13 for 2013 Bucket List: Mid-Year Review! :)

What?? 6 months down!!! What’s up, my bucket list??? =)
Going through my list now, I’m beginning to realize na walang kwenta ang mga pinag-lilista ko! haha! But I’m updating it anyway! =p

One tourist spot (in the UK) per month. Moving in to a different place excites me this year (ummm scares me at the same time though ehehe!). Just to satisfy this ever-growing wanderlust, I’ll be exploring this part of the world, alone or with a “solemate”. :)

Mid-year – I’ve been around some places here at the southern part of the UK—the nearest places I could go to for a day trip. :) To name, Reading (of course) London, Bath, Exmouth, Seaford, Bristol.

Learn a new sport. Ambitious, yes. I’ve always wanted to be sporty when I was younger (hahaha! kung makapagsalita, parang antanda ko na!). Sanay lang ako sa mga larong-kanto and traditional games nung bata pa’ko hehe! Pero I got to learn to play table tennis and volleyball in high school; judo and basketball in college (required sa PE classes eh! Hahaha!). And the only sport that I competed into during college was Darts hahaha! Bull’s eye! Kase yun ung nilalaro ni college crush eh, aside from lawn tennis and taekwondo! =p

Mid-year – Or should I say “try” a new sport… and you call surfing a sport? I tried surfing last January in Baler, at di na naulit yun.. haha! It was fun and exciting and fulfilling (considering that I have a fear of huge waves! hohoho!)

Volunteer for an outreach program or something to that effect. ehehe! Wala lang, trip lang… Epekto ata ‘to ng pagiging tambay ko the past few days. Gan’tong mga charity works naiisip kong gawin every time I’m having a dialogue with myself. Wala, gusto ko lang ng konting meaningful event for 2013. :)

Mid-year – Not started…

****** **** ** ******* before the end of 2013! hahaha! no matter how odd and how impossible this may seem, I’ve decided to give myself the chance to revive this “faith in uncertainty” which has been once broken. Char! Nakikita ko nang hindi ‘to matutupad! Nyahaha! May parevive-revive pa’ko ha! :p

Mid-year – Boom! Yes! In my dreams though… =P Stressful! Juskopo, whyiii???

Wear a skirt / dress at least once a week (in the office or during weekend trips). Hahahaha natatawa ako habang tina-type ko ‘to! Maybe it’s time to overcome the hassle!:p Since feeling ko ‘di na ganun katindi ang pagcocommute (yung tipong byaheng Dian to Ayala via bus, standing-position-damit-na-lang-ang-pagitan-kind-of-commuting).

Mid-year – I was wrong at assuming that I won’t be commuting around here—I do commute everyday! But that didn’t stop me from wearing skirt ehehe! Yes, I started wearing them at around April when it wasn’t too cold anymore. Leg muscles, exposed! =p Photos to be uploaded next time…

Eat / Cook something unusual. Rabbit pa din nasa isip ko hanggang ngaun! haha!

Mid-year – My home-cooked meals are (always) unusual haha! But I’d definitely try some unusual (exotic?) food when I’m back in the Ph.

Do a part-time job / Earn extra income. I’m thinking of accepting tutorial services (parang hindi busy eh!). Shocks! Anu ba ‘tong mga iniisip ko, slacker talaga ang peg! Or pwedeng seryosohin na ang franchising business—I’ll be very involved (virtually maybe, kase malayo ako) in running the biz.

Mid-year – Shux! I’m too lazy for things like these! :( We’ll see what happens in the second half of this year.

Experience Moonlight over Paris. ehehe! Wala lang, I just remembered the song… Ka-emohan lang, walang basagan ng trip! lalalalalala!

Mid-year – Hahahay!!! Flight to Paris, booked!!! Hostel, booked!!! Ummm I’m scheduled to submit my Visa requirements this 4th of July; hopefully all will turn out well! :) Who wants to come along??! =p

Accommodation and Flight Bookings :)

Lose some weight and maintain it at 50kg or below. Final na, di na pwede lumagpas pa! Starting weight: 52kg na ba? Takot akong magweigh-in ngaun haha! Oh well, I’m bringing some skyflakes to the UK to help me achieve this hehe! No-rice mode ulet just like in Indonesia, and no pasta na sana… :D

Mid-year – Losing weight is taking tooooo sssllllooowwww…. Here’s my latest weight (as of 15th of June).

50.40 kg at 15th June 2013, not bad, right? =p

1 million Peso savings for 2013! Hohohoho! Boom! I’ll be watching closely my cash flows for this year. It’s time to effectively manage my finances, make investments and stuff like that. ehehe! Kelangan na sigurong magseryoso sa buhay (parang hindi serious dati no!).

Mid-year – Yehh! I think as of 30th of June, I still can say I’d be able to meet this goal… But with the upcoming travel plans (hahahaha!), my cashflows would be distorted! :) Planning to cut down my costs in July though to cover for my August and September expenditures hehe!

Try a new hairstyle? Wanting to get back that old curly hair. Parang sawa na’ko mgparebond ng buhok! Haha! Sana pag kumulot, maayos na curls naman ehehehe!

Mid-year – She bangs! Just out of boredom, I cut my hair! :p.

Hahaha! Sorry, di na po mauulit! =p

Go out on an unusual date. Not the usual dinner-movie-kind-of-date. Basta sana yung kakaiba! It’s time to revive the romantic side of me. haha! Nagawa ko na sana yun nung 2012, kaso umurong puso ko hahaha! hmp! Ngaun, meron na’ko naiisip na unusual, pero ang malaking tanong, sino ang pwedeng i-date??? Hahaha!

Mid-year – Unusual what? Eh yung normal nga, di ko magawa! hohoho!.

Read. Read. Read. And share some takeaways. I have the urge to read, pero di ko maaksyunan! Hahaha! Nakadepende talaga sa mood ang pagbabasa! And it also depends kung inspired or not! ehehe! =p

Mid-year – Read some books during the first quarter of the year, when the weather’s too bad for outdoor trips hehe! Then slowed down at reading at the start of spring hehe! Wahh still got a lot on my “shelf”. .
