Year 2009 Resolution

I would like to hear about your resolutions, and what you plan to carry over into the year 2009.

I have many things I want to do, and continue to do! I've recently felt that I'm on the right track. It's a wonderful feeling to have when starting out the new year. Tell me, what has changed? What's going to change?

Welcoming 2009:

1. Drama Free: Months or weeks before my boyfriend moved out of Iloilo in October 2008, our lives has been so controversial. lol. There were rumors made by someone who seems to be in a state of insanity. When he is already working in Baguio, those rumors, and harrassing SMS from this person had eventually made a sudden churn. Until eventually, this person mutes for a while. Probably this person got tired already, because we don't really mind at all. Also, I just noticed that before 2008 ends, i let go of friends and some people who tend to start complications and who were causing non-sense.. and I feel better for it. Yes, it may be a loss, but if I can start out this new year with only positive chill people in my life, it would be the best thing possible. As I let go of the negative energy, I will let go of the people who carry that negative energy for me.

2. To Diet: Two friends and myself have decided to go on diet for the new year. I feel like this would be a healthy and worth-while change. Just today, Hectril and I went to one of the coffee shops in the area and met his cousins there. His cousin complimented that I looked really good with my hair and that I lose weight. Maybe because we haven't seen each other for quite a while.. that's why he thought i slim down hehehe. Some of my friends said I gained weight, so i'm really confused which is which. But either way, I'd still continue with my diet and get that 26 waistline back. I have to reach my goal weight. It won't be easy, but I also know that I won't struggle with it too much considering my current diet. Few changes will be made, but they'll be big ones.

3. Anti-Fast Food: With that said, I plan to entirely cut out fast food..especially with sodas. I love Coke float that much, but if that would cause my tummy to bloat..then I'd force myself to stop drinking Coke float. The big problem with me is I always end up succumbing to a small order of fries here and there when out with friends, but no more! Anti-grease patrol. And seeing as my friends are also wanting to eat healthy, we will probably try to stop eating at fast food chains.

4. Baggage at the Door: This resolution isn't very new for 2009, but rather something I've recently started that I intend to carry over with me. Some of you are a little bit aware of my life and love story, and those who aren't can relate simply by applying their own. I'm letting go of my immature behavior to become a more trusting person. I've started to put things into perspective and I've realized that judging my present and future because of something someone shady did to me (and to my bf) is truly unfair for all parties.

5. Don't Sweat the Small Stuff: I've been known to hyperventilate over the smallest of daily inconveniences and blunders. I will slowly calm down, and I plan to walk into the new year without over analyzing things that don't matter.

6. Money: Learn to refinance. Make some more savings. Don't use the credit cards. Pay bills on time.

7. Liquor Free: While I'm not going straight-edge, I do plan to cut down a LOT as far as drinking goes. Drinking has been behind a lot of my anxiety problems and causes me to do things I'm not proud of. In 2008 I learned my limits, Hectril somehow taught me how to minimize drinking by not allowing me to go out often. And if he does allow me, he would give me limits. and I don't intend on exceeding those limits. There's no reason to black out and choke on your own vomit! hehehe.

8. Never Settle for Less: I have always found myself setting for less than what I truly desire. If I can't do the thing i want to do, I settle for something I don't like instead of waiting for something wonderful to come along. It's the same thing of wanting someone. Right now, I am with someone whom I want to be with very much so.

9. Move: I still plan of moving. I've promised myself to move out of this town and pursue my dreams elsewhere. I'm not saying I'm waiting to the end of 2009 to do so, but I think it's proper to set goals. I have a very good idea of where I want to move but I'm not going to jump into anything just yet. Like all great plans, I want to have good financial standing behind what I do. If I'm moving, it means my life is exactly where it's supposed to be, and I don't plan on moving until that is the case.

10. Enjot life. Have fun, fun, fun!


I grew up a lot in 2008. It's been such a bittersweet year filled with a Pandora's box of emotions for me. It started out insane, but it's now ending on a very calm and peaceful note. There are no afflictions and no concerns. I feel like I'm being taken care of by myself, my boyfriend, my family, and by others.

I can't promise that this resolutions will remain for the 2009, but I will try. and if it does, I'll be here. Life has its own way of putting a spin on things sometimes. You will all know how to reach me if I disappear. So please, send me good vibes! I need them. ;)
