It all ends today
Because I found some idle time at work but I'm too lazy to write my own month-by-month post, I just filched this from
kristiann and
riisha . If you're wondering what the subject's all about... Well, today's my back-to-work day. I'm not really feeling well. I've got colds, I feel a bit heavy and the office is too cold, so I'm getting a runny nose. On the other hand, I don't have too much work either since I don't have the new projects yet and I still have to hear from my contacts for my ongoing projects. So I'm spending my time catching up with LJ posts. Heh.
1. What did you do in 2006 that you’d never done before?
Rode a bus on my own.
2. Did you keep your new years’ resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
Er, I don't really keep my resolutions so I stopped making them
3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
None that I know of.
4. Did anyone close to you die?
A lot of people whom I knew died, but I wasn't close enough to them to be hurt badly. I was really affected by the death of a childhood friend though. His sister and I were playmates when I was in grade school. He died from a virus that attacks the heart. One moment, he was chatting with his dad and then the next he was convulsing. He was 4th year high school when he died. And it was on the day that he was supposed to take the ACET. His death made me think of a LOT of things.
5. What countries did you visit?
None. I did get to go around the country though.
6. What would you like to have in 2007 that you lacked in 2006?
A car? LOL
7. What date from 2006 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
April 22: Eng'g Graduation... Among many others of course, some really fun and some kinda sad.
8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Graduating with Honors
9. What was your biggest failure?
Getting only 7 people to attend the YFC Metrocon from our cluster. Other clusters all had participants in double digits. X.X
10. Did you suffer illness or injury?
I had a lot of colds and fever episodes and of course, there's that unforgettable sprain that redefined the meaning of swollen foot for me. *Picture included* My foot is still a bit swollen, btw. And I still can't run properly.
11. What was the best thing you bought?
My orange Motorola V3X :D :D
12. Whose behavior merited celebration?
My whole family, for their unending support despite me being a brat sometimes.
13. Whose behavior made you appalled and depressed?
My neighbor. Appalled really.
14. Where did most of your money go?
Food, shoes and clothes.
15. What did you get really, really, really excited about?
Work. But that excitement has now faded into obscurity. I get short bursts sometimes though. Heh.
16. What song will always remind you of 2006?
"For Good" from Wicked the Musical. They used it for our graduation video.
17. Compared to this time last year, are you:
i. happier or sadder? Straddling the middle but leaning a bit on sadder for various reasons.
ii. thinner or fatter? Fatter, sadly
iii. richer or poorer? Definitely richer
18. What do you wish you’d done more of?
Travelling
19. What do you wish you’d done less of?
Working overtime
20. How did you spend Christmas?
Eating dinner, playing parlor games in the family christmas party, karaoke and then Ragnarok.
22. Did you fall in love in 2006?
Oh yes. Lots of times over Suoh Tamaki. XD
Seriously... no. I MIGHT have, but I think it didn't have the chance to grow.
23. How many one-night stands?
None. I know I advised Krissy once about this and depression. But I never follow my own advise. XP
24. What was your favorite TV program?
I like a lot of ABS-CBN's Koreanovelas. Hehe. My Girl = lurve

Smoke and Mirrors by Neil Gaiman
27. What was your greatest musical discovery?
Regina Spektor XD Thanks to Karen for that.
28. What did you want and got?
Phone and shoes
30. What was your favorite film of last year?
Happy Feet (I'm a sucker for musicals and cute stuff, so Happy Feet's deadly to me)
31. What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you?
I don't remember O_O I think we ate out.
32. What one thing would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying?
If the damn Global Orgs processing from Dec.23 didn't fail. I would've slept more soundly during vacation then.
33. How would you describe your personal fashion concept in 2006?
Anything I like and can afford XP
34. What kept you sane?
My sister and strawberries.
35. Which celebrity/public figure did you fancy the most?

The con con and con ass thing, since I had to listen to one priest lecture about it during homily.
37. Who did you miss?
Do you even have to ask?

Liezl Ibanez, my workmate. She's so interesting.
39. Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2006:
Work hard so you can slack off sometimes.

"It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right."
