3. A body shot (the more putol, the more soshal) wearing a band (Paramore) tee. I just love the fact that I get to attend a couple of music festivals this year and get to explore more music genre from pop punk to heavy metal. This year also is a sad one for music lovers as so many artists decided to go on a hiatus and some bands even have decided to part ways for good (also read as: focus on other things aside from actually making music. Sigh. Urbandub. I still love them, though. And I look forward to the future.)

4 and 7. A photo of The Script and Ed Sheeran. There have been so many great concerts in 2014 that I have been fortunate to watch and these are just two of them. It was a good diversion and stress reliever, attending these gigs, not to mention the fleeting happiness that one get having to hear their favourite songs being performed right in front of their eyes.

5. A photo of an almost empty train. This photo symbolizes the change of professional home. Work stuff went just as frantic as a roller coaster ride this year and I am still adjusting to the new job (not really new as it is of the same field) and environment but at the same time, I am happier than I have ever been, learning new things everyday (hands on from scratch) and exploring more of the design field.

6. A more putol, more soshal photo with me wearing an Oops! sweater. It actually is my cousin's sweater but I just could not help but take a photo of it. Its design is from one of Louis Tomlinson of One Direction's tattoos. I have been more vocal with the fact that I actually fancy them (especially Zayn) this year and was able to see them on both their concerts here in Manila in the first quarter of the year (minus Zayn, the sole reason I even decided to go but oh well). Tough year for their fandom, to be honest but man, if we Archies have made it through two years of hiatus due to Mormon mission with practically minimal to almost no updates, you sure hell can as well.

8. A photo of my CNBlue and Jung Yong-hwa's album bought in Japan. I'm surprised to find these in the selection but also, it's cool to have this included and I look forward to finally getting to see them in action this 2016. *hopeful*

9. A photo of the sky and the National Museum. I did not get to travel a lot but I did get to visit quite a few museums and gallivant around the city. Major plus is getting to experience all of them with some of my treasured friends.

Analysing the results  (read: the things I usually just post in Instagram. That’s probably a more accurate thing to say. haha), it just showed my love for music, books and travels. There are so many things that are still yet to be achieved, to have gone to, to get to experience but with all the things that has happened this year, the only word that I can think of to describe it is grateful; I really am and I am looking forward to whatever the Lord has planned for 2016.

Here's to the new year! Let's make it the best one yet!
