Y2K + 10

A long honest personal writing ahead.


It's 31st December,
the last day of 2009.

A time for closure.
A time for reflection.
A time for resolutions.
A time for revelations.

Closure

I think I've found my closure. It took me over 6 months to finally let it all go. It's a lesson that I don't want to learn again, once is enough. I've made it through, and that chapter of my life is closed now. Although there are cicatrices deep down, it'll be a reminder for myself not to make the same mistakes. Good thing is, I've learnt what I can do, and how I can be if I let myself be. I know I may have became the crazy ex, at least I know what I did. Know what I did is not wrong, but it's not right either. I am just as selfish as anyone else.

I finally know it'll never be the same again, no matter how much I want to be friends again. I've said this many times before, I do want to wish you all the very best and may you find sincere honest happiness.

No regrets. =)

Reflection

It's been an interesting year for me. Lots of new beginings, lots of new adventures.

Work is beginning to be an integral part of my life. It's inevitable. My earnings slowly becoming my savings for my lifetime. Looking for ways to develop and grow further in career wise, making the right decisions, and presenting well in front of my wonderful group of colleagues. It's a whole new lesson for me, something so different from the previous chapters of my life. Grasping the concept. Work is work, life is life. Live the professional life~

Did quite a bit of travelling this year as well actually. Went to Sydney for my first company conference trip for two days. Hopefuly more to come this year. Drove to Tauranga and Hamilton to visit our dear friends staying there, exploring new cities. Highlight of the year, going to the Pinnacles in Coromandel, and the amazing New Chums Beach. Exploring lots of new places around town, going to places I've never been. Hunting around for food, trying out new cuisines.

There's so many people I want to thank my dear friends who's always there to support me when I needed company. A friend who bought me those lovely bouquet of flowers for my graduation, a friend who listens to me, a friend who accompanies me to places during earlier half of the year. I wish you all the very best with your studies and research, and may you find someone who would make you smile and laugh just as much. =)

Picked up a new skill this year playing the cello. It's so beautiful. I'd most likely be renting it again next year. The sound is just what I expected, and I love it. Brighter Future Musical has indeed made everyone's future brighter. The music, the story, the cast, the crew, everyone is just so wonderful and talented. Thanks for giving us the chance to be part of the amazing production. =)

A new beginning couple of months ago, following a meaningful wonderful friendship I shared with a really dear friend of 5 years. A friend whom I confided with since the beginning of the first year we met. A friend who had been there through all my ups and downs, a friend so patient and understanding. A friend who listens, a friend who responds. A fun-loving person to be around with, and definitely a big brother to all of us.

The new beginning for us is teaching me so much about what relationship is. Every moment we spent together is making me grow fonder of you, and seeing the other side of you. Thank you for all the sweet gestures, and being there for me. I can only hope that you feel the same way as I do, and may each day be better than the yester. I really am looking forward to next year, and discover where the journey may bring us. =)

Resolutions

I really want to travel next year. I already have plans of where to go in the coming months, and going to set it all out once I get back to Auckland. Have had all these thoughts of travelling since the early this year, and been saving up for the trips. So much to do and see in the coming year. Going to be an exciting year. =)

Revelations

Do what your heart tells you, be honest and sincere.

If things doesn't seem to go right, do share.

Key to a successful relationship, open communication. Acceptance.

Enjoy every moment, cherish every memory, learn to love.
