Free Donna to Meet the Dolphins!

Ito na ang simula ng pagbabago. DAPAT.
Or else, my life would not be progressive as i've dreamt it to be.

Let's start small.

I grew up with Disney Princesses and Prince Charmings, talking dogs and pigs, and adorable seemingly harmless whales and dolphins. One movie, for instance, which i and my cousins were fond to watch repeatedly is Free Willy 1, 2, and 3. It doesn't fail to make me cry every time. I just love Willy.I hope he lives forever kahit pa fiction lang yun.






So, imagine my excitement when i learned that we will be having a field trip to Subic Ocean Adventure. I was in my 3rd year high school then. The night before our 2am pull-out, i was ready to go. More than ready that i could not get a sleep or even a nap. Anyway, i was feeling uneasy by that time, i had a slight cold and fever. Di ko namalayan kakahintay ko sa oras na umandar nakatulog na din pala ako. I was dreaming of dolphins. Too bad, that would be the only chance i could be with them because i woke up at 4am. I was hysterical, panicking because i am late. I was hoping the bus would wait for me. But in the end, for much too good to have i thought it would also be easy to lose. I didn't hope much. But Pa, who was guilty too kasi napasarap din tulog, was optimistic and convinced me to still go and check.
We went and confirmed i was really left behind. Pakonsuelo, ang sabi ng school guard hinintay pa ako ng isang oras.

I went hope crying, nagtatantrums. Sinisisi ang sarili, sinusumpa ang pagtulog, tortured of images of classmates enjoying the dolphins. When they came back, i couldn't ask them about their trip or even look at their pictures. For awhile, my name became known, si Donna Pasion na naiwanan ng bus. My friends said our teachers keep anouncing my name in hope someone would answer and say 'Present!'. Oh well, good thing my closest friends, 7 days, were their to console me, since they didn't plan on going for the trip in the first place.

BUT now, tomorrow. My togetherness with the dolphins would finally come true!

One check to my To Do Lists before i die. :D

Thank you, God.

(Magtitipid ako after, :D)
