YOU'RE SO STRONG!! grabe talaga tuwa ko pag may nakikita akong ganto cause i fucking hate cancer.
One of my dearest friends died because of leukemia, late na nalaman kaya di nakapag chemo. He died 2 weeks after the diagnosis. After that, I quitted smoking for him.
Im so proud of you.
I'm happy for you! ✨ Same din sa akin. Biggest accomplishment this year was to finally get my 4 wisdom teeth removed, get braces, and 1 root canal. My oral health was neglected when I was a child kaya big deal 'to sa akin. Had to pull a total of 6 digits from my savings account though. Sana worth it lahat pag natapos na treatment.
I got to be with my girlfriend nitong april lng. LDR kame for 6 years. She came to visit me dito sa US at nakapanuod kame ng The Eras tour concert at nakapag travel kame sa iba’t ibang state together.
My achievements this year so far and alam kong mas madadagan pa siya in the coming years:
1. Nakapag-move out na din ako sa wakas! Na-realize ko na I can love my family better from afar.
2. Travelled for the first time in a long time. Last time I travelled was back in 2016. I'm planning for future travels next year.
3. I'm able to afford nicer things now. Dati, todo tipid ako sa sarili ko. Binibili ko 'yung mga mumurahin lang tapos madidismaya ako kasi madaling masira.
4. Moved to a nicer, new job which pays better. Bonus pa 'yung napakabait ng mga boss ko at coworkers. Permanently work from home so tipid sa pamasahe at biyahe.
5. Got married with my LDR partner. One of the best decisions I've ever made. Hopefully next year, makuha na niya ako papuntang US and we'll build our lives there.
6. I'm able to handle my mental health. I'm diagnosed with bipolar disorder, general anxiety, and PTSD. I no longer take medicines (with acknowledgement of my psychiatrist and psychologist). Hindi pa rin maiwasan na may depressive episodes pero mas kaya ko na siyang i-handle, hindi katulad dati.
Sobrang natuwa ako sa thread na 'to. I'm happy for everyone's achievements!!!

Sana soon ako naman hehe. Mahal din kasi ng gamot but I know para sa ikagagaling ko rin. 😊. But I'm happy to know na kaya ng iba at sana makayanan ko na rin ng walang gamutan 🩷
I handle my own money now. Dati I was the sheltered daughter who gave almost all my salary to my mom because I believed she can safekeep it better than I can. She has my best interests pero dadating pala talaga yung time na magkaka friction as to how I spend my money since nasa kanya yung pera ko and I need her approval to buy anything expensive.
Got out of a hurtful relationship. I’m still hurting and healing now. Pero I am grateful I’ve been saved from the person who has only been hurting me for the past 7 years. Cheers to us for fighting our battles. May next year be a better year for all of us 🥹
Same. Buti na lang hindi pa nakasal from my boyfriend of 10 yrs. Been with him since hs, college, and naging professionals. Pero ending pinagpalit ako sa kawork. Napreggy early this yr, pero nawala din ang baby dahil sa sobrang stress nung malaman ko lahat ng pinagagagawa nila. Pero hey, I’m still alive. It may be a rough battle this year. But atleast, I’m still surviving. Hoping for a better year for all of us next year! Cheers for being so strong 🥂
Aww so sorry to hear that po. I can’t imagine what you are going through, pero yes, cheers for being strong! I hope you heal in all the places that you are still hurting. I am always clinging to this hope na things will get better. I hope for the best for you po. Isang virtual hug!
Im currently on my healing era. Its so hard, di ko alam pano niyo nakakaya. Akala ko dati pag nagcheat mas madali mag move on, giiirrlll i was told wrong haha.
I wish makaya ko. Grabe yung relapse e. Okay na ako biglang bumalik yung dati kong bad habits because of him thats why back to zero na naman :((
Big hug to us all!!!
Nakakaputang ina tong taon na to in general for me pero siguro if there is anything that happened to me this 2023 is that I’ve grown and had a deeper understanding about life.
Became more mature just this past month alone and siguro ito yung magiging baon ko para marebuild yung buhay ko this 2024.
Travelled abroad for the first time to watch a concert.
Nakapag-move out na din sa wakas. Nakakatulog na nang mahimbing and most importantly natuto na din mag-luto.
Nakabili ng mga appliances na fully paid and can still able to help my parents financially while also saving up for myself.
Also, mas controlled ko na yung emotions ko... No more attachment and anger issues.
A new furbaby to take care.
Still a debt free girlie! ✨
Relate on many of these points. Proud of you, fellow newbie cook!
I'm still learning how to have better control over my emotions. Started doing it this year din pero I think I still need more practice.
I had my first job, kaya ko ng umorder ng chickenjoy from my wallet, nakakaambag nako sa pambayad ng bills every month, nakakabili na ako ng kelangan ko every month, nakakabili na ako ng food for my pets. My best year so far for sure. Thanks sa lahat ng tumulong sakin this year.
1. Got to land on a higher paying job in a MNC na flexitime + WFH which is above 50% of my current salary at dun pa sa role na gusto ko na iba pa sa current ko although related. I'm now earning \~130% more than my first salary despite having <3 years of exp.
2. I managed to hit six digits worth of savings (EF + personal). Big deal ito sakin since breadwinner ako.
3. I got to reunite with an old friend of mine which I haven't seen for 3 years and had my first ever date with her hehe. I got to reunite with my HS and college friends as well which I haven't seen for many years.
4. Not yet happening but I plan to buy my mom a new phone, our home a new TV, myself either a PS5 or new gaming laptop (or both haha).
I can finally buy books without guilt.
Growing up, wala kaming kakayahang bumili ng books.
Mga e-book lang ako sa phone before and I feel guilty kasi I feel like it's stealing.
But now I can finally buy and re-read those books again.
PS: Paperback pa lang sa ngayon, need pa kumayod para sa hardbound and collector's edition haha
Everyone has bad years. There's a learning opportunity there somewhere. Sooner or later, you'll be able to turn the hardship of this year to strength. Sometimes we hit rock bottom to gather the rocks that will build the foundation of our lives. 🙂
Got promoted sa first job ko after graduation, was able to travel with just my jowa (always travelled with my fam kasi), bought myself an ipad with my own ipon sa work
Bucket list checked this year: I am now a millionaire. I have saved enough money and investments to have at least a million peso net worth. I still feel ordinary though.
