Revealed Promises

Surprise, surprise! The promises mom kept for me are revealed! But not all promises, some are top secret, while some are just too common, everybody in the family knows it. So maybe this weekend, mom might buy me 1 of the few too-common promises, which is the UAAP Magazine 2011 edition. But maybe what's new in the promise list, a Cover Girl Wetslicks Lipgloss? Oh, she said she will just buy it for me instead. (Still, it's Shade #415/Crush) Now, it's more than 5, it's 6, if should it heads to 10, it should be all below P1000. (It's called 10 promises below P1000) So, maybe i should watch out for my mom keeping promises for me. You guys want to know why my mom's been doing this for me? Maybe i was just trying to escape the trouble of my life back in the day of October 16, 2006. Maybe there's a reason why mom does this, it's not just because i want to be happy again after a traumatic incident back in the past which happened 5 years ago, it's just because she could love to see me smile like nothing happened 5 years ago, like the darkest day of my life didn't happen at all.

Sometimes, i could think that i bought selected flavors of Eng Bee Tin Hopia (Ube, Mongo, Ube-Cheese, Ube-Pastillias, Choco Peanut & Mocha-Ccino) & a can or bottle of Pepsi as a snack. Mom is planning to have a family tour to Chinatown in Binondo for the 5 of us in the family. I was thinking of that since i was getting started to learn Mandarin, learning how to use chopsticks & a small ladle-like spoon which the Chinese use on soups when eating like when i could urge myself on having a hot bowl of Paotsin Laksa & begging my mom to get a haircut that i deserved to have, Vic Zhou meets Alexandria Everett. Wearing my orange-colored Meteor Garden tee, first pair of jeans given to me by my mom & a pair of comfy kicks like a nice pair of sneakers. (White Knit DLSU Green Archers Jacket optional, got to beg my cousin & auntie for that!) I know it's a few days away from the 5th year anniversary of the death of my old self. If my hair is already long, thin & layered, maybe i should learn on how to use a pair of hair chopsticks. Mom had more promises to me, if she could grant all of it, i don't have to blame myself what happened to me in the past. Instead, i could just smile it off instead.

The truth is, i don't want to accept what i did on the darkest day of my life 5 years ago, i wish i could think that didn't happen. But when the ghosts of the darkest day of my life back 5 years ago are back to haunt me, should i run away & cry or just show up like i entered on a big-time makeover session of my life.
