Attracting the Good Vibes!

Today is January 16, 2008. The year have just begun and my life's getting pretty interesting.

For one, I've my travels scheduled. This January, I'm going to Subic. For February I'm in Cebu and Vietnam. May comes and I'll be in Bacolod! And that's just for May! I'm sooo going places this year, ahluvit. Travelling, especially with family and friends is always fun. Going to different places, regardless if you've been there before is always a delight for me.

Secondly, I'm dating. And my friends know me. I NEVER date. Well I did, since it really started last year. I was just mum about it cos none of it became serious and I wasn't serious about it. But now I'm kinda into this meeting guys and stuff, and I must say, it's pretty fun. I'm not exclusively dating one guy. I'd like to stay open. So this "single ready to mingle" I guess is really applicable now. Haha. Am I on a quest to find true love? Not really. I just thought, meet as much people (should be interesting enough), enjoy the flattery (aka free stuff and gifts), learn about yourself in the process, and maybe I'll bump into...uhh.. him? (I would have said Knight in Shining Armor but then.. I don't need saving, thank you. I would have said Prince Charming but that just sounds so superficial, and I'd like to think I'm not. Haha!).

I've started reading again! I've an officemate who thought I should read Gaiman so he lent me Coraline, which I really enjoyed. So now, he gave me another book, Archangel and I'm enjoying it. Then my other officemate happens to love poetry, and loves Neruda so the other day, I brought my 2 Neruda book of poems to him. Then it was like high school again. They lend me literature, I give them movies to watch. Haha. It's pretty cool.

Then Kathy and I just made a risk list. One of the things to do for 08: Go to a mall on a regular day, in full costume. Haha. Then there's one thing that I've been fantasizing of doing: dance in the rain. That's so cute, right? This list ain't done yet..so maybe we'll get back to that soon...

I am claiming 2008 and this shall be my best year yet. I'm not saying there won't be tears and arguments. That would be boring. What I'm saying is, I'll take risks, I'll break the rules (okay, maybe just a few), I'll do something exciting that I've never done before. I'll work my ass off but I'll make sure to party hard and get drunk with good friends once in a while. I dunno exactly how all these will happen. But I just know it will.

Looking forward to a great '08!

This is how I want my year to be:

"May this year be filled wih magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you're wonderful, and don't forget to make some art, write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope, somewhere (this) year, you surprise yourself." -- Neil Gaiman

Cheers!
