Looking back at 2010

Family: After three years of not seeing my family, I got to see them in February! It was amazing. I didn't care how uncomfortable the flight was going there, all I wanted was to see them. The day after I got there, we (my mom, bro, bro's gf, and I) went to Boracay. It was fun. I missed the sun. I met up with a lot of friends. My cousins and I had a lot of get togethers. I had a welcome-home/birthday/reunion/despedida party. It was awesome. I missed a lot of family events. Birthdays, reunions, and weddings. Nakakapikon. Tough price to pay ... for what? Ewan.

Love: I let go of someone that has been special for a long time. It was a long overdue breakup. Not too bad of a break up though. We're still cool. I made new friends along the way then I met someone and he's been great. There are some challenges and complications but hopefully we can work through those. I really hope things work out because although I'm not old, I'm not super young either. No time to play around, not that I ever did. All I know is he's great. I just need to trust that he won't hurt me. I need to trust what he says. I need to let go of some things and accept the fact that I can't control and know everything.

Friends: I lost some friends, reconnected with some, got closer to some, and made new ones. Technology indeed does wonders.

Health: I've been blessed with a good health. Other than the occasional migraine and tummy issues, everything has been good.

School: Graduation happened in January. It was an amazing feeling to graduate for the second time. LOL. Nursing school was no joke. There were nights with only 30 minutes of sleep. There were days that all I saw was crap and butt coz I had to clean my patients. There were so many events that I couldn't go to because I had to study. I didn't go home for three years. Graduation really made me feel like it was worth it. Now the problem is to find a job. I went back to school to get the BSN degree. So far, so good. I just want to get it over with.

Work/Career: Although I have my RN license, I haven't been fortunate to land a job. But then again, I haven't really been applying so can't complain much.

Goals and Resolutions for 2011:
- Lose 15 lbs in 3 months. I already lost 5 the past month, so I know I can do it. I just need to commit to it.
- Find a new job.
- Learn how to trust.
- Be less of an anal control freak.
