27

Dear 27-year-old me,

Hello there!

I had a rough, sad day today and I'm just wondering how you are. I have my period (does your monthly visitor come regularly now?), I'm feeling pretty emotional and I didn't feel like working today, but I'm pretty sure you've surpassed all this so here I am just going on with life.

What have you been up to lately?

Are you still working for same network doing the same thing? Are you now a reporter, or have you taken your master's degree and then tried applying as one? Do you still live here or you have migrated to another country like some of your friends?

 Are you still in touch with Chrisannielle and The Jeep? Are you still as friendly as I am now that you've gained much more friends?

Do you still meet up with your mama and papa? Is Kuya Noel married now and is Kuya Albert almost done with priesthood? 

Are you married to the man I love right now and have two wonderful kids with him?

Are you still who I am now; do you still laugh so loud and not care whoever can hear it? Do you still do crazy things and not regret them after? Do you still cry or smile as much as I do now? Have you done right things in your life? Have you done the things you've really wanted to do?

Are you the person you've always wanted to be when you were still at my age?

No matter what your answers are to my questions, there's one thing I want to be sure of.

I hope you are happy. Truthfully, honestly, f*cking happy.

And always remember that no matter what you've become and who you are, I will always love you.





P.S. I hope you're much wiser now.

Love,

21-year-old me
