Unexpectedly

 Just when we thought 2021 would be a start of a probably great year, 

it feels like chapter 2 of 2020.

At the time of writing, Miri, which is the city I am living in is in red zone due to Covid-19,

and now undergoing CMCO to keep it controlled from getting spread even further.

Uncertainties started to flow in.

Going out for necessities or for leisure seems to be impossible for a moment now.

Going back to school for teaching seems to be the scariest thing to do especially when being in the red zone.

Not mentioning the weirdest weather where it has been raining and pouring almost daily,

causing wreak and havoc in certain parts of the city.

It has been only 13 days into 2021,

and yet, things seem to be getting more serious.

It feels like driving in an endless tunnel with no lights gradually.

Thank God, I have my sister beside me to keep me off from overthinking.

Thank God, I was able to call my parents daily just to update what's happening on both sides.

Thank God, I still have my best friend to text though not as often as before just to keep in touch.

and thank God, I have you who would text and the occasional calls to make me laugh and forget all these darkness for a while.

I hope that things will get better soon.

I hope we can meet up soon.

And I hope to see you and hear you laugh endlessly soon.

The feast.

 After a long journey, 

she had reached her destination.

She walked through the town and was in the middle of a feast.

A wedding feast, to be exact.

With the bride and groom dancing with delight,

and with the guests clapping, tapping and enjoying the feast,

she came across someone who looked familiar.

She walked nearer and nearer to get a clear glimpse of him,

and who knew it was someone who had accompanied her in her previous train journey,

a friend who was close for a period of time before he dropped off at the other station.

He smiled and said hello,

she smiled and waved back.

And it's the start of a new beginning.

A new beginning in a new town,

surrounded with new people,

and feeling warm again.

Thank God she decided to stop by,

Thank God she decided to join the feast,

Thank God he turned and said hello.

This is going to be another long stay.

And may this be a permanent stay.

New Year resolution?

I guess it's not too late to wish all a Happy New Year 2021!

May this year be a better year to all, 

and that this is the year where we all would be able to bloom in our most wonderful ways.

I do know that entering 2021 with the current pandemic scare,

and also, with lots of obstacles and hardships that stemmed from the pandemic,

each and everyone of us is going through a tough time.

But may this tough time bear fruits,

and that all of us would be able to go through it and eventually, see the light at the end of this tunnel.

As for me,

I entered 2021 in a different way compared to last few years.

This year, I was accompanied by my family and a close friend who have kept me accompanied during New Year eve through texts.

And when I thought that it might be over there,

it didn't.

Thank God for sending me such a wonderful person whose by my side from the day I met him by accident till now.

May good things come from this.

New Year resolutions for 2021!

I do not have much resolutions to be made this year but here are some of the goals that I wish to achieve b the end of the year.

1. Maintain my 62kg, pls! 

2. Appreciate and cherish the moment spent with him.

3. Appreciate and cherish myself each day.

I guess that's it.

2021 will be a year where I will try my best to reduce my workaholic attitude and spend more time on myself and this newfound warmth. 

May 2021 be a great year despite all the negativity and dark holes.
