As I am typing this new post, I can't help to smile with every steps I made last year. Those times, I tried, experienced something for the first time, and the lessons I treasured from them. Observing myself, I never thought I can be this “Patricia” that evolved to something more mature, stronger and a better one.
2011 became my 5k running marathon, given me the chance to run all through times of enjoyment, tiredness, thirst, falling out, having a bruise, learning to stand up and finally surpassing that finish line. I often asked myself, why not do it? Try new things, as it may turn out well, or maybe not but at least you will learn something.
First things first? I colored my hair for the first time in late January. Out of curiousity, then it turned out to be a failure. Then colored it again that fortunately resulted good. I tried to groom my jungle eyebrows, which I disobyed my mother when she told us never to touch blade nor a tweezor and try fixing our eyebrows. (but, thread was used on my eyebrows mother. HAHA!). I became semi anorexic/bulimic during this year. I struggled to achieved that body. I usually strave myself, then binge eating, drank teas to make me defecate (but I am constipated FYI), and what's worse? I even tried purging (which I never will try again, seriously I felt my body is struggling during that event). Thankfully I surpass all of these, but I can't cancel the tea (constipation gets on my nerves everytime, sorry to say that). I tried something else to loosen these fats, learned how to avoid unhealthy foods little by little, include sit-ups in my everyday, and seriously drinking A LOT of water. Fortunately I became more confident in my weight today, and blushing everytime people will give compliments about loosing those pounds. AMEN to that! :)
