We didn't plan anything for this year's Valentine''s. Earlier today, I agreed to a dinner with Krisna and Chen.

After our dinner, future hubs messaged me to get out of the house. I panicked. I forgot to message him about my dinner plans. Apparently, he was outside our gate to surprise me. I locked the gate before I left, so obviously, he couldn't get through. I was really sorry. I thought we agreed to see each other on the 15th.

I asked if I could see him for a minute or two. He dropped by our dinner place and gave me a cake and my fave goldilocks marcaroons. So sweet of him. After work, he rushed to buy these for me. 

Happy Valentine's Tay!!! I love you. ♥️

The Boys in the Band 2020

 

I loved the entire dialogue of the characters. They somehow made it work. In only, one setting, the characters delivered their lines well. Wow. 

Daily Dose of Sunshine 2023

 

Watched this drama over the last week. It was a cry fest. Every episode would trigger your tears. Mental health is not something people should take for granted. It is very important to stay mentally healthy. 

The female lead is a nurse assigned in the psychiatric unit of the hospital. There, she encounters unique cases of patients suffering from mental illnesses. Every episode will feature how the patients acquired the illness, to the diagnosis, to the treatment, towards the journey of healing. All is good until, the female lead becomes sick herself. The latter half of the series focused on her journey to become better. 

I really enjoyed all twelve episodes of the series. I really appreciate works that showcase the importance of mental health and the support and love of people around you.

It was a Thursday afternoon, when I decided to stop by a store to buy something to drink. I had merienda inside the car.  I randomly messaged him if he was available and if he wanted to come and join me. I called and waited for ten minutes, but he didn't show up. I decided then, to drive home. Few seconds of driving and I saw him. I stopped the car and waited for him. As we were chatting, I looked at his fingers and frowned. I didn't like that he wears a lot of rings. He jokingly took out the rings and gave them to me. I took them and put them inside my pocket. I said,  "Ako ni ibaligya to buy one for myself. Hahaha". He replied, " Haha, ambi na ba, kani lang oh." He pulled a red pouch and took out of it, a ring. The boyfriend was serious. I thought he only joked about buying it last Sunday and how much it cost. I demanded him to show me the receipt, and it was real. He was laughing at my reaction. The boyfriend was going to propose. Right then, and there, inside the car, he asked me, "Will you marry me?". I replied with a nod and a nervous smile. I never thought that I would ever experience a proposal in this lifetime. I wasn't even sure if I can handle marriage and the responsibilities that come with it. We were talking about "minyo2" after we got back together. I thought he was going to ask my parents first before proposing, but he messed up our timeline. He argues that he didn't want to loose the ring and always keep it in mind, he might as well give it to me as soon as possible. So, he just randomly decided to give it today.  Just like that. I now, have someone to call future hubby. While driving home, and glancing at the ring on my finger, I thought to myself, if I deserve this. This person, his promise, his future with me, and the ring which, apparently costs a lot. I have these thoughts to keep in mind. 

First Love (2022)

 

I spent the last weekend binge watching this Japanese series. I loved the way they told the story. The smooth transitions from the past to the present and vice versa were done nicely, you would not be confused with how the events turned out.

The two main  leads showed the purest of love. They were each other's first loves. The characters showed the sincerity they felt towards each other. Hays... The way the male lead looks at the female lead, you can really feel his love and sincerity.
