#9 - 17 reasons why

He makes me feel okay.

I'm a certified Capricorn - an over-thinker. I always overthink things that it usually ends me up stressed, like having sleepless nights spending most of the hours thinking and thinking and still thinking.  Plus I'm also a pessimistic person (sad!) and I worry a lot. Although it's not emotionally and mentally helpful for me but it makes me feel okay - expecting the worst so that when it comes, it cannot impact me that much. Sometimes I feel this bad habit's affecting my health (of course, stress does!). Maybe this explains why I couldn't gain much weight ever since. I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.

Board exam dates are fast approaching and here I am, as expected, having too much stress and pressure and worries and negative thoughts running inside my head. Really, this is affecting me in all aspects! This is not your typical board exam because Chemists licensure examinations have a very low passing rate ever since. I don't know why is that. There are thousands of new licensed engineers or physicians or lawyers produced every year but only, like, 500 new chemists every year. Woooaaahhh!! Well, that completes my worries now.

But being as worrisome as I am, it feels good to have someone who makes you feel okay. I don't know but it really feels different now that he's here that he always knows what to say and somehow I feel better. And he never gets tired of listening to my pabalik-balik nga yaw-yaw about all my worries and fears and stresses. He's just there. He listens. He gives advice. He jokes. He makes fun of me. He makes me laugh.

He makes me feel okay.

And somehow, I feel okay.
