resolution
first week of the year wasn't good for me. before 2007 ended, i was struck with fever and asthma. though i was able to shoot the fireworks on new year's eve, it seems my short-term sickness had a vacation as well and went back after. that's the reason on why my mind wasn't prepared to lay down my so-called new year's resolutions.though some of the plans were accomplished, there were setbacks and must be executed. since i got my residency few months back, there's no more reason not to finish it...
...just keep myself focused. i just list down on what's on my mind:
boxers. i love those sleek contoured briefs and its bacon-like garters but it's time to phase out these old-skool underwear. boxers are my new love and bought alot to replace them.
watch your health. i quit smoking and lessen my drinking but there are more things to keep an eye on since im not getting any younger. we have history of diabetes and soda consumption is off the charts. stubborn. sugar and blood pressure (though im still normal) are my new nemesis.
nikki's lonely. she worked too hard for the past couple of years and needed a company so badly. though there were no plans of retiring, i have to get a new camera body and hopefully few more lenses (such as the macro and fast zoom lens).
settle down. to have a new car, stable job (and hopefully a salary raise), girlfriend, and fat savings in the bank are my simple wishes. it's quite broad but we're getting there.
pick a country... just any country that i can afford for vacation. a new stamp in my passport would look nice and have more opportunities to travel and shoot. possible targets are china, jordan, egypt, turkey, kenya (though there's so much turmoil there), vietnam and/or thailand.
portfolio. it just needed to be competitive in the market. a little update and have to study new technologies in my field would make it good.
now, let's get it on.
