What’s in store for you this 2012?

Hello 2012! Please be friendly with me. Haha. I wonder how my life will run this new year.

Okay. 2012 will be more like finding myself. More reflection time, yes more time alone. Like now, me having my cup of coffee, thinking over a lot of things: where am I going, what stuff to do and the like. I may not appear as a serious person, so hello you I’m the serious Kate and nice to know you. J

Lately I’ve been staring blankly, gazing at nowhere, thinking..

After couple of years analyzing math problems and applying I-don’t-care formulas that you know you won’t use for the daily living, (I curse math. Haha. If you just cursed with me, now I see you smiling.) after memorizing the heck-we-care dates, places, wars and almost every detail in history books, after the laughing out loud moments in awkward P..E. activities, (Haterrr mode.) after hating school and ending up loving who’s in it, what’s in it, what you get in it, and tada! -> FINISHING IT.

After all, say with me: It was a yummy piece of cake. J

Now that I’m done studying and graduating college I need to spend more time to know myself, figure out the things that I’m capable of, weigh situations that favor me more, and of course decide to do what will be good for me. I think I’m done doing the things what people asks me to do, so done doing things what the society dictates me to do. Do I sound like a rebel? I think not. I’m more like an idealist speaking, and that makes a whole lot of difference. Listen. My point is: Stop hypocrisy. Start living YOUR life. Get up. Know yourself. Follow your heart. Do what you love.

I’m done. I enjoyed my coffee and cake. Enjoy yours. J

You’re In Control

I’m in this paradigm where people around me are limited to do what they really want to. They are bounded on things, I mean a lot of things; for fun for adventures, for chances to know more about themselves.

Reality check: You’re in control.

A friend told me that she totally envies me on how I can decide my own and freely speak about me not keeping on “track”. (I hope you get what I’m trying to say here. Haha.) She kept saying how lucky I am to be in an seemingly easy world I’m in and I was like it’s my choice. It has always been a man’s choice to go where he wants to go and do what he wants to do. Autonomy. Govern yourself. It’s your life. Don’t be a puppet on a string. Don’t be afraid. Speak up even if your voice is shaking.

Honestly, I don’t envy the ones who are successful while doing jobs that aren't their field. But I am happy for them. I’m jealous to those who aren’t successful but continuously doing what they love. People who are driven by their passion, working all day and night and not getting tired. Excited to work for tomorrow, to see how things will turn out again. Not bored, not tired, not complaining. Some or shall I say majority, aren’t making much money on it. Maybe, not now. We can’t tell. I may sound impractical and unrealistic, but driving your own ride is more to life than any negative reasons and excuses in the world.

New Year’s Resolution

Relax. Take a deep breath. There are 366 days this 2012. (2012 is a leap year. It's leap year every other 4 years. Last was 2008, so just add 4 so you know what year is next. #justsaying J). New year’s resolution doesn't require for you to instantly change on the first day of the year. You have days to work on it. Take it easy. You’re in control. Making a list isn't bad. It does motivate you to change to a better you. It’s setting goals and priorities. It’s a process.

Come on! Don’t be lazy. Grab a pen and paper. Make a short list. Now. Remember: Don’t push yourself. Life is simple. Set goals that are sure possible but not too plain boring, add some spice. Challenge yourself. J

So, here's my list:

• Gain some weight.
• Work out a little. Try daw nako mag ka abs. Haha.
• Read and write more.
• Say "please" more often.
• Be soft-spoken. Will try very hard on it. :-/
• Be more lady-like.

*Will add some as I spend the firsts: first Sunday, first Monday, first week, first month, so on. J

Let’s all welcome change and say hello 2012!

Dolly: Little Miss Sunshine

Dolly: Little Miss Sunshine J J J

Pag naka-smile si Doll, akala mo nakalunon ng kwitis. Why? Because her smile can light up a big room. Naks! Plus! To mention her positive energy that just over empowers any forms of negative vibes. No, she’s not a medium. Haha. J

Dolly walks around with her pretty face, glittery eyes, cute cheek bones, thin red lips. She’s undoubtedly sexy and remarkably smart. You will barely see her wearing a sad face. I don’t think problems penetrate Doll’s brain. I wonder, because she always seems carefree. She’s always cool, harmoniously taking good care of things that she believes she can manage. And I’m always impressed with that incredible attitude. What do you call that? Grace under pressure.

She’s God-fearing and hallelujah to her positive outlook in life. I don’t think Doll has the capacity to get mad. She’s that GOOD. Yeah. Way good. But I’m pretty sure she can make you laugh out loud. Just like Xej, she carries around handful of jokes. She cracks some anytime she feels to. She can also make you cry. She’s a type of friend, who’d force you to open up if she notices that there’s something bugging you. She’s so kulit when it comes to that stuff. And that’s so kind of her. Sweet! She’s a roller coaster conversation maker. Ooh lala. That just rhymed! Haha.

I just saw Dolly 2 weeks ago, and she was wearing a fatigue long-sleeve cardigan, white under shirt, pair of blue jeans, sneakers and a long vintage type necklace with a heart pendant as her bling. And I was like, “you just dress up like Elena Gilbert, the girl in Vampie Diaries”. In second thought, her personality is just like Elena’s: simple yet so amazing, sweet yet so strong.

Dollytot. Everybody’s little miss sunshine. J

P.S. You gotta pay me well with these praises Doll. Haha. JOKE.
