The Year that was 2005...

Ok, so I'm sort of getting ahead of myself this time. It's not yet 2006 yet and I'm writing as if 2005 passed already. I'm just excited to sum up the whole year since I just turned twenty three last week.

This year was all about new beginnings. I started with having someone in my life who literally changed every tiny bit of my life. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining. I needed someone who could truly show me that there was more to life than being jaded. I tried to figure things out as we went along our relationship and soon, I found myself looking at a brand new me. It took lots of guts on his part to stick it out with my stubborn self. I'm not perfect, and I don't intend to be, but I guess even I had to agree that I was a better me because of him.

Another new beginning started last June 17, 2005. It was the day we chose to open a rather risky investment called ORANGE CHICKEN! Everyone at home was having sleepless nights and 18-hour work hours, but it was worth it. Things are not perfect yet, but we're all working hard to do something about it. Putting up a business is not as simple as other people think. It gave me stress, bulges, eyebags, and one simple pleasure: being my own boss. In the end, the store gave us hope that we could still make it here at home sa Pinas. We don't know what the future of the store holds but we can only hope for a better and bigger business.

Yet another start was the fact that I'm starting to consider a career in writing. I used to be realy insecure with my writing but I guess all I needed was someone to push me and believe in me. So, this is it, I hope it really goes well.

There were lots of arguments, situations, circumstances, and the like that makes this year another one to remember. I think I'll bring the rest of the good ones next year.


On another note, I would love to see someone get struck by lightning. **I cross my fingers and wish some more....No pun intended, just wanted to make someone smile, you know how much I love you... =)
