How Did I Get Here ?

By Monday, December 30, 2013 ,

With the year coming to an end, I read my post from last new year and it felt like a huge slap on my face. They say you should always be careful of what you wish for, because it might just come true.

This is what I wrote last new year -

Also,I am not taking up any resolutions this year, I am just going to try and be a better person. Not better in anyone else's eye but myself. This year is going to be about me - I am going to do what I want and say what I need to say. Try and be more independent and stop relying on others. Because the best feeling  in this world is when you don't need anyone else just to be happy.


I can proudly tell you that I have become completely independent. I have stopped relying on others. And in fact, I don't need anyone else to be happy, I am pretty content with myself. Somewhere I have become better in my own eye. But all of this came at a cost and I ended up hurting someone I didn't even mean to.
A lot of people close to me say I am a very 'selfish' person. If searching happiness for yourself is selfish, then may be I am selfish.


Any how, here are some of the big moments of 2013 in my life :


  • Bought a brand new android
  • Learned how to drive (FINALLY !)
  • Broke my leg and couldn't walk for about 30 days
  • Finally got my passport renewed ( God save the passport system in our country)
  • Got my first job offer
  • Had the best cup cakes of my life
  • Gave up of my public fear in restaurants


I am not going to write the sad parts because that's not how you start a new year. You smile and hope for the best :)

Which were your big moments in 2013 ?
