Even before my dad got home, he kept mentioning that he wanted to go home to Iloilo (my parents hometown) while he was on vacation and he is also eager to visit my Lola (my dad's side of the family, actually she was here in Manila last year to have her operation). We were already planning to set a date by next week, when my mom called and said that she already bought one-way airline tickets for tomorrow morning. I was surprised... I was even more surprised and excited than my dad. ...Why... because of my hammock! I absolutely love the hammock at my lola's house. I could just stay there all day fresh air, with a good book, music or just simply stare blanky at the sky. Well this is it for now... I'd have to take my meds so that I can wake up early.
I have a typical first name and that is Kristina. It could be spelled-out in different ways (Cristina, Christina, Xtina and what have you) but nevertheless it still sounds the same. For the last 2 decades of my existence, my name has evolved from Maria, tin-tin, Kristina, Kristeta, tina, tins and in an effort to be unique I finally chose a hyphenated name now I am t-na.

Confessions
I always said the right things, throwing smiles left and right, ignoring "unpleasant" scenarios pretend that it didn't happen. I found it difficult to say NO, even though I really don't want to do it. To top it off, I always believed that "If I could just be nice to other people, maybe they will also be nice to me in return". Now, realizing that all of that crap I thought of is just full of shit since a lot of people took advantage of my disposition. Some of them even recognized that I was gullible and naive but instead of correcting me, they completely did the opposite. I've treasured momments of reflection and meditation, the healing of wounds. One day I'll face and conquer my demons...
