2016 has
been running for a week, I have been busy, super busy, lately that I can’t find
the time to actually recap 2015 on time. So here are both:
Welcoming
2016 as I say thank to 2015.
2-0-1-5
Last year
Jan 1, 2015, I had spent it in Turkey with mom and dad, uncles and aunties and
a cousin. Turkey’s sky will always have a place in my heart. It was a beautiful
country. However what makes it worth the while is that I am super happy to see
how my mom and dad enjoyed the trip, their first snow, awed by their culture,
and it has been a while since I travelled far with them. I don’t know when will
be the next time I will be able to do it with them again. L Thus, for that moment in the past, I
am happy for them, sincerely.
Nothing
much going on last year, I had reached my personal goal in my short teaching
career that has to be postponed to unknown time at the end of the year (2015).
So I am really grateful that I have met those good students of mine,
understanding parents and the overall experience. It is always great to know
what you do actually matter to others. That’s life isn’t it? Something that was
still related to this is that have passed the highest level of Chinese
Proficiency Test. (YAY!) It has been postponed since 2013, but as always, I am
proud that I actually can cross it off my list now. However, I realize that the
learning hasn’t finished, it’s ongoing! J
A few trips
I made this year are to Bali in June and not forgetting to stop by in Singapore
for a lightning quick visit. Bali was super good, loved one took his time off
to accompany me around and fulfilled all the promises that he had made (even
those that I have forgotten). It was a super good time. During that visit, we
too settled a few things out. We love, we lost, we trust, we disappoint, we
laugh, but most importantly we hold on and we are better! Something unforgettable during the trip is our road trip to Lombok. It is a long bike ride to the ferry terminal, long sailing to another island, times them twice before we got back home in Bali. No plan or whatsoever before we did the trip. It was spontaneous. And I am super glad that we made it well. I learned to trust in him more from that trip. I think he too appreciated that I am not actually a spoilt brat! It's a good trip! Singapore was good
too! Super even! In that short trip, I visited the clinic (was my second home
before) and saw those nice people in it. I managed to visit other friends from
other chapter of my life too. Thank you, people! J
October
trip was to Kuala Lumpur! There are 2 sole purposes: MotoGP and Shopping! With partner
and Mom! Ahh… the result of MotoGP disappointed someone, but overall, it is
good to get the taste of it. During this trip with mom, I am grateful of what
mom did for me. Hahhh… that feeling of being loved so unconditionally is
priceless, I will trade it with NOTHING. I am happy too because I can accompany
her for an eye-check and came home with a peace of mind that she is well. We
didn’t travel first class, nor stayed in 5 stars hotel, but somehow the trip
was an enjoyable one! Thank you Life!
In July,
received a phone call from a guy who asked if we should get married. That
wasn’t a proposal, that was a discussion. Yup! So I am marrying that guy. Only
then in December 26, 2015, he proposed when we quarreled. Now I got a ring on my finger and I will
always remember that day! Where else can I find a guy like that! Both of us are
not perfect, no one is, so both of us have decided to walk this life together.
So for Him and I, and our families, this is a big highlight of the year. So people, shower us with your prayers! J
At the very end
of the year, we are still figuring out our way, it will be continuous, it’s
life. It goes up and it goes down and we hope that we are granted the strength
to make things work, the good news is TOGETHER!
So, Thank
you 2015. Thank you for granted us with kindness, with patience, with
forgiveness, with big heart, with laughter and most of all with love. With all
those things we have managed our anger, disappointment, bitterness and tears
well. Thank you!!!
2016 be
kind to us. I have no plan for now. But I will manage. Although I am anxious
with the new title that I am going to have in Jan 24, 2016, I know deep down I
am going to find my way. I always have. Happy New Year, All~
