there is just a certain something about quiet, cool nights that makes you reminisce ... this time last year, i was struggling to get over the fact that im taking the class with the most difficult parents ever. and i was contemplating when i shld tender my resignation. if someone had told me that i'd be doing my degree this year, i would probably have walked away hahahah. now, into my second sem, im wondering whether this decision will eventually pay off in the end ... but then again, there isnt anywhere else that im supposed to be but here.
i feel that every year, there's something for me to look forward to. and im thankful for that. some people go on with their lives without ever looking forward to anything. and i think it's really sad. really sad that you're not living for something ... that you're just surviving, no?
2014 was devoted to being a better teacher, to finishing my bond off with a good closure and launching myself into anthr aspect of teaching. although at that time, i meant pursuing teaching in anthr organization. but god had other things planned for me. it was a year filled with celebration; the end of my bond, our engagement, a few of my good friends' convocation, my love's convocation and of course the highlight would have to be us getting a flat on our second attempt. i would say that we're pretty lucky ... 2014 was the start of greater things to come.
but of course, 2015 would be even better. with so many things alrdy lined up for me, i feel like im going to rush through it all and wont be able to enjoy each step. once sem 1.2 is over with, there's a mad rush to do my final preps for the big wedding, then im off to boston. and when i come home, i'll be days away from changing my marital status. of course things will never go according to plan, but my only wish is for it to strengthen me as a person so that i may learn from them.
2014 was awesome. but nothing compared to what 2015 has in store for me. let's get this show on the road.
