As I lay in bed typing this, about a hundred or thousands of people in my country are setting off firecrackers, turning off their stoves and preparing plates, spoons and forks and digging around for that special polka-dotted piece of clothing that they bought especially for this occasion.
Ahhh, folks. Another year leaveth, another year cometh for thee. Cannot believe another year has passed and yet I still feel as though the things that happened then JUST happened. Get it? Like they didn't happen months or a year ago. Sigh. The cons of getting older? (Hot dangit, I am so near to turning 18, it isn't even funny anymore)
This isn't going to be one of those lengthy blog posts I always do. It was supposed to be, but I never found the time, the inspiration and the right words to get what I want to tell you all, so I am resorting to whatever my brain can churn out right now.
2009 has given me a lot that even I am not sure if I should be grateful for. Honestly, there has been a lot of downs than ups, but I try to ignore that fact rather than let myself be dampened on this fine night. Suffice to say that most of the problems I have put off for so long have come to haunt me, particularly the one about my college course which jumped out of the ocean and took a huge bite off my ass after I tricked it with a piece of meat. College results are near to being released and I find myself the only senior not at all excited at this prospect because most of the courses I signed up for are courses that I don't like. College is so near and so attainable (provided I pass Physics and Trigonometry/Algebra which is.... LOL) and yet I still don't want to leave.
As 2010 comes, I want to look at things from a new perspective. Stop there, let me correct it, I want to live life from a new perspective. I have been so laid back and relaxed and nonchalant about everything for so long that I'm pretty sure that in the near future, everything will blow up in my face and I wouldn't have any idea how to fix it. This year, I am going to make sure that most of the difficulties I face will be faced as soon as possible, no matter how much my hand is shaking and my heart is failing. 2010 seems like a good year. It's graduation year, or at least hopefully, so I have to make it as memorable as possible as a Theresian.
I cannot deny that I will miss 2009. So many memories have been made in the course of that two thousand and ninth set of 365 days since Christ came. So in the light of that, I would like to say that in the next days or weeks, I will be recounting the memories I have made last 2009. No, this is not a countdown of the top tens or twenties or hundreds, because I will be retelling ALL the memories I find worth remembering. Okay, not just those worth remembering, but those that I actually listed down on my amazing 2009 calendar. Trust me, I was very vigilant in writing down those things that happened in everyday, even the day that I started having a crush on someone. LOL.
So we all have that to look forward to: you for reading and me for looking back and having a good laugh about everything.
This is me. I'm flawed, I'm hopeless, I'm the least bit emotional and at times, I can be tactless and emotionless and uncaring, but I have survived a year with friends by my side, my family behind me and my heart still beating, and that's all that matters. God has given me a chance still to start a new year and do it well, so I am taking His challenge.
HAPPY
NEW
YEAR
EVERYONE!
