But if you close your eyes, does it feel like nothing changed at all?

2013 is coming to a close. This has been a year of many firsts, many experiences whether I want them or not. But I've grown a hell lot, more than ever. It hasn't been an easy year from the start but I'm grateful for everything that has happened. 

I intend to sit down to reflect upon my year, the wrongs I've done and the little things I should do more, but not today. Today is for the new year though it may not have come yet. This should be written tomorrow at the strike of 12 but I have plans! Can't wait to see that bunch of girls and guys I've known since childhood. My favourite people :D

Come 2014, I hope I can keep some promises to myself. Mostly it's spending more time on things I love doing. 

1. 365
Yes, I'm jumping on the 365 Project bandwagon. A photo a day of anything around my life. Doing this to force myself to put more thought about what's happening around me and to photograph more frequently. I've been walking around all zombie-like and I hope to change that. 

2. 12
Insert a roll into my beloved Holga. One photo a month. Develop it at the end of the year. Considering snapping a digital version of the same composition to compare at the end of 2014.

3. Read
I'm not going to be overly ambitious and set a number of books to finish. Instead I'm just going to remind myself to read daily, however short it may be. Even a 5 minutes read a day accumulates. Also, this partly is the result of me being increasingly disgusted at my rapidly deteriorating command of English. I'm positive that all my recent essays would have been thrown back in my face by my secondary school teachers, and I'm rather upset at wasting my education ):

4. Run
I love running. I love the adrenaline rush with it and how great I feel for the entire day after. I shall make more effort to push harder every running session. 

Of course with all those come the usual new year resolutions to study harder and lose some weight. May the new year bring fruition to all these resolutions and promises.

Nothing ever really gets me down, other than when I feel that I am not wanted. One of the saddest moments is when someone isn't happy to see you. Body language tells a whole story on it's own. How pathetic is it that someone you barely know can raise a bigger smile. I hate life in university sometimes. None of the lecturers, professors, doctors, tutors, teaching assistants really care if you do well. Their job is to come to lesson, dictate the information word by word. If you are smart enough to question what you're learning, what you're doing then good for you. If you aren't, then try your best to tread water and not drown in the ocean. For the next 4 years. I don't understand how one can improve and learn from mistakes when tests don't even come back, not even results. Are we supposed to just bumble our way around? How am I supposed to know if I'm doing things right or wrong. Throwing people into tests without any practices just doesn't make an...
FUCKING HORRIBLE ENGLISH When I was younger, my mind was made up that if my parents divorced, I would follow my mom. Now that I am older, I see so much my dad's been through, and all I want him to know is that no matter what happens I'm here for him. To me, my dad's like God. Nothing can be too difficult for him. Seeing him so affected by everything that's happened (vague but I can't describe anything either because there are so many legal implications) makes me really upset. There's nothing much I can do except be his listening ear now and then, be his errands boy, and support all his decisions. I think it's rather upsetting that my mom is being so unsupportive. I'm really tired going back and forth the hospital. Will things get better from now? ): We get older, we see more of the ugly realities of life. I used to think that this life is mine. I make my own decisions, and I would go to any lengths to get what I want, disregarding what others ...

This is not the way i want my story to end

So tired of the routine. When will there be some spark in this life. I've lost so much dynamism over the years. Waiting for all this to end. Go out and live your life. Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end; Then the busy years went rushing by us, we lost our starry notions on the way
