Mike Posner soothed my ears with his electropop. I was several steps close to home when this man approached me. He told me that there were men here that touched the boobs of a certain girl, he wants me to identify a man in a picture,I came along with him a few blocks away from, and we were with another guy whom he also called to identify the picture. The other guy went somewhere first with the older man and I was left with another man (so there were four of us.) I started to feel nervous. The two men came back. My turn....

Last night, or technically, this very early morning, I had lunch with the two people that I have been hanging out with a lot this year: Taylor and Gabby. We were kind of overwhelmed of how this year had gone for us. But it sure was a huge turning point in my case. I start to remember all the challenges, the ups and downs that I have gone through this year.
The earliest memory that I could recall is the break up I had. It was a bad break up and it even had its own issues that surfaced as something "telegenic" (which in here, I could translate as a perfect screenplay for a Gossip Girl episode---or wait, that's too preppy.. Let's say, Jersey Shore! Haha!). We got along (my ex and I) after a few months of bitterness and I'm glad to say I have moved on.
I resigned as a teacher and now I started working as an online tutor at a Korean company. Pretty much I could say that this work is a good experience for me. The change I have though is having to go to work in the afternoon and go home in the evening. Oh, and I work at the 23rd floor! Easy access for rappelling!
But when I got that call for this job, that was the day I got a call from my dad to hurry to the hospital. My mom bid farewell. It was one of the saddest points in my life; to have the person who has inspired you a lot to leave. The consolation is that she does not have to suffer anymore. And I'm proud to say that I have shown her a lot of achievements already when she was still alive.
Mating season was in the air and my friends have their bellies bulging due to presents given by the Almighty. This is the reason why in our Circle, only the three of us are left with a lot of hang outs. How we miss the old days. Well, everyone, if you want to enjoy your youth a little longer, just KEEP "IT" SAFE!!
Finding someone whom I admire the most is also part of my year-ender. We're in very good terms and I am hoping that we continue to become better the coming year.... years! Hehe... This person almost represent the totality of the kind of person I would bow down to. Even now, already, I am head over feet!
The drama I had with this certain "lover," becoming an optimist, parties, messing up a little with my ex's new boyfriend, parties, Molino trips, Arashi fan gathering, parties, meeting my PM shift family, parties, being surrounded like a celebrity by former students, buying a lot of new clothes, parties, being threatened to be killed by a man with a bolo, parties, watching a movie alone, parties, performing on top of a table, parties, dancing onstage in a bar, parties.... 2010 sure was a hell of a ride for me. The start was not nice but I spent more than half of the latter part of the year rocking life out. But to think about it, WHERE WAS THE THRILL? They are not enough. I am looking forward to a more exciting and daring year in 2011. May it not be just as thrilling as peeing in the shower.

"Give me your phone," said the man, "the "sargeant" might think that you're one of those men because they seemed rich. You should not let him see that you look rich."
Okay! I thought. It's all your sucko! You deserve it! You're working pretty hard on it. May your Christmas be merry as your children and family enjoy the food and presents that went through the gates of hell. Here, have my C3 Nokia.
Okay, I did not think that way. But I could have.
"You might have some huge amount there with you. The sargeant might see it."
"Here. It's just a hundred."
"Okay, wait here. When someone approaches you, tell him that you were just asked by a man named Rey."
"Sure thing."
The man left.
After a minute... *Insert expletives here*

Oh well! I just bought a new C3. Let them have the old one. 2011, watch out for me.
