My,my. Another Year.

Isn't it odd how quickly time seems to move now? Every day is over before I enjoy it fully, and I always find myself wishing that I had more time. But I can't do anything about that, so I'll just cherish what it is that I have.

WHAT I LOST IN 2008:
1. Liezl Francisco
2. My shyness
3. The darkness because God found me again at AE

WHAT I GAINED IN 2008:
1.New sense of who my friends are: Camille Apin, Theresa Calacsan, & Caitlin Montilla
2.A second family: SLYM
3.A stronger will
4.My voice
5.Appreciation for life

What are my aims this year? Many, perhaps.

1)To learn to move on
Forget about what happened in 2008,it's past me now and all it can do is hurt me, really. Liezl, you're forgiven no matter what else you or anyone else says or reveals. Have a wonderful life because I'm going to enjoy mine, without you. Hopefully, this is the final time you appear here in my thoughts, because I'm starting a new chapter in my life, one without you.

2) Make myself matter
I've always been the one in the sidelines, and this year I want it to change. I want to matter to people and not be forgotten. Before, it was just that I didn't want to be a burden. Maybe now, I want to shrug that off that live. I know I still am, but I want to matter so much to people. I want to be included in things and conversations. I want to be sought out to be told things and to be cared about enough to be included. I don't want to be left out anymore, so please don't! This year, it's my goal to get myself included and do whatever I have to do to have that happen.

3) Stronger bonds
People will matter to me now, not just their needs, but people themselves. I'll talk more, become closer with everyone. My myspace will be a testimony to that. I want my comments to break 10,000 by the end of the year. 6,000 comments more might not seem like many in a year, but I never really talk to people on myspace. It's my goal to become connected with more people strongly.

4) Stop being lazy and work out often
I'm not exactly being lazy, but working all day is never a good thing. I'll move some work aside to do other stuff that's just as good for the body as work is for the mind.

5) More youth group
I haven't gone in months because this have been hectic. I miss them so much, my second family. I'm going to strive to see them more often so that I can connect with God in even more ways

6) Relax
Most people probably resolve to do the opposite of this. But, I'm always working and I get too stressed, so I need to learn to lay back sometimes and just relax. I'll learn.

7)Asian dramas
I love these and I am going to make more time for them this year. Maybe while they load I'll go on myspace more often? Just a thought!

This year is going to be a good one. I refer to 2008 as a dark year sometimes, because I did lose many things, more than listed. But that's life right? I'll shrug it off and keep moving on, happily. That's what I plan to do this year.
