hindi naman titigil ang mundo para lang sa isang tao.

chos!

syempre kailangan ma-drama ang title.

to say that 2011 was eventful would be an understatement.  if you are an avid(?) reader of this blog, you are aware that i made a point to blog weekly.  having reread some of my former entries made me feel a little warm inside as it highlighted every mundane thing i did.  i had a pretty good run, even if i only reached week 30.  i still like to believe that it served its purpose.  made me feel that each moment of my life is precious and that i should be grateful for it.

i can proudly say that i started 2011 right.  i did a bit of goal setting.  i listed restaurants i wanted to try.  habits i wanted to quit/start.  it was awesome.  i was feelin the good vibes.  but the awesomeness had an expiration date.  my writing started to wane around week 22 and eventually ceased by August.  

i tried to revive it but it was no use.  as mentioned, i cannot fully elaborate on the reason for the abrupt change.  i will loosely use the term 'personal crisis'.   and sadly, (if i can be honest), the road to recovery is still far.  there is just too much to work on, too many things to consider, so much to discuss.  but this is not the place for that.  it is a battle that i alone should face.

on a happier note, i greeted 2012 full of hope and vigor.  i reread my 2011 goals and was pleasantly surprised that i was able to accomplish more than half.  it may be little things here and there but it was no mean feat nonetheless.  i am proud of what i've done and i am excited to see what's in store for me this year.  

cheers everyone.  happy new year!


UPDATE:  OK i just discovered something in my "archives".  an unpublished entry from last year.  i can't believe i never posted it. 



week 31 to present:  say what?

i find it interesting that i am writing this in a coffee shop.  it feels so surreal.  like what i am actually spurting on notepad is a masterpiece of sorts which will somehow make sense to the world of the living.  my god, what a fantasy.

i don't really remember what happened between now and then.  it's just one of those times when no discernable event occurred and everything just falls into oblivion.  sometimes i think it's quite lucky that i have the inate ability to forget things.  i like to joke that i have selective amnesia.  and sometimes, that is actually true.

it does have it's pros and cons.  but whether or not forgetting everything that happened is good nor bad, i have no intention of wasting the remaining time of the day (and the laptop's battery life for that matter) in trying to recapture the moments of those weeks, which are obviously, very forgettable.

which brings me to my topic:  NOTHING.  even though there is much to say about august, i'd rather keep my mouth shut.  i'll just sit here and stare at my steaming cup of coffee and pretend that everything is alright.

author's note:  gawd, so emo!
