I can't believe in 10 days, it'll be Christmas and in 21 days, 2011.
Well, I guess for some, it's time to reflect on what the past year has been and for me, it's been a roller coaster ride, metaphorically speaking. From entering 2010 with much enthusiasm, travelling mid year, getting engaged at the beginning of quarter three to today. Present. In between, of course there was always work and fun. I've realised this year I've been quite involved in performance art, like singing and dancing. Well, more of the latter. But, it's all fun. Although, I do think there were a few 'down' moments but somehow, they seemed so isolated now and insignificant and I'm sure I might have exaggerated about it when it happened. Oliver would reckon that as well.
But yeah, that's 2010. Good and not so good things happened. But if anything, those things that happened just add to my convictions on these few things:
Communication. Is. Important.
Not. To. Jump. Into. Conclusion.
You. (Or rather ''I'). Can't. Control. Everything.
Similarly. I. Can't. And. Don't. Have. To. Please. Everyone.
Be. Thankful. Always.
As for Oliver and I, well, it's been another year, another journey of getting into each other's nerves. To falling in love all over again. To discovering each other's quirks and vices. To learning to compromise, forgive, and love. I'd say it again, it's not easy for both of us to be apart and all. But to know that, in due time, we'll be, is something to hold on and look forward to. 2011 will indeed be another exciting ride or perhaps even more exciting. What with Oliver's PhD graduation, our Big Day, of me moving over to Germany, of possibly getting back to studies, of just everything. See how exciting it is. A bit scary also lah actually.
So 2011, we're looking forward to unfold you in all your glorious facade. Surprise us if you like, excite us but be kind will ya. Ta.
