Christmas 2011. New Year’s 2012. Birthdays. Or when we just wanted to party for no reason
Good day folks!
I have not been updating my blog with some heartfelt posts, but things have been going pretty smoothly on my side lately. I hope my readers can say the same for themselves. This year, I took the time to sit down and really think about my future, deciding what I want to do with it. I have got my short-term goals and medium-term goals all pinned up in my mind. All I have to do is make sure things go according to plan.
I have had life easy pretty much the entire time, I’d like to work hard and get where I want to be based on my own capabilities and abilities. It’s not going to be easy but success is never easy. It’s not going to be smooth sailing but every rose has its thorns. I think this is where I really grow up – knowing what I want and working towards that.
We are now in the second half of 2011 and it feels like it was just yesterday when we wished each other Happy New Year. Time is flying past so quickly I wish I could freeze it for a little while and just enjoy the scenery. Too much have taken place in the last six months, and now we have another six to go. Let’s make the remaining half a year worth the ride yeah?
**Sorry for the miscalculation, just realised it should be in the last five months, and another seven to go! I was probably not in the right state of mind when I wrote this
My bad!

Happy New Year fellas!
Celebrated it this year at Bakita @ Changkat with a few close friends over champagne!
Last day of the year. We are all anxious and excited at the same time, at the thought of having another shot at making this coming year a great one.
We want to do all the things we’ve always wanted to do but didn’t get the chance to. We want to say the things we’ve kept inside of us long enough because it has been too long.
What have you achieved in 2010? What have you done that you are really proud of? Did you manage to maintain the same friends? Were you able to meet new ones?
Have you done something that you never thought you would ever do but it turned out to be amazing and you feel incredible about it?
What are your regrets for the year? Things you wish you could undo, things you wish you didn’t say?
To some people, a new year is a fresh beginning. They make resolutions, they want changes, they want better. To others, it’s just another day we have to live. Why does it need a specific date for people to want to start afresh?
We are the masters of our own lives; we decide when we want to do something and then we do it.
So if somewhere along the year you decide things aren’t going so well for you, don’t wait for the following year to begin brand new. You can do it there and then itself.
Six years ago, I ended the year disappointed. But I got back up and I didn’t let it tear me apart.
Five years ago, I celebrated the following year happy. It was like I found something new in life and I wanted to keep it forever.
Four years ago, probably not as happy but I was alright.
Three years ago, I was beginning to discover myself. It felt like I have found my purpose in life.
Two years ago, changes were still taking place. I was still young, but I really grew up.
One year ago, it still didn’t hit me that I was still taking things for granted. I lived by.
I have been sad, I have been happy, I have been great, I have been down, I have changed, I still took things for granted; but I have learned a lot.
Today, as I am about to usher a new year into my life again, I can safely say I’ve been all of the above.
Every year brings me new experiences and lessons and I’d like to think I’m constantly changing – for the better.
As the years passed by, I’ve been awful but I’ve also been improving myself.
And as years go by, I want this process to be never-ending.
Because at the end of every year, I tell myself there’s a new spanking year ahead of me and I get to narrate it all over again.
I get to change and make amends, I get to make better and develop.
And so I always welcome a new year with an open heart.
Here’s to a great year, 2011
