This Is My December

It's December 1 tomorrow, that means in a few hours I will be in Tiendesitas to attend to the IBS Year Ender Party. Hollywood is the theme and I will be using an old black dress (as much as I want to go as a Victoria's Secret model, hahaha!). AND I can't wait to see my officemates dressed up. Parang prom.

THis week was so full of learning for me. I attended the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People for 3 whole days. It was very veryeducational and it just taught me to see my life from where I am right now to where I want to be. I never thought that I'd learnso much from the workshop, I thought it was just about how to be successful, earn money, be efficient...The principles are actually Bible-based! And it's really about living, loving and making a mark. The materials and the giveaways were really good, too. And we had to watch these short films and they really got into me.

Sunday afternoon is the time June and I set aside so I can share with him the 7 Habits. There's a booklet/contract that he has to signafter I complete practicing one habit per week. I can't wait to start!!!

Talking about a revolution, again, in Makati. I am not happy about it but I am still believing that things can change in my country.

Yesterday I met with a college classmate who just got from training in Japan. His name is Vanjo and he was one of the few close friends that I had in UST. It's funny how working life turned out for 3 of my good friends in college, him, Namron and June. 4 years ago, who would have thought we'll be working in the same company and they will be flying off work in another country? It's a good deal. I can't wait to see them soar to greater heights!

These are the dreams that I have for today:

Earn my first million before I'm 30
Donate more than a million pesos to poor people before I return to heaven
Be married before I'm 26
Have 2 children
Cook June's favorite dishes
Donate more than a million pesos to my church
Live in a foreign country for at least a year
Study in the U.S.
Teach
Travel the whole world with June

Last night I watched him eat his chickenjoy at Jollibee. I videotaped him as he ate.

First time we saw each other at the airport, hug agad! We were just laughing and we kept on holding each other's hands and looking at how our hair looked.

God is really good, eh?
