Dear Me,

This was supposed to be posted last October 7. To answer Jon's tag, here it is.

Ten Years Ago:
1. I was a gawky, shy freshman at the University of the Philippines - Manila campus.
2. I was still hoping that I would grow a few inches taller; I even subjected myself to eating rice with Star margarine.

Five years ago:
1. I waited for another year to graduate from the university so I could march onstage to get my diploma. I was an Octoberian and my mom preferred to see me graduate from college with formality.
2. I had officially joined the country's work force.

Two years ago:
1. I was experiencing quarter-life crisis.
2. I met Dex during my climb at Pico de Loro.

One year ago:
1. I was getting desperate and depressed over my life's course.

Yesterday:
1. My morning was a slur but the afternoon was a buzz.
2. I was making 'lambing' with my bf over the phone last night and it didn't turn out well. I just get frustrated when he cannot figure out when I am being sweet & irritable. Grr.
