HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!
I celebrated Mother's day with my mom yesterday because today (Sunday), the family is just gonna sleep in and relax. Especially me. I need to save up energy for the week ahead. I'll explain in a bit.

Anyway, we the children (all children. So pretty much anyone who isn't a mom in my family.) planned a surprise party for all the moms. My uncle did most of the work. He got us to write letters of appreciation for our mother's. Y'know sentimental stuff. So we brought all the moms to my uncle's house. That was only the beginning of the surprise.

After a really really big dinner, we gathered in the living room and my uncle started things off with a little history behind mother's day. He then started talking about how important mothers are and how we should ALWAYS show our appreciation because we might not be able to in the future. After that, each mother got a little presentation from her children. My grandma was the first up. My aunts and uncles all read out these really sweet letters. Alot of us started to cry. When it was my mom's turn, I played the guitar while my sister read our letter. Gosh it was so sweet. My cousin's mom wasn't present to celebrate with us so she felt a bit sad. She was asked to read her letter out loud. What she didn't know was that my uncle had her mom listen in via long-distance hand-free phone call. When she finished her mom started crying over the phone. Then my cousin cried. Then my grandma started yelling at the speaker wishing everyone on the other end a happy day. *sigh* My uncle rules. This had to be one of the sweetest Mother's Days in history.

Now if it's not too much to ask, I want all of you to somehow show your mother that you love them and appreciate them for bringing you into this world and for taking care of you and raising you to be the awesome person you are today. Go on then.

Life is pretty carefree these days. Relations are good with the bandboys so we're all pretty mellow (which is the prime mood for music making). I seem to be the one holding the band together actually. They come straight to me to tell me what's on their mind because I like to listen. I'm quite level headed with music stuffs and if I were to ever quit, the band would fall apart. Pretty neat, huh? I've got quite the role sitting behind this kit.

I also don't have any worries over girl anymore. No relationship struggle or whatnot.

Now about relationships, I think I'll just stop trying for the moment. I'm not saying I'm giving up or anything. I'm just gonna ease out of the whole boyfriend/girlfriend game. For the time being, I'd rather work on just friendships with girls. Perhaps learn something, y'know? I look at the relationships around me and none of them are going as smoothly as people want them to. And I quite enjoy being as free as a crow. Look at me fly!

Now I can't promise that I'll stay in this "Single-pride cheery mood" forever. I'm bound to bitch about loneliness eventually. And since I'm not really trying it doesn't mean that should "something" happen, I'll do nothing about it.

Life is bound to throw a basket full of ingredients. It's up to me to make a delicious dish out of it.

Now I've been sitting here "awww-ing" at a friend's MSN pic. They're just the cutest little cartoons ever. I don't know who to explain it. I'm just in that mood right now. I'm even making up little love stories based on them. No real reason why but it doesn't matter now.

I've also been doing this ridiculous "shoulder shimmying" to whatever upbeat music plays while singing along. Can you tell I'm feelin' awesome?

I'm still pretty happy with how last Thursday's banquet went. I can't wait for piccies!

Heh. I know you think I'm just babbling on now. But trust me, all of it is relevant in one way or another.

Follow the day and reach for the sun!!

Cheers.
