Before anything else, merry Christmas and happy new year to everyone who'll stumble upon my humble abode! Oh to those who want to give me something this holiday... a paid iTouch app will do! Except for Angry Birds full version because I already have that. Just look for my email at the bottom of my sidebar. Haha it'll be appreciated :p Here's a picture of the last Christmas party I went to. Guess where :p

It's my camera's (Piper) first birthday today and I decided to order 3-color pop-up flash diffuser for Piper. Sad that it'll arrive next year :( Anyway, happy birthday Piper! Yehesss. So... I'm back. And I seriously miss blogging (if that's what you call whatever I write here) and everyone in the blogging universe. Here's what I have for this entry...

My 11 goals for 2011:

1. Save money

- My first payslip made me giddy and gave me this feeling of "independence" that I can now buy whatever what I want. My first investment: Apple iPod Touch 4G. I was very eager to save money for the Itouch 4G during the first few months of work. And yes, I was able to have it! Then I realized that I haven't saved anything  on the succeeding paydays. I decided to list down the things I want to buy but the list just goes on and on to infinity. Haha. There goes the payday nightouts with officemates, HS/college reunions, and my gigging life. Add to that my fixation on shoes, bags, clothes and my techie cravings. Goodluck to me. Which leads me to...

2. Travel

- Suddenly, a part of myself became an adventure seeker and fell in love with traveling. I don't travel a lot because I easily get dizzy during trips. But I got used to my daily school travel and some not so far (oh really) gig places I went to. My dream is to travel both local and international. I first started in Palawan last summer and my family plans to go to Baguio this summer. I personally plan to go out of the country, maybe Singapore or Hong Kong. Dear Cebupac, more seat sale please?

3. Basic Photography workshop
- This one on Feb 2011. I wish. I'm looking for people who can join me with this one. 4k, five eight-hour sessions. FPPF Intramuros! So far and expensive but I heard its good. I really wanted to find time again for photography, to do some amateur photography action haha. Since I think I partially lost my "drive" for photography. Whut drive. Haha. But seriously though, I'm serious with this. Piper's got one more year in its warranty. Better do something about it!

- Okay, so I think I'm getting fatter as days go by. Damn workshift and everything and my undisciplined self! I really need some serious diet. y'know or at least lessen my food serving... hmm... maybe next year, after this holiday season. I WILL TRY DO IT.

5. Learn Mandarin Chinese or any foreign language

- THIS ONE IS FREAKING SERIOUS. Because I want to sound cool. Haha just kidding. I really want to study again but not the masteral study type. I'm okay with short courses because I don't think I'm ready to hit some real class action and serious thesis.

6. Watch a concert
- I have watched plenty of gigs and live acts but I never hadthe chance to watch a real concert. The Araneta Coliseum/SM MOA Grounds type of concert. DAMN PRETTY PLEASE. TAYLOR SWIFT ON FEB 19, 2011!!! Tickets anyone?

7. Catch up with friends or organize a reunion
- I love organizing events with friends! It's exhausting but its really worth it. Hmmm.

8. Love my job/Be open for new opportunities
- I actually love my job. But. I honestly don't know where's my career going to. I never dreamt of working in a BPO industry. (FYI, BPO DOESN'T ALWAYS MEAN CALL CENTER OKAAAY.) I love my work in Thomson Reuters as a research analyst. Awesome people, comfortable workplace, prestigious multinational company, nice compensation package, rewarding. But the problem is, I don't see myself working there on the next few years, doing the same things in the future. My dream job was actually to work in a bank. I had my OJT in a bank, DBP Main Branch. And well,I saw some real bank action there and I know I can use whatever I learned from college. But I'm not willing to sacrifice what I'm earning now to what banks nowadays offer.

9. Learn how to drive
- Not sure with this one since we don't own a car. I might forget everything in driving school. But who knows, maybe we'll win a car this year. Haha fingers crossed!

10. Lovelife
- THIS ONE. 'Nuff said. WTF HAHA.

11. ACCOMPLISH THESE GOALS!!!

That's it for now. I wish these are wise investments and can open opportunities for me. Actually I have more goals but eleven sounds so cool and it rhymes with 2011. Haha. Whatever. /kbye
