I've been crazy busy for the past few weeks that I really didn't get the chance to blog. So before my life next week gets crazier with my 12-hour shift from Tuesday to Friday, I'll definitely fill you in with the missing details of my life.
What will seem to be the most surprising is Al's sudden decision to stop working in APS in a time when it's almost Christmas and a time when we're juggling our budget here and there. EVEN BEFORE that, there was this one incident that literally knocked me off my feet. His STUPID friend used up my remaining funds in my savings account and used my ATM card as if it's his!! AND until now, he hasn't paid us back yet. What a real ass hole, and yet Al still considers him as his friend. WTF. In an effort to make him pay us back, another unworthy and unfortunate incident happened which probably triggered Al to finally leave work. I don't know if its even a good idea to bring this up again because I considered myself to have moved on. I don't know. I honestly thought that he's sort of having this "quarter life crisis" where (I think) he reached his exaggeration point. He's home without work for 2 weeks. I decided to just give him the break he needs. After all, he's been working for more than 4 years now.
Tomorrow, he will start applying for a new job. What happened may really be a pain in the ass and I'm just lucky I have a strong heart literally and emotionally. It was tough and I didn't know where to grab the strength I need if I still have some left. But God is good. I'm very blessed with a positive attitude with the "I CAN DO THIS!" mantra I have. The hardest part probably was trying hard to smile when in truth, I'm dying inside. But I'd like to believe that it's already over. We've talked about it a lot of times and I knew he was sorry. I believe him and I believe his reasons. We've moved on and we're starting anew. It's just about time to put things into action. It's not gonna be easy. But who said life's easy anyway? Despite everything, here we are, still facing life with a smile. =)
My Reiko never fails to remind me how beautiful life is despite the challenges. Because of him, I know I have a purpose and life's worth living.
To add to that, my family never fails to remind me that I'm never alone.
And my friends who make me feel that hey, I still have a life outside home and work. Haha! :D My bestfriend Beans, my superfriends Gold and Joan last Friday waited for me while I was at work so we could get together after almost 2 years! Happy 23rd birthday to me! =)
Now, what more can I ask for?
