Year-Ender Brouhahas: The Top 10 Talks**ts That I've Uttered But Never Made It

Another thing that I would remember in 2011 is when I said so many pieces but none of them happened in return. That's why I call it talks**ts, I said something that I would do but nothing happened. And in 2011, a lot of it were made so I decided to create a top list of those talks**ts that I've said but never formed real.

By the way, I could say promises or assurance or commitment or pact or pledge but why talks**t, which has a vulgar word at the second syllable. Well, maybe of its syntax which has something to do with not doing what you've promised before, so therefore, I use talks**t!

TOP 10 - DRINK LOTS AND LOTS OF WATER


I am very sorry I wasn't able to fulfill my promise on drinking water. My best buddy Kenneth told me that to have a very replenished skin and gorgeous body is to drink lots and lots, even pail of water. I used to drink at least one gallon of water but I have always this feeling of being drowned by too much drinking. Sometimes I do drink, but most of the time I forgot. Water is life, as what they say, and I believe they're true.

TOP 9 - READING BOOKS


I said to myself that too become intelligent and knowledgeable in anything I do, I should concentrate on reading books which would help me to think while working. I said also that at least a month, I should get a book and read it as fast and as clever as possible. It is really on top of my priorities but I'm afraid I can't do it because of being too busy at work and not having time for it. I also made a promise to buy at least one copy of a book, either English or Filipino. Though I did it, but still I wasn't able to open it. That's an example of a talks**t!

TOP 8 - BUY iPOD TOUCH


It was really a big time talks**t since I couldn't save from my allowance. I am having too much splurge every pay day, especially to food and since then I haven't saved even a single penny. If I do, I need it in my future use, just for nothing. I said a piece in 2010 that I will buy myself an MP3 player, preferably iPod Touch just to enjoy myself in listening to music. But, of course, the heydays of having fun with family and friend came alive and I forgot to save for my future iPod. I also said that I will buy a new phone, but why should I buy one if I still have one.

TOP 7 - PASSING REQUIREMENTS IN U.P. DILIMAN


My goodness, this has been one of the worst talks**ts I've created. I said even to my bosses in our institution that I would study Special Education so that I could learn more about it. But since I had a difficult time and having an earliest time to go into, I stopped dreaming about it. And also, it stopped my promise to pass requirements at the State University. Looks funny and sounds funny, but true.

TOP 6 - GETTING PASSPORT


And what's the purpose of getting a passport? I know that a person needs a passport for going to another country. But then, what's the purpose of getting a passport, that seems I haven't have any plans of going abroad. Good thing I didn't push through to get one but maybe in the future, I need one.

TOP 5 - THE BAGUIO VACATION
an e
One of the funniest talks**ts I've said, and going to Baguio wasn't even put into consideration. I said to myself that by the time we will have our semester break, I'll go to Baguio for three days just to visit their places. I knew that Baguio wasn't anymore beautiful unlike before, but going to Baguio is a dream for me. My family used to visit the place and unfortunately, I was still inside of my mother's womb. Sayang talaga ang Baguio!

TOP 4 - FIND A PART-TIME JOB


And yes, I didn't pursue it. I needed a part-time job before because I was in dire need of an extra income. I went to Special Education and I could have the worst of the worst (thanks to my dear partner, Sir Froilan for telling me about it) and I should not get one first. I did it, I saw the challenges. But still, I need an extra income for my resources, since I am the only one working in our household.

TOP 3 - WATCHING CONCERTS


I said to myself to watch the concerts of Bruno Mars, Train, Toni Gonzaga and Vice Ganda. I was thinking of buying their tickets but then again, no tickets were purchased, no excitement were created and no concerts had been watched. I told myself that at least one foreign act and one local act should I watch to delight myself. I feel so guilty because I made again a promise.

TOP 2 - LOSE WEIGHT


Almost all the time, I am making this as my promise to myself but I can't achieve it. I am getting older and needs to watch my diet but what can I do? I love eating as much as I love food. Whenever I am depressed, or stressed or just plain hungry, I go outside and buy or find a perfect food to ease my worries and rise up my appetite. And sometimes, I feel difficulty in breathing and getting tired quickly. I really need a break, and I need to think first about my health and not my outside.

TOP 1 - STUDYING SPECIAL EDUCATION


Before, I used to tell myself that I was wanting to learn the knick-knacks of Special Education. I thought of studying in De La Salle University, Philippine Normal University (in which I took the entrance examination) and University of the Philippines (good thing, I didn't pursue it). I don't know; it seems that Special Education is not the thing for me, or maybe it is for me but I'm not yet prepared to have it as my newest career. I stopped dreaming to become one because my heart never accepted the fact that I can be part of their world.

With these kinds of talks**ts that I've made, you might think or you would think that I am a man who breaks promises. Well, yes, I do. And for 2012, I need to change my thing by not just saying it but proving it. I shall not make promises since it tends to be broken. As much as possible, do not say what you want to do, just go with the flow and achieve it without thinking twice. Therefore, no pretensions and no more talks**ts!!!

2 days to go before the newest year, 2012. I don't understand why am I so excited with it? New career? New memories? New love life???

Toodles!!!
