Miss United Continents 2016 Jeslyn Santos and I

There are always two groups to blogging in terms of readership – the people I write about and the people who read what I write about. Both sides are automatically part of my captive audience in this site. And I always give equal importance, no matter what.

But for my Christmas blog post, let me focus on you, dear readers. The ones who stood by me, who will never allow a day pass without checking out what’s being offered and who consider normannorman.com as some sort of a hang-out place – be it for sharing good comments, throwing potshots at others or just adding up more substance to what I have already written about.

You stayed with me during my good days, my not-so-good days, my lazy days, my days of personal struggle and pain, days when I just want to leave everything behind but thought against it whenever the cloud of doubts would clear up and I can start seeing things clearly behind my thick glasses.

I work hard every single day. I wake up early and sleep late. I don’t mind messing up my body clock. For as long as I can still humanly deliver, I keep on churning out whatever screenshots from my brain can inspire me to just start typing on the keys of my laptop or tablet.

For 2016, here are memories of my blog coverages in photos. I never imagined accumulating so many images that a close friend once told me that my iPhone looks more like a public property more than a personal unit. 90% of it is devoted to blogging and whatever is left get to be used up by selfies and family activities.

I would’ve never lasted this long without you, dear readers. After all, what’s the use of daily blogging without readers on the other end to catch my thoughts? You always keep me focused. There may be times when it was just physically impossible for me to sustain the regularity of things. But through it all – drunk, sober, nice, feisty, tired, drained or just hopelessly in love – I’m still standing.
