Relationships Can Be "BackTracked"

What the heck is this statement all about?
As a start, I am back in the relationship stage. Starting all over again and hopefully this time Id be able to at least upgrade the "happiness" I get out of all these hooplas.
I was in a daze when I all the things I could expect to come before the year ends truly happened. I got all surprised when I had to at least backtrack with this person I dated 1 week ago that it was long overdue for the relationship to start. Then an agreement was sealed without me asking for it. Came as a sweet surprise indeed.
Forgive me if I am lost for words on what to write on. Im on a high. Yet again, the only thing I could hope for is a lasting relationship that would not bring me any uncertainties. I stop and think about it for a second and have to remind myself that I should not be idealistic. I had to slap myself and not overanalyze because it presents a danger. I am no longer the pessimist about relationship.
As a committment to myself, I will make sure this will work this time. I can see some potential hardship. Then its about two consenting people both in a "win-win" situation.
I know this will work.

Ending the Year 2007

This must be one of th best years of my life. Let me count the reasons why I really enjoyed this year:

1. The year started with a pay increase of 42% last January for a good performance last 2006 2. GOt involved with someone last April and went to Puerto Galera for the first time. 3. Had two people working under me promoted and improved performances for other people were achieved. NOw, they are are happy too. 4. I was transferred to the evening shift where I've seen people improving once again on their performances. Sales rate peaked to almost 17% within two months from a bad 12% last September due to an incompetent manager. Now, everything is in place. Currently, sales rate is at 20.00% and it keeps getting better. December is definitely special for me and here are the reasons why: 1. I finally got my laptop. Its an ACER Aspire 5580 with Intel Core 2 Duo in it. 2. YOng was the best samaritan for this year for giving me a book about MS Access. He then sold two books for a discounted price. Amazing isnt it? 3. Jano was the first person who gave me a necklace my whole life. It is not the most expensive one you can find. As a matter of fact, the gold plate is starting to fade. Regardless of the price of quality, the thought really touched and moved me. 4. I met an interesting person. Gullible as Imay seem to be but this is starting to go the way where I want it to be. I'll hope for a brighter future. 5. I finally got someone to rent the 2nd room in my place. This has something to do with finances. To make it more interesting, this person was under the tutelage of my Mom way back in high school and my mom definitely remembered him. Now I wont have to worry about leaving some spare money because half of what I pay for my shelter has already been taken care of. 6. I found genuine friendships in the office. These people are those who understand that being human can be complicated due the uniqueness of ones personality. I may be blunt but thats just me. I can change it but people dumping you based on impressions are BS. Some of the drawbacks that shaped my life for 2007 1. Violating company policy is indeed a serious offense and being the bookish type of person when it comes to policies, I learned the best. I was given a Final Written Warning for it. No need to ask what policy I violated. Ill keep it to myself. 2. My anger and angst is getting serious that i am grateful for my company's initiative to help employees fix some minor personal problems and dilemmas. I get misunderstood because I cannot seem to just keep it low when it comes to my feelings and this is still one of my greatest AREA FOR IMPROVEMENT. 3. Going to Puerto Galera was not really a good idea. I went home with a "black eye" Funny me and my partner separated. 4. Motivation is self-induced. It should not be based on the temperature of the surroundings and the kind of people you are with. My performance got a little shaky in the middle of the year. I only had to blame myself for it. 5. Lost a friend. Not because this friend died but in the process of our friendship, that evil persona surfaced. I didnt want that in my backyard. Things to look forward for 2008 1. More savings 2. Better performance 3. Getting people promoted with improved and exemplary performance. 4. Have my room decorated and organized. 5. Be more efficient with work and deliverables. 6. No absences and tardiness. Not even once for the year 2008.
