A letter from Oct 30, 2025

Hello. I'm writing this letter for no particular reason (eme). I hope you're well by the time you read this. I'm just full of thoughts. I want to remind you how fast things are, and you may or may not even realize it at this point. One year from now, stress ka na siguro sa thesis pero huminga ka rin baks, okay lang 'yan. Pero hindi about diyan ang sasabihin ko. Gusto ko lang sabihin sa'yo na sana magtiwala ka pa sa sarili mo more often than you do. Alam ko strong girl tayo pero it's okay if can't figure everything out yet. Please take your time and be a little kinder to yourself. Share ko lang din, I wrote an entry for my journal kanina because my thoughts are all over the place lately, and I haven't written anything for the last three months. Nag debrief ako ng mga ganap ko sa buhay. Sobrang nakakapagod. Mahirap. But I survived. There were circumstances I've dealt with that made me doubt and question kung saan ba talaga ako magaling and kung ano ba talaga ang gusto ko sa buhay. I couldn't help not to overthink sometimes kasi yung mga pinili natin na mga tao sa paligid natin ay parang alam na nila yung mga direksyon nila. Na-open ko siya doon sa journal but I didn't go much on details kasi di na siya fresh, I guess? Na-accept ko na sa sarili ko why things happened. On the other hand, be grateful always sa mga nakapaligid sa'yo, na nakikita yung mga magagandang bagay na hindi mo nakikita sa sarili mo. By the time you read this, sana you're happy with what you have achieved so far and love yourself even more. Naniniwala ako. Ang hirap talaga ng adulting, girl. Sana na brief tayo dito, sana may guidemap na pwede gawing reference para ma-handle yung mga emotions and worries natin sa buhay. Kung meron lang talaga, hays. Para hindi lang puro rant itong letter na 'to, sana may jowa ka na this time. Or sana may nilandi/lumandi naman na sa'yo. LOL. Basta sana may update na sa romantic aspect ng buhay mo. Please, lord. 😭🙏🏼 Anyway, yun lang. I believe in you, self. Laban lang. You got this!
