My 2011 Year-Ender

2011, what a year it has been!

Busy and hectic,
Tiring but fulfilling.
At times, hope was just a gleam.
It was the love month, then.
Oh, the unexpected reward of such hard work came!
It was beyond words to describe such appreciation.

Dubbed as the gadget year,
Bought, won and received techie items.
Dubbed as the foodie year,
Had lunches or dinners in never-tried restaurants multiple times.
Dubbed as the friendship year,
I befriended people whom I have never talked to.
Went to reunions and reaching out.
Kept in touch with friends.
They were awesome!
Dubbed as the exploration year,
Went to Enchanted and to other places.
Accepted challenges.
Took chances.
Dubbed as the speak-now year,
Confronted different people countless times.
At times where I felt I became a victim
Of injustice or unfair treatment,
Of disrespect,
Or of anything that was really wrong.

It was a wonderful year,
Amidst the ups and downs.
Along the way,
There were lessons and experiences
To which I will value
As I continue this journey.

Cheers to the new year ahead! :)

Christmas Lights

I was walking in a dark street with deep thoughts

I turned a corner and I entered a well-lit street.

Christmas lights tracing the lines of the walls,

with trees being graciously covered with lights.

Those lights were glowing to me.

Casting its soft dim light in the way.

I could feel its warmth.

It was comforting.

I stopped and stared for a while.

Caught mesmerized by its beauty.

I thought the color of the lights was romantic.

I walked along the alley,

darting my eyes from left to right.

I found myself beaming with delight.

Ayala Triangle Lights and Sound Show

I was really happy to catch the Lights and Sound Show just before it was about to start. It was really unexpected because I thought the show just ended. There were a lot of people and then all of a sudden, the show started. So my friend and I quickly went to the front of the Ayala Triangle to record the show (in bigger picture).

The colorful lights were just so awesome! I felt like we were in some dream land as we walked. We saw lights everywhere. I felt like I could just stare at them blankly. There was also some smoke effect and the snow flakes projected which I did not see it coming at first.

My first small stone

I was walking, as if being pushed.

Realizing it was the strong wind that thrusts me forward.

Helping me to walk briskly, as I rushed for work.
