The Life of the Pizookie Monster

Single Life

It has definitely been awhile, but I’m sure I can adjust.

Someone I’m thankful for…

His name on my phone is “Bestest Brother Kuya CAC”. He wasn’t really a part of my life until the end of my sophomore year, mainly my junior year. It started with training and preparing me to take his place the following year, as Drum Major. He practiced with me, and mentally as well as physically prepared me for the journey ahead. From the beginning, I wanted to stay focused on just that, training for Drum Major. But it became so much more. Before I knew it, I was calling him “Kuya”. A title I reserved for only for my blood-related cousins and the one other who has been in my life since I could retain my memories. He treated me as if I were his real, blood-related sister. He protected me, and comforted me, every duty (haha “duty”) you would expect an older brother to do for his little sister. As the school year came to an end, I was afraid with college coming and my senior year kicking off, we wouldn’t have the time anymore to tend to that relationship.

I prepared myself for the end of a chapter. He would fill his schedule and only be there whenever he could. I would keep myself busy with band practices. And I felt in my mind, that he was the one leaving. But it turned out to be the opposite. Every night, no matter how late, he found the time to text me good night. And not one those texts was only a page long. It was like…5 messages minimum (goodness). But most of the time, I was cramming in homework or already asleep. So, I didn’t reply. But he always texted me. Even without my replies. He was still there for all the times I needed him. If it was on a random day in the middle of a random week, he still made the time. He came to almost all my parade competitions. And helped me to relax with stretches and breathing gym. 

My point is…this Thanksgiving I am thankful for Austin Bacong. My brother, in my heart and in my mind. Thank you Kuya. Even though those two words can never express my true gratitude and as little as I show it, I am truly blessed to have someone like you in my life. You’re like my sanity and my strength when I’m losing to my over-whelming life. Thank you for being a part of my life as crazy as yours is. I bet I just make it crazier (: 

Enough Distractions.

Its always about the music. Never forget that. 

So…I made a tumblr. But I forgot which email and password I used. And I was too lazy to figure out which one it is. But here I am now. And band camp starts in a week. yay me.
