Happiness Exercise Number 13

1. It is so great to be back home, and to spend some time with my sister. Watching Caroline hack her lung while still making beautiful art blows me away. How did I get such a jewel of a sister? Such a beauty, such a fighter? How is it that we are the same--that she is my twin, that I allegedly look like her? She is my ally, my best friend.

2. I am below 150. I am grateful for that.

3. I managed to get through Chapter 2 of that College Essay book. *phew*

4. I am going to be 29 this year. I don't have cancer or am obese, or an eating disorder. I am healthy.

5. Jonathan and Leo. Vanessa. Wivine. Yanira. Didi. Karla. Cheryl. Daniella. Michie. Mira. Naosha. Michelle. Lolo. Manang Fe. Mrs. Delgado. Tita Tess. J.P. Colin. Brian. Chin Shan Sze. TJ. Janny. Queenie. K.C. Sheryl. Nancy. Gita.

You are snuggly. You know how to make vagina cookies. You know how to look adorable in a corny pink sweater outfit. You cook amazing Pasta Alle Cinque Pi, Tinola, Filipino Spaghetti, Braised Chicken with Mushrooms, Roasted Broccoli, Collard Greens, Lechon, Spaghetti Carbonara, among many other things. You have adorable kid jewelry that you wear on fancy occasions sometimes. You refuse to say mean things to some of your friends who are prone to being "blunt"(aka nasty) because you never feel that being cruel is necessary. You are responsible. You are ethical. I love you.
