I'll be officially 22 in a few minutes now. Another wonderful year of my life is ending but I'm looking forward for more amazing years ahead. A FRESH START!
My 22 years of existence in this world made me who I am right now. The people that I met, the places that I reached, the memories that I made molded me to be the WOMAN that I am today. Yes, finally I have accepted that I'm now out of the teen department and off to face the world as a WOMAN!
*Fresh start too since I've finally made a real blogger account! I guess its just that TUMBLR wasn't able to satisfy my passion for writing. Its more of a quick easy blogger thing where most of my post are just re-blogs and not my own. I'm looking for a place where I could express my writer side! plus practice my writing skill as well! I just want something deeper. Something with more substance. I don't have anything against tumblog. In fact I LOVE IT! and I will still be updating my tumblr. I just need a place to start anew. A place more serious and followers doesn't matter because all I want is an outlet of my feelings through the words that I write.
22 and I feel old. Maybe because of the fact that at this age I'm still bound in school finishing my Business degree when a decade ago I was carefully planning my life and imagining myself to be in law school by this time. I want a new scene, I want something out of ordinary, I want something different from my daily routines. Praying that by the end of October I'll finally say goodbye College life and say hello to a new journey. Whether CPA Board exam or Law School, I'll see where the plan of the Lord brings me.
22 years and memories flashes back at the back of my mind. Memories of happiness, excitement and thrills. Memories of sadness, failures and thrills. Memories of songs, dances and plays. Memories of my melancholic life. I could clearly remember every beautiful scenes. While over the years I've learned to forget the ugly ones; to eliminate the unnecessary baggage. Leaving behind the things that might pull me back to experience the wonderful things that life has to offer.
22 years and I learned not to count my mistakes but to simply learn from it. Everything that I did, good or bad, I do not regret. Because who I am today was contributed by everything that I did in the past. And I believe that what I consist today are all amazingly great because of all the things that I learned and got wisdom from.
22 years and I finally found the wonderful friends that everyone wishes for. People who accepted me and knew me deeply. People that I want to build more memories with. People that I could imagine myself with when my hair turns gray and still will be there to share a cup of coffee with me and laugh with me while we remember every escapades that we made during our younger years.
22 years and still without a "LOVE LIFE". I'm proud to say that I am an official member of the newly organized NO-BOYFRIEND-SINCE-BIRTH society. Unbelievably at this age and time, I do am. Its my choice and I don't regret it. I remember how I sealed a deal with the Lord that He will bring the righteous man that He has prepared for me on His perfect time and I bargained that I will meet him when I'm mature enough, ready and independent to stand on my own feet without relying on my parents. When I am stable and when I have fulfilled the things that He wants me to do, I believe I'll meet the other half of my perfect love story.
22 years and I have learned the value of family. Simply, "COME WHAT MAY, THEY WILL BE THERE FOR ME."
22 years and finally I have learned to put God first in everything that I do and will do. To seek for His word. To crave for His grace. To serve Him with gladness and follow His way to wherever He leads me without doubt, fear or anxieties.
22 years and I could say that my life journey was beautifully authored. And I'm excited for the new chapters that will soon be revealed.
