I'll search through the crowd.
I want to give thanks to people who've been with me no matter which path I choose to take. People who give me the shimmering glimpse of hope whenever I felt down and devastated. I know that I'm not perfect, with all the decisions that I've made in my entire life. Decisions that I've made with regret. Friendships that I had decided to let go over the slightest of reasons, like jealousy. I wanted to be better, but when I knew that I'll never be better than someone, I'll hit that auto-pilot button and abandon that flight that I'm in. Thinking about it now, I've made horrible changes to the people that surround me. Mistakes that can never be undone.
Putting aside the negative thoughts, like what I've said, I really want to give thanks to the people who have tolerated my craziness and the random thoughts that I carry every single day. I know that sometimes I may be extremely blur with things, but all of you put up with me and still included me in all your events. I really appreciate the fact that all of you never left me behind over anything. I'm becoming an OGL next year. And I feel blessed with the great company that I have right now, even though I have not been attending a lot of meetings due to my intern-ship. But all of you still embraced me as part of our family.
Tomorrow's my very first Christmas celebration at a friend's house. I'm never really invited for any Christmas events. Maybe this is because I'm usually overseas during this period of the year, or that my family doesn't really take Christmas seriously. It's just usually another day in most of our lives, with just another family dinner at night. Perhaps I've been taking the things around me for granted once again. Taking my family and the things that they do for me every single time, without lamenting, for granted. It's really a blessing, to have meals with your cousins and catch up with each other every single week. And it's amazing because we still have common topics to talk about despite our large age-difference. It's like my cousins really understand me, from the bigger things like knowing what to get for me during celebrations without asking me to the smallest of things like knowing my likes and dislikes.
Anyway, NYJC, like what I've mentioned in some of my previous posts, has been really a new home for me. I'm really grateful for the new friends that I've made this year, starting with the awesome Chanan 7, my 1320 kids, ODAC-ians, Chang-a-langs and the Novus family. We sure had our ups and downs, but we still stood with each other at the end of the day. I'm glad to know that all of us promoted, and that we'll be able to spend another fulfilling and meaningful year together.
This time, I wanna set things right. I wanna spend the last few days of 2013 to correct as much of the wrongs that I've done this year, to set myself at the right direction for 2014. It's time to mend some fading friendships and catch up with those whom I haven't been in touch with for a long time.
Oh, and Merry Christmas to all you readers out there (:.
Your face is all that I see.
