Sayonara 2010

In the blink of an eye, we all will be celebrating the New Year in three days to come, meaning that 2010 is about to reach its end. Whether or not we are willing to set 2010 free, we have to no matter what. As oblivious as it may seem, time does fly without enabling us to stop it even for a second. It keeps moving forward unlike some of us who hanker to stay in their past, unwilling to let the bygones be bygones.

I am not that malicious to revile people in each post. As a matter of fact, I have tried my best not to be callous but I would rather describe myself as daring in speaking her mind than mean for not caring how many people have cried over my coldhearted words. This is the reality. The reality has never been sweet. It has been bitter and scarcely chosen to be swallowed since olden times just like how naked the truths always are that people feel embarrassed to reveal and witness them.

There are a few things I have done throughout this whole year and there are loads of things I wish they happened and I had them done into the bargain, but I did not manage to. I believe I still have a long way to go on my journey and I can achieve things I wish I could achieve this year but did not manage to, along the way.

Hereby I list down things I have done and did not manage to have them done.

Things I have done:

1. I’ve got my first salary being a teacher in a kindergarten.

2. I’ve proved to other races that my English proficiency has improved by being given a chance to teach the pupils English subject in the kindergarten.

3. I’ve cleaned up my home and taken care of the hygiene along the period before I entered UiTM.

4. I’ve given my parents ¼ of my first salary.

5. I’ve learned not to disobey what parents have decided for me because they were the ones who raised me up so they know what is best for me.

6. I’ve stopped spamming my ex and accepted the fact that he is not meant to be mine.

7. I’ve been away from my family and indirectly learned to be independent.

8. I’ve hugged my dad and kissed him on the cheeks.

9. I’ve entered a debate club in UiTM.

10. I’ve joined a debate competition and been qualified to semi-final.

11. I’ve been a treasurer of my class for 2 terms, juggling the thing I hate the most which is money.

12. I’ve gone out with my classmates to break our fast together at Tanjung Dawai.

13. I’ve been counseled by my best friend.

14. I’ve told the lecturers what I expect from them.

15. I’ve got A’s for law subjects that I first refused to learn.

16. I’ve maintained the grade for English subjects since primary school to university.

17. I’ve been to Stadium Putra Bukit Jalil for the first time to watch football game.

18. I’ve had a couple of favourite seniors : Senior Helmi & Kak Nabilah ♥.

19. I’ve been waking up early since day one of second semester.

20. I’ve read English novels for readers aged 17 and above.

Things I did not manage to have them done:

1.
Decode the ideas that I have abstractly in my mind into a book.

2. Stop watching porn websites.

3. Have my short stories published in The Star.

4. Submit an article to be published in News Straits Times.

5. Convince my BEL lecturers that my English proficiency has improved.

6. Encourage my father to find another job.

7. Finish up my English short story entitle “Mother Tongue, please?”

8. Buy new handbag to replace my ragged handbag.

9. Buy new baju kurung to be worn to classes.

10. Save money for the sake of my future.

Despite the things I’ve done and I did not manage to have them done, I never dream to starve myself, though. I know that obesity can cause me to die fast but I believe when the time has really and truly arrived, I will give a thought about it. But for the jiffy, I would rather eat as much as I please because I have my study to blitz on and I understand my body so well that I will easily lose my focus every time my stomach is empty.

I’ll be posting special New-Year greetings for chosen persons that have lightened up my days in 2010 in next post. Let’s pray that we will be rewarded long-lasting happiness next year.

You watch porn? Hurm, most people do watch it, but I'd be glad to know what were you thinking publishing it in public?

Khaleeqa Idrus said...

Yes, I do watch porn. I didn't think of anything else other than I had to stop watching it someday. And publishing it in public isn't a big matter, is it?
