the traditional new year post
oh well, what would a new year post be if it were not typed out at 4 in the morning as usual just as I’m starting to feel sleepy and feel all sorts of other nonsense. so 2011 has been a pretty interesting year with lots of starts and ends. i guess it yet another turning point with NS finally being over, getting my first professional job and of course now that I’m in uni.
Definitely recall all the good times in NS and the not-so good times but all that seems so long ago now. Working has really opened up my eyes to many things in life and if there has been anything that made me grow up it would be that. Also got into my first car accident and hopefully the last one. it was minor by any standard but it really left a mark. I’m by no means a better driver but I’m just more aware. Back to my job, it basically opened me to so many things and allowed me to meet so many new people and establish the old. Ive gotten skills i never thought id pick up and yeah it also made me realize that life is really short and that there are really other things in life that is more fulfilling than being super loaded with moolah (although i must add a disclaimer that all and any money is definitely appreciated)
emotionally it definitely wasn’t the smoothest ride i thought i would be expecting but i guess coming out of it made me stronger and a lot more conscious bout what I’m doing. well, if anything, being on that roller coaster ride was quick and over pretty fast. then again, my efforts at compartmentalizing certain things have been pretty much a failure and yeah, I’m still worked up over the very same things over the past few years. i guess in that instance some things haven’t really changed. bleargh. all these years and nothings changed. too bad it would take some divine intervention for everything to really work out. i still haven’t summed up the guts to do what i need to. damn
but yeah, there are always 2 sides to the coin and yeah, 2011 if as a blessing can be summed up pretty much by the new people I’ve met and being closer to the ones i already know. people like the golden trio, caesar og mates, hall6 people, soci friends. who would have thought that there was so many awesome people that i would meet this year. then again the regular meet ups with the VS coffee club, ac dancers and sa5-kiahs really have been awesome. miss the lot of them. also gotten real close to mum,dad, bro and sis ever since i moved to hall. its really quality time over quantity although we would all like more quality time.
well 2011, u have been tolerable but thanks for the many awesome people that have come into my life. 2012, be nice.