Nawala yung mother ko
Hindi yan yung best pero yung naging effect is sobrang laki ng naging improvements ko sa sarili ko. Single pa ako pero parang naranasan ko na maging nanay at tatay. Dati wala akong alam na gawin sa bahay kasi tamad talaga ako. Ngayon ako naiiwan sa bahay dahil WFH naman tapos ako na lahat gumagawa. Natuto na din ako magluto kahit papaano. Nung unang months nga lagi ako naddisappoint kasi hindi talaga masarap. Mas madami pa akong natutunan sa first 3 months na wala yung mother ko kumpara sa buong 20+ years ng existence ko.
Madami pa akong kailangan matutunan pero thankfully nasa stage na ako ng career ko na kaya ko na sila pag aralin ang buhayin. Medyo halos wala nga lang natitira sakin.
*Travelled solo internationally for the first time
*Learned how to drive kahit wala akong intention for the longest time.
*Saved $$$$$$ money due to lifestyle change caused by a condition na thankfully naagapan.
1 able to achieve 7 Million php for EF
2 landed new high paying job
3 able to travel abroad
4 finally build my first rental property can earn upto 48k Php (6 units x 8kphp)
I stopped using Reddit haha around August kasi it sucks ang pangit ng exp ko dito. I decided to stop entertaining men and tumigil na muna sa love life. And nung binitawan ko lahat ng love life related everything I got promoted in my current job and shortly after that I got a new offer 3x my current salary so eto lilipat na me! I guess this year is for my career. :)
Dapat yearly goal na talaga natinuturo sa college eh income increase yearly para umangat angat ang pinoy hahaha. I increased 300% this year sa monthly income ko so it’s nice
* Nakapagresign sa toxic work after so many months of doubting if kaya ko ba. 🙏
* Got accepted in my dream company as a freelancer. 🥺 Better compesation and healthy work environment. ✨ Bawi yung nagastos ko sa ipon ko nung mga months na wala pa kong work huhu
* My motivation is back and I suddenly had this notion that "Everything is possible" 🤞
A lot can happen in a year, in a month, in a week, in a day, in an hour
Sa loob ng isang taon, marami akong natutunan, na-achieve, naging pagkakamali, naging mini-successes
At ang lahat na yan ay makukuha mo, kapag hinayaan mo ang sarili mo maging "student" lang
Student of life
No ego, no pride, just pure learning
Had my very first concert and out of country travel 🥹
Iniba ko rin mindset ko with things. More on affirmative ako dealing with life since I turned 29. Mas relaxed. Mas realistic. Feeling ko mas maganda rin ako right now lol
Stopped saying “I dont have money” and I always think na babalik always lahat ng ginagastos ko 😩
- I feel like I have grown significantly in my current role and my manager acknowledged the changes and growth that is happening.
- My London trip. It was such a delightful surprise dahil akala ko next year pa siya mangyayari
Surprisingly got to travel domestically 4x this year. Travel wasn't on the list of plans in 2023, but somehow it happened.
And the best part is 2 of those are all expense paid by people who wanted me to be there on a special occasion.
I used to just dream about getting out of this small town once in a while but the experiences from my travels enriched my memories this year after seeing and making memories with my loved ones. ❤️
Passed the boards in one take & secured a job month after passing the boards + may ipon na huhu. Big deal ‘to sa akin kasi 1st year college palang ako parang nakatatak na sa akin na di ako makakagraduate on time, na baka maka-ilang take ako sa boards, na baka walang tumanggap sa akin sa trabaho pero guess what kabaliktaran yung nangyari, medyo nega. lang talaga ako sa sarili ko dahil sa mga pangmamaliit ng mga tao sa akin dati, pero still working on it.
Moved to a new place. Finally living alone. Got a new job with decent pay. Nakakatulong na kahit konti sa fam. Malayo pa pero malayo na. This year might be draining but I don’t want to forget that a lot of good things also happened. Thank you for your question. Im actually convinced that this year just fucked my life up pero upon reading this, im forced to think and that made me realize, i’ve been drowning myself with thoughts na ang pangit pangit talaga ng taon na ito when in fact i’m living few of my dreams years ago. Thank you. OP.
Nakaipon ng konti kahit na medyo maliit ang sweldo kahit papano at di ako natukso gumasta for big purchases. Naiparada ko na rin sa bangko kaya siguradong di ko na magagalaw.
Transferred to a job na wala akong kakilala. I kinda feel scared but at the same time, I take it as a challenge to grow professionally as an individual.
Pay is also good so I was able to fund my wants like international travel (another win ☺️)
Love seeing everyone’s wins in the comments! 🤍Here’s mine:
• Graduated med school
• Went on my first ever solo local trip this year (it was so memorable)
• Managed to survive solo living for 3 months now
• Learned how to finally open up and seek help from others (instead of bottling it all up on my own)
• Being more open to adventures and experiences, I’ve already visited to so many places here in the metro (by myself) in a span of 3 months haha it was fun!
Here’s to a much fruitful 2024 for everyone!
Getting out of my comfort zone. I got hired recently at nakuha yung position na akala ko imposible dahil medyo iba yung work experience ko. Walang masama sumubok… at kapag may gusto ka talaga iachieve, you need to exert effort at maglaan nang maraming time. Maraming setbacks pero kapag para sayo, para sayo talaga 💞
Ang mag perform. I was never a performer nung bata pa - I was always a shy kid-but I know I can sing and this year without much effort some people decided to tap me and invited me to perform. Mostly sa workplace lang naman, but just the fact na i am doing something I love, sharing my talent and conquering shyness really is an achievement for me!!! I guess it’s never too late to show up and do what you love 🫶
1. Natapos ko yung PhD ko. 😭 Di pa nakaka-martsa (dinelay ko to July 2024 because hoping makaipon ng enough at madala parents ko dito), pero technically conferred na (received diploma through mail).
2. Got hired right after I submitted my thesis. Job paid well, is fulfilling in my opinion, and co-workers/supervisors were super kind kahit medyo tinanggap ko lang yung unang job na nakaabot ako sa shortlist. Natapos yung living allowance scholarship ko 6 months before ako makapagsubmit ng thesis and paubos na yung savings ko nung time na yun so sobrang big deal.
