bye bye 2005!

Last 2005 was a not-so-good-yet-not-that-bad year for me. I have to admit that the first months were tough. With the separation of my parents and all the things which came with it, it was difficult. Last year was the year I cried the most (although you could still count those with your fingers). haha But it was also last year where I learned a lot of things. And they are:

Things I learned last 2005:

1. I learned that crying is a good way of releasing all the pains I have inside; too bad I still don't cry that much. haha

2. I learned that I just have to accept what life brings me and move on because the world just won't stop spinning for me.

3. I learned that everything (yes, EVERYTHING) can still be a happy ending depending on how I see it.

4. I learned that there will be lots of challenges which will go my way and will test in what I believe in and stand for.

5. I learned how to love and value people around me more.

6. I learned how to let go of certain things and people whom we need to let go of.

7. I learned that I can reach my goals if I really want to.

8. I learned that I have friends whom I can turn to when I need them.

9. I learned about what they mean when they say "I am in love" and "I am loveless".
(I used to ask myself how it could possibly be. haha)

10. I learned that I HATE Math more than I thought I hated it.

I learned quite a lot, huh?! Actually, I think I learned more than that but for now, this is only what I can think of. Aside from these things which I've learned, I also found myself accomplishing lots of things which are:

Accomplishments last 2005

1. I've taught my grade 2 students and I find myself happy when I do it.

2. I finished Julius Caesar and actually found myself liking the story.

3. I've helped kids in the outreach program we had.

4. I went to Hale's gigs and saw them twice! I also saw Spongecola and Rivermaya in
flesh! Yay! haha

5. I went to 3 concerts. Wow.

6. I became class president. (Wait, is this an accomplishment?!)

7. I've been surviving my Geom and Chem classes (although I know I have low grades).

8. I was one of the 5 people who was chosen for the Ateneo Junior Camp (and the test
is coming near).

9. I cried lots of times (well, at least I think it's a lot. haha) You would rarely
see me cry.

10. I got a quincinera partner! Oh yeah!

Anyway, I have lots more but that's ten of what I've accomplished which I'm really proud of! haha

Happy New Year to everyone! My 2005 wouldn't have been complete without all of you! God bless!

the new year

How was my New Year?! Okay, let's start from New Year's eve. It started out pretty well. We went to mass (and I saw Anonymous in a blue checkered polo and maong pants) which made my New Year. haha Anyway, after the mass, we went home but it was still early so did not eat media noche right away. I went online and greeted people happy New Year. Then, we ate na. While we were waiting for 12 midnight, I thought of going to our room and spend my New Year there. I so thought it was going to be a lame one. Oh yeah, as if Meralco read my mind. Suddenly, there were no lights. There was a black out. What a nice way of spending New Year! So we went outside the house (but still inside. Uh, you know what I mean. Don't you?!) Anyway, So we were outside the house with one candle and with my phone used as a flaslight with all the noise (as in super lakas na mga paputok! I thought I was going to have some heart attack!) and the smoke. Eeek! But when 12 midnight came, there was more noise and more fireworks and firecrackers. But I liked the fireworks part. There were lots of them (And I thought wala ng pera ang mga tao). There were fireworks everywhere I didn't know where to look. haha Seriously! There were fireworks in front of me and at my left and at my right. So there. Electricity only came back at around 1 am.

hmmm

I bought a pair of birkenstock. 3600 pesos. awwww
