2010: Easy Come, Easy Go

I haven’t blogged for over a month now. Everything’s going both downhill and uphill and I’ve been too busy with travel, work and hanging out with friends. I lost the blogging energy, in short. But 2010 is about to end and it is just customary to do a recall-type blog post of it.

This year didn’t run fast and I could barely remember the events of the first half due to the many surprising and new happenings in life that came.

I don’t have much time so let’s start on with the list (not in chronological order):

1. I was cramming through my thesis work in the first 3 months. The perfectionist, OC and lazy personalities clashing wasn’t an easy one to handle.

2. I got employed in my current job even before I got hold of my sablay (toga equivalent in UP).

3. GRADUATION! I graduated cum laude at school. It just came.

4. I learned Nihongo in 4 months time and I still am not an expert. But I’m literate enough to survive Japan. ;-)

5. I went back to Manila for WordCamp 2010. My first WordCamp. :smile:

Quality Goals For 2010

Okay that sounded very much Project Management-ish or Software Engineering-ish but all I meant to say is that I have created a list, sort of a New Year’s Resolutions list. I avoided THIS since Christmas and then hours before 2010 I made one. I told myself never to create a resolutions list because they all tend to be left behind and forgotten (for me haha). But now I have one. Anyways, it doesn’t matter. Let me call them quality goals instead.

1. Get fit, be healthy – I plan to start running next year, prolly on January’s 2nd week. Will have to check if the sports complex is okay. I’m really ‘unfit’ though the scale tells my height-weight ratio is absolutely on the healthy level. But I don’t look healthy. Tss my tummy’s bulging haha. As a computer science student I am entitled to an unhealthy lifestyle — sitting all day long in front of the laptop. It’s time to use these God-given legs. Run, Bryan, run! (I think I share a similar goal with John Carl?)

2. Project 365 – I’m going to do this before it becomes a cliche! A project undertaken by Kimmy Chau from USA and Helgaholic from the Philippines and several other cool guys around the world. It’s a take-a-photo-of-yourself-for-365-days project and I think I’d love to do this for 2010. Cool huh. Wait for my own set on Flickr, uh-huh?

My 2009 Is Amazing, 2010 Should Be Better

I write this post before the new year comes to remember the good and bad things that I have done and that has happened to me this year 2009.

On a general note, 2009 is an amazing year for me. While I hear a lot whining about how terrible their 2009 is, I sit here smiling inside of how good my year came to be. A little recall: 2008 is one of the really terrible years for me. I had enemies, fall backs, insecurities and I forgot the other ones. I promised myself to fix my life come 2009. I guess I did. And that’s how I came to love 2009. Because it made me the person that left 2008 a better, stronger and wiser one.

1. February 21, 2009 is the day I officially became a member of Cebu Bloggers Society. It was in Enovlink, Jones. Mark Monta persuaded me to attend the meeting so I could officially become a member. I braced myself up and went to their meeting. At first I was reluctant to join the group as I was a very shy kid. But good thing I decided to. CBS makes up much of the reasons why I love my 2009. It’s not the events and the freebies. It’s the people that’s important to me now. They absolutely changed me for the better. Thank you CBS.
