A New Year..

I know it’s halfway thru January already..But it’s never too late to write about the year that was..Like my post last year, let’s see what happened to my resolutions first..

2010 Resolutions

1. Look for a New Job. Well, what do you know, I did land a new job last May 2010. Like what i said in my post last year. =) lucky me..

2. Buy a Car. I sure am lucky coz I did bought a new car. My Christmas present to myself. hihihi

3. Mag-ipon for travel. Well, mga plans ko to travel nde cya natupad. Pero i didn’t need to save up to travel coz  I got to travel without spending! I got to go to San Francisco CA, Washington DC, Maryland, Pennyslvania & Virginia USA. Sama na din natin yung stopovers ko on the way to east coast & back, Atlanta GA & Minneapolis. All thanks to my new job..=)

4. Exercise. Uhmmm..dito yata ako fail. The only exercise i got to do last year was all the walking I did going to & from the office(US & PH)..tsk tsk

5. STOP. I did stop. Thanks to my trip to US, it somehow helped me get over all this nonsense..

6. Clean up my closet. I didn’t get to clean up my closet last January but when i got back from US i did get to buy a new closet & got to fix up my room. But am not yet done..=)

2010 has been a really good year for me. All my resolutions has been fulfilled. Wel except for the exercise part but hey 5 out of 6 is not bad at all.=) Now let’s see what i have learned & thankful for last year..

1. I learned that perseverance & hard work really does pay off.. just look where I am now.

2. I’m thankful for the new friends that i got to meet & became a part of my life. i love gaining new friends. Friends has always been an important part of my life..=)

3. I discovered NCIS, Criminal Minds & get to love Family Guy & love Bones more. in short i became more of a couch potato than ever..hahahaha

4. I’m thankful for all the blessing that i received and for having another good year. Hope it all keeps on coming..=)

my 2010 Resolutions:

1. Exercise. Exercise. Exercise. well nde lang naman exercise ang gusto ko gawin. I’m also gonna try playing Ultimate Frisbee. =)

2. Save up. Yeah i need to fill up my savings for my future..naks future daw oh..haha

3. More Travel. well yearly may US trip ako(that is kung andun pa din ako sa current company ko di ba, which i hope will be for at least a long time..). So this travel that i want to have is for leisure with family or friends. I’m not gonna say any plans..baka nde pa matuloy eh..hahaha

4. Go out more. now na may wheels na ko, imma try not to be an introvert. I need to go out once in a while para naman mameet ko naman ang future man in my life..hehe

5. Learn more about photography. Since i already have a Lomo camera, kelangan ituloy tuloy ko na ito. Have to attend photography classes. =)

 

I think that’s it for now. I’ll just add some more if ever some other things comes to mind. =) Happy New Year y’all! =)

so that was our first night..mahaba-habang kwentuhan pa ito..therefore..pause muna..have a break..have a kitkat..lolz

*sigh* sadness…

i’ve been staring at the screen for a long time before i got to think of what to say..so many things have happened in a short span of time and i don’t know where to start..and eto na naman ako..natitigilan..nde ko malaman ang isusulat ko..*sigh* first..i retract what i said about having gimiks every weekend..because after our Christmas party/2nd Reunion nde na kami nagkakita kita uli ng mga hs friends ko..i attempted to set up a get-together..unfortunately, puro mga busy na sila..kanya kanya na muna..well except for me, who went back to being the introvert that she was..nawalan na naman ako ng reason to be out on a saturday night..at first nahirapan ako..sobrang nasanay ako to be always out on a saturday night that i’m really getting bored out of my mind & dunno what else to do on a night na dati is spent hanging out with friends..sobrang na-sad talaga ako..parang natapos lang ang reunion…pati ung get-togethers namin nawala na din..but what can i do naman di ba..so i went back to my usual Friday gimiks with my other friends..

one other thing is Chandler..i’m giving up on him..yeah you read it right..ayoko na..i’m tired..i don’t wanna waste any more time on something that i feel na wala naman kararatingan na..i was really taken aback by the sudden change in him..from being this very sweet guy to being this very distant person..i have no idea what happened and when i asked him ang layo ng sagot nya..so that leaves me so clueless..yun pa naman ung pinaka-ayoko na feeling..so i gave him a few days..bakasakali lang na bumalik pa whatever we had..there was a time na i thought it was..pero it was just one day..after it..kaput na..so i said to myself..stop it..last week there was a party..get-together kaming friends..i really dolled up..i want him to see & remember me looking like that kasi it will be the last time that he’ll be seeing me..he’ll be talking to me..because i won’t talk to him na talaga..well just for now..kahit pano we’re still part of the same group of friends..i can’t ignore him totally without our friends asking too many questions..basta i just want to disappear on him..for now..sabi sakin nung isang guy friend ko, wag daw ako magtago..pano if we’re thinking the same thing..malay ko daw nagpapamiss lang pala cya..and thinking of what he really feels for me..kasi cya ganun daw cya before..merong mga guys daw talaga na sweet sweet then after some time biglang mawawala kasi they are thinking of what to do next na..so now, what do i have to do? wait on him?! till when?! i’m tired of waiting..all my life all i did was wait..*sigh*

and now i just learned that Nathan already has a girlfriend..shucks! a year passed..and i just let him passed by me! ugh! am so stupid kasi..if only i can turn back time..if only that night nde umurong ang dila ko at nde ako napipi..*sigh* what might have been…*sigh*

when will it be me?! *sigh*

To sum it all up..nde naman pala masyadong failed ang new year’s resolution ko last year..lalo na ang #1..am so really proud of that..haha so before i wrote my resolutions for this year…magsegway muna ko on what i have learned & thankful for last year..

1. i learned about plurk from Bloom & Bryce..and i’m so thankful for this kasi i get to earn new friends..mga friends ni bloom & bryce na naging friendships ko din..and naging friends din si bloom & bryce..oh di ba ang ganda…

2. i’m so thankful at naisipan namin mag-organize ng HS reunion..mas naging close kami ng mga hs friends ko na i didn’t get to see na..ngayon everyweek na kami magkakasama..we all reconnected..well, i got to reconnect with them..lalo kami naging close ni Liz and i got to be close with Enid..sana lang magtuloy-tuloy ang mga get-together namin kahit na tapos na ang planning for the reunion..on the downside..medyo na-neglect ko naman ang college friends ko who have always been there for me since college..pero i’m already making it up to them naman..nde ko sila pwede basta iwan lang dahil labs ko mga un at sila ang mas nakakakilala sakin..

3. I’m thankful for being here at my current project..as of today 1 year na ko andito..i have learned many things here..i gained new friends here..kaya medyo mahihirapan ako umalis..although i can still find a way to have a get-together with them once in a while..

4. hmmm..what else..i’m thankful for giving me another year..parang i celebrated my birthday 100x yata last year..ewan ko ba i’m just happy to celebrate my birthday..i don’t care if i aged another year..sobrang thankful lang talaga ako..i can say that 2009 was one of the best year for me..hopefully 2010 will be so much better…can’t wait to see what’s in store for me….
