home is where the heart is

there are those kinds of people who love to go out. to party, to spend their time out of their house. for them, that's their relaxation method. for me though, it's been kind of different. you'd expect, for a student like me, to want to get out and spend every moment of summer doing whatever i can: go to the beach, party, go out of town... yes, i do want to do these things but i decided not to. you see, i miss my home. i miss being home. when there's school, all you're thinking of is school. because of all the requirements, i'd rather live in school! then you have the block outings, the block meals (lunch, dinner, after dinner stuff), the block movies... there's actually enough time on weekends to do the partying your friends require. sometimes even after classes. then of course, there's the block study group too. come school time, it's mostly school stuff going on -- academic and non-academic.

for this summer, which is about to end come tomorrow, my bones craved to be just at home. i deliberately found ways not to go out (sorry to those who wanted me to go out) and only attended to the things that were required of me or to those that i really really wanted to do. I was actually kind of thankful that i got sick, that gave me a credible reason to stay home. and! i was already broke when summer began so what's the use of going out, right? anyways, i spend enough time with my friends in school. so why do i have to spend time with them now right? home. HOME is where i want to be.

The great thing is, today, my uncle Ted is coming back home. He's finally come back home! i've missed him so much and he's finally back home. :) it's been so looooong. he's finally finally back. Another beautiful thing is, Auntie Gigi is with him. i'm so excited! oh wait, they're here! gotta go.

glad that you do not allow pressure to make you do things you don't really care to do.
