A Note to Tiu

I was reading Chris' blog then I saw this comment written by: 'Patty :)'. I felt the urge to post it, because everything inside of it is true. [To girls like me, of course. :))]
"hmm.. my mood's so gloomy. weird.. well, maybe because it's sinking into my mind as the finals is fast approaching that it's your last playing year in the UAAP(probably the final 2 games, if you sweep the series).. that soon someone else would be ateneo's #17; that soon i won't be able to watch the most handsome & the coolest guard on-court dribbling that orange ball & shooting it through the hoop often beyond the 3-point arc; that soon there won't be funny banners with the playful "Tiu's" on them; that soon i won't be able to see those chinky eyes & immaculate smile of yours that simply leave me breathless; that soon this budding entrepreneur, consistent dean's lister, public servant, endorser & host(did i forget anything?) would be wearing a different jersey maybe with a different jersey #(depending on whether you'd pursue your basketball career in the PBA); that soon i'd be less excited in watching team ateneo play because my greatest inspiration isn't there anymore; that soon i'd only be seeing you regularly during saturdays(pinoy records) & monday nights(ripley's).. oh! there are so many things that are going through my mind that i can't express them all here.. i just feel so sad & helpless. this is a different feeling that i believe i haven't felt before. you inspire me in so many ways & you always lighten up my mood whenever i feel so down. i look up to you as a role model & as someone i truly, deeply & sincerely admire. i will definitely miss you, chris, we all will.. i wanna cry! aww. so dramatic! but true.. miss clarisse ong is the luckiest girl because she has your heart. i just pray that she won't hurt you & that you will always stay happy together. if destiny dictates it that you'd be together till death do you part, i hope you'd have a happy family with God at the center of your lives.. i just wish & pray that you be blessed more & more because you deserve it. i can't pinpoint any flaws in you, well maybe because i don't know you personally. many people say you're very accommodating & definitely not intimidating despite your popularity & all the success you've achieved. you've managed to keep your feet firmly rooted on the ground. you stay cool & calm even though the players from other teams are tough on you.. you're simply everything i've ever dreamed of. you're the bring-home-to-mom kinda guy(for sure my mom would be the happiest mother when i bring you home!).. boy-next-door. name it! every positive description fits you.. sigh. i hope after this UAAP season & even after years you'd still regularly update you blog. this is my only way of checking on you & knowing what you've been up to; i hope you could share more about personal stuff- including your family, friends, relatives, miss clarisse, etc.; i hope you'd have a grand fans day for all of us who are going gaga over you!; i hope, pray & wish that someday i can be with you & no one can bring us apart(yeah! now i'm really dreaming!).. as the song goes, "thank God i found you, i was lost without you.. my baby i'm so thankful i found you!" my life truly became more colorful & meaningful the moment i was aware of the existence of this man named CHRISTOPHER JOHN ALANDY-DY TIU..
from the bottom of my heart, a big THANK YOU for everything, chris. maybe you think you've done nothing, but you just mean the world to me. please continue being who you are, the chris we all knew & fell so deeply in love with.
i wish you happiness & good health now & always..
may team ateneo bring home the UAAP season 71 championship crown & may you be this season's MVP..
& may you always soar high & reach the farthest places..
God bless you. ily
