Preps break

To help Gail ease out of the stress he’s been feeling lately, I took out my trusty little black moleskine (sashaaal. pero i got it from last year's Christmas party, di ako bibili nun ang mahal!) last night and told him that we had an activity. Let’s write our faith goals for 2011.

While we were listing, I said “Oh I want an Olympus Pen!” And then, like a Christmas light, Gail beamed and said “Really?!” Because he wants one too. Well I like it because it’s vintage-y (for the kewlness) and handy (for the practicality), and because Gail told me it has all these kewl features that photographers dig. Now I’m quite sure mapapasaakin ka next year, Olympus Pen. Haha!

It was so refreshing to get out of all the preps and look forward to the next year. We don’t have big dreams as of the moment. I told Gail to think of more faith goals, sayang libre naman. Haha! But all we were able to fill was the teeny page of my notebook.

We finished daydreaming in faith as Gail finished the donut and the waffle. If it was the faith goals that made him happier, or the food he had, I don’t know. Haha. He took me home and it hurt as always. But in eight weeks, one of the biggest faith goals we set for ourselves will come to pass, and that’s what I’m holding on to. Until then we’d have to order food or hot cocoa to have some place to sit, and then say the longest goodbyes.
