Bye 2008, Welcome 2009.

Blessings of 2008. It's been a good year for me there are so many blessings that I always manage to forget that's why I thought I had a bad year. So remembering them now makes me feel happy about last year. Here are some of the good things I'm remembering right now plus a "comment/suggestion/wish/to do" for this New Year.

1. My dad went home 2 times this year. March and September. (For this year, hope he will still be ok "out there" but it would be better if he'll be back home for good.)
   
2. I graduated. (This year I have to have a work, a paying one.)
   
3. I passed my board exams. I thank God for this, there is some divine intervention there, I know. ; ) (if ever I'll get the chance to take the ielts or nclex exam this year I hope id pass them too! But my goal for this year is to find work so to pass the interviews would be great too!)
   
4. My 3 year old nieces went to school and they are learning a lot. (this year id make it my goal no.2 to convince their parents to enroll them to ballet school during summer, they like dancing and Cassie obviously have the talent, this would be a great foundation to their future)
   
5. My 7 year old nieces reading skills are improving and she got a bronze medal from kumon for her math (I'll be more supportive, PATIENT and patient to her this year. Be more patient to her!! I'll make this my order to myself... ; )
   
6. My childhood friend Karen visited us for a week from Bacolod. Its been years since we last saw each other. (this year I'll be more friendly, see good things in people first before I'd hate them… ; ))
   

 

I think that's all I can remember for now.

Here are some things that id like to do for this year, it still have a connection with my birthday resolution which I have to check 3months + some weeks from now.

• The change I have to do. A lot have happened last year but I still can't feel any improvement. This s*cks.
  
• The me time. Yes I already spent 7 months without doing anything and still didn't get the "me time" I want to talk to myself. *weirdo*hehe I think other people call it (some kinda like) reflecting, but I know there's a word for it which sounds so much better and appropriate. Hehe
  

 

I hope id really find the courage and patience to do what I want, this is probably what I lack most of the time that's why I'm stuck to what I am now.
