My 2007 didn't really end well and my January 2008 went flipside on me (to think January hasn't ended!). And while I was nursing my wounds, the wheel of time continues to turn..
I need to bounce back!
Looking for the treasure chest in this shipwreck named January, I found myself with more time and more funds in my hands (indefinitely i suppose) and I figured that I need to be ready for the eventuality of death.
With more time on my hands maybe I can devote more time to, helping around the house, looking after my nephew, watching my health, studying and developing my hobbies and interests, and blogging.
A few days ago I tried doing something I haven't done since high school, ironing my clothes. Guess what, I did a pretty good job, considering I'm a newbie at it once again. I think I'll talk to my grandparents' helper and scour the web for some tips and tricks on ironing! haha!! (maybe I'll blog about it in inxanereality.blogspot.com, watch out for that!)
During those times I got tired of sulking, I turned to my new interest, personal finance, to distract me for as long as possible. And in those times of study, I put a little more attention to my financial goals and plans. And now I am really serious about laying the foundation for my financial security. And with the extra funds I realized in the shipwreck of January, I have the capital to fund that foundation. (watch out for new entries in budgetmanagement.blogspot.com)
I am also thinking of spending more time in the kitchen, since i won't be eating out as much as before, I am looking at the possibility of whipping up happy food from home and to explore how great the foodie is in me.
Lets see how the rest of the year will fare for me! Bahala na si Lord saakin!
Learning for the month of January: Letting go of the Dead is easier than letting go of the Living..
