Close, Closer, Closure

Eleven. Seventeen. Eleven, being the number of day's till christmas and seventeen being of the number of day's left in the year. It's amazing how fast everything went. As we close up the New Year I just want to say that It's been a great one. I don't think anything could have made it any better. There some things that didn't go my way but hey, it shouldn't matter now. A new leaf is about to turn & I really can't wait (: Life has taken me by so many surprises and I am grateful for every single one of them.

This time of the year, it's coming closer to the deadline to finish last year resolutions & the funny thing is, I don't remember a single one of them. ;D!! So, let talk about some of the ones I'm setting for myself this year: 

To be more "Legal" (if you know what I mean)
Focus on career goals
Become more "held together" 
Continue being a part of musicals
Accomplish some of the things on my Bucket List
All A's @ least once
Organization & Cleanliness 
Keep strong bonds with my family & friends
 
I think that's all for now. 

Anyway gonna wrap it up here so I can study for my exams tomorrow ,

Peace&Love<3

Bucket List

Since the new year is just around the corner I was thinking that it was time to start planning change. No, not resolutions but change. So instead of doing what every other human being on the earth is doing, I am not going to make a list of resolutions that I probably won't follow. Instead, I decided to start on my "Bucket List". For those of you who do not know what that is, it's the same as the "things to do before I die" list. Doesn't bucket list sound like a shorter, simpler, and nicer why to list "goals" for yourself....yeah ok thats what I thought. So, this is what I came up with so far:

Stay close with my family, cousins and friends
Get a doggy
Star in a show/movie/commercial
Kiss in the rain
Kiss in the snow
Have a snow ball fight
Write a song
Learn to play an instrument fluently
Speak French fluently
Speak Ilocano fluently
See the Eifel Tower
Perform Internationally
Have a concert
Perform at award show
Get an award at an award show

Endings...

I can't help but think that a week from now, one of the best things in my life is going to come to an end. Endless friendships, life long memories, and a whole lot of passion. I don't think I can ever remember a time when I put so much heart, trust, and faith into something and now that I'm seeing it come to an end, I don't think I could ever feel exactly that way again. You could go ahead and say that I'm being overly dramatic about it, but if you stood where I am standing it would be as difficult to you as it is to me. 

It was more than just a musical to me. I believe that we did more than just sing, dance, and act. We lived the story through each everyone of us. It was 2 months of aching feet and tired voices. But as much we say it was hard work I don't think I've ever had that much fun. We may not admit it but we all have a little piece of each character in us. What we never realized was that we brought the story of friendship to life. Before all of this happened we were all in different worlds and liked different things. Now, we are all practically inseparable. There were the occasional down sides but we always had each other to work through it together. To me, it wasn't just a musical... it was a passion. Every single day looking forward to doing what you love to do the most with the people you love doing it with. I can't help but think that there is just 1 more weekend to portray our story to an audience. Hopefully the bonds we have made along the way can withstand even the farthest distance, whether it's day's or miles. Like we've sung many times before... WERE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER!
