Last January 1, I have posted an entry on this blog with the title My Goals for 2010. I simply enumerated in that post, well, the things I want to accomplish for this year. Now, let me give you, my dear readers, an update or updates on how I’m doing so far with regards to accomplishing my goals this year.
Goal #1 – Finish my associate’s degree and graduate by May 8, 2010.
Goal #1 Status: ACCOMPLISHED (with flying colors). I graduated from the UP Open University last May 8, 2010 with an Associate in Arts Degree.
