BIDDING 2009 GOODBYE

Year of the Earth Ox

Definitely a very remarkable year for me. I've been through a lot and the lessons I gained nevertheless transformed me into a much better (and more workaholic)person. It had been a constant struggle of setting and putting my priorities in order, achieving my dreams, getting what I really want, letting go of the past, learning from pain and getting up with my two feet once again. My tears and laughter were manifestations that I've felt almost every possible human emotion which makes me say "It's one of my best years ever!!" :)

Here are some of the things I owe to 2009. :)


1. I realized I actually look good with a short hair. ;p

2. I was able to focus on my major subjects! SAD and OJT, I still have you to inspire me to do well in school. ;)

3. I got to travel to Lucena! All expense paid by ATENEWS! :))

4. I made a lot of great friends this year!! ( from CEGP, ATENEWS, CS Division, AdDU and a whole lot more!)

5. Ehem, I became EIC for ATENEWS! XD But then again, as the popular line from the movie Spiderman goes, "WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITIES..."

6. It opened my eyes to the real status quo of the society. And with this knowledge, I MADE MY STAND! :D

7. It taught me so much about getting my life back and building it all over again.

8. It made me realize that LIFE GOES ON. The world waits for no one.. we all have to go with the changes.

9. I MOVED ON.

10. I AM EVERYDAY A BETTER PERSON BECAUSE OF EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED THIS YEAR!

Ciao, 2009!! Hope 2010 will only get better!!! THANK YOU LORD FOR THIS YEAR! :)

CHRISTMAS insight. :)

It has been my 19th Christmas for the record.

As always, it's my favorite holiday. I actually revealed this in my column for the Nov-Dec 2009 ATENEWS issue but since it's gonna be released come January, I'll reveal it again here. :)) I love Christmas not only because it gives me a break from my draining, disheartening school life but also because I could feel that for once, people try to be happy and make other people happy, too. Gift-giving, decorating, partying--those can attest to what I just said.

On second thought, it must be everybody's favorite holiday. Although it can't be denied that it entails spending lots of money (whew, some even say they spend their 13th month pay to the last cent just for Christmas!) , it is definitely worth it. After all, it's for the family and friends whose presence really matter.

However, with recession and all sort of calamities the country encountered this year, I can't help but wonder how people still flock to the mall when we've been through a lot. Seems like the recession don't hit us that much.

It's a good thing actually, considering that we are still able to buy nice stuff for Christmas. Only that we should be practical enough to spend on things that would really make our celebration more essential, and scrap the unnecessary. :)

Oh well, Christmas still shines even brighter because we realize it's for Christ. :)

JUMPING INTO THE BANDWAGON

Lately, the number of friends I have who keep a personal blog increases over time. It's like a trend and everyone rushes to keep up with it. Some of them do it just for pure fun and for self-expression. Others do so because they earn from it.

I used to give a cold shoulder about it, saying I don't really have ample time to maintain a blog. Even now, I'm almost sure that I can't really update this site whenever I want to. Actually, I maintained a blog in my Friendster account, but since FS has been long way forgotten, no one really gets to read that and I personally don't like it now. So what made me decide to create this?

Well, aside from the constant prodding from my friends, saying that I do well with this (ehem..hahaha), I realized that there's too much inside my head right now. And it creeps up inside that sometimes, I find it hard to sleep at night. So I decided to put into words what I think, what I feel, what I believe...

But for now, I'll just keep this first entry this simple. I still have my mind focused on a lot of things. Ciao! good night, world...
