look back 2006....expectation and prediction 2007

time flies so fast! I made it through 2006. let me just summarize the events in my life in the year 06.

nothing really exciting that happened to me in the first quarter of 2006 except for my busy schoolwork where I took most of my major subjects at that time. Winter semester of 06 really stressed me out that I failed one subject during spring term (stupid humanities class!) All the procrastination that put me way behind my homework schedule which led to more stress took its toll on the spring term of 06. I failed one class and I really got sick of studying! My only cure was to go back to california and unwind. That was a good break for me and it helped me to put things in perspective again. After that I worked during summer and I did a lot of internship work from Olelo community Television. The internship taught me a lot of things in multimedia production. oh! by the way before I forget, there was one exciting thing that i remember that happened to me during the first quarter of 06. I fell in love! wow! I almost forgot about that. i'm over it though but I fell in love with my really close friend. I didn't really expect to fall for her but it just happened. maybe that is why I made this a big deal because I'm a type of guy who love unexpected things especially about love and romance. it didn't work out because I have issues and by the time i told her about my feelings it was too late because she likes someone else already.
so...going on with my retrospection. summer was also an important time for me because I got to know who are my true friends. I got to know the people who I taught were my friends but in the end they will leave me behind just because I don't have some things that others have that they could use to do things that they know that I'll disagree with. what hurts me the most though is I found out that they feel like I'm a controlling person that i control their actions. Maybe I was a little bit controlling but whatever it is i did not do it on purpose and if I did it on purpose i just want to put a little integrity on things that I believe in. well anyways, that was last summer and everything is Ok now but it will never be the same again.
going on... fall semester was a very light semester for me because i only have 8 credits. although I got stressed out on applying for an OPT card everything went well. And finally I graduated from my school with a degree in Information systems. This is the main highlight of year 06 for me. I finally finished school and my parents were so happy because they finally made one of their children finish school. This a big accomplishment for them and i'm so happy to make them so proud. after graduation I got $500 from my relatives as a gift and some clothes. My dad bought me a new cell phone (t-mobile dash) and he sign up for a cable internet. That was awesome! finally, he is slowly giving his volvo s60R to me as a gift. If I found a job he is planning to buy a new car and totally transfer the S60 to me. i need a job so bad!

going to my predictions and expectations for the year 07. Well first of all i expect that i'll find a job that will give me more experience in my chosen field. I am also expecting and predicting that 2007 will be the year where visit the staples center and watch a laker game and see kobe bryant live! I also predict and hope that at least I'll find someone that will sweep me off my feet or if I'm lucky i might have a girlfriend this year. this is just a prediction so we'll see. I also expect to find out the result for my application for immigration status here in the US and if I'm luck I might go home to the Phil. and spend some time over there.

well these are my predictions and expectations for me this year of 07. hopefully everything will be executed as plan. Thanks for reading and you can go to sleep now!
