heads up

Last year, I posted a love song on Valentine's Day. This year, I thought I'd write some "reality check-ish" entry.

I really haven't written, I mean, written for a while. I guess I was too caught up with the holiday activities, then too caught up with the Manila trip, then too caught up with the getting-over-the-manila-trip, all the while equally caught up with playing with my favorite toy, my sewing machine.

I'd like very much to start writing more.

Chinese new year celebration is almost done, just one more week left and coincidently, I have time to think about where I am.

For a while I was having the hardest time deciding if I should take my MBA or wait some more for a career opportunity given my skill set, and it was really stressing me out. I'd have sleepless nights spent mulling over my course of action. I'm still not clear about what I'm going to do but somehow, I don't feel so lost anymore.

I've started incorporating more physical activities into my weekends (and some weekdays) as I think old age is on its way to get me, my ass is fast expanding and every woman will tell you that such is not a good thing.

I have started using firming eye cream too. Luckily, this year won't be the year that I start dyeing my hair to cover the gray. Based on my intelligent guess, I have ten more years before then.

By inspection, I found that I have too many shoes, too many white tops, too many knickers but not enough pants. This needs to be mitigated soon.

I have taken up yoga a few months back, but I find that although my flexibility has significantly improved, I still can't touch my toes without bending my knees. I will get there, I WILL GET THERE, I hope before 2009 I would have conquered that feat.

I'm looking to talking a proper sewing course, but in the meantime I have decided to self study. I'd rather join a class when I am an expert on the basic skills. Pattern making is tough, but I find that I am little by little improving. My goal is to make clothes with tucks before my birthday.

I miss HIM. We haven't made plans as to when we would be seeing each other again, I'm hoping it is sooner rather than later--like now. It's only been three weeks since we were last together but I feel like we have been apart for so much longer than that. As far as relationships go, though the distance makes it more challenging, but I must say that I am blessed.

Over all, I am happy and think that I am exactly where God wants me to be. I will continue to take steps to better myself and the quality of my life in preparation for what lies ahead. I am aiming to always be positive and see the good in everything.

What is my long term goal? It is to stay happy.
