Goodbye 2014, Hello 2015!

In 2 more hours, it will be 2015. It's amazing how time flies. Haha I feel abit sad and bored that I am not outside attending some countdown but I'm in front of the television especially since they keep emphasising how the new year will be a special year because SG50 (and my quarter life crisis, lol). It's okay, I'm attending Chingay for SG50! I think I'm damn contradicting, I want to go for countdown but yet on the other hand, I really hate squeezing with the crowd (I was at Orchard in the afternoon and already I kept complaining about the crowd). Lol, damn hard to please. 

This year, once again, lots of things happen, and I guess the most significant will be the change in job. There is a lot to be thankful for this year.

1)  I'm thankful for the good health that my family, friends and me have had this year. It will continue in the coming year.
2) I'm thankful for the travels I have had this year. More to come next year.
3) I'm thankful for my new job (I'm not unhappy with my previous jobscope just some issues that stress me out).

Of course, there is more to be thankful and grateful for in my life, more than I can list. Just being alive, having a family, home, food, safety... - having my basic needs met and having enough for some wants-, should make me satisfied and happy. Reminder to myself that while I should aim higher and for more in life, 我也要知足!  

Friday I will be going back to work, so let's review my aims for the holiday.

1) Lose 8kgs. Lol, the dream that never came true.
This is damn ridiculous. I didn't lose weight and instead I gained weight but I have been exercising. As long as I'm not out I will exercise. So I seriously don't know wh the weight isn't disappearing. Some people told me is muscle mass but I don't need the muscles, I just want to skinny and lose weight. Haha I told Karen I want to lose weight like previously, but she said is not possible because I'm no longer depressed. 
2) Pack my room
Done, or at least 80% done. My room is just too small and I just have too many things as I'm a hoarder, hence no matter how I pack my room will still look messy. It's like neat yet messy. However, I even vacumned and mopped under my bed. 
3) Decorate my room
Done!

Not bad right? 
3) Pack my wardrobe
Done. I donated some of my clothes away and threw some away. However I still have some clothes lying on my chair and on my bed because I can't bear to give/throw them away yet I don't really wear them but I don't have space in my wardrobe anymore.
4) Study my Korean
1%. Haha I studied abit.
5) Study phonics
Okay, I'm sorry I didnt study this.
6) Catch up on my blogging.
I think I didn't achieve this. I thought I will blog more but I guess I was too lazy.
7) Catch up on dramas??!
I didn't catch up on dramas. Instead I watched la pi xiao xin, lol.
8) Catch up on sleep
Definitely achieved!

Looking forward, now it's time to make resolutions for the year 2015.

1) Lose 8kgs. Haha I'm not giving up on this but I'm more realistic now, no more 15kgs.
2) Work hard in my job and give my best to the students. SPIN - know their Strengths, Prior knowledge about them, Interest and Needs.
3) Study hard when I go into NIE.
4) Go on 2-3 overseas trips. I'm currently aiming for Taiwan in March and Korea in December (I want to try skiing and snow but yet I'm afraid of the cold).
5) Drink more water, slowly and steadily increase my water intake.
6) Continue to keep my room and wardrobe neat.
7) Be more positive and less naggy.
8) Find a boyfriend. However, according to my horoscope, this year likely I can't find one.
9) Don't forget my Korean, continue to practice my Korean.
10) Blog more. I feel that this year my frequency of blogging wasn't very good. Maybe 3-5 blog posts per month.
11) Achieve work life balance. Work hard and spend time with my family and friends.
12) Be more sociable and expand my social circle. Smile smile and be more open.
13) Be more courageous.
14) I really really really hope that I can be somebody who give and totally 不求回报. Unconditional giving to me is really not easy, I guess I'm too self-centred
15) I know previously I kept making resolutions but I will just forget about them. So hopefully I can buy  quarterly review of them.

Like what someone recently shared, SIT - Start It Right - and everything will go smoothly later. So let's enter 2015 in a postive note and look forward to a great 2015!

Goodbye 2015 and friends I will see you next year! :)

This is home truly, where I know I must be.
