New things

It's probably too early rewind the year and reminisce. but i just think many new things happened this year that are worth recognizing. things i did not expect. some good, some bad, but all in all made me a better person.
1. my new boss
so he's the director...probably the most alienated person in the office, because he's the boss. but he's not bad actually. and with the few months i worked with him, i learned a lot. and i realized more than ever my worth and my potentials. I guess with my new boss came a new found self-respect and confidence that he brought out in me.
2. my new place. In my mind, I call my landlord Mr Wilson (yes from dennis the menace), you already know why. it's a little bit expensive but i like it becaus ethe community is peaceful, it is clean, close to the laundry shop and grocery. It is more spacious than my old room. it has a small veranda where i can dry out my clothes and feed stray cats. and the best thing about it is that it was flood safe during Ondoy, i almost could not believe it. Thank God! Sometimes i get lonely but at least i learn to be strong and independent.
3. my new boys. I dated quite a few times this year. Most were fun. Many brought about realizations and conclusions about men. When I was very young i thought i was that nerdy and ugly no one noticed me in school. I realized that beauty came with maturity. But there’s one guy who hasn’t asked me out, ever. I pray we finally get the chance.
4. my new lifestyle. Well this one is not quite new. I have always preferred an active lifestyle. I try to walk , run and dance when i get the chance. But now, im working out quite regularly, at least 3 times a week. thanks to my new membership to the gym with my good buddy, aries.
5. my new footwear. I try to buy durable foot wear that lasts for years. And last year I did not buy any new shoes because they all seemed to be in good condition. But this year, almost all of them got really worn out and resigned. My rubbershoes, my leathershoes, my sandals. It was time i bought some new pairs for my new journeys. I got the basics again of course. Sturdy rubber shoes for my work out , cute doll shoes for office work and casual wear, and lovely thong sandals for gimik nights.
6. my new me. I cried many times this year, because of different reasons, of different people. But i have become stronger, wiser and more beautiful. It is still the same old me but with a new outlook, with a stronger faith, and more vibrant personality.


Sometimes it takes a few new unexpected things to happen in one's life to be able to have a new perspective, a new feeling, a new hope.
