On turning 26

And so the blogger is now 26 years old, yay! 

I am now officially in my late twenties, but seriously, I don’t wanna grow old. and here are my reasons: 

• I don’t want to have a boyfriend-yet! (not until the person that I liked the most proposed, or if we share some mutual feelings for each other)
• I want to enjoy everything while im not attached to anyone around (I had so many girlfriends who are now stay-in house wives who regrets being tied down at the early age; some asked me to hang out with them, which is ok, but because of their husbands they were having their own curfews which is so NOT cool…)
• I don’t want to be dependent to anyone (and I really mean not being dependent to anyone who can rely on, as much as possible I want to stand out and do everything within my reach without anyone’s help)
• I want to do something more (and this means going back to school, explore the world, meet new people, seeing fresh faces, learning and looking for something new and exciting)
• And lastly, I want to help my parents (in financial means, of course!)

But that doesnt mean that I had no plans to settle down. It’s just that I want to enjoy everything around me, while waiting for someone who can swept me off my feet.  And also, I want to be a successful wannabe by helping the family first before tieing a knot to someone. So maybe having a boyfriend is ok but being married is NOT! 

Anyway, I’m glad that this whole year is a blast, and I realized so many things that reflect in my life, met so many friends and I think I become more of a positive person. And as much as I want to retain old lifestyles, I think there’s no harm in trying new things…  The experiences that I gained in the last twenty-five years makes me become more of the person that I am right now. And I tend to learn more and to explore more. 

And so I would like to share my year-long plans for while im still 26: 

• Having a boyfriend (who I really love the most and would love me back. Not just this scumbag who would like to have me because they had no more options… XD) 
• Going back to school (and im still in search for a “perfect” school that offers a short course on animation and/or graphic design, in a budget-friendly price.)
• On buying a DSLR (I envy my officemates who had a professional camera with them, and also cali, my choirmate who has an Canon EOS… Mom doesnt want me to lend her digicam and Sister’s camera is just too obsolete. Also want to take pictures of beautiful things around me, seriously.)
• Music lessons (because of the undying love for music, I really want to take a short course on music and to play some instruments, maybe a piano or a guitar is fine, violin is much much better )
• Vacation somewhere in the Philippines (other from my home province, I want to travel and explore other sides of my home country… I think it’s kinda awesome!)

So here’s my christmas/birthday gift… care to give me one? (just kidding!)

And as for my birthday wish? just one thing: to have a stable career as a thriving SEO marketer and a chorister at the same time. That’s it.

So here ends my birthday post. Hope everyting’s fine on this day onwards. I will definitely looking forward to the brighter light for many years to come.
