hopefully, i'm back!
*cheers* S-O-R-R-Y for being on hiatus for such a long time. I haven't blogged in Vox for so long, I feel like I'm abandoning something that's been dear to me. Fret not, I am back and I will try as much as possible to give the gist of the summer that I just had. I know it's funny because summer is over, school is starting and I'm still in reminiscing mode. There's no harm in remembering good memories, right?
I revamped my whole interface and changed it into still yet another bright colored layout. I do believe that surrounding oneself with bright and happy colors bring out the shine inside too. So, even if I do love black, I have time for lots of brightness in my life.
This summer, I am truly blessed to visit Macau and Hong Kong with my mom and sisters. Thankfully, the swine flu fever haven't started when we actually traveled, that would be a total bummer. We stayed at the Venetian Hotel and it was extravagantly beautiful. But going to the mainland and relishing the culture of Macau is incomparable in itself. Hong Kong wasn't a stranger to us already, but we never get tired of going around a city that never fails to feel alive even if it's 12 in the morning. Disneyland of course, still touches my heart in so many ways. I will forever be a kid at heart.
It wasn't all about traveling and trips out, I had summer classes too. Biochemistry was something that I didn't expect would come splashing in my face. It was really hard and when I mean hard, it's probably the hardest chemistry subject I have taken in my life. But, I survived. I survived that course to the very last minute and I give all praises to God for giving me the courage and hope.
The most important blessing I am thankful for would be my experience in Steps as an Alumni. I really missed dancing Jazz because I've stopped for almost three years now. It was definitely a hard decision but sacrifices have to be made when going through life. I am thankful for being able to train again, stretch and keep myself fit and strong over the summer. I am thankful for a successful show and for the wonderful experience.
Now that school is finally starting, I can't imagine having time for all that I did over the summer. Nonetheless, it's time to be serious. Going into my third year just hit me in the head, two more years, and I'm off to medical school and I know that I have to do better. I shouldn't be slacking off this time and work really hard. And if that means that I have to sacrifice most of my leisure time then I shouldn't hesitate to do so, because if there's one thing that I've realized over the summer, every hardship will have its rewards in the end. Everyone just has to be patient.
Cuidate everyone! I'll keep you posted.
