I gotta be honest, 2011 was a rough ride for me. So many changes, I could hardly keep up.

January was when I was officially single on Facebook. It was a misunderstanding of epic proportions but it was a premonition of the things to come. After Bohol, I went to Davao for a vacation but I found myself coming back every few months. By February, I was absolutely, without a doubt, single. March came and April too, and all of a sudden, my family in Davao were visiting Dumaguete for the clan reunion. By May, I had climbed Mount Apo. June found me in a quagmire of bad habits and by July, I was back in Davao for good. I travelled to Surigao, Pantukan, Santa Cruz, Digos, everywhere accessible by bus, for the smallest of reasons. By September, I was contemplating of re-enrolling and quitting my freelance gigs. And in beautiful October, I was back in school. November was a blur and now, its almost 2012.

Honestly.

But don’t get me wrong. I have a LOT to be thankful for this year. My family, fragmented as we may be, have been nothing short of supportive and candid about my decisions, guiding me as to which paths to take. The friends that I have missed so badly are all within reach. Things have changed, certainly, but it’s all good. My relationship with God is steady, communing daily through our family’s prayer circle every morning. School has been a challenge, but it’s all going well. My programming skills are a little rusty but I’m enjoying Java, despite the learning curve (BLAME THE RETAKERS LELZ) and I found my new favorite subject, Database.

Drinking, holidays notwithstanding, has absolutely declined in frequency. IDK but I just don’t feel like it anymore. So I suppose this is where I write about my resolutions for next year.

1. Strengthen my relationship with God.

2. Lessen smoking.

3. Wear more feminine clothes.

4. Take better care of my skin.

You might notice the lack of a Christmas wishlist this year. And I know it’s cliche to say so but I have absolutely nothing more to ask for. I am content with what I have and thankful for what blessings may come my way.

2012, if you’re the end, then the end has come too soon. I’m only getting started.
