2 months to go

.... i count by months, he counts by paydays. he thinks it's shorter that way. i think it's longer since in a month there are two. but still i've gone from 4 months to 2 and he's gone from 8 to 4. we're both counting as eagerly for The Day.

.... i still can't believe we've managed having a relationship this far away from each other. all my friends, knowing how i am about relationships, didn't expect me to be in one of this kind. i'm the touchy-feely type. i like dates, holding hands, talking, watching movies together, spending time together. now the first relationship i am fortunate to have after waiting for 30 years has finally come & he's literally a thousand miles away. but like all of my friends who got married not because they had to, when you meet the right one you just know. 

.... i've asked for signs. i've prayed. the signs were there. took some time before i figured eveything out. when The Day comes he and i will both know if our prayers have really been answered. it's funny how one asks for signs. there were times when i thought i had seen signs only to find out i was going far ahead of myself. and then the signs were staring at me but it took awhile before they registered.

.... i hope this would be the last time we'll be apart. i don't think either of us can handle another long separation. right now, we spend every minute we can talking. the emails are endless. his letters in my inbox has a separate folder and the contents are a 3-figure number. and that's only counting from november. my other inbox looks quite similar and that's from september to november. i wouldn't mind the numbers decreasing if it would mean i'd finally see him first thing in the morning and the last thing at night.

..... 2 more months...

a new christmas

for the past years i have spent my christmases with my family, waiting for text messages from my close friends & wishing the following year i'd have someone else to share the season with. last year was the only time i didn't wish for that. a personal crisis kept me from enjoying christmas. my maternal lolo, whose house my family & i lived in, passed away the day after Christ was born. we spent christmas eve taking pictures at the hospital thinking he might be ready to go home after a few days since he was gay enough. the next day we went back & found out it would be the last Christmas he'd have with us. That Christmas i didn't wish for someone else. i wished my lolo would make it. But i guess God had other plans & somehow, in my heart i've realized lately, my lolo knew but didn't tell me.
this Christmas was a somber one but a new one for me.  This is the last Christmas my youngest brother would be joining us alone. next year he would be coming home for the holidays with his wife. Also this year, i did get a call from someone other than my closest friends. also, if things go well for both of us, there wouldn't be repeats of calls on Christmas but a whole new & wonderful way of celebrating the season.