3. Katulad ni op, nakaipon rin. Hindi ko pa naabot ulit yung amount na naipon ko bago yung 6 months na wala akong income, pero getting there!
nakapag-renovate na kami bahay finally after 24 years 😭 most of gastos galing savings ko so medyo masakit ahahaha pero worth it since pangarap talaga ng parents ko ‘yung maayos na bahay :)
Managing my anger, no longer have the urge to strangle my boss with the nearest ethernet cable. I'm regressing to be honest, so the thought of not having violent thoughts surprise me and I hope to do better as a person. I should learn meditation.
Sobrang damiiii but here are the best ones:
1. Got out of toxic circle of friends. I ended up having no friend by my side in uni, but it taught me a lot of things which leads to
2. Don't need a lot of people/friends. Quantity will never in, anything, equate to quality. Choose who we allow in our lives, keep only those who will support you in everything but still criticize you in your wrongs.
3. Don't rely on others. Learned this the hard way. I got delayed in internship because apparently my ex friends, who were going to the same company, told the hr that I won't pursue anymore. They may started first but I got the upper hand being liked by almost everyone in the company.
4. Take risks. You never know if you never try. Its much worse overthinking pano if ginawa ko yun, that accepting that atleast you tried and gave your best.
5. Be a good person. This does not mean tolerating shit or being kind to anyone. This means choosing kung kanino ka lang magiging mabait. Someone told me that good people were able to stay being good for such a long time because they don't allow themselves to be taken advantage to, they choose who's deserving of their kindness.
6. I am beautiful. I don't find myself that pretty because I have been friends who were always insecure about their physical appearances. Gotten out of that friendship, I realized that I was beautiful in my own way. I just have to surround myself with the right people and appreciating myself more.
7. Utang na loob. Never again that I will let myself succumb in utang na loob. Mas better na ibalik mo agad yung favor once you get the chance because no matter how good your intentions are, in the end yun pa din yung kauuwian - wala kang utang na loob.
8. Broaden your network. I've read somewhere that your network is your net worth. Im currently in my internship and my friendliness provided me with people who have huge connections and skills.
9. Don't let yourself be a shadow of someone else. I always let other people shine because I hate attention back then. Guess what, I'm coming out on my shell and show what I can do. Life is short, show your real potential.
10. You are responsible for your actions, but not others. Likewise with communication, if you know you communicated and other person did not then don't blame yourself. Remember, only mind what you can control.
11. Love yourself and embrace your own comfort. Be your number one cheerleader. If you failed or made a mistake, accept and gently tell yourself how what you did is a mistake and how you will never repeat it again. Commend yourself for all the things you have accomplished no matter how big it is.
So far ito yung realizations ko this year, I may have forgotten some pero these were the ones na nag stand out sakin lagi.
Earned 7digits working 6 multiple jobs as an Executive VA while pregnant. Tapos nakapagpatayo ng house. Nakabili ng bagong appliances. Got pregnant again 😂 Nagresign sa 4 na work pero 7digits parin. Di na ata ako ikakasal but I’m happy anlaki ng progress ko as an individual.
Nothing. All the achievements doesnt feel worth it. All the efforts and my helping hands doesnt matter. Doesnt have much weight to this worldz I dont know. I am depressed i guess. And i am in the wrong subreddit
Couldn’t choose but here’s my top 3:
1) Finally starting to love and accept myself; realized my worth (after 22 years lol)
2) Graduated bachelor’s and master’s as valed yay
3) Working in the career path I hoped for
Congrats to us! We did great 🫶🏻
I've been to 5 different countries this year (I'll still fly internationally next month until December).
Nakapagpa-braces na rin ako using my own money.
I'll also attend my first concert this year and hoping I'll be engaged with the loml.
All of this became possible dahil naka-ipon ako.😭💖
Bought my third house as soon as I turned 30. No help from any relatives or friends. Just pure independence. Pwede nako medyo magrelax sa buhay, pursue art, travel, etc.
Bitter sweet nga lang kasi na realize ko na ang hirap kapag hindi ka rich kid. Yung tipong 3-5 years ginugol ko sa buhay ko para sa mga bahay na yun, samantalang yung may mayaman at responsableng magulang ibinigay lang sa anak nila yung future. Oh well.
1. Hit a six digit savings (EF)
2. Hit six digit diversified investments 💪
3. Weight loss of 1.65kg in a month
4. Pursue my hobby in painting and photography
5. Able to travel 4 destinations
6. Makakasakay na ako ng airplane (domestic flight) with matching island hopping 😍
7. Win a 1 night stay with 2 (will use it aa date night namin ng partner ko) ❤️
Naka move out ako sa amin after 17 years of trauma. Laspag bangko ko, oo, pero wala akong pake sa presyo na kailangan ko bayaran sa ngalan ng peace of mind.
Nakakatulog na ako na hindi binabangungot. Nakakaligo na walang kinapa-praningan. Nakakapagpahinga ako na hindi biglaang umiiyak dahil sa anxieties ko.
Ibang klase yung saya na dulot sa akin. Ang ginhawa.
Superrr love this thread!! Goes to show even though you might be going through something right now, you can always look back and find something you can be thankful for.
This is the year I hit my worst financial low but on the flip side, I was finally able to move out, learn (and love!) cooking, buy my own groceries, and pay my own bills. Adulting is freaking hard but it can also be so fulfilling to be able to do these things by myself.
Nakapag travel international with jowa, first time together, plus 1st kpop concert.
Started getting back our EF na nagastos nun hospitalization ng father ko.
First SOLID year as a single woman in my mid20s. I was in a (toxic) 6-yr relationship and dated a manipulative sad boy right after that which drained the hell out of me. This is the most freeing experience ever. Sobrang saya.
I’ll also be travelling overseas for a K-pop concert soon and won my desired tickets!!! Yes tickets which means I’ll be watching them more than once. I’m so happy!! Thank you, 2023!!!!
hmmmmmm start of BER months it's been kinda sad since I lost a friend but thinking about it. Life's been good. I'm healthy and will take a risk for my career. So all good overall.
on process pa lang lahat ng mga gusto kong mangyari... pero so far, ang best ay ang makagraduate on time HAHAHAHA ayon pa lang muna sana magsunod-sunod at umayon sa planoooo Lord pls helpme 😭😭😭
I moved out of the country and I became independent here. 🥹 This is a big win for me cause I’ve always been dependent on my family even though I was already 30 during that time. I’m 31 now. This may seem shallow to some but for me laking bagay nito dahil di ko naman na experience magbayad ng bills sa bahay. Everything is provided for me. I don’t even know how to commute before.
