Writing in Past Tense

To state the obvious, i haven’t blogged for a long time. ‘Long time’ doesn’t even cut it. I’ve no christmas post, no new year post, no college reunion post. no null none. Doesn’t mean they didn’t happen though.

Although right now, as an afterthought, i wish i made time to write about some of them. I wish I blogged about Pasko Sa Pinagbuhatan and Global Fun Carnival. Or about spending Christmas at home year after year after year and how it’s my favorite monotony. Or about Teng, Tina and Ai coming home for our longgg overdue reunion. Or about that block party I fondly replay in my head. Or about empyreanlives.com. About my eos. About finally driving solo.

The year ended and then soon began. Time flew without a word and my thoughts were nearly gone when I took notice.

So in a crzy workkk day such as today, I stopped for a while to make this Valentine’s post before it completely escapes me.

I expected Feb 14 to be a nonevent like it had always been, but this year it actually happened. It wasn’t a romantic day of grand gestures, it was a simple night of laughter and gooood food (yum!). It wasn’t red roses and chocolates, it were colorful wild flowers, hallmark cards and a funny (but touching *sniff*) accu-map. It wasn’t a boyfriend, it were my three friends who reminded me that I don’t need romance to feel exceptionally happy. There were no kisses nor hugs nor meaningful gazes but I’m sure I felt loved. Except for the part when we got lost and I nearly crashed the car (heheh), It made an otherwise perfect night.

Thanks Clar, Br and Ben for giving me a valentine’s day to write about =)
