Behind this smile is a strong heart and a thousand words you do not know.
In a little while, we’ll be going back to your house for another fun-filed celebration. But this time, it’s gonna be different. So I know while you’re busy preparing the food, drinks, videoke or maybe you’re busy with your Nikki Love right now but just in case you can read this.. GUSTO LANG KITA PAIYAKIN.

Marie Abigail Posadas, the Master of Maaarteng Bata, we will miss you. The Cancerous Birthday will not be complete this year. But please let’s not implement that “cyber-shot”, ok? Please send us money so we can celebrate. You know it’s always divided by 5 (You, deb, mark, kay and me).
But seriously, I admit that I have been busy with a lot of things lately and you too that we hardly talk nor see each other. So before you leave, I’m dedicating one entry for you in my maarte blog.
THANK YOU for the almost 3 years of friendship, for supporting TJMA in our events and competitions especially my favorite debate (remember?), for the treats when we thirst for some oxygen when we need a breather back in College. You know how maarte we were before that we feel like we were going through so much but now we laugh about it. And also for your treats whenever you’re broken-hearted and you wanna go out. Thank you for the many times you listened to my madrama stories and much more, to your advice that I don’t really absorb because I’m hard-headed like you. Thank you for the Php900.00 that you added to my RMP fee, for the late-night tutorials, for the magazines you lent me, for the drive going to and from the RMP exam, for submitting my requirements and picking up the proof of our “license” yesterday. Thank you that even if we are both maarte we found a way to turn our negative emotions to positive results.
For the next two years, it’ll be hard for you to text me “Alis tayo” but I know that you’ve grown so much and I believe that you’re ready for this mature chapter of your life. The crazy stage was over so pack them all and set it aside, one day we’ll die laughing about those. And honestly, I am proud of you. I know that leaving us (haha) is one of the saddest decision you’ve made and until now I still don’t know the exact reason and I still can’t believe that you are actually leaving next week but I admire your guts, seriously. You were able to realize which one to prioritize first that you decide to take this big risk. MAGALING, MAGALING.
I believe in you, I trust in your dreams and I can’t wait to see you fulfill those. Go fly and fight like a dragon. When it’s full moon in the west, tweet us and remember that these sh**ty moods of Cancer are just a phase, it will not last long. Be good, behave. Have a safe trip next week!
I’ve always asked myself if one day I could love someone as much as my mother does. The unconditional love she gives us always makes me wonder that how and where in the world could she ever get that. She doesn’t know this, she doesn’t know how amazed and thankful I am for that love.
My mom had started living for us at a VERY early age. Marriage and motherhood has thrown her a lot of sacrifices to make and responsibilities to bear. And she painfully stood by it. For 23 years, my mom wasn’t a perfect mother for me; it wasn’t even a perfect relationship with her. We argue many times, answering her back as if we were of same age, taking her for granted for a lot of times as well. But as years go by and as I mature a little, I realized that I was gifted with a perfect mother and a bestfriend. For the many times I pity myself and lose my worth, she always reminds me how God loves me. She believed in me when it was hard for everyone to believe in me. She believed in my dreams when it was harder to reach those. She stood by me when I was in a huge blackhole that I thought I cannot get out of. She didn’t help me nor do things for me, she lifted me up through her prayers. She wasn’t by my side all these years but she never made me feel that we were apart. She never judged my shortcomings or my carelessness and she never got angry with my stupidities. She is always happy when I achieve something and everytime I get one step closer to my dreams but she never pressured me to give back. She pampers me when I’m tired even if she deserves it more because she’s more tired than I am. She is a listener, a prayer warrior and a great friend to other people too.
Since I was a kid until now, everytime we have to separate I always get teary-eyed, and she doesn’t know that too, I always have that separation anxiety when she leaves even if it’s just for a short time because I’ve always felt an unconditional comfort when I’m with her. And that I can relax and not worry about a single thing when she is there.
I am proud of her that amidst all the challenges she has gone through, she is still standing strong now, even stronger, actually. She inspires me to be a better, stronger and loving person. I am thankful for having her in my life, inspite of not having luxurious dates with her nor expensive gifts from her, just by being herself is already a precious gift to me that is worth more than any of those.
My mom is God’s concrete proof of His unconditional love for me and I am blessed for this. A big part of who and where I am today is because of her.
Happy Mother’s Day, Ma! I love you. :)

As you always tell me, keep on smiling. :)
