Encourage Someone to Create a Blog

let’s talk about my bucket list. :)

i was able to complete a task without even me knowing it. wanna know what is it?

9. encourage someone to create a blog.

a3c (his blog name) and i have been officemates for quite a while now. we were in the same shift and sometimes, we share the same interest. i was the one who introduced him to google reader, to camille co and a lot of other bloggers. we even planned to create a lookbook account but that will be too much for me, maybe for him its not.

he is into travelling. because of blogging, he was able to go to ilocos without spending much.

before, he really wanted to start a blog in order to document all of his adventures but he was still unsure. last week, i also informed him that i have a blog. yes, he is one of the two people in our company that knows i write. haha. every time he reads my post, i really don’t know if i will really be okay about it.

enough of me, here is the link of a3c’s awesome blog.

friends, kindly welcome him and show him some bloggers love. haha.

also, david guison, be scared, be very scared. kidding! haha.

Bucket List

since my dear self scheduled post failed (i really don’t know what happened, haha), i am creating a bucket list. it took me a week to finally finalize what i need to do this year. it was really tough. though i know that i should treat this as a challenge in order for me to motivate myself, i have to also work on certain things.

compromise is synonymous with reality. and in my simple, boring and humble life as a regular office employee, i really need to work on things that will definitely work with my schedule, my pay and the other responsibilities that goes along with being a grown up.

i really have to start acting, thinking and deciding as a grown up.

with that being said, here’s the list.

the 10 things i must accomplish in 2012

1. get new gadgets! – i have three things on my list this year – a laptop, a camera and a blackberry. since i sold my old laptop in exchange of a cow, i need to get a new one. getting my online account hacked really alarmed the hell out of me. this is on top of the things that i need to get this year. i am really not techie, but since i decided to maintain this blog, i badly need it. i really don’t know if i can take good pictures, but getting a camera will really help me. aside from that, i can also post pictures here. that will be sweet. i want a blackberry because i just want to have one. haha.
2. learn to swim – …and hopefully, i will really learn.
3. get my own place – i am still searching for that dream abode. haha. unfortunately, it’s really hard looking for a place that will fit my budget and my demands. but, i am still hopeful. for this one, giving up is really not an option.
4. cook a dish – i really don’t know how to cook. so this will really be a challenge.
5. go solo backpacking or with one friend only – i got the idea from pm, and it will really be an adventure if i will be able to accomplish this.
6. finish a meal with fish on it – ayan na, lumalabas na ang kaartehan ko, haha. i don’t eat fish, and it will be surprising for everyone who knew me that i’ve tried and finish one.
7. fall in love again – i know. the moment has come.
8. take my family on a vacation – since i am working here in manila and my folks are everywhere, it will be amazing if even for just one day, we will be enjoying the same view together.
9. encourage someone to create a blog – i just want someone to have the same experience, that i felt. the moment i started writing again. :)
10. go back to school – going back to school sounds fun. learning new things is always fun.

i think this will do. it’s doable, workable, achievable and it sounds fun – it also come in lower case. i love everything on lower case. haha

definitely, 2012 is my year. i can feel it (sabay arte ng balikat.)
