It was 31st, last day of the year, last day of my work week… Diana exclaimed when she saw I have about 8 Alaxan Fr in my bag… I told her I have been sick and without it… I would have not able to get up everyday and go to work… I have a cold, and the weather does not help at all… specially in the early morning when I wake up, having to go to work… my throat is sore… my nose is runny… my back hurt like hell… and my temperature shoots up in the evening… I have considered not going to work, but then my supervisor can’t understand how could I be sick when I just got back from more than a week vacation… and I was also thinking it will just be a few days more, for 2 consecutive quarters, my attendance will be 100%... So, it was the hell with it, I am going to work! Drug me up!
I should have been working on reopening Xanfactor... with new stories starting January 1… and doing progress report here… but as I said I was sick...
And so then, it is New Years Eve… what do we have here…
I thought it was a pretty good year for me… sure, there were 2 deaths in the family—my uncle and kuya—there were trials that threaten my call center career… and then there was that typhoon that led me down on four at a muddy floor… but then, I am here, am I not…? Stronger… and hopefully better… Why linger on the negative, specially that I have triumphed over them...?
So what’s up 2010…? You may call it resolutions and puke… I call it, planning and yearly projection… Besides, I think, resolution is promising to quit smoking while you smoke as you tell that to yourself over and over again… I am not quitting smoking… unless maybe, just maybe, I’ll give it a shot, if the right person asked for it… like if that person is a cutie wearing a white robe and buys me dinner, regardless if he is as old as my mom…
Don’t ask…
This is planning… setting up goals… and try to make a clear projection of the coming year… every successful company does this… and usually, the plan is to get more money coming in… which is actually my goal this year… I have always been with money, rather, I have always have something on my pocket to buy myself a meal when I am hungry… and something nice... I have no reason to complain in that aspect… I really have not struggled strolling down a mall and seeing something I like and cannot buy… which I thought is the point of why I go to work everyday, five days a week… so, if I see something I like, I can go in inside the shop and buy it without question, without dilemma… a good philosophy… for really, wouldn’t it be oh so frustrating if despite working your ass off, still cannot buy what you want… making you ask, what is the point?
Note: it is good philosophy only if you are paying in cash and not with a card… I have always maintained that if I am not able to pay for something in cold cash, it meant, I can’t afford it… to which I will ask myself why? You should ask yourself the same question…
I am thinking on making 2010 a financial awareness year… for though, as mentioned above, that I have been lucky with having some money, I don’t know, how much money do I have and if I should have more money… and where is it going… I have always been about getting myself through the next pay out and getting that new shirt or gadget… this year, I plan to see how else can I get some more money… and to see if by not buying that shirt I just kind of like I could afford something more expensive acquisition…
I am to try to see what I can do to bring more money in and at the same time getting my money’s worth… I still don’t know how to do that, but I think I would be force to for I plan to apply for a housing loan through Pagibig fund this year—end of first quarter, beginning of second quarter… that will impact my pay check…
Anyhow, Happy New Year…
