I turned 28.
Woohoo!
Celebrated with nice, random people.
Lethal birthday drink.
Knocked me out good.

Had my whole week of sun, sand, sea, and shots!
I am now really tanned from all that sunshine lovin'
I love it.
I love how the color gets better with each day.
From the initial dusty, smokey color to wonderful bronze-y.
Yes, I'm loving the color.

I am no longer sick.
Everything's pretty much out of the system. (I hope. I pray!)
Yes, the necessary pills are still there.
At least I'm not constantly scared.
Worrying, thinking that, "OMG, this is it. THIS is it!"
Alhamdullillah.


2011 ended.
Don't really care about it.
Wasn't really an awesome year anyway.
I did meet some wonderful people.
Blessed in that sense.
Had yet another heartbreak.
But well, that's nothing new.
Scars are there to remind you of the battles fought and survived.

Now. 2012.
I don't really have high expectations for the new year.
I am however expecting a crazy punched-in-the-gut feeling to hit in a couple of months. (*ahem* three *coughs*)
Till then, I'm just gonna float around.
The way I see it, if you're good to me, nothing much's gonna change on my part.
Yes, circumstances are asking me to put my guards up.
But I don't see the whole point of it really.
People can say what they want to.

I wear my heart on my sleeve.
Always have, always will.

Work's still gonna be insane, I'm pretty sure.
Insane is kinda good right now.
My escape.
At least with work I know that some things are within my control.
Nothing much is beyond me.
Which is good.
I've always liked the feeling of knowing that I CAN do something.
Rather than to just surrender.
Surrendering isn't my forte.

So yeah. Quick updates.
A lot of wishes in my head.
A lot of hopes.
Things I shall, for now, just keep inside.

All you amazing people around me, I pray you'll have a good year.
One with less heartache.
More happiness, more smiles, more laughters.
Be good now.
Be kind.

Here's praying that 2012 will be much, MUCH kinder to me.

Amin.
