Strange, it's almost been a year

It's that time of the year for my annual year-ender post! It seems that my 2011 flew right before my eyes that it's only a few more hours before it finally ends and we move on to another year. 2011 was mostly a year of growing up for me. What with turning 20, dealing with never ending family problems, bumping elbows with immature people, and most of all, making decisions for my future. With that being said, I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who took part in making my 2011 extra special. ;)

First and foremost, I would like to thank God for all the blessings he has bestowed upon me, my family, and my friends this year. Thank you for always being there, always telling me not to give up. I'd also like to say sorry if we haven't been that close this year unlike the past years. I would make it a point to change this in the coming year. Thank you for giving me another year, another chance to right all the wrongs I have done.

Second, to my family who has always been there for me. Who has provided me with everything I want and need, sometimes, even more. A lot of bad things has been said and done this past year, and I would like to believe that this has only made us stronger as individuals and closer as a family. I know that we haven't seen eye to eye the past few months but I know that this is only because you want what's best for me. I just hope you would trust me enough to let me make my own decisions and live my life the way I want to. Thank you for putting up with me despite my selfish and badass ways.

Thank you to my girls, Myra Charisse, Cassandra Elize, Mary Jane, Joyce Germaine, and Lea Pearl for never making me feel like I'm alone in the world. Despite studying in different schools, having the stresses and demands of our individual lives, thank you for making time to see me and listen to my dilemmas. I could never thank you guys enough for what you do for me. My only wish for 2012 is that we continue to grow as individuals and that this friendship becomes stronger because honestly, I have no idea what I would do without you guys. I wish you all the best in your endeavors and know that I am forever here for you - to rejoice in your happiness and to fight your battles for or with you. :)

2011 was also a year in which I have opened up myself to people so I've made a handful of new friends. I would have to thank All Time Low and The Cab for this as well because if it wasn't for them, I wouldn't have the honor to know these lovely people. I haven't met most of you in person yet but I feel like we're really good friends already, so thank you! Meeting you all and going to concerts in 2012 are some things I am most definitely looking forward to! I hope to know you guys better (and on a more personal level) in 2012, Christine, Aya, Al, and Hilary! Especially you, Lara, cos if it weren't for you everyone I fangirl with would be younger than me! ;) I hope that all our plans for next year *wink wink* come true! Another shout out goes to Janjan who I've become close to this year! Thank you, love! Your friendship was truly unexpected. I'm beyond ecstatic we've gotten close this year! ;) And lastly, Rain, only because you became more than just a professor to me this year. You have been a friend that I could count on and talk to whenever the need arises. Thank you for everything and I hope that all your troubles be resolved as the new year comes. I love you, you bitch.

I would also like to thank every single person who judged me without even making an effort to know me and those few friends who walked out on me. Thank you to the enemies I have made this year for without you, I wouldn't be the person I am now. Thank you for teaching me one of the most important lessons I've learned this year and that is to be the bigger person. I am glad that I made a decision to cut you people out of my life completely. Don't even bother trying to make amends because that won't make a difference. I wish you all the best in the coming year and I sincerely hope you get a life.

Lastly, I would like to thank my better half, Kenneth, for being the universe's most wonderful boyfriend... EVER. Thank you for always being there even though I push you away most of the time. Thank you for pulling me back to the ground and being my foundation when everything seems to fall apart. Thank you for being strong for me and for yourself at the same time. It's amazing how time flies by so fast that we've already celebrated our anniversary and it doesn't even feel like we've been together for a more than a year already. We've been through a lot of misunderstandings and fights this year and I am super thankful that they don't turn into something major and that we get to fix everything when our heads have cooled down. I could say thank you a million times and that wouldn't be enough to show you how thankful I am for having you in my life. I love you, babe. I love you from the bottom of my hypothalamus, forever and always, to infinity and back ;)

Let us spend the remaining hours of 2011 to ponder on the things that we have learned this year. Think back on what mistakes we have done and remember to learn from them. Let us put every regret, hatred, and bad juju behind us so we could start our 2012 properly.  Let us open our minds and our hearts to whatever magic 2012 will bring upon us. THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF MY 2011! May God bless you and your family and may he continue to shower you with blessings in the coming year! ;) I love you heaps! Until next year! Stay badass! ;)
