Resolution Schremolution

So this year started a few days ago and up until now, I still haven't gotten my list of resolutions yet. This morning, I decided to kick the "habit" of formulating resolutions at the start of the year and just enjoy whatever life throws my way. Last year was pretty brutal and I beat myself up for not living up to a list so ambitious, my 6th grade adviser would've been proud. 2015 ended great, though, so I've been really thankful for that but, yeah... 2016 is the beginning of resolution-free New Years for me - not even "Be more optimistic/positive" - so yay for no expectations!

Bring it, Universe!

Welcoming 2013 with arms wide open.

2012 would've been a big blah if November and December didn't turn out the way they did. November was the lowest point of last year but December proved to be the superhero and saved the day - err, year! If we were in a basketball game and were teammates, I would've patted 2012 hard on the back (and on the ass because basketball teammates always do that to each other and it looks fun) for the spectacular end-game performance. Come-from-behind win ang peg!

I am excited for 2013 despite not having set any goals (yet) and passing up on the resolutions. I take this as me, grabbing all the great opportunities that will be presented this coming year. I haven't done this in years and maybe this is exactly what I need to turn things around.

Happy New Year, everyone!

Confession #3 (2010 Resolutions)

Okay, we're almost halfway through the year. I can't wait to delete/edit anything from my 2010 resolutions list so I'm doing it now, instead of next month. I wanna see my progress ASAP.

This blog entry was posted in both Multiply and Facebook last January 9, 2010.

I know it has been a week since the new year kicked in but I had to go through that first week to finalize my resolutions for 2010.

(Will be listing the resolutions in no particular order.)

1. Go to Boracay. Yes, I'm a Bora virgin. --I WILL BE GOING SOON! Malapit nang mawala sa list itoooooo!
2. Smile more, cry less. Though I started the year with tears in my eyes, I would want to think that that experience will be the first and last for 2010.
3. Invest in a business. Malia's planning to put up a TPC-ish business in Malolos. I like that idea and I'd want to work there during the weekends to keep my mind off of things.
4. Be more open. I've been holding back a lot in 2009. I've kept almost everything to myself to the point that I'd stare off into space and a single whisper was enough to make me jump from where I was sitting.
5. Start jogging again. I've been getting a lot of praises with the weight I've lost but I'm not physically fit. At all.
6. Listen to other genres of music. Hiphop, Rap and RnB make me feel good but I'd have to listen to songs with substance. Hahahaha! :))
7. Be selfish. Okay, not in the bratty or mean kind of way but I'd have to make time for myself now 'cause I WILL tie the knot within this decade. I won't have time for myself by then. Right?
8. Watch more movies. Just 'cause.
9. Read. It has been a while since the last book I've read. Bad. Real bad.
10. Spend more time with friends. I haven't exactly been MIA last year but I don't think I've been spending quality time with them, either.
11. Blog more. This will be especially hard 'cause the laptop's rarely home and the desktop sucks balls.
12. Work hard, party harder. 'Nuf said.
13. Open a savings account. Because I have to be responsible.
14.

I left number 14 blank because I might have to update this list.

When the clock struck 12, I took a shot of tequila, cracked open a bottle of San Mig Light and lit my cigarette. I told myself this is going to be a great year. (Tejada, 2010)

(After editing entry)
Okay, so far there's little progress is but I'm positive that by the end of this year, na-cancel out na lahat ng entries. :) That actually felt good. At least I know that I am going somewhere and the things I plan for myself are actually becoming true. I love thiiiiiis. :)
