2008: Mid-Year Check

It's been half a year since I made a list of my plans and goals this 2008. See my "Bye 2007, Hello 2008" blog. I've been busy this year but suddenly, checking the status of my New Year's resolution, popped into my mind. So while compiling and testing the source codes, I write this blog.

Ano na nga ba nangyari sa mga nilista kong TODOs? May natupad ba, matutupad pa lang or malabong matupad this year. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm...

1. Save money and spend salary wisely. Aba in "fairview", may kakarampot na laman pa naman ang savings ko. Hahaha! Mas mabuti na yun kesa naman sa wala. So ang tanong tumutupad ba ako o hindi? D ko alam, andami ko excuses at ayoko na isa-isahin. Pero sabi nga sa Cosmo magazine na binigay ni Frangy, "Don't make your expenses as an excuse why you can't save. If you want to save money, then do it."
2. Look for a new apartment for the family. Cge look lang ha. Nagawa ko naman pero walang magkasya sa budget eh. Ang mamahal ng mga paupahang bahay parang may mga ginto sa loob. Hahaha! So sad to say, eto ay hindi naman.
3. Apply for a housing loan. My ultimate material goal in life is to have a house and lot that I can call mine/ours. I have tried to achieve this goal and realized, it is impossible to do it this year. Oh no wala pa akong natutupad na goal this year. Sana yung next oo na.
4. Career Growth. Yehey! 100% yes ako dito. Whew! May isa na. Wot! Wot! Salamat sa Diyos. Sana magtuluy-tuloy. I believe most of my friends can relate to it. Maybe it's our year tlga.
5. Not so demanding girlfriend. Well, I know tinutupad ko to...di ba Bert? *wink*
   
6. 1-week vacation in Bikol. Nakauwi nga ako ng Bikol kaso 4days lang ako dun eh. Nakapag-attend ng graduation ni Dimple. Cge pwede na rin kahit d 1 week. Kunsabagay kng isasama ung travel hours plus SL ko, 1 week na un.
7. Go to Bohol OR Palawan AND outing with Berks. Partly yes etong item na to. Last May 8-12, we went to Palawan. Mahigit isang buwan na pala nakakalipas. Partly no naman kc di kami nagkaron ng outing ng BERKS.
8. Improve my relationship with God and trust Him all the time. Oooops! Tinamaan ako bigla. Sorry po if sometimes i worry too much at nawawalan ako ng tiwala. Oh no! May indi na nmn ako tinutupad...4 na...
9. Try to be positive in all circumstances. Yeah i keep on trying to be positive lagi pero sometimes hinihila ako ng pagiging nega ko. Pero mostly nmn positibo nmn ako mag-isip.
10. Lose weight. Malaking HINDI. hahaha! Although di tumataas ang weight ko pero di nababawasan. Kailangan na tlga magseryoso sa pagpapapayat. Pano naman sarap kumain eh.

So resulta...marami pa akong hindi nagagawa. Nakakalungkot kalahating taon na pero di ko pa nasisimulan ang ibang goals ko this year. Pero sobrang saya nmn ng marealize kong may mga natupad na rin sa mga TODOs ko...which means nadagdagan na nman ang blessings. Wot! Wot! Sabi nga you can't achieve it sa isang bagsakan lang. There is a right time for everything.
