list.

so after working yesterday (yes, it was a holiday...no...it's not a paid OT), i decided to take a break from all my tasks this morning and tried to relax a bit. but of course, knowing myself too well, i began to get bored after a mere 10 minutes of quiet time. curse that darn network administrator for blocking the important social networking sites. there's no IM, no web mail. then both my "cube-mates" decided to have a meeting at the exact same time so i'm just basically left here in my station, alone with my thoughts. what a drag.

sitting around and "trying to look busy" is hard work people. i pretended to review an old document or flipped through a series of screenshots. my eyes got tired of staring at the computer screen so i thought, hey maybe this could be a good time to write something.

i took out my notebook...and for some bizarre reason, started listing all the major events that happened this year. well not the major major nationwide news-worthy events but just stuff that happened in my life. getting a new job, my grandmother's death, a death of an old friend, meeting another old friend, trips abroad that may or may not happen, new challenges, new friends. the list was pretty long. i was amazed. a lot has happened in 8 months. and so many more is about to happen. it left me feeling scared and excited at the same time.

anyway, i really don't have a point. i just thought that maybe it's time i try to document my life as much as i can. i keep forgetting what this blog is about. i mean sure, it is an outlet or whatever. but it's also a tool that i can use so i wouldn't forget. there are so many events in my list that i coudn't explain. but i know eventually, the reason or reasons will present itself in due time.

i just have to learn not to forget.
