Now that it’s the end of the 2009, i guess it’s time for a recap.
I’ve always had a love-hate relationship with the coming of a new year. On one hand, i’m looking forward to the new year for a new start. On the other hand, i’d rather not recap the years that have past because most of the times i’ll end up with regrets and the ‘What could have been’ moments of the year.
But i’m guessing that there is only so much that we can choose to escape from. So it’s now time to face up to it.
In this year, my family life has somewhat hit a new low. (Or a new high, depending on how you look at it) Arguments everywhere. Tempers flaring. Already did my best to handle it. Perhaps certain situations could have been handled better. But i doubt the outcome would have differed much. This issue toke up basically most of my energy this year. Draining me thoroughly. Sometimes, i wonder if the situation that i have to handle is really as bad as i think it is, or is it that i have now adopted a ‘woe is me’ attitude. Kinda hard to figure that part out when i’m already stuck knee deep into the situation. Hopefully this change in address will do me some good.
So with that, resolution number 1) To better the relationship with all my family members.
With regards to friends, quite a few arguments happened. Lost a few friends, gained a few. Doesn’t seem like much was lost. Some friends stepped up to situations and showed me how much they mean to me (and vice versa) while others showed me disappointment. At the end of this year, i bear no grudges. I remember no misdeeds. So let all the negativity be forgotten.
Resolution number 2) To open up more to close friends and make more of an effort to maintain relationships with friends.
My studies toke quite a bad blow this year with all the happenings. Was actually contemplating deferring my studies for a year. Would really hate to fail on my part just because i can’t cope with the stress. Was convinced by one of my lecturers to continue on. Thus, plan B. Am now seeing my school’s counsellor to cope with all these stuff.
Resolution Number 3) To raise my GPA.
Time to shorten this post because i still have to pack in view that i am moving tomorrow.
Resolution number 4) To workout more. Not entirely because i wanna look good but also because i wanna feel good. Hate being sick all the time.
Resolution Number 5) Hopefully, a relationship that works out and last.
That’s all. 2010 is gonna be a time for major change for me i guess. Hoping with every fiber in my body that this change will be for the better. That’s it i guess. The last post for 2009. Thank you 2009. It’s been a rocky, eventful and exhausting year. But thank you nonetheless. It’s time to welcome 2010…
