11/11/2011 11:11 PM Wishes Do Come True ♥

Whoever thought we'd all be lucky to have lived this day? Surely all of us are familiar with the whole idea of 11:11 and how it is believed to be the most effective time to make a wish, but having the opportunity to ask for something you really really really desire on November 11, 2011 (also known as 11/11/11) at 11:11 AM/PM seemed so magical... well to me at least.

And that probably was my biggest mistake today, I made such a big deal out of it. Having no classes today made me believe that today, even just for today, I'll be lucky. But no, things have not gone the way I wanted them to be. Sure, I had a good night's sleep, and a shopping spree (well, sort of) but that is not what I really wanted.

Being in college was way more difficult than I thought it would be, but it was most especially difficult for us. I was undoubtedly absolutely positively sure of what I wanted to wish for: to spend a day with him. I know this was a long shot wish but I just really had to give it a try. In the end, I just end up disappointed once again. To add to this, the phone call I received that night was not special at all, it even reached the point that I wanted to sleep already.

After 17 years of waiting (well, not really but you get the idea, i really waited a long time for this), this is what I get? This is my magical 11/11/11 11:11 experience? While others were somewhere out there releasing paper lanterns to the sky with their wishes on it, I am stuck in this house making a petty blog on how much I pity myself for not making the most out of this day. It only happens once in a lifetime and I blew it.

But while I was thinking of what to blog about, I suddenly remembered our story. And right then and there, it hit me. So what if I did not get to spend the day with him, at least I still have him in my life. I guess there are a lot of girls out there wishing for someone to come along and something to last until the end, but I am satisfied with what we have. I have someone to share my day with, someone to pick me up when I'm on my lowest point, someone who calls just to know how I am doing, someone who deals with my bipolar-ness without complaint. No, we are not in a relationship due various reasons but I'm okay with that. All along, I've already had my wish and there's nothing that I could ask for more. My epic 11/11/11 11:11 wish might not come true anytime soon, but I can still make it happen. Maybe I don't have to wait for 11:11 everyday because I can talk to God anytime of the day. After all, prayers are as or even more powerful than wishes. At the end of the day, I regret absolutely nothing. So for everyone that had the best day, good for you. But for those who didn't, do not lose hope. Keep wishing and praying, you never know what the future holds . :)

To the boy who makes me both happy and sad, puts up with all my shit, brings out the best in me, and makes me believe in something magical: thank you! ♥
