thank you 2013

Few things I managed to tick off my resolution list: Start a gratitude journal, graduate, visit 1 place that I've never been before, join 5 marathons (actually I only joined 3 but... I tried t.t), accompany daddy and mummy more often, complete my 2013 to-go list (then again, only 80% but its an achievement considering I've close to 40 on it) and once-a-week-vegan plan (failed in October but 10 months = 40 days of no meat in the year!) 

The year wasn't filled with all rainbows and butterflies but I'm thankful for all the opportunities (good and bad) given throughout the year. Starting with the biggest highlight which is bidding goodbye to long train rides and sleepless nights, because we completed our last degree in SIM! Turning 21 is yet another milestone because it was an unofficial greeting to the dreaded adulthood. Just like any 20-somethings, I'm clueless and lost. But wherever I'm going, I'm on my way.

Explored deeper into the café culture in Singapore and also visited the land of dimsum twice, once with my dearest Shixian and another with the guys. Being able to visit new places are both therapeutical and eye-opening experiences, and I'm more than grateful for the people who share the same sentiments. 

Passed the one year mark with J which wasn't easy, especially with both of us in different paths of life. Thank you for tolerating my monthly nonsensical tantrums and giving your everything in this relationship. And I promise that this year would be better than anything else. :) 

So hello 2014, please be kind. For I will be taking babysteps into adulthood and pursuing something I never knew that I want so badly. Just a sneak into my new year resolutions: Travel to 3 places I've never been, get a gym membership (then of course be an active member), join another 5 marathons, start fulfilling my duties as a daughter (after getting a permanent job) and lastly, to fill my life with more positivity and contentment. :')
