A bit too late ? :(

Too late for a new year post or a recap of 2013 ?
It's been long isn't it ? Before I get to the main part of this post, as usual, I have to explain myself. I'm not going to lie, I did have time to blog and I always have thought of blogging but for some reason, I ALWAYS procrastinate. Even when something exciting comes up, I'd always have it at the back of my mind to blog about it but shit just never happens sometimes. I have to say, if I ever really take time to blog (like now for an example), I have to prepare myself. I have to get myself together and actually think of ways to put my words into sentences. Cause a lot of times, what may seem to be a decent post today, may ought to be embarrassing in a few years time. Happens a lot to me and that's why writing a post isn't that easy for me but I still love doing this though. The hard work makes every post worth it !
So, 2013 was by far the craziest year yet. It was my last year of high school (still can't believe 10 years of uniform days are gone). Definitely going to miss school whether it's because of friends, teachers or just the entire experience itself. 2013 started off on a crazy note and it continued as so for the entire year. I've learned a lot about myself and I've also moved on from a lot of things and people that have been holding me back. Most importantly, I've gotten closer to my friends. Oh and the climax of 2013 was finally sitting for SPM. I managed to pull through somehow. God knows how my results will turn out but whatever it is, I did my best. Doesn't sound that crazy right ? trust me, if I were to pen down every single thing that happened this year, it would probably be a 5 sequel book.
Now, for 2014. It's 8 days through 2014 and I'm enjoying how things have started. I'm currently working as a part time teacher in a reading centre. It's pretty weird though. I'm usually very awkward with kids and I get a bit anxious around them. I mostly can't stand if they are too mischievous or active. I like the quiet ones because they're easier to handle and well behaved. Don't get me wrong, I was never a well behaved child. I was the kid that used to scream and cry everywhere I go and for some reason I can't relate to kids like that anymore. So yeah, this job definitely puts me outside of my comfort zone but it's a great experience. Something that I'm really having mixed emotions about for this year would be getting my SPM results in March. I really want to get over with it but at the same time I'm beyond nervous cause I know I probably didn't do so well but I guess, I'll just have to wait and see. I'm also extremely hyped about starting college. Can't wait to start that chapter of my life. In case you were wondering how and who I spent New year with .. well first off, I was home like the loner I am and I was dead sick. I had a week of food poisoning and fever. I was forced to cancel my countdown plans. Surprisingly, on new year's eve night, Pitch Perfect was playing on HBO so that was pretty good and as soon as that was over, Wye Onn called me on my house phone and spent nearly an hour accompanying me. At sharp 12, we both wished each other. Pretty cool right ? who says you need to go out on fancy outings and dinners to celebrate ? we kept things simple yet memorable. Right after our call ended, I was whatsapp-ing him and out of a sudden, Chee Loong calls me and talks to me until 2.30am. To sum things up, I managed to spend time with some of my close friends at least. Not so bad I'd say for someone who could rarely get out of bed that day. So yeah, I wish everyone is having a great 2014 and to those who are not having quite the year, hang in there !
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE :) have a blessed 2014.
