its 626am et. im sitting here in my hotel room at the westin in atlanta. on the top floor looking out at the most beautiful view of atlanta. i woke up an hour ago feeling so good and so relaxed. something i havent felt in a long long time...like years. im so happy with everything and everyone in my life right now.

my family is awesome...last saturday i took my cousin's kids with me to my dad's company picnic. one of them is my godkid who i so adore and love to death. we spent half the time melting cotton candy on our tongues to see who can get the brightest pink/blue color when we should've been watching the baseball game. it was so much fun. these girls are so innocent and so pure...they have no cares in the world and all we did was laugh. granted, they were teasing me and one of them punched me in the eye...haha...its okay though. please note that they're 7 and 9 years old and im 25. my dad and i drank beers during the game and just sat there and chilled...that was great. i love my papa. my mom was just enjoying the girls and i can see that shes ready to be a lola. my kuya and ate my are great and so are my cousin rich and his girl amy...i see them during the softball games because me and archie and richie play on havoc together. i feel pretty lucky that we get to spend time playing a sport together.

my friends are awesome...my college friends, my girls and my new batch of friends (peeps from softball) are loads of fun. benny and i are catching a soxs game on monday with another couple who met through softball. matapalooza is coming around the corner and so is our september babies birthday bash. a few of us are turning 26 and im one of the lucky ones. blech. haha.

my i/t career is f'in awesome. im moving up to places i never thought i would have the opportunity. my feet are still wet. ive only been working for 4 years. but hey, working hard pays off and i cant wait to see where my career takes me.

the suns coming up and i think its time to change and go run.

im so happy right now.

we are all happy for you...just understand that life is a challenge and that is what makes life worth it...and although you are "happy" right now, it shouldn't be a fleeting feeling...it should be sustained because of all the things you have going on...take one away, lean on the other five things; take two away, lean on the other four things...trials and tribulations will occur, bumps in the road, and heartache and heartbreak...but that is what makes the happy times all the better and worth fighting for...just know that you don't have to ask god to take it away...he has no control, he merely provides you the opportunity, whether good or bad...its all within yourself...and all within your control...
