2011 Bucket List

Posted by Ms. Insane at 1:34 AM
2010 hasn't been too good to me, even if I think I've been nice. Anyway, since it's a new year and a new decade at the same time, I have decided to just look forward to this year and the coming years instead of looking back and cry over the things that happened in the past.

I guess I have to accept that all things happen for a reason. My 2010 started with a bang. I spent my New Year with my family and even had a wonderful vacation with them. Even if I lost my job in December 2009, because the company where I was working at closed down due to the global financial crisis, I immediately found a new job before that year ended. My work went well and I was given officer duties in 3 months time. I started a beauty business in the first half of the year. Everything went well at those times. But then, after my birthday in June, everything started to fall down, one by one. My business partner left me which made me decide to stop operating my business. I lost my job in October and just before the year ends, I had a HUGE disagreement with my parents. I don't know why everything happened. I can't even figure out how they all started. I spent New Year's Eve crying and praying, hoping that the new year will give me another life, another happiness. I still have the faith in Him. I still believe that He knows why I should go through these. So now, I want to start this year with a smile, full of hope and positivity. I just want to make the past my steps to become a stronger and better person. I have more to do as days go by. I still have my dreams and I will never get tired of dreaming and trying to achieve them all. I want to learn how to focus this year. I want to focus on my goals and I want to look back at this post at the end of this year, with a huge grin on my face, because I know that I was able to achieve them all. I want you to become my witnesses and with your support, I going to have the drive to reach them.

So without further ado, here are my priorities for the Year 2011:
1. Get a decent job from a stable company and become a regular employee.
2. Talk to my parents and settle what I have to settle with them. They are my family and I don't want to lose them.
3. Save money. I want to see at least 20,000 at the end of the year. That's me being realistic.
4. Lose weight. I gained a lot of weight last year. As in A LOT! My partner and I have already started eating less and healthier food in January 2nd. So my goal is to lose AT LEAST 20lbs. this year. Better if I'll be able to lose more. =)
5. Travel. I know it's nonparallel to number 3, but I really do want to go to somewhere this year 'cos I didn't last year. Local travel will do. =)
6. Volunteer. This has been my long time to-do thing, and I will finally do it this year.
7. Have AT LEAST 10 followers by the end of the year. Help!!! =)

Even if I already do have priorities, there are still other things that I wish I will be able to do or to have this year. And those are the following:
1. Get myself an SLR. I want to have a Nikon D5000. But to be more realistic, a Canon Cybershot will do for I am only using my mobile phone's camera for now. =)
2. I want to go and spend a weekend at a beach resort once every quarter.
3. End this year with better locks - not damaged and with a different hairstyle. I know it sounds easy to achieve but maintaining the kind of hair I have in my country is a bit pricey. So it is a want for me this year. =)
4. Move to a new apartment with my partner.
5. Start a food business or a salon business. These two are my dream businesses and I will have them soon. I know! =)

I'll come back to this post from time to time to check if I've done them all. I'll also add more whenever I think of a new one.

Have a great day!

With much love,
