Bringing It Back

Posted in File Cabinet by Andrew de Vera on 27 December, 2009

So lately it’s been all 90’s hits for me. I have no idea why I’m listening to these nostalgic tracks but for some odd reason I still remember all the lyrics… haha! Like right now it’s BSB. Freakin’ the CD is amazing, I feel like crying, haha! Anyways it’s not even the 90’s, I take it back. It’s anything pre 2000. For some reason my buddy Gaab got me into Meat Loaf again. That guy for some reason has an epic/legendary aura about him, haha. To add to all this TSO is making an appearance too. Oddly.

So I’m back in Cleveland and it’s been so chill, I love it. I love seeing my family–especially my grandpa and the little one. It’s so easy/slow pace here compared to Chicago. Why is that? I wish I could come back here more often, but I know God provides when the time is right. So much food here, so much! Filipino food galore. We had some BA palabok the first night then lechon paksiw the next! New work out regiment when I get back, haha!

Family is awesome, don’t take any for granted people. My family is all over the place and it may be hard at times but family is family. Currently my mommy is in the Philippines, sisters in California, and the rest in Ohio. Got lots of vacation spots but for all of us being together at one moment… that’ll be a toughie. Nonetheless I thank God for all the times spent with family this past 2009. And not just my immediate family but family of friends and families that have taken me in as their own. 2009, thanks for everything. Cheers!
