Twenteen-one

Last June, I made a list of 21 things that I wanted to try to do in celebration of my 21st birthday. Last, Thursday, December 15, 2011, was my deadline. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to do all of them. However, I did accomplish half plus one of the items:

Learn to bake - for real

Go to church more frequently

Send group messages more frequently

Ice Skate

Go bowling

Sign-up for gym or work-out at home

Learn how to commute to Makati from Alabang

Enroll in Japanese classes again

Learn how to cook Filipino cuisines

Have a massage on a non-working day

Review 15 essays a day at work

Save up for Christmas gifts

Travel to another country

Upgrade wardrobe

Lose some lbs.

Treat my family to dinner

Take more pictures and post them in my blogs

Get a new laptop

Visit an orphanage

Update my planner frequently
Talk to someone I haven't talked to for a long time

Making this list was quite an experience. Some of the items in the list were quite easy, but some were really difficult. For some, I managed to do, unconsciously, the opposite (e.g. Losing lbs.). And from all of these, I do realize that what I needed to do or needed to have for myself is time, because it has been something that I have been depriving myself for the last two years. For next year, I will be giving myself just that. Therefore, these items, accomplished or not, will be carried on. Some will be continued, and some will be started, and I don't mind if this list gets longer.

I'm so excited for another year!
