OH well 2008 is about to end for like 48 hours and we'll say to a new year, new hopes, new beginnings. As i am typing down this post I remembered all that has happened to me for this year. I think 2008 is not the year for me. I had too much pains, too much troubles, many criticisms and much more a near death experience. Though those things seemed to taught me a lot and made me a better person. I'll have a run down of the highlights of my life this year, just so you know.
JANUARY: I was 6 months pregnant the when my nanay was sent to the ICU. It was a major heartbreak for me. She's super important to me knowing that I was just a little girl she and her family took care of.
FEBRUARY: Second week of this month she died (my nanay). I just found myself in front of her coffin crying out loud. And due to too much stress I delivered a premature baby (7 mos and only 2.2 lbs) cos I suffered from Eclampsia. A very dangerous complication of pregnancy. I almost died. My doctor's were telling me that they'll save me and not the baby cos she's not really viable yet. And since all mom's were like "what fcuk are you talking about? save the life of the baby not me" I also uttered those words. Luckily we both survived though she needed to say in the incubator for a month for her organs to develop and for her lungs to mature.
MARCH: Money! All we need is money! My baby's ready to go home but the we still need to pay 80,000 for the hospital bill not including the PF. And since we're not prepared my mom shouldered half of the bill and had a strict rule that she'll not pay for the rest. My hubby and I kept fighting cos we don't know where to get the moolah. (FYI: My parents are really mad cos they don't know that I was pregnant then until they saw me at the labor room. I was rushed to the hospital morning of Feb. 28) Good thing they got to borrow money for someone. Total Bill for me and the baby? 350K. damn!
APRIL: Baih and I kept on fighting over petty things! It was a hard time for us. My parents kept on having this daily sermons to me. My relatives are laughing on me. My cousins we're like judging me. I know my titos and my titas we're telling their kids not to follow their "ate dana" cos I'm not a good example to them. I'm a failure. I'm not someone they can be proud of. And my answer to them? "I know, I am"
MAY: We need moolah again for Dani's Baptism. Mom and I kept on fighting cos I had to stick with our budget but then she had to many additions and everything. But with the help of the One up there its all done.
JUNE: I was desperate to look for a job! As in like superr badly needed. I don't like to go back to my old work kasi.
JULY: Oh its my birthday month. I must be happy this month I think..
AUGUST: My life's been crazy this month. Frank and I almost split up. PSP and cellphones were broken during this month cos he threw it and then slam it on the floor. We had space for 2 days. I cried a lot.
SEPTEMBER: I started working again. And then my mom's been crazy. She kept blabbing and blabbing and blabbing! I want to die! I can't stand it!
OCTOBER: Work is good. But I missed Frank. No time for us cos we're both busy. We always had this routine argument every night cos we missed each other soo much!
NOVEMBER: Still too much argument with mom. She's kinda acting weird this year. I don't know maybe its because I'm a failure to them.
DECEMBER: I fell in and then out of love in just a snap! I felt so stupid! NO really I am such a dork! I felt so guilty! I won't be elaborating. It just makes me look down on myself more and more.
See, my year's been one heck of a roller coaster ride. I didn't include others pa nga eh. But then I have high hope for the coming 2009. I won't be making my new year's resolution. why? I just don't want too. I'll just try to be a better and more improved person. Haha Goodluck to me! :)
