Life Lately 2023

 Hey, it's been more than two years since I last updated this blog.  Lots of things had happened and has been going on, I just can't really find time to gather my thoughts and post it in the blog. The perfectionist in me had procrastinated so much already. (OMG I just realized now, how could there be procrastination in perfectionism? Is there a connection? I will probably ponder about this in another blogpost haha.)


But hey, what's so hard about a life lately post? 


  

Here are some photos I captured yesterday. Lately has been peaceful and controlled unlike in the past year. I remembered how messed up I was in the past two years-- juggling too many work, adjusting in a new role, conflicts in workplace, heartbreak, postgraduate studies. 

I am in a much better place now.

I am in my last school year in DepEd as a teacher in Tomas Cabili National High School, and savoring every moment with my students and colleagues. Here are my very responsible and fun students of Grade 12-STEM. They made it easier to be their homeroom adviser. <3



I still keep my friends close-- especially those who matter. My main gurls, my highschool friends, my frenChEps. (I would also like to include here my main Dgroup gurls-- Cha, Chiqui, Megan-- but I can't find pics.) And adults as we are, we hardly have time to see each other as we go on with our daily lives, and yet we kept in touch once in a while. Thankful for these bonds.


I've also met new people. I have been attending CCF Sunday Service and B1G Fridays/Saturdays and I have encountered amazing people. I was included in a new Dgroup by Ate Gee and met good people there. I could not count with my hands how many people, whose lives are touched by Jesus Christ, I've already been inspired on. I've been with these people for only a few moments yet they treated me like we've known each other for a long time. This really amazes me.

Now, every week, I try my best to join GLC classes every Tuesday, B1G Fridays/Saturdays, Dgroup sessions, and Sunday Service. I am also getting back to my daily devotionals and Bible reading which I had put into pause in last two years. The Lord is faithful, still.


   

Personal check: my family is still in tact, praise God. My two brothers are placed in stable jobs. My parents are still healthy. And me, currently the driver of the family, I am just trying to get by everyday, wondering what the future holds. Here's a recent selfie of mine.

Ah, right! I have an update-- sadly, I gave up drinking coffee everyday because I experienced hyperacidity. It was a habit I liked so much and continued for 3 years but I was able to let it go. 

Oh, life's ebb and flows. 
Only God's love is constant-- I am forever grateful.
