Seemed like everything has been put into the right place and into the right time. Joal and I were just completely strangers, satisfied with being friends, but not until we caught each other's heart. We're not the only ones happy about the relationship but so are the people around us; And I'm indeed so overly proud of it!
As we turned ONE YEAR, my mind drifted back to the things and experiences we shared together. I realized that the past 12 mos. have been by far the most number of times I've watched movies in theatres (see movie photos), the most number of times I texted/called a single person in a day, the most number of times I was taken photographed of, hugged, kissed, called upon, everything. And of course, the past 12 months have been the year of travel for us both. We went to Boracay, Sagada, Baguio and Pagudpud, not to mention our long road trips in Tagaytay and Batangas.
I did not expect that we'd click this way. But we did...effortlessly. As a couple, I can not say anything negative. Perhaps we just both embrace each other's strengths and weaknesses or maybe because we're simply mentally attuned to each other: We both love travelling, eating, watching movies, talking, laughing, and walking fastly. To top it all, I can not remember anything we've fought or argued about.
Planning for our first anniversary together was not very hard for us to make. We both knew that we'd go out of town, we just didn't know where we'd celebrate it to. But as early as September, we purchased 2 RT tickets to Laoag after we got the news that Cebu Pacific had a promo. Since we've been hearing a lot of positive reviews about Pagupud on the net, we decided to spend our anniversary there, only a 3-hour bus ride from Laoag. Nothing could beat the enjoyment we had in Pagudpud. Seeing the sunset and the fullmoon was definitely exhilarating. So, what else can I ask for? Nothing could be more pleasurable than to watch the glorious sunset beside a gorgeous man in the world - Joal!
Thanks to my baby for the bliss that he brings thru his presence. We know that the strength of our relationship has been our binding force and is one that will never know an end. I will always look forward to our many more adventures and yet-to-be-planned trips. The greatest adventure of all, however, is that those we share together in love..and I will always cherish everything we've got no matter how small or grand it is.
I love him so much. I fear to be apart of him, and to lose him. I can not imagine my life without him, thus, I won't let go of him. He is my confidante, my shock absorber, my emotional cheerleader, my security blanket... and most of all, my bestfriend. I love him so much like I have never loved before. I love him more and more each day. Falling in love with him was the sweetest thing that ever happened to me.
And he means the world to me.
This is the cake I had Art Cakes, Glorietta made for us. They did justice on my design but it got messed a day before our anniversary...sigh! - anne valerie (14nov06)
