The year 2010 is almost over. Looking back on the events that transpired during this year I can say that it has been tough.

My2010
This year I’ve set goal to start my Master’s degree and save money. At first I wondered how the heck am I gonna do that but I managed to get hold of a scholarship that took care of half of my tuition. Not bad, I told myself.

I was also able to open an account in Accord Capital to invest in stocks. At this moment, I was really worried of losing the amount I invested but I’m really trying to keep my spirits up. A friend told me that once you dwell into stocks you should forget about the money you invested. That scared me! Whew! Everything’s gonna be alright. I hope..

So I guess I was able to, in a way, accomplish my goals. Nice! Good job Sarahness.

Talking about work, I’m still assigned on one of the most difficult project, Project Management System. The thought of it brought back all the worries. I was not able to meet my deadline. I still want to finish this system. I just hope for everyone to cooperate.

My 2011
For my 2011, I’ve set the following goals:

• take my studies seriously
• be disciplined
• save. save. save

I’ve learned not to set so many goals for you may end up fulfilling nothing. The second one is gonna be a challenge for me but I want to make myself better so I will try my very best.

I do not want to hear myself mumble something like “I don’t want to go to work” or “Oh man, work again“. I want to be focused.

Happy New Year everyone!!

But the thing that I like best about Christmas is the excitement of children. Maybe I just want to feel Christmas again like a child, too innocent to understand what’s going on.

Merry Christmas folks!! Just remember,, gifts of time and love are surely the basic ingredients of a truly merry Christmas.

Deck the halls with boughs of holly
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
‘Tis the season to be jolly
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Don we now our gay apparel
Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la.
Troll the ancient Yule-tide carol
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.

Here’s the thing with new year’s resolution, every new year we welcome the notion of having a marvelous year and a fresh start that’s why we listed down all the things that we wanted to change, especially on ourselves, to be a better person… but in the middle, sometimes not even close, we go back to our old ways. We usually get tired because change is not an easy thing to deal with in the first place. To most people,including me, new year’s resolutions doesn’t work because we are looking at the bigger picture and not on the little details that make it.

The following are my new year’s resolution:

1. Be Organized.

I wanted to have everything in place. It freaks me out that most of the time I’m taking forever just to find stuff on my closet or drawer.

2. Go to Church Every Sunday.

I need to have my faith in check. I must nourish my soul and make up for all of the shortcomings that I’ve had this year.

3. Get Fit.

Tame the bulge in my tummy, meaning…. more crunches. I wanted to have my old weight back.. to be fit so that when I’m strolling the mall or running chores, as if I’m doing chores, I will not get easily exhausted.

4. Save. Save… and Save

These holidays.., all the parties that I’ve gone to and all the spendings leave me penniless. I need to save right away or else I’ll drain my bank account. I don’t want that to happen and besides we must always plan and save for the future.

5. Learn Something New

I wanted something new… to do away with computers and the cyber zone. I’m planning of taking piano lessons after graduation.

Okay, all have been said. Let’s see how far I can go this time. I only listed five to keep it simple… to easily check if I’m being faithful with these resolutions. I don’t want it to be another broken pledge.
