Every December, my high school barkada and I visit Our Lady of Perpetual Help Orphanage in Taal, Batangas to bring some toys, some books, some clothes, some food and some fun. This is how we end the year.
Although it seems like an act of charity, it’s more like an act of gratitude, really. This is our way of acknowledging all the blessings that came along our way in the year that is just about to come to a close.
We’ve been doing this since we were college freshmen. It’s been 7 years. Pero mas marami kami ngayong taon. Mas marami ring gifts. Mas masaya. Mas magulo. Mas nakakatuwa.
But I hope, this 2009 is gonna be different. I’ve been urging my friends to help me throw a party for cancer patients, instead. Meow here kinda inspired me. I realized that since I completely understand what cancer patients are going through, I should be helping them feel better. I lost my dad to cancer and we almost had the same problem with my mum.
Yeah, I really should be doing that. I’m gonna need to brush up on the forgotten Art of Brainwashing and Manipulation, which I haven’t practiced in quite a while. Haha.
Ahem, ahem.

one with a golden heart does not need manipulation or brainwashing to be a part of that party…
just ask..who knows, some of them will surprise you…
haha, yeah. but my barkada might insist to just stick with the orphanage since it’s become a tradition for us.
sharing is caring, forgetting selfishness for a while and giving back our blessings to the less fortunate, for me its the most fulfilling thing that i can do right now.
bonus na lang yung unexplainable na pakiramdam pag ginagawa mo yan, hehe
pero ang sarap ng feeling talaga di ba? haha.
Actually. Hehe. Wala kami ganyan ng friends ko pero ung simple things lang, like used to buy food for a street kid sa LB dati. Tapos parang tuwang-tuwa na siya. Makakabagbag-damdamin pero somehow fulfilling.
ok na siguro yun.
you’re starting to brainwash us with this post noh?! hehehe
actually. haha. paparinig lang.
what a way to give thanks
i hope this year would be more fruitful for you..

join ka sa amin, yearly kami ng mga sisterhood, pero depende sa area. saan ba ang target mo? Batangas, mukhang si Dr. Maano dyan..
why not burn patients din, kaya lang mukhang heal na sila… or sali ka sa fire prevention month. well, suggesting lang naman..
