Yes, It's that time again. Another year has ended, about 45 minutes ago and I'm sitting home posting this. Let me just point out that I am NOT lifeless. I simply happen to realise that bringing in the New Year is not simply about being with friends and getting drunk, although that seems to be what most of my friends are up to right now. After spending time nonstop with my family since Christmas Eve, right up to our family holiday in Kelantan which we just got back from at like 6pm on the 31st, I've kinda realised that no matter how much they drive me up the wall and make me all emotional and angry sometimes, they're still family and I know that at the end of the day if anything happened to me, they'd be there for me. =]
Anyways, this post is supposed to be a review of my 2009 and I must say, 2009 has been.. interesting. There was good stuff and bad stuff, evidently from the number of emo posts i have, the bad stuff outweighed the good stuff but you know what, at the end of the day what's important is that i learnt something from all the shiatss that happened.
I grew up a lot this year i think. I dont know what everyone else thinks, but i know and i feel that 2009 gave me a lot of curveballs that i had to learn to handle. In some cases, like a pro i caught them and threw them right back, but i suppose there were quite a few that i handled poorly and the simply hit me and bruised me. But I learnt from them, and I know that the next time it happens, I will dodge them.
The biggest thing that happened to me in 2009 is that I started going to church again and praying more often than simply only when I need God. I learnt to pray in tongues and to pray for others. I learnt to have a relationship with God and to grow from it. I think that was the biggest and best thing that happened to me. And I feel like some of the shit I went through this year, I couldnt have gotten through without knowing that I have God and he's always on my side.
But then, 2009 was filled with some crap people in my life. Some people who came into my life and screwed me up really good to the point that I lost myself for so long. Ethan, Roy, the other Roy just to name a few. I feel like, these kinds of people are the people who were brought into my life to bring me down but what d'ya know, I'm still here standing tall and strong and we all know that after everything I've been through, it's gonna take a hell of a lot to bring me down. My heart is strong.
2009 also brought me some amazing people closer to me and some new people who surprise me everyday. To Kavs, Thes, Dherej, and Dheren - You guys have been there for almost every exciting or dramatic or emotional piece of news I've had this year. Kavs, I told you the biggest secrets and Dherej you were the one I always told most of the those secrets first to. I miss all you Rawang monkeys extremely mucho and one of my new year's resolutions is to come back more often to see you guys. I love you with every vein lahhh ( hehe BIO drama :P).
To all the amazing people I've met in 2009, in college and through these friends, Chris, Davi, Manda, Elo, Carmeni, Li Ying, Nirai, Arun, Zac, Roshaan, Nicholas Rodrigues, Hanee, Nadia and everyone else on this freaking long list that I have, thank you for being there for some of the times that I needed friends the most.
Chris, for the time you brought me food since I had uber pain period cramps and couldnt walk.
Davi, for all the fights and misunderstandings we've had, we're learning to communicate and build a bridge to let the past be the river that flows underneath it.
Manda, for being my soya rice partner and just for being the you that i ♥ so much =]
Elo, for being one of my closest friends and for knowing when I need you to just be you and be firm with me so that I dont do silly things, and for all those times you've stayed over and kept me company.

Nadia, for always saving me a seat in Legal class and for those little heart-to-hearts we've had and for being my little sweetheart.
and finally, last but most definately NOT least, to Angelo. For everything. For the hugs that make me feel better when I feel like crap, for the advice, for the nice things you say, for having nothing to do so much of the time so that when I'm irritated with my other friends I can runaway to you in the lab cos I know they wont bug me then. For being there when I crumbled :') and for being someone I rely on.
And to everyone else that I may have left out, you guys have all played some little part in making my 2009 fun and filled with moments where I've simply felt absolute and complete joy. My heart is made up of little parts of each of you. I love you guys =]
So right here, right now; I can say this with gumption : 2010, bring it on!
