I have always seen myself as an introvert, but seeing my best nine; I’m slowly doubting myself. To old and new friends, to sweet memories and beginnings, to my love for running and my love, a blessed new year to all of us. Thank you for being a part of my 2015! 🎉🎉🎉 ☺☺☺

the year that was

Wow. I can’t believe that it has been 10 months since I visited this page. I guess I got caught up in the real world. I thought it was going to be a very relaxed (more of chill) year for me since it’s the first time that I didn’t have plans for travel, but the year proved me wrong.

This year was the year I stayed outside of my comfort zone. It was the year of many firsts. Let’s not forget how 2014 ended but 2015 was quite a challenge. First, I get to study again in Graduate school. It was fine until finals came. Second, knowing the introvert that I am, it sure was a challenge to meet some of her friends. It was the first time I get to meet friends of the one I love (it’s the first time since the relationship is unconventional) haha. I am always uncomfortable to meet new people, but I figured, I should do it. I should know the people in her life, ’cause these are the people I will be spending the rest of my life with.

This was also the debut of my running career. Last February, I got to finish my first ever half marathon and from then on, there was no turning back. Wish me luck on February ’cause I will be having my first ever full marathon. Yeah!

Anyway, moving on. Every year, I take note of “get a new job” as my new year’s resolution. This requires another page of the story, but in a nutshell, the move was an emotional trainwreck. I know I did the right thing, but I just wish it was easier.

Lastly, because I moved to a new job, I now have the luxury to buy a new car. And that is great, except that I don’t know how to drive, yet. And for that matter, I am now taking my driving lessons. I hope to finish it all alive and well.

With all these events that happened that I did not even expect or think about, I have no freaking idea what to write on my 2016 to-do-list, but just for tradition’s sake, here’s my bucketlist for 2016 (in no particular order):

Climb another mountain (and get one with the nature)

Go to the beach and show off that bikini bod (exude confidence)

Finish your first full marathon (increase self esteem)

Get them to know her (for her happiness)

Learn how to swim (for your triathlete dream)

Pray and search for spirituality (for my soul’s happiness)

Write more (for myself)

Travel (bond)

Invest.

Give.
