Last Salu-salo

When we were in second year my friends and I started this whole thing about someone bringing food every other day. It was fun! coz the food was always yummy and it was for free haha. But we stopped when we were in third year because...wala lang. So, last monday we decided to have our last salu-salo! yehey! Cea brought brownies, I brought ice and utensils :), bernice - drinks, soph - cake, nicole and alex- lasagna, anna mars - bbq, and dana- liempo. grabe, busog kaming lahat. :)

Our salu-salo was more than just the food. It was the thing that brought us together and it was an opportunity to strengthen our bond with each other.

AC with you guys is home. Thanks for always being there for me and for making my life more colorful and fun!

“We all think we’re going to be great and we feel a little bit robbed when our expectations aren’t met. But sometimes expectations sell us short. Sometimes the expected simply pales in comparison to the unexpected. You got to wonder why we cling to our expectations, because the expected is just what keeps us steady. Standing. Still, the expected’s just the beginning, the unexpected is what changes our lives.”

“Maybe we're not supposed to be happy. Maybe gratitude has nothing to do with joy. Maybe being grateful means recognizing what you have for what it is. Appreciating small victories. Admiring the struggle it takes simply to be human. Maybe we're thankful for the familiar things we know. And maybe we're thankful for the things we'll never know. At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing is reason enough to celebrate.”

“We have to make our own mistakes. We have to learn our own lessons. We have to sweep today’s possibility under tomorrow’s rug until we can’t anymore, until we finally understand for ourselves like Benjamin Franklin meant. That knowing is better than wondering, that waking is better than sleeping. And that even the biggest failure, even the worst most intractable mistake beats the hell out of never trying.”