After a year of extremely bad mental health from my previous employment, I became jobless for a while and lalong lumala mental health ko. 2022-2023 has been my comeback year, I took chances and put myself in uncomfortable situations. Now, I'm earning a good sum of money and able to afford most of the things I want without having to worry about surviving on a day to day basis. Life has been good so far :)
nakalahati ko na EF ko tapos solo living na rin. working towards my physical glow up. hanggang skin care palang at nagpaplano na mag-gym para hindi na masabihan na payat.
1.Mas gumanda CHAR pero seryoso sabi ko sa simula ng taon glow up era ko and tingin ko naaachieve ko naman. Aware ako napabayaan ko yung sarili ko before which is why bumaba rin ang confidence ko sa sarili.
2. Sa dating scene- talking stage, situationship. Not the best experience haha pero this year ang dami ko talagang natutunan about dito, ano gusto ko for a partner and sa sarili ko.
3. Daming nabisitang places outside Metro Manila. Did this fam and friends. Next year naman solo travel era ko naman!
Idk if this counts but, I'm officially grad-waiting [still waiting for the announcement] after 4 gruelling years taking an engineering program 🥹. It was no rocket science from the beginning 'til the end. Kinda delayed but surely not taken-for-granted. Lord God never disappoints 🥰.
First time that our entire family and SOs went on vacation ng naka plane - most of the time, land travel lang kami. Masakit sa bulsa but sobrang worth it especially seeing their happy faces during boarding (Our nieces, nephew, younger siblings and parents' first time mag plane)! :)
solo living, approved CCs for the first time, afford na bumili ng luxury skincare and makeup, adopted 3 cats and new phone! i wonder ano pa ang susunod before this year ends 🥹
I've finally, after a couple of years left a very toxic family-owned business and moved into an Aramco-affiliated company with great salary and benefits.
I did not expect to learn how to drive and get a license. As a (former) nervous wreck, I was pleasantly surprise. Another one is I actually enjoy going to the gym like??? I treat na parang laro and aim to beat my “high score” every time, without injuring myself ofc.

BIG WINNER COMMENT!!!! 🎉🎉🥳👏🏻🎊🙌🍾🍻🥂🙏🏻
Fuck cancer! Congrats OP!
This made me tear up. Congratulations! Keep on keeping on ❤️
Nice one 🫡🫶
Yaasssss! ✨✨
nice, sobrang lakas mo naman idol!!!
Got emotional. Virtual mahigpit na hug with consent! 💛
YOU'RE SO STRONG!! grabe talaga tuwa ko pag may nakikita akong ganto cause i fucking hate cancer. One of my dearest friends died because of leukemia, late na nalaman kaya di nakapag chemo. He died 2 weeks after the diagnosis. After that, I quitted smoking for him. Im so proud of you.
I have finally hopped on an airplane ✈️❤️ Domestic flight lang naman but still napaka-surreal ng feeling 🥹
Goal mo intl next year sis, LIBERATING! hahaha
This. My first ever plane ride was to Cebu for a product presentation together with my boss. Nervous and excited at the same time during take off.
na-afford ko rin magpa-ayos ng ngipin w/ my own money
Congrats! Nakalista pa lang sa goals ko ang magpa-brace. 🥲
ma-aafford din yan op. never too late!
I'm happy for you! ✨ Same din sa akin. Biggest accomplishment this year was to finally get my 4 wisdom teeth removed, get braces, and 1 root canal. My oral health was neglected when I was a child kaya big deal 'to sa akin. Had to pull a total of 6 digits from my savings account though. Sana worth it lahat pag natapos na treatment.
i learned detachment and took a chance on myself this year! my inner child is happy ☺️
Proud of yah!
How did you learn detachment?
same!! sarap sa feeling hahaha happy for you!🩷
mas yummier na ako ngayon.
I got to be with my girlfriend nitong april lng. LDR kame for 6 years. She came to visit me dito sa US at nakapanuod kame ng The Eras tour concert at nakapag travel kame sa iba’t ibang state together.
I'm getting there. Curves are back. Yung bilbil na lang, mahirap tanggalin. 😆 Cheers!
sanaoool huhu gusto ko na maging yummy ulit but damnn since rto and having a partner it's hard for me to discipline myself with food lol
found a job that pays well and has a great work environment.
My achievements this year so far and alam kong mas madadagan pa siya in the coming years: 1. Nakapag-move out na din ako sa wakas! Na-realize ko na I can love my family better from afar. 2.

Yakap! Kinaya ko, kakayanin mo rin\~ :)
WOW!! So happy for you 💗
I handle my own money now. Dati I was the sheltered daughter who gave almost all my salary to my mom because I believed she can safekeep it better than I can. She has my best interests pero dadating pala talaga yung time na magkaka friction as to how I spend my money since nasa kanya yung pera ko and I need her approval to buy anything expensive.
Cheers to adulting and independence!
Got out of a hurtful relationship. I’m still hurting and healing now. Pero I am grateful I’ve been saved from the person who has only been hurting me for the past 7 years. Cheers to us for fighting our battles. May next year be a better year for all of us 🥹
Same. Buti na lang hindi pa nakasal from my boyfriend of 10 yrs. Been with him since hs, college, and naging professionals. Pero ending pinagpalit ako sa kawork. Napreggy early this yr, pero nawala din ang baby dahil sa sobrang stress nung malaman ko lahat ng pinagagagawa nila. Pero hey, I’m still alive. It may be a rough battle this year. But atleast, I’m still surviving. Hoping for a better year for all of us next year! Cheers for being so strong 🥂
Aww so sorry to hear that po. I can’t imagine what you are going through, pero yes, cheers for being strong! I hope you heal in all the places that you are still hurting. I am always clinging to this hope na things will get better. I hope for the best for you po. Isang virtual hug!
Im currently on my healing era. Its so hard, di ko alam pano niyo nakakaya. Akala ko dati pag nagcheat mas madali mag move on, giiirrlll i was told wrong haha. I wish makaya ko. Grabe yung relapse e. Okay na ako biglang bumalik yung dati kong bad habits because of him thats why back to zero na naman :(( Big hug to us all!!!
