That was my first New Year's eve and New Year celebration away from my family. I thought I was going to bawl at the thought of spending it away from my mom and my siblings since we celebrate the New Year together, more than we do at Christmas Day. Surprisingly, I didn't. Haha. I underestimated myself because I was not as clingy as I thought.
But then I thought that whatever the circumstance is, as long as the people around you matter, it will still feel like home. Hence the "no-bawl" Media Noche with the Department of Pediatrics.

Not to mention, this is just the beginning. As I am planning to become an Orthopedic surgeon, I will be hanging around the hospital at these times because of firecracker related injuries. No pain, no gain as far as this cliché saying goes. That's something I have to live with since it's a part of what I want to become. There will be a "no more tears" New Year Celebration from here on out.
