hello to 2007!

Here's to another year!

Do I have some expectations for this year? Of course I do! Just as I have hopes, dreams, aspirations, and other positive thoughts.

However, I'm not keeping my hopes high. I just strive to do what is best, and hopefully the rest would follow. I leave it all up to the Lord.

Top priorities for year 2007 would be career advancement and a budding love life. Yet I'm betting more on the former than the latter. The first quarter of this year will be very crucial, and I hope for wonderful things in store for me this year.

Why a little faith on the second one? I've been hapless in that field for crying out loud! The result of my latest "romance" (if I could really call it that way!) is somehow too soon to tell. There are so many questions on my mind, like "Why try to contact me only now?", "Why the invitation to an important occasion?", and the never-ending whys. I'm actually scared of interpreting his text messages. For now, I'm contented that he makes me smile, and it felt really good to see him after two years. I just don't understand why he's so difficult to comprehend. I have tried a number of times to squeeze him, to find out if he's got something under his sleeves, a hint of even a little thing for me or whatever. But everything was pointless! Maybe it's just supposed to be that way. After all, most men are like that, just as they find us women hard to bear. A common friend of ours actually thought something's going on between us already, that it's about time he made his move. I asked her to remain calm and stop herself from even saying a single detail about us to anyone we know. She's actually more excited than I am, and there, I should say, goes the problem. Excitement is intangible, therefore not to be relied upon. Unless there is really something going on between us, then I see no reason to be euphoric.

I know I should be excited, but there's this part of me still hanging on to the previous year. I hate excess baggage! I just pray for something sublime in the days to come. I know I deserve one.
