closure

The year 2014 has been a mixed bag for me, a roller coaster ride that had its highs and lows. It was a happy me this time last year, settled in almost everything, preparing to get married. Thinking about when to propose, making plans, before everything came to naught. I was also getting used to the volume of work thrown at me. Life seemed so rosy and straightforward then

Fast forward to the end of 2014, thankfully I am still calm and collected, but many things have happened since then. XXX is gone. We broke up after close to 6 months of endless debates and quarrels. In the end, I don't think I blame her, for everything happens for a reason. Maybe it just wasn't fated to be. Anyway, hating is tiring. Am at an age whereby I shouldn't stress myself out too much thinking about has-beens and has-nots.

A year of self-discovery, I found this very interesting article in a website which can be used to describe myself:

I would think that most points below are true, at least for me

1) I am not materialistic, but I have a strong desire to surround myself with quality

2) I want to be noticed but not the center of attraction

3) I care about how I look but I don't like superficiality

4) I come across as moody and cold, but deep down, I am actually sensitive, deep and emotional

5) I am all or nothing, and rarely in between

6) I am understanding, listening and empathetic, yet incredibly stubborn

7) I rebel, but I also want to be accepted

8) I am wonderful and frustrating at the same time

9) I am feminine and masculine at the same time

10) I am a hopeless romantic with a dirty mind

OK, in order of relevance, they will be:

6, 4, 8, 5, 1, 3, 10, 7, 9 and 2
