The few remaining days of 2013 calls for the remembrance of almost the year that was. But the past 360 days have been a roller coaster ride. There were ups, downs, and so-so. There were moments worth imprinting on paper and saving on journals, some were even worth forgetting. Thanks to Instagram (and journal-calendar), reliving the yesterdays become much easier. Here's my Instagram account (

Perhaps, career-wise, my biggest achievement was the celebration of my first year as a Lifestyle Reporter for a daily newspaper. It wasn't easy, though. Thank God I made it. Although a Lifestyle Writer has relatively easier schedule than a News Writer, it doesn't mean that he/she has lesser responsibilities. Lifestyle reporters also has tons of deadlines and daily events. But of course, the soft news writers have perks (teehee) like local/overseas travels, hotel/restaurant accommodation, and fashion freebies.
Here are some of my Instagram entries I would like to share:

| I visited Singapore twice this year! Here's to more travel next year! |
 |
| Bohol and Cebu were struck by earthquake that left many of their World Heritage sites damaged or completely muddles. The picture is Bohol's majestic Baclayon Church, before the earthquake hit. |

This is Mayor Romualdez' Patio Victoria Beach in Tacloban before the Super Typhoon Yolanda hit the province and left it like a War Zone. I really hope that the people of Leyte, Samar, Palawan and other hard-hit areas remain hopeful and positive.

To cap off my year, I finally... entered in a relationship. Haha!
