Warmth

Lying on the bed under the warmth of my thick blanket that I absolutely love ah I'll never trade it for anything else in the world. The weather is fairly cool outside because of the on-and-off rain. The shoes that I've been wearing all day were hell bent on killing my feet. At this time of the night I am actually and finally resting. This, my friends, is bliss.

So the past few days were pretty... normal. Until last evening: working alongside my sissies at VJC (right?) followed by supper time together with berno mars and chester soh. Finally the BBC is back in action (ha!) but trust me when I say that it was good to see all of them again to catch up because it really was. And that was probably the highlight of my week, because Christmas this year was unfortunately mundane. I definitely wouldn't wish for it to be like how it was but the family's all over the place and everyone else is off busying with their own celebrations so this year's was pretty much compromised. Just hoping that next year's will be much much better.

"Next year". Next year is in three days. It's really a two-minds thing: all December long I've been looking forward to it, yet I don't want it to come. 2012 is (soon-to-be "was") waaaay too fast for me to stop and think and breathe and grasp and indulge in all its glory. Twenty thirteen is gonna be another 365 days, another chapter, another story. And today is the day I realised that I have to really suck it up and move on into the new year. Not in a reluctant and haphazard way, but having to really sit down and think and pray through how I am gonna write my 2013: basically my relationship with God, my family, my friends and the goals that I wanna achieve - in school and in my personal life.

All my life I've never been a huge believer of writing resolutions (for fear that I'll fail to stick to them) (and then making me feel like a complete loser/lazy-ass). But maybe for this new year I will write some attainable resolutions. And let the next 365 days work itself towards achieving them. The end of 2013 would show the results of my determination and consistency for the year. Mmhmm sounds like a plan.

Mm I can feel my body warming up now. Must be all the thinking.

Cheers to the new year everyone!
