Eleven Days Till Her Debutante

Early this morning I woke up late I was shocked because as early as 3 or 4 in the morning I already turned off the electric fan. Ria usually wake up by six onwards, maybe the cold temperature made her sleep well. Mosquito coils are not allowed in my sister-in-law's room. This is where all their dura boxes are, their clothes might smell like smoke. They just left space for us to sleep, to prevent the mosquitoes from getting nearer we used electric fans. My kids don't want to use mosquito nets. Yesterday @katsuki29 classes were suspended. Bagyong Gener has landed in our country. But yesterday was very normal, except for the high tides that we everyday deal with. September 4 we evacuated to my in-laws house till now we're still here. I'm really shy that we need to bother them for us to survive.

Eleven days and I'll have a debutante but the 18 roses and candles are not in the list to happen. Nether I wasn't able to experience a debut but I attended some of my hubby's relatives. It was simple not extravagant but all meaningful and comes from the heart.

Like what we did to our daughter, she also knows our situation and priorities. Their studies, health and food are mostly needed. Because she's now in college her father bought her a laptop. It's required in their school. She's also a scholar in her father's company. But she is not pressured because there is no grade required to last long in that school. It's not a university but a private school. But she really wants to gain knowledge, she knew that one day she will change the cruelness of our lives now. And we are willing to wait, not to mention that we started waiting since she first breathe in her day one.

I couldn't forget her day one she almost got late because the boat we're borrowed by my brother-in-law and wasn't able to bring it back on time. @katsuki29 was yelling at her uncle with a teary eye. Good thing they were heard and she make in on time. Before her first day she told me that she was very nervous. The school was big and beautiful and my kids are used to government school.

In her mind she said that she did not belong in that kind of place. But I told her she was called because she deserves it. Her dreams are bigger than what she expected She also met a friend, but my daughter is not the kind that if you don't talk her she won't talk to you either. But Shane smiled at her like they were destined to be friends. She was generous, pretty and kind. Shane even treat Katsuki two or three times. Because of her Katsuki felt comfortable in the school and I wish their friendship will last long.
