Happy New Year!!
I started the year sporting a shorter hair. It feels light in the head, both literally and figuratively. And I hope this way, I have started the year right.
I say goodbye to year 2007 with a smile because it was generally nice to me. And if there's any achievement that I attained last year, it is that I was able to manage time so very good. I have reined time in a way that all the important aspects of my life (God, family, career, school) won't be compromised despite a lot of things that I grapple in my hands. Of course there were things I sacrificed so I can keep my balance. Some little less significant things that can wait. My scrap booking and cross-stitching that I so love doing have to be sealed in a box for the time being. Online chatting with friends and HS classmates have to be cancelled in my regular sked (which surprisingly I don't miss)

But I can't seem to sacrifice my journal writing. I can't simply put it aside. If life is going fast, it's important that you are in touch with your spirituality. It keeps you going. Journal writing does this to me. And more. Like, there are things that I might not be aware it's there until I've written them. It makes me understand myself and life in general. Aside from praying, writing helps me keep trail of my soul. And it's mainly the intention of this journal ( not so much for other people's viewing. Though I can create another blog for that purpose).
But I'm afraid I have reached the point that I have to put on hold even my journal writing. School has gotten too demanding now! Remember that I am in a fast-track method. And man, things have gotten REALLY fast!! There's a lot of writings required of us ( and eventually, we have to prepare for the comprehensive exam), and I want to give my full concentration on it. I have to give more time for school matters, which I'm worried if the remaining time I have for it would even be enough. That's why, I may not be able to visit this site for quite awhile. Three.. four months or so. But as I've said, I am in a fast-track method. So I might be back sooner than I think. Or I'm just hoping.. Oh. I'd miss writing down my thoughts. But like other things, this too will have to wait. I even bought some books for reading pleasure. They too have to wait and have to accumulate some dust before I can be able to read them.. Well, that's life for me now.
I'd be back from where I left off. That is, story of my christmas 2007 and the celebration of new year 2008, even though those stories would be outdated by the time I get back.
For now, I'M SIGNING OFF..
