last thoughts for the year 2007

So. My last post for the year 2007. And what have I got to say?

First of all, a big THANKS to the One Above for such a fruitful year. I graduated despite my misgivings, passed the Board without a lot of effort [compared to my peers], vacationed in HK without adult supervision, got my own set of wheels. I'd be a big hypocrite not to acknowledge it otherwise.

And of course, the other more important things like having my family and friends with me. And finding Patrisha, apparently my long lost sister--we're so much alike, it's uncanny. Not to mention my long distance love affair with the the best guy in the world, Franco. Just how lucky can a girl get, all gloating aside?

But of course, it's not all roses and happy times. There were bad times too, though I've put most of them behind me now. Somehow, through it all, I managed to forget the mistakes and just remember the lesson learned from it.

And... Fuck. I want to laugh at myself right now. And I guess I should, for old times' sake. I'm so friggin' positive now I'm on the verge of an identity crisis. Part of me relishes the freedom from the angst yet another part never wants to let go of the negativity. I'm torn.

Hopefully, I'll start the new year intact, whole. Though I now have less than 24 hours to resolve my inner conflicts, I'm determined to choose one side and stick with it. And maybe, just maybe, face 2008 a better person than I am right now at 2007.
