Here's to the new era, to new beginnings and to sweet endings!

It is with great pleasure that I type here tonight my final goodbye to year 2010.

Ohh yeah!

Here's to the heart breaks and pains that 2010 has brought me. Here's to the tears I've cried and the sleepless nights I had. Here's to the hole that was once drilled in my chest. Here's to stupid lies and stupid lame ass excuses. Here's to all the drama. Raise your hands and wave, goodbye! cause it's 2011 baby and I have no use of any of you anymore!

2010 has surely been a tough year, but it's one of the years where in I enjoyed my life most. Reconnection is the one word I can use to describe what I experienced. My reconnection with God, with my family, with my friends and most importantly, with myself. In 2010 I fell out of love, and fell in love once again. In 2010 I got my heart shattered and in that same year I got it pieced back together.

I cannot thank The Man Above for His constant protection, guidance, grace and more importantly, His love. For without all these that He has given, I would have been dead, insane, or severely depressed by now. God's stubborn love is the love that gave me and continuously gives me hope. Dad, thank you so much for being such a great dad. Disciplining me when I've done too much and too far, and loving me when I least deserve it. Thank you Lord for helping me endure this year, and for giving me the best way to en it! LOVE YOU DAD!

To my ever so patient friends who stuck by me even after all the ranting and crying and whining and talking, thank you so much. Thank you for being there in my lowest of lows, and because of all your patience, love and support, I have learned to once again be happy. Thank you for still looking at me the same, despite everything that has happened. I will forever treasure everything that we shared that year. Forever.

To you. thanks for giving me another shot to live my life in a better way!

To my church friends, thank you for the love and the support too. Though sometimes, you are the ones who make situations awkward. haha!

To Hazel my forever Term buddy and Thea my almost term buddy. Thank you! Words can never be enough, and will never be enough. This person I am now, you can actually take credit for. There will be that part of me that will always be of you. :)

To Beatrice, who stuck with me through everything, I love you so much. thank you for our revelation nights, and crazy random nights and food trips. you already know all this. But still, thank you so much!

To Martha, Audrey and Jabesse, who stayed the same even after several years. I am always here for you, and I can still be the "ate" you might be needing in the future.

To my barkada, whom I will not anymore name one by one. you the 10 of you. Thank you so much, for everything! You guys mean the world to me, really. more of us in 2011! :)

To Jica, Michelle and Roshni. to loves I never lost... Thank you so much for staying the same no matter the distance and time. thank you that we're still friends, despite everything else. :)

and to everyone else that I may have failed to acknowledge, I just wanna thank you for sticking with me through everything. it means the world to me. :)

And so with everything that has been said and mentioned, and with everything that has been withdrawn out of this chest, allow me to again greet you all a very very Happy start to the New Era! :)
