Friends

Hi all!
How's your 1st week of 2013?
I'm really grateful to end 2012 and start 2013 with a bunch of "chimakan" friends.
I bet all of you have friends, different kinds of them.
For example...





 I'm really grateful to have them, crazy yet true friends. 
Friends are a bunch who are true to you and themselves
They are comfortable enough to reveal themselves to you and give you their trust.
They tolerate each other's bad habits and embrace their strengths.
Friends are there to cheer you up when you are down and celebrate happy times with you.
Before you do something wrong, they pull you back to the right path.
They listen. They give advises. They cry with you. They laugh with you.

Some may say friends come and go.
No doubt, that's life.
But open up your eyes and see. 
Cherish what you have now. 
Hold on to the true ones and maintain your friendships. 
You will be truly blessed by them. 
Of course, be a good friend yourself too! :D


 Now tell me, what are your friends like?
Are there any habits that you hated but laughed about all the time? :)

A brand new start. A brand new direction.


Happy New Year! It's 2013!

It's a brand new year, a time to...
  • review the past - what has happened?
  • reflect our feelings and behaviors - what have we done?
  • evaluate our goals - have we achieved what we wanted?
  • and set a new goal! 
Some said 2012 was great.
Some asked why the world didn't end.
Yes, we might face difficulties and giving up everything seems to be an easy way out.
But life is not perfect, WE are not perfect. 
New year resolution since last year still have not been met?
Bad things happened in the past?
Mistakes that you have regretted doing? 

Now, tell yourself this...
"2013 is an opportunity. Why the world didn't end? 
It's to give yourself an opportunity to make things right."
It's good to have new year resolutions. 
It gives you a direction, be it old or new.
Set our goals right and focus on it.
It's a note to myself too. 

I'm really grateful for 2012 that I have constantly been inspired by people, passionate people, who are pursuing their dreams and being successful in it. 
The common element I observed or we could say "the key" to their success is their passion.
I also want that too!
I believe it's never too late to explore yourself, to find your passion and dream.
DREAM BIG! We might not achieve it now but eventually, as long as we persist.

My new year resolution is to... 
  1. start a comic blog and my own brand!
  2. learn a new language
  3. get back to my ideal weight - at least be healthy
  4. read more!
Today, I will pick up blogging again. 
Hopefully it could be a consistent update, this time with my own comic! :)
Thanks for taking your time to read, will update more interesting and different post soon!
A toast to a better 2013! *cheers*

p/s: Leslie mentioned that we will never be a new person in every new year, it's a lie, we will still end up being the same person as before. So instead of being a new me, let's be a same but better me. :)

2013 - beginning of a better me.
