Marcy.
currently listening to:I Will Remember You/Sarah Mclachlan.
sometimes, you get so caught up in your own little life, your own little concerns-- that you forget about the bigger picture. the rest of the world.
today was a pleasant slap in the face, reminding me that there are more important things in life than going to the beach or baguio with friends, and the fact that i dont have enough money to buy myself a new pair of sneakers.
but so what? it isn't the end of the world.
meet myself, anne, carolyn (my sister), and ryan (carl's boyfriend). volunteers for the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
today, we hung out with Marcy, an 18 year old boy with leukemia. Marcy said he wanted three things the most: a component, to go to festival mall, and to meet Bayani Agbayani.
we were supposed to take him to the taping of Yes Yes Show last tuesday to see Bayani, and were supposed to take him to festival mall today to go to the arcade--but he had been feeling ill all week and couldn't leave the house. last night, he was rushed to the hospital because he was experiencing a lot of pain.
so today, the four of us went to him instead.
(ryan, marcy and myself)
thanks to the Foundation, we were able to give Marcy a component, a cd player, and a microphone (for videoke purposes, of course!)--and we were able to buy him P1500 worth of OPM cd's to keep him company as he rests in bed :) not only that, we plan to take him to festival mall when he recovers from his treatment! :)
and that's not all...
marcy and bayani!
something tells me that marcy had a good day today. and so did i. :)
yay. :)
