it's new, it's gonna be great!

The clock ticks and in just a few minutes, 2012 will end and will remain as part of our history and 2013 will take place. Before, I haven't given much importance to new years except that whenever it happens, the entire street brightens up with different, colorful lights and the blasting of firecrackers and fireworks but now that I seem to have 'come to that age', I see new year in quite a different light. New year means adding up another year to your age and I am now one of those people who just want to age backwards. Because this 2013, I am technically leaving my -teens ages and finally stepping into my twenties, oh heavens! Who would have thought? Even I myself is reeling.

Unlike most people, I am not the kind of person who lists down my goals and resolutions for this new year, well you can say I'm the type who just 'goes with the flow~' that way also, I could avoid being pressured to complete such goals in a certain time.

Well, I'm wishing you and I would have a prosperous, healthy, peaceful, happy and successful 2013. There are so many events to look forward to this new year. Well...I can feel it! Heee~

You and I may have a lot or little to be left in 2012 or to be carried on to 2013.

Whatever those are, let's just all be spread love and most importantly, be happy!


HAPPY NEW YEAR, FRIENDS!

She's Awesome


 





Apparently, my cousin left her Blogger logged in. 

And I just thought of saying that Corina is like the most awesome cousin I could ever have.

hola!

So, how is it going? By now, I'm pretty sure you're one of those people who are all like, "can you feel the spirit of Christmas already?" of some sorts. And you're all like, "hell yes, we do! We just went shopping the other day but there are still things that need to be bought so we're going to hit the mall again! yay!" O...kay. That's definitely fun and perhaps, seeing people rushing around to buy stuff in the mall gives a happy and unknown feeling inside you because you know that it's really Christmas!

But the queueing part is another thing. It's almost 2 days away from the actual Christmas day and yet, never have I felt nor appreciated it this year. So many things, tiring and unexpected and frustrating things happened and are happening that I cannot bring myself to fully feel the spirit of Christmas 2012. well, what is life if every moment is always fun, no? Despite all these we and I are going through, I am still happy (but so tired and sleepless and money-less LOL) that because of this, the family is very united. This year's Christmas may not be as joyful and grand as before but the 'genuine' spirit of Christmas is there. It is not always about giving or exchanging gifts with your friends or family members, but it's the thought and the love you have for them. There, I just wished you a happy, cheerful, jolly, blissful and blessed Christmas this year! I love you all lots.

things

Just a random thought I've thought of. And it's something about frustrations. Just like problems, everybody has frustrations they want to get rid of or overcome. And they can be very burdening to someone, and most of the time be carried on through your lifetime. But guess what, why suffer and be bitter because of these frustrations when while you're still young, you can do something about it? Turn your frustrations into inspirations for that way, you could at least be positive and somewhat do something to overcome whatever that frustration is. OKAY NOW, I DID NOT UNDERSTAND A THING I WROTE. But I really, really had to get it off my chest.

rushed post

Out of the blue, I decided to blog again (after encountering an ever-famous flying cockroack. XD) about...Christmas because our neighbor who lives across our house has installed christmas lights and stuff. Well, lemme tell you something about my Christmas. Christmas gives me a nostalgic yet fun and exhilarating feeling. Seeing all those flashy christmas lights alone or on christmas trees triggers something in me to stretch my lips for a smile and for no reason, be simply happy. By the first week of December (which is now), we are starting to bring out decorations and install them slowly, well, that was during the past years but now, our house is nowhere near looking like Christmas is approaching, it's not that we don't want to design and all because having your house well-designed and all actually makes the atmosphere beautiful and homey but there's something that really hinders us from doing so. These -ber months are quite not good to us, financially and physically. There are members of the family who got sick and are still, now and when financially because there's a drastic situation in papa's office that inhibits him from bringing home money he used to bring before which is very, very upsetting, disappointing, frustrating that we, the members of the family would like to cry. Everytime there's an ad on TV saying "22 days before Christmas" and stuff, we tease papa and what he always replies to us is, "lilipas din 'yan~" (it will pass, anyway~) which is very sad on our part because we know that our Christmas this year wouldn't be as prosperous and sumptuous as before BUT since the day is just around, we are still hopeful and positive that we'd be able to have a Christmas just the way we used to have it before, or if not, close enough. Think positive and have faith to God! He will provide! Have a nice day and week! I've got tons of stuff to do and yet I'm here, blogging (at the most crucial moment T__T). We have a quiz tomorrow on Science. Have I mentioned this before? I hate Science (well, at least some concepts of it), next to Math! D:
