Yesterday was a very busy day for all of us at home. My mom woke up early and started her day in panic mode. Aside from my brothers' contest, she has an important meeting/audit at work. Good thing ( was it?!? ) I was already up doing my morning routine. I witnessed how my mom literally went about, "checking - rechecking - asking me to check - recheck and again asking me to check" tickets... my brothers' schedule, outfit and accessories... relatives watching... budget the money for gas, food and alike. My lil bros' rehearsal was at 1pm and my mom was stressing out as early as 6:30 in the morning. She left me in charge, she stressed that I made sure everything was complete and on schedule. Typical mama, panic first rather than thinking constructively/actually doing the deed. Sometimes I feel like my moms' secretary, the way she makes you feel that you should deliver results at command. Shes' the boss at work as well as at home.
Moving on... ( before this entry turn into something else... )
Though he didn't place in the singing contest, my brother won "Singfarers Texters' Choice". He brought home cash prizes, gift packs, a brand new Zellyphone and a plaque.
Remarks made by the judges "he exudes confidence on stage". He really enjoyed performing and was really proud how his hands didn't shake on stage. He was not nervous at all.
He was supposed to join "La Salle Idol" in Zobel but the auditions were held on the days he had to attend to Singfarers' rehearsals.Well at least he gets to relax after the contest. He's currently enrolled in Center For Pop Music Philippines Level 2 and we can't wait to attend his recitals/shows and surprise us again.
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.
Mood Swings
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...
