Adios 2008!

I would normally feel bittersweet on the last day of the year, reflecting past happenings... some things I wish I did differently but they said what's done is done and cannot be undone. We learn from our mistakes and move on. I could cry and cry but it's not going to solve anything, just a waste of energy and my precious air mata :)

I'm an emotional person by nature, I let myself get absorbed with minor things and get affected so much that I'm unable to see things in perspective. 2008 has been a year full of trials and I have realized one thing... to be happy, I must make myself happy first and not worry about what other people think of me. I have always told myself to be selfish once in a while but it's hard to break the shell when all my life I've been taught to think about other people first. But don't get me wrong, I'm not out to make enemies ya :)

Being patient has its merits but not to an extent that it ruins your inner self, eats you up inside and hurts you to the core of your heart. So, in 2009, I don't give a damn anymore! Muahahaha... Hey, they did say it's survival of the fittest ya.

For my last post for 2008, I'm ending it with a tag by Yoon See. I still have pending tags but they can wait... I have the whole of 2009 to do them ;)

  1. Hey Nessa, first of all, let me say your new avatar looks super gorgeous:D

    And yes, I agree with you that we should first of all be happy with ourselves regardless of what other people think. After all, you cannot always be nice to people cos sometimes they tend to climb on your head.

    Here's wishing you a great 2009 tomorrow and may all your wishes come true:D

    Oh and we all dream of stress free jobs....... LOL!