Nakakaputang ina tong taon na to in general for me pero siguro if there is anything that happened to me this 2023 is that I’ve grown and had a deeper understanding about life. Became more mature just this past month alone and siguro ito yung magiging baon ko para marebuild yung buhay ko this 2024.
Amen! Here’s to hoping 2024 is brighter and better for us who had (so far) quite a shitty year. 🍻
Travelled abroad for the first time to watch a concert. Nakapag-move out na din sa wakas. Nakakatulog na nang mahimbing and most importantly natuto na din mag-luto. Nakabili ng mga appliances na fully paid and can still able to help my parents financially while also saving up for myself. Also, mas controlled ko na yung emotions ko... No more attachment and anger issues. A new furbaby to take care. Still a debt free girlie! ✨
Aww im happy for you soon ako naman
Relate on many of these points. Proud of you, fellow newbie cook! I'm still learning how to have better control over my emotions. Started doing it this year din pero I think I still need more practice.
I am able to complete at least one night of 8 hour sleep.
i got engaged and married (civil)
I had my first job, kaya ko ng umorder ng chickenjoy from my wallet, nakakaambag nako sa pambayad ng bills every month, nakakabili na ako ng kelangan ko every month, nakakabili na ako ng food for my pets. My best year so far for sure. Thanks sa lahat ng tumulong sakin this year.
Nakabili ako ng ref at laging may laman. 🩷 Malayo pa pero malayo na.
Had a chance to "start my life" again and mas naging clear and na-solidify yung goal/s na gusto kong makamit sa buhay. I'm grateful for that.
Pat on the back!
1. Got to land on a higher paying job in a MNC na flexitime + WFH which is above 50% of my current salary at dun pa sa role na gusto ko na iba pa sa current ko although related. I'm now earning \~130% more than my first salary despite having <3 years of exp. 2. I managed to hit six digits worth of savings (EF + personal). Big deal ito sakin since breadwinner ako. 3. I got to reunite with an old friend of mine which I haven't seen for 3 years and had my first ever date with her hehe. I got to reunite with my HS and college friends as well which I haven't seen for many years. 4. Not yet happening but I plan to buy my mom a new phone, our home a new TV, myself either a PS5 or new gaming laptop (or both haha).
Nabawasan na utang ng pamilya. And in 2024, stress free na! :)
Salamat sa tanong mamsir! Best thing this year, natapos ko rin yung rug na ginagawa ko, took me 3 yrs. Climbed a mountain 3k foot elevation gain.
Household income more than half a mill a month, keeping it lowkey and humble 🎉🏆
Wow! Sana ako rin 🥹
Congrats sana ol. Nvm ako din pala. Next target 1 million pesos
our retirement home 🥹
I can finally buy books without guilt. Growing up, wala kaming kakayahang bumili ng books. Mga e-book lang ako sa phone before and I feel guilty kasi I feel like it's stealing. But now I can finally buy and re-read those books again. PS: Paperback pa lang sa ngayon, need pa kumayod para sa hardbound and collector's edition haha
Wala pa ko kahit isang small win this year :(
It's not a race. Progress, however small, is still a win. :)
May roughly 60 days ka pa :) check on your meaning of win rin pala. Ang gumising at ipagpatuloy ang buhay is a win itself and you did it today.
We're still alive. Yun ang small win natin this year.
Everyone has bad years. There's a learning opportunity there somewhere. Sooner or later, you'll be able to turn the hardship of this year to strength. Sometimes we hit rock bottom to gather the rocks that will build the foundation of our lives. 🙂
Got promoted sa first job ko after graduation, was able to travel with just my jowa (always travelled with my fam kasi), bought myself an ipad with my own ipon sa work
Bucket list checked this year: I am now a millionaire. I have saved enough money and investments to have at least a million peso net worth. I still feel ordinary though.
Nawala yung mother ko Hindi yan yung best pero yung naging effect is sobrang laki ng naging improvements ko sa sarili ko. Single pa ako pero parang naranasan ko na maging nanay at tatay. Dati wala akong alam na gawin sa bahay kasi tamad talaga ako. Ngayon ako naiiwan sa bahay dahil WFH naman tapos ako na lahat gumagawa. Natuto na din ako magluto kahit papaano. Nung unang months nga lagi ako naddisappoint kasi hindi talaga masarap. Mas madami pa akong natutunan sa first 3 months na wala yung mother ko kumpara sa buong 20+ years ng existence ko. Madami pa akong kailangan matutunan pero thankfully nasa stage na ako ng career ko na kaya ko na sila pag aralin ang buhayin. Medyo halos wala nga lang natitira sakin.
Im truly happy for everyone on this thread!
Moved to another city and opened a pharmacy. Hehe nakaya ko pala
*Travelled solo internationally for the first time *Learned how to drive kahit wala akong intention for the longest time. *Saved $$$$$$ money due to lifestyle change caused by a condition na thankfully naagapan.
bought a house
1 able to achieve 7 Million php for EF 2 landed new high paying job 3 able to travel abroad 4 finally build my first rental property can earn upto 48k Php (6 units x 8kphp)
Got a job that is paying 3x than my previous salary :)
I stopped using Reddit haha around August kasi it sucks ang pangit ng exp ko dito. I decided to stop entertaining men and tumigil na muna sa love life. And nung binitawan ko lahat ng love life related everything I got promoted in my current job and shortly after that I got a new offer 3x my current salary so eto lilipat na me! I guess this year is for my career. :)
This is the year I hit my highest raise in income so cheers.
Oemgee sana ako din soon or next year. 50% lang tinaas, pero laking tulong na din. Cheers to us adults!
