Life As I See It

Happy New Year everyone!

While everyone has probably lined up their resolutions, I’m still trying to get used to writing "2008" on office papers! I messed up a form earlier today because of this!

SO, Anyway,what’s new..?

A friend I met online last week asked why I’ve stopped blogging? I told her "well, nothing new has been happening" and later confessed that I’ve actually been too lazy to write. Come to think of it, I just really didn’t have any bloody time! SOOO many things have been happening and half of them weren’t anything to be snappy about.

Last December was a ‘draining’ month.This was true for all these aspects ( in sequential order) ; financial, emotional and physical.

So here’s my story; 2 weeks before Christmas, I nearly thought I would have died from a car accident. Serious. You know when people say that your whole life just flashes in slow motion when you’re facing a life and death situation? As cliche’ as it sounds, It is VERY TRUE. The fateful morning when I decided to rush home during my noon break to get something, I wasn’t feeling very good emotionally. My spirit was down, and I was feeling sad about a lot of things that day. I was particularly sad because of an ugly argument I had with my fiance’ earlier that week. So all this sad, angry, negative emotions were being bundled up in my chest and eventually, I think led to the fateful accident. I was miraculously left unscathed, no serious damage to the car though clearly shaken by the thought of getting killed that very day. It became even rough for me when the man whose van I collided with thought it wasn’t anything serious,saying " alaaaa…teda apa apa maaa, kau pigi polis pun tela guna maa" .But, what made me even angrier at him and myself was that, I decided not to lodge a police report after a sargeant at Karamunsing Office said he would "help" me scare the bugger off by ringing him up and make him pay for the damages. I thought he was a heaven-sent, although I sensed some machoism show-off there. To make a long story short, this bugger gave me a hard time chasing him up and now, IMPOSSIBLE to get him to pay for my poor little Kelisa!

Why?

I lost this criminal’s number when my phone got stolen on Christmas Day!!

So you see how miserable poor me was?

I really treasured that Nokia N72. It was the first phone that I’ve actually bought brand new myself i.e without subsidies, hand-me-downs, phone exchange or trade in. And the saddest bit about it is that I’ve lost ALL 500 phone contacts.Sob!

However,having said that, there’s a LOOOONG list of things I should be thankful for and feel blessed for…and I refuse to tread on these sad stories this year!

So, in 2008..I am thankful for my family, my loved ones,Bianca my puppy and ..oh! Big Apple Donuts that’s finally here for every girl that needs a pick me up!

Bianca and I on the beautiful New year morning.

Big Apple Donuts for a new year breakfast. Perfect!

Happy New Year Everyone!
