Dear 2013,
Twas a roller coaster ride. You made me smile, laugh, cry, fall in love at the same time. You've given me much of love yet you broke my heart so bad. At the start of the year, things felt steady for the 1st few months, but guess what, it wasn't!
January was one of the best months, I'd say. I've spent my New Year with my EarthLink Business Folks. Macau and Hong Kong Trip. Euphoria. Sigh. Memories. It was nearly perfect.
What Ive Learned:
Love too much: There is no such thing. The people you care about should always feel as if you love them.

February was full of love. I've spent the entire month with crazy messages, skype dates, cute emails and priceless overseas calls.
What Ive Learned:
Love should be two separate people who don't lose themselves in each other—don't become one entirely different person, but simply the same two people at their very love-filled best. ❤
March- more skype date with my favorite person on earth. Hearing his voice and seeing him online makes me forget that we're 6932.96 miles apart. He's the risk I will always take.
What Ive Learned:
Love is when you're having the worst day, but when you look at him/her all the pain goes away.
April-- i soaked up life away from the hustle and bustle of the metro, spending nearly all my free time at the beach and suburbs. Traveled and enjoyed the islands of Padre Burgos and fall inlove with its beautiful beaches-- Borawan and Dampalitan Islands.
What Ive learned?
Don't waste the sun: Get outside and soak it in.It's like a magnetic attraction that will lift your spirits immediately.
May- another month spent on the beach. Went back to Puerto Galera as I usually do every year with my sister and friends. And yes, it's my boyfriend's birth month too. :)
What I've Learned:
Push yourself to work. Push yourself to relax. Travel more, have fun, be wise and fall in love.

June - With the summer fading, I decided to quit my job due to lame reasons. LOL :)) Despedida parties, Dinner with friends, Weekend full of Music and Fun. etc. Hosted a debut party, met old good friends.
What I've Learned.
As much as you'd like it to, the right decision won't just fall into your lap. Always RETHINK.

July was my last month with Aegis after 5 long years. My heart was battling with my mind. Tough decision, I'd say. It was 5 good years Aegis.
What Ive Learned:
It's ok to feel sad,it's ok to feel nostalgic and it's okay to sink into those melancholy feelings every once in a while. That's life.

August oh my dear August, my birth-month. I've spent much of this time with my family and friends. Visited Nuvali for the 1st time and enjoyed the beauty of nature.
What I've Learned:
When negativity hits you, go home and let yourself sit there for however long you need until things are okay again.

A career does not define you, and your dreams are not set in stone. Everything is perpetually changing. And so are God's plans for us.

November made us so proud as we graduated from our 60 days of classroom training! More certifications to follow. LOL :) Got few starbucks gift cert from our Transition Advocates which eventually helped me get my 2014 Starbucks planner. Yey! It was my 1st time to try Sisha and it was good, not to mention those 'cough' moments. But it was really really good, and yes I wont forget my favorite margarita. Cheers
What I've Learned:
Take pride in your career, and know that everyone has something to teach you. Ask questions, stay curious, and learn as much as you can about anything and everything — then share it.

December was a mess. You're a box of surprises! You were half terrible, dont you know that? Most spent in tears and a lot of Margaritas . I've lost the man i love the most. No warning. No explanation. No emails, no text messages, no facebook messages, no phonecalls, no viber messages. Nothing. Hell. It's December, this is supposed to be a happy month. I don't know what happened to us. No closure, I was just left hanging. Or maybe I am just pretending that I still have him. I cried for days. Spent 31 days with friends, attending Christmas Gatherings, Dinner and after shift coffee date with friends.
What Ive Learned:
Some things, and some relationships, won't go your way. Life is a lesson in letting go.