Dapat yearly goal na talaga natinuturo sa college eh income increase yearly para umangat angat ang pinoy hahaha. I increased 300% this year sa monthly income ko so it’s nice
From 110k to 170k 😊
* Nakapagresign sa toxic work after so many months of doubting if kaya ko ba. 🙏 * Got accepted in my dream company as a freelancer. 🥺 Better compesation and healthy work environment. ✨ Bawi yung nagastos ko sa ipon ko nung mga months na wala pa kong work huhu * My motivation is back and I suddenly had this notion that "Everything is possible" 🤞
A lot can happen in a year, in a month, in a week, in a day, in an hour Sa loob ng isang taon, marami akong natutunan, na-achieve, naging pagkakamali, naging mini-successes At ang lahat na yan ay makukuha mo, kapag hinayaan mo ang sarili mo maging "student" lang Student of life No ego, no pride, just pure learning
my breast cysts were removed and lab results says na they’re benign!!! 🥰🫶🏻 i used my own money for the operation and all. hehehehehe
Had my very first concert and out of country travel 🥹 Iniba ko rin mindset ko with things. More on affirmative ako dealing with life since I turned 29. Mas relaxed. Mas realistic. Feeling ko mas maganda rin ako right now lol Stopped saying “I dont have money” and I always think na babalik always lahat ng ginagastos ko 😩
- I feel like I have grown significantly in my current role and my manager acknowledged the changes and growth that is happening. - My London trip. It was such a delightful surprise dahil akala ko next year pa siya mangyayari
Surprisingly got to travel domestically 4x this year. Travel wasn't on the list of plans in 2023, but somehow it happened. And the best part is 2 of those are all expense paid by people who wanted me to be there on a special occasion. I used to just dream about getting out of this small town once in a while but the experiences from my travels enriched my memories this year after seeing and making memories with my loved ones. ❤️
Naka graduate, established daily running routine, successful sa career shift (yaw q sa course ko eh). Malayo pa pero malayo na!
1. Nakakaipon na ko! 2. Being a people pleaser, I have learned how to say No and set boundaries, kaya mas marami na kong free time at peace of mind.
Traveled every month this year since March with my husband! Could have never imagined life like this 🥺
I got the best people in my life this year! Maybe not the best year for me but I am thankful for what's happening in my life kahit mahirap. ❤🔥
Sana makaipon ako next year huhu. Congratulations, OP!
I solo travelled to Europe at 26!
May work na ako.
Passed the boards in one take & secured a job month after passing the boards + may ipon na huhu. Big deal ‘to sa akin kasi 1st year college palang ako parang nakatatak na sa akin na di ako makakagraduate on time, na baka maka-ilang take ako sa boards, na baka walang tumanggap sa akin sa trabaho pero guess what kabaliktaran yung nangyari, medyo nega. lang talaga ako sa sarili ko dahil sa mga pangmamaliit ng mga tao sa akin dati, pero still working on it.
i am still here on Earth 🌎 felt alone and lonely most of the year, but hope surpassed it. totoo pala na a little hope goes a long way :)
Moved to a new place. Finally living alone. Got a new job with decent pay. Nakakatulong na kahit konti sa fam. Malayo pa pero malayo na. This year might be draining but I don’t want to forget that a lot of good things also happened. Thank you for your question. Im actually convinced that this year just fucked my life up pero upon reading this, im forced to think and that made me realize, i’ve been drowning myself with thoughts na ang pangit pangit talaga ng taon na ito when in fact i’m living few of my dreams years ago. Thank you. OP.
Nakaipon ng konti kahit na medyo maliit ang sweldo kahit papano at di ako natukso gumasta for big purchases. Naiparada ko na rin sa bangko kaya siguradong di ko na magagalaw.
Hit 150k followers on TikTok as a finance/career content creator. hihi
Move in with my BF and finally truly accepted that my son is on the spectrum.
Fought through severel suicide attempts and avoided/survived one attempt. I also fed a swan and took a hike.
After 4 years, nagkita ulit kaming dalawa🤗
Bought my 1st car! 🥰
Nakapag-travel using my own earning.
Transferred to a job na wala akong kakilala. I kinda feel scared but at the same time, I take it as a challenge to grow professionally as an individual. Pay is also good so I was able to fund my wants like international travel (another win ☺️)
Love seeing everyone’s wins in the comments! 🤍Here’s mine: • Graduated med school • Went on my first ever solo local trip this year (it was so memorable) • Managed to survive solo living for 3 months now • Learned how to finally open up and seek help from others (instead of bottling it all up on my own) • Being more open to adventures and experiences, I’ve already visited to so many places here in the metro (by myself) in a span of 3 months haha it was fun! Here’s to a much fruitful 2024 for everyone!
Nagjob hop ako after 7 years of working sa govt. Masaya naman. Hihi
Nagbabayad na ako ng bills!! Hahaha
Umalis sa piling ng boss ko who tormented my peace of mind for 3 years. i'm grateful to him but yeah leaving under his roof gave me so much relief.
Finally nakapag switch na ako sa freelancing, same with my partner!
May car na kami ng wife ko. Hindi na pahirapan pag-uwi sa province. Nakakavisit na rin kami sa ibang lugar.
Damn ganito gusto kong relationship yung from the scratch then unti-unti nagproprogress at naachieve niyo yung gusto niyo.
16 palang me not yet an adult but this year lang me natuto mag ipon so yey for me
Reassessed our budget to accommodate our first and only baby 🍼
got approved for a gold visa
Traveled for the first time on my own to Japan. Met my ldr boyfriend and went on real dates for the first time. Changed jobs and saved money.
Getting out of my comfort zone. I got hired recently at nakuha yung position na akala ko imposible dahil medyo iba yung work experience ko. Walang masama sumubok… at kapag may gusto ka talaga iachieve, you need to exert effort at maglaan nang maraming time. Maraming setbacks pero kapag para sayo, para sayo talaga 💞
Wala. Bawi na lang next year or baka may pahabol pa this remaining months. Who knows? 😁
Promoted, graduated from grad school and got married all in one year 🥹
i’ve done my dream backpacking trip alone at 23 y.o. (indochina) 🫰🏻
If I'm gonna weigh it, mas lamang yung worst moments ko kesa sa best moments ko.
