Ambushed

I did not expect today to be like this. First, the scary rain and the winds. Second, the blackout. Third and most importantly, the special time spent with Borbs' family.

I hate being unprepared for anything, but being ambushed by Borbs to be part of their family bonding ended up to be a pleasant surprise. Actually, I have wanted to spend time with his family for so long now, I just never thought I had the proper sense of self to face them already. You know, the thing about first impressions that come to last. Surely I did not want to be remembered as the girl their son/brother was seeing who needed Stresstabs and a heavy amount of sleep.

But like what I said, it was really a pleasant surprise. It was great spending time with his mom and his siblings. Talking to his sister who's also an Iska was super fun, as well. Borbs' family is so nice, warm and accommodating that I felt super welcome. Also, I actually learned a thing or two from them. Comes to show that sometimes, you don't always have to put your guards up. Who knows, things will turn out waaay better than you expected them to be--be it planned or not :)
