As the end of 2011 was approaching, I was thinking of stuff (as many people perhaps did) and of course the question of new year's resolution made its way into my head. I am not one who ever did that. I don't understand the need for it - If you wanna do something, just do it. However as the days were ending, a thought came that I should list all the nice things that happened in each of my days in 2012. It first came to me that I should tweet it everyday or put it in my Facebook status - show a little positivity to the world. Then I realized, I might be in places where I'll have no internet access. So I bought a thin cute book to list everything and I decided I would blog it at the end of each month. That somewhat became my new year's resolution. As not interesting as it may sound, I thought it would be a good practice to dig deep into my shitty days (which I am sure will exist) and see something, anything, at least one thing nice that happened that day. So if these entries are boring, I'm sorry (I'm sorry too if I'm tardy in posting). For some people, they may put things like got married, saw my baby for the first time, got proposed, etc. If it's me, perhaps the nicest thing was a chocolate bar, but then perhaps you can sense how sucky my day was that a chocolate bar was the nicest thing that happened to me :) Some days the nicest things will send me grinning from the inside, some days they will just stop me from crying, but those are my life in 2012, I suppose :)
PS: I did use this blog to talk about stuff long ago. I decided not to delete the entries. To read a more sobering view of my life, you can go here.

May 2012

The nicest thing today was ...

122) 01/05/2012 - being able to get up at 10.

123) 02/05/2012 - surviving today.

124) 03/05/2012 - being able to laugh whole heartedly because of Opera Van Java. Desta was there. He's a skinny funny cute guy. Cute in his own way :P

125) 04/05/2012 - reaching my bed after a long day.

126) 05/05/2012 - when it started to rain at about 01:30 am - ish as I was about to go to sleep. Then also the fact that I got to wake up at any hour I please.

127) 06/05/2012 - the relaxing morning catching up on House and an evening with Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince. I was really sad for Snape when he had to kill Dumbledore. I still am after all this time. For me, that's the tragedy.

129) 08/05/2012 - surviving today.

131) 10/05/2012 - that the family got the package I sent home and mom loves the scarf I got her.

132) 11/05/2012 - Modern Family's Dylan. He becomes so handsome :) Also Raphael Saadiq's The Way I See It album.

133) 12/05/2012 - french class with people I'm comfortable with and finding out I passed the french test :) I got 81. It's a miracle. I did get a lower score on the orale part than my classmates but oh well ...

135) 14/05/2012 - talking to mom.

136) 15/05/2012 - 21 Jump Street. Thank you for making me laugh :)

137) 16/05/2012 - 2 Glee episodes back to back. The stories were rather weird but I'm glad there's another episode left in the season :)

138) 17/05/2012 - being in my room and knowing that I'm safe here. It's not much but it's really my sanctuary.

141) 20/05/2012 - The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel.

142) 21/05/2012 - the cool water during my shower. Singapore's been very hot these days that I started to take my shower without using the water heater and it feels really good.

143) 22/05/2012 - talking to mom.

144) 23/05/2012 - Glee. The season finale was really touching. Things feel like they're really gonna change :(
