At the stroke of 12 last night, we are all ushered into 2012. Looking back, in retrospect, it's been a turbulent year yet again.
I've been thinking about 2011 and all that it has brought, and somehow it seemed apt to pen down some thoughts on the very eve of New Year's. Needless to say, this year has been a very emotional affair in more ways than I would have ever imagined.
On the last day of 2011, my 外婆 got diagnosed with gastric cancer. I wish time could slow down for us, for her, so quality time can be well spent with her. Mum's taking this piece of news better now - thankfully. Hang on there 外婆, you've been the best grandma around! We all hope that the one up there will treat you nicer! :)
On xmas day, I rejected someone the 3rd time. The emotional struggle within myself, to give it up again. Thank you for the times we've spent.
Spend NYEE with someone of the past. Its funny how we didn't feel weird during the dinner, and we still joked about our past and stuff. You've pampered me to a great extent, thank you for all that you've done, for me.
Spent my NYE in a peaceful manner. Hit the gym in the morning (needed a good sweat out session after the revelation of my grandma's situation), had late brunch with AJK @ Skyve (check out Skyve @ http://www.skyve.sg/). It's amazing how I'm still in contact with him after so long. Lazed around in bed and had a quiet dinner with mummy - Just wanted to spend more time with her.
My recollections this 2011:
1) Finally established myself in the B&F sector (Got my promotion, and thereby moving on to priority banking)
2) Completed my Masters studies successfully, emerging as the top student. Goodbye to those late nights burning midnight oil... (phew)
3) Went on a few holidays (Bintan, Alaska, Taipei, Bkk, Spain & Portugal). Its my most-travelled year in my entire 29 years of living
4) Chopped off my hair finally! Haa. Needed some 改变, and it's too bad afterall!
5) Glad to see Ryan getting into another r/s and he is so basked in love! Ivy also got back with JT, and they are so much better together now! Benny's wife Karen gave birth to superboy in the month of december! All my friends are doing so well, and I'm really happy for them :)
My resolutions for 2012:
1) Continue to strive hard in Citigold
2) Really x 3 slim down
3) Be happy
My simple 3 resolutions. The rest are secondary. Towards love and relationships, I have no more aspirations. I've learnt to accept things as the way they are. I'm thankful to have loved before - thats all I needed in my memories. I believe it's enough for me to last this lifetime.
时间让我学会了什么是后悔.
继续寻找属于我的那片天空...
So 2012 is here and definitely here to stay. Am I ready for what's ahead of me? I guess I am as ready as I can be.
