Here comes that dreaded time of the year, the New Year. Like all bloggers, I ought to do a post about 2013 and 2014. I'm glad to know that 2013 has been eventful and blissful for many of my friends. I even wished I had it half as awesome as they did. Perhaps it is my mindset, and how I should be grateful for the things I've had in 2013, but yeah... There were many things that could have been done better.

Why 2013 was awesome for me.
I should start with what made me happy in 2013.

I started 2013 with being attached. That was a huge happiness for me, considering I've been with really mean guys and then went on to think that I would never meet a nice guy. It's the start of 2014, and we're still together, going strong. Love you, hon.

I had a three-day work week at school, and graduated University. I didn't do as badly as I thought I would, and also, I found a job shortly after graduation. That was incredibly fortunate for me as uni-grads often complain about how hard it is to find a job after graduation. In addition, the first job was quite demanding of my time, and I was fortunate also to land myself another job at my current company. Yep.

I went to Hong Kong. It's somewhere I've never been to, and it's the second trip I had with my bf (with his buddies). Also, it's the first time I've been to any Disneyland.

On that note, I also managed to pull out some time, with some sacrifices from the bf, to visit attractions around Singapore. This included the quite awesome Universal Studios, SEA Aquarium, and Gardens by the Bay. It was really an eye opener.

This year I also managed to watch David Choi live @ Hard Rock Cafe Singapore, which has been a wish of mine since the first time he came to Singapore. I was still schooling at that time so it was hard for me to get to the performance.

This year I met up more often with my bffs Mel and Gel. We didn't meet up as often in the past because of busy school lives but we've made it a point to try to meet at least once a month for a meal. They were even nice enough to let me bring the bf along sometimes.

My 22nd birthday was simple but sweet. The bf booked a chalet at Downtown East so we spent time together having our own celebrations. We also got to play at Wild Wild Wet, which was cool.


Why 2013 was a pain for me.
So if you're sick of reading sad stuff, DON'T READ ON! Really, just, move along if you don't want to read.

Many of the timings for stuff were bad. While getting a job is good, the first job came too early, and I actually started work even before my graduation ceremony. I had to take unpaid leave for the event, and then go back to work the next day. I didn't have time to appreciate my youth and celebrate the achievement of graduation university.

The only trip I took out of the country was to Hong Kong. Now I understand that many people don't even have a chance to go overseas but look, the trip wasn't as enjoyable as I thought it to be. I went with a bunch of people whom I wasn't even close to. There was really very little emotional communication between them and me, and my bf had to be the middle person like, all the time. That said, he also fell sick throughout the trip and.. yeah the whole thing was bad. BAD. I don't want to do the same mistake of going to a foreign land with people I'm not familiar with anymore ):

That said, I didn't have a travel trip which I could enjoy, and then.. I started work.

Then I tried to remedy it, like all bad things. Try to make it less bothersome. I quit my first job, hoping to take at least a month off to tell fate I'm sorry for not appreciating my youth. Then on the first day of my break, my bf started his first day of work. So, I didn't have the couple time I planned to have.

Things were rough for him too with his family and all, and I was really hoping to refresh the whole relationship with this rare opportunity for a break. But nope, he had to start work, which left me all miserable because.. well, I couldn't do what I planned to do anymore.

That time, I fell into depression, I don't deny that. And I suffered. I pained inside and out everyday during that period of 2013.

I guess now I'm out of that phase but to end things off for 2013, I was actually home alone.

Yep. Sad sad lonely me on New Year's eve. Past two new years have been spent in Korea, AWESOMELY. Now I wished I was there again, not here being sour. ):


It's 2014 already?!
Can't believe it, but I've taken in the first sunshine of the year. I wouldn't say it was exactly bright and shiny. A part of me hope it would still be 2013, and give myself more time to set the year right for me, maybe make it a little more fulfilling than it is.

I really have not much hopes for 2014, except maybe for it to bring me less shit. For people to be a little more cooperative when it comes to me. But we all know nothing is ever smooth sailing. One moment it is all set and ready and the next moment someone comes and say 'SORRY~!' and it gets cancelled.

(As if sorry solves everything...)

I don't have anything planned for 2014, partly for that reason. Whenever I plan something, people more often than not, tell me to wait. And I wait, god knows when it comes true. AND, if I were going to be waiting anyway, why not just let things happen without my interference...

What is meant to be, will be.. And what isn't, will not.

How about that to pass the coming year, yeah?
