Well this is the post I will make before my birthday tmr.
As the year comes to a close, my birthday approaches. After waiting 363 days, I get to be the same age as my friends in the same age group for just one day. Haha. To be honest I feel like a leap year baby,but at least my birthday comes every year,not once in every 5:)
2009. The year before 2010. What can I say about this year? They say its not possible to remember every single that happened to you,and its true I dont really remember what happened in detail. But this is my 2009:
I started the year off knowing it was my 2nd year in ITE College East. I was also "asked" to retake my Mathematics O levels again.
I put in hours into my Student Seminer project with my team,and we paid off by scoring top everywhere. I want to thank all of you guys for the hard work and sacrificing your personal and school time to deliver the project at our expected standard and beyond. Through we didnt manage to showcase it, I have no doubt it would've been a success,and if I had to do it all over again with you guys, I would:)
I met someone special at the Student Seminar. Through I fell in love with her at first sight, I now realise it is not possible between the both of us. Because she has her own principles and beliefs,which I respect, and mine. So the best I can hope for is friendship,which is fine too:)
I became closer to a friend,and I thought it was the beginning of love. She was nice and I liked her company and attitude. It seems too early to tell if there might be something between us, but I shall wait and see.
I started the year single,and I'm ending the year single haha. To be honest, I am happy. Althought I have'nt met her yet, I've been thru quite abit at the dating game and to be honest, it is NOT easy at all. I always thought relationships are easy to maintain as all you need is good communication with your partner. But after trying my hand at dating,and seeing the couples around me as a live example, you need the following:
Patience: Always let your partner explain their actions. Never rush them or they might end up feeling pressured or worse,they might end up lying to stop you from being angry. As a good friend once sent me this message: The reason your partner lies to you,is because you didnt give him enough space to tell the truth! Interesting eh?
Compromise: We are all humans. We all have our needs and preferances. I've seen partners who totally give way to their opposites because they want to see them happy. Although it is a delicate situation, I believe that it is win-win for both parties,because one is happy with the arrangements and the other is happy that everything is going well. So to all my couple friends,dont take it for granted! :)
Endurance: To last in a relationship, endurance is needed. to travel daily to meet the person,to have meals and make dates and book places and tickets and food and drinks and having to put with their mood swings and attitudes. It takes alot. My deepest respect! *salutes*
Forgiveness: Forgive,forgive and forgive. I have seen,countless times, how a word or an action,in anger,can ruin a perfectly good evening or even worst, a lasting relationship. So please guys,treasure what you have. I understand that you will get angry sometimes,it is inveitable humans after all are not perfect. But guys,you have no idea how lucky you are,that you have someone to back you up in an argument,someone to care for you when you're sick,someone to make your day. So dont let it all go waste because of one mistake.
Because guys,really,you have no idea how wistful I get sometimes when I look at you,and wonder if I will get that same feeling too.
So guys, that is my 2009. It is 22:58 now, 2hr 02mins to midnight and my birthday.
Happy 19th birthday Adnan:)
