A Moment Like This

No one can ever tell how one should feel when they turn a year older. It's no one's right to tell someone what should they do when they turn 21. Aside from the fact that you can get married without your parents' consent, there will always be things that you want to do when God gave you another year to live.

In 10 days time, I will turn 21 and by then, I'll be allowed to everything. My dad told me that if I turn 21, he will no longer text me at night and ask me his most frequent asked question, "Are you home yet?" (Play Kelly Clarkson's A Moment Like This at this part. Hahaha!)

My mom just said that if I'm 21, she will try to sleep soundly at night when she knows I am out that night and trying to make the most out of my life and expect two weeks later that I am having my first child and her first grandchild, with our without a father. (Then at this part, Pumped Up Kicks by Foster The People)

My family can be comic at times but they usually tell me to take care and of course, save money. Mom always reminds me to spare 10% of my monthly salary on my savings, which I cannot do and frankly speaking, I don't know why. Maybe because, I usually feel a millionaire when I receive my perks of being a hardworking new graduate. That is why I decided to buy a planner this year. I noticed that my life became a little less stressful when I had my 2012 planner with me, and I have my space to put my expenses. Yay!

Enough of money matters. Before I went to sleep last night, I asked myself what are my 21st birthday wishes. At first, I don't have any, but the moment I closed my eyes (I hate my brain at times. Haha), 21 wishes went out of my head and they are as follows:

1. Summer getaway with friends. (Which I think is a must! BATANGAS BEACH!)
2. The Return of the Comeback of Benesse Corporation.
3. One sweet text on the 25th.
4. Small get-together with ABE 4-3 or Grown-ups
5. Simple yet complete celebration with family.
6. Visit my nanays in PUP.
7. Night out with Talen-TODO staff.
8. Everything back to normal. (Like, I'm begging!)
9. Good health
10. Great discoveries (Like neighbors' WiFi password, tunnel from Tycoon to Altura, stuff like that! Hahaha)
11. New set of Kalookies! (Celine, Chareez and I's favorite)
12. My reading glasses
13. Lose weight. (For the past week, I lost 4 lbs. Thanks to late night jogging at our family court)
14. Same friends 'till infinity and beyond (Buzz Lightyear levels!)
15. Let go of some things and people from the past.
16. Better health condition for the family
17. CAAAAAAR!
18. Roadtrip across the metro (My norm when I was still a college student)
19. Time
20. Be with BABA on my birthday
21. More blessings. :))

You see? Though I am turning 21, I still have this list of wishes. I guess, my kiddie side is just there, but sad to say, not the immature side because I have forgotten about that, long long time ago. Hahahaha :D #JustKidding
