It’s that time again, to make resolutions and start afresh!
To unwrap the new
you and show them who’s the best!
It’s 2014,
there’s no time to rest!
Yeah! Yeah! I know I’m late but it’s only 15 days into
the New Year and I’ve only just found the time to write. 2014 has brought along
a few new activities and responsibilities on my side thus threatening my
writing time. However I’m not complaining considering the frustratingly
excessive amount of time I had on my hands in 2013.
Many of the plans I had had for 2013 sort of found their
way out of my hands and eventually fell to the ground, leaving me with very
little control over the entire situation. Thus I had a lot of time on my hands but
nothing to get my hands on. Fortunately,
for myself and the people around me I’m somewhat of a positive thinker (or that’s
what I like to believe). I found a little consolation in the phrase ‘your
twenties are for self-discovery’ and sometimes welcomed my unplanned plans with
opened arms, at other times I punched it in the face and hoped to beat it to
death. In the end I won! It was a difficult fight but I won! I was forced to work with what I had and to adapt as I went along. I learned a lot about myself along the way and spent many hours baking, decorating (cards, gift boxes, book covers) and writing (all served as therapy). During this time I also started my first blog, which I’m very proud of. I learned to drive and got my first car.
I’m quite certain that 2014 has a lot more in store for
me and I’m excited! I’m most excited about the fact that I can make a fresh
start. It's like getting a crisp, white sheet of paper at the end of your exam
to correct all the scratches you've made. It’s a second chance, every year! You
gotta love that!
My goal for 2014 is to work harder and give my 110% in
everything I do…and maybe read a few classics. Books I’ve read last year
include This Way Up by Paige Nick, The Boy Who Could See Demons by Carolyn
Jess-Cooke and Drug Muled by Joanne
Joseph.May 2014 bring all that you've worked for ;)
