my 2008 hopefully ends with the nicest things. well, i am financially broke but what the heck?! i have all the gadgets (well, almost!) that i dreamed of. i still need to get a new laptop though. if Santa's reading my blog, i really want to have the new generation macbook for Christmas. =)

anyway, 2009's a few days away... i am forecasting that it'll be a very, very busy year. here are my plans for the coming year:

1. Learn something NEW

  • practice driving like a pro - i need to be confident, safe and be streetsavy... that extends up to Oman. gusto kong mag-roadtrip!! hehe.
  • be a mac user
  • be an expert photoshop tweaker (wish ko lang!! hahaha)
  • learn more about making overlay layouts and digital scrapping- i found some tutorial sites which would really be helpful for this (http://www.berryscrappy.com/) goal.
  • fix my blogger, friendster and multiply sites

2. Prepare more parties

  • prepare for lance's party
  • push through with the chocolate fountain business
  • help organize some parties

3. Take a vacation

  • explore philippines
  • have another country to visit

4. Improve myself

  • organize
  • save (this i have to do triply hard)
  • mingle

with my newly-acquired driver's license, i have been scouting around for my car lately. i have visited three showrooms with my friend jihan and tried to get a closer look with my top three choices on my car-shopping list.

1. Nissan Tiida - the hatchback. i love this car the first time i saw it, especially the red one. ample back pasengger space, cutee and easy to park (i assume! hehe). the downside was the cramped compartment area. too small for baby strollers and stuffs. the sedan, the built''s not that outstanding. although the compartment area's more spacious.

2. Mitsubishi Lancer - i love the red one of this, too! haha. it's a sedan but the look was half-manly and half-ladylike. somehow, being a man's car, the look has that "astig" feature. with the specs offered to me, i might get this one over the nissan tiida. 1.6GLX it is. i'll post a pic once i officially owned and brought one home. =)

3. Suzuki Jimny - i considered this one because this is one of the cheapest SUVs in the market. i like the red colored jimny as well. however, UAE doesn't carry this color. ako lang daw yata ang nag-ask ng ganung color dito. hehe. this car is good for single status gal/guy but not as a family car. the car's compartment can only accommodate two shopping bags and can only carry four persons maximum. it's a very cute SUV though.
