Come Next Year...

          I've always believed that I am LUCKY. Being born under the Year of the Dragon, just about any year is my year. 2012 is special because this year falls under that Chinese zodiac. I am so blessed so far midway through my year. Let 2012 be a preparation for 2013 when I am planning to have new adventures. That's the key word - preparation. For now, planning is very important.

           I'll spend the rest of the years looking for my second job. I'm not really a fan of horoscopes but number 2 has always been lucky for me, hehe, so i trust my second job to be more fulfilling, more productive, more financially satisfying and all that. Let me stress the last description. I have siblings to send to school (one is an engineering student!) so there's no way I'll transfer to a lower-paying job regardless of what it may be. Who would want to demote herself? In fairness to my current job, most of the time I really get paid for doing a no-brainer. Something I don't plan to do for the rest of my career, though.


           I want to use my passport for the first time this year! Singapore would be the more realistic getaway. I also want that Michael Kors bag so badly but I have to pay debts which would be finished around November of this year. If heaven wont forbid, I want to accomplish paying my obligations and have my bag and my Asian trip this year. Who knows, I might just get so lucky.
The 16k bag that I want. Well, it's one of the two MK I want.

          What I am so thankful of is that the once-impossible things are happening to me now. My dreams, surprisingly, are all within my reach with just stronger push. I am excited again, wondering what  tomorrow will bring.


            I must admit that the last year was predictable. Everyday seemed a routine saved for a number of vacations I had. There was nothing to look forward to at work. My job isn't my everything and definitely not who I am but I spend eight hours a day there five times a week. I'm just plain bored. Imagine me getting promoted three times already but I do the same kind of work for two and a half years dealing with the same LGU, the same area, same excel files, etc. The company brings in a lot of changes but those are the changes I dont want. So instead of me blabbing about all the things I hate, I figured out it is time for me to move on to another job. Just to be fair to the company and of course, to myself.


          So next year for sure, I'll have that dream bag, the Asian trips (maybe I'll have two if I cant make the first one this year), and money for our house's renovation. This last strong southwest monsoon emphasized the age of our house and its need for maintenance. That's my new project next year. I have so many plans in my mind. I am ecstatic about those and just for that feeling of being alive, I thank the Lord. A slow and sure climb to the top is maybe what God has for me. Whatever it is, I will be happy to find out.
