After how many years of creating noise only out of torotots, my grandfather bought a firecracker. I was really stunned that he bought one. It made me more excited and hyped that night, December 31st of 2010. Hours before that, we have already cooked the pasta, salad, etc. Everything was ready. At around 9:00pm, we arranged the table and set up our food. Then the news knocked all of us out.

"Wala na si Mike," mom said. My mother cried really hard that she almost lost her breath. For the first time in my life, I saw her cry really hard. Mike is my tito. He is my mother's brother.
It aint easy losing a loved one, and most of all, it aint easy seeing my mother cry that hard. So far, this has been the hardest and the most painful New Year's Eve.

Happy new year sweetheart! :) Hope you have a blast this year!
