Better late than never, I always say. Here, here to 2008! I call it my '08 because it is my lucky number, my lucky year.
There's something about '08. I welcomed it differently this year, single (still!), in a completely different country, with people I've never spent New Years Eve with, or in one persons case (ahem) in a long time. What did I feel? Amazingly, comfortable. We made our way to Waterloo bridge to catch the fireworks near the London Eye at midnight. Amidst the thronging crowd, big Ben chiming and chaos all around, I caught myself having a moment to myself.
I reflected on the 20years of my life that's passed by and sincerely, felt grateful that I'm alive and also proud that I turned out to be the way that I am. All my days of almost self-destructing myself and I've yet to made a absurdly life-wrecking mistake. Good job, Michelle!
This year will be a year of BIG changes.
It's the year I graduate (*fingers crossed), the year I turn 21, the year I transition into real adulthood, the year I find out what really lies ahead of me, the year I officially leave my teenage years of fun and frolic behind and take on some serious responsibility.
It's a new year and I can't remember the last time I've felt to refreshed, rejuvenated, renewed! I feel a year of nothing but good things, a year of nothing but progress, a year of nothing but peace in my family. This year just feels.. different. I sense it in my bones.
Happy New Year everyone! My deepest wishes for the year ahead of you. May you feel as naively optimistic as I do.
Pictures over the holidays!
I have an urge to brag about what arrived in the mail today. But humility is a virtue, so I shall do just that, be humble. *giggles*
