Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I did, most of it hehe! http://i-am-me-nyem.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html
Sa school I was able to get the scholarship. Great. Met new friends too, lovely and sweet new friends!!!
Office – was able to go to the 4-Saturday Finance training at UP Diliman. Man, I have always wanted to go to that school. Finally! Finally!
Church - went to Malis, mission point just this December. Well, at least I did what I nominated ayt?
Family – StarCity last Dec 22 made up for lack of gifts during their birthdays! Loads of fun!
Love – lots of it! And more to come!!!
More Love…More Laugh theme surely spells 2007! Adieu to double O7 =P I love you!
Did anyone close to you give birth?

Did anyone close to you die?
Amang Ben died 40 days before Christmas =(
What countries did you visit?
Hindi pa din ako nakaalis ng bansa ngayong taon =(
But I will definitely see Brunei and Malaysia this February! Ayiy! Hopefully, Australia too but going down under is still really something far fetched so lets go to Brunei and Malaysia first! Hehe! (halata ba excited!)
What would you like to have in 2008 that you lacked in 2007?
A baby (joke lang!). More time with family, I guess. And lots & lots of time with duds!!!
What date from 2007 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
Sobrang dami:
August 28 – a date to remember
August 31 - my birthday & statistics’ final exam =( and a date with batman! September 21 - date ulit @ diamond hotel, roxas boulevard. (hehe puro date ang ginawa ko ng last months of 07)
October 12 – a tight embrace and a sweet kiss! (pagbigyan nyo na lola nyo kung sobrang mushy)
December 24 and 25 – happiness in action!!! Days after I am still grinning!
What was your biggest achievement of the year?
scholarship for the first and second trimester in DLSU

What was the best thing you bought?
Randell!!! And I really really love him na! Huge help for my finals, school paper and presentation. Camera too, 6.1megapix!

hectic december
december started with lots of rushes!
well, december is usually "hectic" due to lots of work in the office and church too. and with schooling this year, i could hardly manage to juggle all three.
work requires me to make several runs of financial projection that will meet the scrutiny of the board members. as in revision after revision. (walang kamatayang revision ito! kakaloka)
i was again elected auditor at church. and that means attending the planning for the whole year etc. (kakapagod din, pero manageable naman) if u knew the mess finance team has undergone this year u'd knew why the team's need to prepare for the coming year. glad that chaos is over. order is gradually coming =) Amen!
then to add to the already hectic schedule, school requirement came in. there was this 40-pager risk assessment report and presentation on PNB for risk management. i got leah and sha as team mates for this report. buti n lang these girls are great! i love them. we finished the report on the day before the deadline. hehe not exactly, we even had a prob on the day of presentation. when sha's laptop broke down and she has to make a presentation again. glad she was able to finish it in an hour!
and then there were these final exams for financial economics and risk mngt
with all these, we can't stop Christmas from approaching. and i'm glad at least after all this chaos, something wonderful is on its way. all else will seem insignificant. (not in its entirety though, but hey it will lessen the burden ayt?)
i am happy that God has given me lots of reason to be thankful for! He has been so great. and hopefully I'll be able to give thanks to the savior not only during this season but always.
Its the season of hope friends! A season of love! May all of us abound in hope and love this coming Christmas and all the days of the coming year.
Merry Christmas and Cheers to 2008!
