It's Monday and I just got home from school. I actually got home by 7:30pm, and I personally believe that 7:30pm is a late time to get back home from schoool. Now, gettin' home this late is not really good without an exact reasonable reason to put in the picture. Ofcourse, I had my reason. I've said it in my previous blogs that I have so many extra-curricular activities in school.
Every Monday we have this Christian fellowship called "U5". It starts at 4:30pm-6:00pm. We did get started too late so as a result, it ended up really late as well. Now that's what I call a reasonable reason.
It was really dark outside, and a little dangerous-looking surrounding caught my eyes. But I wasn't scared off for I was with my friends walking. As usual, I got home safe. As I entered our home sweet home, I saw my mother with this not-so-good-look on her face. I knew it that she was worrying about me. I was a tadbit told off-I got a bit scolded. But I've always come to understand her in this kind of situations. I knew she was only worried about me. I've always known that.
I went inside my room and dropped my things, changed my clothes, and ate dinner. After all of these things I felt a total discomfort. I don't know why but, I was totally and completely feeling uneasy. It's like mixed emotions like being irritated, exhausted, tired, sad, hurt, pained, and more uneasy feelings! It was cold now, I could feel the cool breeze of the air entering through the screen of my window. It was touching my skin. I turned my PC(which is located inside my room) on, and while waiting for my computer to start up, I lay down on my bed covering my body with the white blanket I have. For some reason, my blanket is cold and at the same time, it was cold this time. No matter how much I believe the fact that my body is covered with this blanket, it's still cold and it just brings me the frost that I've always wanted in my whole life.
While laying down, covered with blanket, cuddling my hotdog pillow, and staring at my wall, I felt the discomfort I felt these past couple of weeks. And there's this cold feeling that swirls all around me, that even makes me feel more irritated and discouraged than ever! I don't know why but...I feel like I've got a lot in my mind but I just can't specify each. I almost forgot that my PC had just finished booting. I sat in front of my computer, signed in to Yahoo Messenger, checked my Yahoo mailbox, and checked my Friendster page as well. After checking all of them I felt that I wanted to do something but I can't actually specify that thing(I always act like this). I knew it was something about story-telling and all that stuff, until I already figured it out. And that is to post another blog here on my blogspot page.=]
-My most-treasured book
I was looking all around my room, hoping that I could find something cool to talk about. It was not any longer that I've laid my eyes on a book with a picture of a man climbing up a ladder (looks like he's reaching for something high), and they(the man and the ladder) were both inside a wrestling ring. On the top right of the cover, it read "heartbreak and triumph:The Shawn Michaels Story" and on the bottom right of it, read "by Shawn Michaels with Aaron Feigenbaum". In other words, I saw my Shawn Michaels wrestling book and upon seeing this most-treasured book of mine, it looked like my surrounding faded out to white and a memory faded in.
I remember the time that I really really really wanted to have this book sooooo badly! As in I badly wanted to have it! The problem is, I had a hard time on finding it here in my country, Philippines. That time, I believed that it can only be found in the USA. I didn't really know where could I find it here in the Phil., or more accurately I believed that Philippine stores didn't have any product like this. I started to feel hopeless and sad. You guys know how much I love and addicted I am to wrestling, and how much I love Shawn Michaels. So it's a very blissful thing for me to have many wrestling products, especially Shawn Michaels products.
It was New Year's eve of 2007 and I believed that everyone in the Philippines were happily preparing to welcome the New Year(2008) that was upon all of the people in this world. As far as
"Philippine habitual act/routine" is concerned, we welcome the New Year that is upon everyone of us by means of something that is done through a happy blast. Aside from eating or something like a celebration, we actually light up different types of fireworks with great joy in welcoming the New Year! hahahahahaha! And it's really fun I kid you not. The clock turned 12midnight and it was already January 1, 2008! People everywhere were alive and enthusiastic, screaming and shouting the words "Happy New Year!". And after this, if you think it's over well it's not yet sweet cheeks. haha! This moment has no "afters" because some people continue celebrating and lighting up fireworks until the sun shines. Some people did not sleep.
It was 3am of the 1st day of the year 2008 when I signed in to my YM. I saw many people online. My godparent, Ninang Jopin who's living in the States was online that time. We were both excited to chat with each other because we haven't seen each other for like foreeeeeveeeeeeerrr! The last time she saw me was when I was really really really young like 3years old or somethin' like that. We talked a lot about really alot that time, until we came to the topic of gift-giving. She told me that she would give me a gift. She said that it's gonna be a Christmas and New Year gift and that it's a gift that she would really give me since she hasn't given me anything for the last 13 years! I mean hello?! I'm her goddaughter.=] Haha! I thought she was about to really give me something until she said "what do you want?ü". I was like wow! Ain't it crazy? The present would be my request! I was like yaaaaaaay! I was even more like yaaaaaaaaaay! when I remembered the fact that I badly wanted the Shawn Michaels Book. I said that I badly wanted to have the "Heartbreak and Triumph:a Shawn Michaels Story" book and that I badly wanted and I'm badly interested to know everything about him.
In some week of February I received this book. It was really a sweet moment for myself and that book, knowing the fact that I love wrestling, Shawn Michaels and anything connected with them. When I held it in my hands I felt like I'm on cloud nine. It was a blissful ignorance. It was something like you've worked so hard just to win a championship in a game. I was totally happy. On my first night reading the book I finished up reading the first 50 pages STRAIGHT. There were no breaks, nor short pauses. I read them straight. It was not any longer 'till I finished reading the whole book. I truly love this book, everything about it. Aside from the fact that it's all about the life of Shawn Michaels, it also feels amazing that you can learn something really good about it. If you were to ask me, I'd say that this could be an inspiring and life-changing book in some way.
