What's Up With This Flu?!! x_x

Damn. I feel like I'm just wasting time with this bad-of-a-timing Flu. It's barely 3 days before the New Year, and here I am getting sick. I really don't get it; but I'm just trying to convince myself that things happen for a reason. Maybe this is God's way of making me get rid of annoying viruses and stuff before the year ends. That way, I'll face the New Year with a good health and good aura. Hopefully, this flu will be gone before 2012 starts.

Somehow, it's also my fault why I got this sickness. I danced in the rain, and filled my throat with more sweets and cold drinks than I could handle. Alas! I'm rewarded with this warning--get more, and you're doomed next year. lol. So, okay. i get it. Control, control, control. Will just have to take things positively, so the Next Year's going to be more awesome! Hello to you, Water Dragon. Please be nice to me although I'm a Tiger-born. :D

On Being "Nakama" ^ ^

I just love the anime One Piece. It's my favorite next to Rurouni Kenshin (Samurai X), Naruto, Fairy Tale, and History's Strongest Disciple - Kenichi. Not only because of the comedy factor (although I can't really explain the reason why I love it so much lol) but also because it values friendship so much; which for me is a really important thing. I have this strong connection with the said anime series, especially to the main character--Luffy. I can remember how my co-worker described the feeling that this anime brought to him "It's like love at first sight." lol

I encountered a lot of issues this year, particularly when it comes to relationships, or Friendship to be precised. Since 2011 is a year of the rabbit, they said this year's going to be peaceful seeing as how peace-loving rabbits are. But I guess peace has not been applicable to Tiger-borns like me. Maybe the rabbits took this opportunity as a way to serve revenge to their predators. They gave me hell. I've gone through a lot of heartaches. But hey, I'm still alive and kicking! lol It's as if I'd back down because of those trials :P

I learned a lot of lessons this year; and yeah, I learned them the hard way. I had cried several times, and felt pathetic mainly because I was too friendly or something. Yeah, that sucks. And I now realized that some people are just not worthy of your trust and affection. I should have listened to some real friends when they told me not to give chances easily (to random people). but hey, this is me. It won't make me feel any better to drive away or ignore people who seemed nice and all. Anyway, I may have been hurt; but it's not my lost. Karma is a bitch. So, good luck to those who know nothing but to mess with people's feelings.

The bottomline is that I now know how to refrain and control myself from being attached (so emotionally-attached) to those people who come into my life (old and new). I won't put up an unbreakable wall nor would be too meticulous in choosing whom to hang out with. Instead, I will accept them for what they are, give them chances but won't take things seriously. I;ll enjoy every moment, but won't be anticipating for more. Got to learn to be contented with the kinds of friends I already have--as they are more than enough, way better than any new acquaintances.
