ON LOVE
Ofcourse I have to write about it first because it has been really the highlight of my 2013. I found the "love that is worth fighting for". And found myself doing all the crazy, cheesy and weird things for the relationship. Making it the highlight of my year wasnt bad at all because it made me extremely happy. It has messed up, for so many times, but thanks to my amazing boyfriend who never gave up on us. So many to say, but my previous post and IG post will tell more about it.
ON FAMILY
My mom left for Qatar few months ago. I am left with my Tita and my Ate (border) at home and things have been very different. Most of the responsibilities, specifically on money management, have been thrown on me. It's quite a tough aspect but I am getting by. Maturity has really donned on me.
ON HEALTH
I am very proud to have lost the weight I have been dreading in for so many years since college. I have been jogging (on good weathers&non lazy days haha) and exercising as much as I can. I have been controlling my sweet tooth and gave up on rice and dinner for most days.
ON TRAVEL
I have been to Baler and La Union (twice) because of surfing! Surfing became my new interest for this year. The badass feeling of standing at the middle of the sea, pushing and balancing yourself up and having a successful ride back to the shore - totally amazing! Plus sharing this interest with your love interest makes it more fun. Also, I have been to Davao because of work -such an opportunity!
ON SELF
I spoiled myself on material things this year. This iPAD I am using right now, The Killers concert, clothes I just fixed, food trips and travels - were materialized because of my savings. I also spent of alone time to ponder on the miseries and wipe it out of blessings. I took risks based on selfish and selfless choices. My faith too a lie-low this year which I am sorry. There hasnt been a grand change this year, I have learned to go with the flow and enjoy the 2013 ride.
So whats up, 2014? Who knows! I can only HOPE.
ON LOVE.. Keep it stronger this year and for more years! Lessen the misunderstandings and push for more mature decisions. Make more meaningful memories with him is our goal together.
ON FAMILY.. I am not quite sure when my parents will come back here in Manila. But what I can really do is to keep the house in order.
ON HEALTH.. I swear on all the hot Victoria Secret models, I will be fit this year! The aim is to wear a bikini without hesitations. Stop all the lazy thoughts, kick myself out to jog and sweat more. Control the sweet temptations and eat green! Yeaaah.
ON TRAVEL.. Have more surf trips! Spend more weekends outside. Take roadtrips with friends. Which leads to my 2014 goal - travel internationally! Crossing my fingers.
ON SELF.. Keep improving - every year's note to self. To lay it down: make a career move -outward&upward. Bringing my old competitive leader-self in me. Take more risks but save up for the next years.
It was a good ride. Like surfing, I have reach the shore again. Time to paddle up back to center of the ocean, wait for the best wave and push myself up, balance through and enjoy the ride.
Hey 2014, you are bright!
