Now, as I sit near the end of January's tail and hear February banging on the door, I try to recall the things I did to highlight the 1st month of the year. But like every other January of each year that came and went without notice, I realize there was nothing worth blabbing about. It was just another month of another year. It came and went like a blur. Maybe, that's because of my hazy memory. Maybe, because there really was nothing there.
The year and the month started with a mess. It was like a distasteful drama on bad television. Gah! I freakin' cried like a lunatic on New Year's eve because of some petty misunderstanding between my grandmother and my brother. Geeesh, people! And I thought all the while, I was the one with issues. Hmph!! Good grief, gramps just ruined everyone else's New Year's Eve. All the praises goes to Grandma!!
Good thing my brother easily forgets things like those easily. Otherwise, we would be grappling at the tension when they meet on every occasion or celebration we have to attend. Oh, the drama!!
So, what else..what else.. I developed, well, rekindled is more like it, with a not so new bad vice. The smell of nicotine is just too tempting to fore go. Besides, it's not like I've become a chain smoker or something. And oh, I finally let go of coffee when my coffee maker was broken because of the d.amn ants playing house inside the machine.
Hmm, I got a chance to get away from the city this month. I was so proud of my brother who drove all the way to the South of Cebu. Well, we did not go that far, just in San Fernando, but still, it was his first time. So, Hurray! to my brother, I'm a proud sister. We were able to reach our destination safely and came back home in one piece. I guess that would be high-freakin'-light of my month. And, it was my first time to see such adorable, expensive (imported) and high maintenance pitbulls. The place by the way was awesome. I mean super ideal for a family with those kinds of dogs to live in. I would not mind going there again or taking a vacation maybe.
I was able to write at least 9 short fan fictional stories and 6 parts for a long shot this month (still working on the seventh as of this very moment). Yey, giving myself a pat on the back! And I also got to download 2 episodes of WGM with Ssangchu cuts-so I was happy on the last Friday of the month despite the unexpected expenditure because of Basti (Grrrr! Bad dog!). I will continue downloading them until I get all 14 episodes plus the Chuseok special. I know it's been two years since they left the show, but I cannot help it, I am so addicted to them.
Hopefully, February would be a good one since I so truly hate this month. It just keeps on getting worse for me every year. Other than the fact that it keeps slamming the truth (about being NBSB) in my face, nothing just works my way on this freakin' month. Gah!! The sources of my mystical powers seem to hide under the radar during this time of the year.
Still, I'm praying for a good February-crossing fingers!!
