Party like it's the end of the world! ☺

Happy New Year, my sweet readers! I know it's a wee bit late to greet you all, but better late than never, right? So, again, HAPPY NEW YEAR! Look, I don't want to get all mushy in this post. So, to all the people who took part in my 2011, my heartfelt message can be summarized into three short yet meaningful parts: THANK YOU, SORRY, I LOVE YOU. ♥

The previous year was a rough one for me and most of you know that. But I am still thankful, you know. 2011, you had been a massive pain in the arse, but thank you. From the bottom of my heart, thank you very much. You'd been so hard on me but I know you have your reasons. I am grateful for the lessons and the wicked curve balls that hit me in the gut. I know they were all there to hone a better me. ☺

Now, I don't know what 2012 has in store for me. I hope I can use everything I learned from the past year to make this year magnificent. I won't ask you to be awesome, 2012, for I am actually telling you that you are going to be great. You and I are going to have a blast! :)

2012 CHECKLIST:

☐ Meet or find someone who will make me happy / Fall in love.

☐ Gain weight.

☐ Read more books.

☐ Loosen up.

☐ Let go of 2011 / No regrets, just love.

☐ Surround myself with happy people.

☐ Smile a lot.
☐ Dream bigger.

☐ Enrich my vocabulary / Hone my writing skills.

☐ Be a better daughter and sister.

☐ I am strong, so I will be stronger.

☐ Build a stronger relationship with Papa God.

• Meet or find someone who will make me happy / Fall in love.
• I've been saying this a lot for the past months, so it might come out as a cliche: I really need to see people. Not literally see them, like, go out on a date with them. No. I have to stop treating people who cares for me as ghosts. I love the idea of being in love but I am shying away from love at the same time. I have to stop doing that. I should not be afraid to fall in love. Not everyone will disappoint me like some people I know, I have to keep that in mind. This year, I am ready. I am not hurrying love. I am not even planning to fall in love. What I am saying is, if love comes, I am going to welcome it with arms wide open. ☺
• Gain weight.
• Yeah, I really have to. I lost a lot of weight last year. I am as skinny as fvck. :(
• Read more books.
• I do not have to be told twice. ☺
• Loosen up.
• I have to stop being so effing uptight. It's not bad to think about the consequences before I do something but I think I am overdoing it. If something will make me happy, I will go for it.
• Let go of 2011 / No regrets, just love.
• Yes, I will try to. I know it is not going to be easy, but I will try my best to free myself from the darkness (darkness?) of the previous year. I will try to let go of all the pain and heartaches it had brought me. I will try to heal all the scars it has given me. I WILL TRY, AND I WILL TRY HARD. ☺
• Surround myself with happy people.
• I am always surrounded by people who bring good vibrations, I will hang with them more this year. :)
• Smile a lot.
• And when I say smile, smile genuinely. Don't smile just to hide the pain. Let go of the pain and smile. ☺
• Dream bigger.
• I have lots of dreams. Big dreams. I actually spend maybe half of my day dreaming about what I want. Yes, if you're wondering, it includes daydreaming about my celebrity crushes. Ha ha! But maybe dreaming big is not enough. I should start to dream bigger dreams. And of course, I should do something to make them come true. Because a dream without an action incorporated will forever be dream.
• Enrich my vocabulary / Hone my writing skills.
• I am not satisfied with my compositions in the past months. I find them kinda lame. I want to bring out the best in me in this field and I will. Mark that! The first thing I am going to do is free myself from all the distractions. Again, read more. ☺
• Be a better daughter and sister.
• I have been very grumpy last year because of what I'd been through. Always snapping at them and stuff. Aside from that, I think I am a good daughter and sister naman. This year, I will try to better. I will try to lessen my laziness when it comes to household chores. Ha ha! Good luck with that! :))
• I am strong, so I will be stronger.
• Yes. I really should be stronger because in our world, being strong is not enough.
• Build a stronger relationship with Papa God.
• I admit that I am not the devout kind of person. I am not a regular churchgoer. But I do not let a single day pass without talking to Him. Wherever I go, I always, always, always have my unswerving faith in Him. This year, I will try to be closer to God.

That's it. I will update this list at the end of 2012. If the world is still existing, that is. Ha ha! This December 21, 2012 thing makes me crazy. I do not want to believe in stuff like that but I decided that it is not bad to consider it. So, if the world is really ending this year, let's live our lives to the fullest. In fact, we always have to live like it's our last day on Earth, as if there's no tomorrow. Let's party like it really is the end of the world! SMILE, LOVE! ☺
