100

And I made a hundred!

Welcome to the 100th blog post of Lyndon Speaks!

Who would have thought that it will take me three long years to reach my centennial blog post here in Lyndon Speaks? If I were to blog every single day, it will just take me 3 months and a couple of weeks to reach my 100th post. But I guess the inevitable comes. Those busy days and those lazy ones have caused the quite slow turn-out of posts which led to a three-year run towards my 100th.

This may sound a platitude but I guess that no matter how fast, or in this case slow, you reach your own life's 100, it is how you get there that matters.

I have shared with you 99 of my precious memories, exciting experiences, my firsts, bolt from the blue thoughts, and life's important learnings. 99 times - you have been hearing what I got to say. For 99 times, I end up my posts with '[word] on!'. And for sharing your time with me, I extend to all of you my '99 times 99 times' of gratitude.

For the three years that I have been posting, I was not able to please everyone. I bumped into fastidious readers, I came across critics, and came face to face with those that just didn't like me. But I care less about them. I am not here to please anybody. I am here to SHARE.

The past three years were a blast - I graduated from college, had my first job, met new sets of true friends, travelled to far and different places, experienced things I have never done before, excelled on my craft (which I always do), had a share of the worsts, found a new beginning, and learned to keep only those worth keeping. All of these I have shared through Lyndon Speaks.

I guess that it would just be rightful that for this 100th post I share with you some of my favorite posts for the past three years. Get ready to sit back and travel with me down to memory lane. And for those of you who are new to Lyndon Speaks, this is one way to know the humble beginnings of this blog. Of course, there is still 'Lyndon's Peeks' at the right for an archive of all my posts.

My first blog post since I moved to Blogger. This is where Lyndon Speaks had evolved into the blog that it is right now.

A blog detailing the realization that sometimes we still have no idea of who we are - and that is what friends are for.

One of my favorite activities back in Lakeside. It really is so great to reminisce those good ol' times! And this is, by the way, one of the TRUE good ol' times!

Every post about the U.B.E. that I have with three of my great friends is my favorite. This is one of them!

Reminiscing the first time we sipped our coffee on the Starbucks branch that witnessed a lot of U.B.E. and fun memories!

One of the most unforgettable memories that I have! I can even recall every ounce of event that transpired during that night!

A realization that I did make a difference. And I'm still hoping that I am making one up until now.

The Divisoria Adventure I had with Shelly, Ecoy, and Justin. I still can remember the "search for the lost spaceship". Ang bad talaga ni Ecoy. Hahaha

My first attempt to save Mother Nature. This is also one of the TRUE fun moments at Lakeside!

My first out-of-the-country trip.

How can I forget 2008's Lakeside Christmas Party?!

A year-end blog post.

A realization that honesty pays off.

Find out for yourself why this is on my list of my favorites!

A post to inspire everyone to stop working hard and start working smart.

The re-launch of Lyndon Speaks - new design, new back-end codes, and compatibility enhancements (multi-browser and multi-platform support). How's Lyndon Speaks on an iPhone?! =)

--------------------oOo--------------------

I guess that would be all for this 100th post. Thanks to all of you for sharing your time with me (as always).

Expect that Lyndon Speaks will be LOUDER for the next 100 posts!

For the 100th time (and I will never get tired of this):

Hundred on!
