After our wedding, many things and happy
surprises kept pouring in. I thank God for being so kind to us. But along with those happy surprises are
challenges and roadblocks along the way. For now, Bee and I are currently
staying at my parent’s house in Bukidnon but at the end of the week, we will
then transfer temporarily at Bee’s place. I kinda miss our starter place in
Villa Ernesto. For me, it’s our “home” together and we created happy memories
there. I miss our daily routine as married couple; cooking, washing the dishes,
mopping the floor, eating together, and watching “FRIENDS” before sleeping among
others. But some things have to go and I am quite sad that we have to say
goodbye to our love nest that soon. Bee and I are like “wanderers”; we kept on
transferring from one place to another. Every week or two, we found ourselves
packing our stuff because we have to touch base with both of our families.
But yes, I am looking forward for the days to
come. It will be a new place for us. This time, it will have a spacious garage
and we will not be worried on getting car scratches then. The new place is
quite big for starters but it will be a good one for starting a family. I can
now bring the oven which papa and mama gave to us and we can finally bake! I
can dreamily picture myself baking cookies and making cupcakes for my kids. (hopefully
and with God’s grace) There is also a space for me and Bee to dig the soil and
I can prolly plant some of my favourite flowers or hang some flowery pots by
the porch. And yes, it will not be
complete without having a dog to guard us day and night.
I know.. I know… here I am dreamily thinking on
a gloomy, rainy twilight. But I always dream of a house with French windows, an
attic and a white picket fence to boot. I sometimes dream of being a plain
housewife—like Bree in Desperate Housewives. (hahahaha) Bree who attends her kids’
PTA’s , hosts on family dinner and gatherings, cooks and bakes for her friends
who came by and mows the lawn with her perfectly groomed self.
But yeah, perish the thought Ivyleaguer! Time to
finally burst that bubble of yours.. hahaha…
Seriously, I am a 28 year old married woman with
responsibilities to think. I gladly accept the roles cut out especially for me.
I need to work hard for the future and I also need to finish grad school for
professional growth and for a brighter career ahead.
Few more days of a much needed rest as advised
by the doctor, then I am back to work and yes, back to school. The grades are done and the notes still in
progress. Next week will be a busy one for me and Bee; the moving in and moving
out, hectic working schedules, grad school papers and requirements and some
other things in between.
It will not just be another busy week or month
for us, but a busy year ahead to celebrate life’s magical wonders as well.
