A Series of Unfortunate Events

September 12, Wednesday. Kakakauwi ko lang kahapon at masaya na nakita at nakasama muli ang aking mag-ina.

A few days before I left for Thailand, there were a lot of bad news and annoying issues. I just ignored it and hope it will just naturally go away. At syempre, mahirap pumadyak ng may inaalala. Pero parang sinusundan yata ako talaga. Maalat ako. Siguro dahil malapit na. Sana naman lumipas na agad. Todong dasal ang kailangan.

First, the initial plan to join the track category was not approved. Buti na lang, na approve ang road race but without any allowance or supplies. Pagbalik na lang daw ibibigay ang allowance. Kaya kanya-kanyang diskarte na lang muna.

Second, annoying intrigues. Natsismis na naman ako at pinag-aaway pa kami ng isang team mate ko. I assured this person that the rumors are NOT TRUE. Natatawa ako pero naiinis din ako.

Third, mahirap makasalamuha ang mga taong oportunista, abusado, di mapagkakatiwalaan, at tirador. Sana hindi ito parang sakit na nakakahawa.

Fourth, a disturbing nightmare and insufficient sleep before a long and difficult race. As if a premonition of something worst is yet to come.

Fifth, ang pinakagrabe sa lahat. Naaksidente and pamilya ko. Exactly at the same time I was racing. Wala akong kamalay-malay na posible palang wala na akong balikan mag-ina pag-uwi ko. Mabuti na lamang at walang nasaktan. The car was hit from behind by an 18-wheeler truck. I hope NCT Transnational Corp will stand up to their name. Panindigan sana nila ang kanilang responsibilidad dahil hindi biro ang nangyari.

Lessons learned during the past week:

• Pray harder, work harder
• Appreciate my family more and every single moment I spend with them
• Iba-iba ang bawat tao. Mag-ingat lagi.
• Sa bawat bad na nangyayari may good din laging kasama  o paparating. Depende na lang yun kung paano tatanggapin. Kaya dapat lagi positive tulad ng next post ko hehehe
• Huwag na matigas ang ulo. Ipabunot na ang ngipin at wag nang antayin sumakit pa ulit. hehehe
