Ali kami magsawang maghost Wednesday dinners basta ali ya magsawang magluto e Ate Mikai. Hehe. Thanks for everything! Looking forward to spending another year with you! Ahluvu! Mishu! Mwah!
(…Hindi kami magsasawang maghost ng Wednesday dinners basta’t hindi magsasawang magluto si Ate Mikai…)

2005 has been a great year for me! There were lots of unforgettable moments from the immediate transition of being an innocent HS student to an open-minded college student. Thanks for being one of those who made the transition easy. I hope that this coming year as lots of surprises in store for us!... God bless! Be careful with the fireworks!

You know, I'm so happy to have you as a a friend. Hindi ito senti na text, I just want you to know how much I appreciate the friendship you gave me. I'm so happy, salamat!

As you all know, ‘nareformat’ ang aking phone just recently. I lost all of my Contacts and Calendar entries. So before it breaks down yet again, here’s a backup copy of 21 of the sweetest, mushiest, most meaningful, dramatic and touching messages sa aking phone, in chronological order. Sa mga friends ko na nasali dito, pasensiya na kung nabuking ang kabaduyan ninyo, hehe! Salamat sa lahat!
