Can't wait till I can do more traveling... :)

Totally forgot to say happy new year in the previous post ahaha my bad! Didn't have a great ending to 2011, but 2011 has been so good to me. I remember at the end of 2010, I was like "2010 was shit, 2011 better be THE shit!" and it really was. I'm so thankful for everything that has happened and couldn't have asked for more. There's seriously nothing to complain about. 

At first I was a bit worried that 2012 is going to be a bad year... Mainly because I've had such a great year in 2011, so I knew it would be hard for this year to surpass or even be on par with 2011. Then added with the worst time I've had on a nye while the clock stroke midnight in welcoming 2012 just further added to my doubt. It made me so sad and worried about what this year might hold. 

I guess it's because I think I have so much at stake this year. First and foremost, I'll be graduating and finally stepping into the real world with real problems, like what if I don't receive a graduate offer and can't find a job? What am I planning to do with my life? Where do I see myself in the next five years? Problems increase exponentially with age. 

Apart from that, I felt extremely lonely on the night of nye. I would have loved to spend it with a group of my closest friends, but they're scattered everywhere around the world or had other commitments. I would have much preferred just enjoying a quiet night by myself at home. At least then I would only have been alone, but not lonely.  

However, I have brought myself out of the miserable anticipation that 2012 is gonna suck phase. It was probably a pathetic attempt at creating a self defense mechanism, so that in case something goes wrong later on in the year, I can be like "oh I'm not surprised, I knew this was gonna happen since the start of this year was already shit" or something. It's so I can shove the blame onto something else.

But now I have a completely different perspective. I know that just because the start of the year was bad, doesn't mean that the whole year will be the same. I started this year with a low, but that's okay, because things can only pick up and get better from here... And it already has.  After all, life is what you make of it, so I will definitely adjust my attitude and enjoy all the experiences along the way. I hope everyone has a fantastic, wonderful year in 2012 :)
