Starts my year off right and with a "BANG"!

First and foremost, I would like to extend my many THANKS to all of my co-bloggers who managed to greet me at the final day of last year. Thanks guys for remembering and for leaving notes / comments on the passed months...

Pretty sure, my last year have been so remarkable not merely because of my travel experience but because you made my blog more readable, hehe. I mean, kung wala kayo, walang babasa nitong mga anik - anik ko dito, oh diba! lol.

Fireworks @ MOA 2012

But sincerely, I started my blog when I was turning 25 @ 2010. {patay pati edad ko nahalukay na}. Since then, last year lang naging mas aktib ang pag popost ko, naging regular. Dumami na rin kasi ang nag i-inspire sa aken at nag spread out na rin ang mga taong nagbabasa nitong blog ko. {nagbabasa nga ba o naninlang lang ng ganda ko, I really don't know.} hehehe.. Boom lang talaga ang blog ko last year {talaga?!} Eh, panu pa yung iba jan diba! hehe, kayo na ang halimaw sa dami ng comments, followers at coinbank savings dahil sa pagba blog. So for all of these, thank you and let us all face the 2012 with a BANG!!!

The country has been in turmoil for some period of time last year but no matter how the year was, we should not seize to dream and to be thankful, of course!

I don't wanna be sound like a skeptical because for us the year have just begun. For me, NEW YEAR is something that we all must always looking forward to. Sabi nga nila, new year means new Hope, new Life, a right time for a new year's resolutions and a new You!

No, I did not prepare a new year's resolution kasi hindi ko rin naman magagawa. I am not that person who would waste time doing such list but in the end, it cannot be pursued. It'll only turn me off though and I might just feel disappointed.

Pero I have an ultimate bucket list of my new plans and new life endeavors which definitely will lead for not just a new ME but a BETTER me! {hope so}

1. Buy an organizer/ planner. Just recently, I was scouting this bookstore to buy a colorful one. Something's light carrier and helpful for my daily routine. To remind me also that these things on my list should have given priority. 

BDJ 2012 planner, though it was not that lighter

*I want to start this year sooo right and organized that is why I bought this planner for a more detailed year  ahead of me.. So I can have no more excuses sa mga  duties and responsibilities na dapat ko i pursue! hehe. I have now my checklist.planner na so FAB.... loveit!

2. Be a more positive thinker! Because I believe that if you are, you can do everything. Have patience and faith in HIM too...
3. Save save save more. I will try my best not to buy my own "caprice". I want to spend when it is for my family especially to my parents.  I would like to spend eating and traveling with them. Gusto ko ma experience nila ang masasarap na bagay sa mundo despite that they're growing old.

4. Read a good book/ blog post everyday. Read it so I can dig in more precious things in life. Each day, I'll make sure to finish one page or one interesting post in one sitting and NEVER skip even a single word on it.
5. Earn on my own.  I'll start to do business on my own. Little by little.

6. Be MORE organized.  I am very particular with my stuffs. I always wanted to be neat. I am very particular with my things especially within my  working area. 

7. To take an out of town trip. ALL BY MYSELF. As in alone. You can suggest guys where is the safest place in Philippines I can hide.
8. Buy {ZOOOOOM} lens for my cam. I am dying to buy one.
9.  To file my 2nd SSS loan.  
10.  Lastly but not the least, make it a point to attend church's obligations.
