Cause tonight, tonight, the world begins again.

2011 went by so fast… it was just last year I was chugging vodka mudshakes crying during the new year and now it feels different.

I won’t do the monthly recap… Maybe like the top ten things that happened in 2011.

1.NHDL

Enough said. It is real this time. This is real. We are real. And for all the things that made me believe differently, I am glad I was proven wrong.

To the next year and to the year after that and to the many years after it.

2.NetworkLabs

I am so very thankful for this. I am so thankful for the opportunity. I am glad to be a part of something that I worked hard to get to. That people picked me because they were impressed and knew my potential and give me opportunities to actually go to the path I want. THANK YOU! I won’t let you down. I will be awesome ^__^v

3. Ilocos

I enjoyed being in N’s hometown. It was a nice change. I was glad to ride the pretty bus, meet the puppies, meet his friends and met his family :). I saw Marcos, ate a lot of Bagnet and home cooked food, and just had the vacation ever of doing nothing :D

4. Financial Woes Begone

More financial obligations to go until I am financially free. I am not proud on how I acted upon this so late, but I am doing what I can to eliminate this.

5. Resigned

What did I learn from all this? Never to let people bully me. I was so out of it that I let my defenses down and they hit me where it hurts.

I will never, ever be treated that way again.

6. Friends

Each and every year I learn who my real friends are. And who aren’t. The list gets a little smaller each year, but I am glad those people stayed. Those people who understood what I went through, those who gave me a lot of time to fix things.

And for those who don’t? Sorry to have wasted your time and your resources.

And for those I added to the list? See you again next year, I hope :D I’m happy we met.

7. Homeowner

When I opened the door with my keys for the very first time (sans the turnover day) I couldn’t believe it, it’s mine. A 28sqm little space with the balcony overlooking the Mandaluyong-Ortigas skyline. I owned this and it is mine.

Soon it will be someone else’s but I am glad to know I can own something at 27. It’s beautiful :)

8. Hi, Anberlin

I enjoyed the concert so much :) I’m glad to have seen this band live. Hooray. :)

9. Being Fearless

I believe being fearless is not living without fear, but even if you live in fear each day, you push forward.  I had to be brave and stand up for things I believe in. I had to do what I think is right. Because I absolutely dislike illogical reasoning. I don’t buy the bullshit anymore. So don’t sell me bullshit anymore.

10. Thankful

There’s a lot of things that went wrong. But still, a lot of things went right. I wake up each and every single day and I am thankful to be alive. I am thankful for everything. For those times I am happy and for those times that I am challenged to be happy.

2011, thank you. Hello, 2012. Let’s see how awesome it will be :)