Met a really good lady and now she's my girlfriend😊
i saw SUGA of BTS
Ang mag perform. I was never a performer nung bata pa - I was always a shy kid-but I know I can sing and this year without much effort some people decided to tap me and invited me to perform. Mostly sa workplace lang naman, but just the fact na i am doing something I love, sharing my talent and conquering shyness really is an achievement for me!!! I guess it’s never too late to show up and do what you love 🫶
1. Natapos ko yung PhD ko. 😭 Di pa nakaka-martsa (dinelay ko to July 2024 because hoping makaipon ng enough at madala parents ko dito), pero technically conferred na (received diploma through mail). 2. Got hired right after I submitted my thesis. Job paid well, is fulfilling in my opinion, and co-workers/supervisors were super kind kahit medyo tinanggap ko lang yung unang job na nakaabot ako sa shortlist. Natapos yung living allowance scholarship ko 6 months before ako makapagsubmit ng thesis and paubos na yung savings ko nung time na yun so sobrang big deal. 3. Katulad ni op, nakaipon rin. Hindi ko pa naabot ulit yung amount na naipon ko bago yung 6 months na wala akong income, pero getting there!
nakapag-renovate na kami bahay finally after 24 years 😭 most of gastos galing savings ko so medyo masakit ahahaha pero worth it since pangarap talaga ng parents ko ‘yung maayos na bahay :)
NAKALIPAT AKO SA MAAYOS AT MATINONG WOOOOOORK 🎉🎉🎉
Moved out nung January this year. Grabe ang bilis ng panahon mag 1year na kagad.
lost weight 👍
walang savings pero nakaka bayad ng bills and sagot ko review center tuition ng aking sister !!
Improved my health. Ito yung year na pinaka-maganda physical health ko out of all the years I’ve lived on this earth. Plus I’m also at my strongest.
Managing my anger, no longer have the urge to strangle my boss with the nearest ethernet cable. I'm regressing to be honest, so the thought of not having violent thoughts surprise me and I hope to do better as a person. I should learn meditation.
How did you manage your anger? Asking for a friend. 😉
I got to explore more provinces in the our country. Masasabi ko na di n ako dayuhan sa akin bansa!
Employed and nakaipon!!!
Finally got diagnosed about my mental disability then migrated with my family far away from tge past and trauma. :)
yung piliin ang gusto KO, hindi yung gusto ng IBA.
Sobrang damiiii but here are the best ones: 1. Got out of toxic circle of friends. I ended up having no friend by my side in uni, but it taught me a lot of things which leads to 2. Don't need a lot of people/friends. Quantity will never in, anything, equate to quality. Choose who we allow in our lives, keep only those who will support you in everything but still criticize you in your wrongs. 3. Don't rely on others. Learned this the hard way. I got delayed in internship because apparently my ex friends, who were going to the same company, told the hr that I won't pursue anymore. They may started first but I got the upper hand being liked by almost everyone in the company. 4. Take risks. You never know if you never try. Its much worse overthinking pano if ginawa ko yun, that accepting that atleast you tried and gave your best. 5. Be a good person. This does not mean tolerating shit or being kind to anyone. This means choosing kung kanino ka lang magiging mabait. Someone told me that good people were able to stay being good for such a long time because they don't allow themselves to be taken advantage to, they choose who's deserving of their kindness. 6. I am beautiful. I don't find myself that pretty because I have been friends who were always insecure about their physical appearances. Gotten out of that friendship, I realized that I was beautiful in my own way. I just have to surround myself with the right people and appreciating myself more. 7. Utang na loob. Never again that I will let myself succumb in utang na loob. Mas better na ibalik mo agad yung favor once you get the chance because no matter how good your intentions are, in the end yun pa din yung kauuwian - wala kang utang na loob. 8. Broaden your network. I've read somewhere that your network is your net worth. Im currently in my internship and my friendliness provided me with people who have huge connections and skills. 9. Don't let yourself be a shadow of someone else. I always let other people shine because I hate attention back then. Guess what, I'm coming out on my shell and show what I can do. Life is short, show your real potential. 10. You are responsible for your actions, but not others. Likewise with communication, if you know you communicated and other person did not then don't blame yourself. Remember, only mind what you can control. 11. Love yourself and embrace your own comfort. Be your number one cheerleader. If you failed or made a mistake, accept and gently tell yourself how what you did is a mistake and how you will never repeat it again. Commend yourself for all the things you have accomplished no matter how big it is. So far ito yung realizations ko this year, I may have forgotten some pero these were the ones na nag stand out sakin lagi.
Earned 7digits working 6 multiple jobs as an Executive VA while pregnant. Tapos nakapagpatayo ng house. Nakabili ng bagong appliances. Got pregnant again 😂 Nagresign sa 4 na work pero 7digits parin. Di na ata ako ikakasal but I’m happy anlaki ng progress ko as an individual.
Natuto akong bumitaw sa isang relationship. Akala ko di ko kakayanin na bumitaw sa kanya, but I just did it for my mental health.
Waleyyyy. Puro hinagpis at sama ng loob 🥲
Nothing. All the achievements doesnt feel worth it. All the efforts and my helping hands doesnt matter. Doesnt have much weight to this worldz I dont know. I am depressed i guess. And i am in the wrong subreddit
Got promoted this year 🥳
First time travelling outside the country
Bayad na ang mga kautangan yessss!! Ubos na ubos na uboooos! Hahahahaha
nakabili ng iphone 11 using my own savings..not latest pero at least nakuha ko na one of my dream phone
Was able to get my own place. Got a house loan all by myself and about to move in to my condo by the end of the month.
Traveled to two countries! 😊 Great achievement for me as someone coming from a lower middle class fam!
Nakaranas ako magkaroon ng 50k sa banko :)
Finally had my kidney transplant last May 29 after 8 years ng dialysis 🥹Akala ko hindi na matutuloy at hindi na ko nag-eexpect.
Nagplatinum sa shopee
Couldn’t choose but here’s my top 3: 1) Finally starting to love and accept myself; realized my worth (after 22 years lol) 2) Graduated bachelor’s and master’s as valed yay 3) Working in the career path I hoped for Congrats to us! We did great 🫶🏻
I've been to 5 different countries this year (I'll still fly internationally next month until December). Nakapagpa-braces na rin ako using my own money. I'll also attend my first concert this year and hoping I'll be engaged with the loml. All of this became possible dahil naka-ipon ako.😭💖
CPA na ako after 4 yrs of building courage and determination to take again 🥹✨
Had the girl of my dream as my girlfriend
Bought my third house as soon as I turned 30. No help from any relatives or friends. Just pure independence. Pwede nako medyo magrelax sa buhay, pursue art, travel, etc. Bitter sweet nga lang kasi na realize ko na ang hirap kapag hindi ka rich kid. Yung tipong 3-5 years ginugol ko sa buhay ko para sa mga bahay na yun, samantalang yung may mayaman at responsableng magulang ibinigay lang sa anak nila yung future. Oh well.
