    Tadaaa! Happy 20th Birthday, self! (woot, can't accept lol) Well I still believe I'm on my teenage year - twenTEEN :P Another year has come for me and I'm grateful for that. So many ups and downs happened for the past years and I can't believe I surpassed them all. For a while I would like to remember how awesome and awkward my 19 years of existence had been. It was a roller coaster ride; mixed emotions of laughter, tears and everything in between. 

    On a serious note as I turned 20 today, I feel a bit scared because I think I'm now an adult. The pressure and responsibilities were really in. I know that all of us doesn't want to leave our teenage years in order to enjoy what we want or as the song says "Live while we're young". But now I would like to welcome this chapter of a not-so-adult-but-not-so-young phase in my life. I can't wait to experience it with a new perspective. I am excited to do things on my own, explore, discover, meet new people and of course learn. I don't want to adult yet, but I am open to experience life in my 20s!


    With that said, I want to share with you some of the things that I want to do/accomplish in my 20s. Hope you can also relate and learn a thing or two from me :) Enjoy reading!

    1. Graduate on 2018. 3 more semesters to go! I can do this! :)
    2. Complete my name with these three letters: C P A . In God's perfect timing.
    3. Continue my passion for blogging. Despite of hectic school works, this never goes out of my priority.
    4. Build a self confidence. #1 rule: BELIEVE IN MYSELF.
    5. Save. Becayse not all the time my parents has to support me, in my simple way of saving I know it can help.
    6. Travel. Around the Philippines and the world! 
    7. Have my own clothing line. Sounds cliché, but since then I want to have this #bloggerproblems
    8. Learn how to bake.(Though late hahaha) One reason: My love for desserts/sweets.
    9. Learn how to drive. But first have a car hahaha! But seriously I want to learn :)
    10. Try different cuisines. Even I'm very choosy when it comes to food, I'm open to try this. It may be Japanese, Korean, Chinese, etc.
    11. Get back into sport. I really like playing badminton but I don't play that much this time because of school. Hope to spend my leisure time with this.


    I'll just enjoy enjoy every moment that life will offer to me. Continue to move forward and keep going no matter what happens. "Life is hard and it will get harder, but you are strong and you will be stronger."

    As a special request from my best friend, Jaymarie Catigan, I write a blog post about her. I mean about us. Because it's her special day right now. Happy Birthday girl! 

    I will give a brief summary on how our friendship started. Way back 2008, it was our freshman year in high school when we became classmates but that time we're not yet close friends. The only memory on that year is when I am her monita on our christmas party (yes I still remember that!). On our sophomore year, it's the time when the friendship is built among us and we had our barkada group. Then everything goes along the way until our senior year. High school memories will always be the best! College days, we have separated because of our school choice but it's not the reason to end what we have back then. We always make sure that we hang out during our free time buy during busy days, social media got our back! And that's a quick throwback on how it all started. So here I made a list why she is my best friend - FOREVER <3


    1. She know how to listen. It may sound like a simple task but no one gets attentive as her. Whenever I need someone to talk to, she's always there for me.

    2. I trust her with all my secrets and she trust me with all of hers. She knows everything about me. I never hesitate to tell her something because I know she will keep it with herself. We will not let ourselves bring us down - our history runs way too deep.
    3. We can make fun of each other and never take offense. Remember those embarrassing moments together? ( not to mention pls. lol!) Plus the inside jokes!

    4. She always got my back. Whatever happens, she will be there and so I am to her.
    5. She bring out my goofy side. We can talk to each other in our own language and take the most ridiculous photos of one another, just for fun - Snapchat! 

    6. She know how to cheer me up when I'm down. She's just one call/text/chat away to comfort me all the time. Somehow she always know what to do and I'm forever grateful with that.
    7. She can get me out of a seriously bad mood. I don't know how she do it, but she always give that radiating happy energy which never fails to make me feel better.

    8. My travel/adventure buddy. When we hang out for days and never get sick of each other and each day would be like an awesome new adventure. Thank you for always going with me on Bloggers United! When we haven't seen each other for a while, it's as if we never separated.
    9. Jealousy is never felt on our friendship. We've been very supportive for each other and always up to celebrate our successes. It's okay to gain more friends but NO ONE can replace her :)

    10. We used eye contact to communicate. It depends on the situation, lol. I just giver her "that look' and she know what exactly I'm thinking. You know it girl, hahahaha!
    11. I trust her gut instincts sometimes more than my own. I always ask her first what to do before taking action. Your gut speaks in gold, sometimes. Hahahaha

    12. My number one fan/supporter. She always believe in me especially on my blogging career. Thank you for being the best cheerleader! On the path she's into, I'm always here support her. 
    And there you have it, the 12 reasons why she is my best friend. This is probably the longest blog post I've ever done. Yaaaay! My birthday message sent to her already. Hope you like this little gift of mine. xo
