Blogging
I will start this blog entry with the usual, "Hello, long time no see, and I promise I will blog more often."
I have been wanting to make a 2011 reflection blog. I can honestly describe that year as the year of change! It was really one heck of a roller coaster of emotions for me.
2011 was the year I graduated my football career. January to February were the last months of me playing competitive football. I was also made captain of my team and it really was the most memorable year for me. Letting go of football was really bitter sweet. I cried when the last whistle was blown in my last UAAP game. It felt like I just broke up with my long-time "boyfriend". Hahaha.
The saddest month was March. It consisted of most of my "lasts". Last time to be young, wild and free. Curfew-less. Living alone. Drinking every night. Trying different vices. Driving alone. Dictating what to do whenever I want to do it. Enjoying every single thing about UP Diliman. And more freedom. Letting go of that was just too hard and painful. It hit me the most when my condo was empty and I had to surrender the keys to the owner because it was a rent. I honestly cried, as in hagugugol. I felt like I was letting go of my freedom. Living in that condo was really one of the best times of my life.
I considered April and May as the months of being a professional bum. I needed that two months of rest from being a student for 19 years of my life. I lived to the song of Bruno Mars, the Lazy Song. It was nice, but also very boring.
June, I was hired by my Dad to start working in our family business. It was a huge and long debate whether I should learn the professional life in another company first. But I decided, if they will slowly transfer their work to us children, then teach me now. I don't wanna waste my time in another company.
That pretty much happened to me till December. I'm fine with my job. It's just computer work. Encoding, balancing, finding discrepancies, accounting etc. The advantage of having your parents as your boss is that your time in and time out in work is really flexible. Hahaha! And I really love it. Disadvantage though is that you're with them till you go home. Although they allow me to any happening I have. Probably even they are fed up with my face.
At Christmas Eve, my Dad scolded me. I will never forget that. He said I look "sad" and "depressed" ever since I started working with them. I really don't understand.. because I'm not. So he said, in 2012, I have to look for a sideline to make me "happy".
And you know what, I think I did. But that's a whole other blog entry after my meeting this Saturday. And I'm pretty excited. :)
PS.
Don't get me wrong, 2011 was really not THAT boring. I also had many exciting things that happened to me (concerts, out of towns, parties, etc.)! Hehe..
Cheers to 2012! This is my year!! :D
