New Year 2K19 - A review in Mia's life.

Hello dear you,

So.... it's 3rd Jan 2019. I guess.... HAPPY NEW YEAR 2K19?! ;)

Well well... Twenty eighteen.

20-18.

2018!

... was overall a good year for me.

In 2017 I was dying. It was as rough as the waves in the ocean. My darkest time.

But it was my strength for 2018. I entered 2018 with a broken heart and self crisis - financially and emotionally. I was a nuisance to my old folks and family. But I bucked up and continue with my 2018's resolution of overcoming fear, self love and continuous improvement. Safe to say I kept up with my resolution.

I conquered my fears. I learned to swim. I started painting and blogging again. I followed my instinct, reenacted with my love of my life. I tried to come back home as frequent as possible to spend time with my family. I got my first proper job (in fact today's my work anniversary - 1st year of employment! Wee). I bought my first car. I conquered my bad shopaholic behavior. I started saving and realigning my money management. I decided to get married. And I could manage my anger better. Alhamdulillah alla kulli haal!

Basically, to put it out, me adulting was highly successful with my old folks' support. I will surely not be what I am without them both. I love my Mummy and Ayah too much. I cried. (During my year end leave, I had 10 days at home. One of the days, I was in my room when Mum suddenly came in reminding of the white garments and batik she has prepared when the day comes. I know it was good of her to prep but did it not hurt me? Of course it did. Secretly, there feels like a lump in my throat, unable to pass through. Phew! *crying again*)

And of course my family. Tho we're not the ideal-est set of siblings, absence of either one will have its impact.

And my love of my life - Koobs. For choosing and staying by my side despite what we have gone through.

And ultimately, big or small the achievements were, is all from the Lord itself - Allah SWT. For He surely holds the power to make it or make it not happen. Alhamdulillah for granting me such blessed life.

So to wrap it up, 2018 was a year of change as an individual. However, 2019 will be the year of change collectively since I will have to kiss the "Miss" goodbye. With the additional R in the "Mrs" comes the additional Responsibilty in my life. And then the adaptation to the new family, financial and future plannings.

But you know what, bring it on, 2019!

Love,
Mia.
