Dear Blog:

It's that time of the year once more. Another year has passed. So many unexpected things happened this year and I am not sure if I am really ready to face yet another series of challenges, ups and downs. I am thankful though for a lot of blessings this year has brought me. At this point, recalling the milestones- let me share with you some of the learnings I had:

1. It is not always okay to express one's feelings all the time. Perfect timing is important as well.

2. Over reaction brings forth chaos. Inner calmness may come handy at times. To Jun, Red and the rest whom I have hurt last Christmas Season- I have never expressed my apologies yet. I'm sorry. I don't expect things to be back the way they were. But I'm still hoping. Cheers :)

3. I can do things beyond what I believe I can. The perfect drive helped me through it. I thought I will never be able to get out of my CCARE comfort zone. Thank you IFS, MLD and the rest of the BOI team for making me part of you guys.

4. I can hate a friend that much. My tolerance for deceit is close to zero when it comes to friends. To Lyle and Cherry: I don't miss you guys at all. But i still wish you happiness.

5. There is indeed a second chance. Thanks to Jaymee, Jessy and the GX realm.

Here's to a 2011 full of HOPE.
