does anyone realize what a year it's going to be for jordan brand. i think there is only one person that will understand, dante derrick david...daayyyymmm. this year will definitely be the year of bankruptcy for many. shoe release every single month with multiple releases. i'm definitely staying away. actually, maybe not. not crazy shoe shopping but just enough to keep me SANE and left with some money. this year will definitely test me to save, save, save and see how i keep up with my priorities.

on another note, looks like Philippines 2008 is going to happen. really getting excited to go.

REASONS:

1) mom is going
2) dee and her fam are going
3) first time to visit the home land
4) will be there during holy week
5) will meet my mom's side of the family
6) food, shopping, and fun

unfortunately, my dad ain't gonna be able to go. he's been a little sick in the past couple of weeks and he might be susceptible to getting even more sick. please pray for his health and pray that he gets well soon.

Philippines 2008

Ever since last year, Dianne has been encouraging me to go along with her and her family to the PI this year. I've been approved for vacation at work and things were all good. I really want to go and I've even asked my parents if they would like to go back home. Both my mom and dad agreed, but I'm still hesitant. And the main reason...WEDDING '09. Not saying this is a bad thing, but getting engaged really changed a lot of things. PRIORITIES, I guess is the main concern. You know it's really hard to save for a wedding!!!! Freaking aye. There's so much that I want to do as a single person, but I get so stressed out sometimes cause I really want to be able to have an awesome wedding with Dee! It's funny, cause this wedding stuff is freaking so weird and foreign to me. Dee talks about all this stuff and I just nod my head, not because I don't want to talk about it, but because I have no clue as to what or how I should respond. I guess it's the same way when I talk to Dee or others about nursing or cycling. So back to my main point. Philippines 2008. YES OR NO? I think I should really pray about this and determine what my priorities are.
