Ode to My Family

There's a saying that I believe everyone of you have heard at least 2 times in your life: "You don't really know what you got 'till it's gone"

I realized I've wasted my time during my first year, and I'm paying for the consequence these past few months, quite dearly I might add.

But I also realized something else: A loving family...
My parents, my uncles, my aunts, my sisters (or cousins, like I said on previous posts, whatever makes you happy)... Nearly all of them wished me for the best so that I could pass this final moments of college...

I never told anyone of them, but... when they cheered on me.. I hid and shed some serious tears... Part of the reason is because I know that up there, my uncle that we've lost, also wishes the same thing...

God.. I don't know how to thank you for giving me this family...

I won't let them down again this time. I'm going to end this 6 and a half year war, once and for all.
(yes, I know there will be another war right after this, don't worry)

Now, as a parting gift for today, my ISML votes
