A blessed 2011 it has been...

Hey lovely readers!

I know I have not been blogging a lot lately. It's not because I don't have anything interesting to blog about; I kinda have a lot (product reviews, hauls, etc.). However, I literally have been swamped with work that I really thought of quitting my job. Like seriously! I even sent out my CV's to companies already.

But, this post is not to whine about my job. I wanted to make a post on the last day of the year to look back at my 2011. There have been a lot of things that happened to me this 2011. Bad things have happened too but I am glad that the good things outweighed the bad. Here is a rundown of the great things that happened in 2011:

1. I turned 22 on March 1, 2011. I know that for most people, reaching your twenties is a bad thing. Yeah, we're getting old. But we should really be thankful for every year that we get to celebrate our birthday. We should be thankful for our lives! I am also thankful that in 2011, I didn't have any major illness, nor did any member of my family. I hope the new year will also be illness-free. ;)

2. I felt like a jet setter in 2011. Well, I've only been to other places in the Philippines in 2011, but I traveled a lot this year. In April, I went to Cebu for Holy Week. Then a week after Cebu, I went to Davao and stayed there for another week. Well, I went to Davao for work related reasons, but who cares? Haha. Then in July, I went to Boracay. Boracay had to be my most memorable trip yet! I just loved the island, the blue waters and the white sand! In September, I went to Davao again for work related reasons. To add to those travels are the two times I went home to visit my family. Whew!

3. I survived my first year of work! Ohh my gosshh! I never thought it would happen but I did survive my first year of work at my job! I admit that this first year has been stressful, both emotionally and mentally. But I am happy that I was able to survive. :)

4. In 2011, I have seriously started my collection of beauty related products! And now I think I have a lot! Haha. My collection is seriously growing that I feel like I should do a make-up collection post. I hope to discover more good quality products in 2012 and I am looking forward to expanding my collection!

5. I started blogging in 2011! Yep, it was during the last quarter of 2011 that I started blogging. I have always wanted to blog but my tight schedule was always in the way. However, I decided to start blogging because it is a cool way to express myself, my interests and hobbies and to learn about other things as well. Ever since I started blogging, I have met some cool people in the blogging world too! I know I have not been faithful in writing blog posts, but I plan to remedy this. ;)

2011 has been a very blessed year. I have been blessed with good health, a job, a great family and good friends. I hope 2012 will bring even more blessings to me, my family, my friends and to the blogging community! I am looking forward to a life changing 2012. I hope I'll meet new friends, blog more, travel more, find a fulfilling job and find myself.

I hope everyone out there had a wonderful 2011 and I hope 2012 will be even more wonderful for you!

Happy New Year!

Till my next blog post!
