GOODBYE XOXO

hello there 2018
and my kisses shall say my goodbyes to 2017

What a year, 2017 for me it already started in the weirdest way possible, yet thank God I still survived, in a way or another.

As everyone says, it was a rollercoaster, and indeed it was.

I went through many episodes, of all kinds.

Different phases, different moods, various friends, and different people.

I had a lot of “ change of mind “ kind of thoughts, for example, I always used to think that age plays a significant role of how mature a person can be, but thanks to some of you for proving me wrong.

I got betrayed, and stabbed in the back (Julius Cesar kind of thing), multiple times too.

I got good grades and bad grades.

I got into a one-sided “fight,” reassure the fight is not from my side.

I had the chance to work for the very first time in my entire life.

I got to know my twin too.

Unfortunately, I cannot share everything. But here’s what I’ve learned.

First things first, know who you trust.
Trust plays a huge factor in any important kind of ______ship. Know who you surround yourself with, can you bluntly say things out loud, or would the next morning be breaking news for you?

Don’t overthink.
I know that sometimes we can’t help ourselves but overthink things like a million times per second. We need to learn the art of not giving a fuck, and just letting things go. But, don't’ let serious things go, I’m talking about silly and stupid things, stuff that won’t benefit you in any way. Life is too short to waste your brain cells on stupid shit.

Composure.
This took me years to learn how to hold my composure, yet it was worth every sweat and tear. Holding oneself, from emotion to everything is very hard, even though you might mess it up sometimes because you’re a human being, and we make mistakes. But, let me give you a hint, learn how to stay calm, it helps.

The list can go on and on, yet as some of these trending memes say, I still got problems from 2012, but a bitch ain’t one.

2018 have already entered, and for some reason, I don’t feel good about it. But I still gotta stay wide awake and accept or decline things as they are.

One of my resolutions is to read 24 books; I have a blank canvas to fill up.
I guess the second is to be a stronger person, dare to be different.
The third would be to put my work and studies as my priority. 

In the end, I would like to thank my viewers and those who bother to read what I write. Special thanks to those who stood by my side during my breakdowns ( you know yourselves). Thank you too for those who thought they humiliated me ;). Thank you Mom and Dad, and thank you God for everything <3. Thank you 2017 for teaching me a very valid lesson: Try to turn your head back every once in a while, and check how’s the weather there.
