CARLO is our STAR

March 14, 2008

I am now working on the premise of my first ever short film (hopefully). Ok, I am not yet done with it and I’m not so sure if I’m going to push through with the subject, but I am hoping that one day, I will be one of the first to tackle about the “reality” of having an autistic family member – the joys, the pains and most of all, the sacrifices.

I dedicate this project to my family most especially to my inspiration, Carlo.

So maybe some of you are wondering  : How’s Carlo?

 

It’s been a month since my brother left the country. Lolo gave me some pictures of Carlo and I have uploaded them on my multiply site.  It seems like he’s well-adjusted there and everyone loves him up to the extent that my mom doesn’t need to buy some food for him because Carlo is being loved by our mama’s friends and they keep on giving him some foods like spaghetti, corned beef, pizza, burgers etc.

He’s also studying already. He is presently enrolled in a public school for special children and my, he loves the place! His tuition fee is taken care of by the government and a school service is also available. He usually sits beside the driver haha :p

 

Yesterday, Mama received Carlo’s report card with a butterfly on the cover. Here’s what the teacher wrote in the comments section:

“Carlo is really a star. He loves to sing and entertain everyone. His smile makes our day complete!”

Carlo. The boy who is destined to be a star. The boy who loves to sing. The boy who loves to entertain. The boy who smiles like Jollibee. The boy who is oh-so-sweet. The boy who loves to eat. The boy who made my day complete for the past twelve years.

I promised myself to maintain a blog about Carlo before he left. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to  update it and now I feel guilty.

Carlo, I do really love you and I really wanna be with you. I wanna hug you and kiss you once again.

But I have my own dreams, my own ambitions, my own life.

I know you’re waiting for me. Don’t worry, one day, I’ll be with you again. One day, I’ll be in England.

I’ll be in England with you and Mama dear :)
