Annual Affair

2008 has been a good year, albeit the start of it includes me nursing varicella. Considering that it’s only April, I believe I have achieved quite a lot, finally getting round to doing the things that have been pending on my to-do list since forever. It’s like, if I were to die today, I’d die a satisfied death, knowing I have finally left the positive marks I’ve always wanted to.

Nothing beats the lessons learnt though, especially those about life, emotions and frienships. It’s the year I learn that people from our pasts do come back, and for what it’s worth, it’s important to start accepting them again. It’s the year that has me on the common side of the receiving end of even more flattery, but taught me to be wiser in my speech.

It’s the year I realised that sister and I will not always be staying under the same roof, and that before she flies off with the man who managed to sweep her off her feet, I’d better start showing how much I love her. It’s the year I started witnessing friendships morph into something totally indescribable, reminding me that I can never really be alone because there will always be people who either care, or are in the same boat as me.

I just hope the rest of the year will continue being as fulfilling. 2008, it’s a good one… Right, and now, I need to study. =)
