Day 1: hopes, dreams, and plans for the next 365 days with a picture of yourself
Cause I wanna start dressing like a decent lady already.
Hopes, dreams and plan. I don't know how to pull this off with a decently written entry so I'm doing this through conventional bullets.
- First and foremost and probably the most urgent thing this year: THESIS. Well, I hope my partner and I will get through this alive. I hope all of us will. May we have the patience to just keep going even if the non-progressive days might dampen our spirits. With hardwork, determination, faith and cooperative hardware tools, we will.
- Be fit. Not really skinny. Just healthy so that I get to live a 100 years or longer with my husband. And I want to start dressing decently and be more confident with how I look cause I'll be starting my professional career soon. I hope that even if I'm tired after school I could still push myself to just move and release those extra pounds. And I promise to be more watchful of things that I eat. I will seriously work on it cause I have my wonderful support group ( brother and boyfriend at least )
- Graduate this year. Cause I've been studying engineering for six years already. I know some people from my university would say that it's normal and that I shouldn't worry about it cause I would graduate eventually. But I want to please my parents by just graduating. It would mean a lot to them more than it would to me. And I really really want them to be proud of me even if they think that I'm just laid back when it comes to my studies. Believe me, If I had a choice I would have graduated on time. So yeah. I hope things would go smoothly as I have planned so that I can graduate. All I need is a chance.
- Train to become a Biomedical Engineer. Truth be told I wanted to take a premed course during college but I thought it would be too expensive to enter Med School and I'm horrendously terrified of frogs. I wouldn't think that I could get pass all the dissection classes. I decided to take up ECE instead cause I wanted to go to Taiwan before. But reasons like that couldn't really count so my stay in college gave me a lot of realizations on what I really wanted to be. I haven't really given up my dream to be in the field of Medicine. I just took a whole different path to get there. I hope I could train for companies in the Health/Medical Industry to kick off my future career. And to get bio units for this too. And when I have extra money in the future I would enter Med School. But that would be really really far from the present.
- Be closer to God. I don't really go to church occasionally and I haven't been really a faithful Catholic but I really don't believe wholly in religion. I just believe in God. And I want to strengthen my bond with Him in my own ways. In what ways, I will figure out soon.
- More outing with friends and loved-ones. Like this February we will have our Iloilo trip (Thank You Cebu Pacific) and on June our Cebu Trip. I want to go to places when I already have a less tight schedule due to academics. I want to go to Nayong Pilipino again, which I recently found out to be in Clark already. I want to go to Cavite and Batangas and visit Greggi's relatives. I want go explore places that I've never been before even Intramuros or Manila Zoo. Just somewhere new and fun.
- Learn how to budget seriously. So I could start my lifetime savings and will not have to rely to my parents all the time.
- Be more outgoing. I'm shy, if that's not obvious. I don't really talk to people unless I've been talking to them for awhile already. This might cause me a lot of problems when I get out of school and into the real world. I just feel awkward when I'm around people I'm not close with. Help me, please?
- Learh how to swim. Cause it sucks to seat by the stairs of the pool while your friends are having the time of their lives.
- Be a better person. Well everyday I work on it. Cause everyday's a new day, right?
So that's a concrete plan that I will work hard for the whole year. As for the hopes part, I just hope this will be a good year not just for me but for my famliy, my friends and for the whole world.
Oh, and for the dream. I hope Mayday Parade decides to come back to the Philippines when I have already graduated. Hihihi. \m/
