[Personal] And After 3 Months... A New Year! ^_^;

Well, took me a while to return to "updating" again! :P And why yes, apart from having a blog post backlog from LAST YEAR, I do have a list of topics to tackle in future posts.

Procrastinating Kitteh Is Procrastinating. AWWWW YEAH.

Also, I'm a little bit more resolute now in changing the abomination of a photo reflected from my last post (yes, the Zombie hand jutting from the bowels of the earth) which has been in kikaytrekkie's right-hand bar where she lists down the blogs she recommends to he readers (thanks again for that, girl! ^_^) for a whole THREE MONTHS. 

BUT before anything else:






It's this time of year when people decide that what they've resolved to do last year needs to be resolved (again) for good this year. :P For instance, I have a couple of resolutions from last year which I'd carry on and carry over to this year, and a couple of new ones, too. To share, and to hopefully get support from fellow bloggers out there with just about the same goals, here are: 


LE RESOLUTIONS FOR 2012:


1.) Reach my ideal weight. It won't be just about hitting the gym... In fact, I can do my workouts at home with the very manual equipment I have now... I just need the *surprise* RESOLVE and motivation. ^^; Also, it's about eating more healthily, and if possible, return to my all-vegetarian diet. Most importantly, it's about getting the discipline to get off my butt, fight the excuses, and actually do those reps and dance workouts. Also, I'm just about into the whole Zumba thing right now. It's quite fun if my glum days haven't killed the fun out of it. BAHAHA.

2.) Blog regularly. I do hope that you guys will be getting more from this ol' blog of mine, and know more about the different stuff that catch my fancy and interest which, I hope, would catch yours too. :) I've been following some friends' blogs and are quite awed and a tad envious of how they're so dedicated to churning out something new for their readers. For me personally, it doesn't matter if I put something new up every week, bi-weekly, or even everyday... my blog just needs to have enough substance by the time half the year is over. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED. :))

3.) Get new perspectives on life. NOW this is deep and very abstract... but that's how I can put it right now. xD I realized that I've been in a rut for the past couple of years figuring out my potential and priorities and all that emotional, mental, and existential shiz. I do believe that I have a lot of potential; I just don't have enough confidence to get out there and nail it. I've nailed a few things here and there, but not the big stuff. I think it's really time for the big stuff. Time for that little Bilbo journey. ^^;;;

I have a few more resolutions... but they seem more of "wishes" than resolutions (I've read that there is a definite difference between the two. :P). In any case, I'm putting my top 3 resolutions out there for the world to see. There's no turning back now. *face of determination........*

I'll leave the post at that for now, since I talk too much when writing my thoughts down and long post might end up being longer. :P 

Have a nice week ahead, luvs! Here's to a more epic 2012... and may the world not end just because the Mayan calendar said so (of course I'm joking here, kinda). 



Lurve,

[Personal]October: BIRTHDAY MONTH AHOY! :) (And... Halloween!)





Wow, I'm sure some of my readers (where are youuu? Come out, come out, wherever you are and do leave some comments. xD) thought that I've abandoned my blog after not having an update for a couple of weeks... again. O_O I've been busy with other shenanigans (am I ever busy? HAHA) but contrary to popular belief, I haven't abandoned my blog at all. :P In fact, far from it. As I've mentioned before, I've lot of posts lined up for this blog, some of which are already overdue. X_x Congratulations, Ms. Procrastinator. If there'd be an award for such, you'd be queen of the world. >__>

ANYWAY, a lot of things have happened since my last post, and I'll be making some recounts of those in my blog soon, if not right away. :)

TO THE POINT!

'Tis October. 'Tis the month of mah birth, and the month of Halloween. ^^




I've friends (I'm looking at you, Nazgulqueen!) who wish their birthdays fell on the month of October, especially its latter part, because 'tis the month which the heathen world (and commercialism... ahehehe) celebrate Halloween. :) I try not to associate All Hallow's Eve with religion and whatnot... I've also Pagan and Wiccan friends who celebrate it in their own small but sacred way. I celebrate Halloween for its prettily fantastical and ghoulish things: costumes, costume parties, LOTS OF candy, scary movie marathons, ghost stories, and JELL-O SHOTS. xD











Some of my first Halloween parties which I've had after age 18 involved the colorful, wonderful world of Jell-O shots. Apart from taffy apples and pumpkin soup and pie, Jell-O shots rather defined my "must-have nomz for when Halloween arrives." The colors and flavors mask the alcohol which those tiny blobs contain, so after a few gulps, you'd notice that you're having this big smile on your face. BUT all in moderation... unless you're partying in a place with close friends and people you trust. xD Bottomline is, if I don't have Jello-O shots on Halloween, I try to make them part of my birthday. :P

I've had memorable birthdays; I've had crappy birthdays; I've had birthdays I don't even remember because they were that uneventful or bad. I've learned to make most of my birthday, whether people give a sh!t or not. :P In fact, I've already got a birthday present for myself, which I'll include in one of my future posts. :)

AND one other thing I like about birthdays is that people give you presents. :P There were birthdays when I didn't receive a whole lot of presents at all; there were birthdays when I did receive some pretty awesome presents. It's mostly safe to post one's wishlist on a birthday month, because people would most likely (no guarantees, though!) pay attention to said wishlist. :P So Imma do that it my next post... so yes, DO PAY ATTENTION. :P


It's my party and I'll NOM IF I WANT TO :))


Another year older. Age is just a number. Or not? ^_^0

So, any Octoberians too here? :)



Lurve,
