'Tis the Season

Tis the season, really :)

Everythings's been great for me this year, thanks to those lucky stars. It's that time of the year once again, the time of gift giving, hot chocos, endless fasyon parties and guiltless shopping.

My Christmas wishlist for this year is totally blank. Not that I don't want anything at all, I just don't know if I want something that specific right now (kaw kasi bambi e). I feel like I've got every material thing that I could actually want (I havent been to the malls yet so maybe that would change). I'm focusing more on the things that I'm giving to my dearly beloveds. I want them to get something special, unexpected, unique, and spectacular this holiday season from me. I want them to be happy. In fact, I wish everyone's happy this Christmas.

It's been a fast year and to be honest, I barely realized that the year's coming to an end once again. From the Arcadia suprise party to Cyler gift giving (I miss you, Cyler) to losing / gaining friends to Lara's Crowne moments to Bora with the bitches to Tagaytay mis/adventures to sudden Puerto moments to Laiya debuts to LaCopa moments to Playa, Calatagan to bestfriends' graduations to pick-a-fight moments to stressful thesis nights to everyday drinking (at Xavierville, Grilled Tomato, Katip, Tomas, 77 Cafe) to Piedra nights to Holiday Inns to homecomings to I heart Katipunan to Ponte Fino Batangas to sucky retreats to Wii moments to high school reunions to Graduation pictures and write-ups to happy halloweens to going back to black hair (but shifting again to brown soon) to MarkProf to Subic Adventures to dolphin loving to double graduation.

This year was a year of great movies, impulsive (and sometimes unnecessary) closet filling, beach loving, booze overflowing, awards winning, network expansion, and love never-ending.

I can't wait for the next round.

Last night marked the end of our MarkProf training. The theme of the program was: "Top 25 Marketing Trainees: Ready for the World". Am I really? It's so scary for me. I dreaded the day the training would end coz it means that I finally finally have to face the real world and look for a job, support myself, and save my own money. I'm scared of the unknown and the unfamiliar. Last night, however, reassured me that I am actually ready and that I can take on any challenges that come my way. I celebrated that realization. I celebrated not only the idea of being one of the best Marketing trainees in the country, but I also celebrated the person that I could be someday.

I hope I make my parents proud, my country thankful, and myself happy and contented.
