2017 - Recap.

The fact that January is going to end soon still leaves me in a shock. Time flies that fast, huh? I feel so bad that I haven't make a new year post or a 2017 recap post kinda thing like what most people do. I have been busy catching up with life and especially, uni. Well, what an excuse.

However, I would like to thank 2017 for being a very very great year for me. In 2017, I said yes to many many many things. I learned to make important decisions, and especially, I learned how stand alone and solve things with my own feet. I learned that life can somehow be ruthless, but with a strong heart and positive mind, you can conquer it and good things will come to you. I learned that not everyone will like you, and it doesn't matter. How you love yourself and the way you treat yourself is all that matters.

In 2017, I made plenty of friends. Sure, I lost some friends during my journey, but again, it doesn't matter. I also volunteered to many new outreach activities, become more active in church, and helped to arrange some events. These might be small things to some people, but for me, it was entirely a new experience and I am truly happy for it.

In 2017, I finally turned 17 and got my identity card and driving license. Well, I was that excited, despite the fact that I still cannot drive... hahaha. Should being able to drive a car be my goal in 2018? Lol.

Last year, I got to visit Christmas Wonderland with the people that I love. It was raining so we had to buy a $1 poncho. I also got to try this very weird Smurf drink. It tastes good though.

And oh, I finally got the chance to visit Hello Kitty Cafe! This girl is a big fan of Hello Kitty and was very happy.

Also got the chance to visit the very end of Singapore (I can actually see Malaysia from there) just for the sake of taking this particular picture. Went there with my friends, soaked in rain, and we almost died due to car accident. Lol, what a very memorable experience.

If you ask me, what are my new year resolutions, I would say none. Why? Because I personally feel that we do not need new year to set new goals and change ourselves to the better.

However, in 2018, I want to learn to love myself a little bit more. To be gentle with myself, and be kind to my own feelings.

I also want to learn to let go. To let go of regrets, anxieties, insecurities, toxic people, and perfection. I want to appreciate the things that I already have, and people who have always been there for me. I want to trust people more, and lastly, I want to be closer to God.

And wait, I forgot one more thing. I want to have a good night sleep. Lol.

So hello 2018, I am ready for new adventures :)
