All I can say is I've done many first times this year that's why my 2010 is such an awesome year.
I've worked (had my internship) in a media organization wherein I was able to meet new and inspiring people in a world full of issues, gossips, truth, facts and different stories of life. I was also involved in a topic that I hate the most: POLITICS. I was an intern during a hard time. A time when the Filipino People are looking forward in electing the new President/Vice President for the betterment of our country. I learned to embrace the thing I hate the most. Thank you for the Discourse Analysis, Political Advertisement Tasks that were assigned to me during that time. Also thank you for our mentors. Thank you for being patient with us. Making an analysis is such a hard work but they have given me guidance all the way. :) To my co interns, thanks for the newfound friendship and different shares of stories. :)
I met one of my idols in the entertainment industry. TV Host Boy Abunda. :))
I know some kids will laugh at me with this but yes! finally I got to party in a Bar with my friends (Acquaintance Party). Party and dance all night. Stayed up late and had an overnight in a friend's house. It's something new because my Mom never allows me to do that. People who are close to me knows that my parents are strict when it comes to overnights. I was very happy and felt a little bit of freedom! Dolce is in Quezon City and I have to go home in Laguna in an unholy hour, come on?! :))
Anyway, it was such an awesome night with me and my college friends though I had blisters on my feet, a day after :))
Having my Sentinel Family, Being Part of The Lyceum Independent Sentinel, Published Articles. with my loorves the journleftovers :)
I would always rant about how I dream to see my name together with an article I've written on a magazine (BTW, my letter is one of the letters of the month in Meg Magazine this December 2010). And before Sentinel, I just dream to see my literary work on our school paper but God gave me more. He gave me an editorial position that I thought I could not have. I realized how hard it is to be an editor. Hard but fulfilling. I'm also glad that I have an AWESOME FEATURES TEAM:) COOLEST and CONSIDERATE SENIOR EDITORS and THE BEST CO STAFFERS. I thought at first, this would all be work. work. work.. Now, My Sentinel Family is one of the reasons why I still choose to have a positive day though the bus ride every Monday morning kills me because of heavy traffic.
I remember my friend, MJ, would say that her course is AB JOURNALISM majoring in Sentinel. The truth is I feel the same way. When I became part of Sentinel I always worry about our feature articles rather than my Rizal, JPL Reports & (kill me!) Thesis.
Then the Team Building happened, The Sentinel staffers became inseparable. We have different personalities but in one way or another we always find a way to amuse each other. Oh no! I'm really bragging here but they are the most awesome people that came in my 2010. I love them so much!
The Enchanted Kingdom Experience:
I have been to Enchanted Kingdom for the nth time but its my first time to be with my College Friends. The experience is EPIC. THE HORROR HOUSE that until now would make me laugh everytime I remember how much we scream and curse the haunted place. AND THAT ULTIMATE TOWER RIDE!
and of course, My girls are complete in the house. Airiz, Eliza, and Debbie. They'd kill me if they'll see their yagit photo because they're too lazy to take a bath. So let's just not put the photos :) I love them to the highest level of much (huh?!).
And a year ender get together of my High School Barkada. I missed them so much. I even had a long kwentuhan moments with my guy bestfriend,Jendel. :) Bonding with my Bratinellaloorves. <3
What's the first time? My Mom allowed me to go home uber late. :)) Next time talaga overnight na. *crosses fingers*
Happy Happy New Year. Goodbye 2010. Thanks for the new found friends and family. Super thank you for all the rekindled and stronger friendship . Thank You Lord. Thank You for the mistakes committed and for the lessons learned. thank you for the words, phrases, sentences I make. Thank you for the books I've read. thank you for my family. Thank you for everything. I will surely miss you 2010. I promise to be better this 2011. I LOVE YOU. :)
Added to that, is little by little I am making my dreams into reality. I always say that I want to inspire people! I'm so glad when I've seen in a blog post that someone from the other side of the world that I don't even know called me her "christmas miracle" see here Thanks Again for inspiring me to be better and to inspire more people.
toodles, kristina
