We have finally reached the middle of the year. Just the other day I was contemplating and reassessing the goals that I've mentally listed of "Must Do this 2007". So far I still have a lot to do but I realized that compared to last year I'm doin' a-okay! I must not be too hard on myself and give negativity the slight power over me. Just let everything flow and with Gods grace and inspiration the right moment will come.
Another goal or objective for this year is "Saving up". There was a time that I had to have everything I want such as clothes, shoes, bags and gadgets. Though I've already rehabilitated and managed the shopahollic in me, I still have some tingling urges left (such as a new MP3 player) . To further control these urges and prevent myself from spending my money, I have surrendered all my finances to my mom. Yes! as pre-school as it may sound I have my mom to the rescue. Nowadays temptation to spend is high when you see all of the latest gadgets, concerts (the christina aguilera concert which costs PHP7000++ /ticket), cds, bags and alike. I think having money saved up is really important, it's nice to start young (okay... im in my early twenties am I still considered young, young?). Knowing that I have something saved really boosts me up to save more and more.
I have a typical first name and that is Kristina. It could be spelled-out in different ways (Cristina, Christina, Xtina and what have you) but nevertheless it still sounds the same. For the last 2 decades of my existence, my name has evolved from Maria, tin-tin, Kristina, Kristeta, tina, tins and in an effort to be unique I finally chose a hyphenated name now I am t-na.
Mood Swings
Confessions
I always said the right things, throwing smiles left and right, ignoring "unpleasant" scenarios pretend that it didn't happen. I found it difficult to say NO, even though I really don't want to do it. To top it off, I always believed that "If I could just be nice to other people, maybe they will also be nice to me in return". Now, realizing that all of that crap I thought of is just full of shit since a lot of people took advantage of my disposition. Some of them even recognized that I was gullible and naive but instead of correcting me, they completely did the opposite. I've treasured momments of reflection and meditation, the healing of wounds. One day I'll face and conquer my demons...
