have worn by glasses, but the picture was more than awe-inducing to a near-sighted girl wearing goggles. And the fish! Nothing like I’ve seen. The corals were vibrant and full of life. 

It’s simply just the best day ever.

                On the trip back home I was sullen, as I didn’t want to leave. I was pouty and would complain. I wanted to stay there. Then I figured if I stayed there the magic will fade away. It was better to leave now, and appreciate the time we spent there, than stay and watch the filter fade away. 

I promise though, I will come back.

 

July 30, 2015 marked my first encounter with them. Excited, nervous, and hungry were feelings I felt as we were approaching Mall of Asia Arena. There were super long lines, it took hours to get to our seats but I could not feel anything as I sat there and saw the stage. I was seated on the upper box level, right side of the stage, first row. Feelings were mixed in my stomach, I got quite mad because people who bought standing room only tickets were beside me in the stairs, it was really unfair but I did not want to ruin my night because of them. I have been waiting for BIGBANG, a five-membered boy group, for almost 5 years. They had past concerts done in Manila already but this is the first time I’m attending. It felt nerve-wracking but I loved the moment, I could never forget it.

GOT7’s 1st Fanmeeting in Manila on November 14, 2015 and EXO’s concert, EXOluxion in Manila last January 23, 2016 were also some of the events I attended that I consider my happiest days. Being in love with these Korean groups and bands take a huge part in my life and I guess it would be a part of me until the day that I die.

A LONG LASTING JOURNEY

                The happiest day of my life was the very day that I entered college at the University of Santo Tomas. I gained a lot of friends that I didn’t expect I would have. They became the reason why I wake up and go to school every day. They became my happy pill, they make me laugh all the time, most especially in my darkest days. We hang out a lot, we travel most times. I learned a lot when I got here. I learn the culture of the University. I discover many places to eat around UST, and also around Manila. 

                I also got to go to places I wanted to go when I entered college. Everything is the happiest moment when I reach college. I get to hang out with my friends until the day ends. I get to do things I couldn’t do when I was in high school but I do it only up to some extent because I still know my limitations and responsibilities as a student. 

                When I reach 3^rd year college everything changed, Our Circle of friends became so much closer to the extent that everything we do is so much memorable. We are like family because I consider them one. Who would’ve thought that we are inseparable, we created a bond that no one can take away with that it made me the happiest man alive.
