Goodbye 2011
2011 was indeed a roller-coaster year for me.
2011 was not exactly one of the best years of my life,
but this is the year i turned legal 18!!
2011, was easily the worst somehow.
This year was pretty tough.
Schoolwork was probably a reason for it,
being my nostalgic self was another, staying in my comfort
zone like forever was yet another.
I am a really sentimental person and I always live in
the past more than in the present. This replaying memories
in my head did me no good at all. I always got into "emo phase"
and I just couldn't really move on from my own 2010 memories.
I did try (desperately) to make things return to the way
they once were in 2010. But it was kind of impossible. I
ended up confused and emotionally distraught. I constantly
found myself trying to identify who I was and my purpose
and goals in life. Is never easy, I questioned life
and I know there is a need to look through all the problems
I was facing back then. What add more stress, was the
Alevels subjects we were taking this year. It was difficult
to find someone for H2H talks, as mom was busy with her work,
and at times I really feel like giving up.
As this grueling year went by, and looking back to it now,
I felt much more accomplished and more mature!
I grew stronger both mentally and physically, did I?
I discovered a lot about myself this year, like I actually
have "Stage-Fright", I can't speak to outsiders, I like to
be in my own comfort-zone... A lot a lot more. Of course,
I did managed to get over a lot of issues that was once
the cause of my sleepless nights. Well, isn't it right to say
that what doesn't kill you actually make you stronger.
It's really amazing how I still managed to pull through
this year, despite all the shit that has occured.
My chinese oral wasn't well done, my listening compre wasn't
either, my chinese paper was bad, OP presentation was worse,
Econs... *BANG WALL* TSK. Hopefully, hopefully, 2012 will
be a better year for me. One of the most amazing thing
that occured this year was most probably going to church
and accepting christ in my life on 2 september.
Life have ever since improve, I guess.
Of course, without my family and friends I wouldn't have
survived through this year. Although we might have tiffs, we made jokes
about each other, we teased, but still we had so much
fun together. Without them, my life will be nothing and
school will be boring. It is really a blessing to
have family and friends who can accept you
despite knowing all your flaws, they still love
you for who you really are.
When you give them shit, especially my family, because
I was constantly in foul mood some time in October and Novemeber
when the Alevels are coming nearer,
I still remembered I cried buckets due to the screwed OP and all
but still they give me their love and concern in return.
Thankful for my class too, they're really a bunch of joker!
They can make boring school life fun! And we won the best
improved class, a drop from 2010 best class award!
Their company throughout this whole year was a sheer delight.
SO 2011 was indeed a mixed blessing year!
There were depressing moments
and there were times when I just felt like giving up.
But then, I also had people who were always behind me,
giving me their support.
Not forgetting how they also made my 2011 amazing!
And if it hadn't for those setbacks,
I wouldn't have gotten to know them like how I know them now.
Without those bad times, I wouldn't have been able to enjoy those good times fully!
Last but not least, Thank you God for all your blessings this year.
Keeping me in sight, and giving me the best.
Without You, all this wouldn't have been possible.
Happy new year everyone! Have a really blessed 2012!
And I hope mine will be a fabulous one! Will be celebrating
my new year over in Taiwan with my awesome family
and will only be back next year!
