Careless days

Been a while brother! The truth is I spilled liquid over my keyboard, which'd therotical explain my 2 week long absence. However, what did I miss? ... wait, no, what did you miss?
I finally managed to dip dye my hair! Its right definition is ombre hair but it actually turned out a bit orange. I am pleased though.
Moreover, I'm moving to another house soon! I'm kind of excited, an utter (new) house. I've seen it already and it really leaves me speechless in every angle I see it. Dunno what to think of it but for the fact that I'm ridiculously tired right now. I'll cut it short, left some random pictures since the last time. Have a pleasant night.

A heartfelt welcome in 2012

 

We spend January 1 walking through our lives, room by room, drawing up a list of work to be done, cracks to be patched. Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives, not looking for flaws, but for potential. -- Ellen Goodman

Live long and prosper!

2012

We're still in 2011

I decided to write the last post for this year with a few thoughts about this year.
For me this year kind of went fast. I remember around this time and exactly one year back, I've thought that 2011 will be another long way to go, but now we're already here and I realize how fast time flies. I don't know where to start, especially when my first post lays 4 days back but you might as well visit a previous blog. It reveals less about me, rather a few fragments in 2011 through meaningless pictures.
New year's eve is honestly just another night for me, that gives idiots a legal reason to throw firecrackers at almost anything. I have the feeling that nothing's really going to change after this night. I know that people use to make new year's resolutions but mostly, they can't keep 'em up and usually fail. Call me a pessimist, but I highly doubt that I will ever keep 2012's resolutions. But yes, I have a few in mind, just like getting more hard-working when it comes to school or starting to read more interesting books or gaining more self-confidence or minding more about my health, etc. Most important thing, I want to give my life more meaning.

Superficially seen, 2011 has been a rather unproductive year flooded with many broken promises for me. I'm frankly disappointed. I seriously need to reconsider my approach, if I ever want to achieve something in life.
As 2012 rolls around, I'm forced to move something for myself or else I end up disenchanted once again and I'm sick of that. I blame myself for thinking of having no control over what's happening nor over where my life is headed but that is an excuse. I have control over nearly every factor in my life yet I didn't do anything to kill that feeling/thought.
But if I think about every sporadically memory in 2011 profound, I've got to admit that it wasn't that bad. For instance, I graduated from secondary school with pleasant performances. I'm now in A-Levels, which makes me proud at myself. I finished my first book, which was Der Vorleser.

Farewell, 2011. We'll never get to see again.

I can't make any more sense about the paragraph 2011 by re-thinking and re-reading it. Past is past and it was meant to be. I regret that I didn't do much this year that could make me be proud of, but now it's the right time to get over it and work towards my goals. For now, I wish a happy new year and if you haven't made your new year's resolutions, you should do them now!
