the first time.


ain’t sure whether the first time working while fasting

made it seem like the fasting mth this yr is too short.

I feel guilty for not performing the obligations

as strictly as I would want to.

but when I ask the others if they felt the same way,

most concurred.

wonder why.


it felt slightly weird,

changing a sum of money to the stack of smaller bills,

folding it, and putting it in the sampul.

felt. grown-up.


reminded me of the conversation I had with

my 2 gal pals last nite at soffz’ place.

soffz commented tt me n habz’ getting insurance plans

was such a grown-up thing to do.

and all tt talk abt dates….

wadever happened to talking abt nick carter (okayyy,

yours truly had a MAJOR crush on this bloke wayyy back then)

or about them Victorians (ok, not my cuppa tea tho)

or huever I was hanging out with during my sec sch days?


as we went on abt jobs, future plans, prospective mother-n-laws,

I couldn’t help but take a step back,

and think abt wad happened in between.

habz’ career is taking off and I couldn’t be more happier for her,

soffz is forever the adventurous girl and is going to spread her wings very soon,

and me, the one who wants a stable everything – career, family, marriage, frens.


I could see the qualities that we possess since our sec sch days,

Taking its form in us.

I just couldn’t believe tt it’s all happening so soon.

Well, not tmr, or next mth kinda soon, (for me at least)

But soon, down the road.


But I support my girls in wadver they want to do and achieve.

Just like I know how they are praying, hoping, wishing,

that my plans will materialize very soon.


I’ll miss you girl, but I pray that you’ll achieve your dreams.

Gambatte!
