Annual Retreat

Today is Monday, 28 December 2009 *i think the posting upload date will be different, something wrong which i dont know why..

its few days before 2010, before the new year, based on International year..
welcoming 2010, i'd like to look back what did i do on previous new year celebration :
2008 : swimming and bbq in parangtritis beach with my friends
2007 : hanging around with my friends along side the street
2006 : party hard, i forgot where *rave perhaps
2005 : doing my homeworks *i still remember the lecture : MAS RIZAL :) :) :)
2004 : party also, with my besties
2003 : forgot :(

my friends start asking me what to do on new year eve..
i answered : i dont know yet..
but looking back that i spent most of my youth, welcoming new year, by having fun even partying with my friends........then im thinking to be on my own this year..

//Annual Retreat//
thats the name of the thing i would do on 31 december 2009..
annual : because it happen once a year
retreat : looking back, or pulling back
so i would like to see, to collect memories, to review what i have done so far..
what were my achievements.
what were my failures..why did i failed..what should i do next..
what were my mistakes..what i have done wrong to my family and my friends..
i would like to thank God for the nonstop blessing, for being with me, giving His love and protection every single day..
i would say sorry if i forgot to pray, to give thanks daily, and if i run so fast i cannot see things i already get from You..
i would like to commit myself to Him, The Trinity, to what He plans upon me..
i would like to do things that only bring happiness to my beloved mom and dad..
i would commit myself to my dreams..
*according to a Motivator on TV yesterday, we -the youth- should be opportunity oriented not security oriented..
so i think i pour some bravery on my mind and my heart..and here i go running to achieve my dreams..