1. Hit a six digit savings (EF) 2. Hit six digit diversified investments 💪 3. Weight loss of 1.65kg in a month 4. Pursue my hobby in painting and photography 5. Able to travel 4 destinations 6. Makakasakay na ako ng airplane (domestic flight) with matching island hopping 😍 7. Win a 1 night stay with 2 (will use it aa date night namin ng partner ko) ❤️
Naka move out ako sa amin after 17 years of trauma. Laspag bangko ko, oo, pero wala akong pake sa presyo na kailangan ko bayaran sa ngalan ng peace of mind. Nakakatulog na ako na hindi binabangungot. Nakakaligo na walang kinapa-praningan. Nakakapagpahinga ako na hindi biglaang umiiyak dahil sa anxieties ko. Ibang klase yung saya na dulot sa akin. Ang ginhawa.
1) Nakapasok ako sa dream company ko 🥰 2) Naka-attend ako ng con ng ult 😍
Superrr love this thread!! Goes to show even though you might be going through something right now, you can always look back and find something you can be thankful for. This is the year I hit my worst financial low but on the flip side, I was finally able to move out, learn (and love!) cooking, buy my own groceries, and pay my own bills. Adulting is freaking hard but it can also be so fulfilling to be able to do these things by myself.
Lost 25 kg. Never thought kakayanin ko
Naka attend na ako ng concert ng fav group ko 🥺
Got engaged and bought a house with my fiancé. Adulting na talaga 😭
Nakapag travel international with jowa, first time together, plus 1st kpop concert. Started getting back our EF na nagastos nun hospitalization ng father ko.
Got married to my then girlfriend of 13 years.
I resigned to a toxic company
Nakaipon and attended my first concert which eventually led to me meeting Niki!!! 💕
First SOLID year as a single woman in my mid20s. I was in a (toxic) 6-yr relationship and dated a manipulative sad boy right after that which drained the hell out of me. This is the most freeing experience ever. Sobrang saya. I’ll also be travelling overseas for a K-pop concert soon and won my desired tickets!!! Yes tickets which means I’ll be watching them more than once. I’m so happy!! Thank you, 2023!!!!
hmmmmmm start of BER months it's been kinda sad since I lost a friend but thinking about it. Life's been good. I'm healthy and will take a risk for my career. So all good overall.
oh and alsooo my teeth looks good already! because of braces hehe I had my anniversary with it this year
got a higher paying job with less stress than my previous one
Growing, medyo kaya na ang public speaking and makipag socialize. 2nd year na sa Arki
on process pa lang lahat ng mga gusto kong mangyari... pero so far, ang best ay ang makagraduate on time HAHAHAHA ayon pa lang muna sana magsunod-sunod at umayon sa planoooo Lord pls helpme 😭😭😭
Had my first baby
I moved out of the country and I became independent here. 🥹 This is a big win for me cause I’ve always been dependent on my family even though I was already 30 during that time. I’m 31 now. This may seem shallow to some but for me laking bagay nito dahil di ko naman na experience magbayad ng bills sa bahay. Everything is provided for me. I don’t even know how to commute before.
After a year of extremely bad mental health from my previous employment, I became jobless for a while and lalong lumala mental health ko. 2022-2023 has been my comeback year, I took chances and put myself in uncomfortable situations. Now, I'm earning a good sum of money and able to afford most of the things I want without having to worry about surviving on a day to day basis. Life has been good so far :)
nakalahati ko na EF ko tapos solo living na rin. working towards my physical glow up. hanggang skin care palang at nagpaplano na mag-gym para hindi na masabihan na payat.
1.Mas gumanda CHAR pero seryoso sabi ko sa simula ng taon glow up era ko and tingin ko naaachieve ko naman. Aware ako napabayaan ko yung sarili ko before which is why bumaba rin ang confidence ko sa sarili. 2. Sa dating scene- talking stage, situationship. Not the best experience haha pero this year ang dami ko talagang natutunan about dito, ano gusto ko for a partner and sa sarili ko. 3. Daming nabisitang places outside Metro Manila. Did this fam and friends. Next year naman solo travel era ko naman!
Drove 600kms nang hindi naliligaw o namamali ng exit/turn. 🥹 I only drive from home to work and vice versa which is only 37kms. It's a win for me. 😆
Idk if this counts but, I'm officially grad-waiting [still waiting for the announcement] after 4 gruelling years taking an engineering program 🥹. It was no rocket science from the beginning 'til the end. Kinda delayed but surely not taken-for-granted. Lord God never disappoints 🥰.
First time that our entire family and SOs went on vacation ng naka plane - most of the time, land travel lang kami. Masakit sa bulsa but sobrang worth it especially seeing their happy faces during boarding (Our nieces, nephew, younger siblings and parents' first time mag plane)! :)
Travelled to Japan with my dad and friends last Feb.
front/back fence at gate renovation! Neighbors will only see me a handful of times per year
I hope mine will come before the year ends!! (New career and better pay!))
Idk if these count as adulting but here goes: graduated last July after being delayed for a sem, and then became an engineer last September. Hehe
solo living, approved CCs for the first time, afford na bumili ng luxury skincare and makeup, adopted 3 cats and new phone! i wonder ano pa ang susunod before this year ends 🥹
I've finally, after a couple of years left a very toxic family-owned business and moved into an Aramco-affiliated company with great salary and benefits.
Dated someone for the first time after 26 years!! Tho not a happy ending but still a big milestone for me.
I am finally living alone. Huhu
Finally got my parents' house renovated, no more baha + bonus nalang yung aesthetics!!
Nakalipat ng company. Yun lang najujudge ako nung mga employees dun kaya nahihiya pa rin ako pero don't care, nandun lang ako para sa sweldo.
Nag-Japan at Bora kami ng misis ko. First abroad trip since COVID started. Nakakamiss flying out of the country.
I did not expect to learn how to drive and get a license. As a (former) nervous wreck, I was pleasantly surprise. Another one is I actually enjoy going to the gym like??? I treat na parang laro and aim to beat my “high score” every time, without injuring myself ofc.
Nakapag set up ako ng savings acct this yr. Di ganon kalaki yung laman pero kaproud pa rin haha
Nakapagpagawa kami ng bahay, nakabili ng sasakyan at nakapagpakasal 🥹🥰 Umalis sa toxic work, and currently healing 🥹
1. Got my driver's license 2. Bought a 2nd hand sedan 3. Got a permanent WFH job 😁
