Good bye 2014, a year full of life lesson~


2014 is ending in 14 days. I am sad that it is going to end soon and I haven’t done much good in it. However, I welcome the new year, 2015, hoping that it will be a better year.


2014 is a year full of lesson, I have changed, I think. Especially the way that I look at life. It just becomes clearer than ever, and it has not always been for the better.


Anyway, to recap goals set and what’s achieved:
1. Coffee consumption reduction – total failure!!! I just love drinking coffee. The good thing, starting from this year, less instant but more on the ground bean! I suppose it is better, no?


2. Sleep pattern? Worsen! Hmmm... I really have to work on the mind, but somehow just don’t know how.


3. Reading! I have done tones! I think I have been reading at least 3 books a month. You do the counting. =D


4. Work smarter! Definitely had improved compared to last year. Although it has been a 7 days work (with half Monday and Sunday), I think it is not as stressful as the first 6th months of the year. Achieved what is set and will continue with this until June 2015 at least. Again, plan may be just plan, but better than going blindly.


5. Writing – Sucks! Last year, it was like falling from the peak of the mountain to the valley. This year, it’s like from the peak of the mountain to the most bottom part of the sea. Hooray!


6. Travelling – Singapore – Checked! Bali at the mid of the year, and in a week time I am flying to Turkey with dad and mom. Finally... Although I actually plan it for the mid of next year, when it’s said to be a better month, but anyway, again plan remains just plan. Lastly, Malaysia for the MotoGP wasn’t planned for myself, and unfortunately was cancelled.


7.  Braces off!!! Completely!!! =)


8. Long Distance – It has never been easy and will never be... Counting the day that we spent together within this year is just heart-breaking. 6 days early of this year, 3 days in March, 5 days in June, 4 days in October and there will be none in December. All the numbers can still fit in my 10 fingers + another 10 toes! Magical~


9. Gadget! Will have to be postponed, but getting it soon, for the sake of work. My 5 years old compie is retiring of old age. Although it’s still working, but it’s in worrying condition. Still it has been faithful to me all this year~


I had better years... This year is really not my favorite. There are important things that I miss, important things that will never return back to me, there are important things that I just wish it could be different. But that’s life. It will never be as we expected, I learn the hard way. It will always full of surprises (sometimes it may not be the good one). It will always change and its course it's gonna change us who live in it. It has changed me definitely. My mind was better before, it has changed, unfortunately to the unfavorable directions. Sad but true... But one day looking back to this year, I will be thankful for all the things that had happened, as it helps me grow.


As I am learning, I still want to be kind even when I may not be treated kindly. I still don’t want to give up on that... I have given up so many important things, I want to maintain that one good thing in me.


As I am learning here, I still want to thank life, thank those who are always around in difficult times. I may not have many, but I have them! I am grateful of them.


Good bye 2014, a year that full of lesson~


Love,
Lin ^ ^
