New Year Archives - Page 7 of 7

2012 is going to be my family’s year. A few months before the new year, peanutbutter♥ and I had been making up plans… sort of like goals and projects for the upcoming year.

And according to my horoscope for this year, the winds of change is not yet done shaking my status quo and there will be a final wave of a sea oceanic changes.

Well, the only permanent thing in this world is change and I think I’m fairly good in dealing with changes.

Enough with the little drama, let me tell you all about our New Year celebration…

Sis and I prepared finger foods and ate earlier than usual. Our plan was to wait for the turn of the year in front of the computer shop as we eat more finger foods, drink to our heart’s desire and play with sparklers

Here’s a closer look of our New Year Spread.

2011 has been an amazing year. This is the reason why I can’t wait what 2012 has in store for me and my family.

I’ve always been a positive person and January 1st has caught me by surprise. It was not as amazing as I thought it would be. On New Year’s eve, I found out that a Malaysian blog has copied posts from my food blog and my travel blog, verbatim. It was frustrating and I reported it to G.

On New Year’s day, my mother asked me to open up my computer shop the moment I stepped out of the bedroom because a lot of kids are waiting outside. When I declined she blurted out a sarcastic remark about “how earning money is not that important for me”. It was New Year’s day, I didn’t wanna do what I always do 363 days of the year. I got angry and I wasn’t able to control myself… I’m pretty sure I yelled back. But I did opened the shop and after two hours, the frigging router went haywire and decided to take a holiday.

I closed it and went on a Ru Paul’s Drag Race marathon with my cousins and my sister who calls herself Anney. I thought my day has gone out for the better. Later that night, I found out I ran out of my favorite coffee {Kenco} just when it was so late and all the nearby stores were closed.

You know, it takes a lot before you could ruin my positive mood but the fact that everything happened at the start of the year is a killer. I don’t want to endure this kind of sucky feeling all throughout 2012.

I cried to peanutbutter♥…….to let it all out. He’s the only person I know who I can cry my heart out without judgement. He listened and told me too much bad jokes, I had to laugh. He’s adorable that way.

My tears flushed out all the negative vibes and the next morning, it was all sunny and positive again.

So I’m starting the year with all the L♥ve that I have and POSITIVE VIBES.

I just read my horoscope for the year and it was encouraging. It talked a lot about the winds of change and glorious career opportunities in the middle of the year.

Hmmnn.. who knows, I might get out of my comfort zone and explore a different career path like go back in customer service industry or look for Anesthesiologist Jobs. Anything that would me grow and keep me happy.

But right now, my family and the goals and plans and projects that we have is what’s keeping me happy. It makes me look forward to this year a lot more.

Happy 2012!
