Happy Thoughts

Okay, so the past week had been great! I spent a lot of quality time with my brother-in-law Edwin and his wife Bingbing (who I happened to be friends with since 5th grade!)...We had a blast, eating, singing, and behaving like teenagers dancing at El C with our friends... (The same circle who's been there for my hubby and me when we were just starting).  Today though,  some things took a sharp turn.  Oh it has nothing to do with my bro, haha.  But things made me so sad today. Really rock-bottom sad.  I know this too will pass but you know how it is when things just seem to be the end of the world. I'm just trying to think happy thoughts right now.  Somehow, they help me pull through all the time, really!  So what kind of happy thoughts am I thinking of? I stored some pretty good ones in my memory bank for emergency, specifically for times like this! Let me see...first would be, when Aldred said "Finally, you're the ONE. I love you and I want you to be my wife." That made me cry buckets...What else? Oh, yeah, me and my friend Merv many years back in Manila during one of my first times driving around the city, I actually reached several places twice in a row ("Hey Clarisse, didn't we see this same statue an hour ago?")...we were laughing so hard that he actually told me to remember that day whenever I'm sad (here you go, Merv, I remembered!). What else, oh, my famous "Caroline thoughts".  I will always remember that teaching year with her as my student.  She sure left me with so much memories I couldn't even count them.  But that one memory that always brings a smile to my face is when she said "Teacher C, I love you more than you love me" and I said "No, Caroline, I love you more than you love me".  And she said "But Teacher C, I love you 155 thousand times! See, I love you more than you love me". 

SEE, I FEEL BETTER ALREADY...
