The year is ending

It’s been a hell of ride. It’s cliché, I know. But you know what? that’s what it’s been like for me and I’m pretty sure it has been too for everyone else. Of course every year there’s always something different that touches everyone’s heart some how. In general, there’s always that year that makes it special to them. My year has been great and sucks at the same time. But then again, I’ve said it before that that’s the challenge that we should embrace. Take it all in and look on the bright side of it.

New friends had been made, learn something new along the way. gain new experiences, made some fucked up mistakes, heart break is always along the way, drink when you’re merry and put down your sorrow (which ever the occasion you prefer). Great times it was this year. Great friends as always to take away anything that bothers you that day or week. I guess that is always what it comes down to. At the end of the day, when you look at it, if you remember the good times you had this year you’ll be like, “hem, that wasn’t so bad after all.” Yea you’ve face the fucked up moments that you wish you could do it all over again to fix it. But, it was what it was. That’s what unique about it. Gosh, I’ve been to some fucked up moments this year. But I let the scars shown so that I could remember it. So that I know I should have never repeat that again. Don’t put it in a closet and bury it. You’ll never forget it, that’s for a fact. You try to hide it but it will emerge some how, sometimes without even you knowing it at the worst possible moment. So might as well put it out there and let it be known.

I think this would happen to almost every one that’s a bachelor. As the years go by you’ll see one by one that your friends getting married and having kids. My brother had his first kid this year. which was really cool. I am practically an uncle. Her name is Jasmine, she is one of the cutest thing I ever seen. When I held her in my hand I just couldn’t believe it. My brother that I’ve know for my whole life is married and have this wonderful-little-breathing-human-being that he’s going to raise and take care for the rest of his life. He is in such joy as well. Then it got me thinking, dammit I want to have that too. May be I’m just a selfish bastard that just to enjoy his life for himself.

I love how I never stop to learn in my field everyday. I tried to challenge myself everyday at work. Be it a simple task or something that I cannot do, I try to see how it’s done and how to solve the problem. I guess that’s how I get through the day. Instead of complaining of how things don’t work out or broken or just doesn’t go the way you want it to be. I look at it through the other side and see how to face it. Whining and complaining just wouldn’t make it fix or better.

Many things happened, many historical things happened globally. I wouldn’t wanna say that I am fortunate that I witnessed it when I am alive. I am pretty sure that every year there’s always that particular event that makes it so gargantual to make that year so significant and printed in your life isn’t it.I guess I am pretty luck that I stay in this region because there wasn’t any nuclear plant meltdown or major hurricane headed here. Even though the Mass Transport train broke down for a few days. But you know what? It’s a freaking machine, shit happens. It’s not the end of the world. I guess sometimes we forget on how lucky we are living in this peaceful island that we call the Lion City. We take things for granted, that’s normal. Who doesn’t? The economic meltdown on 2008 still have some effect to everyone I’m pretty sure. How can we forget? Lots of people got laid off, many companies got bankrupt. We got back on our feet again but other business has always been affected in every sector. Prices go up for everything. From common commodities, goods, public fare transport to rent. Inflation will just keep on rising, you can’t help that. Oh shit, I’m ranting again…

Well over all, I had a blast and I hope that the year after this will but just as epic. That is if doesn’t end in a Colossal Armageddon like the Mayans would say it would.
