A Dash of Ash: 2017 Timeline

I started sharing annual look backs in 2012. Time flies and it has given me so much love and joy, and a few shots of heartaches. 2017 has been a year of growth, well, at least for me. It wasn't just physical growth, although there was plenty of that- haha! Hello bigger tummy and bigger flab! There was also a lot of new, uncharted emotional territory. I know it's a crazy ride. I tried hard enough to deal with my emotions.

Embracing singlehood at the age of 30ish has been both terrifying and enlightening. It gave me some of my deepest fears and self-awareness. I consider myself fortunate to have met someone who has brought me nothing but pure joy. Anyways, this post isn’t about that topic, let’s get going.

Here's to 2017, one of the most wonderful year.

January: Started the year with high school friends (mini reunion) then I participated in Color Manila, my first ever fun run. It's thrilling, exhausting, and a little messy!

CWT Ph also joined Australia Day. :)

February: I didn't have a Valentine's date, but I had a great time with my colleagues and friends. I traveled to Batangas to see an old friend. A few short trips with friends in Bulacan and Clark.

Cell group

March: In preparation for my best friend's wedding, I began a diet plan and 'fitness' activity this month. And, on the contrary, we went on a lot of food trips.

CWT also participated in the Isla Verde 1M light project.

April: A quick family trip to Tagaytay and Nuvali. This is also our first long drive together. We traveled to Pangasinan for Holy Week. It’s worth remembering.
