There's an event in our school this morning which was attended by the graduating batch of our college (and i'm one of them). The university conducted a recollection for us graduating students in our school's theater. It was a requirement for graduation that's why we are encouraged to go there. I thought this activity will be just an ordinary activity for me but the moment i stepped inside the theater and took a seat and participate in the activity, there's something different that will happen to me. Something that will be memorable in my life when me and the rest of the graduating batch step on the next chapter of our lives and see the real world behind classrooms and school gates. One activity done in this event is to write down three people that made a big influence in my life. At first try, i wrote my chosen 3 people... but i changed it at the back of the paper that was given to me. We are also instructed to put a word besides the name of that person that best describes them. After it was done, the facilitator asked some volunteers to share their choice and why they've chosen them in front of the crowd. I want to share what i've wrote but my eyes pulled me back to my seat and told myself that this was not the right place for that. Maybe the right place to share my thoughts about that will be thru this entry. That's the reason why i opened again my blogger account after a long long time. Maybe thru this entry i can touch lives and those lives will say that all things that are written here came from the heart.
The first one in my list is my mother, and the best word that describes her that i wrote is "Acceptance". I placed it there because my mom is the person who best influenced me in my life. She accepted me for who's the real me. She accepted how a man named Jhemz lives, letting me live life according to my way. She accepted my weaknesses and at the same time she appreciated all my strengths. She always supports me on whatever decision i made in my living because she believes that it will be the best for me and it will make me happy in my living. She also defends me from my father when my dad questions me on the way i dress, the way i fix my hair, and the way i live. She's always at my side when i need a comfort of a mother in times of depression and sadness. That's why I'm so proud of her as my mother for me and for my little sister, and as a wife for my dad.. because of her patience and love for us.
The second one on my list is my loving girlfriend, and the best word that describes her that i wrote is "Supportive". Compared to my past relationship, being with her made an impact in my life even though we are just starting in our long journey as partners. She's the one who's always there for me in times of laughter and tears. A special someone that always supports me in every decision that i make and the one who thought me how to act and live as a man. Someone who pulled me up from the grave of childhood and molded me into someone that will act as a mature one and will do the right thing to do. One event that i've remembered with her that will be one of our greatest days together is when me and the rest of my crew competed in our school's dance festival. She's there for me and gave me strength and confidence as she cheers for me as we danced on the dancefloor. Some of my friends called her a "stage girlfriend" because she was there to help me fix myself before the competition. She's my private nurse because she's always there to take care of me in times when i feel bad, like what happened after our performance. I felt severe muscle pains and i can't lift myself up. She went there to comfort me and that made me feel relaxed till the pains ran out. She's the second person who made a big impact and influenced my life. Maybe if i ddnt met her before, i won't be the Jhemz that the people are seeng right now.
Third to my list, but not the least, is my thesis groupmates, we call ourselves "Elite Hooliganz" and the word that i wrote that best describes them is "Brotherhood". They made an impact and influenced me a lot in my studies and also to my personal life. After long long years of study in college where i met many kinds of people, they're the ones who made me feel that "we're one family". As what i've posted before in my facebook wall, i found a family thru them. My brothers including their significant others, and my girlfriend with me forms a family. A family that will protect each other thru endeavors that they face. A family that will lend a hand when someone is in need of help with no questions asked. A family that will stand our grounds and shout with our hands raised "E-What?! ELITE!!!" A family that made me believe in my capabilities, made me believe i can do things. Eight individuals with different unique personalities merged together for one aim, that is to do everything we can to bring ourselves up to the stage and get our diplomas. Cheers to you my dear brothers. Stand your ground.
There are a lot of people who influenced my life but as what the instruction in the activity said, just 3. I didn't included God in the list because He's the center of my life, the center of my actions and all things that i achieved thru my life, i achieved it because He's always around. To my mom, Jane, to my girlfriend EC, and to my brothers mark,franz,alain,mckein,elmer,george,joshua, a million thanks to you for influencing my life and molding me to someone that you can be proud of.
Now i realized why my eyes pulled me back to my seat. Its because my eyes don't want my tears to fall in front of many people because of my emotions. Well i end up here. Although this post is quite long, i hope readers will read it to the end of the line of this post. I point out here... bounce.
